Chapter 48 Tickets



Yao Qiyue was planning to make some wontons in broth in the evening, and the two large bones were just right for making the soup.

The minced meat brought back from the butcher stall is minced into minced meat.

It was difficult to make wontons with pure meat, so Yao Qiyue specially cut some carrots and added them in.

Jiang Mei spent a day learning how to chop meat, and now her hands are shaking when she holds the kitchen knife.

She didn't complain at all and helped Yao Qiyue cut green onions in the Yao family's kitchen.

Yao Qiuyue is generous with the oil and seasonings when mixing the wonton filling, and the meat filling is greasy and very appetizing.

Jiang Mei had eaten Yao Qiyue's cooking several times, and she couldn't help swallowing when she saw Yao Qiyue mixing the wonton filling.

The newly bought flour was not as white as the modern flour, it was slightly yellowish, and the dough kneaded into it looked a little dirty.

Yao Qiuyue skillfully cut the dough into even-sized pieces, rolled it into a circle, cut it in the middle, and a wonton wrapper was ready.

Jiang Mei followed Yao Qiyue's example and made wontons clumsily.

Wu Meiyue has focused all her energy on Jiang Jie for so many years. Jiang Mei grew up following Jiang Ye.

Wu Meiyue treats Jiang Mei much better than Jiang Ye, which can be seen from the residence allocated by the Jiang family.

Jiang Mei is caught in the middle and sometimes can only pretend to be confused.

She didn't want to accuse her mother of being mean to her brother and sister-in-law, nor did she want to stand beside her sister-in-law and say that her mother was like a tigress.

Jiang Mei looked at Yao Qiyue who was busy in front of her and felt a little guilty.

Yao Qiyue was still thinking about making wontons and then going to the market to sell some cakes.

The cakes in the cake shop are getting less and less, but Jin Shu said the supplies inside will not increase suddenly.

Fortunately, her store is big enough and she has enough materials in stock, and as long as she saves enough money, she can buy many things.

"Sister-in-law, I'll go to the pork stall to help you during my next holiday. Can you please stop being angry with my parents?"

"They just feel more sorry for Xiaojie. My mom used to think Xiaojie was stupid and needed someone to take care of him all his life, but she was going to die sooner or later."

"She also wanted to give Xiaojie to me and my brother, but she also felt that if my brother had graduated from college and was capable, he wouldn't want Xiaojie. And since I'm a girl, I'll have to marry into another family in the future."

Jiang Mei looked at the panel in front of her and her voice gradually became lower.

"I'm not trying to excuse my mother. It was wrong for her to take your money. She just wanted to save some money for Xiaojie so that he would have security in his old age."

Yao Qiuyue put the wrapped wontons into the pot one by one.

"so what?"

"What does her and Jiang Jie's affairs have to do with me?"

"They are just two selfish people who want to use illness to morally blackmail others."

Yao Qiyue wondered if she looked easy to talk to.

But it’s true, the original owner looked very rich.

When Yao's father and mother were alive, they were very capable and accumulated a lot of family property.

Yao's mother can make clothes and shoes. She set up a stall in front of the door and made money by making clothes and shoes for others when she had nothing to do.

She has good craftsmanship and can embroider, so many women who love beauty are willing to ask her to make clothes.

Two capable parents have saved up the capital for their children to make a living, which cannot be a reason for others to covet.

Yao Qiyue felt from the bottom of her heart that Jiang's mother was annoying.

"If your mom and dad work harder and save more money every day, it will be enough for Jiang Jie to spend the rest of his life."

"It's just greed. It's easier to get money without working for it than to earn it through hard work. That's why they keep pestering me."

Jiang Mei was somewhat dissatisfied with what Yao Qiyue said. It seemed that Jiang's father and mother had many problems. She was also a little angry that Jiang's father and mother had done something wrong.

Jiang Mei followed what Yao Qiyue said and thought that her father was away from home for work all year round, and when he came home he was indifferent to her, mostly asking her to be nice to Jiang Jie.

Not to mention Jiang's mother. Although she was at home every day, she was ordered to deliver clothes to Jiang Jie or coax Jiang Jie to eat.

Her life became better only after Jiang Ye and Yao Qiyue returned to the Jiang family.

Jiang Mei remained silent. She felt very upset. Everyone hopes that their parents are heroes, brave and kind.

But the reality is often not satisfactory. Her parents are even more despicable than ordinary people, and all this is because of money.

Yao Qiyue was a little soft-hearted after all. Jiang Mei was only fourteen years old, and if she were alive today, she would be a precious child held in the palm of someone else's hand.

"Don't think too much. Everyone has their own path to take. You can't stop your parents from taking that path."

"But you can decide what path you want to take and what kind of person you want to become in the future."

Yao Qiyue put the cooked wontons into a large bowl and said, "Would you like some shrimp?"

"eat!"

"Do you want to eat chopped green onions and cilantro?"

"eat!"

"Do you want chili oil?"

"add!"

Jiang Mei's emotions come and go quickly.

She held the big hot bowl and brought it to Jiang Ye and Teacher Lu.

Lu Zhian took some time out today to go to the supply and marketing cooperative to buy a few cans of food and some peach cakes for Xiaobao. The supply and marketing cooperative had milk powder today, so he was willing to spend money to buy two bags and bring them back.

The table was so full that Jiang Mei had no place to put her bowl.

When Yao Qiuyue entered the room, she saw several people sitting on stools holding their bowls, but no one was eating.

"Qiyue, come quickly. I bought these for Xiaobao. Please put them away for the child."

Yao Qiyue looked at the things on the table. The tickets needed for the milk powder were so expensive. Lu Zhian was really willing to spend so much.

She did not refuse these things. The food she had seen in modern times was much more abundant, so she did not find them strange.

She quickly put her things in the cabinet and cleared space on the table.

Jiang Mei looked at Xiaobao enviously. It’s better to be a child. You can eat anything.

At the dinner table, Lu Zhian changed his usual quiet demeanor and spoke seriously.

"I'm going back to Jing City tomorrow, so you should go back as soon as possible!"

"This is the ticket I bought for you. I heard you were going back at the end of the month, so I didn't buy it too late."

Lu Zhian took out two train tickets from his pocket and handed them to Jiang Ye.

"I was afraid you wouldn't want to spend the money, so I bought a sleeper ticket. It will be more comfortable for you and Xiaobao to take the sleeper."

Jiang Mei opened her mouth, looked up and looked at Yao Qiyue carefully. She didn't know that Yao Qiyue was leaving.

She went to the meat stall to help out today, so why is she leaving South City out of the blue?

She felt that the wontons in her bowl were no longer fragrant.

"Teacher, how can I let you spend so much money? I have saved a lot of money recently."

Jiang Ye returned the train ticket. He translated books very quickly and could finish half a book in three days.

Lu Zhian interrupted Jiang Ye's chatter: "A gift from an elder cannot be declined. This is a small token of my appreciation."

"Besides, I've been eating and drinking for free at your house for so long. If you don't accept it, don't go back."

Jiang Ye wanted to refuse, but Lu Zhian angrily slammed the ticket on the table.

"How could I have such an indecisive disciple like you? Just take it when I tell you to."
