Chapter 538…

After dinner, everyone went about their business step by step, while Su Ziling was picking up the white flowers picked in the morning at home.

I have to pick this out quickly, blanch it in water and soak it in the evening. I have to carry it to the county to sell it tomorrow, so time is a bit tight.

After Su A'nai dried the sweet potato dregs, she moved a stool over and picked them with her.

I originally made an appointment with those children to pick white flowers, but now it seems there is no need to go.

When they came to call Su Ziling, she left them alone and asked everyone to help pick them up.

After picking it up until noon, Su Ziling fried a plate of dried fish, took out a plate of cloves, and a plate of dried sweet potatoes for them to eat.

After eating, seeing that Su Ziling was not free, they simply stopped picking and went straight to cut the chicken grass and go home with their backpacks on their backs.

Nowadays, every household raises chickens, and the most common ones are ducks. Ducks are easier to survive and feed, and the price of duck eggs collected by Su Ziling is also high.

Everyone raised ducks, and the grass these chickens and ducks ate was taken over by them.

Before dawn the next morning, there was a knock on the door of Lao Su's house.

It was Su's mother who opened the door. As soon as she opened it, she saw so many people standing at the door. She was still a little confused and didn't react.

"Peilan, it's us. Didn't Xiaoqing want white flowers? We went to pick them yesterday. Well, we heard she said she was going to send them to the county today. We were afraid that we wouldn't be able to catch up, so we got up a little earlier. Where's Xiaoqing? Are you up yet?"

"Auntie? Get up, get up, come in." Su Ziling also got up when she heard the voice. As soon as she opened the door, she heard someone asking her.

"Have you just woken up? We came a little early, mainly because we were afraid that you might not be able to catch up when you go to the county."

"Hey, it doesn't matter. We started at this point too. Auntie, please come in. It's cold outside."

Su Ziling lit the fire in the fire pit, lit the oil lamp, and took out a big basin to count.

"Auntie, have you boiled them all and kneaded them into balls? Then I'll just count them."

"Hey, click on it. We've kneaded it. Check the size. If it's small, we'll make it bigger next time, or you can squeeze two into one ball."

Everyone was a little embarrassed, fearing that they would pinch it too small and not have enough.

"Not small, not small, big enough."

In fact, they pinched it very big. The ball Su Ziling said was almost the top of a bowl, but they pinched it very tightly, and the ball was about a bowl and a half in size.

"Auntie, you have twenty regiments here, and here are thirty coins. Take it."

"Eh? This money?" The woman looked confused.

"What's wrong? Did you pay less?" Su Ziling asked with a smile.

The woman waved her hands repeatedly, "No, no, it's not less, it's more. Didn't you say one penny per penny? You..."

"Auntie, the quantity is large and worth the price."

The points were tallied quickly, and they handled them well, but the number was a bit too much, and it still took Su Ziling less than half an hour to settle them all.

Most people sold their money for eighteen or twenty cents, and a few people sold it for thirty cents.

Everyone took the money and happily left Lao Su's house. Along the way, they were still talking about where to pick food after eating.

They only earn so much in one day. They just hope that the white flowers will bloom longer and they can earn more money.

Looking at the big pots of white-flowered amomum, I felt worried, "Is this too much? If we take them all to the county, I'm afraid they won't be sold out and they will go rancid."

"I'm going to take two buckets over for a look today. I'll pickle the rest later. We can pickle them and sell them as pickles."

After Su Ziling washed up, she found seasonings and started pickling the white flowers, while Su's mother went to make breakfast.

Pickling white flowers is also relatively simple, just like pickled vegetables. After pickling, put it in a jar and seal it with water. You can eat it anytime you want. The longer it is marinated, the better the taste.

After dinner, Su Ziling and Father Su went out with vermicelli, vegetables, collected eggs, and white flowers.

Uncle Li was not at home today, so Su Ziling had to find the oxcart again.

When we arrived in the county, it was much later than usual, and the door was still open at 18.

As soon as the door opened, he was so tired that he was sweating profusely. When he saw it was Su Ziling, his face was full of smiles, "Girl, are you here? I thought you wouldn't come today."

"I was delayed a little while looking for the bullock cart. How is the business in the store?"

As soon as Su Ziling walked in, the idiot was so happy that his tail was wagging.

"Business? It's much better than a year ago. Didn't we add preserved egg and lean meat porridge? This porridge is very popular, especially when paired with your pickled side dishes."

Su Ziling raised her eyebrows, obviously not too surprised, everything was expected.

"I brought new dishes today. There are so many people now that I can try them. You help my dad put the things away while I go to the kitchen."

After she finished speaking, Su Ziling carried Bai Hua to the kitchen.

Qingjiu was holding the spoon, and Bai Wei was helping. Her belly looked much bigger.

"The girl is here."

Seeing Su Ziling come in, Qingjiu just said hello and continued busy.

"Are you too busy to come over? Third Aunt, I'll do it."

Bai Wei smiled and waved her hand, indicating no need.

Seeing that they were still busy, Su Ziling didn't bother them anymore. She fetched a bucket of water and soaked the white flowers.

She took a few bowls, grabbed two handfuls of white flowers, put the seasonings on them, mixed them evenly and gave them to Shiba, "Half a bowl is given to each table, so it's a free tasting of new dishes."

"Hey, I got it."

This set of eighteen-cooked dishes is basically given out for everyone to try when they serve new dishes. The quantity is not large, so just taste it. If it tastes good, everyone will naturally sell it.

Sure enough, just after a cup of tea, the lobby was filled with voices calling waiter, one after another.

"Xiao Er, what is this new dish? It's so delicious. Give me a bowl!"

"Boy, how much does a bowl of this cost? Give me a bowl too."

"Boy, this way!"

Shiba and Li Zelan were very busy, and Su Ziling was responsible for stirring things up in the back.

"Cousin, what kind of flower is this? It looks a bit familiar."

Li Zelan just served the dishes and had time to talk to Su Ziling.

"It's just Bailuhua. It seems you don't have it there. We only have it in our village. When uncle and the others come later, remember to ask them to take some back to eat."

"Hey, I got it. I guess it won't come until the day after tomorrow. They just went back not long ago..." Before Li Zelan could finish speaking, someone from outside urged him again.

"Xiao Er, Xiao Er!"

"Coming, coming!" Li Zelan yelled back, pointing outside, signaling for him to get busy.
