Chapter 167 Taking the Lead
When Chen Yuzhu went to work the next day, she saw a five-star review left on her shop, with the review being extremely boastful.
She was very happy and ran over to show Xia Shiyu her phone, saying, "Boss, boss, look, our shop has five-star reviews!"
Xia Shiyu glanced at it and found that the nine-grid photos were quite good, capturing the freshness and juiciness of the vegetables. Even the final dish of maocai looked delicious. This was the first five-star review she had received besides grapes.
Xia Shiyu nodded. "That's good. It seems that customers are starting to discover that our other dishes are also delicious. We'll definitely get more and more orders in the future."
Chen Yuzhu nodded, pleased. "Don't worry, boss, our dishes will definitely be even more popular."
After she finished speaking, she went to work with great enthusiasm. She was very satisfied with her current work environment and hoped that Xia Shiyu's business would get better and better.
After receiving this five-star review, other people who followed the store also noticed it.
Someone forwarded a screenshot of the five-star reviews from the store to the group.
"Look, family, the other vegetables in this shop look pretty good too. At least they look delicious, and the prices are relatively cheap."
"It looks pretty good, but will it have the same effect as grapes?"
"I'm afraid not. This comment only mentions the taste, not any other special functions."
"Never mind then, I'll wait for the grapes. I just want to eat grapes to help me with my insomnia."
"Me too, the other dishes don't have any special effects, so they're just so-so."
"I don't think so. If grapes have such good effects, other vegetables, even if they're not that miraculous, are still good for your health. Plus, if they taste good, I'd be willing to buy them."
"Me too, I'll buy one too. There's no limit to one purchase per account right now, you can buy multiple times."
"You really trust this store's reviews that much? What if they're shills?"
"Oh, you don't understand. Their grapes are so effective that they were even broadcast live. They don't need to lie to us at all."
"Yes, yes, it's the seller's market now. All we can do is hope that the shop owner will add more grapes."
"That's true."
Regardless of what was discussed later, a considerable number of people did choose to buy vegetables from Xia's shop. Chen Yuzhu saw the number of orders in the backend constantly increasing and quickly began processing them one by one.
Meanwhile, after that grape live stream, Xia's shop gradually gained some popularity, and many marketing accounts and internet celebrities would edit some related videos to attract traffic.
When Jiang Cha first came across these videos, she took them as a joke. But after seeing them multiple times, she couldn't help but pay attention and even searched for them online. She later discovered that the reviews were actually quite good.
The more she looked at the grapes, the more tempted she became. She couldn't buy grapes herself, but Xia Shiyu had now set up a special grape hotline. Insomnia patients could get priority to buy them; all they had to do was upload their medical records.
Others can also buy it, but the competition will be even fiercer. She can't compete with these people for ginger tea. Besides, she's still a little reluctant to spend 50 yuan a pound on grapes.
However, you can buy some of the other vegetables to try, especially lettuce, which you can eat raw right away, which is great.
Fortunately, her father is a chef, so she can ask him to cook her a delicious dish.
Thinking of her dad's cooking, she felt her mouth watering, and she quickly clicked the buy button to place an order.
After making the purchase, she tossed it aside and went off to happily scroll through short videos.
She was scrolling through short videos when she heard the door open and saw her parents walk in looking exhausted.
She quickly got up and helped the two of them with their things.
"Mom, Dad, you're back! You should get some rest. You look so tired today."
Mr. Jiang waved his hand, "Don't even mention it, the restaurant was packed today, I was exhausted."
Jiang's mother sighed, "I worked overtime at the company today, and I got off work at the same time as your father."
Jiang's mother usually gets off work much earlier, so she can get some chores done when she gets home.
Jiang Cha handed two glasses of water to the two of them, saying, "I was wondering why you two were only coming back now. Have you eaten yet?"
Mr. Jiang took the warm water, took a sip, and waved his hand, "I've already eaten at the restaurant, you and your mother eat."
Jiang Cha nodded, "Then I'll just put some wontons in, Mom, you can eat with me later."
"Okay," Aunt Jiang nodded.
Jiang Cha went to the kitchen, took out the small wontons she had wrapped earlier from the refrigerator, and simply put them in after the water boiled. It was very convenient.
That's how it is at home. Although Dad is a chef, he's usually too busy. He's working himself to the bone at the restaurant, cooking all day long, so when he gets home, he really doesn't want to cook anymore.
So, except for special occasions or days off, it's usually Jiang's mom and Jiang Cha who cook at home. Jiang's mom's cooking is alright, but Jiang Cha's is just so-so.
She put the wontons in, took out two bowls to season the food, added a little bit of lard, and then some MSG and soy sauce. Her mother didn't like spicy food, so she didn't add chili oil to her food. She would eat some ginger tea herself.
This chili oil was made by Jiang's dad himself, and it tastes especially good. Jiang Cha always loves to add chili oil when she eats noodles, wontons, and dumplings.
After the wontons were ready, Jiang Cha brought two bowls of wontons to the table and said, "Mom, come and eat. After you finish eating, get some rest."
"Okay, I'm coming right now."
As soon as Jiang's mother sat down, she started eating wontons and drinking ginger tea. While she was eating, she could hear her parents chatting.
After taking a bite of a small wonton, Jiang's mother asked, "What are the plans for Mom's birthday in a couple of days?"
Mr. Jiang lay on the sofa, unwilling to get up. "I heard from the others that we should just have a meal together as a family, instead of going to all that trouble."
Jiang's mother was a little unsure, "It's Mom's 80th birthday, shouldn't we have a big celebration?"
Generally, when elderly people reach the significant age of 80 or 90, they can have a grand celebration.
Mr. Jiang shook his head. “There’s no need for that. Just have a meal as a family and order a cake. My dad is superstitious. He says that the bigger the birthday, the less you should celebrate. If you do, something bad is more likely to happen.”
Aunt Jiang nodded, but was a little dissatisfied, "So, will you still be in charge of cooking then?"
Father Jiang: "Then it must be me. I'm the best cook in the family."
Aunt Jiang shook her head, "Then you must be so tired."
