"Where did you... come from?" The voice was a little choked.

"Sister Ah Qing gave it to me when she asked me to help pick up snails." The child's voice was aggrieved.

But no, I came back happily after making money, and even though I was not praised, I was scolded, forget it, and I was almost beaten.

Only then did the adults realize that there was a misunderstanding. She immediately retracted the hand holding the stick, put it behind her back, and threw it away with a "shoo", pretending that the stick had never appeared.

The child looked at her with an aggrieved look, and the adult smiled coquettishly, "You child, since it was your eldest sister who asked for help, why didn't you tell me earlier!"

The child pursed his lips, "You didn't even give me a chance! You scolded me as soon as I walked in the door, and you didn't even give me a chance to speak. You even wanted to hit me!"

"I didn't." The voice was a little weak.

The child complained loudly, "If you did, the stick would almost fall on me!"

"Okay, okay, grandma is wrong, grandma is wrong, grandma misunderstood you, oh look, we are wronged, grandma is wrong, can I steam an egg for you?"

She was quite stubborn at first, and tears kept rolling in her eyes, until A Niang said this by mistake, and the tears fell one by one like broken water drops.

But he didn't forget to put the money into Grandma's hand, "Don't curse me next time, even if you don't ask me."

The child was crying and hiccupping.

"Okay, okay, okay, grandma will definitely ask me clearly next time, but you get three cents for picking up a snail?"

Hearing that it was three cents, he stopped crying. He wiped away his tears and quickly looked at the money in his palm. He had not bothered to look at it just now, but now he realized that it was three cents.

The child immediately broke down in tears and laughed, "Originally, there were only two pennies, but Sister Aqing said that whoever picked up the most would be given an extra penny, so there were three pennies."

"Oh, my son is so good, he can even make money! Go, go, go, my mother will fetch water for you to take a bath. You go and wash yourself, and I will steam an egg for you."

That night, the whole village was in a state of panic. I was already exhausted from harvesting crops during the day, but when I returned home, I forgot about the absence of my children. But my back was covered in mud, and no one could stand it.

So I didn't have time to ask, so I just chased the guy who copied me first, scolding me and chasing me, while the kid ran and screamed for injustice.

In the end, the pursuit stopped abruptly when he saw the money. He realized that there was a misunderstanding and went to coax the little ancestor.

The next day, Su Ziling took the sandy snails and ice powder seeds with her and set out on the road to the county town with Li Zelan.

Mr. Su and the others were also traveling with them. Everyone picked up a load of fungus paste and took a sack along with it. The old man meant that he would be even busier later and wanted to deliver the fungus paste this morning. Since we were all delayed, we might as well just delay it. Let's pick some tea from the tea forest in the morning.

I'll probably get busier and busier in the future, and I won't have time to pick it by then, so I might as well pick it back today.

But fortunately there are many people, so it won’t take long to finish picking.

When they arrived at Xinghualou, Su Ziling and Li Zelan first made ice powder and cooked glutinous rice balls. Oh, there was an extra ingredient today, which was honey red beans.

Yesterday, I heard her saying that there were too few snacks and that she should find some time to look for red beans or fruits. Su A'nai happened to hear it and she said, "You still want to look for it? We have it at home!"

Seeing the little red beans Su A'Nai took out, she was so excited, "Grandma, we still have little red beans at home, I didn't even know."

"You must not know. This is what you changed when you changed tofu. Axiu and I have been choosing for a long time."

There weren't many red beans, only four or five kilograms, but they were enough for a long time. She soaked the red beans as soon as she got them. She didn't soak a lot, so she cooked enough for today.

The red beans were soaked overnight. I got up early this morning, lit the fire, and simmered it slowly in the gong pot. I also used half a piece of brown sugar, which made Su'a milk feel bad, but fortunately it tasted good and I could cook it well. It was quite successful.

After boiling, put it in the well and hang it until you set off.

After the ice powder was mixed, it was hung in the well. Although he knew that no one would come, Li Zelan still stood by the well and watched.

Su Ziling took the snails to shopkeeper Wang Zhang.

In just two or three days, two hundred jars of fungus paste were sold out, and today another five hundred jars were brought back. Wang Fusheng looked at the people eating in the hall on the first floor and was so happy that he never closed his mouth.

When he heard Su Ziling looking for him, he touched his mustache and walked very fast, "Xiao Su, I heard that you brought something good today. What is it? It's mysterious."

Su Ziling smiled, "I wonder if the shopkeeper has ever seen this thing?"

She opened the banana leaves on the bucket, and a fishy smell hit her nostrils. Wang Fusheng frowned subconsciously, but then he thought that it was Su Ziling who mentioned it, so it couldn't be wrong.

"Isn't this a snail?"

Su Ziling nodded, "Yes, I wonder if the shopkeeper has eaten it?"

Wang Fusheng shook his head, "I haven't eaten it before, but is this thing really edible?"

"Why don't I show my hand to the shopkeeper and then you can comment?" Seeing her being so mysterious and having learned from past mistakes, Wang Fusheng did not refuse, but agreed, "Okay. Then I'll wait and see!"

Su Ziling smiled and said nothing, and asked the shopkeeper for a pair of scissors. She took out a loofah pulp, washed the snails one by one, removed the tail, took the seasonings and went into the kitchen.

I don’t know if Wang Fusheng had told her that the chef had specially left a stove for her, and someone had made the fire for her.

Su Ziling took out the prepared ingredients and started frying the snails.

The restaurant has a lot of seasonings, and she brought plenty of ingredients and was willing to add oil. After a spicy snail dish came out of the pot, the whole kitchen was filled with the scent of snails.

Wang Fusheng didn't know when he had arrived at the door of the kitchen. His eyes lit up when he smelled the fragrance.

"Uncle Wang is here. That's just right. I don't have to go look for you to taste it." Su Ziling took out the sticks that had been prepared and taught him how to eat them.

"How about it?"

Looking at Wang Fusheng who couldn't stop eating one, Su Ziling raised her eyebrows.

Wang Fusheng nodded, "It's delicious! You can't feel a trace of fishy smell at all. It's spicy and spicy, and it's enjoyable to eat, but it doesn't sit well with your meal."

"I can't eat it, but what do you think about drinking it?"

Wang Fusheng: "!!!"

He slapped his leg as if waking up from a dream, "Yes, yes, yes! Drink, definitely drink, this is much better than peanuts!"

"How do you sell this?"
