EBE Chapter 342 Pig Blood Soup
Chapter 342 Pig Blood Soup
Zheng Sisi put the things away and said, "I'll go back and ask the maids to make a few samples with the cloth, and then send them to the cloth shop to ask them to make more."
Zheng Sisi asked again: "By the way, the food in your cement factory must be kept up, and every four or five days, you should cook a pot of pig blood soup for everyone to drink to clear the dust for everyone."
Sheng Zhen asked: "What's the explanation for this?"
Zheng Sisi: "Pig blood soup has the effect of clearing dust. People who work under dust for a long time will inhale dust in the air into their lungs when they breathe. After a long time, the dust will cause coughing. Drinking some pig blood soup from time to time is like giving your lungs a bath, which can reduce the occurrence of coughing and lung diseases."
Sheng Zhen nodded: "I understand. I will tell him when I get back. Also, how to prepare the pig blood."
Zheng Sisi held her forehead with her hand. That's right, no one here eats pig blood. She said, "I'll write you the recipes for making pig blood and dishes with pig blood tonight."
Sheng Zhen nodded in satisfaction: "Okay."
After a while, Qingfeng's voice came: "Master, the county lady has arrived."
Sheng Zhen took Zheng Sisi out and helped her out of the carriage.
The carriage was parked at the entrance of the alley. There were still many people on the street, most of them carrying baskets to buy vegetables. The vegetable market was three streets away, and people could be seen coming in and out of every alley, so the business in the shop was pretty good. Only the alley where they were currently standing was quiet, with no one coming in or out.
Zheng Sisi stood in the middle of the street and looked inside. She saw old people sitting at the doorsteps of some shops with needle and thread baskets next to them. They must be mending clothes.
Because no one was walking in the middle of the street, a few children were playing in the middle of the street.
Several people walked forward, observing the shops on both sides. They must have been unrented for a long time and not repaired. The shop fronts were a bit shabby and the windows were broken. From the outside, you can see that the shops were filled with sundries. There were about 30 shops along the way. They were all vacant. What a waste!
Zheng Sisi also saw that there was a small alley between the shops every few people, leading to other streets, but there were few people walking in it. There were a lot of unwanted items piled up in it, and it was very messy.
Zheng Sisi walked over to the children, who were watching ants moving. Zheng Sisi took out a handful of candy from her bag and said, "Little sisters, I'll give you some candy. Tell me what you are doing!"
Several children turned around, they were boys and girls, all about four or five years old. They saw a beautiful sister and three boys behind her, all of them were tall, especially Sheng Zhen's cold look that scared them.
Several children took a step back and stood together. A slightly older boy stood in the front and held out his hands to stop the people behind him. He asked, "We don't know you. What are you doing? Are you taking pictures of the beggars?"
Zheng Sisi laughed: "Do you think my sister looks like a beggar?"
The little boy answered honestly, "I don't know."
Zheng Sisi: "Then you guys don't want the candy I give you?"
The children swallowed their saliva. They probably didn't live a rich life, and candy was a luxury for them. Although they wanted to eat it, their parents said they couldn't eat things from strangers. They all shook their heads.
An old lady who was sewing clothes nearby saw a few strangers talking to a child, so she put down her work and ran over. Seeing that they were dressed elegantly and did not look like beggars, she asked, "Excuse me, young men and young ladies, what can I do for you?"
Zheng Sisi turned around and stood up, saying, "Auntie, we just walked around and saw that all the shops on this street were closed for business, so we came in to take a look out of curiosity."
When the people in the next room heard the noise outside, they all ran out to see what was going on. They were all elderly people.
The lady just now said: "Oh, you are talking about this, our street is too remote, and it is a dead end. People who do business don't want to choose this place. In the past, some people opened their own shops, but they all lost money and eventually closed them down."
Zheng Sisi asked: "Can I see your shop?"
The lady nodded: "Sure! Miss, do you need to rent a shop?"
Zheng Sisi said: "Let me take a look first."
The old lady said, "Miss, you should rent a shop on the main street. It's a loss even if you rent it here. Although we want to rent out the shop, we don't want to hurt others and make them lose all their money."
Zheng Sisi instantly had a very good impression of the old lady. She would not ignore others just because she could rent out her own shop. She also gave her a kind reminder, and Zheng Sisi was very grateful to her.
