Chapter 14 Solution

Shen Yunyao heard the guests making a fuss, while Shen Yunhao stood there helpless and motionless, with a trace of anxiety and helplessness on his face.

She tapped the edge of the table nearest to her with her rolling pin a few times and shouted: "Dear guests, please be quiet!"

Shen Yunhao walked quickly to his sister and stood side by side with her, feeling immediately at ease.

As expected, these guests stopped and looked at the two siblings.

Shen Yunhao was still a little uncomfortable facing everyone's gaze and lowered his head slightly, but Shen Yunyao was not afraid and faced everyone calmly.

She bowed to everyone and said: "I'm really sorry for what happened today. I'm sorry. I'm sorry for the trust that all the guests have placed in us. Everything is our negligence. But we must tell everyone the whole story. To avoid unnecessary misunderstandings.

Today, my aunt and her daughter asked to help. We didn’t want to trouble our relatives, so we refused. However, my aunt was too enthusiastic, so my mother had to leave them. I thought they could do such a small thing as making noodles. I didn’t expect that my cousin would give them a hand. The guest spit in the bowl. Other guests, please rest assured. My cousin only served soup to one guest, so the other guests’ noodles must be fine.”

Someone sarcastically said: "Who knows if you have done this before!"

Shen Yunyao asked: "What good does this do to us? Isn't this a loss of our brand? Our pursuit is to present the best possible face to our guests.

What happened today was really unexpected. From now on, everyone who works at our noodle stall will wear masks.

We, our family, have been doing things in a down-to-earth manner before and in the future. Please keep your eyes peeled and don’t let some people affect your impression of our Zhiwei Noodles. Today, as an apology, everyone here will pay half the price.”

"Why isn't the bill free?"

"That's right, that person is not exempt from the bill, we should be exempted from the bill too!"

"No bill! We will forgive you."

…

Shen Yunhao seemed to be infected by his sister's bravery. He dared to face everyone and said with a sad look on his face: "It's hard enough for our small business to lose money because of relatives' troubles. Dear guests, please do your best and don't make things difficult for your children. .

Half price is the limit that our family can afford to apologize. If someone like this comes and apologizes once a day, my family will not be able to do business in the future. If some people follow the same example, other people will not be able to do business. Just rely on Everyone has set a positive example.”

When everyone saw Shen Yunhao looking like he was about to cry, they all felt a little sympathy. They also felt that what he said was reasonable, and they felt a surge of pride in their hearts after being praised. Most people had already let go of the matter.

"Hey, it's not all your fault for this. It's nice to give us half price. I can't get enough of your noodles every day."

"Everyone, please be patient. It's not easy for others."

"Okay, okay, okay, that's it. You shouldn't open your stomach to eat at this time. It's half price today! Give me another bowl!"

The matter finally calmed down, and Shen Yunyao and Shen Yunhao got busy in an orderly manner.

Not far from the noodle stall, Mrs. Zhao just stretched out her hand to slap Mrs. Liu, but a fierce and strong man grabbed her wrist.

"Who are you? Let go!" Ms. Zhao was a little scared, afraid of being beaten by this strong man.

"Manager Liu, do you want to have some noodles? Please come in!" Mrs. Liu saw that it was Manager Liu and greeted her quickly.

Manager Liu shook off Zhao's wrist, and Zhao stumbled and almost fell.

He snapped at Mrs. Zhao: "No one dares to cause trouble in my jurisdiction. What's the matter? Do you want to taste whether the stick in my hand is strong?"

Mrs. Zhao was so frightened that her legs went weak and she sat on the ground unable to get up. Her eyes were red.

Shen Yunyan stood aside crying, not even remembering to help her mother.

Manager Liu said impatiently: "Get out of here yet!"

Zhao got up using her hands and feet, pulled Shen Yunyan and ran away staggeringly.

Ms. Liu quickly thanked her and invited Manager Liu into the noodle stall. She served a portion of meatball noodles and said she wanted to treat him.

"I'm just here to eat noodles, so I can help you out. Can you take away your noodles? I want to take them home for my mother to try." Manager Liu said as he ate.

Shen Yunyao had warned Mr. Liu before that some people might take them away to eat, so they made a lot of bamboo bowls and kept lotus leaves and strings on hand.

Ms. Liu smiled and said, "Of course you can take it away. The one you take away today is also free. You are also promoting us for free, so don't refuse."

Manager Liu did not refuse. After finishing the meal, he left with the bamboo bowl.

Seeing this, other guests also wanted to take away some food.

Shen Yunhao said: "It costs an extra penny to take it away."

Someone said: "You are too evil. The stall sells three bamboo bowls for a penny."

Shen Yunhao is already very good at dealing with such customers, "If it can hold delicious noodles, it's worth the price. For example, the price of copper wire and copper hairpins is different. We don't force it. If you want to pay, just pay. If you don’t want to pay for it, just eat here. The price is clearly marked.”

After this explanation, many people wanted to take it away to eat, especially the servants on the passing ship and those with nobles on board.

After returning home in the evening, Shen Yunyao told Mrs. Liu how to make cold skin. Mrs. Liu made several portions according to Shen Yunyao's instructions.

Shen Yunyao ate the cold skin with big mouthfuls. It was a rare relief in this hot weather. "Mom, your cooking is so delicious, it will definitely sell well. I am not afraid that my business will be affected by today's incident. It's just that I don't have many mung beans at home. I can’t make much cold skin.”

Ms. Liu was not worried, "I collect the mung beans from the villagers, and there must be many people selling them. I'll go and ask after eating."

Shen Yunzhen took a small bite and said happily: "Mom, this cold noodle is cooler than noodles."

Shen Yunhao said: "Sister, you said before that after the noodles are cooked, pick them up and put them in cold water. Why don't you use river water for cold water? You have to boil water, what a waste of firewood?"

Shen Yunyao explained: "Boiling water can kill the parasite eggs in the river. You can't drink raw water, otherwise worms will grow in your stomach. It is safer to use cold boiled water for our noodle stall, so as not to worry about diarrhea. We.”

Shen Yunhan showed a horrified expression and shouted: "Sister, are there bugs in my stomach? I drink raw water every day."

Shen Yunhao touched his forehead, sighed and said, "It seems like someone is not."

"I met a traveling doctor who went into the mountains before and told me how to prepare anti-insect medicine. I will prepare some for you some other day." Shen Yunyao made up a lie and said calmly, "It won't hurt your body."

Mrs. Liu smiled and said, "Okay. It's time to take some medicine. From now on, the whole family will drink boiled water. Hao'er, I'll leave the boiling of water to you."

Shen Yunhao happily agreed. He had to urge everyone to drink more water. He had seen many people suffering from heatstroke these days.

The chirping of insects and the croaking of frogs were particularly clear in the middle of the night. After Shen Yunyao practiced "weight loss exercises" for an hour, Zhuzhu asked her to continue practicing the next day while holding a stone weighing about five kilograms.

She found that her strength was increasing day by day, and now she felt as light as nothing while holding the stone.

"Today I am practicing with a ten-pound stone. The stone you usually sit on under the tree is about ten pounds." Zhuzhu raised her demands again.

Shen Yunyao walked over, picked up the stone and practiced for a while. The feeling of being so heavy that he gritted his teeth came back.

Suddenly, she noticed something was wrong. The right side seemed to be dangerous. With the intuition brought by her improved mental power, she ducked sideways.
