Chapter 175 Fighting for the Fish Ball Recipe
“I still say the same thing, if you don’t sell it, you won’t sell it.”
Su Xiaoxiao shook her head, very firm in her thoughts.
In fact, this puzzled Pei Yuan who was standing next to him. Didn't Su Xiaoxiao always love money as much as life?
She should be very concerned about the one hundred taels of silver, so why does she insist on refusing it now?
In fact, Pei Yuan had an idea. He really wanted Su Xiaoxiao to accept it, so that he could earn the one hundred taels of silver.
The boss of Fumanlou made a big fuss. Unfortunately, before leaving, he said to Su Xiaoxiao: "Girl, if you change your mind at any time, come to Fumanlou to find me."
He bought some more fish balls from Su Xiaoxiao before saying goodbye and leaving.
When the other restaurant owners saw the opportunity, they were about to come over and ask Su Xiaoxiao if she would sell them the secret recipe of fish balls, but they suddenly felt that this was not the case.
What can I say, the owner of Fumanloujia offered the highest price, and they couldn't pay more than this price anyway. How could they make Su Xiaoxiao change her mind and sell the fish balls to them?
The shopkeepers thought for a while and had no choice but to swallow the words that came to their lips.
Su Xiaoxiao was surrounded by many big shopkeepers in the town who wanted to buy her formula. This incident indeed caused quite a stir at the time.
Regarding this matter, everyone feels that Su Xiaoxiao is very strange. Why does she keep money but not make any money? After Su Xiaoxiao's fish balls were sold out, Pei Yuan and Su Xiaoxiao pushed the cart home together.
On the way, Pei Yuan asked Su Xiaoxiao.
"Why don't you agree to such a good thing?"
Su Xiaoxiao smiled and said: "My fish balls are priceless. I want to buy them for just one hundred taels. Isn't it a bit ridiculous?"
After hearing this, Pei Yuan felt that Su Xiaoxiao was somewhat exaggerating.
"I don't think so, right? These fish balls are indeed delicious, but they are still just a small fish ball. What big article can it make?"
"Actually, you don't know. I think these fish balls are a kind of memory between you and me. No matter what happens in the future, as long as there are fish balls around, I will think of our experience selling fish balls together."
When Pei Yuan heard this, he thought, wasn't Su Xiaoxiao confessing to him in disguise?
He immediately stopped what he was doing, walked quickly in front of Su Xiaoxiao, and stopped Su Xiaoxiao in front of him while it was dark and no one was around.
Su Xiaoxiao was stunned for a moment, and a kiss like a dragonfly fell on Su Xiaoxiao's cheek. Before Su Xiaoxiao had time to react, Pei Yuan's warm and soft lips kissed her.
After the kiss was over, Pei Yuan felt embarrassed.
Under the moonlight, his face was very red, from his ears to his neck.
This was the first time two people had close contact. With such a kiss, Su Xiaoxiao was stunned for several minutes without any reaction.
"What?"
"You kissed me?"
Su Xiaoxiao was stunned and asked hurriedly.
Pei Yuan quickly pushed his stroller and continued walking forward, pretending that nothing happened.
Su Xiaoxiao felt sweet in her heart. In fact, it proved that Pei Yuan seemed to be more innocent than she thought.
Su Xiaoxiao really felt very happy this time. Passing by a man selling candied haws at a roadside stall, Su Xiaoxiao saw Pei Yuan looking over there several times.
"Do you want to eat candied haws on a stick?"
"Um……"
Pei Yuan looked a little embarrassed and nodded.
"Well, I'll buy you a bunch."
Su Xiaoxiao saw in the past that there were sellers of hawthorns, oranges and apples. This candied haws seller was quite business-savvy and knew that he could sell not only hawthorns, but also apples and pears.
The two of them had a bunch of candied haws each. After eating, they saw fried cakes and stinky tofu being sold on the roadside. Su Xiaoxiao bought these delicious foods for Pei Yuan.
Pei Yuan previously served as a general of the Wei Kingdom, and his birth environment did not allow him to eat these things, so naturally he could not eat these good things. After these snacks were placed, Su Xiaoxiao's eyes widened when she saw Pei Yuan.
The two of them ate and drank very luxuriously. Of course, after shopping on this street, they felt full.
But speaking of it, Su Xiaoxiao felt that they still needed to have dinner, so they went to a roadside wonton shop to eat.
The wontons here taste very delicious. In fact, in the eyes of anyone, such delicious wontons are regarded as supremely delicious.
In a house in the town, the maid brought the fish balls she bought in front of Tang Xiaoman.
It was a very delicate little porcelain bowl. It had gone cold when I first bought it. Now it was heated again and placed in front of Tang Xiaoman.
"Fish Ball?"
The maid Xiaocui explained beside her.
"To tell you my master, it is indeed true."
Tang Xiaoman stretched out one of her slender hands to scoop up the fish balls in front of her. The white fish balls were placed in her spoon, and she scooped one up and put it in her mouth.
She didn't care at first, and didn't even think much of the fish balls, but after eating them, she asked Xiaocui: "These fish balls are quite delicious, are there any more?"
"Also. I'm going to serve it to the lady."
With that said, Xiaocui went to the kitchen and brought some to Tang Xiaoman.
Tang Xiaoman seemed to be reluctant to eat the fish balls.
She didn't expect that Pei Yuan and Su Xiaoxiao would go so far as to sell fish balls together.
You must know that Pei Yuan is a nationally famous general. If others knew this, they would really laugh out loud.
"Go and give Aunt Liu a bowl as well."
Aunt Liu is Tang Xiaoman's stepmother. Tang Xiaoman knows how to be a good person. If there is something delicious, he will naturally think of giving Aunt Liu a taste.
"Okay, I'll do it right away."
With that said, Xiao Cui brought the fish balls to Aunt Liu.
"What is this?"
"Returning to Aunt Liu, this is my daughter's way of honoring my aunt. It is a new fish ball in the town. Many people are talking about it and think it is delicious, so they will give this fish ball to my aunt."
At this time, Aunt Liu nodded towards Xiaocui and said thoughtfully: "Then thank your lady for me."
Aunt Liu took a bite of the fish balls, and her eyes suddenly lit up, "It's really good."
After Xiaocui left, she said to the maid beside her: "Go and investigate who made these fish balls."
"Yes, slave, I'll do it now."
The little maid next to her took the order and went down.
At this time, Aunt Liu was eating fish balls and savoring the taste. She fell into deep thought without realizing it.
At noon the next day, the little maid who went to investigate came back to report.
"Returning to the master, we found out that the fishball seller is called Su Xiaoxiao, and the fishballs are actually her original creation."
"Su Xiaoxiao, this name is quite familiar."
Aunt Liu muttered unconsciously.
