Seeing how anxious and irritated she was, Mrs. Wu didn't say much. She just lowered her head and ate the buns in her hand. This matter must make her face the reality. Did she think that this was a simple matter and that the job was easy?
Others are making money, but there are many tricks involved that a country peasant like you cannot possibly know.
Even the second girl's abilities are due to her own cleverness, coupled with the knowledge she gained from studying with her father for many years, which is why she has achieved what she has today!
Mrs. Wu probably forgot that her granddaughter's temperament was different before she fell ill. She just followed her own thoughts. Now the girl has come to her senses!
If Li Yan knew her grandmother thought of her this way, she'd probably be in tears. She didn't expect her grandmother to label her changes as slow awakening! Well, as long as she wasn't considered possessed by a demon, it didn't matter what her grandmother thought of her!
On this side, Liu thought that making money from selling buns was the most important thing, and she didn't care about face or money. She took a few buns from the steamer and went to the next room.
Liu walked into the courtyard and saw the two of them. She walked up to them enthusiastically and said, "You two are here. Come and try the buns I just made. Why don't mine taste as good as the ones you made yesterday?"
Liu looked at the two of them expectantly: "How is it? What went wrong?"
Li Xiaomei took a bite of the bun and found it tasted just average, just tofu wrapped in dough with a hint of saltiness.
"Since sister-in-law asked me, I will tell you directly!" Lin said to Liu.
Mrs. Liu nodded vigorously, "Just tell me, sister-in-law. I'm planning to take this to the city to do business. If it doesn't taste good, how can I make any money?"
Seeing that she was speaking frankly and didn't look annoyed, Lin said, "I don't know if it's because I have a poor appetite, but the filling of this bun smells like beans!"
"Is that so? Let me try it again!" After saying that, he picked up a tofu bun and chewed it carefully. After tasting it carefully, it really was quite tasty!
So he looked at Li Xiaomei expectantly, hoping to learn some tips on how to make the filling from her.
Li Xiaomei, who felt a little embarrassed by her sister-in-law's fiery gaze, said uncomfortably: "Sister-in-law, the filling of the buns was prepared by the second girl. You might as well ask her!"
Liu looked around and asked anxiously, "Second girl, where is she?"
Lin: "Don't worry, sister-in-law. This girl went down the mountain to watch her grandfather digging a pond early this morning. When she comes back, I'll let her go look for you!"
Upon hearing this, Liu had no choice but to take the remaining buns and returned home listlessly.
Seeing her eldest daughter-in-law looking like an eggplant hit by frost, Mrs. Wu couldn't help but shook her head. She had just finished speaking, and why was she so discouraged?
It was rare for the eldest daughter-in-law to be active in the family's livelihood, so Mrs. Wu comforted her with a few words.
After about a cup of tea, Liu still hadn't waited for Li Yan.
Waiting like this was unbearable, so Liu called her daughter and said, "Go down the mountain and call your sister. Mother has something to ask her!"
Li Yan was at the foot of the mountain, checking the progress of the pond digging. It's true that when there are more people, things go faster! Now the four corners of the pond have been dug out, and everyone is working in perfect harmony, some digging, some carrying.
Li Yan also saw the Zhou brothers in the crowd. These two, especially Zhou Dalang, worked very hard and their progress was far behind his team.
Daya saw Li Yan standing at the edge of the pond from a distance, called out to her and waved for her to come over!
When Li Yan came closer, Daya said, "Second sister, come with me home quickly. My mother said she wants to ask you for advice!"
Looking at her puzzled sister, Daya came closer and explained with a smile, "My mother wants to sell tofu buns, but the ones she makes aren't as delicious as the ones you made yesterday, and she's worried and angry at home right now!"
Li Yan thought it was a serious matter, so she followed Daya home slowly!
