Chapter 138 Interesting

“She is meditating.”

After hearing what Shi Xiaoliu said, Master Decheng said to him, "You two should stay at home and calm down for a while.

Afterwards, walk around the capital and feel the prosperity of the world. ”

Shi Xiaoliu nodded respectfully: "Master, we will follow your arrangements."

Shi Zelan walked from the backyard to the front yard. Only Shi Xiaoliu came out from the kitchen: "Sister Lan, Master and Uncle Master are out. Do you want some water?"

After Shi Zelan shook her head at him, she walked over and lay down on the table in the yard.

Shi Xiaoliu still brought two glasses of water over and put them down, then sat down and looked at her: "Tired?"

Shi Zelan picked up the cup and drank the water, then shook her head at Shi Xiaoliu: "I'm not tired, I just feel a sense of emptiness from the inside out."

She tried to convey this feeling to Shi Xiaoliu, and he indeed said thoughtfully after hearing it: "Empty, which means it can hold a lot of things."

Shi Zelan thought about it carefully and sighed: "I was indeed a cultivator who only had a few drops of water in the cup and had to shake it vigorously in the cup to prove my existence."

“Pfft, I didn’t know you had this side.

Sister Lan, I still don’t know you well enough. ”

Shi Zelan rolled her eyes at him and said, "Xiao Liu, I'm telling you that from today on, my vision has been broadened and my horizons have been opened up again."

"Good, good, good, congratulations on entering a new realm of cultivation. From now on, you will have a smooth journey and make great progress."

Shi Zelan slapped the table with his hand: "It's over, but I like to listen to it."

Shi Xiaoliu told her about Master Decheng's decision. Shi Zelan nodded repeatedly after hearing it: "Okay, let's make bean cakes. We can have them for breakfast."

"In a couple of days, the aunts would like us to help make a batch of bean cakes. Is this a job for you?"

“I have nothing to do anyway, so I might as well ask them how many bean cakes they want.

Do they prepare the ingredients and send them over, or do we go buy the ingredients and prepare them for them? ”

Shi Xiaoliu smiled: "They said they believed in our character and gave us the same price as the bean cakes sold in the cake shops outside."

"Okay, in a couple of days, go buy some grain, oil, flour, beans, dates, and lots of food to make it."

Two days later, Shi Xiaoliu and Shi Zelan walked out of the yard and when greeting people, they naturally told others that they had gone to the grain and oil store to buy noodles and beans today.

Before noon, the grain and oil store delivered half a truckload of goods. Master Shanzheng received the goods, looked at the invoice and paid the money directly.

At 3 p.m., Shi Xiaoliu and Shi Zelan came back from outside. Shanzheng Zhenren was reading in the yard. He looked up and said to them, "The beans are already soaked."

After Shi Xiaoliu and Shi Zelan paid their respects to Master Shanzheng, they ran to look at the beans soaking in the bucket.

After the beans were soaked, Shi Xiaoliu carefully cleaned the stone mill and prepared to grind the bean powder. Shi Zelan went into the kitchen to knead the dough and light a fire.

Smoke was rising from the kitchen roof. The neighbors looked up and saw it, thinking that Uncle Cheng's family had prepared dinner a little early.

The bean powder is ground, the flour is good, and the fire is in the best condition.

Shi Xiaoliu and Shi Zelan were busy in the kitchen, making one pot of bean cake after another.

The smoke from the kitchen roof grew fainter and soon disappeared.

In the yard, Shi Xiaoliu and Shi Zelan wrapped the cooled bean cakes in oil paper.

"Crack, crack, crack." The courtyard door knocked. Master Shanzheng went over to open the courtyard door and saw five young women standing outside.

"Are you okay?"

Shanzheng Zhenren asked very calmly, and the five young women blushed. The oldest one blushed and said, "We are here to ask about Xiaolan's pancakes."

Shi Zelan walked to the gate of the yard, and Master Shanzheng walked back. The five young women all followed him.

"Are you sisters-in-law here to ask about bean cakes?"

The five young women then withdrew their gazes. Seeing Shi Zelan looking at them curiously, their faces turned slightly red again.

The older woman cleared her throat and said, "Sister Xiaolan, my family wants to buy five pounds of cakes, two pounds of red bean cakes, and three pounds of mung bean cakes."

"Okay, come in."

Shi Zelan handed her the packed pancakes: "One pound per package, here are five packages, give me the price according to the pancake shop."

"Okay." The young woman gave Shi Zelan a piece of silver. She weighed it and said to Shi Xiaoliu, "I need to find ten copper coins for my sister-in-law."

The young woman stared at Shi Zelan with eyes wide open: "Sister Xiaolan is amazing."

Shi Zelan said shyly, "We went to the cake shop to check the prices. We definitely won't ask our sisters-in-law for a single extra penny."

"I want three pounds of red bean cakes."

"I want two pounds of mung bean cakes and three pounds of red bean cakes."

"I want five pounds of mung bean cakes."

"I want one pound of mung bean cakes and one pound of red bean cakes."

The five young women bought the cakes, looked around and at each other as they left, and then they walked out of the yard.

"That Shan Ye is also good-looking."

"Shh, keep your voice down, everyone in their family is good-looking."

"Xiao Liu is young, so Cheng Ye and Shan Ye are more attractive."

"Don't say anything, there's someone coming again."

"Xiao Liu and Xiao Lan are really capable. They made dozens of kilograms of cakes this time."

"My mother-in-law made pancakes at home last time, and I think they are edible."

In the yard, Shi Xiaoliu and Shi Zelan continued to pack bean cakes and they did not close the yard door.

Neighbors stood at the gate of the yard and asked, "Little sister, are you selling cakes?"

"Sell. Sell at the pancake shop price."

Some people came in and bought half a pound to taste, while others stood at the gate of the yard and watched.

Someone said readily: "Brother and sister, please give me two pounds each. I won't buy any other cakes when I go back to my mother's house tomorrow."

Shi Zelan smiled and said, "Sister-in-law, if you eat the pancakes we made this time, you will definitely want to eat them again next time."

The woman looked at Shi Zelan and said with a smile: "Okay, if I think it tastes good, I will definitely buy more next time."

"Sister-in-law, we also want to eat pancakes at home, and we make pancakes every few days.

If you and your family like the bean cakes we make, you don’t have to buy more next time. ”

After listening to Shi Zelan's words, the neighbors felt that she was an honest person. They also saw that the yard was very clean, so those who had originally come to watch the fun came in and bought a few pieces to take home to taste.

It was getting dark and people left the yard.

Master Decheng came back from outside, Master Shanzheng came out of the room, and Shi Xiaoliu walked over and closed the yard door.

Master Decheng saw the pancakes in the bowl on the table and said with a smile, "Xiaoliu, Sister Lan, are these the only pancakes left this time?"

Shi Xiaoliu and Shi Zelan nodded: "Master (Uncle), we made thirty kilograms of bean cakes. The neighbors smelled the aroma and came to buy some to taste."

Master Decheng looked at them with a smile and said, "Okay, we can do it once every ten days or half a month. It won't delay your important work."

Shi Xiaoliu and Shi Zelan nodded repeatedly, indicating that they could make it once every ten days or half a month, but they would save some more for themselves in the future.

Shi Zelan smiled and said, "Uncle Master, did you encounter any interesting people or things outside today?"
