Chapter 44 Chili Meat Sauce

Zhou Tong and Zhou Ni came out to take Zhou in.

Zhou looked at her sister and niece happily.

As for Shi Ding, she naturally knew that the man had something against her.

But what's wrong? She just wants to come and see her sister. She will feel relieved only when she sees that her sister is fine.

"Sister, I brought you something good this time. Just mix it with water and drink it, and you'll know how delicious it is."

Zhou said excitedly to her sister.

Zhou Tong said happily: "Then I must try it."

The two of them have been close since childhood, so naturally they won't be hypocritical or polite.

When Zhou came in, Shi Ding didn't even call her sister.

Zhou didn't care, but she was a little unhappy.

It wasn't for herself, but for her sister.

If this person really cares about her sister and cares about her emotions, she wouldn't be so unkind to her as her elder sister.

But there were some things Zhou was not comfortable saying, for fear of embarrassing her sister.

She already felt sorry for her sister, so as long as her sister felt good, she wouldn't say anything.

After entering the stove, Zhou took out a small bag of kudzu root powder.

"This was given to me by my neighbor. He borrowed his wooden mortar and gave us some when he delivered it. He also taught us how to mix it with water and drink it. It tastes really good."

Zhou Tong asked doubtfully, "Is that the Shen you mentioned earlier who had a bad temper?"

Zhou sighed, "Yeah, who would have thought that she would change for the better all of a sudden and start living a good life with Master Su. I think that's how it should be. Only if we live together in harmony will things get better."

"Now, their house is filled with delicious food every day. I don't know what delicious food they make..."

"I see that Dabao and Erbao are in much better spirits now. They're not like they were before..."

The two sisters were talking, and Shi Ding was listening beside them. After hearing the first few words, he felt a little guilty.

He always felt that Zhou was hinting at something, as if she was talking to him.

He wondered in his heart, could it be that Zhou had figured out something?

No, I probably don't know anything.

After a brief conversation, Zhou went on to teach Zhou Tong how to make Pueraria root powder.

After it was brewed, each person had a bowl. Zhou, Zhou Tong and Zhou Ni all drank it and found it delicious.

"It's delicious, Auntie. It's really delicious."

Zhou said happily, "It's delicious, eat more."

Zhou Tong also likes this kudzu root powder.

After finishing the meal, Zhou said, "By the way, I came here this time to talk to you about making a small food cart, the kind you use to set up a stall. My neighbor, Mr. Su, gave me a deposit of 100 coins, and he will pay me half of the remaining money when it's done."

Zhou Tong understood immediately and said happily, "Don't worry, sister. I will make it as soon as possible in the next two days."

"Thank you, sister."

"Look at you, why are we sisters being polite to each other?"

After explaining what needed to be explained, Zhou was about to go back.

Zhou Tong was reluctant to leave. "Sister, you've come all the way here. Have lunch before going back."

Knowing that my brother-in-law and nephew are still at home, I won’t stay here overnight, but I will at least have lunch there.

Zhou said, "No, there are still many things to do at home. Spring has come, and I have to go to the fields. After the rain, it will be time for spring planting. I am very busy."

Seeing her sister's reluctant look, Zhou also wanted to stay with her for a while longer. She did it just for her sister, to prevent that Shi Ding from getting angry with her. She could only say, "Okay, I'll come over when I'm not busy. If you're not busy, you can stay at my place for a few days too."

Zhou walked back like this.

When she reached the village entrance and looked back, she saw her sister and Ni'er still standing at the door. Her eyes were a little red.

When we were young, close sisters could wear the same pair of pants.

They are the closest sisters. After growing up and having their own families, their sisterly relationship remains the same, but for the sake of each other's well-being, they still cannot be as close as they were when they were children.

But as long as we are doing well and care about each other, that is enough.

Zhou sighed, waved her hand, and left quickly.

Zhou Ni said, "Mom, why doesn't Auntie eat here?"

"Your aunt is doing this for Mom's own good. Just like Mom wants to take you to your aunt's house, even though your uncle is a very kind person, we will try our best not to cause trouble for him."

Zhou Tong felt relieved when he thought about how his sister and brother-in-law had a good relationship, how his brother-in-law was very kind to his sister, and how his sister and brother-in-law's children were also sensible.

After Zhou returned home, she couldn't help but say to Liu Cheng, "I really think that Shi Ding is getting more and more outrageous. I don't know what he's relying on."

