MTL - The Sweet Stepmother and Her Cute Cubs-Chapter 181
Xiaoroubao and Xiaotangyuan returned to the restaurant under renovation, and they were so happy watching the murals painted by their brothers that they wanted to participate.
Su Xiaoxiao asked them to draw grass and flowers at the bottom. Xiaoroubao was not interested in anything other than eating. He insisted on asking his sister to draw flowers and grass. He wanted to draw bird eggs in the grass and flowers.
Okay, it is also possible to pick up bird eggs in the grass.
Several "little long-term workers" continued to work after having eaten the afternoon tea sesame sugar cake prepared by Bai Lan.
The adults are responsible for making the dumplings. The more people there are, the greater the power. With a few hours of effort, hundreds of dumplings with three kinds of fillings have been wrapped.
Su Xiaoxiao began to adjust the sour soup, put in the casserole, chopped green onion, minced garlic, shrimp skin, sesame, salt, soy sauce, vinegar, sesame oil, spicy oil, a little more vinegar, boiled the dumplings, put two spoons of dumpling soup into the original food first, and finally put in Cook the dumplings evenly, then add an appropriate amount of diced pickles and radishes according to personal taste, and finally sprinkle a little coriander.
The stove specially set for the casserole is already hot. If it is not hot enough, you can put it on when adding the original soup and heat it until it is scalding hot, and leave the chopped green onion and parsley until it is out of the pot.
Spicy oil and mature vinegar can be increased or decreased according to personal taste. For example, if two little cubs eat it, Su Xiaoxiao will avoid the spicy oil. If three big cubs eat it, put a little less, and adults eat the normal amount of one spoonful. Uncle Yang has a strong taste, you can also add vinegar and spicy oil yourself.
Originally a simple bowl of dumplings, after being seasoned by Su Xiaoxiao, it was replaced with a casserole, and the name was changed to a name that greatly increased the appetite, which completely outperformed other people's dumplings.
Bai Lan sighed while eating: "Xiao Xiao, your brain is really good, you asked me to open a shop to sell dumplings just like others, just cook them and put them out of the pot, you need chili oil and vinegar to eat them yourself, but What kind of sour soup you mix and add a casserole, it will be the first one immediately, the taste is really different, and it can be used as the signature of our store, you are really... How can you say that word, you will rejuvenate your hands."
Lao Yang pointed to the sour soup dumplings painted on the wall with rice **** and said, "It's exactly the same."
Bai Lan looked at the past, and it was exactly the same. Every dumpling in the casserole painted by the rice ball was hung with bright red chili oil, and even the white sesame seeds and green coriander adorned with it could be seen clearly. Let Bai Lan seem to smell the unique aroma of spicy seed oil combined with mature vinegar, which makes people drool.
Bai Lan said, "Smile, let's just sell dumplings with sour soup. I'm guessing that you can come here. If you can eat such a bowl in winter, you really don't need to change the meat."
Su Xiaoxiao said: "No matter how delicious food you eat for three days, you will get tired of it. Instead of tiring yourself by doing so many tricks every day, it is better to sell different things every day, but only one thing, so that customers can eat new tricks every day. We can save our own minds and troubles, so let’s do it for now.”
Xiaoroubao ate each dumpling deliciously. He disagreed: "Mama, this dumpling is so delicious. I eat it for ten days in a row, and I don't get tired of eating ten bowls a day!"
Su Xiaoxiao looked at the little cub with a mouthful of sesame seeds, and wiped his mouth for him: "No one else can compare with you, you won't get tired of eating anything."
Xiaoroubao disagreed: "I don't like to eat bad food either. The wontons we ate that day were bad."
Indeed, on the first day after school, I took the little guy to eat small wontons. I don’t know if the store’s wontons have been stored for a long time, or the seasoning is not right. I don’t want to eat the small meat buns, but I don’t want to waste food, so I barely eat half a bowl. The Hancheng package I got down was rounded, and I no longer want to go to that restaurant to eat.
Su Xiaoxiao had tasted it, and it wasn't too bad, but it was true that it wasn't very tasty. The small dumplings were not very picky eaters, and she ate the few that her brother gave her.
Later, one day I took him to eat to make lumen noodles, and he also said that it was just so-so, barely finished eating, and would not want to go again in the future.
Later, when I ate a good dumpling, the little guy was reluctantly satisfied, and he still wanted to eat it today.
