"Humph! You're talking nonsense! Why would you give the stall to others for no reason? The way I see it, you must still be thinking about Lin Ke-er. That's why you don't dare to get her back and even want to push the blame onto Tang Tang. "Cheng Mengying glanced sideways at Xiao Chen as she made sarcastic remarks.
Xiao Chen shook his head and didn't bother to argue with Cheng Mengying. Instead, he skillfully threw the fried dough stick into the oil pan. It didn't take long for a golden and well-proportioned fried dough stick to be fried.
Seeing that he didn't refute, Cheng Mengying was about to say a few more words. Seeing that Xiao Chen simply fried the fried dough stick, she immediately forgot the previous things and said eagerly, "Xiao Chen, let me try! You go knead the dough! "
"Miss, you can help me sell things. Let me do the rough work of frying the fried dough stick!" Xiao Chen didn't give up his position immediately, but simply refused. He wasn't worried about Cheng Mengying's fried dough stick was not good, but he was afraid that the delicate and noble young lady would be scalded by the splashing oil foam. That would be troublesome.
"Well, stinky Xiao Chen, you look down on me, don't you? Although I haven't fried dough stick before, I may not be worse than you! You see, I'm born to bargain, right? Give me the chopsticks! " Seeing that Xiao Chen actually refused her, Cheng Mengying simply grabbed the long chopsticks in his hand and fried them in a dignified manner.
"Well, then be careful, don't get scalded." Seeing this, Xiao Chen had to shake his head helplessly and concentrated on kneading the dough to make the fried dough stick. He also knew the temper of the young lady. As long as she wanted to try something, he basically couldn't pull her back, so he just let her be!
"Don't worry, I'm a cultivator now. Even if I get scalded a few times, it won't be a big deal, and I'm still wearing gloves, right?" Cheng Mengying waved her hand and said confidently. Then she began to concentrate on turning the fried dough stick and fried cake in the pan.
After a while, after making some reserve materials, Xiao Chen turned his head to look at the situation on Cheng Mengying's side. But at a glance, he was immediately shocked!
Some of the youtiao that was fried by the Eldest Miss and placed outside were thick at one end and thin at the other end. Some were soft and didn't look cooked at all. There were also many that were directly fried until they were charred, making it impossible for people to eat them. They couldn't be eaten at all.
As for the fried cakes, they were even more miserable. Some of them were mashed together, some of them were irregularly shaped, and there were even a few pieces of fillings that leaked out. They were lying crookedly on the plate. The scene was simply too horrible to look at.
"I say, young lady, what kind of breakfast are you selling here?" An old man came to the stall with a vegetable basket. Obviously, he was passing by and wanted to eat breakfast. But at this time, he looked at the food on the stall with some confusion. He rubbed his eyes, thinking that his presbyopia was acting up again.
"Ah? Old man, are you kidding? I'm selling fried dough sticks and fried cakes. How can you not recognize them? Look … "Cheng Mengying saw that a customer had finally come. She was about to introduce them, but when she heard the old man say that, she was suddenly unhappy. She wiped the sweat on her forehead, turned her head and pointed at the things that she had fried, and then … was stunned.
No wonder the old man would say that. He couldn't tell what those balls of suspicious objects were!
"Ahem, I've lived for most of my life, and this is the first time I've seen fried dough sticks and fried cakes like this!" The old man looked at it for a while, waved his hand, and said helplessly, "Forget it, I'll go eat something else. I don't know what will happen if I eat it. I still want to live a few more years!"
"Old man, wait a minute!" Xiao Chen saw that the situation was not good. He helped the old man to the table, and then quickly fried a few fried dough sticks. He put a bowl of tofu pudding on the table and said enthusiastically, "My shop just opened today. Maybe my girlfriend's cooking is not very good, so the fried is not very good. Please forgive me. Since you are our first customer, this breakfast is on me. I hope you don't mind! "
"Hmph! Who is your girlfriend? " Cheng Mengying was ridiculed by the old man. She was already angry. When she heard Xiao Chen talk to himself and said that she was his girlfriend, she snorted unwillingly and turned her face away.
"This … okay!" The old man looked at the fried dough sticks that Xiao Chen fried. They were quite decent, so he was relieved. He sat on the chair and ate. He said while eating, "En! Young man, your cooking is really good! The fried dough sticks are just right, and the taste is also very good! Little girl, you still need to practice your hands a little more! Otherwise, sooner or later, this store of yours will close down because of you! "
"You …" Cheng Mengying was about to explode. I gave you free food, and you still have so much to say. Really!
After the old man finished eating and left, Xiao Chen cleaned up the table and took the chopsticks from Cheng Mengying's hand. He said casually, "Miss, let me do the fried dough sticks! You just need to be responsible for the marketing and sales. "
Xiao Chen used the chopsticks to put all the food that Cheng Mengying fried into a bag. He planned to eat it as breakfast after closing the stall.
