"Recently, the liangfen business hasn't been doing well. Before, two pots of liangfen wouldn't be enough to sell in an afternoon, but now we've reduced it to one pot, and sometimes there's still quite a bit left over," Mrs. Jiang said, not very optimistic.
Although, compared to smoked sausages, liangfen doesn't bring in much silver, it's been a steady income every day for so long that it's a bit hard to let it go all of a sudden.
On the other hand, Lin Sanshui didn't have much change in his mood and decided, "Liangfen is a summer food. It's normal not to sell it when the weather gets cold. In my opinion, we might as well stop the liangfen business altogether. Our whole family can do the smoked sausage business; it makes much more money than liangfen."
Gu Nian seized the opportunity and said, "Dad is right. As the weather cools down, liangfen will only sell less as it gets colder."
"Well, that's how it has to be," Mrs. Jiang said helplessly.
