Chapter 232 - 232 It Was Magical
232 It Was Magical
Feng Sisi pa.s.sed the peeled sweet potato to her husband and said, “You eat it.”
Liu Chengwen shook his head. “No, you eat it.”
The couple could not bear to eat the sweet potato. Whenever there was delicious food at home, Liu Chengwen could not bear to eat it alone. Feng Sisi was similar, so the two ate together.
In the end, the couple ate the sweet potato together.
“It’s sweet and delicious!” Feng Sisi enjoyed the potato but only had a small bite. She let her husband take a bigger bite instead.
Mrs. Liu brought in another sweet potato and saw the couple feeling sorry for each other. She felt rather upset and said, “Little Su said each of you can have one. You two can have more since we have many.”
Feng Sisi said, “You should have some too, Mother-in-law.”
“I already had one, so you two can have more,” Mrs. Liu replied.
Feng Sisi quickly gave the second sweet potato to her husband and returned to the stove to listen to Su Binglan talk about how to make chicken blood noodles.
After boiling the water, Su Binglan said, “Add boiling water like this while stirring. It will prevent the sweet potato mash from turning into a paste. Afterward, add the other half of the sweet potato mash and stir it. You must stir them vigorously to make a soft dough.”
She observed the family follow her instructions. When the right time arrived, she said, “Remove a small piece of the mash and let it hang. It’s ready if it can form noodle threads. Now, boil another pot of water.”
Feng Sisi quickly started a fire while Mrs. Liu said, “Rest, Sisi. I’ll start the fire.”
“But I’m not tired, Mother-in-law. You and Father-in-law haven’t slept all night, so it’s best if you two rest while I start the fire.”
Liu Yinyin interjected, “I’ll do it, Sister-in-law. Binglan can continue teaching you how to make the noodles.”
Only after hearing this did Feng Sisi let Liu Yinyin start the fire.
Su Binglan looked at the water in the pot and said, “Control the heat so you don’t overboil the water.”
Mr. and Mrs. Liu and Feng Sisi carefully listened while Su Binglan continued making a slotted spoon. After forming the noodles with the potato mash, the family would put them into the pot.
After removing the noodles, the family would cool them with cold water to complete the noodle-making process. Afterward, Su Binglan used the chicken blood to make the soup for the chicken blood noodle dish.
It was already noon when she put some seasoning in the chicken blood noodle dish. She said, “Try some, everyone.”
The whole family was stunned when they tried the dish.
“It’s delicious!”
“It looks like a noodle dish, but more unique. It’s so smooth and fragrant.”
Feng Sisi’s eyes lit up. “It honestly is!”
Liu Yinyin took care of her two sons while the family ate. The two children kept saying how delicious the dish was.
Su Wenzhe said, “Sister, isn’t this the duck blood vermicelli you talked about last time? It’s indeed delicious. It has a different taste than the haggis soup.”
Su Binglan said, “There are many more delicacies, so they vary from each other.”
Everyone knew the duck blood vermicelli would be popular in town. However, they did not have any sweet potatoes.
Su Binglan said, “Mr. and Mrs. Liu, I have plenty of sweet potatoes. The yield of sweet potatoes is high and relatively cheap. I’ll tell Big Brother to send some over in the afternoon.
“You can also use them as seeds to grow more for next year. Then you can use them to make more duck blood vermicelli. As for duck blood, you can buy it from my uncle. These things are cheap too.”
Su Binglan thought of teaching someone suitable about the duck blood vermicelli, but she knew now it was better to teach it to Liu Yinyin’s family.
Since the family could start a business and have better lives, Liu Yinyin would no longer have to worry. Besides, Liu Yinyin’s family were the ones who helped the Su family when they were struggling.
It was also because of their rice that the Su family could eat that fill. These were favors that Su Binglan remembered.
Everyone was shocked when she mentioned that the sweet potatoes only cost two coins a pound. “T-That’s so cheap!”
The family thought the sweet potatoes would be expensive because they were good. Since they were cheap, making duck blood vermicelli would not cost them much.
“Little Su, the sweet potatoes are too cheap.” Feng Sisi found it hard to believe that such a delicious thing was that cheap.
Mrs. Liu said, “Little Su, these are good stuff, so shouldn’t they be more expensive? We know you’re thinking of helping us, and we can’t thank you enough.”
Su Binglan explained, “Mrs. Liu, anyone can produce sweet potatoes in high quant.i.ties, so my prices are reasonable. Still, there are fewer now, so I can sell them for five coins a pound.
“However, I have a lot of sweet potatoes here, so I don’t need that many. You guys are helping me by taking them off my hands, so I’ll only charge you two coins a pound.”
After all, the sweet potatoes overgrew in Su Binglan’s pocket dimension, so she did not have to worry about running out. Moreover, she had a stockpile of them in her warehouse.
Everyone would plant sweet potatoes in the future, and the yield would be high, so the price would be lower. Still, Su Binglan’s prices for the sweet potatoes were reasonable.
Mr. and Mrs. Liu listened to Su Binglan under her insistence.
Su Binglan went home after lunch while Su Wenzhe and Su Wenxiu went to town. Since the brothers did not open the shop in the morning, the customers would get worried.
Meanwhile, Liu Yinyin stayed with her two children at her parents’ house. She planned to help her parents with some things in the afternoon and take care of her big brother before going home at night.
When Su Binglan exited the Liu family’s home, the villagers could not help but glance at her.
Since it had just rained, the villagers could not work in the fields. Instead, they sat on stools and chatted on the street after eating. They gathered in twos and threes, gossiping about the Liu family. No one could hide anything from the villagers as they would find out sooner or later.
“I thought the Su family was struggling in the past. Now, it seems the Liu family was right to marry their daughter off to a member of the Su family.”
“Yeah, didn’t you see Liu Yinyin’s in-laws coming here on horses? Two horses at that.”
“Liu Yinyin’s sister-in-law also has medical knowledge.”
“That’s right. The Liu family’s son almost died. They even asked the village official for help when Chengwen’s face turned purple. Still, he only recovered once Yinyin’s sister-in-law arrived.”
“It’s truly amazing.”
…
The villagers became increasingly amazed as they chatted. Su Binglan naturally noticed their expressions as she rode home on her horse. Still, she had grown accustomed to it.
The villagers knew something bizarre was happening, so they would all curiously look.
When Su Binglan reached home, she told her mother and the others what had happened. Knowing that Liu Chengwen was okay, Shen Qiuhua and the others heaved a sigh of relief.
Shen Qiuhua thought of something and said, “By the way, the woman Fengchen brought home has regained consciousness.”