"Woof!" When Xiao Chen was about to put away the bag, Invincible Dog, who was squatting on the side, suddenly barked. Its small eyes stared at the bag in Xiao Chen's hand, and then it stuck out its tongue and licked its lips. It looked like it was hungry.
"Aiya, I almost forgot about you. Since you are hungry, I will give you something to eat first!" Xiao Chen took out two pieces of what looked like fried cakes and fried dough sticks from the bag and threw them in front of Invincible Dog.
Invincible Dog did not care about the strange shapes of those things. It lowered its head and ate with relish.
"Xiao! Shen! Although the food that I fried doesn't look good, there is no need for you to feed it to a dog! I think you are asking for a beating! " Cheng Mengying roared angrily. If it were not for the fact that she had to maintain her ladylike image in public, she would have already kicked him.
"Hehe, since Invincible Dog is hungry, I will give it some first! Invincible Dog is not an ordinary dog, how can it be the same? "Xiao Chen shrugged and said nonchalantly.
Before Cheng Mengying could say anything, they heard two whimpering sounds under their feet. It turned out that Invincible Dog had already finished eating. At this time, it raised its head and looked at the two of them with eager eyes. It kept wagging its tail, looking like it was not full.
"Stinky dog! You are not allowed to eat my food anymore. Other dogs can still pick up a purse or a slipper for their owner, but you can't do anything and still eat so much. I really don't know what the point of raising you is! "Cheng Mengying angrily slapped Invincible Dog's head and scolded it with a sullen face.
"Wuuu …" Invincible Dog seemed to understand the young miss' lesson. It lowered its head pitifully and pitifully.
"Sigh, you really are forgetful. Wasn't it Invincible Dog who helped you find your bracelet? How can you say that it is useless? " As Xiao Chen spoke, her hands did not stop moving. Very quickly, she fried a lot of golden, shiny fried dough sticks and fried cakes. The stall was filled to the brim, and just looking at it made one's appetite increase.
"You still have the nerve to say that! Look at it yourself. We have been open for so long and only one customer came, and it was a free trial. Why are you frying so many fried dough sticks and fried cakes now? What if you can't sell them? "Cheng Mengying did not care about being angry with Invincible Dog and quickly asked anxiously.
Seeing that it was getting late, there were more and more people on the morning market street, but no one came to patronize her business. It was really strange.
"Oh, don't be too anxious. Someone will come in a while!" Xiao Chen did not care and continued to lower her head to busy herself with the work in her hands.
Although Cheng Mengying saw it and was anxious in her heart, there was nothing she could do at the moment. How could she advertise for business? She could only stand there stupidly and watch the crowd come and go. Her fingers kept rubbing her clothes, and her eyes kept rolling. No one knew what she was thinking.
"Selling … selling fried dough sticks … soy milk … tofu pudding … fried cakes … That one, don't miss it …" After a while, Cheng Mengying finally plucked up her courage and whispered to the crowd. However, her voice was like a mosquito's buzz, and it was quickly drowned in the bustling morning market street. No one heard it at all.
"Eldest Miss, did you say something just now? I saw you open your mouth, but I didn't hear any sound for a long time. Did you already learn the skill of Demonic Sound Transmission? "Xiao Chen had just finished the work in his hands and smiled as he teased.
"Go to hell! I am trying to advertise for business. Are your ears deaf? If you only work and don't shout, when will you be able to sell so many fried dough sticks? "Cheng Mengying didn't make a sound like a mosquito this time. With a cold face, she said in a loud voice.
"You shouted so softly, who can hear you? Look who came to patronize? "Xiao Chen smiled and shook his head.
"I … If you have the ability, shout!" Cheng Mengying was annoyed and depressed. She turned her head away hatefully.
"You can't shout like that." Xiao Chen smiled slightly and shouted, "Take a look, take a look! The Tang Breakfast Shop has reopened! Today's opening promotion, 20% discount! Don't miss it! Today you can buy first serve, or you will have to wait in line to buy it tomorrow! "
Xiao Chen's shout quickly attracted the attention of many passers-by, but most people were watching the fun, and few people were buying.
Many people in the morning market had eaten the youtiao sold by Xiao Chen, so they had a very deep impression of it. However, towards this newly opened stall, as well as the two completely unfamiliar faces, the passersby only held the attitude of watching a bustling scene. They stood at the side and whispered to each other, no one was willing to be the first to try something new.
"Why Tang Breakfast? Since it is opened by me, of course, it should be called Cheng's! Hurry up and change the name! "Cheng Mengying frowned and ordered very unhappily. Although their equipment was borrowed from her, after all, she was the boss! How could she use a name that had nothing to do with her?
