Shen Yingxue had lived in the Shen family for half a month, and she didn't know many snack recipes. She only handed over a candied haws.
"Just this one?"
Zhou Shui'an frowned, feeling that Shen Yingxue was hiding something secret, and Shen Yingxue laughed to herself.
"My sister-in-law taught me this one thing, and she did everything else herself."
"waste!"
"Okay, sir, don't embarrass your sister. My mother and I have been to the Shen family's shop. This candied haws is the best-selling one. We will definitely make money by doing it."
Zhao Yuan believed that Shen Yingxue was telling the truth. In her opinion, Jiang Miao was stupid for teaching her such an important recipe. Zhou Shui'an listened to Zhao Yuan's dissuasion and did not continue to embarrass Shen Yingxue. He took the key and opened the door. Zhou Ling was released and without even looking at her, she took the money and went out to pick hawthorns.
Shen Yingxue hugged her daughter tightly, with tears in her eyes and only hatred for the Zhou family in her heart.
Jiang Kee Dim Sum Shop
Jiang Miao made sweet-scented osmanthus almond tofu today. The milk is as white as jade and has a chewy texture. It also tastes slightly fragrant with sweet-scented osmanthus. It is particularly tempting when served in a small white porcelain bowl.
The guests were accustomed to buying snacks, but this was the first time they saw desserts. Several ladies asked curiously, "What is this? It looks like tofu."
"Almond tofu, with a layer of osmanthus honey drizzled on the outside, would you like to have some, madam?"
Because it comes in a bowl, if you want to take it away, you have to pay for it to be packed away. Most customers choose to finish it in the shop, and they praise it all the time.
"This is delicious and smooth in the mouth. I swallowed it before I could even chew it."
"Yes, it is sweet but not greasy and has a milky flavor. It is not fishy at all. I have eaten snacks with milk before, and the fishy smell almost made me vomit."
The ladies enjoyed their meal so much that people passing by wanted to come in and try it. It was sold out in a short while. Some of those who didn’t eat were in a low mood. They didn’t know when Mrs. Jiang would make it next time. Jiang Ji’s dim sum It's all about grabbing. If you go slower, you won't be able to eat. They regained their energy after being lost for a while. If there is no almond tofu, there is something else.
"Ms. Jiang, here are two bunches of candied haws."
"Okay, twenty coins in total." Jiang Miao handed her the food. Before the lady could say anything, the woman behind started yelling angrily.
"Oh, your store is too evil. A bunch of candied haws gourds costs ten cents, while other stores only sell them for five cents. I'm afraid you are trying to steal the money!"
The woman's voice was so noisy that the guests around her couldn't help but frown. The family was not short of money if they could afford Jiang Ji's snacks, not to mention the candied haws of sugar-coated haws, which was Jiang Ji's cheapest food. They didn't think Jiang Miao was evil-hearted. , and felt that she had gotten a big deal, so after the woman said this, many people criticized her.
"If you think it's expensive, don't buy it. Don't be an eyesore in front of Lady Jiang."
"That's right, I wish Mrs. Jiang would sell it more expensively so that I don't have to grab it every time!"
The chattering of several young ladies made the woman blush with shame. She originally wanted to expose the fact that the price of Jiang Ji's dim sum was artificially high, so that everyone would attack Jiang Miao, and force Jiang Miao to lower the price so that she could spend less money to buy dim sum, but she didn't expect it. Jiang Miao besieged her, and she made everyone angry first.
"You fools and scapegoats were all deceived by her. This candied haws on a stick isn't even worth ten cents..."
"Let's go, let's go out quickly. Is it worth it to us? It's nothing to do with you. Seeing how shabby you are, I'm afraid you can't afford to cause trouble at all!"
I have to tell the truth about these ladies. The woman was so embarrassed by everyone that she had to leave if she didn't follow her.
"Wait a minute," Jiang Miao called her. The woman's footsteps suddenly stopped, and the expression on her face turned into a proud one. No matter how loud these enemies shouted, there was no use. Jiang Miao would definitely panic if she exposed Jiang Ji's true face.
