Cheng Minhong gave Ning Wazi some toys to play with, and then sat down with her two sisters to design fonts.
The making of word candies requires a certain skill, and currently only Cheng Yue knows how to do it, but she thinks that it can be done with some instruction from the servants at home.
She drew the molds for Mi Pangtang and Zi Tang, and asked Xue Hanyu and Cheng Minhong to design the fonts.
May you be rich and auspicious, have peace all year round, wish you prosperity, be filled with gold and jade, have the five blessings come to you, be smooth sailing, and be perfect...
Cheng Yue had finished drawing the model, but the other two had not yet finished writing the auspicious words.
"Hahaha, we're a big production! We hope that our makeshift workshop can earn a thousand taels each before the New Year!"
Cheng Yue looked at so many words with good meanings and laughed.
"Sister Yue, what kind of candy is this word candy? I haven't even tried it. Will anyone buy it?"
Cheng Minhong asked doubtfully.
"Yes, you can rest assured! Besides, we won't sell them too expensively, but if we accumulate them little by little, we can not only sell them individually but also give them to peddlers to sell on their shoulders."
Cheng Yue said.
"A thousand taels! I can't even imagine earning a thousand taels a month on my own!"
Xue Hanyu said in surprise.
"Sisters, believe me! Follow me and you will definitely get rich. We won't make a fortune, but a small fortune a month will do!"
Cheng Yue said with certainty.
"I want one too!"
Ning Wazi said while holding the toy and looking up.
"Okay, baby! Auntie will give you a silver ingot when the time comes, but you have to listen to what the aunties say!"
Cheng Yue patted Ning Wazi's head.
"Um!"
Ning Wazi nodded solemnly.
…
In the evening, all the children of the Cheng family went to Shanshui's house, and they did not allow Jiang and others to follow them, not even Cheng Wu.
Cheng Yue talked to Jiang and Cheng Shun about borrowing He Gui's mother-in-law and daughter-in-law to go over there and teach the servants of Shanshui's family how to do some things.
The old couple had no doubts.
In just one afternoon, the raw materials and molds were purchased.
Cheng Yue secretly asked Li Tiezhu to find someone to make the bellows for Mi Pang, and it is now in Shanshui's yard.
"Jinxing, Minghao, you two are both very strong martial artists. Come here and I will teach you!"
When Cheng Yue was ready, she waved and called two people over.
Now that everyone is here, Ji Minghao no longer looks indifferent like before.
"Like this, let me show you how to do it first!"
Seeing that the two were obedient, Cheng Yue was in a good mood and demonstrated.
Pull the bellows, shake the stove, add charcoal, and in just a quarter of an hour, the rice turns into plump white rice balls.
He Gui Niang and He Gui's wife were already preparing sugar and oil in the kitchen. Cheng Yue gave them a lecture for quite some time in the afternoon!
"Grandma, do you think this is done?"
He Guijia ran out and asked.
"Alright, alright! Jinxing, Minghao, quickly carry the rice dumplings over here and put them in the pot. You two are strong, so stir them quickly and make sure every grain of rice dumpling is coated with sugar and oil!"
"Jinyan Mingzhu, you two take the crushed peanuts and sesame seeds and pour them in here!"
"Hanyu, Minzhu, follow He Gui Niang and the others to set up the mold!"
Cheng Yue quickly gave orders.
The servants of the Mo family wanted to help, but Cheng Yue asked them to watch first, as they would be busy later!
"Alright, alright, Jinxing, Minghao, quickly pour what's in the pot into this mold!"
Cheng Yue saw that it was almost done, so he asked the two of them to start again.
