Compared with Liangzhou City, the citizens here in Chang'an City are obviously much richer.
At least in Guangde Fang, where Aunt Luo and their shop is located, the people are relatively wealthy.
There are two markets in Chang'an City, the East and West.
Most of the items sold in the East Market are relatively high-end and the prices are not very affordable, so relatively speaking, it is not as lively as the West Market.
The East and West Second Market does not open every morning, and only does half-day business in the afternoon.
Therefore, Aunt Luo's restaurant also has its best business in the afternoon.
Their fastest-selling item is the braised skewers.
A penny a skewer, delicious and delicious, some idlers walked through several lanes and walked for half a day just to eat the braised skewers from one or two sister's restaurants.
"I heard that here you can exchange sesame water for braised skewers."
This morning, Aunt Luo was making soup to drink, when a little girl of twelve or thirteen years old came to the front of the shop.
"In exchange, you brought the water in exchange."
Aunt Luo patted Zheng's eldest daughter and asked her to help watch the fire.
She walked to the window sill and talked to the little girl.
"See how much I can exchange for these."
Upon hearing this, the little girl happily picked up a small wooden tube in her hand and was about to put it on the counter.
"Come this way, come here."
This counter is used for business.
If it is stained with sewage and leaves a smell, it will be bad.
Aunt Luo quickly greeted people to a small door next to it.
"Hey."
The little girl walked over carrying the bucket.
The second mother opened the small door next to her and squatted at the door.
She checked the things in the other person's bucket and saw that they should be in the goose's belly.
The heart, liver and kidneys had been removed, leaving only a few large intestines and small intestines. , but luckily there were still three goose heads.
Maybe the family didn’t like eating them, and they thought it was too troublesome to put away, so they simply chopped them up.
"I can exchange for four braised skewers," the aunt said.
The main thing is that the three goose heads are pretty good.
Goose heads taste good when braised.
Some customers just like to eat them.
"Seriously" the little girl was so happy.
"Of course."
Aunt Luo smiled and said, "Do the adults in your family know which family you come from to exchange these things for?"
"As you all know, my husband also asked me to exchange a bunch for him to eat."
The little girl said with a smile.
Aunt Luo brought a wooden basin over, poured the half bucket of goose offal into the basin, and then scooped out a ladle of water to help her rinse the wooden bucket.
Finally, she went to the counter, picked four braised skewers, and poured them into the basin.
Wrap a small package in a piece of oil paper and hand it to the little lady.
The little girl hung the wooden bucket on her arm, holding the braised skewers in both hands, and went home.
She had just heard her talk about her husband, and she thought it was a maid from whose family he was.
"Look, madam, this drink is ready," the eldest daughter of the Zheng family asked Aunt Luo in a loud voice.
Aunt Luo walked over with the wooden basin in her arms, took a look at it, and said, "It's almost done.
Let's warm it over low heat.
Remember to stir more often, so as not to burn the bottom."
"Yes."
The eldest daughter of the Zheng family responded.

She squatted down and removed the firewood burning under the stove, leaving only a little charcoal in the stove to continue to warm.
She was still standing in front of the pottery cauldron.
The fire had just been removed. , the stove is still hot, if you accidentally burn it, it will easily burn to the bottom.
Once it burns to the bottom, you won’t be able to sell the pot of syrup for any money.
This drink contains beans, red dates, and a lot of white rice.
These are soaked in water and ground into a pulp, then the residue is filtered and cooked in a pottery cauldron.
A bowl can be sold for a penny.
This pottery cauldron contained dozens of pennies.
On the aunt's side, she took the pot of goose giblets and went to the backyard.
In front of Ma's guest house along the street is the hall, and behind the hall is the middle courtyard.
There is a row of two-story guest rooms.
There is also a place to park horses in the yard, as well as a livestock shed.
Vehicles and animals do not need to come through the hall.
Next to the middle yard There is a side door, and the owner enters the store directly from the hall.
The servants and grooms, guided by the waiter, drive the car around the outside of the guest house and enter through the side door.
However, if you are staying for a short time, you can park your car in the alley next to it and wait there for a while.
Behind the central courtyard, there is a backyard, where the well and the large kitchen are, and there is also a row of houses.
The aunt and the others have been living in the backyard of Ma's guest house recently.
Although Luo Yong had previously bought a yard in Chang'an City, the yard had been lent to Qiao Junlin and the others, and it was not in Guangdefang.
Auntie and the others also had to do business at night.
At dusk every day, after the hundreds of closing drums were beaten, The door of their Guangde Square was locked.
They could walk around in the square, but they couldn't go out.
"That person must be Aunt Luo"
"I heard that the Luo family is not short of money, so why do they have to deal with such filth all day long?"
