Chapter 136 - 136 Best Friend

136 Best Friend
“Tomorrow morning,” Su Xiaoxiao said.
“So soon.” Father Su couldn’t bear for her to leave.
Su Xiaoxiao said, “I’ll leave early and return as soon as I can. Oh, right, I left Liu Ping at home because business in town can’t stop forever.”
She was not feeling well and had already rested for two days. As for her and Su Ergou going to the city, it would take at least three days.
If they did not set up their stall for five days, it could result in dissatisfaction and loss of customers.
“Sure, let’s do it!” Father Su did not think that this had anything to do with him for the time being.
“Liu Ping is in charge of running errands. Sister Wu makes pancakes.”
Su Xiaoxiao hadn’t been idle for the past two days. Although she didn’t go to town to do business, she taught Little Wu how to make pancakes. Little Wu was already very capable. In addition, she had been following her for a period of time and was very familiar with the process of making pancakes. Other than failing at the egg yolk pastry, she basically knew how to make wife cakes and chestnut cakes.
In any case, her pastry was better than Jin Ji’s.
Su Xiaoxiao had given Jin Ji a recipe, but there was actually a lot to learn about making pancakes delicious. Not to mention the heat at each stage, even the water quality needed for each snack was different.
A slight change could result in a thousand miles of difference.
Of course, the master of Jin Ji could study it, but didn’t it take time? How could it be faster than her teaching it step by step?
Little Wu made another pot of wife cakes and brought it over for the family to taste.
After Su Xiaoxiao tasted it carefully, she approved the ones with green bean filling, red bean filling, and chestnut filling. The dried plum vegetables were slightly inferior and did not meet her standards.
However, it was actually not bad. Su Xiaoxiao’s requirements were too high.
But on second thought, if not for her high standards and requirements at all times, how could she reach the peak of her business?
Excellent was a habit.
Liu Ping also came to try, but his culinary skills… were really inferior to Little Wu’s.
Little Wu had been the daughter-in-law of the Liu family for so many years. She had cooked every meal. She had finally mastered it.
Su Xiaoxiao continued, “These few pancakes will be sold for the next few days. Dad, you and Wei Ting have to help Sister Wu or take care of her children.”
Little Wu would definitely not be able to handle it alone.
In addition, she had also instructed Liu Ping to take as few orders as possible.
“Got it,” Father Su agreed.
“There’s more.” What followed was the main point. Su Xiaoxiao looked at her father solemnly. “Dad, you have to sell the pancakes!”
Father Su was speechless.
… .
“Su Ji’s stall, banner sign, tray, snack box, bamboo leaf, paper bag…”
In the central room, Su Xiaoxiao counted the items needed to set up the stall one by one.
“Have you remembered everything I said? If you really can’t remember, ask Liu Ping. He’s familiar with it.”
She could only pause the braised meat business for a few days. Otherwise, Little Wu would definitely be exhausted.
Fortunately, there were no competitors when it came to braised meat. It was sold at Luo Dazhuang’s pork stall, so business would not be affected.
“Daya, I can do the braised meat.”
Little Wu came over from the kitchen.
Making braised meat was easier than making snacks because Su Xiaoxiao had made the sauce. She only needed to put the meat in and cook it with some salt.
Su Xiaoxiao asked, “Can you handle it? Don’t count on my father and Wei Ting. They might not be able to help much.”
Due to their bad work records, Su Xiaoxiao didn’t dare to have high hopes for them.
Little Wu whispered, “I can do it.”
Really, she could do it.
She had already suffered in the Liu family. This work was really nothing. Moreover, this was something she liked to do and she did not feel tired doing it.
This was probably… in line with what Daya often said about passion?
Little Wu’s eyes lit up. She really wanted to do something for Daya.
“It’s just that…” She lowered her head and pinched the corner of her shirt nervously. “I wonder if it can be done well? Will it ruin your reputation?”
Thinking of this, Little Wu regretted speaking quickly and taking responsibility.
What if she ruined the business?
Su Xiaoxiao was originally worried that she would be tired. Now that she saw that Little Wu was afraid of dragging her down, she couldn’t help but smile. “You can do it. You have to believe in yourself and my taste.”
Little Wu mustered her courage and looked into Su Xiaoxiao’s eyes. “Can… can I really… do it?”
She was going to hold the fort alone.
