“We’ll do as Yue’er says!” Aunt Wang patted her son’s hand.
She admired Lin Xiaoyue’s approach.
Liu Shi was really blessed.
As they spoke, the three of them returned to the Liu family.
Aunt Liu was not very busy at home, but she was a little anxious.
She had already sold 3 of the 5 remaining buckets of cold cakes.
She wanted to make the cold cakes herself and with the help of the two children, she ground the rice.
…..
She followed her daughter’s instructions, but because she didn’t have any experience, she messed up the cold cakes.
After discovering that cold cakes actually had a burnt smell and couldn’t be eaten, her heart ached.
She quickly went to wash the pot, but she didn’t dare to try again.
She was feeling apprehensive and worried that Wang Shuanzhi would return before her daughter and that there would be no cold cakes for him. In the end, they all came back together.
When Lin Xiaoyue learned of the situation, she looked at her mother and didn’t know whether to laugh or cry.
After Lin Xiaoyue comforted her, she turned around and smiled at Wang Shuanzi in embarrassment.
“It’s not early anymore. Since you’re back, rest for a while and set off in the afternoon.”
“Alright! I was worried that I won’t be able to make it back for lunch!” Wang Shuanzi immediately said. He didn’t want Liu Shi to feel guilty.
In fact, he rushed back in a hurry to leave again.
He planned to go to Xiangyang Village before lunch and walk around the village. He would definitely be able to sell some cold cakes.
If he sold it in the village, he could put the cold cakes into the villagers’ own bowls. He didn’t even need to wait for them to finish eating.
“I made too little cold cakes last night. However, it won’t happen again. I bought 10 more wooden buckets today.” Lin Xiaoyue thought for a moment. “I’ll see how it goes tonight and make 10 more. I’ll definitely not let us run out of cold cakes in the future.”
In addition to the 10 wooden buckets she had bought today, there were a total of 60 in the house. Actually, it should be enough.
However, she would rather have more than less.
“There’s still some rice paste left. Why don’t you make some while it’s still early?” Liu Shi asked.
Sigh, Shuanzi’s business was so good. She felt bad that he couldn’t sell more because of her.
“How much?” Lin Xiaoyue smiled and went straight to the kitchen.
“Not much. It’s half a barret. Enough to make two buckets!” Liu Shi hurriedly chased after her. When she said this, her heart ached a little.
If she had known that she couldn’t do it well, she would have added less rice paste.
She wasted an entire pot, that was quite a lot of money!
“Then I’ll make 2! It’ll be better for Shuanzi to make arrangements after lunch!” Lin Xiaoyue said.
“I’ll start the fire!” Liu Shi quickly said.
“Let Shuanzi help you wash the wooden buckets, I’ll help you with the chores!” Aunt Wang said.
“Sure! Then you two will stay and have lunch together!” Lin Xiaoyue said immediately.
“Alright!” Unexpectedly, Aunt Wang didn’t refuse today.
Lin Xiaoyue was happy.
This was good. Being polite would only delay things.
The kitchen quickly became busy.
She only made two buckets of cold cakes, and the lime water had been mixed in advance, so it didn’t take too long.
Lin Xiaoyue was done in just over 15 minutes.
After that, Lin Xiaoyue soaked another 45 catties of rice. She wanted to rest for a while after the meal before preparing the cold cakes for the afternoon.
“We are going to run out of rice soon. I’ll go to Mr. Qian again in the afternoon to buy a few hundred catties of rice. I’ll have him deliver it to us.” Lin Xiaoyue muttered..
