152 Chapter 152 Do You Want It Or Not
After Zhou Ying got up and gave him a tael of silver, she told him about the tools he needed to buy, especially the grinding stone. The ones they had were shipped to the restaurant.
As for the other tools they needed to make tofu, she could use the ones at home.
After that, she went home.
Seeing that it was still early, she wanted to go into her interspace to make a seafood feast. However, just as she was about to lock up, she saw Sister Tian walking over.
She had no choice but to let her into the house. “I haven’t been here for a day, and it’s rather cold in the house. Sister, please sit down first, and I’ll start a fire.”
“There’s no need as it’s just a few words. I’ll leave after I’m done.”
“Sure, what is it?.”
“Well, Da Hua has been quieter than before and doesn’t like to go out to play.”
“So… I was wondering if you could let her help out in the restaurant. She doesn’t need a paycheck; just two meals will do, and I just want her to be in contact with more people.”
After Zhou Ying heard this, she thought of the well-behaved and sensible Da Hua and then of Chun Niang, who was always physically exhausted. Finally, she nodded and said, “That’s no problem, so just let her follow Brother Tian to work every day.”
“Thank you so much, sister. I’ve caused you trouble.”
“No, no. Also, I will give her a salary and arrange for her to work under a pastry chef. As for whether she can learn anything, it will depend on her.”
After hearing this, Sister Tian’s eyes suddenly lit up. It was always a good thing to learn some craft; once she learned it, it would be her own. In the future, she would be confident when she married into her in-laws’ house.
Thinking of this, she nodded. “I thank you on behalf of Da Hua. You and your husband are really saviors of our family.”
“You’re exaggerating; you’ve helped us a lot too. Just tell Da Hua to learn well when she gets there.”
“Oh, of course. I’ll let you get back to your job and tell Da Hua the good news.” Elder Sister Tian thanked Zhou Ying and hurriedly walked back.
After she left, Zhou Ying locked the door and then started a fire. After adding some firewood, she entered her interspace to make a feast.
When she was done, she opened the door and waited for Gu Chengrui to return.
On the other end, Gu Chengrui was at the Gu residence. After telling Mrs. Liu and Mrs. Yao the recipes, he was about to leave when suddenly, Mrs. Liu called out to him, “Chengrui, aren’t you trying to fool us? These few recipes aren’t difficult.”
“Take it or leave it. This is my wife’s own recipe, and the rest is the craftsmanship taught to her by her master; those are our restaurant’s signature desserts, and I can’t give those to you.” Gu Chengrui stated firmly, and he returned home with Er Zhuang, who was playing with Gu Chengxi…
“Darling, look at him….” Mrs. Liu turned her head and wanted to complain about Gu Chengrui.
However, Father Gu chided her. “I think you don’t know what’s good for you. If you think the recipe is plain, you can create one yourself.”
“Indeed. Although these recipes are ordinary, they are suitable for selling in small shops. The Lotus Crisp you made is delicious, but how many customers bought it?
“Also, I’ve told you about the date cake, which is delicious and cheap.
“You’re just lazy, reaching beyond your grasp and always thinking about making big money without doing any actual work.
“If you really can’t do it, Mrs. Guo and Mrs. Sun will go to town, and you can stay here to do the housework.” Madam Qiao said this, shaking her head in disappointment.
“Mother, we’ll listen to you and try it tomorrow. We so happen to have some green beans at home.” Mrs. Yao heard the anger in Madam Qiao’s words and hurriedly assured her.
But Madam Qiao didn’t pay any more attention but looked at Mrs. Liu. “It’s time for you to take care of Chengye’s marriage. So, stop looking for some wealthy young lady.
“Just find a good-looking and capable farmer’s girl with a tight-knit family.”
