Lin was not sure about the amount of salt, but Cuicui got it right, stir-frying and seasoning in one go, with a look of confidence on her face that she didn't usually have.

Lin picked up a bite with chopsticks and gave a thumbs up.

“It tastes good, very delicious.”

The seasoning and cooking time are impeccable.

Cui Cui lowered her head and pretended to wipe her hands, with a faint smile on her lips.

"Now let's make the minced meatballs."

Lin also asked Cuicui to wash the pot, pour oil and start cooking.

The minced meatballs are fried in oil in advance to set in shape, then stewed in a pot to make them tasty.

"You know star anise, this is cinnamon..."

Lin explained softly while cooking, and Cuicui listened attentively.

The outer room was not big to begin with, so Cuicui helped out nearby. Cui Zhaozhao was happy to have some free time. He counted out the copper coins and went to the yard to wait for his wages. He also asked Old Lady Cui for some green onions.

The sun slowly set, and shredded vegetables were piled in a basin in the corner of the yard. The other two women received their wages and returned home happily.

There were two tables set up in the middle of the yard, and the dishes were already placed on them.

"Take this bowl of food back and eat it with your mother tonight."

It was the first time for the two of them to work together, and they cooperated unexpectedly well. Lin was particularly fond of the quiet little girl in front of her. Before leaving, she picked up a bowl of vegetables with meat at the bottom.

Cuicui thanked her and accepted it.

Lin took out another cloth bag and said, "You already know the seasonings. Here are some seasonings. Take them back and study them yourself."

There was surprise in Cui Cui's eyes.

The seasoning was bought in Lindong County. Since it is a rare item shipped back by sea, it is not cheap. This small package costs at least several dozen coins.

But Lin was in a good mood. She handed it to her with a wave of her hand and sent her out of the yard.

Just after seeing Cuicui off, several figures emerged from the corner.

"Auntie, we're back!"

Thick Neck lowered his voice and sneaked up to Lin.

Lin subconsciously took a step back, looked around again, and asked in confusion: "When did you come?"

Thick Neck scratched his head and laughed innocently: "I've been here for nearly an hour."

"Just waiting here?"

Thick Neck nodded sincerely.

Lin was speechless: "Next time, just come in directly. What's the point of hiding outside?"

They were all unfamiliar faces, and when the villagers who didn't know the truth saw them, they mistook them for beggars.

Thick Neck waved his hands repeatedly: "It's okay, it's okay. We have plenty of time anyway."

After doing so many bad things, I feel guilty when I think about entering someone else's house.

Lin said no more: "How were the results today?"

Thick Neck couldn't wait any longer and said hurriedly, "We've got business! We've got 30 kilograms! Qingfenglou ordered 10 kilograms, Danguifang ordered 10 kilograms, and..."

"Danguifang?"

Thick Neck chuckled and said, "Auntie, do you know Danguifang? That's a great place."

Lin had lived in the county town for a few years. Although she had never been there, it was impossible for her not to know about the largest brothel in the county town.

"I won't accept business from Danguifang."

"Why not?" Thick Neck was anxious. "The manager of Danguifang said that if it sells well, they will place long-term orders. Auntie, haven't you seen that their business is much better than the restaurant? Maybe they can order dozens of kilograms a day..."

"We're farmers, just selling small vegetables. We can't do such a big business." Lin interrupted him, "I can't go back on my word this time. I'll deliver it tomorrow morning. Don't go there again. It's getting late. Come in and eat first."

Thirty kilograms can eat three meals. The thick-necked people immediately forgot about Danguifang and happily followed him into the yard.
