When she left Yin Bolan's house, she noticed that there were four huge pots of dripping lotus in the shade behind Yin Bolan's gate. These are also called dripping Guanyin and Buddha's hand lotus.
Each of these four pots of flowers is about 1.5 or 1.6 meters tall.
The irritation that had just been suppressed surfaced again.
Although this flower is an ornamental flower and is quite common in later generations, flowers that prefer shade and water always attract some unclean things.
In addition, Yin Bolan sometimes speaks strangely, so it is difficult for her to avoid thinking too much.
"Orange, what's wrong?"
Ling Ju looked at Zhen Zhen who was standing aside. "It's okay. It's just that these flower pots are so big, it's a bit strange."
Zhen Zhen walked over to the flower and said, "This flower is afraid of the cold and needs to hibernate in winter. I guess it will have to be moved into the house in the next two days."
As she spoke, she fiddled with the leaves of the flower.
Ling Ju saw that the lotus leaves were like human hands, resting on Zhen Zhen's shoulders.
Just as she was about to make a sound, Zhen Zhen left the flowerpot and pulled out a key from underneath, "Let's go."
Ling Ju didn't know if it was because of her eyesight or what, but she always felt that the flower looked weird.
"Let's go, get out of here quickly."
After leaving the house and locking the door, Zhen Zhen threw the key directly into the yard. Her movements were very skillful. It seemed that she had become quite familiar with Yin Bolan during this period of time.
As Ling Ju walked, she couldn't help but look back at Yin Bolan's yard. For some reason, she always felt like someone or something was staring at her from behind.
But there was nothing behind him, nothing at all.
After the three of them returned to the courtyard, she called Monkey and Dashan to inform them that the mission was over and they could return to Beijing at any time.
Monkey and Dashan's 'box lunch' business has also come to an end for the time being.
Unexpectedly, after going out to do business, the two of them earned a few hundred yuan when they returned.
On the day of closing the stall, the two of them cooked all the ingredients and gave them away for free to the workers who often came to eat at the factory.
The next day I boarded the train back to Beijing.
Coincidentally, they met Liu Qing in the car who was also returning to Beijing, but Liu Qing was alone and did not recognize them.
During the conversation, Liu Qing also asked them what they did for a living. They replied that they were transferred from the kitchen team and originally wanted to go to Jiangsu Province to find a job, but they didn't find one and had spent all their money.
So I had no choice but to return to Beijing.
Liu Qing comforted the two of them with a few words and did not suspect anything else.
When they arrived in Jing City, they found that Liu Qing did not go to Liao Province, but directly changed trains to Tianjin City.
During the week of waiting for Song Wei to come back, Ling Ju went to Chuan Xiaoxiang and then to Li Shiming's house.
She went to Sichuan Xiaoxiang to deliver beef sauce. She made some more after making it last time. She slightly improved the recipe based on the previous one, adding more chili peppers and some sugar to enhance the flavor.
After finishing, she took a can of the previous one and a can of the new recipe to Chuan Xiaoxiang, wanting Sun Jun to try it to see if it tasted good. After tasting it, Sun Jun nodded and gave a thumbs up.
"Auntie, what do you think? Can I open a workshop and sell beef sauce?"
Sun Jun thought for a moment and replied, "Yes, but there's too much beef in this sauce. If you sell it cheap, you won't make any money, and if you sell it expensive, few people will buy it. You can adjust the beef ratio and add some fat to keep the cost down while still making it chewy. It should be a little saltier, otherwise it won't keep well in hot weather. But if you sell it in small jars, it will taste great, slightly salty, and goes well with rice, noodles, or steamed buns. We northerners can't handle spicy food, so the first level is for home consumption, and the second level can be sold to restaurants."
Ling Ju gave Sun Jun a thumbs up. "It has to be Aunt. Now you know why I came here, it turns out that professional matters require professionals. I also made a non-spicy five-spice flavor, but there wasn't much, so I gave it all to the elderly at home. Next time I'll make it, I'll give it to Aunt to try."
"Okay, this is really good. I'll recommend it to the customers who come tonight. If they think it's good, I'll set up a stall in the store to help you sell the sauce!"
"Oh, that's wonderful! You really are my aunt!"
Sun Jun blushed, and Ling Ju caught her eye.
"Aunt, why don't you be my second aunt? I think you and my second uncle look like a perfect couple!"
Sun Jun laughed out loud, "This girl is a joker!"
"Aunt, I'm not kidding, don't you think? Look at my second uncle running here every day and never going home. Do you really think he treats you as his sister?"
Sun Jun was just making random guesses but didn't dare to think too deeply about it. But after hearing what Ling Ju said, she was indeed moved.
Ling Ju continued, "Aunt, everyone in our family can see how much Second Uncle loves you. Besides, he always mentions you at home."
"Really? Why did he mention me?"
"Then I have to think about it carefully. There are so many things. For example, you are independent and capable, beautiful and generous, and have a good personality. You often tell us at home how hard it is for you to raise your niece, how loving and kind you are, and so much more! I can't even finish mentioning it!"
Sure enough, Sun Jun's face turned red all of a sudden.
It seems she was right.
"He, really said that?"
"Really, Auntie, why would I lie to you! During the Mid-Autumn Festival, my eldest brother had someone make some mooncakes. One of them had chocolate and milk fillings. He loved it so much that he asked my eldest brother to have someone make more for you! Whenever I eat something delicious, I always think of you!"
Ling Ju was right. Sun Jun still remembered the day when Song Zhiqing came to Chuan Xiaoxiang with a big bag of mooncakes. The mooncakes with two fillings were indeed delicious.
