8. Chapter VIII

When the plum blossom cake was about to finish steaming, Ye Kai praised that it was so fragrant, Xie Ling immediately bent his eyes and smiled at him when he heard this, "Then Ye Gongzi will taste a piece later, right?" ”

"Okay, I believe in Miss Xie's craftsmanship." He nodded, and watched her lift the lid and brush a layer of oil on the top, the movements were skillful and meticulous, and at a glance he knew that she had done it with her heart.

The steamed plum blossom cake is soft and sweet, everything is good except for hot hands, Xie Ling took a small bite of it, confirmed that the taste was correct and could be rejoiced, and then began to put the rest into the food box, the food box is not big, only enough to hold half of it, and the rest can just be divided for the three little ghosts outside.

Ye Kai was full of praise after tasting it, praising her skills for surpassing those famous pastry shops in the city.

Whether this is a compliment or a sincere Xie Ling can hear it, after all, she knows better than anyone else what she is doing, but she has a craft, and she can't make money with this.

Before going to Dr. Sun's medical clinic, Xie Ling's wish has always been to be able to save enough money to open his own pastry shop and snatch the business circle of those expensive and unpalatable shops.

The reason why a wish is a wish is because there is almost no possibility of it being realized, and even raising her eldest brother needs to rely on her own frugality, Xie Ling feels that she will not be able to save enough money to open a shop in her life.

Ximen Fuxue's expression was much soothed after getting the plum blossom cake, and he thanked her.

Although the voice was very low, Xie Ling was also very comfortable listening to it, "It's okay, Xiaoqi likes to eat the pastries I made, and I'm also very happy." ”

Ximen Fuxue, who still maintained a cold face, heard this name, and his expression moved slightly, but he still said anything, nodded and said goodbye to her and left.

Xie Xing snorted at the back, "He's too much!" ”

"He didn't want to eat it himself, either." Xie Ling motioned for his younger brother to shut up, "And he has no shortcomings except for his cold temper." ”

Xie Xing rolled his eyes very skillfully, "Sister, you just said that because he was good-looking." ”

…… can't argue with that.

But in all fairness, Ximen Blowing Snow's face is really good-looking, one degree better than Lu Xiaofeng. Although most of the reason for this gap is that Lu Xiaofeng has maintained such a state of being a dirty roadside child all year round, on the other hand, Ximen Blowing Snow, who is only eight years old, has already begun to show his cleanliness habit, and after working for so long, Xie Ling has not seen him wear colors other than white.

So good-looking is good-looking, Xie Ling still doesn't dare to have too much contact with him, for fear that one of them will accidentally stain his white clothes.

In the next three months, Xie Ling went to the market every day off to sell all kinds of strange gadgets made by Zhu Zhu, and it turned out that children know best what children like, and everything Zhu Zhu made was quite popular with children of the same age.

Later, almost as soon as she appeared in the market, a crowd of people would flock to buy it.

With this income, she can not only cook a lot of delicious food for these three little ghosts, but also have the spare time to buy new cotton and quilts for the winter.

She also asked Lu Xiaofeng if she wanted to move from the broken temple to live here in winter, anyway, Xie Xing's bed was very big and could sleep with them completely.

Lu Xiaofeng squinted his eyes and shook his head, "It's okay with me, and my master is coming back when winter comes." ”

It wasn't the first time Xie Ling had heard him mention his master, and he didn't take it very seriously, so he casually asked, "Who is your master?" ”

"My master's surname is Jiang, but you don't know my sister either." He sat on the stool and flipped through the eight-strand text that Xie Xing had just copied, and laughed while reading it, "Why are you still learning this." ”

Xie Xing was also very irritable, "I also want to know, such a simple thing, most people can't memorize it!" ”

Watching the two of them arguing is actually a very comfortable thing, Xie Ling put his hands on his cheeks, and couldn't help but imagine the picture of Xie Xing's gold list title in the future.

She thinks it's not far off! After all, Xie Xing is so smart, although he only entered the private school at the age of eight, he has already learned better than most of the children in that private school, and even the old gentleman who treated rheumatism at Dr. Simon often praised Xie Xing with her, "My son said that he has never seen such a smart child, and your brother will have a great future in the future." ”

If you want to look back from many years later, this sentence is probably not wrong, after all, the old gentleman did not explain the direction of "promising".

Of course, Xie Ling at this moment didn't think much about it, he just felt that the money for sending Xie Xing to a private school was spent right!

The weather turned cold, and Xie Ling got up every day to become more tormented than before, so he was also looking forward to the rest day every ten days.

Dr. Simon liked her diligence very much, and took the initiative to mention to her: "Your family lives far away, so it doesn't hurt to come half an hour every night." ”

Xie Ling was grateful, and refused at all times.

Why, because the Ximen Medical Center counts her salary by the hour!

Fortunately, Dr. Simon has long been accustomed to her appearance of being a money obsesser, and he is not unhappy to hear her refusal, "Of course it is best if you can come as usual." ”

Tomorrow is a day off, but today Chongqi asked her to ask for chestnut cakes, and she agreed to relent, afraid that she would have to go home with Ximen Fuxue at night.

