Chapter 100 Salty Soy Milk
"You two sisters, one is sweeter than the other." Sun Xingfu smiled happily first, then said, "Come on, you can sit in the house first, it's early in the morning, you haven't had breakfast yet."
"Let's bring the pickles here first. Uncle Sun, please order them. After ordering, I will go to the breakfast shop on the street with my sister to try it." Mu Xiu's expression was so impatient that Sun Xingfu was amused.
"You are so happy to come this time. Walking south of this street, turn left at the third intersection, a new breakfast shop was opened, which specializes in salty soy milk and corn cakes. The boss and his family of four came back from another place. As soon as this policy was relaxed, everyone who left home had returned, and two breakfast shops were opened on the street. However, I like the salty soy milk from that house." Sun Xingfu swallowed his saliva while speaking.
"Uncle Sun, have you ever eaten Hu La Soup?" Mu Xiu couldn't help asking when she heard the salty soy milk. In her memory, salty tofu brains to people in Jiangsu and Zhejiang are just like Hu La Soup to people in the Central Plains, and bean juice to people in the capital, each with its own flavor.
But it is also interesting. It is said that people in Jiangnan like to eat sweet foods and add sugar to stir-fry dishes. However, people in southern China like to eat salty foods when eating rice dumplings, and even soy milk like to drink salty soy milk.
"I was in another place before, and I heard from friends from other places say that, but I haven't eaten it. Do you know so much?" Sun Xingfu looked curious.
"I heard an aunt from Zhongyuan in the provincial capital hospital talk about how to make it. I'll try it when I go home to see if it can be made." Mu Xiu's mother-in-law was from Zhongyuan, and she could also make it. Although the taste is not as good as the authentic Xiaoyao Hu La Soup, it is also a very good breakfast now.
"Okay, it's done, let me taste it." Sun Xingfu spoke while lifting the lid to look at the pickles.
Since he asked Huang Cui to try the pickles left by Mu Xiu last time, neighbors even came over more than a dozen streets. No matter who tasted them, they all praised them for their delicious taste. Everyone was scrambling to buy them, but they were told that they would have to wait ten days before they could be sold.
Who knew that Mu Xiu had reached the agreed time but did not come. It was already three days late from the agreed time. People came to ask Sun Xingfu every day. They were thinking about going back to Yingwu Village to find Mu Xiu, but Mu Xiu came.
"Huang Cui, take out the remaining sixty dollars for Mu Xiu." Sun Xingfu saw that the pickles he sent were fine, so he called his wife to come out in the inner room.
"Here you come." Huang Cui's voice sounded, and it took a while before it came out. The water marks on her face had not dried yet. It seemed that she had just gotten up and was just washing her face.
"Mu Xiu is here." Huang Cui showed a smile on her face, and took out sixty dollars from the bag behind the counter and handed it to Mu Xiu.
"Thank you, Aunt Sun." Mu Xiu took the money and put it in his pocket without counting it.
Sun Xingfu nodded. This girl is so happy.
"Uncle Sun, I will take this pickle jar away next time I come..." Mu Xiu said embarrassedly as he watched Sun Xingfu move the pickle jar into the house.
"If you don't say it, I'll forget that I've washed and dried the dozen porcelain jars you left last time. Have you taken them away this time?" Sun Xingfu asked with a smile.
"Take it away...but now I'll put it here first. When we're leaving, we'll come over to get it. Uncle Sun, Aunt Sun, then my sister and I will try the salty soy milk first."
"You just walk along here, go quickly, don't be hungry." Sun Xingfu smiled and pointed at the direction...
The two sisters took Li Pandi away from the pickle shop. Before they could get to the seat, Mu Xiaocao stopped and said to Mu Xiu's eyes with some confusion: "Let's not eat that salty soy milk, waste money. Just buy two corn cakes in a while, and then buy some oil, salt, sauce and vinegar."
"Sister, don't worry about money. We can resist hunger. We can't let Brother Pan be hungry too. Little girl, you're growing up." Mu Xiu wanted to see how the breakfast shop business first and then how it tasted.
"You make money, you can do whatever you say." Mu Xiaocao said angrily.
"Let's go, sister, this money is earned, not saved, people should live in the present."
"Mom, I'm hungry." Li Pandi's voice also sounded timidly at this moment.
"Let's go, my second aunt will take you to have something delicious." Mu Xiu held Li Pandi's small hand, and the big and small figures trotted forward with laughter.
Mu Xiaoshu looked at the backs of the two of them and couldn't help but raise the corners of his mouth. This sister really felt very different from her previous life.
The three of them soon arrived at the breakfast stall that Sun Xingfu mentioned. It was a shop about 20 square meters, with several tables and chairs inside. At the door were two large pots, one was filled with fresh and fragrant soy milk, and the other was a steamer, which contained steamed buns made of soy milk residue and cornmeal.
The house was already full. Mu Xiu and the others stood outside for a while before they had a seat. After Mu Xiaocao and Li Pandi sat down, Mu Xiu walked to the front and said, "Boss, let's have three bowls of salty soy milk, two big cakes and a steamed bun."
"Okay." The boss quickly scooped up a spoon of soy milk, put pickles, soy sauce, and chopped green vegetables into it, and handed it to Mu Xiu.
Mu Xiu went back and forth twice before he took all the things on the table.
"Mom, it's so delicious." Li Pandi took a sip, looking satisfied.
"Be careful, you won't be afraid of being hot." Mu Xiaocao gently stirred with a spoon to let the soy milk cool down quickly.
"I really didn't expect that in the past 1979, the people in the county were so rich, and they all ate breakfast outside. Our village was still so poor." Mu Xiaocao muttered while stirring, and started to eat.
"Fresh, fragrant, moist, smooth, tender, thick." Mu Xiu said these six words popped up in his mind. Although she used to drink salty soy milk, she had to admit that the taste was really good. But she still felt that the Hula soup was better and more ingredient. She was eating while observing the door.
When Mu Xiu came in, he looked at the time. It was exactly 8:00. At 8:30, in these twenty minutes, there were six people eating in the store, and five portions of soy milk were taken away with them with pots. Seeing that the traffic of customers was not large, why did Sun Xingfu say that the business here was booming?
"Boss, how much does it cost?" Mu Xiu finished drinking a few sips and walked to the boss's side.
"Miss, three bowls of soy milk cost 30 cents, two big cakes cost 4 cents, and one cent of bean dregs cost 1 cent, and a total of 30 cents." The boss said with a smile.
