With the help of Zhao's father and son, the basket was filled with sweet potatoes in a short while.
Before leaving, Li Yan handed her cousin the cotton shoes that Wu had made for him and said, "Brother, I'm going back first. These are the new cotton shoes that grandma made for you. It's getting cold now, don't forget to wear them!"
Li Jianmin took the cotton shoes from his cousin and said, "Thank grandma for me. I'll go back to see her after I have some rest. Be careful on the way back!"
Li Yan waved her hand, and rushed to Lijia Village with the Zhao father and son and Chen Da, pulling the goods.
What Li Yan didn't know was that when she entered Piaoxiang Tower, a pair of eyes had been silently watching her.
Qin Yue stood in front of the window, watching Li Yan and her group go away until they disappeared from his sight. Then he sat back at the table and picked up the peppercorns he had seen in front of the camp gate this morning with his chopsticks.
Qin Yue put the peppercorns in his mouth, and a spicy and numbing taste spread from the tip of his tongue. He couldn't help but pick up another piece of fish fillet. It was smooth and refreshing, and it really whetted his appetite.
At this time, a figure in black floated in from the window and knelt at Qin Yue's feet. The person who came was the shadow one who appeared in the woods that day: "Master, I have asked around. This pepper fish was sold to Piaoxianglou by the girl surnamed Li!"
Qin Yue looked up and motioned Ying Yi to continue.
"Not only this pepper fish, but also this restaurant's signature braised pork is made by this girl. I heard that this restaurant was almost on the verge of collapse, and it was because of these recipes that Piaoxianglou became prosperous again!"
"How could a little peasant girl have such great abilities?" Qin Yue was suspicious and said to the shadow beside him, "Go check this person's background!"
Qin Yue couldn't believe that a little peasant girl could have such great abilities. Not only did she have a friendship with the young master of the Qian family, but it seemed that she had hooked up with her cheap cousin!
Qin Yue was suspicious and wanted to find out if there was any power behind this person!
Li Yan was completely unaware that she was being suspected, and she led the three of them back home.
Lin looked at the people who had returned exhausted and asked hurriedly, "Have you eaten yet?"
After being busy for most of the day, they had no time to eat. Only then did Li Yan feel her stomach was empty and asked, "Mom, is there anything left to eat?"
Lin: "The food is ready. Your aunt and I will go and roll noodles for you! It will be ready in a moment!" After saying that, she hurried away.
Li Yan said to the three people, "You've worked hard today. Rest for a while and then unload the cargo after you've had dinner."
In just a cup of tea, Li Xiaomei came to the main room with the prepared rolled noodles. There was a large bowl full of rolled noodles with an egg inside. Li Xiaomei put the noodles on the table and asked everyone to eat.
Seeing the large bowl of noodles, the Zhao family father and son's eyes lit up. After being busy for most of the day, they were already starving!
Several people gathered around the table and began to devour the food. The noodles were chewy and smooth, and the aroma of the eggs whetted their appetites.
There was a sound of slurping noodles, and in a moment, several people finished a large bowl of noodles. The satisfied feeling of fullness greatly reduced everyone's fatigue.
After the meal, the Zhao family father and son asked, "Miss, where should we put this stuff?" Then they got up to unload the stuff.
Li Yan: "There are quite a few bruised sweet potatoes among these. Those that can't stay put need to be picked out first!"
Upon hearing this, the Zhao father and son immediately took action. Several of them first moved the sweet potatoes off Chen's cart so that the other party could leave first.
They will first pick out the sweet potatoes that are scarred or cannot be kept, and then put the intact sweet potatoes in the cellar.
The noise here alarmed Mrs. Wu next door. She saw Li Yan and others picking sweet potatoes on the ground, so she went back home and called her son and daughter-in-law to help.
Everyone was busy picking out the sweet potatoes one by one, putting the damaged or unmovable ones aside.
Everyone moved the potatoes carefully to prevent further damage. The Zhaos, father and son, were skilled and coordinated, quickly identifying the problematic sweet potatoes.
Li Yan placed the intact sweet potatoes in the cellar, carefully stacking them neatly to ensure they had enough space and were not squeezed together. The temperature in the cellar was just right, which could maintain the freshness and shelf life of the sweet potatoes.
After working for several hours, I finally stored the sweet potatoes.
