Chapter 21 The female beast inherits the family business
By the time Qiao Suluo and Bai Qianluo returned home, it was already evening.
But this time she returned home with a full load. Two backpacks could not hold so many things, so she put peach petals and walnuts in a sack and brought them back.
When Que Hongjin heard the sound, he knew they had returned and he breathed a sigh of relief.
Just now, Que Hongjin couldn't help but feel a little worried. After realizing that he had such emotions in his heart, he found it hard to believe.
After working for an entire afternoon, Que Hongjin had already made nine puppets, and another one would be ready soon.
You will be slow at first, but as you become more proficient, you will be able to do it faster and faster.
Que Hongjin put down his work and walked out of the house. Seeing Qiao Suluo and Bai Qianluo coming back, he stepped forward and said, "Wife, is there anything I can help you with?"
When Qiao Su Luo heard Que Hong Jin's voice, she remembered that he was at home. She had been concentrating on the ingredients and almost forgot about Que Hong Jin. She came to her senses and said calmly, "Oh, it's okay. You've worked hard making the puppets. I'll take care of these."
"I'm almost done. There's only one left, and I'll have it sewn in a moment."
Qiao Suluo was taking the konjac out of the basket when she heard this. She paused and looked up at him, "You made nine in the whole afternoon?"
It’s so fast, much faster than her speed.
"If you're worried, you can go check it out first. If there's anything wrong, I'll make changes."
Qiao Su Luo shook her head and said, "No need, there will be no problem with what you did."
At this moment, she looked at Que Hongjin with her eyes shining. He had a great skill, like a walking sewing machine.
So Qiao Su Luo gave Que Hong Jin a smile that she thought was gentle and kind, "Thank you for your hard work."
Que Hongjin looked at the changes in her expression and eyes, feeling somewhat helpless. He really didn't know what to say.
When she looked at him at this moment, she was not looking at him at all, but at his ability to do the work.
I smiled at him because he made puppets quickly.
“It’s not hard.”
"So I'll help my wife with some things that need to be done right now, and then I'll make that doll. It will be done soon."
Qiao Su Luo nodded, that's the truth.
Otherwise she would be too busy to handle so many things at once.
Qiao Su Luo went to the bucket of soaked soybeans nearby, scooped a handful and squeezed them. Finding they were softened, she said, "Could you please go to the mill and grind the soybeans?"
There was no stone mill at home, but there was a mill in the village, which only had a stone mill.
If you need to grind something, you can only go to the mill.
"Just grind it into soy milk and bring it back."
This way you can make tofu in the evening.
"good."
Although he didn't know what she was going to grind the soybeans for, Que Hongjin agreed without hesitation.
Then he took the things to the mill.
Next, Bai Qianluo helped to process the konjac, and Qiao Suluo prepared to make dumplings.
She went into the house and took a look. The noodles she had made at noon had already fully softened.
Then she began to prepare the stuffing, first cutting the pork belly she had bought into the filling. She had bought two pounds of pork belly and had eaten some at noon, so she used her points to redeem some more ground meat from the space mall and cut it into the filling...
After boiling water in the pot, add the washed acacia flowers, blanch them for one minute, then remove them and squeeze out the water...
Season the locust flowers, chopped green onions and meat filling and mix them evenly, then start wrapping.
She packed some extra food and prepared to send it to some families in the village. They sent her some food. Although it was not much, it was already quite good for the villagers, and it was all thoughtful of them.
She planned to give each of these families two meat-filled buns. Since a little kindness is enough to repay a great grudge, two meat-filled buns should be enough.
After it is done, two large pots are put into the steamer together, and each large pot has two large layers.
Bai Qianluo processed some konjac and came over to help with the fire.
While Bai Qianluo was making a fire, Qiao Suluo continued to process the konjac.
The konjac cakes sold very well today, so she made some more konjac cakes in an effort to make more money tomorrow.
I also need to buy some glutinous rice tomorrow so that I can make peach blossom wine with peach petals and glutinous rice.
When the pot in the kitchen was boiling, Qiao Suluo smelled the fresh fragrance of the locust flower buns, which made her appetite grow.
After being busy for half the afternoon, she really felt hungry.
At this moment, Que Hongjin also came back with the ground soybean juice.
"Wife, is it like this?"
Qiao Su Luo nodded and said, "Yes, that's it. Thank you for your hard work."
Que Hongjin shook his head. He didn't feel it was hard to do these things. Instead, the aroma of the soybean juice when grinding the soybeans was very tempting.
Fortunately, the mill was in the corner of the village, so no one noticed anything.
It turns out that the soy milk made from ordinary soybeans soaked in water is so fragrant.
"I'll make some soy milk for dinner later."
It's just right to eat buns and drink soy milk, which is also delicious.
After the pot boiled and simmered for a while, Qiao Su Luo went into the kitchen and was about to open the lid.
Que Hongjin just happened to enter the kitchen. Seeing her frantic movements, he quickly reached out and pulled her to his side, saying, "Be careful of getting burned by the heat."
As he spoke, Que Hongjin helped to open the lid of the pot little by little.
"If you want to pack the buns, let me do it."
The buns were a little hot when they came out of the pan. Knowing that Qiao Su Luo was anxious, Que Hong Jin thought of letting him pack them.
She had said before that she would send some buns to everyone after she made them.
But these buns just out of the pot smell very fragrant.
Qiao Su Luo said, "Eight families in the village sent us gifts before, so we'll give each family two buns."
Que Hongjin understood what Qiao Suluo meant and said, "Okay, I'll go see you off."
Qiao Su Luo said, "Well, by the way, tell them that acacia flowers can be eaten like wild vegetables."
After a pause, she added, "I'll pack twelve more buns and send them to my parents and brothers."
She had memories of her previous life and knew that this body had biological parents and three brothers, but her eldest brother was married, and her second and third brothers were still at home.
Her biological mother was the leader of the tribe, but the cat tribe was located in a remote area with poor conditions. Even though her mother was the leader of the tribe, life was very difficult.
But after her previous life came back, her family treated her with all their heart and soul, saving food for her to eat. Even the betrothal gift for her second brother's marriage was spent by her previous life. However, her previous life always despised and scolded them.
So even if they wanted to be nice to her, they didn't dare to get close to her.
Thinking of those memories, Qiao Suluo couldn't bear it and planned to give them some buns to eat.
In the Beast World, female beasts usually marry and inherit the family business, while male beasts usually have to get married.
After hearing what Qiao Su Luo said, Que Hongjin and Bai Qianluo froze for a moment.
Especially Que Hongjin's expression changed several times. There was a slight surprise in her elegant eyes, as if she didn't believe what she heard, but when I looked down at her expression, I found that she was serious and her expression was very serious.
She used to hate her parents and brothers the most, despising them for their humble origins and saying they only brought shame to her.
It's also quite unpleasant to scold her brothers.
Que Hongjin quickly put away his expression and said softly, "Okay."
Que Hongjin put the buns in a clean basket and handed it to her.
"Then I'll leave it to you to deliver to the other families."
"Don't worry."
Qiao Su Luo carried the basket and went to her parents' home.
She lives quite far away from her parents' home. She lives in the north of the village, while her parents' home lives at the front of the village, on the front street near the village entrance.
But when she walked over with the basket, she heard sharp curses.
"Don't you see what kind of family you are? What's the point of being the second son of a leader of a ruined tribe? You still want to cling to my Lu family. You are so shameless. I asked you to cancel the engagement in a nice way and hand over the betrothal money, but you still don't take it..."
"Let me tell you, Miss Lu married a learned but beastly husband. Even if your Qiao Er is willing to be a concubine, I still don't want to..."
