Chapter 465 Sweet Water Shop Opens
"This is the first time I've eaten an old turtle in my life. The taste is indeed different from other meats, especially this piece."
Zhou Mingqi scraped it and picked out a piece of turtle meat.
"Second sister, this piece of meat is the skirt of an old turtle shell. It really tastes better than other meats."
The edge of the meat has a soft and sticky texture, which is not found in ordinary meat.
"It's called the hem. I like this part, it's like the skin on the elbow."
Zhou Mingshu smiled and said, "If you like it, eat two more pieces. When we are free, we can put the fish basket down in the river. We can just catch whatever we want to eat. It won't be a big hassle."
In fact, she also thought in her heart that since her second sister liked to eat the skirt edge, she would definitely like to eat things like jellyfish and konjac shreds.
Although she has these ingredients in her system, it is still difficult for her to produce them continuously.
Forget it, let’s wait and see.
As the saying goes, live by the mountain, eat from the mountain; live by the sea, eat from the sea. They grow up near the mountain and so far away from the sea, so naturally they will miss out on a lot of delicious things.
They finished all the lunch.
After working all morning, Zhou Mingshu finally had time to rest.
Even the pots, pans, and utensils were washed by the eldest and second sisters.
She milked the goat and spent the rest of the time resting in the house and studying the recipes for the sweet water shop.
Once the spring potato planting is finished, the sweet water shop will open, so we can’t be lazy on this.
She entrusted all the paintings she had previously painted to various "dealers" one by one, asking them to hang them in their own shops and use the traffic to promote them.
When the time comes to open the business, she won't have to worry about not being able to continue her business.
The dinner in the evening was very simple.
A dish of fish soup, a dish of spicy snails, and a dish of pork belly stewed with vermicelli will make do.
They are all home-cooked dishes. Although they taste good, everyone is used to them, so they are not particularly amazing.
-
In the blink of an eye, it is time for the peonies to bloom.
Old Zhou’s sweet soup shop opened with drums and gongs.
Whether it is the courtyard of Lao Zhou's family, the bamboo house in Tianshuipu, or the vegetable garden full of flowers, they are all hung with lanterns and ribbons, looking festive.
The opening banquet was also a buffet.
There is a row of tables filled with sweet water, and a row of tables filled with dishes.
Take whatever you want to eat and use it whenever you want.
Zhou Mingqin was ordered to stay at home and not go out.
After all, it's a new store and it's crowded. It would be bad if something unexpected happened and we got bumped and squeezed.
So she could only make clothes for her children at home.
Zhou Mingqi, Zhou Mingshu, and girls about the same age as Xu Lingshan and Wang Xiaodan all came to help and started working.
Not only do I have to introduce the dishes to the guests, but I also have to be careful and ask them to refill their food at any time. At the end of the day, I feel like I can't even lift my arms.
Qi Rui ate what he should eat, drank what he should drink, and dealt with all the friends he should deal with.
So he took Rufeng for a stroll in the flower garden. After all, there were still too many people in Tianshuipu, and his position was too high. If he stayed there all the time, it would be difficult for the people below to move around.
Moreover, he could no longer withstand the looks from the women and girls, so he tried to avoid them whenever possible.
Although there were fewer people in the flower garden, there were still some people, all girls who came to pick flowers.
Qi Rui saw that all the girls were wearing peonies in their hair, so he picked a pink peony that was growing very well and took it back.
Mingshu is much more beautiful than these girls. If she wears this beautiful peony flower, her face will be even more charming.
Zhou Mingshu was preparing sweet water in the kitchen when suddenly a shadow appeared behind her. Before she could react, a heavy object appeared on her hair.
"Sir? Why are you in the kitchen? Are there too many people in the front?"
"It's boring, I don't want to stay here any longer, I saw a little girl outside picking peonies and wearing them on her head, they look very pretty, so I picked one for you, it looks very pretty."
Zhou Mingshu touched the peony with his hand and looked at it in the water in the bucket. It was indeed a beautiful flower.
"It is indeed very beautiful, thank you, sir."
"What are you thanking me for? These are your flowers. I am just offering them to you as a token of my appreciation."
After saying that, the two of them smiled at each other and continued to work.
However, with Qi Rui's help, Zhou Mingshu's work finally became a little easier.
My cousin Chen Fan was busy in the lobby. He was wiping the table for the ladies with a handkerchief. While he was busy, he was introducing to them the raw materials and nutritional benefits of each cup of sweet water.
Such benefits as beautifying the skin, promoting sleep, aiding the stomach and intestines, and benefiting blood circulation and skin...all the benefits of sweet water are introduced in detail.
After listening to his long speech, the women were all enlightened. They didn't expect that this little sweet water could have such an effect. Women all love beauty, so they all kept these words in their hearts.
It took Chen Fan half a month to memorize the names of these sweet waters as well as their ingredients and functions.
Now he can answer the guests' questions fluently, and all his efforts are worthwhile.
After the entire banquet, they not only received a lot of praise, but also attracted a lot of guests.
Those guests who came here because of its reputation were full of praise and made it clear that they would come again in the future.
Those ladies also thought that the sweet water tasted good. It was truly an elegant thing to have delicious food to eat and beautiful flower gardens to admire!
They feel very honored to entertain their close friends in such a place.
The peony garden is full of blooming flowers, white, pink, red, yellow... every flower is so beautiful that it is impossible to appreciate them all!
Hearing that the shopkeeper was selling fresh flowers, they picked some flowers to wear on their hair. Some of them even picked some to take home. They were all very happy.
Of course, Zhou Mingshu also made some money from fresh cut flowers, selling vases, and soaps and ointments.
After the banquet, Zhou Mingshu gave each household a copy of the prepared flower blossom schedule and sweet water menu.
In this way, guests can know at a glance what flowers to enjoy and when, which is very convenient for them.
Guests can come according to their needs and time and enjoy the flowers they want.
Today is the first day that Tianshuipu opens, and the Zhou family specially chose a day when the mine is closed.
I didn't expect that even with the whole family involved, I would still be so busy.
But overall it feels pretty good.
Although the banquet was free and you could eat as much as you wanted, other things brought in a lot of income.
In particular, soap ointments have higher profits, and fresh cut flowers also made a small profit.
When counting the silver at night, Old Mrs. Zhou got two big bags of silver change, and she was so happy that she couldn't stop smiling.
"San Ya, you are the one who opened this sweet shop, so I'm leaving it to you to run. You have to keep the money. I have a headache managing the restaurant's money. If you open another shop, I will be so worried that I won't be able to sleep at night."
"Grandma, having too much money has become a trouble now? Haha." Zhou Mingshu laughed at her.
