Chapter 7
"I won't leave. As long as you don't drive me away, or your father doesn't drive me away, I won't leave. I will stay and grow up with Xiao Xi'er!" Meng Yuxuan affirmed.

"Great. Then what do I call you? Mother? Are you going to be my mother?" Shangguanxi hugged Meng Yuxuan's neck and smiled happily.

"This... your father hasn't agreed yet. Are you calling me aunt?" Meng Yuxuan thought for a while, her cheeks turned red. "How about calling me Aunt Xuan?"

"Okay, Aunt Xuan." Shangguanxi called loudly.

"Since Xiao Xi'er has no other problems, Aunt Xuan is going to cook. Are you hungry? I'll make something delicious for you later." Meng Yuxuan looked at the child in her arms dotingly.

"Well, can I help? I want to help in the future, but my father just won't let me. In fact, I'm really bored to stay in the room all day." Shangguan Xi pouted aggrievedly.

"Okay. Then help me light the fire." Meng Yuxuan took Shangguanxi's little hand and walked towards the kitchen.

In the next room, Shangguan Huan was lying on the bed, the voice in his ears became weaker and weaker, and he could only vaguely hear the two people's playfulness.Warmth flashed in those deep eyes, and the corners of his mouth rose slightly.

Although having a woman is the same as not having a woman in his eyes, Xi'er seems to need such a person to accompany him.At least you can talk with him and laugh with him.For so many years, he had never seen Xi'er so energetic.This is the mental state a child should have.For Xi'er, as long as that woman doesn't do anything to hurt him, he can tolerate her.

From the kitchen came the two of them laughing louder and louder.Along with the sound, there is also a tangy fragrance.Not long after, Shangguanxi brought the food into the house.

"Father, you eat." Shangguan Xi restrained a lot in front of Shangguan Huan.

"What about her?" Shangguan Huan sat up with difficulty.

"Aunt Xuan went to tidy up the vegetable garden. She said that the yard is huge, and it's too wasteful to always be empty. She grows some vegetables, so we don't have to buy vegetables in the future." It was only a few hours later, when Shangguanxi mentioned Meng Yuxuan, his face Full of smiles. "Father, can you eat? How about I call Aunt Xuan in to feed you?"

Shangguan Huan looked at Shangguanxi's eyes full of stars, and felt funny for no reason.From whom did this kid learn these messy things?
The woman didn't do anything to him, so he was bribed like this?

"No, I'll eat by myself." Looking at the meat porridge and egg pancakes in the bowl, Shangguan Huan suddenly felt his appetite increase.

He is not a good cook.It was good luck not to poison the two of them to death all these years.In the past two days, I ate normal food.

In the yard, Meng Yuxuan plowed the ground to grow vegetables.For two consecutive days, apart from serving the three meals of the father and son and packing their clothes, she spent the rest of her time growing vegetables and embroidering.The Penglai space has been empty there and has never had time to take care of it.After all, digging the ground and growing vegetables during the day is already very tiring, and if she goes to dig the ground and grow vegetables in the space at night, she doesn't know if she will be able to get up the next day.

On the third day, there was finally a small vegetable patch in the yard.After planning the place, she began to think about how to earn money as quickly as possible.

Since ancient times, if you want to earn money, you have to do business.Now that the family is about to run out of food, we must use the method of making money quickly, and we cannot procrastinate.

There were more than 400 cash left from the last time, so she handed over the handkerchief in her hand to Xiuge, and after the deposit was refunded, she could still earn [-] cash, so it was still [-] cash.

The cost of six hundred wen is neither too much nor too little.After much deliberation, she found another way to make money, which was to sell snacks.

The dim sum can be stored, so don't worry about it being cold and not delicious.She can make dim sum at home, and then carry it to the town to sell.Or sell directly to the big restaurant.As long as the taste is good, there is no need to worry about not being sold.After all, she is good at making dim sum.

It's just... what should I do for dessert?

She used to make dim sum to please the young masters of the Li family, but after she fell into prostitution, she wanted to please those noble young masters, so she learned to make high-end dim sum.But even if she can make high-end dim sum, can ordinary people afford it?

High-end snacks require a lot of money just to buy the materials. Six hundred cash is enough for an ordinary farmer to live for half a year, but even the scraps of high-end snacks cannot be bought.Therefore, no matter how you consider it, it is not suitable to make high-end dim sum.She had to find a way to make delicious snacks with less material cost.

"By the way, Penglai Space." Meng Yuxuan looked around, but didn't see anyone else, and a thought entered the space.

How did she forget the big bookstore in Penglai Space?The books there cover various fields, and may be able to unravel her confusion.

Once entering the space, there is a lush green vegetable field in front of you.There are several hawthorn trees around the vegetable field, and there are countless fruits on the trees.It's a pity that she didn't find other saplings, otherwise more fruit could be grown.After her experiments in the past few days, the land in Penglai's space is indeed miraculous, allowing all plants to mature quickly.It's just that the growth cycle is also fast and slow.

The cabbage she planted in the space three days ago is ready to eat.If it wasn't for worrying about arousing suspicion from others, she would have wanted to try those dishes that only gods are blessed to eat.