Liu Cheng was afraid that Zhou would get angry and do something bad, so he said, "Alright, don't worry about so many things. As long as my sister is happy, that's all that matters."

Liu Cheng felt sorry for Zhou and was afraid that she would be angry.

Zhou said, "Tell me quickly, what exactly does Shi Ding mean?"

Liu Cheng said, "I don't know what others think, but I sincerely welcome your sister to come. It's not because of me, but because I feel that she is your sister and you care about your sister. Let's treat her well. If you are happy, I am happy too."

"You see, you're angry and upset, so I'm not happy either, am I? I'm worried about you."

Liu Cheng doesn't usually say sweet words and doesn't talk much.

But he would coax Zhou.

Zhou has a bad temper, but only Liu Cheng can coax her.

Zhou felt very relieved after hearing this and said with a smile, "You still say such things."

Now she was no longer angry, but after thinking about it carefully, she felt that this was the truth.

Think about it from another angle, it's her mother-in-law. She is nice to her mother-in-law. It's not that she has deep feelings for her. She just thinks that she is her husband's mother and the grandmother of her child. She is nice to her to make Liu Cheng happy.

How nice it is to have a family living in harmony.

Zhou seemed to have guessed something about Shi Ding, and her lips moved, but she still didn't say it out loud.

Don't talk nonsense without evidence.

…

On Shen Yueyao's side, the family had a good lunch.

In the afternoon, Shen Yueyao started making chili meat sauce with Su Erya.

Su Erya asked, "Aunt San, after we make the chili pork sauce, should we use it to set up a stall?"

Shen Yueyao said: "Well, now we are making low-cost products. If the market goes down, we can still make money if sales increase."

"Once we make more money, we can start other businesses or open a store."

It’s not a good idea to set up a stall all the time. If the weather is hot, it’s unbearable to be outside in the sun.

It’s much better to open a store. You don’t have to worry about wind, sun, rain or snow.

However, if you open a shop, you will need more money.

"Aunt San, if you open a shop, I will go and help you."

"good."

The thought of opening a shop made the two of them motivated to work.

After working hard for an afternoon, the meat sauce is ready.

Shen Yueyao was stirring a large pot of chili meat sauce in the pot.

The rich fragrance wafted from far away.

Su Erya exclaimed, "Aunt San, with just a little bit of meat, you can make a big pot of chili meat sauce. It's incredible."

One pound of meat can make more than ten pounds of meat sauce.

This is because Shen Yueyao used large pieces of meat. If the meat was smaller, she could make more than 20 kilograms of chili meat sauce.

Shen Yueyao scooped a spoonful with a spoon and handed it to Su Erya, saying, "Try it and see how it tastes."

During this period, Su Erya followed Shen Yueyao and learned to appreciate the flavors.

But she thought everything was delicious.

"hot."

After taking a bite, Su Erya felt it was spicy, but after a while, she felt it was delicious.

"If it's spicy, just take a bite of the steamed bun."

Su Erya hurriedly took a bite of the steamed bun.

In addition to making roujiamo in the morning, Shen Yueyao also made a few steamed buns with the dough that was fermented last night.

It is just for the convenience of eating with chili meat sauce.

Although the steamed buns are still cold, they taste just the same.

Mainly because the steamed buns made by Shen Yueyao are soft and sweet.

Su Erya exclaimed in amazement: "Wow, this is so delicious, Third Aunt, I feel like I can eat several steamed buns just like this."

“It’s so delicious.”

“This is just the right amount of spicy, not too spicy.”

After picking some peppers yesterday, she tasted them and realized they were very spicy.

Shen Yueyao knew what was going on, and went back into the inner room to let Su Xueyi have a taste.

"Just eat a little bit. It's a little spicy. I'm afraid your body can't handle it."

Su Xueyi has a weak constitution and coughs from time to time, so Shen Yueyao doesn't dare to let him eat too much chili peppers.

Otherwise, when she stir-fries rapeseed at noon, she will add two chili peppers for seasoning.

Sometimes adding some chili peppers to stir-fried dishes makes them more flavorful and goes well with rice.

Su Xueyi knew that Shen Yueyao asked him to taste it, and also knew that she wanted to use the chili meat sauce for business.

So he needs to taste it carefully and give his opinion.

Su Xueyi didn't care about her health and ate a spoonful of it with a spoon.

Shen Yueyao didn't react at all, "No, don't eat so much, it's very spicy."