"Ms. Jiang knows she's wrong and wants to lower the price?"
"Which store are you talking about that sells candied haws for only five cents?"
"Ah?" The woman didn't expect that Jiang Miao didn't answer the question at all. She looked confused but said consciously, "It's the Zhou's shop in the city. Although the candied haws are smaller than Jiang Ji's, they are cheaper.
Half the money!”
Jiang Miao frowned slightly, Zhou's house in the city? Isn't that Zhou Shui'an's shop?
Jiang Miao originally thought that she was plagiarizing from her peers. After all, her dim sum was just a fresh variety and the method was not complicated. An experienced dim sum chef could make it with a little thought. However, to her surprise, the person selling candied haws was actually Zhou Shui'an.
She had doubts in her heart. After all the customers in the shop were gone, Jiang Miao closed the door and walked towards the city.
There was a straw target outside Zhou's shop, filled with candied haws, and a group of children gathered around to buy it. Jiang Miao's eyes turned cold. Although she didn't have a close relationship with Shen Yingxue, the character of the Shen family was still trustworthy, so she
Fearing that the Zhou family would force Shen Yingxue to hand over the prescription, Jiang Miao's heart skipped a beat when thinking of Shen Yingxue's ending in the original book.
She couldn't trust Zhou Shui'an and Zhao Yuan's character. If they were still as ruthless as in the book, then Shen Yingxue's life in the Zhou family would be in dire straits. She had to take a look at them in person before she felt reassured.
Jiang Miao returned home and told Mrs. Zhang about the incident. Mrs. Zhang was dubious about Jiang Miao's speculation.
"Although the Zhou family didn't do a good job in taking concubines, it didn't harm Yingxue." After all, they were the ones who asked Shen Yingxue to go back, and Mrs. Zhang felt that Zhou Shui'an still had feelings for her.
"Mom, do you think my eldest sister will hand over the recipe for candied haws with her temperament?"
Mrs. Zhang hesitated. She still trusted her daughter's character and would never make money using the Shen family's recipes.
"Then let's go to Zhou's house and have a look?"
"Um."
Zhou family
Zhou Ling knelt for a long time and was put into the woodshed again. After double torture, the servant fell ill immediately. She lay sickly on the bed and was in a daze, her face was red because of the high fever.
"Mom, Ling'er feels uncomfortable, her head hurts..."
Shen Yingxue held her hand helplessly, and could only wipe her body with hot water over and over again to cool her down, but in the end it was of no avail. The temperature on Zhou Ling's forehead was getting hotter and hotter.
"You bitch, why don't you hurry up and cook, why don't you just stay in the house and be lazy!"
Zhou's mother kicked the door open, and with the light behind her, she looked like a Rakshasa seeking her life.
"Mom, please let me go find a doctor for Ling'er. She won't be able to survive without taking medicine!"
"Bah, you're just a loser. How delicate can you be? This minor illness will be over if you tolerate it. If she can't bear it, it's her bad luck. Don't hang around here. Go and cook quickly. If you dare to be hungry,
When it comes to my grandson, I will throw this money-losing thing out!"
Shen Yingxue was heartbroken. As soon as Zhou Ling fell ill, she went to seek help from Zhou's mother. However, Zhou's mother was mean and refused to call a doctor. She wished something had happened to Zhou Ling. Zhou Shui'an only had Zhao Yuan in his eyes and ignored Shen Yingxue's cries. She wanted to go out and find a doctor.
He was also stopped. Zhou Ling had been suffering from fever for three days and there was really nothing he could do if he didn't see a doctor.
Shen Yingxue was desperate. She saw her daughter who was seriously ill on the bed vomiting out a mouthful of blood, staggering and fainting on the ground. Jiang Miao and Mrs. Zhang saw this scene as soon as they entered the door, and Mrs. Zhang's eyesightened violently.
