Chapter 73: Everyone Relies On Their Abilities

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

Xiaoxiao was like a little mouse about to steal something. She glanced at the door to make sure that her parents were not coming over before whispering to Second Brother. “1 added a spoonful of oil and random seasoning into the jar and even sealed the opening of the jar!”

“So it’s fine if they really just want to eat it. If they have any other thoughts that they shouldn’t have…” Then, they deserved to be unlucky.

From the first day she marinated the sour bamboo shoots, Xiaoxiao told her brothers that the sour bamboo shoots had to strictly avoid oil and exposure to air. Otherwise, it would quickly turn black and smelly.

Ning Erlang was stunned for a long time before he nodded at Xiaoxiao. “You, you, you, you little girl.” He deliberated over his words. “You’re very smart!”

It was obvious that Second Uncle was jealous of their family’s business and wanted to interfere. With that person’s shamelessness, if he did not succeed today, he would definitely not let it go in the future. His father was also a soft-hearted and unreliable person. His younger sister’s method was better. She wanted him to take it back and study it and see what they could make.

“This time, our family can finally have more than 10 days of peace.”

Xiaoxiao raised her chin proudly and even took the time to educate her second brother. “You have to learn more from me. Be smarter. Don’t show your disgust for the old residence on your face. We must make them unable to find fault with us.”

Looking at his expression, Xiaoxiao knew that Ning Erlang was unhappy. She could only guide him patiently. “Do you know how to make the person you hate unhappy?”

Ning Erlang shook his head. Xiaoxiao explained, “It’s to make sure that he can’t stand you, yet he can’t get rid of you.”

Ning Erlang felt it and was really convinced by his sister again. Hence, he smiled kindly after walking out of the kitchen.

Ning Fengnian more or less knew that his family had some dissatisfaction with the old residence. Seeing that his second son and daughter had spoken, he coughed lightly and wanted to persuade them. “Erlang, it’s rare for your second uncle to come. I thought that giving him a jar of bamboo shoots would make the old residence less concerned about us hiding the sour bamboo shoots business.”

Ning Erlang said calmly, “Father is right. We were negligent. We should have sent some to Grandpa and Grandma long ago.”

Ning Fengnian was stunned. Was this really his firecracker son?

At this moment, in the old residence, Second Uncle Ning was pestered by his wife the moment he returned. He looked at Second Aunt Ning’s increasingly rotund figure and turned around in disgust.

“It didn’t work. My big brother is very smart. He pretended not to understand the entire time.”

Seeing that Second Uncle Ning only came back with a pickle jar, Second Aunt Ning was very dissatisfied. “What? Are you going to be sent away by this lousy idea?”

Second Uncle Ning put down the jar. “What do you know?”

Before Second Aunt Ning’s expression changed and she made a scene, he said, “Call Mother over. She’s been making pickled vegetables for so many years. With this jar, she’ll know how to make it with a sniff. When we figure out the formula, do we still need their approval?”

The more he thought about it, the more he felt that his sudden idea was witty. “It’s better this way.”

If he worked with the first branch, he would have to deal with even more trouble in the future. Moreover, even if he could take most of the money they earned, he would have to give them some. If he did it himself, even if he snatched their business, it was his own ability. How much money he could earn had nothing to do with the first branch.

That’s right. His idea came up in a flash of inspiration. He wanted Old Madam Ning to figure out a formula based on the marinade in the sour bamboo shoots jar and snatch the first branch’s business.

Although Xiaoxiao did not know what they were holding back, it was roughly the same. She did not care much. Now, she was already fully immersed in the great and delicious work of dealing with meat skewers.

She was very surprised and surprised that Rong Yan’s family really had deer meat.

As a member of the gathering, Xiaoxiao contributed fresh vegetables and more than 10 secret seasonings. The bottles were quite spectacular.

Rong Yan provided the venue and four helpers that she could order around. Xiaoxiao only found out the names of his guards today—Yun Yi, Yun Er, Yun San, and Yun Wu[i. “Yi” is one in Chinese, while “Er” is two. “San” is three and “Wu” is five.”. Ning Erlang only felt that it was a mouthful, but Xiaoxiao saw through it. “There’s nothing difficult to remember. It’s just one, two, three, five.”

The guards looked resentfully at their master, who “coincidentally” looked up to admire the blue sky and white clouds. They obediently lowered their heads and cut the meat. Forget it. At least the words their master chose for them looked quite cultured. As long as they were not placed together, ordinary people would not be able to guess the origin of their names.

Shen Tianci knew that the food he brought was useless. Other than bringing a few chickens because he did not have enough chicken-flavored rice, he happily brought a large pile of pastries made by his chef.. Then, he said to Xiaoxiao proudly, “You’re an expert at making food, but you can’t make snacks, right?”