Since she knew that Chongqi was sent by a distant relative of the Ximen family to Dr. Ximen to recuperate, Xie Ling took extra care of her, and she took as much food as she could, and if she couldn't, she asked Ximen to go back with him to get it.

It's a pity that Ximen Fuxue has seen Lu Xiaofeng so many times, and there is still no spark of friendship between the two of them!

Xie Ling thinks that it must be the same OOC that I watched back then.

The most tedious thing to make chestnut cake is the beginning, to peel the raw chestnuts and steam them until they are ripe and then mashed into a puree, plus Xie Ling has always been a turtle hair to make things, so this step alone can take nearly an hour.

For a whole hour, she naturally couldn't stay in the kitchen all the time, so that Lu Xiaofeng and Xie Xing could sit there and talk, but she didn't blow the snow with Ximen.

Oh, by the way, the current Simon Blowing Snow, after several invitations from her, is already willing to sit down and eat with them.

Zhu stopped going to visit relatives in the past few days, but he didn't come, Xie Ling was worried that he couldn't solve it alone, but he didn't expect Ximen to like it.

"Childe eats more if he likes." She didn't have the courage to serve him food, so she could only repeat it a few more times.

Simon Fuxue nodded, "Thank you." ”

As soon as the words fell, Xie Ling heard her brother snort softly, she didn't bother to break the relationship between these children, so she simply didn't pay attention to it, and just entertained Ximen to blow snow and eat fish.

"By the way, Sister Ah Ling, my master came back yesterday, and he said that he was going to take me to see my uncle, and I will be gone for about a month!" Lu Xiaofeng said suddenly.

Xie Ling nodded, "Come to dinner at any time when you come back." ”

"Where are you going for a month like this?"

"I don't know, he's always elusive." Lu Xiaofeng frowned, "But it won't hurt me anyway." ”

Ye Kai mentioned to her three months ago that Lu Xiaofeng's kung fu was a little familiar, she didn't think much about it at the time, but now that she thinks about it, she should not be weak if she can be said to be familiar by Ye Kai.

But those heroes were still too far away from the life she wanted, so she didn't want to delve into it.

Xie Ling got up early the next morning, hurriedly ate two pieces of steamed chestnut cake and went out.

For such a big financier, Xie Ling naturally wanted to take it seriously, so this trip almost brought all the things that Zhu stayed here.

There were many fewer people visiting the market in the winter than in previous months, but Xie Ling didn't have this bother, and people surrounded her almost as soon as she arrived at the usual stall location.

"What did Miss Xie bring today?"

"Brought a lot, and some new gadgets, you guys take a look first." Anyway, the price is high.

The little servant of Wang Yuanwai's family also waited there early, and when he saw her set up a stall, he quickly glanced at it and bought nearly half of it.

Of course, there are some onlookers who are not convinced, but people are wealthy, and they are not forced to buy and sell, and they have to accept if they are not convinced.

"Do you still like those last time?" Xie Ling asked casually.

"Childe likes it very much." The little guy lowered his eyebrows and replied to her, "I'll come back next time Miss Xie comes." ”

Of course, Xie Ling would not refuse the business delivered to the door, so he hurriedly responded, "Okay, good." ”

Sent away the big money owner, and a bunch of small gold main to serve, Xie Ling received the money softly, thinking that he could bring a roast goose back to his younger brother tonight.

Just when she was about to close the stall, there was suddenly a pair of black boots in front of her, she thought she was here to buy something, and subconsciously replied: "The stall is closed today, let's hurry up in ten days." ”

The boots didn't move, and after a while, Xie Ling heard a voice above his head speak, "I don't buy anything, I just have a few words I want to ask the girl." ”

Xie Ling glanced up at him, thinking that he was going to ask for directions, but he didn't think much about it, "What does Childe want to ask?" ”

"Are all the toys sold by the girl made by the girl?"

This person's tone seemed to have a kind of joking when he spoke, Xie Ling was not very comfortable listening to it, but he didn't bother to talk to him, "I didn't do it, but if you want to buy it, you can only find me." ”

"I see." He abruptly said, "It seems that I haven't found the wrong person." ”

"I said it, if you want to buy it, let's hurry up in ten days." Xie Ling lifted the package on the ground, stood up, patted the dust on his dress, and smiled at him, "I hope I will have the opportunity to do my son's business in ten days." ”

"Girl, slow down!" The man stopped her again.

Xie Ling was puzzled, "Anything else?" ”

"Truth be told, I was commissioned by a friend to investigate a case, this case-" He paused, tugging at the corners of his mouth, and turned his gaze to her package, "It may have something to do with what the girl was selling." ”

"Huh?" Xie Ling didn't understand this trend very well, "...... What case? ”

"It's not good to scare the girl by saying it." He shook his head.

"Then why should I trust you?"

When the man heard this, the smile on his face was even worse, and his thin lips opened lightly, "My name is Chu Liuxiang." ”
