Chapter 31: Preparation

Qiao Ruyi was busy in his hands, and heard Qiao Ruxin's voice ringing outside:

Aunt Xue, you're here-

yes, is your sister here?

Yes, I'll take you in.

Qiao Ruyi heard that it was Xue Shi who came, so he hurriedly washed and dried his hands and went out.

Sister, Aunt Xue is here-

Qiao Ruxin took Xue's hand and walked in, and said with a smile.

Aunt Xue, you're here, come in and sit-

Qiao Ruyi saw it, and also beckoned, and asked Xue to go to the back room.

Xue Shi saw Qiao Ruyi and said with a smile:

Oh, Ruyi girl didn't expect you to be a skillful person, I tasted the two steamed buns you sent before, they taste really good, and your Uncle Xue also said that they are delicious.

Aunt Xue, you like to eat, when we are ready, take a few more.

Qiao Ru said that some people like the pasta they make by themselves, and she was also happy in her heart, so she said hurriedly.

Aunt Xue laughed when she heard this, and said:

Ruyi girl, you see that you are generous, don't you know your own situation, take care of yourself first, I will taste it there.

Xue Shi said, and when he got to the kitchen, he saw Qiao Ruyihe's face, and asked:

Ruyi girl, why don't you put this noodle away, hurry up and do it.

Qiao Ruyi looked at the noodles in the basin, which she had just put down just now, and it hadn't started yet, so she said:

Aunt Xue, this noodle has just been reconciled, and it hasn't been sent yet.

How can this side still be posted? Xue asked with some surprise, wouldn't you just do it directly after you reconciled?

That's dead noodles, Qiao Ruyi thought to herself, dead noodles taste hard and hard, take a bite of wet and sticky, how can the noodles made like that be delicious.

Wouldn't that be sticky and hard?

Qiao Ruyi thought about this, and couldn't help but ask.

This steamed bun is made to taste a little hard, and the taste of wowotou is rougher, compared with the two, wowotou is better than the steamed bun made, so we often make wowotou.

Xue said slowly, with a hint of inadequacy in his words.

I see, no wonder she ate Wowotou in the days when she lived with Mrs. Qiao, I thought it was Zheng's laziness and didn't want to make steamed buns, but I didn't expect that it was because she didn't know how to make noodles, and the dead noodles were not delicious.

Qiao Ruyi thought of this, so he asked:

Aunt Xue, you just said that the steamed buns we sent are delicious, and I want to make some and sell them in the town, do you think this will work?

Okay, why not?

Xue replied: I have never eaten such a sweet steamed bun, if you make it, there must be many people who buy it to eat, I see it.

Qiao Ruyi listened to Xue's words, so he put his mind at ease, Xue's said okay, then it must be okay.

Qiao Ruyi said:

Since Aunt Xue said this, then I am relieved, I don't think about this food, I said that it is good to eat, I gave birth to such an idea, now Aunt Xue, you say yes, it must be good, I am more relieved, I can do it with peace of mind.

Ruyi girl, your idea is good, I think it's okay.

Xue repeated.

Originally, the Xue family thought that the steamed buns were delicious and wanted to ask about the method, but when he heard that Qiao Ruyi wanted to do the business of this steamed buns, it was not easy to ask, so after a pause, he asked:

Ruyi girl, how do you get to the town after you make it?

Qiao Ruyi was stunned when she heard this. She was so bent on buying ingredients to make pasta that she forgot how to carry it, and if she put it in a basket, she could carry it, but she always looked a little inauthentic, and remembered the people in the town who carried the burden to do business, so she said:

I saw in the town today that there were people who carried burdens to do business, and I did the same, but I forgot that I didn't have a burden, and I would go to ask the master later to see if he had a burden.

Aunt Xue heard Qiao Ruyi say this, shook her head and said:

It's useless to go to your father, your father has never done business in his life, where to use this kind of thing, you come with me, my family has a burden, you can use it.

Aunt Xue, how can your family have a burden?

Qiao Ruyi asked.

I was not in charge of the house, he put this burden on his head and wanted to do some business, but he was not the material, so he stopped doing it for two days, and then went to build houses for other people and mud. Now this burden is still ninety percent new, and it will fall into the dust there, so you can use it if you want it.

This is cheaper for me, Qiao Ruyi said, this way, I will give you some money every day, and I will rent Aunt Xue yours.

Ruyi girl, if you say this, you will see the outside, you have just started doing it and haven't made any money, so why do you want your money.

Xue Shi listened and hurriedly excused himself.

Then I'll give it to Aunt Xue after I earn the money, Aunt Xue, let's talk about how much it is a day, and when I'm ready, I'll send it to Aunt Xue.

Qiao Ruyi didn't want to take advantage of others in his heart, although their lives were not good now, and the Xue family was better off than themselves, but everyone's life was earned by themselves, and they couldn't take advantage of others because their own days were not good.

The wishful girl is ambitious.

Xue couldn't help but admire, but Ruyi girl, let's wait until later, this money is a trivial matter, the most important thing is that you have to do it first, don't you say?

Qiao Ruyi listened to Xue's repeated excuses, so he also agreed, and said:

That's okay, just borrow your auspicious words Aunt Xue, and wait for me to earn the silver, and then talk about this.

Through getting along these days, Qiao Ruyi knew that Aunt Xue was a generous person, and she took care of the three of them everywhere, these were not done on the surface, but really for their sake, Qiao Ruyi heard that Xue was not polite, so she agreed.

Then Qiao Laixing and Xue went home to carry the burden.

After a while, Qiao Laixing came back with a burden on his shoulders, although Qiao Laixing was not very tall, but it was just right for him to carry this burden.

Qiao Laixing took the burden into the house and said:

Sister, this burden looks quite new, let's use it carefully, don't put it in the yard, just put it in the house.

Qiao Ruyi watched Qiao Laixing carry the burden into the room, and said with a smile:

That's good, it's really thoughtful to think about it.

Qiao Ruyi said that Qiao Laixing didn't like to talk much on weekdays, so he often praised him, so that he slowly dared to speak, in Qiao Ruyi's heart, Qiao Laixing is an excellent child, let him learn to express himself, let others see his advantages, so as to get more people's attention and appreciation, which will help him in the future, if Qiao Laixing only knows how to sell coolies, and has no idea in his heart, it is a pity that he may become another Qiao Dadong.

Qiao Laixing put the burden away, saw the noodles in the basin, and said:

Sister, the face is hairy, let's make steamed buns

Hey, let's start making steamed buns.

Qiao Ruyi said.

Qiao Laixing and Qiao Nina also came to help. The two of them first boiled and mashed the red dates, and Qiao Ruyi put the processed red dates in the basin and into the noodles, Qiao Laixing, Qiao Ruxin then processed the purple potatoes and pumpkins. The three of them had already done it once, and this time they were much more proficient. It's just that if you do more, it will take more time, and the three of you will be busy. Finally the steamed buns came out, Qiao Ruyi put them on the cover mat and woke up for a while, and then steamed the steamed buns into the pot, Qiao Laixing burned the fire under the stove, and the heat gradually came out of the lid of the pot.

Qiao Ruyi breathed a sigh of relief, and the steamed buns were waiting to be cooked.
