Chapter 122: Chapter 122 Deliberately Coming to Vent Anger (3)_1

By now, the sky was fully bright, and more people were appearing on the streets. They had never seen noodles made by this method before and were quite astonished.

Pei Qin was calling out to attract customers with her loud, clear voice, and soon people came to inquire.

They found the noodles odd, but with the addition of bone broth and a generous portion of meat toppings, it seemed worth five wen money a bowl, so they sat down and ordered a bowl of the spicy meat slices.

With business coming in, San Ya and the others were very excited and pleased. Lady Fang quickly served a bowl of noodles, and San Ya smiled as she brought it over.

"The flavor of these noodles is strange, yet it’s surprisingly delicious to eat!"

As soon as the word "delicious" was heard, onlookers gathered around.

Sun Tiezhu and Zou Xing went back to their work, while Grandma Sun stayed behind, saying she wanted to see how things were going and would lend a hand if it got too busy. She adamantly refused to leave. Seeing the crowd’s interest, she praised the noodles, "It’s called He Lao noodles; you’ve never eaten anything like it! The taste is savory, the portions are large, and there’s so much meat! Today is the first day of sale, and we didn’t bring a lot of dough, so if you want to try, you’d better hurry!"

The first customer to finish his bowl drank up the soup as well and sighed, "Such a flavorful dish! Delicious! Never seen noodles made like this He Lao noodles before! Especially the meat slices inside; they don’t turn into mush when chewed but are tender and tasty!"

People are either driven by curiosity or scared of new things.

Getting the first customer to eat, the second and third quickly followed, and more people started to line up behind them.

The three tables quickly filled up.

Seeing the increasing crowd, Lady Fang became somewhat flustered.

However, Pei Qin stood steadily by the pot, taking the dough and pressing noodles, nimbly performing each action. After boiling them, she fished them out with long chopsticks into the bowl. Lady Fang only needed to add the bone broth and toppings, while San Ya served the customers and collected the money.

Grandma Sun helped Si Ya clean up the eaten bowls and utensils, washing them in a basin.

Pei Houli also came to the market to sell his wares. Nowadays, his products weren’t selling well, but having made them, even if he didn’t receive other work, he could at least earn a bit of money for salt.

Seeing a crowd gathered under the tree at the end of the street, some wiping their mouths while walking and praising the deliciousness of the He Lao noodles, and talking about how they had never encountered such an odd method of making noodles before, Pei Houli thought it tasted really good.

It turned out to be a noodle stall that attracted so many people, doing incredibly good business! Pei Houli thought to himself as he headed toward the heart of the marketplace.

They were busy until the sun climbed high, and all the brought dough was sold out. There were still people waiting who didn’t get to eat, leaving them feeling regretful and dissatisfied.

"I still have half a bag of flour at home. Why don’t we use my flour for now, just for today!?" Grandma Sun suggested.

"Many thanks, Auntie! But as Qinqin said, we’re only selling this much and no more," Lady Fang said, smiling as she wiped the sweat from her forehead.

Grandma Sun felt somewhat regretful seeing the persistent interest, as that meant missing out on selling a dozen or so, maybe even dozens of bowls. But she also thought Pei Qin was very smart, and there must be a reason behind her words.

"The less they can eat it, the more they’ll think about it and want it. Next time, they’ll come early to line up!" Pei Qin explained with a smile as she began to pack up.

Grandma Sun nodded in realization and told Lady Fang, "You’re truly blessed! To have Xiao Pei as such a smart and capable girl!"

Lady Fang shared in the pride.

After packing up the tables, chairs, and stove, Zou Xing and Sun Tiezhu came to help carry everything back home. They asked Pei Qin, "Are you coming every day, or just on market days?"

Given the situation, Pei Qin actually wanted to come every day, "On non-market days, there aren’t many people on the street, and setting up just to sell for a short while during lunchtime won’t yield much, besides needing to put up the stall." She wanted to set up in the county town, but unfortunately, they didn’t have a cart. Even if they borrowed a cart, pushing it dozens of miles to the county town in one go would be exhausting.
