More than two hours later, batch after batch of small cookies with various animal patterns were ready, and they were inlaid with different nuts or candied fruits.
The flavors are varied and the presentation is good.
Jiang Tiantian found a stack of cardboard with beautiful prints, cut it into square paper boxes, placed the cookies neatly inside, and then found a silk ribbon and carefully tied a beautiful bow on the outside.
"Let's go visit our neighbors." Jiang Tiantian said.
After the couple cleaned themselves up and put on new clothes, they carried a bunch of snack boxes and started visiting every household along the alley.
Jiang Tiantian's craftsmanship and exquisite ingenuity have won praise from almost everyone.
In just one afternoon, all the neighbors in the area knew that the person who bought the yard of old man Wang, who had gone abroad, a month ago was a very young and beautiful couple from other places.
The couple are not only good-looking, but also sweet-spoken, polite and friendly. It is said that the man is a top student at Tsinghua University.
Just before the renovation started, they came to apologize in person with gifts.
Just because of this thought, they also feel that this couple can get along well.
Unlike the household next to them, which made "crackling and banging" noises as soon as they arrived, from morning to night without stopping. Some of them had elderly people at home who could not stand the fright, and they went to remind them several times, but to no avail.
With such a comparison, the difference is immediately apparent, and everyone has a scale in their hearts.
When they reached the last house in the alley, the moment the door was opened, everyone inside and outside the house was stunned at the same time.
Jiang Tiantian wanted to laugh. It is true that we meet each other everywhere in life. And some people, once you meet them, you can't avoid them even if you want to get rid of them.
The person who opened the door was none other than the baby-faced lady they met at the flea market yesterday.
The woman opened the door and saw the people coming. Her pupils shrank drastically and her face looked very ugly. She gritted her teeth and scolded in a low voice, "Who are you? You actually chased us to our house. What do you want to do?"
Jiang Tiantian shrugged helplessly, "Ma'am, I'm so sorry, we didn't come here specifically to see you."
Jiang Tiantian pointed to the yard across from this house, which was five or six houses away. "See? That's our house. We just moved here. Today we just want to get to know the neighbors nearby."
She pointed to the box in her hand and said, "We have visited all the neighbors in front. You are the last one."
The woman was stunned when she heard this, then she relaxed her expression a little and held out her hand, "Okay, I already know, give me the things, and you can leave quickly."
Jiang Tiantian frowned. Why was this woman so disgusted with them?
When ordinary people meet fellow villagers in a foreign land, they may not shed tears, but they should not have such a rejecting attitude, right?
Jiang Tiantian wouldn't believe it at all if she said she had nothing to hide.
Looking at this face that looked like Ah Ku, Jiang Tiantian endured and suppressed the urge to question her directly.
Just as she was about to hand the biscuit to the woman, a voice came from the yard, "Yijun, who is it?"
As soon as he finished speaking, the middle-aged man he met yesterday also appeared at the door.
Seeing the two of them, Qin Yuxiang was also stunned, his eyes a little evasive, but he still strode forward and asked in a low voice just like the woman, "Who are you? What do you want to do by following us into our house?"
After saying that, he turned to look at the woman with an angry face, "Did you invite this?"
The woman looked aggrieved. “I don’t know them.”
Jiang Tiantian looked up at the sky speechlessly, and explained again, "I have no interest in where you live, but since your family is here, I can only say that there is some fate that cannot be avoided."
Jiang Tiantian pointed behind her and said, "See? That's my house. My husband and I just want to visit our new neighbors today."
Qin Yuxiang breathed a sigh of relief after hearing this, and then said a little uncomfortably, "Oh, so you are new neighbors. I'm sorry, I misunderstood you."
Not long after he returned to China, he heard that Uncle Wang from that family sold his house and went abroad to reunite with his son's family. He didn't expect that the people who bought the house in the end were such a young couple.
Qin Yuxiang, who always prided himself on being a rising star in the civilized world, lost his composure in front of a young couple, which made him feel a little embarrassed. So he pretended to be polite and asked, "Do you want to come in and sit down?"
I thought the other party would refuse tactfully, but unexpectedly, Cha Jiuzhang put on a distant smile and directly responded, "Okay, then we will respectfully obey your command."
Qin Yuxiang and the woman were both stunned when they heard this, but the words had already been spoken, and they didn't want to embarrass themselves.
With an awkward smile, he welcomed Cha Jiuzhang and Jiang Tiantian into the yard.
Jiang Tiantian raised her eyebrows and smiled at Cha Jiuzhang, well done!
Just based on the attitude of these two people towards them, she knew that there must be something fishy going on.
In Jiang Tiantian's eyes, there is no difference between A Ku and her brothers. In fact, A Ku and Tan Zhilin mean more to her than the several brothers in the Jiang family.
Since this matter involves Aku, she cannot sit idly by without thoroughly figuring it out. If it brings uncertainty to Aku in the future, she would be too passive if she reacts then.
The two men walked into the inner courtyard and saw a lounge chair in the yard. On the chair was an old man with gray hair, wrinkled face, thin and shriveled, basking in the sun.
Jiang Tiantian was stunned for a moment, because she could see that the old man was very ill. If there was no miracle, he would not last long.
Although he was sick, there was no sadness on the old man's face and his eyes were very calm.
It was as if he had seen through life and death long ago, and was just calmly accepting the arrival of the day destined by fate.
Seeing the two of them, the old man smiled slightly and said, "I haven't seen such an outstanding young couple for a long time. Please take a seat."
"Yijun, go get my can of Wuyi rock tea and treat these two kids well."
The baby-faced woman, Jian Yijun, nodded silently upon hearing this, turned her head to look at Cha Jiuzhang and Jiang Tiantian, then walked towards the storage room.
Qin Yuxiang forced a smile and greeted Cha Jiuzhang and the other man, "You guys take a seat first. I'll go get some refreshments."
Jiang Tiantian stopped him, "No need, I just happened to bring some snacks, they'll be perfect as tea."
As she spoke, she untied the bow on the ribbon, opened the box, and revealed a box full of cookies.
When Qin Yuxiang saw these small cookies with very Western style, he looked at Jiang Tiantian in surprise.
I didn't expect this little girl to have these skills.
"Okay, I'll go get a plate." Qin Yuxiang said, then turned and went into the house.
Jiang Tiantian shrugged and said nothing.
