Just as she was getting the hang of what He Yusheng had taught her and had become interested, she was about to play with it a couple more times when Qiao Qiuniang lifted the curtain and came in.

"Le Wa Zi, the sweet potatoes are steamed."

"A pair of Ks, are you going to do anything about it?"

"Oh, it's steamed out? I'm done playing, I'm done playing, let's put away the cards." Anle perked up and was about to collect the cards.

He Yusheng, his face flushed, grabbed Anle's hand.

"No, no, don't take it away! I'm just getting into it, why are you taking it away now?"

I'm about to win this round, let's finish this one first!

"Are you going to interfere with my pair of Ks?"

"There will be plenty of opportunities to play later. You can come and play again later. I'm definitely going to lose this round. Look at my hand, just these few fours, fives, sevens, and eights. I can't win. I admit defeat, is that alright?"

“Then…then these cards—” He Yusheng’s gaze lingered on the cards, unable to leave them.

Anle sighed, waved his hand, and had an expression that said the two brothers were very close and easy to talk to.

"Alright, since you like it so much, I'll sell you this deck of cards. Just give me three taels of silver and you can take it."

"What? Three taels of silver? I thought you were going to give it to me. We're so close, why would you want three taels of silver from me?" Hearing her tone at the beginning, he almost thought this girl was going to give it to him.

“I can’t just give you what the gods gave me for nothing, would that be disrespectful to the gods? You have to give me something in return, at least three taels of silver!”

I've already been lenient by not taking six or seven taels of silver from you, don't be so ungrateful!

"Alright, alright, you're in charge. Who told you to be the darling of the gods? Here, three taels of silver!" He Yusheng took out the silver and slapped it on the kang table, then hurriedly lowered his head to carefully receive the goods.

This thing is really fun, no less so than a Rubik's Cube. If he takes it back, he can find someone to play with and pass the time.

A business transaction worth three taels of silver was completed so readily right under Qiao Qiuniang's nose, leaving her staring intently at the few pieces of silver on the kang table—

She couldn't help but swallow hard. Her little girl was making money way too easily, wasn't she?

In just a few short days, she earned more money than she had ever seen in her life.

Anle stretched out his hand and waved it in front of Qiao Qiuniang's eyes, then casually grabbed a few pieces of silver from the kang table and stuffed them into his pocket.

"Mom, stop standing there, hurry up and bring up the sweet potatoes. Oh, right, bring up the cutting board, knife, and wooden basin too, and also bring a few bowls."

"Huh? Oh, oh." Qiao Qiuniang came to her senses and went out to busy herself. In no time, she had everything arranged on the kang (heated brick bed) in the inner room.

Anle glanced at the object in front of her, unsure of where to begin. Recalling the recipe for taro balls and grass jelly that she had looked up in the system space, she looked at Qiao Qiuniang and began to give instructions.

"Mom, peel all the skin off these sweet potatoes, and then mash them into a paste." I guess by the time they're all peeled, they'll have cooled down, which will be perfect for adding tapioca flour.

Qiao Qiuniang hesitated for a moment, glancing at the sweet potato, reluctant to waste it.

"The sweet potato skins have all been washed clean, so they're edible."

"No, the sweet potato has to be peeled. We can't use the skin. Mother, just do as I say."

Qiao Qiuniang sighed, and with a pained expression, peeled the sweet potato clean, then mashed it into a wooden basin. Following Anle's instructions, she mashed the peeled sweet potato into a paste.

Then, when I looked up, I saw Anle suddenly clasping his hands together in a daze, muttering something under his breath.

As soon as Baba stopped talking, several new items suddenly appeared on the cutting board in front of her.

Staring in disbelief at what was on the cutting board, Qiao Qiuniang was dumbfounded—

This was the first time she had ever seen a god personally bestow something upon her little girl, and she never expected it to actually be true.

The sight before her eyes shocked Qiao Qiuniang, leaving her stunned and speechless for a long time.

Equally stunned was He Yusheng, who witnessed this scene firsthand. He had already seen her prowess on the street before, but seeing this incredible scene in person again left him somewhat speechless.

There really are gods.

But why couldn't the gods hear his cries for help? Why couldn't the gods show him any mercy?

"Alright, Mom, stop daydreaming. Add the flour from the cutting board little by little to the sweet potato puree, knead it together, and make it into a dough."

Qiao Qiuniang's face was stiff, and she licked her dry lips with wide eyes.

"Lewa, are all these... given to you by the gods?"

"Ah, yes, Mother, hurry up and get to work. Young Master He is still waiting to eat the good food we make."

"Hey, hey, let's get to work... let's get to work!"

"Why are the gods so kind to you? Why do they bestow everything upon you?" He Yusheng looked at An Le with bewildered and puzzled eyes.

Anle shrugged and spread his hands.

"Sigh, who knows? I guess I was related to the gods in my past life, and I've come down to the mortal world to experience this. The gods couldn't bear to see me suffer, so they helped me out."

"Is...that so?" He Yusheng's eyes were filled with suspicion.

Anle's words were vague and ambiguous.

"I guess so."

Directing Qiao Qiuniang to cut the dough into small pieces and cook the taro balls, the whole process took another half an hour.

Fortunately, the grass jelly and red beans were already prepared by Anle from the system space, and could be eaten directly.

Finally, add coconut milk, sago, condensed milk, and diced mango, and the taro ball and grass jelly dish is complete.

Staring at the finished taro ball and grass jelly dessert, Anle muttered, "It's finished, but the appearance is a bit lacking. It would be better if it had purple sweet potato and taro."

He Yusheng glanced at the taro balls and grass jelly he had made, then gave Anle a suspicious look.

"You think this dark, unappetizing thing is edible?"

Anle rolled her eyes in annoyance.

"Nonsense, if it's inedible, would I make it for you to eat? Hurry up and try it."

He hesitated for a moment, then picked up a spoon, scooped a spoonful into his mouth, and his eyes lit up. The smooth and fragrant taste was absolutely amazing!

He shoveled spoonful after spoonful into his mouth, speaking incoherently.

"Mmm...delicious, delicious! It's fragrant, soft, sweet, and chewy. It's so delicious!"

Anle clapped her hands and her eyes crinkled into crescents.

"Hey, it's done! You said it's delicious, so it must be pretty good. If I opened a shop selling this, it should sell well, right?"

While busy eating, He Yusheng nodded vigorously, "Yes, yes, if you opened a shop like this, I guarantee I'd be the first to come and support you."

How did you make it so sticky, smooth, and chewy? The taste is also very unique; I've never tasted anything like it before.

But it's much tastier and more refreshing than those overly sweet things.
