Chapter 57 Rescue

  The fish... took the bait!

   Shopkeeper Sun really thought everything would be fine if he bought her formula?

  That was just the beginning of another business, you know, it’s not so easy to take advantage of the little village girl!

  Whether shopkeeper Sun sees through or not, Su Xiaoxiao doesn't care, after all, she has nothing to do with her.

  He needs the ingredients for egg yolk crisps, and she is the only one in the town who can make them. Unless he gives up this dessert, he must buy it from her.

  He has already spent fifteen taels of silver on this recipe, if he really gave up, would he be willing?Can you explain it to the owner?

How do you say that?

  ——Excellent hunters often appear as prey.

  From the moment Shopkeeper Sun set his sights on her formula, today's situation was doomed.

   It is true that shopkeeper Sun has another choice - to go further afield to purchase goods.

   But if he could, why bother finding her?

   It can be seen that the cost of purchasing goods elsewhere is much higher than the budget that shopkeeper Sun can use for ingredients.

  Finally, Su Xiaoxiao agreed to supply it to Jin Kee at the price of one salted egg yolk, which is more profitable than selling the formula.

  After the first batch of orders came in the spring, shopkeeper Sun proposed to try the food first, and pay only when he was satisfied.

  Su Xiaoxiao understands that shopkeeper Sun wants to take advantage of the Chinese New Year to inquire around to see if there are other supply channels.

——

  Snacks are sold out at noon.

   In the next two days, there were almost no customers on the street, and most of the shops were closed.

   After selling the last cake, Su Xiaoxiao clapped her hands: "Close the stall! This year's business is over!"

  Su Ergou still couldn't finish it: "It's so fast."

   "It's too late, it's already afternoon." In the past, all the stalls were sold out in less than half an hour, and it never exceeded noon.

  Su Xiaoxiao continued: "Tomorrow is Xiaonian, you see that there is no one on the street, and the market is about to close, let's hurry up and go shopping again."

   "Sister, what do you want to buy?" Su Ergou asked.

   "I want to buy some peanuts, and then I'll see what else is available for the New Year." Su Xiaoxiao.

  Su Ergou said happily: "I like to eat peanuts!"

  Peanuts are really good. You can fry peanuts, make peanut crisps, or make peanut butter.

  Peanut butter is a good nutrition for weight loss. It can not only supplement the high-quality fat needed by the body, but also enhance the feeling of fullness. A spoonful of it will make you so tired that you can’t eat for a long time.

  Unfortunately, when they arrived at the market, the peanut sellers had already closed their stalls.

There will be no more stalls this year.

  Su Ergou looked at the mostly empty market: "Sister, I can't buy peanuts anymore."

  Su Xiaoxiao sighed regretfully, suddenly, a flash of light flashed in her mind: "I can't buy it...you can buy it there!"

  Su Ergou scratched his head: "Sister, where are you talking about?"

  Two quarters of an hour later, the two arrived at Chunliu Lane stepping on the thick snow.

   The door of the Fu family was closed.

  Su Xiaoxiao’s hands were tucked into warm sleeves, and she was too lazy to take them out, so she called out to her younger brother, “Ergou, knock on the door.”

   "Oh." Su Ergou slammed on the wooden door, "Is anyone there? Fu Langzhong! It's us!"

no response.

   "Aren't you at home? Are you on a medical visit?" Su Ergou muttered.

Su Xiaoxiao said: "Aunt Fu didn't come out of the booth, Fu Langzhong is not here, she should be here, keep knocking."

  Su Ergou continued to knock on the door: "Aunt Fu! It's us! Are you at home? Can you hear me?"

  It was probably because they made too much noise and disturbed the neighbors next door. A woman in her early thirties opened her courtyard door and came out.

   She looked at the siblings and frowned and said, "Don't knock, don't knock! Fu Langzhong is on a doctor's visit! Not here!"

  Su Xiaoxiao asked politely: "We are looking for Aunt Fu, is she there?"

  The woman said flatly: "I don't know about that. That old woman never interacts with anyone. Who knows her whereabouts?"

   She entered the room after speaking.

   Something is wrong.

  Su Xiaoxiao frowned.

  She didn't see Aunt Fu when she went to Luo Dazhuang to check out in the morning, and she wasn't there in the afternoon, she didn't leave the stall all day, where would she go if she wasn't at home?

   "Ergou, flip inside!"

  Su Ertou was stunned: "Ah? Sister, this, this is not very good, right? Aren't we not extorting money?"

  Su Xiaoxiao asked strangely: "What does it have to do with extorting money?"

  Su Ergou's expression was even more indescribable: "Do you want to steal money?"

  Su Xiaoxiao held her forehead speechlessly: "I want you to go in and see if Aunt Fu is here."

   "Oh oh oh." Su Ergou scratched his head resentfully.

  The two siblings move in the same style, but Su Xiaoxiao usually only scratches her head when she is irritable.

  Su Ergou said: "Then I will go in."

  Su Xiaoxiao exhorted: "Be careful!"

"okay!"

Su Ergou kicked his feet, clung to the wall with both hands, and easily rolled into the yard.

   After a while, Su Ergou opened the dilapidated door with a bang: "Sister! Something happened to Aunt Fu!"

  Su Ergou found Aunt Fu in the open space in the backyard. She was lying in the snow, with signs of struggle under her body, and scattered dustpans and dried plums beside her.

   "What's the smell?" Su Ergou sniffed.

   "Stove House!" Su Xiaoxiao wrote.

  Su Ergou hurriedly went to the stove house to have a look: "My God! The pot is burnt through!"

  Su Xiaoxiao squatted down.

   It seems that Aunt Fu is planning to take the washed dried plums to the stove for cooking, but the soles of her feet slipped and fell due to the ice and snow.

  She tried to get up by herself, maybe because she was old, or maybe she fell too hard, so she failed.

   Fu Langzhong is not here, and her relationship with her neighbors is not harmonious...

  In the end, she just passed out in the snow.

   "Sister! Aunt Fu is still angry, right? Let me go, I will move her into the house!"

   "Don't touch her, let me check."

   To rule out the existence of physical trauma or fractures.

  Su Xiaoxiao began to examine her.

  The forehead and the palms of both hands were slightly scratched, and there was no obvious trace of bleeding, but her left leg was broken.

   "The injury is not serious." Su Xiaoxiao sighed, "Ergou, go to the stove house to find some pieces of dry firewood. If you want the kind that is flat and long, I will chop a few pieces if you don't have it."

"it is good!"

  Su Ergou should go down.

  Papa Su is a Lianjiazi, injuries are common, some minor injuries can be dealt with by himself.

  He has been with his father all year round, and he has seen a little bit of it, and understands what kind of board his sister wants.

  He hacked several pieces in a short time.

   "Sister, have you seen enough?"

  Su Xiaoxiao took a look and said, "That's enough, you go to that warehouse. I remember there are clean cloth strips hanging on the shelf on the left."

  Su Ergou said: "Sister, you even remember this!"

  Su Xiaoxiao said sternly: "Hurry up! She's freezing to death, and she will be in danger if she doesn't enter the house!"

"Eh!"

  Su Ergou went to fetch the cloth.

  Su Xiaoxiao gave Aunt Fu's leg a simple braking treatment: "Be careful when you lift it for a while."

   People who are frozen are prone to secondary fractures.

Su Ergou moved an old door panel together.

  The two siblings carefully carried him back to Aunt Fu's bed with the door panel.

  Aunt Fu is in a bad situation.

  Although the fracture was not fatal to her, she suffered severe hypothermia. If she could not recover her body temperature in time, she might not be able to wake up again.
