The Strong Wife From Peasant Family Chapter 34

Li Qingfeng took a deep breath and ran over to Li Qingling's side and stood there, "Big sister, it smells so good, when will we be able to eat it?" He swallowed his saliva and stared straight ahead without blinking.

"Fragrant, fragrant …" Liu Zhirou also stopped picking the leaves, and immediately ran to Li Qingling's side and hugged Li Qingling's calf, talking the whole time, it smelled so good.

Li Qingling looked at the two greedy little cats and smiled. She told the two of them to wait at the side, they shouldn't get too close for fear of splas.h.i.+ng oil.

Li Qingfeng pulled Liu Zhirou back a step, and didn't dare to get too close. Only his eyes were staring straight at the egg cake.

Those eager eyes, I can't wait to have egg cake to eat.

Li Qingling smiled and shook her head, she took a few more vegetable leaves and sprinkled them on top of the eggs, then spread a layer of flour paste on top of them.

When one side was fine, she carefully turned the egg cake over and turned the two sides golden before placing it on the basket.

"It's too hot, let's eat after it gets a little cold." She instructed the two gluttonous cats, then turned around to fry the other egg cake.

Li Qingfeng nodded obediently as he held Liu Zhirou's hand. The two little girls were standing in front of the basket, breathing in the air towards the egg cake, hoping that it would quickly cool down so that they could taste what it tasted like.

Seeing their little movements, Li Qingling smiled again. This was her first time becoming a egg cake, and she had succeeded in doing it. She was confident that she could sell this one.

Liu Zhimo who had finished cutting all the leaves, automatically placed the leaves in the pot, added some oil and salt and stirred.

After finis.h.i.+ng all of these tasks, he stood beside Li Qingling and watched how Li Qingling operated. He had learnt it, so Li Qingling did not need to work so hard.

He read through all the steps, and felt that it wasn't that hard to do, so he let Li Qingling give it a try.

Li Qingling looked at him, nodded, and gave him the spot. She stood beside him and guided him.

With one more person to help her, she wouldn't have to be so tired.

"What's the name of the cake?" Liu Zhimo turned a face of a egg cake and looked at Li Qingling, "Have you decided on your name yet?"

"egg cake." Even if it was called egg cake, she didn't want to change its name.

Hearing that, Liu Zhimo nodded his head, the name was rather fitting, there was an egg inside, it was called egg cake, and it was easy to get it.

"Sis, eat …" Liu Zhirou stretched out her pinky to touch the egg cake, and felt that it was not as hot as before. She turned her head and pulled on Li Qingling's clothes, screaming that she wanted to eat it.

Li Qingling laughed, using the kitchen knife that was already washed, she cut the egg cake in half and picked it up. She tasted it, felt that the taste was not bad, but there were too many side dishes, if there were too many of them, it would be even better.

Seeing that Li Qingling had eaten, she swallowed her saliva and shouted that she wanted to eat it.

Li Qingling took the other half, blew on it and placed it beside Liu Zhirou's mouth, "There's still a little hot, eat slower."

Liu Zhirou opened her mouth wide, took a small bite, swallowed it, then pointed at her head, telling her it was delicious, she was even more impatient, she extended his two small hands, took the egg cake s from Li Qingling's hands and slowly started to chew.

"Come, each of you take half." Li Qingling cut the last item on the basket into half and gave it to Li Qingfeng and Liu Zhiyan respectively.

The two of them finally had something to eat, so they hurriedly took it and began to eat.

He nodded as he ate. It really was delicious.

After the three children finished eating the egg cake, Li Qingling asked them for their opinion. If she sold it, would she be able to sell it?

"Delicious." Li Qingfeng and Liu Zhiyan answered at the same time. They had only eaten half of it and still wanted to eat more.

"I feel that if I sell it, I'll definitely be able to sell it. It's both fragrant and delicious." Liu Zhiyan said again.

He admired Li Qingling even more for being able to make such a delicious egg cake.

Hearing that, Li Qingling became even more confident.

"Let me fry it! Taste the egg cake, and after you finish tasting it, give me your opinion. " Li Qingling took out the egg cake s that she already had and put them in the basket for Liu Zhimo to taste.

Liu Zhimo acknowledged his presence, used his chopsticks to pick up a egg cake, blew gently on it, opened his mouth to take a bite, and after eating one mouthful, he impatiently took a second bite.

After he finished eating a egg cake, he nodded, "Not bad, how much do you intend to sell it for?" There were no new egg cake stalls like this on North Street. Generally speaking, their stalls would only be open like this, not like this one.

This kind of egg cake should be easy to sell.

The first was novelty, the second was really tasty. There was a bit of crispy skin, a bit of tender and smooth egg, and also some vegetable leaves. People wouldn't get tired of eating it.