Su Xiaoxiao also learned from that day that Xiaoroubao still has a lot of requirements for food. He doesn't like to eat everything. He likes to eat it first if it is delicious. It's all delicious, he eats more.
Some dumplings were frozen outside and kept in Hancheng to eat at night. The "little long-term workers" still wanted to work overtime at night. Su Xiaoxiao felt that it was not bad for a day or two. The temperature at night was colder than during the day. Su Xiaoxiao let them Back on the kang to warm up, read books, tell stories and play games.
Xiao Zhuzi has been living here for a few days. When Xiao Wu sees a yard for sale, he will let him see it first. The old man said that he should listen to Xiao Zhuzi. I have also seen some families who dote on their children, but I have never seen such doted on children. They actually let a twelve-year-old child decide to buy a yard. However, Xiao Wu has a calm temperament, and the yard he doesn't like can always be seen at a glance. , I have seen two or three of them are not suitable, I can only wait slowly.
Xiao Tangyuan also wanted to play with her brothers, so Su Xiaoxiao asked her to play in their house, but she had to come back to sleep before ten o'clock.
Han Cheng arrived home exhausted after eight o'clock in the evening. Su Xiaoxiao gave him a bowl of sour soup dumplings. This is also Han Cheng's favorite food. The chili oil uses rapeseed oil, which seems to have a stronger flavor.
Su Xiaoxiao also told Han Cheng about the progress in the store.
Han Cheng nodded, took a dumpling and handed it to her to eat: "You business acumen is right to study economics, and you won't be able to become a generation of business tycoons in the future."
Su Xiaoxiao took half of her bite with his hand, shook her head and said no, Han Cheng ate the remaining half of her bite with some sour soup.
"I don't think so much now. This small shop can manage the wages of a few of them, and it's enough to feed a few cubs in the family. Let's talk about it later." Su said with a smile.
Now most of the small restaurants are married couples, and it is no problem to make a living, but Su Xiaoxiao has a lot of family members, and she never treats her mouth badly, so from the beginning, Su Xiaoxiao promised to give Bai Lan and Uncle Yang a fixed salary. Whether it is a loss or a profit, they take a fixed salary first and then calculate the dividend. As for her, she only needs to take care of the family's meals. They all know that Su Xiaoxiao has its own rules for handling affairs, saying that she is in charge of the children's meals, but she always She will pay for "additional meals" out of her own pocket. For example, for today's dumplings, what she said will not be included in the public account. She is a personable person. They can only silently remember her goodness, work hard, and help her take care of several children in return when she can't take care of her children.
When Han Cheng came back from the lab, he had to study for the postgraduate exam until late at night. Sometimes Su Xiaoxiao woke up from a sleep. He was still lighting the lights and fighting at night. Su Xiaoxiao was also distressed. or stew some soup for him to drink to replenish his body.
The next day, the cubs were busy again for a whole day, and finally painted all kinds of beautiful murals in the two rooms and the stove and the water tank. , entering the kitchen and the dining room is unique, which creates a huge gap. As long as the first customer enters the restaurant as beautiful as the art museum, even if the food tastes a little bad, it will definitely attract the first person who specially comes to see the murals. Two guests, and their food is guaranteed to taste better than others?
So Su Xiaoxiao is very confident in her restaurant.
The two days before the start of school fall on the weekend. Su Xiaoxiao plans to try to open the business for two days. If the two days are not based on the weekly menu, they will sell two days of casserole and sour soup dumplings to stun the taste buds of the guests. This is a small meat bun. Being able to eat ten bowls of delicious food every day for ten days in a row, Su Xiaoxiao is very confident in taking it to the forefront.
What's more important is to prepare the dishes. As long as the dumplings are wrapped in advance and the ingredients are prepared in advance, the dumplings can be cooked as soon as they are put in the pot, which is really convenient and hassle-free.
As for the recipe, Su Xiaoxiao asked a few "little long-time workers" to copy a few more copies, and also asked them to draw a lot of leaflets. The "little long-time workers" added their own creativity as much as possible. The five thumbs recommended, he insisted to draw five thumbs, Xiaozhuzi likes Mala Tang the most, he painted three red peppers, and the small rice ball likes braised pork rice the most, so he painted a few small ones at the back. Rice balls, adzuki buns likes claypot rice with preserved meat, so he draws a few adzuki bean buns and so on.
