Captain Huo helped his wife hold her shoulders and said, "Silly wife, why are you comparing yourself to them? Your value doesn't lie in hard labor.
Don't do it yourself. If you don't trust others, just let Huo Qing and the others do it. They'll be fine after they finish selling cakes during the day."
Xiangnan thought for a moment and said, "Originally, I wanted them to go out and do sales to expand our yuba sales, but now I don't have anyone I trust, so I have no choice but to let them come first."
She still let Huo Yun go to manage the sales, while Huo Qing and Huo Sheng came to help her make bean curd sheets.
Xiangnan asked, "Did Huo Sheng go to high school?"
"Well, I told him to go to college but he refused, so I just let him go. I don't know what his mind is on."
Hood didn't care much about his brothers. If they asked for money, he would give it to them, but he would give them nothing else.
"I'll ask him about his math tomorrow. We need someone who can keep accounts in this workshop."
"Okay, wife, it's getting late. I'll help you massage while you sleep." Huo De felt really distressed when he saw that she had to think about work after working hard for half a day and resting in bed.
But he couldn't help. Not to mention that his leg was injured now, even if he wasn't injured, he had his own things to do and couldn't help her share the burden.
Xiangnan coquettishly hugged his waist, her favorite strong waist, and reached out to touch his perfect mermaid line, feeling extremely satisfied.
"Husband, kiss me and I won't feel tired."
Captain Huo could not accept such an invitation. He originally thought that he would let her go because she was tired today, but this girl was asking for trouble.
If this girl comes to you on her own, she will get angry with you if you don't satisfy her.
When Xiangnan woke up the next day, her back and waist were really sore. She decided to let Huo Qing take over her job of cooking soy milk and extracting bean curd sheets, so that she could completely free herself.
She would rather ride her bicycle to the next town to sell cakes. She actually thought about going to the next town to take a look, but she also had to make braised bean curd today and send it to the county in the afternoon.
It is difficult to store braised bean curd in the hot summer, so I made it and sent it to state-owned restaurants. They have freezers anyway and can store a lot of it.
Before she could leave for the county, Zhang Qiu called a BAIC pickup truck that was used to purchase goods for the state-owned restaurant to come to Daxiang Village.
As soon as the pickup truck entered the village, it was chased by a group of children admiring it.
"This car is so fast! There's room for people in the back! We can climb on top."
The children chased after the truck and wanted to climb onto the large open-air platform on the back to experience the ride in a car they had only seen on TV.
The blue pickup truck stopped in front of Xiangnan's house, and the wild children swarmed onto the back of the pickup truck.
Zhang Qiu saw this scene as he got out of the car and shouted, "Get down, get down. If you fall while climbing up, I won't take any responsibility."
Dabao, Zhou Xiumei's daughter, jumped out of the car and rushed into Xiangnan's house, shouting, "Sister Xiangnan, Sister Xiangnan, your family has a really cool car. We can all get in. It can seat a lot of people."
Xiangnan ran out of the kitchen. She was braising bean curd sheets. When she heard this, she went out and saw Uncle Zhang chasing the children away.
She was surprised and asked, "Uncle Zhang, how did you find my house?"
Zhang Qiu saw her and quickly walked over. "I have something urgent to talk to you about. Do you still have that roast duck? There's a meeting in the county tomorrow, and the boss specifically wants roast duck. We need two roast ducks for each of the twenty tables."
Xiangnan shook his head: "There is no baked food left. We can bake it now. There is no rush. We can bake it in one night. But why rush it?"
Zhang Qiu smiled and said, "Your roast duck is delicious. Today, the county party secretary brought two people to the state-owned restaurant for dinner. After eating your roast duck, he said he would arrange it for the table at tomorrow's meeting.
This conference is the first time that our county has hosted leaders from the city. I heard that there are also leaders from the province. The secretary was just worrying about what to serve them, and now it just so happens that he got to taste your roast duck.
And your stewed dishes have all been arranged. If you have any fresh vegetables, you can just bring them out. Aren’t you usually the most creative? "
The leaders of the city and province have all seen and eaten everything, no matter what kind of fish or meat they want to eat. They are tired of eating them, and they use these same treats wherever they are entertained.
The county party secretary wanted to give them something new, something that would make them happy while eating and remember An County.
"Then make more braised dishes. The braising liquid is ready, and I'll make some other things, such as chicken wings, duck wings, duck necks, pig ears, and pork cartilage, and braise them in them.
"Take it home tonight and put it in the freezer to keep it cold. Then take it to the table for dinner tomorrow. It will be very delicious when it's cold," Xiangnan said calmly.
Zhang Qiu said anxiously: "Where can we get so many duck wings and duck necks at this moment..."
"I have an idea. You drive over here and take me to the Universiade Village."
Zhang Qiu nodded, put on a straw hat and climbed onto the pickup truck. The sun was already very bright at this time. There was only enough space for two people in the front of the pickup truck, and she didn't want to squeeze with them.
Fortunately, there was a strong wind when driving, so it wasn't too hot despite the sun.
Dabao and a few other kids chased the car for a while, yelling, "Sister Xiangnan, can I sit in and play with you?"
Xiangnan shook her head: "Sister has to do some work and can't take care of you. Next time I buy something and I'll take you out to play."
Dabao stopped with a few wild kids and said, "Stop chasing. When Sister Xiangnan buys a car, we can ride in it!"
"This car is very expensive. Sister Xiangnan can't afford it." Someone said immediately.
Dabao snorted, "Sister Xiangnan can definitely afford it. She always keeps her word. She said she would build a workshop, so she built one. She said she would buy a refrigerator, so she bought one. She can even sell her bean curd cakes.
Soon she'll have enough money to buy a car."
"The car costs tens of thousands, but she only makes a few cents from bean curd sheets and cakes. How much does she have to sell to make that much? She's just trying to fool you."
"I believe her, I'll have a car soon!"
Xiangnan didn't know how much Dabao admired her. She was discussing tomorrow's dinner with Zhang Qiu.
Zhang Qiu said: "This is a big event in the county. Many of the people attending the meeting are senior leaders. Although our chef's dishes are delicious, they are all dishes that the leaders are used to eating.
The same goes for the chefs in the guesthouse. They all have good skills, but they don’t know how to innovate.
Ever since you started selling vegetables to our state-owned restaurant, I've felt that the dishes need to be updated. The newer the food, the more interested they will be.
This time, the two chefs were almost scared. The county party secretary said that if their performance did not satisfy the higher-ups, they would be fired.
Xiangnan smiled and said, "Both chefs still have their skills, so there's no need to worry about being fired. They can still do well elsewhere, but they do need to consider researching new dishes.
It would be good if they could understand what happened this time, but I'm afraid just some braised dishes and roast duck won't be enough to satisfy these leaders."
Zhang Qiu sighed, "That's right. The other dishes are still the same. It gives me a headache just thinking about it."
