Lunch break is over.

Lin Jiaojiao came to the corner of the main room door and looked at the doghouse that Lin Yizhi had built for Xiaobai. The little guy was still sleeping soundly.

She came to the kitchen and saw Zhao Yang washing pork tenderloin and Lin Yizhi frying spices beside him. These were all brought back by Lin Dadan after delivering the goods this morning.

Lin Yizhi scooped all the fried spices into a pot and brought it to the bakery. Lin Jiaojiao was already sitting in front of the stone mill, preparing to grind the five-spice powder.

She poured the fried spices into the stone mill and started grinding them, preparing to try making pork jerky and meat floss later.

Here, Zhao Yang had already put half of the washed pork tenderloin into the pot, and he chopped the remaining half into puree.

Lin Yizhi took out the cooked pork tenderloin and dried it, while Zhao Yang chopped the meat into puree and added seasoning to it.

Add sugar, salt, soy sauce and five-spice powder and mix well. Put the meat paste on the wax paper and cover the surface with another piece of wax paper.

Pick up the rolling pin and roll it on the wax paper. When it becomes thin, tear off the wax paper and put it into the heated bread oven.

Then put the cooled pork tenderloin into a gauze bag, beat it with a rolling pin, take it out and tear it into very thin strips along the texture, add salt, sugar and soy sauce and mix well.

Then brush a thin layer of oil in the pan, pour in the shredded meat, and stir-fry continuously with two spatulas until the moisture is dried up and the meat becomes fluffy. Now leave it to Zhao Yang to complete it.

He went to the bakery and took out the meat patties that had been baked for more than a quarter of an hour. He mixed some honey water, brushed the honey water evenly on both sides of the meat patties, sprinkled white sesame seeds on them, and continued to bake them in the kiln for another quarter of an hour.

While waiting, he checked to see that the meat floss that Zhao Yang had stir-fried had turned into velvety threads. He asked Zhao Yang to add some white sesame seeds at the end, then scooped it out and put it in a jar and sealed it. He put the remaining some on a plate and gave it to Lin Jiaojiao to taste.

Lin Jiaojiao picked up a piece with chopsticks and tasted it. She felt it was okay. Although it was not as delicious as the ones nowadays, it was still quite successful here. Then she told him that she could make pork floss crisps later, which were the same as the chestnut crisps mentioned above, but the filling was changed to pork floss and egg yolk. Because there was no salad dressing, she asked him to add some honey water at the end, stir it evenly and wrap it in the crispy dough.

Lin Yizhi also took a little to taste, nodded and said it tasted good, and said he would go to the farm later to try making some meat floss crisps.

After about a quarter of an hour, he put on gloves and took the pork jerky out of the kiln. A sweet aroma of meat wafted to his face.

"My dear wife, this must be delicious!"

Then he followed her instructions and cut off the scraps. A large square piece of pork jerky was cut into several neat pieces.

He picked up a piece and put it to her mouth, watching her reaction with anticipation.

She took a bite and was very satisfied with the taste. "It's soft and chewy, delicious! I want you to try it too."

He also took a piece and took a bite, looking amazed, "My wife is really delicious, I want to eat more after eating it, I can't stop at all!"

She also took one piece and nodded in agreement with Lin Yizhi.

"What kind of bread can I make with this, my wife?"

"I haven't thought of this yet. It's delicious just as it is. You can make it as a snack when you have nothing to do, or sell it later."

"Okay, then I'll take it out for Dad and the others to try."

"Well go ahead."

Zhou Xiaofeng happened to be bringing Lin Fei over here. When he saw that they had made something new, he quickly stepped forward and said, "Brother Zhi, what new thing have you made? It smells so good."

"My wife said this is called pork jerky, and this plate is pork floss. Uncle Zhou, Feifei, you guys should try it, it's delicious."

"Then I won't be polite."

Zhou Xiaofeng first handed Lin Fei a piece of pork jerky and handed it to him, then he took a piece and started eating it himself.

"Is this pork? How come it's so delicious! It's sweet and fragrant when you chew it. Do you want to sell it? It will definitely be a big hit!"

"It's pork. My wife said we can sell it later."

"Sell! Must sell! I'm sure this will sell better than bread, but the price will definitely be higher."

After Lin Fei finished eating a piece, he looked at it eagerly, and his father took another piece and handed it to him.

"Thank you, uncle."

Lin Yizhi looked at Lin Fei's cute appearance and touched her belly quietly. She had obviously tried very hard, but her belly just didn't cooperate and there was no movement at all.

He must work harder tonight!

Lin Jiaojiao had no idea what was waiting for her at night. She was still grinding the five-spice powder with great effort. Zhao Xiaotong was adding spices for her. Zhao Yang waited for her hands to get sore before he took over.

After a while, Lin Yizhi walked to the door and said, "My dear wife, Uncle Zhou and I are going to the bakery. Do you want to come with us?"

Lin Jiaojiao thought about it, looked at the spices that were still mostly left, shook her head and said, "You guys go ahead, I'll finish grinding the spices first."

"Okay, let's go first."

She nodded, and watched him leave while grinding. Lin Yiyan came over with a glass of honey water. She also stood up to give her seat to Zhao Yang and shook her sore arms.

Lin Yiyan watched her take the cup and drink it, with a distressed look on his face, "Jiaojiao, go and have a rest. Zhao Bo and I will take care of the rest."

She returned the cup to him and shook her head. "This is hard work, and it's for us women to do. Go to the main hall and stay with Dad and the others."

Lin Yiyan had no choice but to give up. Stone grinding was indeed a strenuous job. Zhao Yang felt a little tired after grinding a few rounds. She noticed it, so she asked him to move aside and sat down to start grinding again.

Fu Zhai.

At the dining table in the main hall, Fu's father scooped a bowl of Chinese yam, codonopsis and black chicken soup for Fu Qiu. He didn't know if his son had caught a cold due to the cooler weather or what, but he had lost a lot of weight in the past half month.

A few days ago, after finally recovering from a cold, his son went to the store every day again. He began to suspect that his son had fallen in love with someone he liked.

But later I asked Tongfu and Manager Fu, and they both said that the young master had not had any contact with or met any other women.

"Xiaoqiu, drink this bowl of soup last."

Fu Qi had no choice but to take it. He took one sip and couldn't drink any more because he really had no appetite.

"Mom, Dad, Sister, Brother Huai, I'm done eating. I'm going back to the house first."

Fu Qi left the table after seeing them all nodded. As soon as he stepped over the threshold, he heard Fu Ling talking about something extra.

He paused and then stepped out and stood behind the door, saying to Tongfu, "It's still early and I want to go feed the fish. I'll wait for you here. Go and get some fish food."

Tongfu was very happy to see that he was in much better spirits, and immediately responded and ran to get the fish food.

"Mom, the day after tomorrow, after Lin Jiaojiao and I have confirmed the time, I will be ready to leave for Zhouzhou. I can also send my cousin Huai back to Qingzhou."

"Okay, I've already sent a letter to Zhouzhou. When the time comes, go find Manager Cao and she will make the arrangements."

"Okay, Dad, cousin Huai, do you want anything? I'll bring you some..."

"Dad doesn't have anything to bring, bring some for Xiaoqiu..."

Fu Qi stood outside the door, clutching the hem of her clothes, trying to slow down her suddenly beating heart.

He hasn't seen her for a long time...