On the first day of the trial operation, the first task was to distribute flyers to let everyone know the existence of their restaurant. The cubs also designed the flyers of "Three Meals and Four Seasons" very distinctively. The flyers are actually not much bigger than bookmarks. The name and address of the store, and a few cubs also drew a small map and painted landmark buildings, so that no one would get lost when they saw it.
On the eve of the opening of Capital University, Su Xiaoxiao went to report in advance, and a few cubs volunteered to go to the university gate to distribute flyers. After such a short walk in the cold winter and the twelfth lunar month, one by one was cold and flushed. Han Cheng took Su Xiaoxiao to the freshman registration office. When reporting, he gave his watch to the rice ball and asked them to stare at the watch. He was only allowed to stay at the school gate for half an hour, and waited for them in a place where he had to avoid the wind no matter how much he posted.
There are not many flyers drawn by the cubs. Their goal is to bring five people to the store for dinner today.
Therefore, in the cold winter and twelfth lunar month, under the banner of Capital University "Warmly Welcome the 77th Class of New Classmates", there were a few cubs wrapped like zongzi, and when they saw someone walking in, they began to introduce their restaurant and handed them a flyer.
The new classmates were completely confused when they got the brochures that looked like works of art. My capital is really talented, and even the brochures of a small restaurant are so exquisite. The teenagers in my big capital are really talented, and they are so young. They have already come out to make a living, and they are all clear thinking and eloquent. They are really not comparable to people from such small places.
In short, no matter whether you go to "Three Meals and Four Seasons" for dinner, you are very impressed with this restaurant. When you go back to the dormitory, you will use the leaflet as the first discussion point to communicate with your new roommates. Only one person in each dormitory will take it. When you arrive at this leaflet, you will be eager to pass it around. Some dormitories get two, and they find that the fonts and pictures are different, and each has its own merits. The students who are curious have already gone to other dormitories to collect the others and see what is still there. It's not the same. As a result, just relying on a few exquisite flyers can get unexpected publicity effects.
More knowledgeable classmates found that the calligraphy and paintings on this flyer are actually in the same line as the calligraphy and paintings of the few geniuses who were serialized in the daily newspaper, and the flyers happened to be three children! This discovery was incredible. The classmates hurried back to find someone to confirm, but by the time they ran back to find someone, they were no longer there under the red banner fluttering in the wind.
If they found a treasure, they put this beautiful little leaflet as a favorite bookmark and put it in their favorite books, and they planned to settle down and follow the map to find out the "three meals and four seasons" above.
Of course, these are all later stories, and Han Cheng and Su Xiaoxiao didn't know it.
Han Cheng took Su Xiaoxiao to the registration office and rushed back to the laboratory. Su Xiaoxiao filled in a lot of documents with the admission notice, ID card, household registration certificate, grain and oil relationship certificate, party organization relationship, letter of introduction, etc. Form, get their own food stamps and subsidies, because if you don't live on campus, you have to make an application report for living on campus, etc.
Su Xiaoxiao rushed back to pick up the cubs, walking too fast and almost bumped into an oncoming freshman halfway.
The little girl with dark skin and a red face, with a round face, was carrying a big quilt and covered her whole body with pots and pans. She smiled shyly with her big round eyes, and asked Su Xiaoxiao in a non-standard Mandarin with a local accent. : "Senior sister, do you know where the registration office for freshmen is?"
On weekdays, Su Xiaoxiao would definitely help send the little girl over, but today she was really in a hurry, so she pointed the little girl in the direction: "Over there, but I'm not a senior sister, I'm also a freshman this year. "
The little girl gave a "Ah~~", thinking that there are educated youths in her village who were admitted to university much older than Su Xiaoxiao, so it's not surprising: "Okay, thank you."
Su smiled and said, "Aren't there any brothers and sisters at the reception? You can ask them to help you with so many things."
The little girl shook her head: "I didn't see anyone when I came in."
Su Xiaoxiao looked at it, and reached out to summon a volunteer with a red armband: "Senior brother, please take this junior sister to the freshman registration office."
The volunteer senior brother trotted over and took the things from her hand: "Welcome little junior sister, please come here."
The little girl bowed and thanked: "My name is Mu Xiaocao, I'm from the Hui people, it's a pleasure to meet you."
Su Xiaoxiao smiled back: "My name is Su Xiaoxiao, and it's nice to meet you too."
Su Xiaoxiao's heart was attached to the cubs who were still blowing at the gate, and soon forgot about this little episode, and quickly ran to the door to take the shivering cubs home.
