The Su family’s name had a significant influence. Everyone who visited Su Teng Village knew about the family and their exquisite food. Moreover, Su Binglan’s recent play made the village more memorable.
“Come on, let’s check it out.’
“Yeah, we can return to our shopping later. I’m curious to see what the Su family’s new restaurant is about.”
“There should be free samples, too. It’s an excellent opportunity to taste the Su familys food for free. I’ve never heard of mala hotpot, so I wonder how it would taste.’
“If it’s similar to regular hotpot, it must be just as delicious. Also, it’s right beside the multi-grain pancake shop, which Miss Su developed. She’s such a capable person.”
“Su’ s Mala Hotpot is nearby, dear. Let’s check it out.”
Many more people visited Su Teng Market because it was the Lantern Festival. Everyone wanted to join the fun and see if there would be a new play. People had already bought their New Year’s goods and did not return to Su Teng Market until now.
Moreover, Su Binglan had only hosted the first episode of her play just before the New Year. The number of people who watched the first episode was fewer than those who visited Su Teng Market during the Lantern Festival.
Countless people visited the market that morning because they had finished most of their New Year’s goods. They also wanted to see if there were newer things to buy.
They would visit the market for fun even if they did not buy anything.
Heading to the market was a form of entertainment for the villagers. Soon after arriving at the market, they heard the firecrackers and saw Su l s Mala Hotpot.
Since the restaurant was so close to the market, everyone walked to the end and saw the firecrackers. Immediately after, they rushed to the restaurant to check it out.
Su Teng Market was not as big initially. Later, many more people came to open stalls there, so Chief Su had to expand it. The market even reached the embroider shop and staff dormitories.
Naturally, Su Wenwu opened his restaurant nearby. Even those who had opened their stalls wanted to visit Su l s Mala Hotpot. If two people ran one stall, one would stay, and the other would go.
A couple set up their stall, and the woman urged the man, “Hurry, check out that new restaurant. See what they’re selling, and you might get a free sample. ”
The man hesitantly said, “But we’re supposed to sell things. What if you get too many customers? Can you handle them?”
The woman said, “Of course I can. Aren’t the others around us just as busy?”
After some thought, the man agreed, “You’re right. I’ll take a look then. If I get free samples, I’ll bring some to you.”
A vendor beside the man and woman saw others heading toward the restaurant. He said regretfully, “l would’ve brought my family to help with my stall if 1 knew this would happen. I could’ve checked out the restaurant while my family stayed behind to look after the stall.”
The woman beside him smiled, saying, “We decided to open our stall because we didn’t have much to do for the Lantern Festival. We thought we’d look around after selling our things.
“l didn’t expect the Su family to open another restaurant. Fortunately, we came together. Now, I can look after the stall while he checks out the restaurant.”
The vendor said, “You were wise to do that. My wife and child are preparing dumplings at home.”
“Dumplings?” the woman asked, “Do you eat dumplings during the Lantern
Festival? Don’t people usually eat glutinous rice balls?”
The vendor replied, “1 was reluctant to buy glutinous rice balls. Dumplings should suffice since my family and I had learned to make them. It still feels just as festive as glutinous rice balls.”
The woman nodded in agreement. “You’re right. I think dumplings are delicious, too. My family and I also make meat dumplings for the New Year. Children are so interesting. They like Chinese New Year the most because they can eat dumplings.”
The surrounding vendors felt touched upon hearing the woman’s words. Even adults looked forward to the New Year, not only children. After all, they could eat such delicacies for the celebrations.
These families could only afford noodles during the previous New Year. Since their family’s living conditions had improved, they wanted to eat something more lavish.
Soon after, the vendors discussed Su l s Mala Hotpot again. Several people wanted to check it out. Although some could not leave their stalls, they looked toward the restaurant from a distance.
Everyone was curious to try the free samples, mainly because it was something the Su family had developed. The delicacies the family developed were hard to get because there were too many people to serve.
For example, Su Wenwu’s hotpot restaurants were always full, so people had to make reservations several days before.
“We should still be able to check out the restaurant later. I heard we can get free samples during its opening ceremony, no matter the time.”
The vendors sighed in relief upon hearing that. Although many swarmed toward the restaurant, others were still in the market. Soon, the market became livelier, bustling with noise and activities.
People visited the market with baskets. They would gather and talk about their New Year, what they ate, which relatives they visited, etcetera. They chattered enthusiastically and never got bored.
After catching up, they walked around the market and invited each other to meals. Although it was just common courtesy, everyone was sincere.
Meanwhile, the employees at the restaurant got busy. Su Wenwu had expected to receive many customers during this opening ceremony. However, he did not imagine it would be this crowded.
Even though the shop had two floors, there was not enough space to accommodate everyone. Several people still had to queue at the entrance.
Shen Qiuhua was shocked, saying, “There are even more people than when we opened our first restaurant.”
She remembered helping at the Haggis soup shop. Although the shop did well, it did not receive as many customers as Su l s Mala Hotpot. Shen Qiuhua rubbed her eyes in disbelief at the long queue outside.
Shen Qiuhui had seen the world as the Shens’ patriarch. Even so, his jaw hit the ground when he saw the countless people at the restaurant.
Shen Mohen was helping inside when he looked up and saw the people standing outside.. “Father, am I hallucinating? Am I seeing double, or are there that many people outside?”
