Chapter 127 Children from Distant Relatives
Shen Hanxing turned to look at him: "Let's go, let's go help."
Little Abu's expression, which had been a little lost, immediately brightened up: "Okay."
Ma Yinghe and Wen Chengwen came back carrying a lot of mops. Originally, Old Man Wen asked them to drive a ox cart, but the two were afraid that they would need the mops, so they simply walked back carrying the mops.
"Hey! Whose child is this?"
Ma Yinghe saw little Abu standing in the kitchen with a look of curiosity on her face.
When Wen Zhen saw the two of them, a smile appeared on his face: "Dad and Mom, you are back."
"We were afraid you would be too busy, so we rushed back."
"Brother Shen came to help me early this morning. He wasn't as busy as I thought."
"Hello, uncle. Hello, aunt." Little Abu knew that these were Wen Zhenyi's parents, and he called them obediently.
Wen Zhenyi repeated the same words he had said to Wen Yongman: "Mom, can we take care of him for a few days?"
"Of course, we have an empty room anyway." Ma Yinghe quite likes this well-behaved little Abu.
Wen Chengwen also got busy as soon as he came back: "Yi Yi, what do you want to do?"
"Dad, I need to grind some coconut milk."
"Okay, I'll grind it for you now. I'll keep the coconut dregs for you."
"Well, keep it."
Ma Yinghe also rolled up her sleeves and began to peel the lychees that had not been processed yesterday.
Little Abu sat next to her: "Auntie, I can help."
Ma Yinghe looked at him and smiled, "Okay, I'll teach you."
Little Abu learned very seriously. Although he often damaged the lychee flesh, no one would say he was wrong and instead said he was doing a great job.
Wen Zhenyi poured sweet potato flour into a basin, added boiling water and stirred it until it became a lump. When the temperature was lower, he added the steamed taro, kneaded it into taro paste and mixed it all together.
Chen Hanxing was boiling brown sugar water in the pot to make ice jelly and cold shrimp.
Wen Zhenyi plans to make a simple version of Qingbuliang today, and add some red beans and mung beans tomorrow.
She poured the prepared pearls and taro balls into water and cooked them, then scooped them out with a colander and rinsed them in well water.
Wen Chengwen has also ground out a lot of coconut milk.
Wen Zhenyi also added coconut milk to blend the taste. There wasn't much Qingbuliang available today, so it was first come first served.
After preparing the cold dishes for today, their shop reopened.
As soon as the guests saw them open the door, they all ran inside.
"It's so hot, it's more comfortable to stay in your store. Standing outside will dry you out."
"Yes, I feel a chill as soon as I come in."
Ma Yinghe greeted the guests with a smile: "Come on, sit down and have a rest."
"Boss lady, have you finished everything?"
"It's done. I'm worried that my daughter won't be able to handle it alone."
"Your business is good, but it's also worrying."
"That's right."
"Boss, what do you have today?"
"Brown sugar ice powder cold shrimp, refreshing and refreshing."
"What is Qingbuliang?"
"Coconut milk with lychees and some other things in it. It's delicious."
"If you say that, I have to have a bowl."
Wen Chengwen looked at them and said, "Let me tell you first, this Qingbuliang is not cheap. Please order according to your needs."
Many customers reluctantly changed to a plate of ice jelly and cold shrimp, while two customers ordered a plate of clear soup to try the flavor.
Wen Zhenyi put all the desserts into bowls, and they just had to come in and take them out.
She also prepared a portion of Qingbuliang for Xiao Abu and Shen Hanxing: "This is for you."
Little Abu looked at the milky white coconut milk and asked: "Sister, is this milk?"
Wen Zhenyi looked at her with a smile: "This is not milk, this is coconut milk. Smell it, it tastes different from the milk you have drunk."
Little Abu smelled it and found that it was indeed different from the milk he had drunk before. It smelled very fragrant and was something he had never tasted before.
Shen Hanxing scooped a spoonful with a spoon and found pearls, taro, taro balls, and lychees in it: "There are a lot of things in it."
Wen Zhenyi sat next to him and took a break: "You can put a lot of things in it, you can also put shredded coconut. I don't have time to make it today, but you can consider adding it tomorrow."
"I see you're soaking red beans and mung beans. Are you planning on adding those in tomorrow?"
"Well, you can add a lot of things to it, depending on your preferences."
“Can we add various fruits as well?”
"Can."
Chen Hanxing scooped a spoonful and put it into his mouth. Various flavors blended in his mouth: the fragrance of coconut, the chewy texture of taro balls and pearls, the sweetness of lychees, and the softness of taro. All kinds of flavors blended in his mouth.
It's not annoying, but makes people want to stop.
Little Abu had already finished the bowl of Qingbuliang in his hand and licked the corner of his mouth with his little tongue: "It's delicious. I have never eaten such a delicious dessert."
Wen Zhenyi scratched his nose and said, "There are so many things you haven't eaten."
Little Abu looked into the bowl and said, "If only my sister were here, I would give her all the delicious food."
"When I find your parents and sister, I'll treat you and your family to a meal."
Little Abu looked up at her: "Really?"
"real."
Shen Hanxing also finished the Qingbuliang in the bowl unconsciously: “I find that my appetite seems to be getting better and better when I eat the food you cook now.”
Wen Zhen smiled and said, "Isn't this a good thing?"
“I’m afraid it will be even harder to eat food made by others in the future.”
Wen Zhenyi was slightly stunned. She didn't seem to have considered this question. "That's a problem. Why don't you just follow me from now on?"
"That seems like a good idea."
Wen Zhenyi's mouth twitched: "I'm kidding, aren't you planning to take the imperial examination?"
"The county exams all require a day inside, and they last five consecutive days."
"Can I bring food?"
"Yes."
"When is the exam?"
"This year is over, and we have to wait until next February."
Wen Zhenyi thought for a moment and said, "Then next February, but if you come here to work as my accountant, will it affect your exam?"
"I think passing the county exam shouldn't be difficult."
"It seems that our future Shen Xiucai is very confident."
Shen Hanxing looked at her with a smile: "You still have to have this confidence."
"Yi Yi, the ice jelly and cold shrimp are out of stock." Ma Yinghe went to the hall carrying a tray.
"Okay, I'll prepare it right away." He got up and went to the kitchen.
Little Abu watched her leave, then turned to look at Shen Hanxing: “Sister is fine.”
"I know." After saying that, Shen Hanxing took the two people's dishes to wash, and then went to help in the kitchen.
After closing the shop, Ma Yinghe and Wen Zhenyi talked about things in the village.
Wen Zhenyi shook his head helplessly: "The Zhu family has brought this upon themselves."
"That's right. Little Peach had regained some vitality, but now it seems like someone has sucked out her soul."
