Start with three days of hunger and nine meals, and become rich and tempting

Wang's heart felt warm, her eyes were filled with gratitude, and she kept expressing her gratitude.

Liu Siyu raised her hand to stop him.

"Don't thank me so early. I am making long-term plans for Sihan, but whether he can succeed depends on himself. Also, I am only responsible for his tuition. You should figure out other expenses by yourselves."

Wang nodded immediately, "Of course, this is as it should be."

Liu Sihan's heart and eyes were filled with gratitude, but he did not say a word of thanks. He just held Liu Siyu's hand tightly with his little hand.

His grateful eyes gradually became firm. He knew that it was useless to say anything now. The best way to repay his sister was to stand up again.

When Liu Siyu got home, the first thing she went to look at the tofu was that a layer of white hair had grown on it.

She happily picked up the chopsticks and picked it up, but Wang felt distressed.

"The tofu was already rotten, and you were covering it with a dustpan. Now it's all covered with hair. Not only can it be eaten by people, even pigs won't eat it."

Seeing that her sister liked the white hair very much, Liu Sihan asked curiously, "Sister, what are the white hairs for?"

"I don't know if white hair is useful, but if it grows, I have a way to turn it into something delicious."

As Liu Siyu spoke, she poured the white wine into a coarse porcelain bowl and picked up a piece of hairy tofu with chopsticks and dipped it in the wine.

Then coat it with the powdered seasonings and finally put it in a small jar.

Wang's eyelids twitched as she watched.

"You're dipping it in wine and coating it with seasonings. Even if the tofu's stench is suppressed, what if someone gets sick after eating it?"

Liu Sihan had an inexplicable trust in Liu Siyu, and he didn't want his mother to keep pouring cold water on him.

"Mom, don't you believe in my elder sister?"

Wang's lips moved for a moment, but in the end she said nothing.

She and Liu Siyu have been tired of each other for so many years, and this girl has done a lot of ridiculous things in the past.

Although things have changed now, unconditional trust cannot be achieved all at once.

Besides, she had never heard of this way of eating. It was natural for her to be worried, and her heartache was the truth.

Liu Siyu dipped a plate of tofu in wine and coated it with seasonings, then placed the pieces in a jar, filling up half the jar.

Then he laughed and joked, "When I was making acorn tofu, didn't you say that even pigs wouldn't eat it? Where did it go in the end? Didn't it all end up in people's stomachs?"

"The same goes for these. We make sure they all end up in people's stomachs. Not a single bit will be wasted."

Seeing that Liu Siyu was so sure, Wang remembered that she had indeed said so when she was picking acorns, and suddenly felt a little expectant.

"When can we eat this tofu?"

“It will be ready to eat in a few days.”

Liu Siyu covered the jar with a piece of old parchment, wrapped it with hemp rope several times, and finally tied a beautiful bow.

The fermented bean curd is ready, just wait for time for it to absorb the flavor.

As Liu Siyu waited anxiously, the time she had agreed with Manager Fu soon arrived.

But there was still no sign of anyone from Chaxiangji coming, and Liu Siyu became a little anxious.

I wondered to myself, could it be that Shopkeeper Fu has already figured out a moisturizing cream?

But her recipe is incomplete, and she deliberately misled people by buying seasonings, so it shouldn't be that fast.

Could it be that Lai Xi and Boss Li have been bribed by her?

If this is true, it would not be difficult to make a moisturizing cream based on the descriptions of these two people.

Especially Lai Xi, he bought a lot of medicinal herbs for Liu Siyu.

Thinking of this, disappointment crept into my heart.

At noon, Chaxiangji's carriage slowly stopped outside Liu Siyu's house.

It was still the same black-covered carriage, but the only people coming were the shopkeeper Fu and two young servants.

Liu Siyu asked Manager Fu to sit down in the house, and the two began a verbal battle.

The carriage outside the fence immediately attracted the attention of the villagers.

Some curious people secretly stretched their necks to take a look.

The people in the house were not affected at all.

Manager Fu offered 50 taels of silver, but Liu Siyu wanted 200 taels.

The gap between them is so huge that no one is willing to give in.

Shopkeeper Fu rolled his eyes.

"I already have the formula. Even though it's missing one ingredient, the effect is not noticeable to most people. The reason why you are willing to offer this price is because of our long-term cooperation."

After Manager Fu said this, Liu Siyu instantly calmed down.

It seems that the road to Laixi is not accessible at all.

As for whether hand cream has been made, it is still a question mark.

If she bribed Lai Xi, she would basically be able to master all the recipes.

Probably I won’t make this trip today.

Thinking of this, Liu Siyu straightened his back.

He said nonchalantly, "This moisturizing cream is indeed simple. Since Shopkeeper Fu has already made it, why bother buying my formula?"

Shopkeeper Fu smiled.

"Although it has been made, it is still missing one ingredient. I pursue perfection, so I am willing to spend 50 taels to buy your last ingredient."

Seeing that she was stubborn, Liu Siyu deliberately said:

"Okay, I accept your proposal. Then tell me which herbs you have mastered so that I can make up for the one you are missing."

Shopkeeper Fu was choked by Liu Siyu's words, and his face suddenly looked a little embarrassed.

It's not that she is missing one medicine, what she made is totally useless.

The smell of fennel is too strong, and there is also star anise. You can't smell such a pungent smell in Liu Siyu's moisturizing cream.

The main reason I came here today was to trick Liu Siyu into handing over the recipe, but I didn't expect that this girl is not someone who is so easy to fool.

He immediately gave up the idea of ​​continuing to beat around the bush and said directly: "Let's each take a step back. I'll offer 60 taels."

Liu Siyu smiled.

"Since you are so straightforward, I will also give in and give you 180 taels."

Shopkeeper Fu's expression changed, "70 taels."

"160 taels," the two of them negotiated back and forth.

The final transaction price was 120 taels.

The two parties signed a document that Liu Siyu could not sell the formula to anyone else, nor could she sell the same moisturizing cream within three years.

Liu Siyu agreed readily. After this incident, she had understood a truth.

No matter what business you are running, when you don't have the ability to protect yourself, you can't just think about standing behind the scenes and controlling everything. This way you can easily be completely hidden by others.

Seeing Manager Fu's carriage going further and further away, the villagers couldn't help but speculate.

"How could the Liu family have relatives who could afford a carriage?"

"Yeah, could it be that Siyu's mother is back?"

"I don't think so. Maybe the eldest daughter of the Liu family has come to her senses again and is planning to go to the Huang family to enjoy a good life."

"That can't be possible. Didn't she just get engaged to the Tian family in Xinghua Village?"

Liu Siyu listened to the whispers in the distance and didn't care at all.

I turned around and went back to the house to look at the fermented tofu. Tomorrow is the big market, which is also the last and largest market of the year. The town will definitely be very lively.

She wanted to seize the opportunity before the New Year and try selling fermented tofu when it was at its peak popularity.
