Chapter 218 Selling Greenhouse Vegetables
"That's something that can't be helped. If my sister finds out, she won't blame you."
Xiao Ruiyan knew that he had brought up his mother's sadness, so he had no choice but to change the subject and said: "Mother, the girl I know, she is very similar to my sister, and her handwriting is exactly the same as my sister's."
As soon as the voice fell, everyone was shocked.
Tong Shuxuan asked in surprise, "What? A girl who looks like your sister?"
"Yeah, the way she speaks, her handwriting, her temper and personality are very similar."
Tong Shuxuan excitedly said: "Then could she be the reincarnation of your sister?"
Xiao Rui said: "No, she is ten years old this year. When I met her, she was already nine years old. It cannot be the reincarnation of my sister."
Tong Shuxuan was a little disappointed.
Xiao Rui said: "I will take you to meet her some other day. She is really powerful, knows many things, and is very kind."
Xiao Ruishen said: "The things that are made are all delicious in the world. She is the girl I just mentioned who is especially good at cooking and making dim sum."
Tong Shuxuan couldn't help laughing. She patted her younger son's head and said, "Okay, I'll listen to you."
…
After Xiao Ruiyan had arranged all the family members, he was about to find Dugu Huanxu when he heard someone calling him behind him.
Turning around, he saw his father's concubine walking over with her daughter.
Xiao Rui said: "What's the matter with Aunt Qing?"
Aunt Qing said: "My lord, I just want to ask you, where does the girl you mentioned who looks like the eldest lady live?"
Xiao Rui said: "Why are you asking this? Do you want to find her?"
Aunt Qing said: "I...I just want to meet her, learn how to cook from her, and please your father."
She gave birth to a daughter. Although the master was kind to her and never forgot to take her with him when he fled, she also knew that she was just a concubine and might be sold at any time.
She has heard people say that if you want to grab someone's heart, you have to grab someone's stomach. The master liked her cooking very much before, but now that he has eaten the dishes from King Li's fiefdom, it is estimated that eating her dishes will definitely taste the same. , and she also felt that her previous skills would not be able to show her skills in the future.
Xiao Rui said: "I can't tell you this for now, I'm her friend, and she's been busy all the time, busy doing business with His Royal Highness Li Wang, so I don't think she has much time to teach you, so you can temporarily dismiss this idea."
After speaking, he lifted his foot and left.
Aunt Qing immediately tightened the embroidered handkerchief in her hand, and said bitterly: "I don't have time, I guess it's because I'm afraid that if I win the master's favor, I will give birth to a son and become a threat to him."
Xiao Rurong said: "Auntie, since eldest brother doesn't want to talk about it, let's forget it. We have only come here, and we have not yet established a firm foothold. We have to rely on elder brother and his friend Prince Li for everything. If you offend him, we will It's not going to be a good life, the family's money is now in the hands of the eldest brother and mother, it's more important to please him."
"I know." Aunt Qing said: "Don't be idle recently, just ask me in the mansion if you have nothing to do, I have heard that Prince Li's age is about the same as yours, if you can marry Prince Li , even if it's just a concubine's room, then I will be guaranteed in the future."
Xiao Rurong said: "But Auntie, I just came here, and if I take the initiative, my mother will not be happy."
"Hmph!" Aunt Qing said, "It's fine if she's not happy, as long as we're happy. Well, you just do as I said, you can rest well today, ask questions tomorrow, and Auntie will help you too." Yes, got it?"
Xiao Rurong said: "Understood."
Tong Shuxuan was about to rest when a maid came to her side and told her everything that Aunt Qing and Xiao Rurong had said.
Tong Shuxuan said: "If they want to do it, let them do it. It is Xiao Rurong's ability to be favored by Li Wangshizi. It's just that Li Wangshizi is only twelve years old this year, and he is His Royal Highness. I can't see her as a concubine."
"Ma'am is right."
The next day, it snowed heavily again, and the temperature was much lower than yesterday.
Nangong Anshan came to the door of the cooking oil workshop early in the morning, and saw that there were more customers buying oil today than in the previous few days.
Zhou Zhenyang said: "I don't know why, the weather is getting colder and colder these days, and the number of people buying oil is not less, but more."
Nangong Anshan said: "It's normal, you should have heard about it. There are wars everywhere outside now, only the fiefdom of King Li has not yet started the war. Many people have fled here. Those who have the ability to escape here, There must be a lot of rich people, they will never forget after eating stir-fried vegetables, and it is normal to send people here to buy oil."
Zhou Zhenyang said: "Then we should be able to sell these vegetables smoothly today, right?"
"it should be OK."
Yesterday afternoon, she sent someone to build a simple shed at the entrance of the cooking oil workshop, and put vegetables picked from the greenhouse in advance, and wanted to try selling vegetables at the door of the house.
If the effect is good, she will sell it at the door of her house in the future. If the effect is not good, she will sell it in the city tomorrow.
Soon, the vegetable seller put all the vegetables on display, and when he saw someone coming to buy oil, he started shouting.
"Vegetables are on sale, fresh vegetables are on sale, everyone, come and have a look."
"Delicious fresh vegetables, all kinds of fresh vegetables, come and have a look."
The people who came to buy oil were either servants of rich families or people with better conditions. When they heard that there were fresh vegetables, they all walked over.
Seeing that the vegetables are all green and shiny, some of them have seen it before, and some of them have not seen it before, and they are immediately surprised.
One person asked curiously: "In this weather, why do you still sell so many fresh vegetables here?"
The steward who sells vegetables is called You Kangsheng, who was carefully selected by Nangong Anshan. He said: "These are all grown in my little boss's house. Ladies and gentlemen, would you like some?"
The man asked again: "The weather is so cold that not even a single weed grows. How did you grow it?"
You Kangsheng said: "Guest officer, I'm sorry, the master won't let you speak, and the younger ones don't dare to speak. Please be considerate, guest officer."
"All right."
You Kangsheng said again: "We guarantee that these vegetables are edible. If you buy these uncommon vegetables, we will teach you how to do them and the things you need to pay attention to."
Another person asked: "How much do you charge for a catty of these dishes?"
You Kangsheng said: "Each dish costs fifteen cents a catty."
Someone exclaimed: "Fifteen cents a catty? This dish is too expensive. Add a few more copper coins, and I can buy meat."
