302 Wonderful!
While they were shouting, Jiang Yue and Xue Yan would look at their stall from time to time.
There were two stoves in their stall. One of the stoves had an iron plate on it that could cook four bowls of rice noodles at the same time. The other stove had a pot for frying rice noodles and poached eggs. This idea simplified Sifu’s life, allowing him for a breather from time to time.
Sifu would have more time to chat and joke with the guests and become more familiar with the people and things in town.
“It’s time to eat the rice noodles, eat the rice-”
Jiang Yue and Xue Yan started to shout again, but before they could finish, an old acquaintance walked over quickly and smiled at them, “So it really is you guys. I heard the waiter say that you guys were here, so I came to take a look. I didn’t expect it to be you.”
It was Shopkeeper Qiao.
Lakshmi restaurant was located in the middle of the street and was not too far away. It was very strange to see two children who were good-looking and shouting here. Even if Shopkeeper Qiao didn’t know about it now, he would find out sooner or later.
“Shopkeeper Qiao.” Xue Yan cupped his hands.
Shopkeeper Qiao hurriedly cupped his hands in return. “You’re much too polite!”
Jiang Yue also greeted him, “Hello.”
Shopkeeper Qiao smiled at her. “The other day, someone came by for a meal and mentioned that he saw a golden couple here. He said that the baby girl was especially adorable. I didn’t believe it at first, but now that I see it’s you two, of course, it makes sense.” As he said that, he glanced at the end of the street and laughed, “Perhaps the two of you would be willing to treat me to a bowl of your family’s rice noodles.”
“Of course…” Xue Yan smiled.
“Alright, let’s go.” Shopkeeper Qiao quickly turned to the side and made a gesture of invitation.
After that, Xue Yan held Jiang Yue’s hand and brought Shopkeeper Qiao back to the stall.
Xue Sifu was busy putting rice noodles into the claypot and didn’t notice Xue Yan and Jiang Yue’s return. It was only when Jiang Yue and Xue Yan pulled Xue Sifu a little that Xue Sifu noticed they had returned. There was also a person dressed like a shopkeeper beside them.
“Sifu, this is Shopkeeper Qiao of Lakshmi restaurant.” Xue Yan explained.
“Oh, oh, oh, it’s Shopkeeper Qiao. Please take a seat, when you’re ready to order let me know.” Xue Sifu hurriedly beckoned for Shopkeeper Qiao to take a seat. It just so happened that someone had finished eating and there was an empty seat.
“I’m not in a hurry. Let me take a look first.” Shopkeeper Qiao smiled.
As he said that, he looked around and saw that most of the seats were filled. Compared to other stalls, the business here was booming.
After that, Shopkeeper Qiao started to stare at the dry rice noodles that were placed out. He said with a look of sudden realization, “So this is the rice noodles…”
He nodded again, and his gaze moved to the stove. Looking at the iron plate under the four claypots, he immediately praised, “Wonderful! What an interesting invention!”
He then turned to Xue Yan, Jiang Yue, and Xue Sifu with a smile of admiration, “This is the first time I’ve seen someone set up a stall in such a wonderful way.”
Xue Sifu laughed, “That’s flattering, I’m just messing around with what I have. Quick, take a seat, I insist.”
Only then did Shopkeeper Qiao lift his robe and sit down. He didn’t mind the table full of people eating rice noodles.
“Shopkeeper Qiao, what kind of rice noodles would you like to eat? Fried rice noodles, sweet and sour rice noodles, vegetable rice noodles, pork rice noodles, and pork broth rice noodles.” Xue Sifu asked.
“Just these few?”
“These are the only ones for now. There will definitely be more in the future.” Xue Sifu laughed and didn’t hide his plans for expanding the business.
“What’s your best seller?”
