Su Zimu blinked, "If this happens, wouldn't the third aunt and I be unemployed?"

Su Ziling burst out laughing, "When the stall in the col is set up, Third Aunt can go there to sell steamed buns, and I can come back to set up the sweet potato workshop and start making dry sweet potato powder. If you want, I can I’m thinking about going to school.”

"My family's debts have all been paid off, and I have some extra money in my hand. You go to school first, and you don't have to worry about the family affairs."

Mr. Su nodded, "That's okay. I'll invite your third uncle and the others over some other day. Then I'll ask them if they are willing."

Mr. Su also understands that according to what Su Ziling said so far, she sells steamed buns and sweet potato flour, and she also wants to open a workshop, as well as tea leaves from the mountains and dried sweet potato flour. The family's manpower is really too busy. .

"Wait a while, let's sell it for the next few days. When the rain clears, I will try to see how the business of steamed buns is going, but I guess it won't be too bad!"

Su Ziling thought for a while and then thought of her grandmother's house, "Grandpa, you see, you can't do any work or sell tofu today. It's idle anyway. How about we go to my grandmother's house?"

"The road is slippery on this rainy day. You can wait until the weather clears before going." Mr. Su disagreed.

"The weather is sunny and there are mushrooms everywhere. I'm going to pick up the mushrooms and sell steamed buns. If the steamed bun business goes well and my uncle and the others agree to sell tofu, I will take them with me for a few more days. I will also take time to visit the school and arrange for two cows. How can I still have time for studying? I’m afraid I’ll get busier and busier in the future.”

When the weather is clear, the fungi on the mountain are in patches, and you can make a lot of money with these fungi!

Even if you can't make a profit, you can still dry it and use it to make steamed buns later, or sell wild mushroom soup in the shed in winter, which will make people greedy!

Mother Su frowned and said, "Why don't we wait for Er Niu to study?"

Su Ziling: "Are you still waiting? He's already ten years old. We can't wait any longer. Mom, aren't you annoyed by his mischief every day? That's just right. Just pack it up and send it to school. Out of sight, out of mind!"

When Mother Su heard this, she made sense!

Then he nodded, "Okay, as soon as the rain stops, go and inquire about it, and see it off as soon as possible!"

Su Zimu: "..."

How much does his mother-in-law bother him?

However, I can finally go to school!

Thinking of this, he couldn't hold back the corners of his lips, so he had to take two bites of the bun.

Studying, this was something he had never dared to think about before.

After hearing what Su Ziling said, Mr. Su's head went numb! He patted his thigh and said, "Go, you can clean up after dinner, and the whole family of four can go!"

However, although there are more and more things happening, there is also more and more hope!

The days are getting better day by day. How could I have dared to think about the present day? Look at now, I have dry rice, white flour steamed buns, yesterday’s chicken, and today’s braised pork. How could I have dared to think about this before!

In the past, I couldn't even eat enough, let alone eat meat, and there was no oil or water. Now, I often eat meat, as well as vegetables. They are all stir-fried, and there is plenty of oil and water.

"I haven't ordered any meat at home, so it's hard to go empty-handed." Su Ziling glanced at the tofu she had just made this morning, "I just brought the tofu with me. Grandma, do you still have some cloth left?"

Su A'nai smiled and said, "There are plenty of them. There are about half of each color left. You can bring them with you when the time comes."

Su Ziling nodded, "Okay, I'll sell the ones at home next time."

"There's no need to sell it. Everyone in the family has made a suit of clothes. We'll sell them in the winter. Then one of us can make a thicker suit."

Although the clothes haven't been finished yet, Su A'nai has cut all the ones she needs, and the rest is just enough to take with her.

"I still have to buy it. Then I will make two robes for Er Niu. He is going to school, but he can no longer wear this kind of clothes. He is skinny, and those clothes are in ruins. If they are torn in the school, there will be no one to help him sew them. ."

Su A'nai thought about it and said, "Then I'll buy something darker. I'm afraid the light color won't stand up to stains."

Su Ziling nodded, and then murmured something, "If I had known, I would have bought more meat. I haven't shown much respect to my two uncles and grandparents in these years."

"You don't need to bring meat. Although there have been less prey in recent years, your uncle and his uncle can still eat pheasants, rabbits, bamboo rats and the like often. They have no shortage of meat to eat. Bring the tofu and two pieces of cloth, which is almost enough. ." Mother Su said.

Mother Su has not been back for a long time. She is not in good health and cannot walk too far. The last time she went back was during the Qingming Festival last year. At that time, Grandma Li fell down. She gritted her teeth and went back to take a look. After returning, I just stayed in bed for two days.

Su Ziling thought for a while, "Let me make a corn cake. It's quite delicious. If you make more, it can be considered a pastry."

"Are you quick? The road is not easy to walk on rainy days. Now that the rain is light and there is no water on the mountain road, you can go faster. If you go later, it will probably become slippery."

Mr. Su looked at the drizzle outside, looking a little worried.

"Quick!" Su Ziling drank the last mouthful of polenta paste and put down the bowl and chopsticks, "I'm going to make the dough first. After a while, the food will be ready and almost ready to be steamed. It's also very fast with a gong pot."

She made a lot of baking powder, which was just in time for use. None of her family members had eaten it, so she thought of making more at once to try it all.

We don’t have any snacks at home, so we just made some to eat at home on a rainy day.

Making corn cake is relatively simple. Just add a little more cornmeal, a small amount of flour, beat two eggs into it, add baking powder, and use brown sugar and warm water to knead the dough.

She also cut some wild dates into it, and the dough was relatively soft. After mixing, she covered it with a basin and placed it on the stove to rise.

Wait until the dough has doubled in size, then knead it again to release the air, "Mom, help me light the fire."

"Oh, here it comes!" Su's mother didn't understand either, she just did whatever Su Ziling said.

She took a basin, lined it with banana leaves, and greased it with oil to prevent the cake from sticking to it.

After applying oil, pour the noodles in, dip your hands in some water, smooth the surface, and then let it rise for the second time.

When the water in the pot boils and the noodles have doubled in size, just steam them directly in the pot.

"Is this enough?" Mother Su raised her eyebrows, feeling that it was quite simple.

"It's almost done. Mom, let's go change clothes. I think it's almost done by the time we get the things ready and set off." Su Ziling nodded.

The family of four went to change clothes, and asked Bai Wei to help look after the fire. It only takes a moment to steam over the fire, and then the fire can be extinguished, and the pot can be cooked after a cup of tea.

There weren't many things, just a bucket of tofu and the remaining piece of cloth. Su A'nai packed half a sack of coarse grains for them, and even took out the sweet potato candies Su'a'nai bought that day.

"There are a lot more, take them with you. We can buy them next time if we want to eat them."

As he said that, he also packed some of Su Ziling's Braised Pork and Braised Fatty Sausages. There were a lot of braised pork sausages. Just one day after making them, they didn't sell much. It started raining. I thought they wouldn't last long, so I packed more.

The family of four wore new clothes, and their shoes were straw sandals, mainly because the cloth shoes were ruined by the rain.