"How can you not be short of money?
You don't know how much foreign debt Narasaburo owes."
"Why is this so?"
When Aunt Luo walked through the central courtyard with a pot of goose intestines in her arms, several guests in the guest room on the second floor were standing by the window talking.
These people were not staying here, but because the guest rooms in Ma's Guest House were really comfortable, a group of them met here to have tea and talk.
Just such a guest room cost a lot of money for an afternoon.
Aunt Luo had a good ear, so she heard everything those people said upstairs, but she did not raise her head to look.
Instead, she carried the handful of things through the aisle downstairs and went directly to the backyard.
Those gentlemen called the things in her hands filth, as if people would lose their prices if they touched them, but they didn't know how many people in the world couldn't even afford to eat filth.
Beside a ditch in the backyard, two women were sitting on a pony, cleaning the sewer debris collected by Erniang and the others.
A few days ago, Aunt Luo asked a dentist from Guangdefang to introduce these two women.
Aunt Luo and the others didn't know many people when they were new here.
If the Ma family helped to introduce them, there would be a few more people.
Because of the human relationship involved, it would be a bit constraining to use such a person.
It would be better to spend some copper coins and ask Yalang to introduce him.
If it doesn't work well, just return it and ask him to replace it.
"I just collected some more, you can wash them together."
The aunt put the pot of goose on the ground.
"Ma'am, just leave it alone," a woman responded.
"You can go ahead and use the hot water on the stove, but don't be so reserved."
The aunt saw that the hot water on the big stove over there was burning and white smoke was rising, but the two women here seemed to be using cold water, so she went over to help them bring a bucket of hot water.

In the coldest month of winter, if you don't mix it with some hot water, your hands will crack in a few days.
In order to burn the fire walls in Ma's guest house, a lot of firewood is consumed every day.
The stove there is also connected to the fire wall in the guest room.
It is burning all day long, so the hot water is easy to use.
Don’t worry too much, just add some cold water in as soon as you use it.
It's just that these two women are too cautious.
They have been here for several days and Aunt Luo has told them several times, but they still don't go over to fetch hot water.
I heard that Xie Yalang said that these two women were neighbors, and the people in their area were poor.
I don’t know if it was a habit developed from working elsewhere in the past or something else.
They talked very little, and they were also reserved and hardworking.
Not bad.
"After washing these, let's go to the front to eat."
The aunt took a brief look at the garbage and debris they had washed, and she felt a little satisfied when she saw that their work was done meticulously.
"Hey."
The two women responded, with a bit of a smile on their faces.
They came to work at Sister's Restaurant.
Although the wages were not necessarily much higher than elsewhere, the food was really good.
Seeing how happy they were when they talked about eating, the aunt thought it was a bit funny, so she told them not to save hot water, and to throw away those sundries that should be thrown away, and don't scream when the time comes.
The guest tasted something strange and then went back to work.
After a while, the two of them finished the tasks at hand and saw that it was almost time, so they went to the front to eat.
As soon as they entered Ajie's restaurant, they saw the young man from Lishi spreading pancakes.
Thinking that Ajie's restaurant did not sell pancakes, the two women knew that pancakes would be their lunch today.
I saw a big spoonful of batter poured on the big ceramic disc, and then I swiped it with the back of the knife, and a pancake was spread out.
Then I beat an egg on it, spread it on the pancake, and then spread it on the pancake.
Some bean paste, sprinkled with some chopped green onion, put a few green cabbage leaves, rolled and folded, and wrapped it slightly with oil paper.
One woman reached over and took it, while the other woman continued to wait.
The young man spreading the pancakes seemed to know that they wanted a bigger pancake.
He beat the batter well and brushed the sauce quickly.
He spread out a large pancake, rolled it up and folded it, and wrapped it in oil paper.
It was heavy.
A big chunk.
The aunt and the others were making dumplings again at this time, and she didn’t know if they had already eaten them.
When she saw these two women coming to eat, she asked Zheng’s eldest daughter to make them a bowl of hot tofu curd with marinade.
Teng Teng, tastes very good.
The two women held bean curds in their hands and finished eating them one bite at a time.
They put their respective pancakes in their arms and went back to work in the backyard.
After a while, heavy snow began to fall in the sky again.
Upstairs, some gentlemen opened their windows to enjoy the snow and chant poems.
They were chanting about Ruixue.
A group of gentlemen were talking and laughing upstairs.
It was very lively. .
The two women downstairs heard this and laughed too.
The big bag of pancakes was warm in their arms.
No matter how heavy the snow fell outside or how cold the water in the basin was, they didn't feel cold. . gd1806102:
