369 The Best

Xue Sifu immediately understood, “Why? Do you want to buy it too?”

“I want to buy it! I’ve been coming here just to eat it! It’s just that your stall is really too hot for me to handle anymore. Give me two kilograms of rice noodles too. Sometimes, I come home late at night, so I can just make some rice noodles when the time comes.”

“Alright!” Xue Sifu quickly responded. Then, he found a paper bag. “This should be more than two kilograms. I didn’t bring a scale, but you’re a regular customer of our stall, so I’ll give you the extra.”

“Thank you. Do you sell liangpi too? I also like to eat your liangpi.”

“Liangpi isn’t as good as fresh ones if it’s dried and sold. We can’t hide that fact from you. If you really want the dried liangpi, we can help you dry it at home, and you can come back to buy it again, okay?”

“Then forget it. If there’s no fresh flavor, why would I buy it?”

As the uncle spoke, he took a big gulp and finished the last bit of liangpi on the plate. Then, he stood up and took the bagged rice noodles. Anyone could tell if it was more than two kilograms. When he thought it was enough, he gave the money to Xue Sifu along with the money from the liangpi he ate and strode away.

Seeing the uncle leave, Xue Yan stood up to clear the plates and chopsticks, putting them into the basin. Then, he squatted down beside the basin and started to wash the dishes.

There was only a plate and a pair of chopsticks, so Jiang Yue did not need to help wash them. She took a rag and stood on her tiptoes to wipe the table again.

Xue Sifu counted the money he had earned from selling the dried rice noodles and laughed, “I was thinking that we would sell dry rice noodles when we have a proper shop to sell rice noodles in the future. I didn’t expect that someone would buy our dry rice noodles now. I guess it’s just in time to make up for the loss of the number of bowls sold due to the hot weather.”

As he said this, he sat on the folding stool again. “Xue Yan, Jiang Yue, it seems that we have to buy a scale. We need one big and small scale. We can take the small one to town to sell rice noodles, and the big one will be kept at home so that the family can weigh the stock so that I don’t have to go to the village head’s house to borrow the scale.”

“Fo as you see fit.” Jiang Yue and Xue Yan both said. In this aspect, they really didn’t have any objections and followed their brother’s lead.

“Xue Yan and Jiang Yue are the best!” Xue Sifu immediately laughed, his expression a little exaggerated.

Jiang Yue and Xue Yan were used to it.

He had always been good with words. He could say anything he wanted and please the other party easily.

Xue Yan had just washed the chopsticks and plates and put them aside to dry when he saw the helper of the clinic running to him and saying, “Doctor Shen asked me to tell you that the things you wanted have arrived. He just wanted me to inform you that if you are in a hurry, you can go and get it now. If you are not in a hurry, you can go and get it after work.”

“Alright, thank you.” Xue Yan cupped his hands.

The helper returned the greeting and left.

Xue Yan and Jiang Yue both looked at Xue Sifu to see what he meant.

“No matter what, we have to eat first. We haven’t had lunch yet.” Xue Sifu laughed. “How about this? There are still a few pieces of liangpi left, right? Fortunately, we didn’t ask the family to make more. Let’s mix them up and eat them before closing the stall.”

Xue Yan and Jiang Yue had no objections.

Then, Xue Sifu started to mix the liangpi. After a while, Xue Sifu went to the stall in front and bought three bowls of herbal tea, one for each person.
