BXBX NOVEL Chapter 81 - 81 What Does It Have to Do With You?
“Actually, I don’t know if this matter counts as a problem.” Shen Dalang scratched his head, feeling very frustrated. “Yesterday, a customer came to the shop and specifically asked for mung bean ice cake, but it happened to be sold out yesterday. I could only apologize with a smile and ask them to buy it again today. In the end, that customer still refused to let it go and even smashed a lot of pastries…”
Thinking of the pastries that were ruined yesterday, Shen Dalang’s heart ached!
Those pastries were all silver wasted!
“Eldest Brother, didn’t you report it to the officials?” Shen Yao frowned, his deep eyes flickering with dark emotions.
“I wanted to report it to the officials.” The more Shen Dalang spoke, the more aggrieved he became. “After that, I asked around and found out that the guest’s identity is not ordinary. He seems to be a relative of the county magistrate.”
The people could not fight with the officials!
Therefore, after weighing the pros and cons, Shen Dalang could only swallow his grievances.
“Right now, I’m worried that our pastry shop will offend the county magistrate’s relatives. It will be even more difficult to do business in the future…” With a worried expression, Shen Dalang said with a bitter smile, “Third Brother, don’t tell Father and Mother about this. Otherwise, the two elders will worry.”
“Yes.” Shen Yao nodded and replied, “Eldest Brother, don’t worry too much. The nation has its own laws. As long as the pastries made by our Shen Ji Pastry Shop are clean, we have nothing to worry about. We’re not afraid of shadows!”
After chatting with Shen Yao, Shen Dalang’s mood gradually improved.
“By the way, Third Brother, why did you enter the city today? Did Ah Tao think of a new dish?”
“Yes.” Shen Yao smiled and nodded. “Ah Tao wants to come to the county city to buy some ingredients for snacks.”
“What snacks?” Shen Dalang asked impatiently. “Is it as delicious as roasted pork trotters?”
“Soup filled stinky tofu?” Eldest Sister-in-law Shen, who was busy in the kitchen, was very surprised when she heard Ji Zhao say this. “Ah Tao, I’ve eaten tofu before, but what is this stinky tofu?”
“It’s an especially delicious snack.” Ji Zhao smiled excitedly. “You’ll know when I make it!”
Ji Zhao had bought some high-quality tofu today, so she only needed to ferment these tofu into stinky tofu to make delicious soup filled stiny tofu!
However, haste makes waste. The process of making stinky tofu would take a long time.
“Eldest Sister-in-law, I’ll come back in two days to get the fermented stinky tofu,” Ji Zhao said with a smile after tidying up the tofu.
“Is there anything I can do to help in the next two days?” Sister-in-law Shen quickly asked, “Ah Tao, if there’s anything you need my help with, feel free to ask!”
“Then can I trouble Sister-in-law to take care of it? But there’s no need to move the stones on it.” Ji Zhao explained with a smile, “When the tofu is furry, the stinky tofu will be ready.”
“Huh? You can eat furry tofu?” Sister-in-law Shen asked suspiciously, “Ah Tao, are you kidding me?”
“Sister-in-law, you’ll definitely like it when I make the Soup Filled Stinky Tofu~” Ji Zhao smiled faintly, her eyes brimming with confidence.
“… Okay.”
“By the way, Sister-in-law, why don’t I see Sister Chunyan?” Ji Zhao asked softly.
“She went to the Qin family to deliver desserts,” Eldest Sister-in-law Shen replied with a smile. “Ah Tao, why are you looking for her?”
“Sister-in-law, how old is Sister Chunyan this year? It’s time for her to get engaged, right?” Ji Zhao asked with a concerned smile. “Speaking of which, Sister Chunyan is as good-looking as Eldest Sister-in-law, but isn’t it a little inappropriate for her to keep running around outside?”
“What’s it to you?”
