It's not to say that the Ye family's daughters-in-law are the best.
There were also other people's families, such as Aunt Guihua who sold tofu, Xiaohu's mother... They were also very good, in their dealings with others, their manners, and so on.

The next day, after waking up and washing up, Wang Yitong and Yingbao went to the kitchen. They first boiled a large pot of water, preparing to make the new items they had discussed the day before: "Fish balls, shrimp balls..."
Then, while only she and her mother Wang Yitong were in the kitchen, Yingbao took out five or six live basa fish from her spatial storage.
Because basa fish has very few bones and relatively thick flesh, it is the first choice for every head chef when making fish balls.
And most importantly, fish balls are all about freshness, so it's best to use live, fresh basa fish as the ingredient.
Wang Yitong was responsible for killing the basa fish and dismembering it into small pieces, while Yingbao was responsible for chopping the small pieces of basa fish into tiny pieces, leaving no trace, until it was all minced.
What's wrong? I have a bad feeling.
It looked like a crime scene.
"Ta-da..."
Then, Yingbao poured the minced meat into a stainless steel bowl, added chopped ginger, tapioca starch, cornstarch, pepper, cooking wine, and a suitable amount of salt, mixed them together, and then picked up a pair of chopsticks and stirred in one direction.
After mixing it well, Yingbao and her mother Wang Yitong put on disposable gloves that they had taken out of their space. They grabbed a handful of meat paste and squeezed it out from between their thumbs and forefingers to form a round shape like an open mouth forming an "o".
Next, use a spoon to remove the meat and quickly put it into the freshly boiled water to cook slowly. Repeat the same process for the remaining meat until all the minced meat on the cutting board has been squeezed out. After cooking, take it out and set it aside to cool down before skewering it.
Of course, they couldn't sell them all. After all, five basa fish were a lot of food. It was also thanks to Yingbao's mastery of the Absolute Compassion Sutra that she was able to make a living. Otherwise, with her mediocre physical abilities in the modern world, she would have been exhausted to the point of paralysis long ago.
Wang Yitong, the mother, was used to working in the fields year-round, so doing this was definitely tiring for her, but knowing that she could earn more money than she would in a year of working in the fields, she felt that no matter how tired she was, it was worth it.
After Yingbao and Wang Yitong finished preparing, they made a simple fish ball and seaweed soup and put all the remaining fish balls, except for those to be sold today, into the solar-powered refrigerator in their space to freeze.
After the two finished eating, there was still a lot left in the pot, which was reserved for the other members of the Ye family.
"Mom, I won't teach you how to make shrimp balls today. We don't have enough time, we have to go quickly. We made a promise to those uncles and aunts yesterday, we can't break our promise."
After saying that, Yingbao glanced at her mother, Wang Yitong, who was still cleaning up the kitchen scraps. Without waiting for a reply, she grabbed the pot and the braised skewers inside and carried them to the yard, where she put them on the cart.
Wang Yitong quickly sped up her work, tidying up the last corner of the kitchen, then picked up a spoon, packaged the skewers... and followed.
And so, pushing their carts, they arrived at their usual stall location just a second before yesterday.
As soon as I arrived, I heard the aunt who had left yesterday say with a smile, "Oh!"
"Sister, little girl, you've finally arrived! I've been waiting for so long, I thought you weren't coming today!"