"I'm going to sell them for five cents each." Li Qingling replied without even raising her head.

When she said that, Li Qingfeng and Liu Zhiyan took a deep breath. So expensive? One had to know, a big bowl of wontons was only worth two coins, while meat buns were worth two coins. Wouldn't the egg cake that they sold for fifty cents be too expensive?

It's so expensive, what if no one buys it?

"Do you think it's expensive too?" Li Qingling turned her head to look at Liu Zhimo, and asked him with a smile, "Our eggs, flour, vegetables, all need money.

As long as the food was good, she wouldn't have to worry about not being able to sell.

At first, Liu Zhimo thought that money was expensive, but after listening to her a.n.a.lysis, he felt that money was not much, "Then this egg cake will be tentatively priced at fifty cents each. If it's not that easy to sell, then I will lower the price a bit, what do you think?"

He could try it out first. Who knows, maybe a egg cake would sell for fifty cents?

"Sure!" Li Qingling nodded her head, "I just don't know how to use these egg cake to serve customers."

The oil-proof paper was too expensive for her to buy, and she couldn't let the guests eat with their hands.

This was really a bit difficult for her.

"The two of you, help me think about what you should use to store these egg cake for your customers." Li Qingling exhaled lightly and turned to look at Li Qingfeng and Liu Zhiyan. He wanted them to think of a solution as well, maybe the two of them could come up with a solution.

Li Qingfeng and Liu Zhiyan nodded in agreement, and the two buried their heads, and started to think.

This was a small business deal for their family, so of course they had to contribute.

"I wonder if we can weave them into small basket s with reeds?" When Liu Zhimo thought of reeds, he immediately thought of this idea.

The small basket?

Li Qingling's eyes lit up as she nodded and asked Liu Zhimo if he knew how to weave small basket s. She would not do such a thing.

"Yes, I'll go and chop some reeds now." Liu Zhimo laughed, "The two of you come as well." He also brought Li Qingfeng and Liu Zhiyan with him.

The three of them ran over to cut some reeds, and Liu Zhimo impatiently weaved them. Not long after, a small, exquisite small basket appeared.

Li Qingling gave him a big thumbs up. She didn't think that he would make such a small thing up.

She picked up a egg cake and carefully placed it inside the small basket. Unexpectedly, it was just right for her.

Such a small basket to hold a egg cake, it looked rather elegant.

She thought it might attract young girls.

"Great, that's it. We'll set up the stall tomorrow." Li Qingling waved her hand, his face was full of smiles, and it finally solved her worries, "Zhi Moge, how about you teach me how to weave small basket s! "We'll weave some for today and bring them over tomorrow."

One person knitting is too slow, two more people can be faster.

"I want to learn too." Liu Zhiyan said.

Li Qingfeng also nodded, saying that he wanted to learn too.

Both of them wanted to help the family a little more, so that they wouldn't have to work too hard.

Good, you guys learn too. It just so happens that the two of you can create small basket s at home, Zhi Moge and I will set up stalls and work together.

Li Qingling felt that this idea was not bad. The two little kids could not only take care of their two little sisters at home, they could also weave small basket s and kill two birds with one stone.

"Alright …" The two of them nodded. It was good that they were able to help their older brother and sister.

Liu Zhimo also thought that this idea was not bad. He waved his hands towards the two of them, asking them to go over and see how he made the small basket.

The two of them were both smart kids, after seeing it twice, and doing it twice more, that would be enough.

"I really can't handle this thing." Li Qingling made up a basket many times, the basket that she could not even look at it. She sighed, she really was not suitable to do this kind of work.

Liu Zhimo pursed his lips and laughed, telling her not to make it up and just leave it to his two brothers, she can fry the egg cake.

"That's right, sister, just leave it to us!" Li Qingfeng comforted her. He did not expect that his almighty sister would not know how to make small basket s. It was truly surprising.

Li Qingling nodded and sat by the side. Seeing that they made it up, she did not make a move.

What she could not do, she would not force herself to do. She had to save herself the worry.

The three of them managed to weave nearly a hundred small basket in a single day. Li Qingling was completely dumbfounded, and her speed was just too fast.

Before the sky brightened, Li Qingling had already woken up. She put on her clothes and went to Liu Zhimo's home.

When she went to Liu Zhimo's house, she saw light in his kitchen and immediately knew that Liu Zhimo had woken up.

She called out softly, and a moment later, the courtyard door opened.

"He's here..."

"Mm. You're up so early, why don't you sleep a little more?" Li Qingling walked in and asked Liu Zhimo.

Liu Zhimo laughed, "I woke up because I couldn't sleep." Actually, he wanted to do more work.

Li Qingling acknowledged her presence and went into the kitchen. She had already made some semi-finished products, and after bringing them to the town, they would continue to be made into finished products. This would save him a lot of time.
