Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
“And it’s so much cheaper than the ones at the departnt store!” Qiao i said.
Xia Fang looked at the ingredients in the kitchen and did so calculations. One catty of eggs was only about one dollar and the flour was only a few cents. After adding the sugar, oil and other ingredients, the total cost was probably around three dollars.
The cost of making so many cakes was at most five dollars, but the shop sold the cakes at such a high price. No wonder Qiao i stopped her from buying the cakes.
Qiao i thought that if she opened a cake shop in the capital, it should be much more profitable than going back to the countryside to grow bean sprouts. Growing bean sprouts was a tiring and ti-consuming business, and there would be tis when the harvest was not good. It was different making cakes. The raw materials could all be bought off the shelves, and she just had to make them.
Moreover, it was more profitable than selling bean sprouts.
Qiao i started thinking about the cost of opening a shop in the capital.
Xia Fang suddenly looked at Qiao i and asked, “i i, what do you plan to do after this?”
“Huh? After this?” Qiao i looked at Xia Fang in confusion.
“Yes, aning in the future. I suppose you will beco a military spouse,” Xia Fang said.
“Definitely. Besides, Xia Zhe also wants to beco a military spouse and stay with him in the army,” Qiao i said excitedly.
However, Xia Fang was filled with worry. She beca a little unhappy to hear Qiao i say so firmly that she wanted to beco a military spouse.
Qiao i did not understand why Aunt looked so ill at ease when she talked about being a military spouse.
“i i, I’ve also been a military spouse for a period of ti before. It’s a very tough thing to do. You may be in the mountains or by the sea, or even on an island. Do you want to follow him even though you have to take care of a child as well?” Xia Fang said worriedly.
......
It was then that Qiao i understood Xia Fang’s worry and she said with a smile, “I’m not afraid of hardship. Our village is also in the mountains. To go to town, we have to walk a distance of 15 kiloters on the mountain roads, and further if we go to the county city. Moreover, the natural environnt there is rough. When we go out in winter, the cold can freeze off our ears!”
“Well, it… it’s not as tough as that…” Xia Fang looked at Qiao i with so heartache.
She did not expect Qiao i to have gone through such a tough life when she was young. These were things that she could not imagine. Even when she followed Xiang Jin as a military spouse, her life was not as tough as what Qiao described .
Xia Fang suddenly felt that there was nothing bad about having a daughter-in-law from the countryside. Girls in the city did not suffer much from a young age. What city girls saw as hardships were not hardships in the eyes of village girls. The village girls would just see that as part of life and deal with it.
Moreover, Qiao i was sensible and had a good heart and a sense of propriety. She had been taught well by Qiao Qiang and did not behave like an uneducated boor at all.
It turned out that Xia Fang had also thought that only a young lady from a big family in the capital was worthy of her Xia Zhe. Now, it seed that Xia Zhe was the lucky one to be able to find a wife like Qiao i.
Qiao i silently packed the rest of the cakes into boxes and put them into her backpack. “Aunt, let’s go and distribute the cakes to the others. There’s so many that we won’t be able to finish them. Let’s share with everyone!”
Xia Fang looked at Qiao i, feeling gratified that the girl knew the ways of the world as well.
She had heard from her neighbors about what happened to Qiao i in the courtyard yesterday. The neighbors said that Qiao i was smart enough to see through the sches of Qian’e and her mother, and managed to protect Xia Zhe’s reputation.
This young lady was really smart. Their Xia Zhe was really lucky.
Xia Fang brought Qiao i to visit every household in the compound to express her gratitude. She also introduced Qiao i as her niece-in-law to everyone, confirming Qiao i’s status in her family.
Qiao i’s baking skills received praise from everyone. A few people even expressed interest to learn from her.
Qiao i’s smile froze on her face. It was starting to look like she would have no ti to rest during this period of ti, given the number of won who told her that they wanted to learn how to bake cakes.
Xia Fang saw the awkwardness on Qiao i’s face and rejected everyone upfront. “Since our i i is pregnant, she can’t be too tired. She needs to rest well.”
Everyone understood what Xia Fang ant. Furthermore, if anything really happened to the baby, they would not be able to bear the consequences as well.
They all knew the kind of person Xia Fang was. She may look like a friendly person, but in reality, if soone really provoked her, even an immortal from the heavens could not save the person.
She could not even be bothered to respect the hospital director, let alone a few neighbors. They all thought that it would be better not to agitate her.
Everyone gave up on the idea of going to Xia Fang’s house to pick up so culinary skills.
