Oh my god, I became the vicious stepmother of four villains
Chapter 163: Too Busy Before the Opening of the Store
"When will your comrades come to the county town?" Xia Yingying asked Lu Ziren.
"I will send them a letter tomorrow and it will probably arrive within a month. They are a bit far from our home and it will take them a little longer to get here." Lu Ziren answered seriously, but his eyes were always fixed on Xia Yingying's eyes and lips.
"Okay." After Lu Ziren said this, Xia Yingying had an idea in her mind.
During the period when Comrade Lu Ziren had not arrived yet, the task of beating the eggs had to be left to Chen Yi and Lu Ziren.
A few days later, Lu Ziren had to go to the military camp, and there was no one else to beat the eggs, so he had to ask Chen Yi to help him beat the eggs.
The reason why we can’t invite other people is mainly because we don’t dare to invite them.
Besides, Xiuniang and Chen Yi are in love now and are still in the contact stage. They are not married yet and have not talked about living together. It is okay for Xia Yingying to ask Chen Yi to help beat the eggs. Even if they get married, beating eggs is harmless.
But during this period of time, the two people in love had to endure it. Especially after Lu Ziren left, the workload of beating eggs increased and had to be handed over to Chen Yi.
Chen Yi had a heavy burden on his shoulders.
But Xia Yingying will give him corresponding remuneration and will not treat him unfairly.
"I'm going to open the shop the day after tomorrow, and I don't think you can beat the eggs by yourself. You can ask Chen Yi to help you then." Xia Yingying offered.
"Okay." Lu Ziren also agreed.
"If you are leaving in a few days, I will prepare dry food for you and you don't have to buy any extra. Tomorrow when you are free, go to the market and buy some lean pork. Leg meat and tenderloin are best." Xia Yingying instructed Lu Ziren.
Lu Ziren was about to leave, but his dry food had not been prepared yet. Xia Yingying had been extremely busy these days and had completely forgotten about it, and only remembered it just now.
The pastries in the pastry shop are the top priority in Xia Yingying's mind. She has to make the pastries first before considering making dry food for Lu Ziren. Xia Yingying originally wanted to make it in a few days, but she was afraid that she would be too busy in a few days and forget everything, so she planned to make it in advance. Besides, beef jerky and pork jerky can be stored for several months without any problem.
When Lu Ziren heard that Xia Yingying was going to prepare dry food for him, he originally didn't want to let her be busy. But when he thought that he couldn't eat Xia Yingying's cooking for so long, it would be good to have some of her other cooking.
"Yeah." Lu Ziren didn't ask Xia Yingying why she bought the pork, and agreed in a good mood.
After reaching an agreement with Lu Ziren, Xia Yingying fell asleep.
However, Lu Ziren was so excited because Xia Yingying said she would prepare dry food for him that he could not sleep most of the night. He got up early the next morning to practice martial arts to vent his emotions.
After getting up, Chen Yi told him about beating eggs, and Chen Yi agreed. Xiuniang's inn was almost ready, and only the finishing touches were left.
The previous tenant also used it as an inn. The decoration of the inn has not changed much. Xiuniang mainly repaired it and continued to use it, saving as much as possible.
In addition, Xiuniang planned to use the floor below the inn as a restaurant, so she could earn two profits.
When she was in town before, she could only stay overnight. When she met customers who wanted to eat in the store, Xiuniang usually went to the restaurant to order food, which was not cost-effective at all. It would be better to build a small kitchen and cook by herself.
After Lu Haoran, Lu Haojie, Lu Ziren and Chen Yi practiced martial arts, Chen Yi went to tell Xiuniang that he would not be going there today. Lu Haoran and Lu Haojie took a clean basin to beat eggs.
After Lu Yuwei woke up, she helped separate the egg whites and yolks, and Lu Ziren was also doing the same.
When Xia Yingying got up, they had already divided two basins of eggs into one.
Lu Ziren has already started beating the eggs.
After washing up, Xia Yingying made and baked biscuits first, and then started to make pastries that required beating eggs.
For breakfast, we had beef rice noodles made by Song Ruyi. Last time, Xia Yingying made a big pot of crispy beef, and there is still some left, which is just enough to eat it all in one meal.
Xiuniang knew that Xia Yingying was going to open a shop tomorrow and originally planned to come over to help, but then she thought that Xia Yingying's pastry recipe was a secret and if she came over people would gossip about her, so she didn't come.
After beating the egg whites, Xia Yingying began to make egg cake and tiger skin cake.
Both ovens were filled with cookies. Soon, the aroma of the cookies floated in the air. People passing by stopped to smell the sweet scent in the air and didn't want to leave.
"It smells so good, why does it smell so good? What on earth is this? When the store opens tomorrow, I must buy some and try it."
"Yes, I have never smelled anything so fragrant even in Tianxianglou in the capital when I was so young."
After saying that, he swallowed.
The shop, which had not yet opened, was already crowded with onlookers. Many people stood in front of the door, and some even stood by the crack of the door, squinting to see what was going on inside.
It was a pity that Xia Yingying was making cakes in the kitchen of the residence, and they couldn't see anything even if they peeked through the crack of the door. Because the workload of making cakes this time was too large, the kitchen was very crowded with so many people together, so Lu Ziren came to the yard to beat eggs.
The oven is also in the yard, emitting a constant aroma.
After the cookies from the two ovens came out of the oven, Xia Yingying and Song Ruyi poured the cookies into a large basin. When the basin was full, Xia Yingying thought that was enough, so she stopped making them and turned to make egg cakes.
Because the egg whites had been beaten and the ingredients were ready, Xia Yingying only had to stir the batter and then pour it into the cake mold she brought from Qingshui Town.
Before coming here, Xia Yingying had asked Uncle Yang to make some extra pastry molds for her, which came in handy now.
As usual, there are two ovens for egg cakes.
Many people sat in front of Xia Yingying's shop after dinner, smelling the indescribable fragrance.
The nursery rhymes in the county were still being sung. People were originally a little disdainful and wait-and-see, but since this overbearing sweet smell invaded their noses, people spontaneously talked about the happy thing in the county.
By the afternoon, more and more people came to the store. Xia Yingying didn't know yet and was worrying whether she had done too much.
Because a lot of cakes and pastries were made this time, and there were many varieties, Xia Yingying was so busy that she didn't have time to eat lunch. Except for a bowl of rice noodles in the morning, the family didn't eat anything, but their stomachs were full because they had been eating cakes. By the evening, their stomachs were still a little bloated.
When it was almost time for dinner, Xia Yingying was still busy baking the cake.
Song Ruyi was originally helping, but she didn't eat lunch. Since she had to eat in the evening, Song Ruyi went to cook.
Song Ruyi's dinner had just been prepared and all the baked pastries were done. Xia Yingying slumped in the chair as if she had no bones, not wanting to move even a finger.
Lu Ziren and Chen Yi did the same. In addition to beating the eggs, they also helped to watch the fire and stir the batter. Because the amount of work today was large, the two of them consumed their internal energy quickly and looked a little tired, but not as exaggerated as Xia Yingying.
Because I ate a lot of cakes, I didn't eat much of the dishes on the table. "Please vote"
