My Children Are Fierce and Adorable!

Chapter 273: The Small House by the River

The woman also ate fishballs by the side. As soon as they entered her mouth, she felt that they were incomparably fresh, tender, and sweet. Moreover, there was no fishy smell at all. The texture and elasticity were simply among the best delicacies she had ever eaten.

Could this natural mountain family make such delicious fishballs?!

It was quite a pleasant surprise.

When the woman ate this fishball, she felt even more inclined to eat this bowl of Malatang. She and the girl sat at the table and actually didn’t stop. They just ate slowly and gracefully.

The maidservants who thought that they would leave soon widened their eyes and opened their mouths, stunned.

On the other hand, Ye Lulu looked at the two of them. It seemed like they wouldn’t be able to finish it in a while. She didn’t delay her business and shouted, “Alright, let’s continue doing business. If you want to buy some, line up again.”

This extraordinary mother-daughter pair was still eating. Everyone else was silent. She actually wanted to continue selling?!

Not to mention the maidservants, but even the commoners present were shocked and stretched their necks!

As for Ye Lulu, she wasn’t joking. She shouted a few more times to indicate she was serious. Those who were queuing to buy Malatang were really hungry and really wanted to try it. They had been waiting in line for a long time just now.

With Ye Lulu’s shout… some of the commoners moved hesitantly and rushed forward, starting to line up again!

Hence, the scene in front of the stall became…

There was a gold and silver table beside them. Beside the table sat an elegant pair of mother-daughter dressed luxuriously. They were eating slowly.

A large number of maidservants by the side bowed and waited, but perhaps because the place was too small, they were all squeezed together. The scene looked a little strange.

In front of them, there wasn’t much space separating them. There was only a long line. The commoners dressed in ordinary rough clothes came one after another. Perhaps because they were used to queuing, they didn’t have strange looks just because the nobles were here. Everyone looked quite anxious as they looked at the Malatang stall in front of them.

Ye Lulu was really doing business as usual. She took turns to quickly cook Malatang for people. After heating the ingredients, she started the pot.

In front of the mother-daughter pair’s table and chairs, Xu Huang was sitting on a small stool with a huge wooden basin in front of him. He quickly washed the wooden bowls and chopsticks.

The maidservants were speechless. “…”

Before disembarking the ship, they did not expect such a scene to occur today.

The docks were bustling with people.

The waves on the Yuan River were calm and the ships came and went.

Today was a prosperous and lively day.

Ye Lulu returned to the business. After the noble mother and daughter finished eating, she ordered the maidservant to come forward and pay.

Before Ye Lulu could say how much it was, the maidservant handed over a small gold ingot.

A small gold ingot?!

Ignoring Ye Lulu, Guan Chixi’s eyes almost popped out when he saw this.

The people in the mountains… had never even seen gold before.

That’s right. They had never seen gold before.

This pair of mother and daughter had eaten so much Malatang and actually gave a gold ingot as a reward!

Ye Lulu looked up and said, “Madam gave me too much. You didn’t eat much just now, so there’s no need to give so much money.”

“The extra amount can be seen as tips. This stall’s food tastes very special. My daughter has always had a small appetite and doesn’t eat well. I’m very happy that she can eat so much at your stall…” the woman immediately said.

Ye Lulu nodded. Tips are not considered a big deal to a rich family. This method was common. There was no reason not to want money. This was an unexpected sum of money. Furthermore, the girl’s appetite had indeed increased, so Ye Lulu accepted it with a smile.

However, that was not all.

The woman personally said, “My daughter likes the food from this stall very much, so I want to buy your recipe. You can decide on the price. I wonder if that’s alright? You don’t have to worry. I’ll only buy the recipe to cook it in the mansion. I won’t take it out to do business. It won’t affect your stall.”

“As for the fishballs, they’re fresh and sweet. I like them very much and want to buy the recipe as well.”

As soon as the woman finished speaking, a clear and childish voice sounded from her side. “There’s also the chicken filet! It’s so delicious and fragrant.”

After Qin’er shouted, she paused for a moment and said, “There’s also that yellow and crispy thing which became soft and delicious after soaking in the soup. I want it too!”

The girl was talking about beancurd sheets.

… Did they want to buy all her family’s secret recipes?

They knew how to eat.

The woman curled her lips gracefully and smiled. Her eyes were gentle as she said, “Yes, let’s count those in. How much money do you want?”

The surroundings were silent. Even the commoners queuing up to buy Malatang were shocked.

… This seemed to be the first day this stall was set up.

It was only the first day, but someone already wanted to buy the recipe?!

Wasn’t the owner of this stall going to be rich?!

Guan Chixi held his breath and froze.

Ye Lulu smiled, and her eyes lit up. She said to the woman, “I’m very honored that you like it, Madam. However, my stall doesn’t sell secret recipes. I still want to open a shop in the future. I have to keep these for when I open my shop in the future and make special dishes.”

Guan Chixi was shocked again and his jaw almost dropped.

What?!

When did the Sixth sister-in-law think to open a shop?!

Had she just decided?!

Opening a shop?!

Their Guan family was going to open a shop?

Where would their family get the money to open a shop?!

Guan Chixi’s jaw had already been dislocated, but Ye Lulu’s expression did not change, as if what she said was true.

The woman was stunned and did not expect Ye Lulu to reject her. However, she said, “So that’s the case. I understand. However, you don’t have to worry. We will buy the recipe only to cook it in the mansion so that my daughter can eat it regularly. I can guarantee that we won’t take the recipe out to do business and harm the shop.”

Not only did this woman’s identity look rich, but it was also too noble. Even if she rejected her completely, she would still have a gentle personality.

Ye Lulu said, “I understand Madam’s intentions. How about this? I’ll sell the recipe for Malatang to you. With the recipe for Malatang, you can add any ingredients in your mansion… However, please forgive me for the recipes for fishballs, beancurd sheets, and chicken filet. I can’t sell them to you because they are secret recipes that I developed by myself. I can use them to make other dishes. It’s one of my trump cards in the future, so I can’t sell it to you.”

Not to mention the woman, even Guan Chixi was stunned by Ye Lulu’s words.

It was as if their family was really going to open a shop.
