Chapter 339 Serious Injury

Soon, the vermicelli in front of Lady Xia's stall was sold out. Some people even couldn't buy it and began to ask if they could make a reservation in advance so that they could hand in some...

Oh no, it's all the money!

Pay early, learn how to make hot and sour noodles early, and start making and eating them as soon as the noodles arrive, without any delay.

Xia Mingyue readily agreed to the advance sale and temporarily collected the money paid by everyone. She registered them one by one and then counted all the quantities. She ordered people to deliver the vermicelli needed in the near future to Zhaojiazhuang and asked Zhao Lizheng to urge the workshop to prepare as soon as possible.

The stock quantity was delivered to Zhao Lizheng on the third day.

Zhao Lizheng was holding the paper in his hand, his hands were shaking with excitement.

He was quite worried about the sale of vermicelli, fearing that he could make the vermicelli but could not sell it.

Losing money is one thing, but the bigger worry is that if this happens, the whole village will never recover.

After all, having hope but then having it completely shattered is far more cruel than having no hope at all from the beginning.

But now, the first batch of vermicelli sent to Madam Xia was sold out in just one day, and so much goods were also pre-ordered.

Once all these goods are sold...

Zhao Lizheng couldn't even imagine how happy the people in the entire village would be.

It's not just about how much money you make, it's about the sense of accomplishment you get after accomplishing something, which can't be replaced by anything else.

And all of this is thanks to Madam Xia.

Zhao Lizheng now somewhat believes that what he explained to the villagers before might be true.

Perhaps Lady Xia was really sent here by the ancestors of Zhaojiazhuang after much pleading. At this time, the ancestors were extremely busy accumulating virtues and blessings for their descendants, hoping that they would have a bright future.

As a descendant of Zhaojiazhuang, he must stand up!

Zhao Lizheng took a deep breath, temporarily suppressed his excitement, and then quickly walked towards the ancestral hall.

We must inform everyone of this matter, and at the same time urge the workshop to speed up the work as soon as possible!

In the following days, vermicelli were delivered to Jinqiu County one after another. After receiving the vermicelli, Xia Mingyue distributed them in the order previously predetermined.

At the same time, Xia Mingyue began to teach customers who bought enough vermicelli how to make hot and sour noodles.

The table and stove that the Lu family used to teach Lou Shanzi and others how to cook were still there. Xia Mingyue simply made use of them and continued to use this space to teach everyone how to make hot and sour noodles.

The steps for making hot and sour noodles are not difficult, and the seasonings used are also very fixed. Basically, after learning from Xia Mingyue for a day or two, you will be able to remember them clearly. The rest requires more practice, more familiarity, and more thinking on your own.

The master leads you to the door, but the practice is up to you. Whether you can make hot and sour noodles that tastes just like Xia Mingyue's ultimately depends on your own skills.

Everyone understood this principle, and after memorizing the steps of making hot and sour noodles, they went back to work on it. When they felt it was almost done, they brought it to Xia Mingyue to taste and see if it was up to standard.

Xia Mingyue did not have the slightest impatience towards these people who came back and forth to her store. She gave full affirmation to those who thought the taste was about the same, and gave further advice to those whose skills were not so good.

Xia Mingyue taught carefully and patiently, which made some people's worries disappear completely. They also affirmed Xia Mingyue's act of keeping his word.

When chatting with others, anyone who mentioned Xia Mingyue couldn't help but give a thumbs up, "Ms. Xia is really a person who keeps her word." "Yes." The people around also echoed, "Not to mention that she is really serious and careful in teaching, even if this vermicelli is made into other foods, the taste and texture are much better than the vermicelli you buy normally."

"Next time I buy vermicelli, I'll look for Lady Xia's and Zhaojiazhuang's vermicelli."

"That's right..."

Word of mouth is always the best advertisement. In just a few days, the key words "Xia Niangzi", "Fan Tiao" and "Zhaojiazhuang" had spread throughout the streets and alleys of Jinqiu County.

With its reputation growing, the sales of this vermicelli are getting better and better, and more and more people are following Xia Mingyue to learn how to make hot and sour vermicelli.

In response to this situation, Xia Mingyue had to arrange the courses for teaching hot and sour noodles in different time periods, and the students also attended classes in batches.

In addition, Xia Mingyue selected several outstanding graduates from those who had learned to make hot and sour noodles in the past, gave them a certain amount of remuneration, and asked them to assist in teaching and on-site guidance.

In this way, the overall pressure can be said to be reduced a lot.

Xia Mingyue breathed a sigh of relief.

More than ten days passed in a flash.

As more and more people learned how to make hot and sour noodles, Zhao Lizheng also sent Zhao Sanlin to the county town to sell vermicelli to help Xia Mingyue share the sales pressure.

Xia Mingyue replanned the teaching and sales processes, gradually putting everything on the right track.

After the beginning of the dog days, the weather becomes hotter.

With the arrival of the sweaty dog ​​days of summer, Lu Qiyan and Zhao Youcai returned home.

Zhao Youcai was seriously injured.

The injury was on the ankle. When Zhao Youcai and the entire team were following Lu Qiyan to chase the bandits, they stepped on a trap set by the bandits.

The force of the clamp was so great that when Zhao Youcai stepped on it, he felt an immediate sharp pain in his ankle and blood was gushing out. After examination by a military doctor, it was found that there was a huge crack in the bone and the trauma was extremely severe, with the wound exposing the bone, which was quite serious.

Such an injury is nothing in the military, but because it is the ankle that is injured, if it cannot be healed properly, I am afraid that I will not be able to continue fighting in the future, and it may even affect my normal walking.

There is limited medical supplies in the army, and it is not convenient to recover from injuries. The military doctor admits that his medical skills are not good. After using several sets of military external injury plasters, he suggested that Zhao Youcai return home to recuperate and find a better doctor to see him.

Upon hearing this, Lu Qiyan did not dare to delay even a moment and hurriedly found a car to bring Zhao Youcai back to Jinqiu County and asked Yin Lingyou to take a good look at him.

Xia Mingyue hurried to next door to ask Doctor Yin to come over.

After settling Zhao Youcai to bed, Mrs. Lu saw that half of Zhao Youcai's leg was badly swollen, especially his ankle, which was swollen like a steamed bun. She cried out of heartache.

Lu Qiyan's face was filled with shame, "It's my fault that I didn't take good care of Brother Zhao. Please blame me, sister-in-law."

"Swords have no eyes on the battlefield, and this incident is unavoidable. You have been taking good care of him in the army, and this incident happened suddenly. Even if you have three heads and six arms, I am afraid you can't take care of him."

Mrs. Lu wiped away her tears and tried to calm herself down. "This is not your fault. Don't take it upon yourself."

"It's nothing serious." Zhao Youcai endured the pain in his ankle and grinned, "It's normal to have bumps and bruises on the battlefield. Can't a real man endure this little pain?" (End of this chapter)