Ever since she was young, she had always been told was that a woman was the most useless. They helped their husbands and raised their children, worked hard, and at thirty years old became a mother-in-law.
They never seemed to be able to do things like men.
But Daya was different.
Su Xiaoxiao didn’t want to give her too much pressure. “Don’t scare yourself before you start. If I’m not afraid, what are you afraid of? I won’t blame you if it really fails. Just do it boldly!”
Little Wu took a deep breath and nodded nervously. “Okay.”
“That’s right!” Su Xiaoxiao smiled. “Then, I’ll leave the braised meat business to you. Do your best and don’t tire yourself out.”
After giving her instructions, Su Xiaoxiao returned to her small east room and began to pack her luggage for the prefecture capital.
...
She would only be there for a few days, so there was no need to tidy up too much.
She pulled open the cabinet door and hummed a tune as she took out the clothes and bag.
Wei Ting entered the room and glanced at her indifferently. He said, “Why are you so happy to go to the prefecture capital?”
Su Xiaoxiao folded her clothes and shook her head. “Yes, I’m just happy about it!”
“Hmph.” Wei Ting snorted coldly.
Su Xiaoxiao looked at him with a faint smile. “Are you so angry because you can’t bear to part with me?”
Wei Ting did not answer. Instead, he sat down on the chair expressionlessly and picked up a stack of calligraphy on the table. “Your handwriting is so ugly!”
Su Xiaoxiao pushed the blame away. “Ergou wrote it!”
“Sister! I can’t find my pants!”
Su Ergou was also packing.
“Coming!” Su Xiaoxiao put down the clothes she was folding and went to the west room. She found it immediately. “Isn’t it here?”
...
“Oh.” Su Ergou scratched his head.
When Su Xiaoxiao returned to the room, she clearly felt that her bag had been moved.
She flipped through it and found a dagger at the bottom. It was heavy and the scabbard was thick. There was no flirtatious jewelry decoration. It was simple and textured.
She gently pulled out the dagger. A cold light flashed and one could feel its sharpness and killing intent.
Su Xiaoxiao looked at Wei Ting, who was sitting at the side checking her calligraphy. She tilted her head and asked, “Did you put it there?”
Wei Ting said coldly, “Give it back to me if you don’t want it.”
Su Xiaoxiao hurriedly stuffed the dagger into her bag. “Yes! Who said I didn’t want it!”
The next time she went up the mountain and encountered a big worm, she could kill it with a slash. She no longer needed to fight to the death like last time.
Was this guy worried that she would encounter any danger on the way?
Human cognition and thinking were often related to one’s personal experience. It was much safer to go to the city on the official road than to enter the deep mountains and old forests. Ordinary people would only be worried that they would be exhausted from the journey and not adapt to the environment. The first thing Wei Ting thought of was to give her a way to protect herself.
Had he grown up in an extremely unsafe environment? Or that he had experienced too many dangers?
Su Xiaoxiao walked over and sat down beside him, gently holding his hand.
Wei Ting frowned. “What are you doing now?”
Su Xiaoxiao said, “I’m comforting you.”
The Wei Ting was speechless.
“Wei Ting, I’ll return the token to you when I return from the city.”
Su Xiaoxiao decided that after she was done with this business, she would think of a way to enter the pharmacy again and bring the token out!
Wei Ting was stunned for a moment before saying calmly, “Up to you.”
… .
At night, Su Xiaoxiao went to Su Yuniang’s house again to take Su Yuniang’s pulse.
She was still a little weak. Her spleen and stomach were not as good, so she could not over-nourish them. She also had to nurse her child, so she had to pay attention to her diet.
“Did the silver ear and sweet plum work?” Su Xiaoxiao retracted her hand and asked.
“Yes,” Su Yuniang replied vaguely, unwilling to admit that she finally understood what she meant by “don’t believe any of your farts.”
Su Xiaoxiao reminded her, “I’ll go to the city tomorrow and won’t be back for three days. If you feel uncomfortable, get someone to invite Physician Fu over from Spring Willow Lane in town. He is much more reliable than the physicians of Rongen Hall.”
Su Yuniang asked, “Are you going to remind Little Madam Zhao like this later?”
“Why do I need to remind her?” Su Xiaoxiao was confused. Madam Zhao’s body was not empty.
Su Yuniang was very satisfied.
