Mrs. Ye said quickly, "That's right, Xiaofei, go find a few people and ask them to help make dumplings for the whole afternoon. I'll pay them a full day's wages."
Yan Fei immediately ran out to look for someone.
Working half a day for a day's pay, everyone naturally rushed to get such a good thing.
Yan Fei didn't dare to look for anyone randomly, so he only picked a few aunts who had a good relationship with his family, often helped his family, and had good character and reputation in the alley to come and help.
Making dumplings is something we all do at home. You can learn it right away without any difficulty.
So Mrs. Ye had some free time and hurried to mix the stuffing.
Pots of dumplings and wontons were quickly served, but new problems arose.
There is not enough bowls and plates.
Seeing this, Boss Ye quickly put down the dumplings in his hand, took the used bowls, plates and chopsticks to the well and started washing them.
Seeing that the Ye family was busy here, Madam Lu was no longer in a hurry to take Qingtian to her home for classes.
This was a very rare example, so Madam Lu used local materials and analyzed the matter with Qingtian in the yard.

"We should have expected that there might be more customers today, so we should prepare more dough and dumpling fillings in advance, and also make as many dumplings and wontons as possible during our free time in the morning."
"Well, it's great that you can think of this now." Madam Lu nodded with satisfaction and asked, "Then what do you think your mother should do next?"
"First, tell the aunties who are here to work today to come and work in the next few days.
“But don’t rush to make a decision, otherwise if there aren’t so many customers later, you’ll end up with too many people and too little work.
"I need to knead more dough and stuffing in the next few days. I'd rather make more and have it ready than have customers waiting outside like today."
Madam Lu asked again, "What if we prepare too much, but not that many guests come?"
This problem is a little bit difficult for Qingtian.
She was so absorbed in her thoughts that she didn't even realize her lips were pouting.
