Chapter 734: 724. There is perilla!_1
Zhang Yanping’s despair was beyond anyone’s understanding.
Even Song Tan thought to herself, “Isn’t that right? He works hard and eats a lot because his body demands more.”
With increased demands, the scattered Spiritual Energy in these ingredients, and the little bit every morning and evening, could sowhat take effect.
But at that mont, she could only look at Zhang Yanping with difficulty and then sighed, “Brother Yanping, my mom does make sense. Your health is what’s most important.”
“Picking a few winter lons is no trouble; why don’t you go pick them…”
Was this about picking winter lons? This was clearly about endless toil! He was about to fall into the damn cycle of labor!
Yanping, Yanping, every morning when you wake up.
Yanping, Yanping, there’s work waiting for you.
After picking the lons, you start the fire; once the fire’s lit, you rush to wash the vegetables…
Zhang Yanping went out numbly, snatching away Qiaoqiao’s colorful Daduo.
Qiaoqiao: ???
“Brother Yanping, I’ll co with you! Don’t ride too fast! Daduo is still a baby—”
…
But today, aside from Zhang Yanping, everyone else was very happy.
Brother Xiaozhang arrived with his vehicle rumbling and couldn’t stop smiling.
How was it? Ever since having Song Tan as a custor, he wished to add at to his als thrice a day!
His small town delivery station was buzzing even more than so city ones.
And today, he had prepared a bunch of small express boxes in advance!
Although he didn’t know how long it would take to pack 10,000 orders, the state of having work every day was truly marvelous.
Incidentally, he also got a piece of winter lon candy.
Wu Lan now increasingly favored this diligent young man and said with a smile, “Xiaozhang, this winter lon candy isn’t cloying. I’ve tried it and liked it quite a bit. Take so ho for your wife to try.”
“Pregnant won are prone to heatiness, and this cools down the heat without being too cooling, so it’s okay to have so. But don’t eat too much, as it might raise blood sugar…”
Brother Xiaozhang nodded repeatedly—this was advice from those who’ve been there!
“If she finds it too sweet and can’t get used to it, you can cook so silver ear mushroom soup with it; that’s just as beneficial.”
Actually, even without Wu Lan saying so much, Brother Xiaozhang was already over the moon. Now that she described it as suitable for pregnant won, he hesitated as he opened the packet—
Ah, should he have a piece first himself?
…
At that mont, Master Qian and Wang Xiaoshun sat opposite each other, each holding a cup of freshly brewed green tea, feeling utterly satisfied.
The tin shed they were in had just been set up on the construction site, and the air conditioning was newly installed too, so they finally didn’t have to work outside covered in dust and sweltering heat.
Although because the windows were installed too low, and they had to ventilate smoke, and it was hotter from the sun’s rays than other places, it was still much better than before!
At the very least, once the air conditioning was running, those working wouldn’t suffer.
The hot tea was steaming, and Master Qian took a deep breath, holding back from taking a sip, and just sighed,
“Xiaoshun, the place I found for your senior brother is not bad, right?”
Wang Xiaoshun, whose soul was already hooked by the fragrance of the green tea, couldn’t take his eyes off the cup and couldn’t help feeling envious, “If I weren’t retired, I’d want to co here too.”
Of course, not right now.
They ate more here, but the pay was less, and he had a family to feed and couldn’t leave his high-paying job.
Master Qian glanced at him and thought to himself, if I weren’t the head chef in the restaurant, I’d want to stay here right now!
After all, at his age, the amount of money is less important.
However, it’s no wonder that soone as stubborn as Old Song can stay here so steadily, busying himself every day, it’s indeed worth it.
Boss Xiaosong is quite generous.
When he first arrived, besides making sauces for the workers, he didn’t do much else, yet Boss Xiaosong just gave him a kilo of tea leaves…
Tsk tsk tsk. Ten thousand! The master and apprentice are up to twenty thousand now!
Before coming here, Old Song even said their host was stingy, but how is this stingy? It’s all nonsense!
The air conditioning humd quietly, and the workers outside had already started to finish up in twos and threes.
Master Qian had prepared plently of cooling tea and mung bean soup, not missing a single one, watching everyone happily gulping it down, he then glanced at the ingredients in the refrigerator next to him, pondering—
Having taken such good stuff, just honestly cooking for the workers, isn’t it a bit inappropriate?
Or maybe…
He looked at Wang Xiaoshun, “When you’re free, walk around in these mountains, see what else there is that’s edible or useful, we should show off our skills a bit more.”
“This way, when your senior brother cos, it would also prevent any awkwardness.”
Wang Xiaoshun was thinking the sa.
To be honest, although the pay isn’t high, they were quite embarrassed to eat two or three bowls each at Song Tan’s place.
After all, Wang Xiaoshun had witnessed firsthand how their winter lon candy was sold. What they were eating were all expensive ingredients!
Thinking it over, he said, “Master, I walked by the mountain the other day and saw so perilla growing well in an abandoned field, should we pick so and make perilla sauce?”
Making als for the workers, they inevitably had to use these things. Eating waterlon sauce all the ti might beco too monotonous.
Upon hearing this, Master Qian imdiately perked up, “Why didn’t you say so sooner?! The perilla this ti of year is tender! Where is it?”
At the sa ti, he couldn’t help regretting, “You see, our store always goes to the countryside looking for these wild greens; why could we never find such good flavor?”
Wang Xiaoshun thought for a mont, “Look at the professor who’s always deeply involved in research and guidance; we don’t have that kind of connections. But this perilla should not belong to Song Tan’s land. Its taste might only be slightly better than average… It’s just right for eating on the mountain.”
Master Qian nodded, “Go, quickly tell Boss Xiaosong, let’s take the initiative to show off our effort.”
…
The hardworking Zhang Yanping was squatting by the pool, scrubbing winter lons.
Starting today, he had to continue his previous work, lugging heavy winter lons around, huffing and puffing.
Honestly, he’d rather practice Taiji while stirring beans.
At this mont, squatting there, the usually fierce expression on his face beca even more ferocious.
Fortunately, cleaning winter lons wasn’t difficult. So, when he finally got them all into the kitchen, Qiaoqiao stretched herself as if nothing had happened, but he, supporting his waist, stood up with difficulty, feeling as if he’d been beaten up.
And just then, Wang Xiaoshun ca down the mountain excitedly:
“Boss Xiaosong, I saw a patch of perilla in soone’s abandoned field before; do you think we should talk to them about picking it and making so perilla sauce?”
Zhang Yanping imdiately beca anxious.
“Perilla sauce?”
Song Tan was surprised, “I haven’t tried it. Is it tasty?”
Wang Xiaoshun was quite confident, “As long as you can get used to the taste of perilla, the sauce is quite tasty. It goes well with stead buns or noodles!”
Song Tan thought for a mont, then decisively answered, “I can eat it, I can! Isn’t perilla often used to wrap barbecued at? I can eat that.”
In their area, not many people eat perilla and it’s mostly unfamiliar. Wang Xiaoshun, having seen regional taste preferences, calmly nodded his head:
“Okay, then it can be done.”
