Su Binglan’s eyes lit up as she wondered why she had not thought of that. She said, “You know more than I do. Now we won’t have to buy cotton and can just
fill the dolls with rags or wheat husks. They’ll look just as good.
“We can also make higher-end dolls stuffed with cotton and sell them at a higher price. We can make cheaper and more expensive ones. Then the villagers can afford them too.”
Su Binglan always considered different spending standards for people whenever she started a business. She would not deliberately make high-end products for poorer people who could not afford them.
That way, she could consider both classes of people and make cheap and expensive products.
Ding Wan’s smile became even wider when her niece praised her. She also thought she was helpful and would be more confident in helping her niece manage the embroidery shop.
“That’s all I know. I’m not as knowledgable as you, Binglan.”
“You can’t undervalue yourself, Aunt Ding. Everyone has seen your embroidery skills,” Su Binglan said, “If I were to teach these techniques to others, they might not be able to learn it, but you could quickly grasp it.”
Ding Wan was brilliant in Su Binglan’s eyes. Moreover, Ding Wan was talented in embroidery, so Su Binglan could feel at ease when her aunt was in charge of the embroidery shop.
Ding Wan was so happy that she laughed out loud. “Ah, I’m so embarrassed to be praised by you.”
Although she said this, Ding Wan was thrilled. She had not been this happy in a long time. After all, she had learned new embroidery techniques from her niece and discussed the shop with her.
Time passed very quickly, and it was soon noon. Ding Wan looked at the sun outside and said, “Binglan, it’s already noon. Let’s have lunch at my place. I’ll go cook now.”
She did not want her niece to go home because she still wanted to learn much more from her. As she talked and embroidered this morning, she felt that time had passed quickly.
Su Binglan was stunned. She felt she had not done much, so why was it already noon? She sighed.
‘Time passed by so quickly.’
“Aunt Ding, you don’t have to do that. I’ll go home for lunch and be back afterward. ”
However, Ding Wan felt she could not let her niece walk home for lunch. She held her niece’s hand and said, “Just eat here. Your parents, Third Aunt Liu, and your uncle have sent me many things. I have plenty of food here.
“Your Uncle Fengzhang and cousin Wenxian aren’t coming home for lunch today, so it’s just the two of us. I know my food can’t compare to your mother’s, so I hope you don’t mind.”
Su Binglan looked at Ding Wan’s eager expression and could only nod, “All right, I’ll eat at your place then. I’ll help you cook.”
Ding Wan could not stop smiling at her niece’s words. “Aw, I’ll be able to eat your cooking for lunch today! It must be delicious.”
She did not feel hungry at first, but when she heard her niece saying she would help with the cooking, Ding Wan felt like she was starving. She said, “I’ll be your assistant.”
She had eaten Su Binglan’s cooking before, so she knew how delicious it was. Even Su Binglan’s Eight Treasures congee was exceptionally sweet.
Ding Wan looked at her niece expectantly, wondering what they would eat for lunch. She knew Su Binglan could make simple foods more delicious.
Su Binglan looked at the pot and the vegetables, but Ding Wan did not know what her niece was thinking. Ding Wan said, “Binglan, we can have something simple. You don’t have to trouble yourself too much.”
She knew her niece must be busy and could only spend a little time cooking.
Su Binglan looked at the food and then at the plate on the table. She asked, “Aunt Ding, is this the rice you made in the morning?
“Yes, I steamed it in the morning, but I might’ve over-steamed it. Your uncle, Wenxian, and I each had a bowl. There’s still a lot of rice in the pot.” Ding Wan felt a little embarrassed because she was not that good at cooking.
She typically steamed or boiled whatever she made. Fortunately, Su Fengzhang and Su Wenxian never thought her food tasted terrible. The father and son duo used to cook for Ding Wan when she was weak.
Now that Ding Wan had recovered, she wanted to do more for her family, so she took the initiative to cook for them daily. Still, she knew the food she made was ordinary and straightforward.
However, Su Fengzhang and his son did not complain and said her cooking was delicious.
“Let’s make egg fried rice for lunch, Aunt Ding. It’s simple and delicious.” Su Binglan’s eyes lit up.
“Egg fried rice?” Ding Wan was confused because it was her first time hearing of such a dish. She wondered if the dish was simply as the name stated.
Although she did not know what it was, she believed in her niece’s cooking.
“All right, let’s make egg fried rice. If you need anything, just tell me.” Ding Wan rolled up her sleeves as she spoke to make it easier for her to cook.
Su Binglan said, “Help me wash the radish and scallions while I crack the eggs, Aunt Ding.”
“All right,” Ding Wan replied as she washed the radishes and scallions.
Meanwhile, Su Binglan cracked two eggs into a bowl and then used her chopsticks to beat them.
“Your grandmother sent us these eggs,” Ding Wan said, “I plan to hatch a nest of chicks with them in a few days. I’ll raise some chickens and cook their eggs once they lay them.”
She and her family had nothing left when they returned home, but Su Fengmao and Su Fengzhi, her second and third brothers-in-law, had sent her and her family some supplies.
Otherwise, Ding Wan and her family would not have anything to eat. Her second and third brothers-in-law even planted and harvested grains for the family.
Ding Wan felt very apologetic. However, Su Fengmao and Su Fengzhi said they were one family, so there was no need to be sorry. Ding Wan felt a warmth in her heart when the two brothers said that.
She had caring relatives, and the family was harmonious. She was full of hope for life when she recovered and felt energetic in everything she did. She also hoped to help her second and third brothers-in-law in the future.
“Your mother sent me this rice.”
Su Binglan smiled. “It was long ago, but I remember you cooking delicious food for my family and me when I was younger. My siblings and I loved eating your food and hoped you would visit as often as possible.”
“That was so many years ago,” Ding Wan said, stunned, “You’ve grown up in a flash. ”
A long time had unknowingly passed. Su Binglan was still a child then but had grown in the blink of an eye. Ding Wan’s son had also grown up so fast.
Su Binglan diced the radishes and scallions when her aunt finished washing them. Immediately after, Su Binglan placed the rice into the egg and mixed it well.
Ding Wan watched from the sidelines and thought she would do that for her husband and son next time.
Meanwhile, Su Binglan patiently explained her cooking process, “The rice will absorb the eggs’ fragrance when you mix them like this. You can watch now and cook egg fried rice for Uncle Fengzhang and Cousin Wenxian in the future.
“You can also make other dishes like green pepper chicken alongside egg fried rice. You can always mix and match dishes, especially with this fried rice..”