"Look up the recipe of the dim sum first." Meng Yuxuan walked to the study.When passing by the well outside the house, she habitually drank a few mouthfuls of cool and delicious well water with a ladle.

The well water is ice cold, with a touch of sweetness.Even though she has to drink several times a day, she still likes to drink the well water here.Moreover, she didn't know if it was an illusion, but she always felt that her skin felt like a peeled egg, not only smooth, but also rosy like rouge.There is a magic mirror in the space, which is left by the owner of the space.She couldn't believe it every time she took a picture.She was also a beautiful woman in her previous life, but compared with her now, both her temperament and appearance seemed ordinary.

Meng Yuxuan rummaged through dim sum recipes.As she expected, there is really everything here.She wanted to find dim sum recipes, and the bookshelf was full of dim sum recipes.Whether it's simple or complex, whether it's sweet, sour, bitter, or spicy, as long as it's what she wants, she can show it one by one.

"Chrysanthemum cake, red date cake, scallion cake, red bean cake..." Meng Yuxuan looked at those recipes and said to herself, "It seems to be all right. The ingredients for these things are easy to find. However, precisely because they are easy to find, In fact, there is nothing unusual. Ordinary people will make some home-cooked dim sum more or less. These dim sum are too ordinary."

"Hawthorn cake... this one is also simple. Maybe... this is the only one that is most suitable at present." There are several hawthorn trees in the village.Those hawthorns were ignored.There are more hawthorn trees in the mountains.If she sells hawthorn cakes in the town, no one will doubt the source of the raw materials.Another point is that the hawthorns in the space grow so well, it would be a pity not to replace them with silver.Moreover, she also wanted to test whether the vegetables and fruits grown in the space were really as good as the legends said.If her name is worthy of her reputation, she doesn't have to worry about money.

Meng Yuxuan made a final decision and decided to use the hawthorn in the space to make money.One is hawthorn cake, the other is hawthorn paste, and the third is canned hawthorn.

These things are very simple.She only needs to watch it once to make it completely.

"Xi'erniang." Aunt Lin called out from outside the courtyard.

Meng Yuxuan came out of the space.She poked her head out of the window, looked at Aunt Lin outside, and said, "Auntie, wait a minute, I'll come out right away."

Aunt Lin saw Meng Yuxuan with a bright smile on her face.The honest and honest woman quickly waved her hands and said, "No hurry, no hurry, I'm fine."

Meng Yuxuan found the embroidery pattern from the house, took it and went out.She said with a smile: "This is a new picture I drew last night. It's all rich people's favorite tricks. Auntie thinks it's suitable?"

Aunt Lin came to her specifically yesterday, saying that she wanted to ask her to draw some patterns for her wedding, and she wanted to embroider the bed quilt for her natal nephew.Meng Yuxuan had prepared it long ago and handed it over to her directly.

Aunt Lin looked at the exquisite drawing, and the mandarin ducks crossing their necks were both beautiful and dexterous. Even the embroidery pavilion in the town didn't have such a pattern.She couldn't put it down, and said with joy: "It's suitable. There is nothing more suitable than this. As expected, Xi Erniang has seen the world, she is different from us country women. I can't think of it in my life Such a color."

"Auntie will make fun of me. Yuxuan has nothing to do, so she can embroider and draw. During this time, I always ask my aunt to help me, but there are rare times when I can help my aunt. You can't look down on my clumsiness. "Meng Yuxuan smiled and blinked.

"You girl... By the way, there will be wine at the village chief's house tomorrow, do you want to go?" Aunt Lin pointed out: "Almost all people in our village are relatives. In the past, the village invited you to be the head of the house. But he doesn't care about people because of his temperament, and he doesn't care about these things. Later, everyone didn't like to invite him. Now that you are here, let's see if you are willing to join in the fun."

"But the village chief's little grandson is a hundred days old?" Meng Yuxuan heard that the village chief had waited for many years to have such a grandson.For ordinary people, even the important washing three is just inviting relatives and friends at home to have a meal, and they don't take the lives of these children so seriously.The village head's family is different.After all, it is the richest here, and there is that surplus food for the banquet.

"That's not true. The little guy is so cute, it's painful to look at." Aunt Lin said enviously.

"I'll go tomorrow. If there's anything wrong, I ask my aunt to give me some pointers." Meng Yuxuan said, "Auntie thinks it's more appropriate to be as polite as you want?"

"Why don't you raise some chickens at home? If you have eggs at home, twenty or thirty eggs are more appropriate. Since there are no chickens, are there any vegetables that grow better at home? Also, don't your family like rice? Send two catties of white rice to the village head, and you can cook some millet porridge for the village head’s grandson. I heard that the little guy doesn’t have enough milk, so it’s the most nutritious to break up the rice and cook it for him.” Aunt Lin said in the tone of someone who came here. suggested.

"Auntie is right." Meng Yuxuan nodded repeatedly. "Then my family will send two catties of white rice and two cabbages."

"I think this is suitable." Aunt Lin said with a smile. "I'll go back if it's okay. You're busy taking care of your family members, so I'm afraid you're very busy."
