Lin Zixing, dressed in fine clothes, walked over, waving a fan.
She didn't forget to instruct Bai Qiaoyin, who was accompanying her, "You should learn from this child too."
These words made Bai Qiaoyin feel like she was being churned with jealousy. Overwhelmed with mixed feelings, she finally said with a pale face, "What you say is true, young master."
Lin Zixing didn't even look at what she looked like. He greeted Jiang Mingzhu with a smile, "What, still no business today?"
Despite the man's approval of her views, Jiang Mingzhu remained wary. "I don't have time today. Please come another day, Mr. Lin."
"When would be a suitable time?"
Jiang Mingzhu hesitated slightly, "The shop will be open tomorrow or the day after."
Lin Zixing put away his folding fan. "I see. Then I'll come and bother you again later." He glanced down at what Jiang Mingzhu was holding.
The oil paper package was folded nicely, and inside were meatballs and spring rolls.
However, he was always lazy and only liked to eat prepared food, so he turned around and left without lingering there any longer.
Bai Qiaoyin glanced at it indifferently, tossed out a silver ingot, and said, "I'll buy it."
“We don’t need that many,” Jiang Mingzhu said neither humbly nor arrogantly. “Ten coins a serving is too much from Manager Bai.”
"Consider the rest a reward to you, and thank you for teaching me this lesson."
The woman's voice was no longer like a nightingale's warbling; each word carried a hint of gritted teeth.
Jiang Mingzhu held the loose silver coins, maintaining a smile on her face.
My mother said that doing this job would definitely involve some hardship.
But since she had agreed, she had to swallow all the grievances, no matter how great they were.
Besides, didn't we make money?
These small pieces of silver have actually reduced the cost of these items.
"You're welcome. I hope it can be of some benefit to Manager Bai."
The girl was indeed aggrieved, but she didn't hold back with her words.
Bai Qiaoyin glared at her fiercely, "You'd better watch yourself."
He kept his voice very low, as if afraid that Lin Zixing would hear him.
She turned to leave, but was bumped by someone, and Li Si Niang returned.
"Alright, alright, ten coins it is. Are you sure this stuff is okay? If you get a stomachache from eating this, I won't let you off the hook."
Jiang Mingzhu looked at the stacked copper coins, smiled, and handed over a bag of ingredients, saying, "It's perfectly fine to eat tonight."
Li Si Niang left with the things.
The obese woman encountered Bai Qiaoyin again. Looking at the alluring and beautiful woman, she had a hint of displeasure in her eyes. "What are you doing blocking the way?"
Dressed so flamboyantly, she's clearly a restless vixen who loves to seduce men.
Li Si Niang muttered something as she left.
Bai Qiaoyin's eyes were clouded as she watched the departing figure for a long while before finally leaving herself.
For some reason, Jiang Mingzhu felt a little flustered as she watched Bai Qiaoyin leave gracefully.
This woman is always targeting them.
I wonder what they'll be up to this time.
This feeling makes one's heart ache...
"How about it?"
Turning around and seeing the people coming out, Jiang Mingzhu smiled, "We probably won't sell too many."
There's still a lot left.
Gu An'an also noticed that there were still many left.
"Then let's not bother with all that. How about Mom fries you some fried dough balls and spring rolls for dinner tonight?"
It's definitely impossible to keep it there.
Deep-fry it.
Anyway, her family doesn't lack oil; Gu An'an bought quite a lot of rapeseed oil before.
You can eat it like this?
The girl's bright and beautiful face gained a touch of coquettishness. "Okay, I'll start the fire."
"Come on, let's pack up and go home."
...
Meatballs are cooked food, just boiled.
Now, after being deep-fried again, it's crispy on the outside and tender on the inside, making it even more fragrant.
Gu An'an, who was used to the strong flavors of takeout in the 21st century, also thought this tasted good. The reason was simple: these days, anything with oil tastes good. Fried food is not junk food; on the contrary, it is in high demand.
That's why desserts are so expensive.
After scooping out the last batch of fried meatballs with a strainer, Gu An'an, on a whim, fried them again.
After the meatballs had been fried twice, Gu An'an took a bite and found them a bit hard.
Damn it, it's overcooked.
This was a complete mishap.
Jiang Mingzhu was very accommodating, saying, "It's quite delicious, and it's good for your teeth."
Gu An'an: "..." Actually, the last sentence was unnecessary.
After Gu An'an put the meatballs through some work, they were eventually made into a soup, which tasted pretty good.
Since these are meatballs, if there's too much flour, they'll probably fall apart into a paste in the end.
Deep-fried meatballs can be kept for a couple more days, so at least there's no food waste.
Gu An'an ate a bit too much for dinner. After tidying up, she saw her siblings reading and recognizing characters in the study, and then she quietly left.
Unexpectedly, I saw Jiang Yong'an as soon as I stepped out the door.
This surprised Gu An'an.
What are you doing here?
Jiang Yong'an looked at the frightened people and said, "I went up the mountain to hunt a deer this afternoon. Do you want to take the children back to eat roasted venison tomorrow?"
When he went up the mountain to cut down trees to make beams, he accidentally saw the deer. Since he had encountered it, he naturally had no reason to let it go.
Remembering how happy the children were to eat the rabbit meat at lunch, Jiang Yong'an came here as if possessed.
Unexpectedly, they ran into Gu An'an as she was leaving.
Gu An'an shook her head, "You can keep it for yourself." It's not like you haven't eaten it before, there's no need to be so excited about it.
Besides, does she even need to keep her shop running? How could she possibly go to Jiangjia Village every day?
