Wang Guihua returned home, took red beans, peanuts, sesame seeds, and a basket of vegetables, and was about to go to the county town with Song Kexia.
Wan Ling saw them carrying their things and about to go out, and asked, "Mom, where are you going?"
"I have to go out for something. What's the matter?"
"Nothing, it's almost time to cook, you guys still want to go out?"
"You don't have to cook for my mother and me today, you can eat by yourselves.
Xia Xia and I are going into the city, so you don’t need to leave the door open for us at night.”
Wan Ling was very puzzled. Didn’t Old Lady Li already come back? Why did they still have to go to the county town?
"Mom, what are you doing in the county town?"
Wang Guihua glanced at her unhappily, "Why do we need to report to you about what we are going to do?"
Wan Ling was scolded by her and muttered softly, "I just asked, why are you so angry?"
It's really hard to please.
Wang Guihua snorted coldly and left with Song Kexia.
Wan Ling was very dissatisfied when she saw her carrying a large basket of vegetables and such a big bag.
The old woman put away the things in the house and didn't let them touch them.
She herself transported the goods out in bags, but no one knew what to do with them.
After Song Kexia and Wang Guihua arrived in the county town, they went to ask Mr. Ba to get flour and meat, and increased the amount of flour to 30 kilograms.
It just so happened that Mr. Ba still had some stock, so she took five more kilograms of flour and ten more kilograms of rice.
The two men carried a big bag of things, bought two chickens, and walked towards Sister Hu's house.
Sister Hu and her family were having dinner in the main room. When they saw them carrying things to the kitchen, Sister Hu stared at the piece of meat and couldn't get it off.
But after what happened yesterday, she didn't dare to touch the meat at all.
They put the things in the kitchen, took some meat and noodles, cooked some noodles, and moved everything into the room.
Although Song Kexia had warned Sister Hu, it is better to be safe than sorry.
When Sister Hu saw them bringing all the things into the room, she was very angry. Who were they guarding against?
However, the bags they brought seemed to contain a lot more things.
Sister Hu remembered that this morning, Li Fangliang kept delivering buns outside and their business seemed to be pretty good.
If she could learn their skills and make money selling buns, she would definitely earn much more than collecting rent.
She gradually became interested, as if she could see herself making money and living a good life.
Because of this idea, when Song Kexia went to braise the meat, she also went into the kitchen to take a look.
"What are you doing? Why does it smell so good?"
Wang Guixiang is frying peanuts in preparation for making peanut sesame buns.
Song Kexia was watching the fire by the stove. When she saw Sister Hu coming over, she didn't take it seriously and said casually, "I'm not doing anything, just cooking something."
"Your business is pretty good. You must have sold over 200 buns today, right?"
Song Kexia: "It's all because everyone gives us face and doesn't look down on our craftsmanship."
"You guys are making a lot of money selling buns, right?"
If it were in the past, Song Kexia didn't know Sister Hu's character and might have thought she was just asking casually.
Ever since she found out that she stole food and meat, she became more cautious towards Sister Hu and didn't think she was just asking casually.
"It's okay, just enough to make ends meet."
"You are really capable. It is not easy for outsiders to gain a foothold in the county.
It's amazing that you can do business in the city and do it so well.
Where are you setting up your stall? Is it really okay to set up a stall? Will the Commerce Bureau come and chase you away?"
"Sister Hu, are you planning to set up a stall to sell things? Why are you asking so many questions?"
Sister Hu seemed to have been exposed and smiled uncomfortably, "No, I was just asking casually."
"Since you just asked casually, I won't answer.
Sister Hu, the kitchen is very fumey. Why don't you go out first? It would be bad if your clothes get stained with the smell."
"It's okay, I'm here to chat with you."
Even if he tried to drive her away, she wouldn't leave. And considering the questions she asked, Song Kexia probably knew what she wanted to do.
It's not wrong to want to do business, but if you want to steal their skills and use them as a stepping stone, you are treating them as fools.
Seeing that the red beans were almost cooked, Song Kexia scooped them out.
The braised meat was almost done, so she lifted the pot.
Sister Hu watched intently, and then saw them carry all the things away.
From the pot to the seasoning, nothing was left behind.
Sister Hu: ...
Stealing skills only brings loneliness.
I wasted more than an hour just listening to her nonsense.
Wang Guihua returned to the room and asked Song Kexia, "Why does Xiao Hu always come to chat with you? Did he go to apologize to you?"
Song Kexia smiled and said, "How could that be? I think she wants to learn our craft."
Wang Guihua's eyes widened, having never expected that there would be such a shameless person.
"She wants to steal our skills?"
"I guess they saw how well our buns were selling, so they got jealous."
Wang Guihua was a little anxious, "What should we do? It's so inconvenient for us to live in her house.
If she sees our braised pork recipe, she might steal our business."
“Mom, you don’t have to worry so much. She can’t just look at the ingredients of the marinade whenever she wants.
Besides, there are many people selling buns in the market, so one more or one less of her won’t make much difference to us.”
