“Alright!” Lin Xiaoyue responded.
Then, she seemed to have remembered something.
She took out some silver pieces from her pocket and put them into the money box.
Then, she took the money box and gave it to Li Xiao.
“You can pay Uncle Jiang and Uncle Sun later, but you can’t buy the materials on credit.
I’m afraid the money I gave you before is not enough, take these.”
Li Xiao looked at the silver and a large number of copper coins in the box, but he didn’t take it.
…..
“This is enough. You can keep the change and just give me the silver,” Li Shao said.
Lin Xiaoyue glanced at Li Xiao, “sure!”
Then, she gave the silver to Li Xiao.
Heh, and he didn’t want the copper coins? She had so many!
Speaking of which, it was time to make a trip to the bank and exchange the copper coins for silver.
If she didn’t have her interspatial ring, she wouldn’t have been able to store so much change.
Li Xiao took the money and told Lin Xiaoyue to take care before leaving.
Only then did Lin Xiaoyue continue selling with Aunt w.a.n.g.
By the time the two of them finished selling the last bowl of cold cakes it was already close to 11 o’clock.
There were not many people in the market at this time.
Lin Xiaoyue asked Aunt w.a.n.g to stay there while she went to buy the ingredients.
They could pack up and go home soon.
On the way back, the sun was already high up in the sky. Lin Xiaoyue had to ride the cart, so she could only block the sun with a fan on one hand.
“It’s too hot today. If I had known earlier, I would have kept two bowls of cold cakes for ourselves,” Lin Xiaoyue handed a water bottle to Aunt w.a.n.g. She took the other and drank it.
At this time, Aunt w.a.n.g’s face was also red and sweating, so she didn’t refuse.
“We are supposed to sell them for money. How can we eat it ourselves?” She smiled and wiped her sweat.
“Why not? We should be rewarded for our hard work!” Lin Xiaoyue laughed.
“IWenty-five buckets is too many. We should bring two less tomorrow. Let’s pack up early so it won’t be so hot when we go back.”
“It’s just a little hot, it’s not like we’re not walking back! Tomorrow, we should prepare as many as today!” Aunt w.a.n.g quickly said.
Two buckets of cold cakes could be sold for at least 200 wen.
The place where they sold the cold cakes was shaded and it wasn’t hot. It would just take 30 minutes more, so what’s the big deal?
“Hehe, whatever you say, Aunt w.a.n.g.”
As they talked, Lin Xiaoyue made the ox walk faster. In less than half an hour, the two of them were back at the Liu residence.
Aunt w.a.n.g helped to unload the cart and went back after she was done.
In the kitchen, the rice was ready.
He heard from Liu Shi that w.a.n.g Erya helped. Lin Xiaoyue only needed to cook the dishes now.
In fact, Liu Shi planned to do it herself, but she couldn’t stop the villagers from coming over from time to time to buy cold cakes.
Hence, Liu Shi had to wait for her daughter to come back.
Lin Xiaoyue took out the vegetables and started to get busy.
When they were almost ready, they called the two children to help with the fire.
Then, she cut and stir-fried the vegetables. Soon, the dishes were ready.
After lunch, Lin Xiaoyue went to Uncle Sun’s house.
She told Uncle Sun about the drawings and her ideas, and asked him to help build the tables, chairs, and shelves.
“Sure, it’s not complicated. I’ll hurry up and finish it before the renovation starts!” Uncle Sun said.
Lin Xiaoyue’s eyes lit up.
“Thank you so much. Can I pay you after you’re done with the work?” Lin Xiaoyue said, a little embarra.s.sed..
