Chapter 54 Pride



Sui Yuzhu was preparing to go back after recording her statement at the police station.

Two policemen escorted her out the door.

"These gangs have committed a lot of crimes here, but I didn't expect that they would be caught by a little girl like you!"

The two policemen spoke to Sui Yuzhu with a smile and asked her to inform her unit so that they could commend her.

Sui Yuzhu quickly waved her hand to show that she didn't care.

Without waiting for the police to ask any more questions, he ran away.

I arrived at the bus stop and took the bus back home.

This time she didn't take a nap, nor did she meet any strange people.

Before going home, she went to the vegetable market and bought some vegetables.

When he returned home, he found that Qin Yue had already returned.

At this moment, he was wearing an apron and cooking dinner.

Hearing the noise at the door, he turned around and looked over.

"Why are you back so late?"

Qin Yue came forward with a light smile.

There was a nice smile on the corner of his lips, his eyes were deep and doting, and the soft questions he asked were as if he was talking to his wife who came home late.

Sui Yuzhu was shocked by her own thoughts and quickly shook off this inexplicable idea.

"I'm going to find my friend." Sui Yuzhu responded softly.

She didn't say that something happened to her on the bus today.

As he spoke, he raised the dishes in his hand and said with a smile: "I also bought some vegetables. If I had known you had already cooked, I would not have bought any more."

Qin Yue shook his head: "If you can't eat it today, you can eat it tomorrow."

Sui Yuzhu responded softly and followed him into the kitchen.

In the kitchen, bone soup is cooking and the aroma is overwhelming.

“It smells so good!”

Sui Yuzhu took a deep sniff, turned around and looked at Qin Yue with a smile, not hiding her praise.

Qin Yue also laughed happily.

"Then drink more later."

In the evening, Qin Zhenzhou had an engagement and did not come back, only Lin Qingshu came back.

After dinner, Lin Qingshu went to do her own thing, while Qin Yue and Sui Yuzhu went outside for a walk.

After thinking about it, Sui Yuzhu still did not tell Qin Yue that she was going to set up a stall.

It won’t be too late to tell him when the product really starts selling.

The two talked all the way and walked slowly in the community.

The weather has been getting cooler these days.

It's cold enough to wear short sleeves at night.

After they walked for a while, Qin Yue saw that she was a little cold, so he stopped walking forward and suggested going back.

Sui Yuzhu nodded slightly.

When the two turned around and went back, they saw Ding Wenyi walking home with a bag in her hand and wearing high heels.

She was accompanied by a young man in his early twenties, with a handsome appearance, wearing glasses, and looking gentle and refined.

He looked a little reserved and uneasy, and was obviously a little nervous.

In contrast, Ding Wenyi next to her had a proud look on her face, her chin slightly raised, like a proud white swan.

When she saw Qin Yue and Sui Yuzhu, she paused and her expression froze.

Then, she quickly took the arm of the man next to her and let out a soft hum from her nose.

Qin Yue didn't look at her, but was talking to Sui Yuzhu.

Qin Yue didn't care, so Sui Yuzhu naturally had nothing to care about.

So, the two of them acted as if they didn't see Ding Wenyi, ignored her showing-off behavior, and continued walking forward.

Ding Wenyi looked at the backs of the two men and stomped her feet in anger.

The man next to her saw her expression and asked quietly, "Wen Yi, what's wrong with you?"

Ding Wenyi rolled her eyes at him, pulled her hand back, ignored him, and walked straight ahead.

The man obviously didn't understand what was wrong with her. She was fine just now, so why did she suddenly get angry?

However, he could only coax her for now.

Sui Yuzhu and the others returned home, and Qin Yue asked her to take a shower and go to bed early.

Sui Yuzhu nodded slightly.

"By the way, do you have any plans for tomorrow?" Qin Yue asked again.

Sui Yuzhu did not respond immediately, but asked him if there was anything wrong.

Qin Yue turned his head and looked in the direction of the study, and said to her: "There are a lot of books in the study. If you feel bored, you can go to the study to read."

He paused slightly and continued, "If you really don't have anything to do, you can come to my workplace to find me."

Seeing that this was all he was saying, Sui Yuzhu nodded gently: "I understand."

After taking a shower and lying on the bed, Sui Yuzhu began to think about setting up a stall.

After buying groceries today, I had less than 20 yuan in my hand.

She wanted to sell some food that was not too expensive.

I originally wanted to sell egg pancakes, but making pancakes requires a stove, so I gave up because I couldn’t buy a stove.

After thinking about it, she remembered the rice balls that she loved to eat in her previous life.

Rice balls are a relatively traditional snack in Shanghai, made of glutinous rice wrapped in fried dough sticks.

The most traditional way is to spread the steamed glutinous rice flat, sprinkle it with fried black sesame seeds, or spread a layer of soybean powder inside and outside, and then place the fried dough sticks on the glutinous rice.

The hot and soft glutinous rice wrapped with fried dough sticks is crispy, soft, sticky and chewy, and is deeply loved by local people.

Later, it gradually evolved into stuffing various things into the rice balls. For salty tastes, people would stuff pickled mustard greens, ham, pork floss and the like.

If you want something sweet, add sugar, red beans, etc.

Her favorite food is salty food.

She had already inquired about the market conditions at the vegetable market today. The prices of grains were all similar, and the price of glutinous rice, black sesame seeds and soybeans was no more than 20 cents.

She planned to buy two kilograms of each to practice first.

Even if we can’t sell it, we can eat it ourselves and it won’t be wasted.

Thinking of this, she decided to buy a wooden barrel tomorrow.

When the time comes, you can put the glutinous rice in a wooden barrel and bring it over, which can also keep it warm.

If she could really sell it, she would find a way to rent a house nearby, which would be better than running back and forth like this.

Thinking about things, she slowly fell asleep.

The next morning, after Qin Yue and the others left, she started to get busy.

Qin Yue gave her a few food coupons and asked her to eat outside at noon.

It just so happens that she can use these tickets to buy glutinous rice.

She bought two kilograms each of glutinous rice, black sesame seeds and soybeans, and also bought some pickled mustard greens and pickled radishes.

After coming back, I washed the glutinous rice and soaked it.

The glutinous rice will taste better if it is soaked for a few hours.

Black sesame seeds are easy to fry. Just roast them slowly over low heat until fragrant.

It’s just that grinding soybeans into flour is a bit troublesome.

If you were in the countryside now, you could still find a stone mill, but in this city, no one has one.

There was no other way, she could only do it manually.

She first fried the soybeans until they were crispy, then crushed them one by one with a rolling pin, and then ground them slowly.

Fortunately, I didn’t buy much, so although it took a lot of effort, it’s still acceptable.
