The Koi Wife of the Prime Minister

Chapter 133 Roujiamo

Even Xiao Ming and Xiao Fang were conquered by this special delicacy. The doubts in their hearts slowly disappeared with every bite, and were replaced by admiration for Sister Shen Yan's cooking skills.

In the end, the whole family drank up all the soup.

"It's delicious. If Sister Yan sells this on the official road, I guess those noodle vendors outside won't be able to sell it." Sister Xiaolan's husband sighed with satisfaction.

"Yes, although sour bamboo shoots have a strong flavor, without this thing, they won't have that unique flavor." Sister Xiaolan analyzed.

The man nodded and said, "What do you think? If we go to the river to catch snails, can we make this noodle soup?"

Sister Xiaolan immediately rejected his idea: "This is Sister Yan's secret recipe. It's not something you can just make casually. Forget about it."

As she spoke, Sister Xiaolan cleared the dishes and started washing them.

On the other side, Shen Yan was secretly delighted while cleaning the dishes in the kitchen.

She knows that her snail noodles have won a good reputation among her family and friends, which makes her feel very satisfied and proud.

Although she had some doubts in her heart as to whether her snail noodles were suitable for setting up a stall on Shangguan Road, she did not intend to give up easily.

Maybe she could give it a try and listen to the opinions of passers-by. Maybe someone would really like her special taste.

Thinking of this, Shen Yan made up her mind that when the time is right, she would bravely go out and bring her food to more people. Whether it was at home or at a stall outside, as long as more people could taste her food, she would be satisfied.

After washing the dishes, Shen Yan dried her hands and walked out of the kitchen.

She looked at her family sitting in the hall, smiling, her heart filled with warmth and happiness.

At the same time, at the home of Butcher Du who runs a butcher shop.

His son urged him, "Dad, why can't you figure it out? Shen Yan is with the two children of the second branch of the Wang family, and Wang Lao Da and Wang Juan are the eldest and his wife of the Wang family. They are a family."

"So, if Boss Wang comes to buy pig offal, just give it to him."

"This week, I have two taels of silver for the purchase of goods."

Butcher Du's son was blinded by money and wanted to do Boss Wang's business. It turned out that Boss Wang's family had come to him and wanted to buy Butcher Du's pig offal.

Butcher Du refused: "I do have feelings for the second branch of the Wang family, but the couple are gone, leaving behind two children. I can only return this favor to Sister Yan. She is a good person and treats the two children well, treating them as her own brothers and sisters."

"Hey, regardless of whether they are from the first or the second branch, how come they are not one family? Why do you do Shen Yan's business but not Boss Wang's business? You are just leaving a profitable business unattended!"

The son couldn't understand why Butcher Du was unwilling to deliver meat to Boss Wang.

"I said no and it means no. You have to return the deposit immediately. I won't do this business anymore." Butcher Du made up his mind not to do business with Boss Wang and asked his son to return the money.

He knew Boss Wang's character, so he didn't want to do business with him. What's more, the amount of meat he could get from slaughtering pigs every day was limited, and he had already agreed to sell it to Shen Yan, so he couldn't sell it to anyone else, let alone someone like Boss Wang.

Butcher Du's son stared at him, shook his head and sighed, "Dad, why are you doing this? Boss Wang's money is not given for free, and we are not seeking anyone's friendship. It's just a business, and making money is fine. Why bother about it?"

Butcher Du frowned and was silent for a moment. He knew that what his son said made sense.

However, his emphasis on friendship and his sense of responsibility towards Shen Yan and the Wang family's children made him unwilling to change his mind easily.

"Kid, you don't understand."

Butcher Du sighed deeply, "Doing business is not just about making money. There is friendship between Shen Yan and I, and I will never go back on my promise to her."

Butcher Du's son shook his head and looked at his father helplessly: "Dad, you are too persistent. Boss Wang also wants to buy pig offal to do business. I don't know if you will offend him if you refuse like this."

"I'm not afraid of offending people." Butcher Du said firmly, "I just know that I can't let Shen Yan down, and I can't let her down for her kindness to the Wang family's children."

Butcher Du's son sighed, knowing that it was useless to persuade him any further. He could only obediently return the deposit to Boss Wang and explain this sudden decision as tactfully as possible.

However, the doubts in Du's heart did not dissipate. He knew that his refusal might cause some unpleasantness, but deep down, he was more convinced that the decision he made was correct.

In his opinion, friendship and responsibility are far more valuable than money.

The next day, Butcher Du delivered pork to Shen Yan as usual.

Wang Jun was there, but Shen Yan was not. So Butcher Du gave the meat to Wang Jun, and Wang Jun gave the silver.

The two sat in the yard and talked for a while.

Butcher Du smoked his pipe and said, "Alas, I may not be able to send you pigs to eat in the future."

He was thinking that his son would definitely not be able to handle the matter with Boss Wang, so all the pig offal would have to be given to Boss Wang in the future. This was also a helpless move.

As he left, he blamed himself and reminded Wang Jun: "Tell your sister later to be careful of the couple in the Wang family's eldest house. They have bad intentions! It's all my fault!"

After saying that, Butcher Du left.

Not long after, Shen Yan came back and Wang Jun told her about this.

"Sister, Butcher Du said that he will no longer have pig offal for us. Will this affect our business?"

"No." Shen Yan said, "We mainly use pork belly to make roujiamo, and pig offal is just used to make braised food. If we don't have pig offal, it's no big deal. Don't I make snail rice noodles now? I can try to sell it, it won't affect business."

Wang Jun nodded and turned back to fetch some water.

Shen Yan stood quietly in the yard, staring at the sky in the distance, but her heart was surging.

She knew that Butcher Du's decision was not made lightly, but was the result of careful consideration.

But she also realizes that this decision may bring some challenges to their business.

However, Shen Yan did not feel afraid or hesitant.

She knows that the business world is full of uncertainties and challenges, but as long as she maintains a firm belief and a flexible attitude, she can always overcome difficulties.

"Jun'er, don't worry."

Shen Yan turned around and smiled at Wang Jun, saying, "We can't lose confidence because of temporary difficulties. Butcher Du's decision is his choice. We just need to respond positively and find more solutions."

Wang Jun looked at Shen Yan's firm and confident expression, and the worries in his heart gradually dissipated.

He knew that his sister was a wise and courageous person, and believed that she would be able to cope with any difficulties.
