Translator: 549690339

“Ta ta ta.”

A series of hurried footsteps were heard, and just as the yellow-faced woman put down the needle and looked up, Tao Ran came in with an enamel jar.

As if he was holding a precious treasure, Tao Ran carefully placed the jar on the cabinet beside the bed before he finally heaved a sigh of relief.

Just now, she had been holding it in for fear that she would feel heartache if she spilled it out. This was a dessert made by Yuan Zhou, the kind that had a price but no supply. Even if she wanted to eat it, she had to wait. Therefore, she would definitely cherish it very much.

“Mom, why are you embroidering again? didn’t you promise me to rest more?” she asked. In the blink of an eye, Tao Ran saw an embroidered picture that the woman had placed at the side. Because it was very long, he couldn’t see what was embroidered with just a glance.

The yellow-faced woman, who was Tao Ran’s mother, looked a little embarra.s.sed. She was too anxious and happy just now and forgot to hide the thing. However, she still held up the dignity of a mother and said,””Actually, it didn’t take long. I started when you went out. It’s just a short while. It’s not a big deal.”

Licking her dry lips, Tao Ran’s mother continued,””I’ve been embroidering for more than a year and I’m almost done. I want to finish it as soon as possible and send it to boss Yuan. I originally planned to give it to boss Yuan as an engagement gift, but I didn’t expect that I still haven’t finished the embroidery due to my poor health. ”

Tao Ran’s mother’s tone became a little dejected as she spoke. Actually, if it wasn’t for her weak body, she wouldn’t be able to do any work, not even the embroidery that she was best at, and her family wouldn’t be in such a dire situation. After all, her skills were really exquisite.

Tao Ran’s mother was the inheritor of the Li sect of Shu embroidery. Unfortunately, in her generation, her skills were really good, even surpa.s.sing her mother, who was also her master. However, ever since she gave birth to Tao Ran, her physical condition had deteriorated year by year. Not to mention supporting her in teaching disciples, even her own embroidery was a problem. Otherwise, she wouldn’t have held on to Baoshan and not be able to support the mother and daughter. She could only rely on Tao Ran to make a living at a young age.

“How can you blame mom for that? I’m just too stupid and didn’t inherit any of your talents. Otherwise, mom wouldn’t have to do it herself.” Tao Ran said with a regretful look.

When Tao Ran was still young, there was a period of time when Tao Ran’s mother’s body was still fine, so she taught Tao Ran the basics. Unfortunately, she didn’t learn anything even after she tied her fingers into carrots. Being able to simply embroider flowers and plants and distinguish them was the result of years of practice.

Tao Ran really didn’t have any talent in embroidery. Therefore, she felt a little helpless when she saw her mother working so hard. However, she had to give this to Yuan Zhou. Therefore, she could only limit her mother’s embroidery time every day. As a result, Tao Ran’s mother could only embroider when she was in better health. Naturally, the time was dragged on longer. It had been more than a year and it was obvious that she hadn’t finished.

Tao Ran and her mother were very grateful to Yuan Zhou. Although the two of them were always behind when it came to the outside world’s information, it didn’t prevent them from knowing Yuan Zhou’s reputation. Even if it was just an ordinary bowl of sweet soup, it was impossible to buy it for only 2 yuan.

However, as they had already bought the Tremella worth 1 RMB and the words “special price” were indeed written on the menu, Tao Ran and his mother decided to try their luck and buy it whenever there was an event. Yuan Zhou’s craftsmans.h.i.+p was really good and the two of them had been longing for it ever since they ate it.

It was really impossible for her family to spend a few hundred Yuan on a meal. It was already a very happy thing to be lucky enough to buy some desserts when there was a discount every once in a while.

Both Tao Ran and his mother felt that Yuan Zhou seemed to have the intention to take care of him, but they really didn’t have any evidence. It was also possible that he was just lucky. However, that didn’t prevent them from being grateful to Yuan Zhou.

However, they didn’t have anything on them, so they couldn’t thank him. In the end, they could only thank him with their own skills. This was the only valuable thing they had, but because of their health, they hadn’t prepared this gift.

In fact, Tao Ran’s mother wasn’t seriously ill. She just couldn’t tire herself out or worry about anything. She could only lie in bed for more than half a year to recuperate.

There was a saying that no filial son could be found in a sick bed for a long time, but Tao Ran still took care of her mother for ten years without a single complaint. As she grew older, she had more opportunities to choose a job, and naturally, her life became more and more relaxed. The only regret was that she had taken on the heavy burden of life since she was young and wasn’t the particularly smart type, so she didn’t continue studying after she didn’t get into junior high school.

Tao Ran was still pa.s.sionate about life because she had received a lot of kindness along the way. Although life was full of hards.h.i.+ps, she had learned to face them with a smile.

“Don’t worry. Mom can still embroider. I will finish it in two or three days. By then, I will have to trouble little ran to deliver it to boss Yuan. It’s an arduous task to make boss Yuan accept this gift. I believe little ran can definitely do it. ”

Tao Ran’s mother ‘s’ my daughter can definitely do it ‘look gave Tao Ran a lot of confidence. Every line has its own master. Although she wasn’t good at embroidery, the China Knot she made was still very popular.

“Then mom, let’s try the milk peach gum prepared by boss Yuan. I’ve been craving for it for a long time.” Tao Ran said with a smile.

“Alright,” he said. Tao Ran’s mother nodded.

Tao Ran gently opened the lid of the enamel jar that he had placed on the table earlier, revealing the contents inside. The milky white soup looked very thick-it was milk.

As the lid was lifted, the rich Milky fragrance instantly filled the air, dispelling the lingering medicinal smell in the room, leaving only the rich Milky fragrance mixed with some sweet fragrance.

The red dates were floating in the jar, and there were small orange-red dots. They were wolfberry that had become a little chubby after soaking. Together with the peach gum that was also not small in size, they looked very appetizing, not to mention the rich fragrance.

“Every time I see it, I feel it’s very magical. How come boss Yuan’s dishes look so good, smell so good and also so delicious?” Tao Ran’s mother took a deep breath.

There was even a faint blush on her sallow face. Obviously, she really liked the peach Milk gelatin prepared by Yuan Zhou.

In fact, Tao Ran would occasionally save up some money to buy some peach gum and make milk for his mother, but it just didn’t feel right. He didn’t know how to describe it, but he just felt that there was nothing right.

“It must be because boss Yuan’s craftsmans.h.i.+p is good.” Tao Ran said.

As he spoke, he picked up a white porcelain spoon that he had prepared and brought a big spoonful to his mother’s mouth. After she swallowed it in one gulp, her originally pale lips were stained with some white milk, and she looked much more energetic.

It was sweet, soft, and mellow. No matter when it entered her mouth, Tao Ran’s mother felt her heart calm down immediately, as if the troubles in the outside world were nothing. She also felt like she had the courage to face everything that had happened before.

A sweet taste exploded on the tip of her tongue, replacing the lingering taste of medicine. It was as if it was telling taoran’s mother that life wasn’t just bitter, but also sweet.
