Chapter 358: Chapter 345 Refusal to Pair Up (Third

Update)

Just like leaving a piece of dough before steaming buns each time, it could serve as a yeast starter for the next dough fermentation—thus these things could be passed on one after another, sparing the trouble of having to add ingredients every time.

However, if it’s done this way, the tofu factory could use Physalis as a starter, the tofu could use old brine, the sprouted beans could use the water from previously sprouted beans, and Tofu skin could use the soy milk left over after boiling. Salted duck eggs and century eggs could use the mixed slurry each time.

As for this sweet potato glass noodles, the layer of clear water on top during the starch purification process in the production could act as a starch-making starter the next time.

The only thing that probably can’t utilize the principle of fermentation up to now is the formula powder for the mosquito repellent herbal medicine pack.

But for this formula powder, Zhuang Qingning always hands it to Yonghe to mix in the other herbs. This is thought to be Zhuang Qingning’s exclusive secret recipe for making such a useful mosquito repellent herbal pack, unwilling to tell anyone. Thus, no one bothered to ask her about the powder.

One could say, this so-called old yeast could indeed solve the very important problem she was facing now.

Not bad at all.

This time, the assistant system provided something extremely useful.

[The assistant system did not like what the host was implying; the host believes that what the system provides each time is not good?]

Cough cough.

Don’t quibble.

But the assistant should constantly improve in the future, according to the actual situation, it should provide more help for the host to thrive and prosper.

PS: She did not want to accept such tasks any more; it’s far too complicated.

[The system will do its best.]

[But I should remind the host that if she doesn’t want to take on very difficult tasks and want to prosper quickly, she could adopt a different way by allowing the ‘Marriage Stone’ to grow quickly and obtain a lot of fortune. This could help the host to prosper faster.]

Yes, that’s an option.

Give me your hardest task, and let me discover whether there are tasks I, the host, can’t complete!

Plans to set me up with anyone are resolutely rejected!

[•••]

[The system doesn’t know whether it should be happy that it met a host with such an opinion.]

The assistant believed that it had tried its best to fake a smile.

In the early morning, Wencheng quickly had his breakfast and, after tidying up, he prepared to go to Yonghe’s house.

“You didn’t eat much for breakfast today, do you have a poor appetite?” Mrs. Wang stopped Wencheng, “What do you want for lunch? I’ll ask your sister-in-law to cook it for you.”

“Do you want steamed white rice, or do you prefer noodles or dumplings?”

“Whatever is fine.” Wencheng answered indifferently.

He’s not fussy about food, as long as he’s full, he’s happy. He also feels that Mrs. Wang favours him excessively, and now his sister-in-law complains quite a lot. He didn’t want to ruin his relationship with his older brother over this, so he decided to care even less about these matters.

“How can anything be okay? You work so hard every day, without eating well, how will you have the strength to work?” Mrs. Wang lowered her voice and said, “If you don’t want your sister-in-law to see it, I can make a separate bowl for you. I know you love red braised pork, I’ll get some pork belly in a while.”

“Mother…” Wencheng was a little anxious when he heard this, “We all eat together at home, it can’t be the case that I’m the only one who gets special meals. We all work and get tired. If mother wants to stew red braised pork, just do it, but it should be shared with everyone.”

“There are younger nephews and nieces in the family. It’s not right for me, as their uncle, to sneak and eat behind their backs. Mother, you should try to treat everyone equally.”

No matter what, at least it seems more impartial.

“When has this been fair? In every family, isn’t the younger one always favored?” Mrs. Wang pouted. But seeing Wencheng insisted, she didn’t persist and simply said, “Okay, I’ll listen to you. I’ll stew some red braised pork at noon. I’ll add some mung beans and potatoes. We can have a big pot of stew and everyone can scoop up a bowl, so we can all have a few pieces of meat.”

“Alright, Mother. I’ll listen to you.” When Wencheng saw that Mrs. Wang did not persist, he smiled.

“Since you’re willing to listen to me, why not listen to another thing?” Mrs. Wang asked.

Another thing?

Wencheng was taken aback, “What is it, Mother?”

“What else could it be? It’s about the girl, Liu Qiaoer, from Datongshu Village that I mentioned a few days ago. I’ve seen her and she looks good, she’s tall and looks healthy. I heard she’s hardworking, virtuous, and she does great embroidery. Around half of the embroidered handkerchiefs sold in the town’s cloth shop are made by her!”

Mrs. Wang smiled and continued, “I’ve also heard that Liu Qiaoer is the youngest in her family, both her older brother and sister are married. Her father is a carpenter and earns decent money. Their family is not poor. Anyway, I think you two are a perfect match.”

“When you’re free, why not take a look at her stealthily? If you like her, I’ll arrange the marriage for you.”

“You’re already fifteen. The year after this, you’ll be sixteen. If you take a look at her this year and prepare, when you get married, you’ll be seventeen. It’s the right time…”

“Mother, didn’t I tell you? I’m too busy to manage this right now. Let’s talk about it later.”

Wencheng vaguely tried to put off this matter.

“Oh dear, no matter how busy you are, you can’t neglect this matter of settling down, can you? I don’t believe you don’t even have a half day free!”

Mrs. Wang looked unhappy. She held Wencheng’s sleeve and didn’t let him leave, “If you are so busy, then I must speak to Little Sister Ning. She can’t put all the work on you. It makes you so tired that you don’t have time for anything else.”

“Mother…”

Wencheng felt more and more upset. “Why would you talk to Little Sister Ning about this?”

“I’m still young. Even if I wait for a couple more years, it won’t be late. Moreover, I want to save some money to open a medical clinic. If I get married, I would inevitably be distracted. My lifelong dream is to open a clinic—surely, Mother, you don’t want to delay me?”

“Alright, I see that you’re not without time, and you don’t think you’re too young. You’re just coming up with all kinds of excuses to avoid this matter. You tell me, arc you still holding on to Little Sister Ning, waiting for her to grow up a little more so you can marry her?”

Unexpectedly, the tacit understanding was addressed by Mrs. Wang, and Wencheng’s face turned as red as an apple..
