Su Yan smiled and said nothing. It was getting late. She had to be early when selling pancakes, otherwise there would be no room to sell them.
She took the green onions she had sorted last night, washed them and chopped them into thin pieces. Then she grabbed the pickles, washed them out, drained them and put them on the cutting board and chopped them into thin pieces.
Qin An here wrung out the handkerchief and put it on the rope, grabbed the flour and started kneading it. He was very strong and kneaded it into dough in a short time.
Su Yan took a look and said, "Cut it into small balls."
Qin An said "hmm" and saw her hair falling down from the corner of his eye. He wiped his hands and put them behind her ears. He quickly washed his hands and continued cutting.
As soon as the sun rose outside, the two of them headed to town carrying hot pancakes on their backs. There was a carriage at home, which was a lot more convenient.
I met many people from the village on the road, but they both ignored them and left directly.
There was still less than half the journey, when I saw Jiang Caifu and his wife from a distance, "It's the eldest sister and the others, riding together."
When they got closer, she called out, "Sister, come up and let's go to town together."
Goudanfu's mother was sweating all over her head. She turned around and saw them. She wiped her sweat and said, "You guys are going to town too." After saying that, he didn't show any politeness to them and got on the carriage.
Jiang Caifu looked at the horse with some envy, "How much money can I buy for it? When my family has money, I will buy it too."
"Don't. If you drink like that, you might fall into a ditch someday." Goudandamang quickly interrupted his thoughts.
Su Yan outside smiled and said, "The carriage costs fifteen taels, so it's more convenient to buy one."
"But if Brother Jiang wants to buy it, he has to give up drinking."
Jiang Caifu likes to drink some wine. When you are drunk, you lose consciousness. He got drunk a few days ago and fell asleep at the door next door.
Su Yan came out and saw it and called Goudan his mother.
Goudanfang nodded and said: "If you stop drinking, we can still buy not only such a good one, but also a bad one."
Hairpin has made a lot of money recently.
Just thinking that the Qin family gave such a good job, they wanted to go to town to buy a set of clothes for the two of them.
Jiang Caifu said unhappily: "If a man doesn't drink, his life in this world will be in vain. You are right, brother of the Qin family."
"Qin An doesn't drink much, do you think he's like you?" Goudan gave him a look.
Qin An didn't say anything while listening. He looked at the woman next to him from the corner of his eye. The sun was rising now. He took the straw hat on the side and put it on Su Yan.
"Go inside when it's hot."
Su Yan fiddled with her straw hat and said, "It's much cooler with the blowing outside."
Hearing this, Qin An didn't say anything. He arrived in the town in about a quarter of an hour. Goudan and his wife got off the carriage, "The carriage is faster. We may have to walk for a while."
"Sister, thank you."
Su Yan said you're welcome, "If we're not in a hurry, let's go back together."
"No, we have to go to my parents' house later." Goudan didn't want to trouble them too much, so he quickly added: "We're leaving."
After they left, Su Yan looked at the man next to her and said, "We sell at the entrance of the town, and the carriages are also released."
Hearing this, Qin An nodded, then tied the carriage to the big tree nearby, then took down the bench, set up a dustpan on it, and put the pancakes inside.
Then cover it with a cloth to prevent dust from sticking to it.
Su Yan took a pancake, cut it with washed scissors, and put it in a bowl.
After doing this, she looked at the people passing by and shouted, "Taste the delicious pancakes for free. If they are not delicious, no money will be required."
When I heard that no money was required, many bargain-hunting women came over and asked, "Can you eat without any money?"
Su Yan handed the bowl to her and said generously: "Try it for free, no money required."
Immediately, several women reached out to take it. Seeing this, Su Yan generously took another pancake folder and said, "I have been selling pancakes for four or five years. I just moved back from the county town. I am not expensive. I pay three yuan a piece."
"If you have children at home, you can buy some food."
After the women tasted it, they felt that it tasted really good. They hesitated and said, "Then I want four, and I will buy them home for my children."
"Okay, sir, give her four."
Su Yan turned around and went to the carriage to get some washed leaves to wrap for her, "Sister, eat it as soon as you get home. It won't be as crispy and fragrant after being stored for a long time."
The eldest sister counted twelve pennies and gave them to her, "Okay, can you get me the one on the side? It looks bigger."
Hearing this, Qin An gave her another one and praised in a low voice: "The pancakes made by my wife are delicious."
Su Yan couldn't help but laugh. After collecting the money, another aunt asked, "Is that red pancake also three cents?"
"That one is more expensive, five cents each, and it contains more meat filling." Su Yan only made twenty red pancakes, and if they sell well, she will make more later.
Seeing that the woman was hesitant, she took one, cut it into half and gave it to her, "Try it, if it tastes good, you can buy it again."
The woman smiled crookedly at the corner of her mouth, "Young lady knows how to do business, you will know whether it tastes good or not after you eat it." After saying that, she ate it in one bite.
The red pancake is not as crispy as that pancake, but it has more meat inside and tastes much more delicious.
"I want two red ones and two shortbread cookies."
"Okay, sixteen articles in total." Su Yan gave Qin An a few more leaves.
After a while, the two of them sold a hundred yuan, and today they made fifty pancakes, twenty red ones and thirty crisp ones.
There will be about a dozen shortbread left.
Su Yan wiped her sweat with a handkerchief, turned around and saw a lot of sweat on the man's forehead, "Bend down a little."
Qin An immediately bent over and watched the woman wiping his sweat. He couldn't help but kiss her. Fortunately, he moved quickly and no one else saw her.
He said with some joy: "Daughter-in-law, get in the carriage and have a rest. I will sell the rest."
Su Yan gave him a look and said, "There aren't many left. They will be sold out soon."
Suddenly a middle-aged man's voice rang out, "Are there any more pancakes? I want three more. My son wants to eat more, so I rushed over to buy some."
"Give me something cheaper, three to eight cents."
Su Yan didn't feel any less, so she explained: "Brother, I can't help it. You've eaten it too. There's a lot of stuffing in it. If it's too little, you really can't sell it."
"Okay, I'll give you half a pancake tomorrow."
In this way, he will probably come to buy cakes tomorrow.
Upon hearing this, the middle-aged man was of course happy. He gave him half a pancake and half a penny, "Okay, wrap it up for me."
"This is the first time I have eaten your pancakes. They are so delicious. Will they be sold at the entrance of the town in the future?"
"I don't know yet, but they are all sold in the town. If brother doesn't see us at the entrance of the town, he will go to the town for a while."
Su Yanli wrapped the cake for him, collected the copper coins and put them into the bag.
The bright sun made it difficult to open one's eyes. "Mr. sir, go get the umbrella from the carriage."
Qin An said "hmm" and then got on the carriage to get an umbrella.
At the same time, three big men came over casually. They probably saw Su Yan, a young woman, and said in a frivolous tone: "Little lady, are you selling pancakes?"
"Don't you understand the rules of giving to Wu Wen?" After saying this, his eyes were fixed on Su Yan's face. The little lady looked so pretty.
"Call me brother, I'll charge less, or if you let me touch it, I won't charge you any money for this stall."
Before Su Yan could say anything, Qin An got off the carriage and stared deeply at the three men asking for money from the stall.
He said with an ugly face: "What are the rules?" After saying this, he punched the man closest to him angrily.
