"That's right, my sister-in-law is just too kind-hearted. Now she just hopes that the stone is hardworking."
Xiuhua's sister-in-law also disagreed with buying the little boy.
What do you think?
Wei Yuyan looked at Wu Chen beside her.
“Stone is good. I’ve already planned to teach him how to drive the carriage. He can help us drive the carriage, feed the horses, and buy things often.”
Wu Chen's words undoubtedly supported Wei Yuyan's actions just now.
"Alright, you two are a perfect match, wife and husband."
"Hahahaha~".
The two women couldn't help but tease them.
If you look closely, you can see that Wei Yuyan's earlobes are slightly red, but she is just smiling.
"Madam, we're all ready."
Yu Niang led Shi Tou out, carrying only a small bundle, probably containing two changes of clothes.
"Get in the car~".
Wei Yuyan didn't want to say anything more here; she'd talk about it at the steamed bun shop.
When she arrived at the steamed bun shop, she noticed that it had been more than ten days since she last visited, and the shop was covered in dust. She picked up a broom and began to sweep.
Yu Niang quickly found a rag, fetched water, and wiped the tables, chairs, and benches. Shi Tou also helped out, so no one was idle.
Wu Chen and Wei Yuyan sat down and watched the group work, seemingly casual, but actually observing them closely.
The landlady was right; Yu Niang was very efficient at her work.
"Sister-in-law, this Jade Maiden is indeed excellent; we made the right choice."
Even Sister-in-law Xiuhua couldn't help but praise her.
And so, watching the three of them work for about 15 minutes, they managed to clean up the steamed bun shop.
"Yu Niang, Shi Tou, Zhang Da Sao, come and have a cup of tea."
In just a short while, Wu Chen had already brewed the tea.
"Please sit down, don't be shy."
Wei Yuyan noticed that the mother and son seemed somewhat reserved.
Yu Niang nodded, brushed the dust off herself and the stone, and then sat down.
"Yu Niang, let me introduce you. This is our steamed bun shop. This lady is younger than you, so you can call her 'sister.' This is Xiu Hua."
The two of them used to help out here, but then Xiuhua got pregnant, so we were short-handed.
This is Wu Chen, my husband. From now on, call him Boss Wu. My name is Wei Yuyan, and you can call me Boss's Wife.
Wei Yuyan's introduction was quite detailed.
"Yes, I understand."
Yu Niang nodded, indicating that she understood.
"As for the rest, Sister-in-law Zhang, you can go and introduce them to them. I'm going out for a stroll."
Wei Yuyan asked Zhang Dasao to arrange other food and lodging matters, and went out to buy some things.
“I’ll go with you. Sister Xiuhua, please rest here.”
Wu Chen immediately got up and followed. Since Sister Xiuhua was pregnant, she shouldn't be overworked, so he didn't ask her to go.
Guess what I'm going to buy?
Wei Yuyan kept it a secret.
"Is it for them, mother and child?"
Wu Chen couldn't help but smile. He had known for a long time that Wei Yuyan was kind-hearted.
"Okay, you guessed it."
Wei Yuyan pouted; this guy guessed it right away.
"No, I only guessed who you were buying it for, but I couldn't guess what you were going to buy."
Wu Chen quickly added.
"This is it."
Wei Yuyan stopped at the entrance of the cloth shop. The clothes worn by Yu Niang and her son were patched and patched, but fortunately they were still clean and tidy.
But now that I've bought it, it's one of us, so taking a little bit of fabric is no big deal.
"So that's how it is."
Wu Chen nodded and followed him inside.
"This pale purple fabric, and the green fabric, each need twelve feet; this gray and the muddy color, each need nine feet."
Wei Yuyan picked out several colors of fabric that were relatively dirt-resistant and bought two sets of fabric for each of them.
Spring has arrived, so let's just start making spring clothes.
Even the cheapest fabric cost three hundred coins.
"Do you like this?"
Wu Lei looked at the steamed rice cakes being sold next to him, and a sweet aroma filled the air.
"I've never tried it, so I don't know if it's good or not."
Wei Yuyan took a look. This one looks pretty good. It should be very sweet.
"One serving, please."
Wu Chen took out ten coins and handed them over. This steamed rice cake wasn't cheap; it was sold by the portion.
"Try it."
Wu Chen scooped some out with a spoon and held it to Wei Yuyan's lips so she could taste it.
"Mmm, so sweet! Not bad. Should we take a few more back for them to try?"
Wei Yuyan was still thinking about Xiao Lei, Qianqian, and her older sister at home.
This glutinous rice cake is actually made of glutinous rice and red date paste, and I think there's some kind of bean in it too, but Wei Yuyan couldn't tell what kind of bean it was.
"They'll buy it when they get home."
Wu Chen placed the steamed cake in Wei Yuyan's hand; he had a piece of cloth in his hand, so it was inconvenient for him to feed her.
"This is alright, not too greasy. Aren't you going to eat it?"
Wei Yuyan took two more bites.
"I don't like sweets~".
Wu Chen shook his head, not particularly interested in this unless it was made by Wei Yuyan herself.
"We're back~".
Wei Yuyan handed the remaining half of the steamed rice cake to Sister-in-law Xiuhua so that she could try it.
"They seem to be cooking in the kitchen. It's almost noon, I wonder if they're going to eat here."
Xiuhua's sister-in-law responded.
"I'll go take a look."
Wei Yuyan put the fabric on the table and walked to the front of the road. She saw Yu Niang kneading dough and Shi Tou washing scallions.
"You're back? Yu Niang said she's quite good at making pancakes, make some for us to try."
Sister-in-law Zhang suddenly appeared from behind.
"Okay, let's eat here then."
Seeing that Yu Niang's hands were covered in flour, Wei Yuyan decided to tell her about the fabric later.
"The scallion pancakes are here, made by Yu Niang. They must be eaten while they're hot."
Aunt Zhang arrived carrying a plate of pancakes.
"It's a pity there aren't many vegetables. When you come tomorrow, bring more vegetables. They need to eat vegetables every day from now on."
Wu Chen then remembered that the steamed bun shop didn't have any vegetables. He should have gone to the market to buy some.
"Hmm~, this scallion pancake is really good, it's even a little crispy."
Wei Yuyan took a bite of the scallion pancake and thought that Yu Niang's skills were amazing. The scallion pancake was made just like a sesame seed cake, and it was a little flaky.
"Yes, this is the first time I've ever had a scallion pancake like this."
Sister-in-law Xiuhua also loves to eat it.
"Hey, where are they, mother and child?"
Wei Yuyan noticed that they hadn't come out yet.
"They said they wanted to eat in the kitchen."
Sister-in-law Zhang came out again with a plate of pancakes.
"That won't do."
Wei Yuyan got up and went to the kitchen. Sure enough, Shi Tou was sitting on a stool eating scallion pancakes, while Yu Niang was cleaning the stove.
"Stone, Jade Girl, stop cleaning up, it's time to eat."
Wei Yuyan directly pulled up the stone.
"Madam, we'll just eat here. We country folk don't have any manners, and our table manners aren't very good."
Yu Niang felt embarrassed to eat at the table with her host family.
"I'm from the countryside too. Here, there aren't so many rules. Everyone is equal. Come on."
Wei Yuyan pulled the mother and son to the table to eat together.
