The Koi Wife of the Prime Minister

Chapter 137 Going to the next level

She knew that her efforts were not in vain and that she had received recognition and love from customers, which made her feel very satisfied and happy.

In the communication with the guests, Shen Yan gradually put aside the doubts in his heart and focused on his business.

She knows that as long as she does her job well, she can win more support and trust.

So Shen Yan put aside her worries and devoted herself to the task of providing delicious food for the guests.

Shen Yan didn't take the chaos in the Wang family to heart, but Wang Lin saw it.

Wang Lin quietly followed the man, but the man turned around and angrily said, "Little girl, don't follow me!"

Wang Lin ignored him and asked directly, "My name is Wang Lin, and I'm the younger sister of Sister Yan who sells snail noodles. What's your name?"

The man was not very happy. This man was the one whose friend was sick and who wanted to go to Boss Wang to seek justice but was turned down. Now he was carrying his friend and was planning to take him to the clinic.

However, he would not lose his temper with a little girl. Instead, he patiently said, "My name is Wang Biao. Why are you following me?"

Wang Lin crossed his arms over his chest, looking like he was standing up for Wang Biao: "Boss Wang has thrown so much money to you, why don't you take it? It can at least alleviate your current situation, and you still have to see a doctor and get medicine for your friend."

Wang Biao had a blank expression on his face: "Even if I go to borrow, I will never accept charity from this black-hearted merchant."

It seems that his friend did have problems because of the food he ate at Wang’s house, which made Wang Biao very angry.

"If I were you, I would just swallow my anger." Wang Lin said with a smile, "You are being wronged and embarrassed now anyway, and no one believes you, so why don't you just endure it for a while, and when the time is right, you can seek justice."

Wang Biao was slightly startled: "What do you mean?"

Wang Biao's originally frosty brows began to relax.

Wang Lin took out a purse and said, "This is my pocket money, but you need it urgently now. It's enough for your friend to see a doctor. Take it now!"

Wang Biao took a look at the little girl. He needed money now, but this little girl had no relationship with him, so why should she help him?

"What is your purpose in helping me?"

Wang Lin shook her head and said, "No, Boss Wang and his family bullied my sister Shen Yan, which means they bullied me. They are our enemies and your enemies, so I am willing to help you. Take it quickly. Treating the disease is important."

By chance, a carriage came not far away. Wang Lin said with a smile, "Hurry up and get in the carriage to see your friend. There is a family clinic not far away."

After saying that, Wang Lin turned and slipped away.

Wang Biao had no choice but to take the money to buy his friend a doctor when he saw his seriously ill friend.

On the other hand, Shen Yan’s noodles have been sold out. Not much was prepared today, so they would definitely be sold out.

Next, Shen Yan turned on the stove, took out a piece of roasted sweet potato, and started eating it.

The moment Shen Yan turned on the stove, a warm breath spread out, and the fragrance of sweet potatoes filled the air, with a faint sweet fragrance.

She picked up a hot sweet potato with a long bamboo skewer. The skin was slightly caramelized and gave off an enticing aroma.

Shen Yan bit open the skin, a puff of hot steam rose up, the soft sweet potato flesh melted in her mouth, and a sweet taste immediately spread.

She blew on the sweet potato gently, afraid of burning her lips, and then tasted it in small bites, enjoying the unique taste.

The sweetness of the sweet potato lingered in her mouth, warming her heart and dispelling the fatigue of a busy day.

There were bursts of laughter and hawking sounds coming from all around. Amid the bustling crowd, Shen Yan was enjoying this wonderful time alone.

Although business is not particularly booming, she feels satisfied and happy.

After finishing one sweet potato, Shen Yan picked up the second one and continued to taste it, as if she was savoring the taste of life.

She knows that even a simple meal of baked sweet potatoes can make people feel happy and satisfied.

By the fire, Shen Yan quietly enjoyed the peace and beauty.

Next, Shen Yan, who had nothing to do, prepared to close the stall and go home.

On the way home, I happened to meet Sister Xiaolan and her husband, who brought some snails they had caught. This is because Shen Yan is collecting them. She is making snail noodles to sell, so she needs snails.

"Sister Yan is back."

"Sister Xiaolan, Brother Zhong, please come in." Shen Yan invited the couple into the house.

Sister Xiaolan and Brother Zhong walked into Shen Yan's shop and thanked her with a smile.

Shen Yan warmly invited them to sit down, and then served tea and snacks.

"Sister Yan, the snails this time are very fresh. They were just caught from the river."

As Sister Xiaolan spoke, she placed the snails she brought on the table.

Brother Zhong took the snail, examined it carefully, and nodded: "It is indeed very fresh. It seems that today's snail noodles can be sold at a good price again."

Shen Yan smiled and nodded, and said with emotion: "Thank you for your continued support. With the fresh ingredients you provide, my business can do better."

The three of them sat at the table and began to discuss some details of cleaning snails. Xiaolan and Zhong were both veterans with rich experience in how to handle snails, and they shared their own skills and experiences.

Shen Yan listened to their explanations attentively, nodding her head from time to time. She knew that only by constantly learning and improving her skills could she take her business to the next level.

With the joint efforts of the three people, the snails were quickly cleaned and the ingredients for making snail noodles were prepared.

"These snails are ten cents per pound. They are of good quality and clean after being washed. I'll take them all." Shen Yan said, and took the initiative to give a high price. Sister Xiaolan and Brother Zhong were also very satisfied.

With these snails, the main ingredients for tomorrow's snail noodles will be available.

Then, Shen Yan started to cook snails, and Sister Xiaolan helped.

Shen Yan put the purchased snails into the big pot, then gently patted the bottom of the pot to let the snails sink to the bottom.

She watched the water in the pot, waiting for it to heat up and begin to boil.

The water at the bottom of the pot gradually heated up, and tiny bubbles appeared on the surface of the water, as if foreshadowing the upcoming boiling. Shen Yan gently stirred the water in the pot to ensure that the snails were evenly heated.

When the water temperature gradually rose to a suitable level, Shen Yan gently picked up a pair of chopsticks, tentatively scooped out a snail, and gently squeezed it, and found that the snail shell had begun to open slightly, which meant that the snail was partially cooked.

She continued to wait until bubbles appeared on the surface of the water and the water in the pot began to boil. Then she knew that the snails were fully cooked.

Shen Yan quickly turned off the fire, then used a colander to scoop up the snails from the pot and soaked them in cold water to make it easier to peel the shells.
