Cough, strictly speaking, this is her business.

But who told Jinji not to give her a way out?

If Kam Kee is the first grader, don't blame her for the fifteenth grade!

Whether Mrs. Qi agrees with Su Xiaoxiao, you can tell by the look on her face.

Madam Qi's eyes once again fell on Su Xiaoxiao's face, this time, there was less of the majesty of the old lady in the deep house, and more of the gentleness of the old man.

"Girl, come forward." She waved at Su Xiaoxiao.

Su Xiaoxiao walked over calmly.

She was neither overly eager nor cowardly. After all, she was not a native of ancient times and had never learned ancient social etiquette.

But there are some things that are interlinked in ancient and modern times, that is, a person's aura and self-confidence.

Madam Qi looked at her gently: "You are a lucky girl, tell me, what is your name?"

Su Xiaodao: "Daya Su."

Madam Qi smiled and said, "Where are you from?"

"From Xinghua Village." She answered truthfully.

There is no need to lie about this kind of information, people can find out the eighteen generations of her ancestors by moving their fingers.

Shopkeeper He groaned in his heart, he's just a country boy with mud legs! I don't know if the things I make are clean or not. Mrs. Qi is a serious Fucheng native. When she married the Qi family, it caused a sensation in most of the town!

It's no wonder that Mrs. Qi would look up to her!

Shopkeeper Sun said in a timely manner: "Old lady, you don't know that Ms. Su's dim sum is very famous. The dean of Wutong Academy is full of praise for Ms. Su's craftsmanship, and she also asks Ms. Su to supply the students of the academy every day. .”

Madam Qi was surprised: "Even Dean Shen likes it."

Shopkeeper Sun said with a smile: "Naturally! I dare not lie to the old lady!"

Shopkeeper Sun is worthy of being an old businessman. He can speak well, say black words into white words, and white words into brilliant words, without blushing or heartbeat.

He doesn't know what Dean Shen's attitude towards Su Xiaoxiao is, anyway, it's right to blow it up!

How did the business come about? Three points depend on strength, seven points are bragging!

Shopkeeper He is really going to die of anger, this shameless grandson!

Dean Shen is also a well-known person in Xinghua Town. He is a two-ranked Jinshi who is not mixed with water. He has no ambitions in the court and devotes himself to teaching books.

Madam Qi looked at Su Xiaoxiao with a little more certainty in her eyes.

In fact, even if shopkeeper Sun didn't brag about it, Mrs. Qi wouldn't feel that Su Xiaoxiao's things were worthless just because she came from the countryside.

At this age, she is an old lady who is rich, powerful, and has her own judgment, so she doesn't have to live in the eyes of others.

If she thinks it's good, it's good.

Not to mention these snacks, those two poems alone are enough for her to treat Su Xiaoxiao differently.

Of course, after shopkeeper Sun boasted about Dean Shen's bullshit, she became even more impressed with Su Xiaoxiao.

"Girl, do you have a name for your dim sum?"

Su Xiaoxiao was stunned for a moment, and then realized that Mrs. Qi's question should not be the name of a single dim sum.

She thought for a while, raised her eyes, looked into Madam Qi's benevolent eyes, and said seriously: "Su Ji."

...

Mrs. Qi's 70th birthday, all the famous people in the town came, and the county magistrate also came to celebrate her birthday in person.

These are only people from Xinghua Town, and there are also many guests from Fucheng, some of them are her natal family, and some are her grandchildren's official connections in Fucheng.

The dim sum made by Su Xiaoxiao turned out at the birthday banquet.

These gentlemen and wives have all seen the world.

Take the county magistrate as an example. Although he is not a Jinshi in the second list, he is also a serious provincial examination candidate, and he has been to Beijing for the examination three times.

He had never seen such a chic dim sum.

He looked at the Fucheng officials who had a higher official position than him, and the surprise in everyone's eyes was no less than his.

"Everyone in Jushui has longevity, and Taoyuan is a fairy! This is wishing our old lady to be as blessed as the East China Sea, and to live longer than Nanshan!"

Qing'er copied Su Xiaoxiao's words and introduced them to the wives and daughters who came to inquire.

"Is it Jin Kee's dim sum?"

Kam Kee is the largest dim sum shop in the town, and it is the first thing that comes to everyone's mind.

Qing'er snorted: "That's not true! It's Su Ji!"

"Su Ji? Is it a new shop? Never heard of it?"

"Is it the shop in Fucheng?"

"I live in Fucheng. We don't have a dim sum called Suji in Fucheng. Even if there is, it may not be very famous. I have never tried it."

"Where did that come from? Could it be the provincial capital?"

"My brother is studying in the provincial capital, and the provincial capital doesn't have such delicious snacks!"

"It can't be from the capital, right? The capital is so far away, did the Qi family invite famous chefs from the capital to cook at home?"

...

After the birthday banquet started, Su Xiaoxiao came out from Qi's house, ignorant of the sensation caused by the banquet.

The Qi family refunded Jinji's dim sum, took back the money they gave, and bought Su Xiaoxiao instead.

One hundred salted egg yolk birthday peach cakes, fifty calendula chestnut cakes, and fifty birthday cakes, a total of twenty taels. Mrs. Qi was happy, and rewarded Su Xiaoxiao with another ten taels.

"Sister! We earned thirty taels today! Thirty taels!"

Su Ergou was so excited that he flew up in place!

The joy of selling dim sum is really incomparable to extorting money!

Su Xiaoxiao was also very happy.

In her previous life, money was regarded as dung, but after coming here, she was really poor. Thirty taels was definitely a small fortune for her now.

She had to plan carefully how to use the money.

Compared with the siblings who won the battle, shopkeeper He on the side is like a defeated rooster, decadent and angry!

"The little man succeeds!"

He gritted his teeth and glared at the siblings, before walking towards Jin Kee's carriage with a cold face.

Su Xiaoxiao moved her feet casually, and a small stone flew to Shopkeeper He's feet.

Shopkeeper He slipped on the sole of his foot and fell headlong on the shaft of the car!

"Ouch--"

There was a big bump on his forehead.

Su Xiaoxiao smiled faintly: "You have to have long eyes when you walk, shopkeeper He."

Shopkeeper He got into the carriage and left!

Su Xiaoxiao plans to go to the market to buy some beans and duck eggs.

But if Liu Ping came over, it would be difficult for them to get so many ingredients back to the village without a donkey cart.

Waiting for Liu Ping's time, shopkeeper Sun also came out from Qi's house.

Facing Su Xiaoxiao again, shopkeeper Sun's mood was a bit complicated, and there was also a hint of embarrassment.

It used to be a hostile relationship, who would have expected that they would cooperate one day.

He paused, and said: "The business of the Qi family, I will treat it as paying back yesterday's favor. I, Sun Quan, are snobbish, and my methods are a little disgraceful, but I am not a person who does not know good and bad—— Qi and I The steward of the family has said that if there is such a business in the future, they will come to you."

Su Xiaoxiao raised her eyebrows and glanced at him: "Aren't you going to do some business for yourself?"

Even if he is no longer the shopkeeper of Jin Kee, but at least he still has the skills. If he really wants to make a comeback, it is not impossible.

Shopkeeper Sun sighed helplessly: "I said, return your favor. From now on, I will not steal your business again."
