CHAPTER 213: CHAPTER 213 ORIGINAL SIN 22

The man widened his eyes and pointed at the grilled fish in front of Yun Shuangshuang, "What! Thirty-one! Fifty-one! That’s way too expensive! It’s comparable to restaurant prices! Qingqing, let’s go. If we’re going to eat, let’s eat at a restaurant. It’s not worth spending so much on a street stall."

After the man’s comment, the woman also hesitated a bit. It did seem a bit unreasonable to spend so much money at a street stall for grilled fish. But the aroma was enticing, and she really wanted to eat it.

Even though she wanted to eat, the woman still thought it was expensive, so she tried to bargain with Yun Shuangshuang: "Little sister, your grilled fish is too pricey, can you make it cheaper?"

Yun Shuangshuang was not in a hurry and continued to smile, "Beautiful sister, my grilled fish is non-negotiable. If you try my grilled fish, you’ll know it’s definitely worth the money. How about this, I’ll take a piece of each of the three kinds of fish for you to taste, and then you decide whether to buy or not."

As she spoke, Yun Shuangshuang took out a palm-sized white porcelain dish and skillfully cut a small piece of meat from the grass carp, catfish, and black fish with a knife, then skewered them with a toothpick and handed them to the young woman.

The woman took the plate and carefully examined the three small pieces of fish on it. Indeed, it was different from other people’s grilled fish. There were no miscellaneous seasonings on it, just cleanly grilled fish with a crispy golden color that looked enticing.

The woman first took a bite of the grass carp, chewed it slightly, and her eyes immediately lit up! The fish was flavorful upon entry; although there were no visible seasonings, the layers of taste were extremely rich. After swallowing, there was even a hint of sweetness in the mouth.

After swallowing the grass carp, the woman almost immediately put the catfish into her mouth. The woman usually never ate catfish because she disliked its taste, even when eating grilled fish at restaurants.

But this piece of grilled catfish was different from before. Not only was the taste uniquely aromatic, but unlike the sweetness of the grass carp, the catfish meat was crispy on the outside and tender inside, incredibly delicious!

After the catfish, the woman anticipated the black fish even more. She couldn’t wait to put the black fish into her mouth and then was captivated by the even richer aroma of the black fish! The texture of the black fish was both fragrant and tender. It could be chewed carefully in the mouth, and the more she chewed, the more flavorful it became, making it hard to swallow!

After eating the three pieces of fish, the woman, disregarding the man’s objection, directly decided, buying it! She must buy it! The black fish tasted the best, and the woman immediately specified that she wanted the grilled black fish, ready to eat!

The man was somewhat reluctant, but couldn’t bear to disappoint his girlfriend. He could only take out fifty bucks with a pained heart and pay Yun Shuangshuang, buying the grilled black fish that the woman had already tasted a piece of.

Yun Shuangshuang placed the grilled black fish on a plate, carried it to the small table at the back, and the woman excitedly pulled the reluctantly faced man to sit at the table. She directly picked up a large piece of grilled fish and put it into her mouth, her eyes immediately narrowing in delight.

Seeing that the man opposite hadn’t moved his chopsticks, the woman smilingly picked up a piece of fish and brought it to the man’s mouth, tempting him, "Don’t feel sorry for the fifty bucks. Really, trust me, once you take a bite, you’ll feel that it’s absolutely worth the money!"

Actually, the man wasn’t without craving. This grilled fish’s aroma was the best he’d ever smelled compared to other grilled fish. However, he had a fixed mindset that the most delicious food must be found in restaurants, and no matter how tasty the street food was, it was only so-so.

That’s why the man kept feeling reluctant to spend the money and didn’t really want to eat it. At this point, seeing his girlfriend bring the fish to his lips, he had no choice but to reluctantly open his mouth and take a bite. Then, he was seized by this unprecedentedly delicious taste!

He had eaten a lot of grilled fish before, but it was the first time he’d tasted something so delectable that at that moment, he felt his girlfriend was absolutely right! Spending fifty bucks was not expensive; it was a bargain!

Previously, he had once eaten the best grilled fish in a big restaurant, costing three hundred yuan. But the taste couldn’t compare to this grilled fish! Without needing his girlfriend’s urging, the man immediately buried his head in and started eating vigorously!

In the meantime, someone came by and asked the man if the grilled fish was really that good, to which the man just nodded and ’uh-’ed perfunctorily, but was too occupied eating to respond!

With the visit of this couple, Yun Shuangshuang’s business suddenly picked up, and quickly, two more men came over and ordered two grilled catfish. The two men repeated that man’s previous state, eating non-stop!

Seeing everyone who had eaten react this way, more people who had been observing further back came forward to buy, and soon the seven fish Yun Shuangshuang had grilled earlier were all sold out.

Yun Shuangshuang took out seven more fish and began grilling, again with three grass carp, three catfish, and one black fish. This time, before Yun Shuangshuang finished grilling, they were all reserved, with the black fish taken by the two men.

The couple, surprisingly good eaters, found that even after finishing a particularly filling black fish, it wasn’t enough. So they ordered another grilled catfish to eat!

Once these few grilled fish were cooked, they were gone, and Yun Shuangshuang immediately started grilling another batch. This time, the black fish was bought by the couple, taken away in a package, along with an order of grass carp and catfish, intending to let their family taste it too.

The two men did the same and bought one fish each to take home. Yun Shuangshuang brought out five black fish, and four were gone in a flash, leaving only one. Just as two customers in front wanted it, Yun Shuangshuang had to regrettably tell them there were no more black fish!

These two people were drawn by the aroma and came over, seeing Yun Shuangshuang’s place busy with people, showing that they were well-off and not lacking money. Both aimed for the most expensive black fish. Upon hearing Yun Shuangshuang say there were none left, they immediately became anxious and asked why the black fish ran out so fast.

Yun Shuangshuang wasn’t afraid of the anxious two and sweetly smiled, "Uncles, I’m really sorry. The marination process for this black fish is too complicated, and both my mother and I aren’t in good health, so we can’t make too many. Therefore, the black fish is limited, only five per day, and it’s first come, first served. Uncles might want to try the grilled grass carp and catfish too, they’re also very delicious."

As Yun Shuangshuang spoke, she used two small white porcelain plates to serve two pieces of grilled fish for them to taste. Seeing her cheerful demeanor, they felt embarrassed to get angry. Moreover, after tasting, they found it equally delicious.

Seeing that Yun Shuangshuang’s box containing raw fish was nearly empty, they were afraid if they dallied, even the other two types of fish would run out. So they straightforwardly each bought two grilled fish, and the black fish was simple — they split it, making it fair.

After busying herself for more than two hours, Yun Shuangshuang sold out all the fish she brought that day. The people in the queue, who’ve been eagerly waiting and salivating, were anxious. After smelling the delicious aroma so long, they were just looking forward to tasting it but how come it’s all gone!
