160 500 Bowls of Cold Cakes

When Aunt Wang saw Lin Xiaoyue coming over, her face immediately lit up with a smile.

“Your mother doesn’t want to take it. So you take it.” She came forward and stuffed the bamboo basket into Lin Xiaoyue’s hands.

Lin Xiaoyue smiled and accepted it.

“I’m done seeing the both of you going back and forth. I’m thick-skinned enough to accept it.” She said with a smile.

!!

Liu Shi looked at her daughter with some embarrassment.

However, Aunt Wang was all smiles.

“Exactly! Yue’er, you’re the most straightforward!”

“Aunt Wang, have you eaten?” Lin Xiaoyue asked.

“Yes. I only came over after I was done cleaning up.”

“Thank you again for the help!”

“Don’t mention it again!” She laughed and glared at Aunt Wang.

“Hehe, alright, I won’t say it anymore,” Aunt Wang said with a smile.

Lin Xiaoyue talked to Liu Shi and Aunt Wang for a while, then sent Aunt Wang away and went to call Li Xiao.

At this moment, Li Xiao was still digging a pond in the stream.

Lin Xiaoyue wanted to make a large number of cold cakes, and the previous pond was not big enough.

“Six ponds should be enough. We’ll leave one for getting water and the other five to store the cold cakes.”

One could hold five or six pots of cold cakes, so five pools were more than enough.

Li Xiao looked at Lin Xiaoyue.

“You’ve forgotten to buy cloth. If you don’t cover it, the leaves will fall into the buckets,” he said with a frown.

Lin Xiaoyue looked at the ponds.

“We need something to hold the cloth in place too. Go to Uncle Sun’s house later and ask him for a few wooden planks. Place it horizontally above the ponds to prevent branches and leaves from falling in.”

They could do more with these ponds other than cooling the cold cakes.

“Alright,” he said.

Then, he went back with Lin Xiaoyue to grind the rice paste before going to Carpenter Sun’s house.

Lin Xiaoyue and Liu Shi started to make cold cakes in the kitchen.

“Tomorrow, it’ll just be you and Aunt Wang. Can you do it?” Liu Shi was lighting the fire in front of the stove, looking at Lin Xiaoyue with some worry.

She was indeed not as agile as Aunt Wang.

Not only was she shy, she was also not very good at greeting customers and collecting money.

It would be good to let Aunt Wang go with her daughter, as she could help her daughter more.

However, Li Xiao wasn’t going tomorrow either. It was just the two of them, so she was a little worried that they wouldn’t be able to handle it.

“No problem. Aunt Wang was quick and good at calculations. With her help, we can sell a lot of cold cakes tomorrow.” Lin Xiaoyue replied.

“On the other hand, there are still many people in the village who don’t know that we sell cold cakes.”

“Tomorrow morning, why don’t you let Qing’er and Xiaozhi accompany you to the fields? At the same time, tell everyone that they can come to our house to buy some cold cakes.”

Liu Shi nodded.

“Sure! I’ll bring Qing’er and Xiaozhi to the fields!” She was not that afraid of the villagers.

Besides, Qing’er wasn’t afraid of strangers. With him by her side, she felt that she should be able to succeed.

Lin Xiaoyue smiled.

“There are 20 buckets of cold cakes made today. I’ll send 4 to town later, and 14 tomorrow morning. We’ll leave 2 at home and see if you can sell them before we come back tomorrow.”

Liu Shi was a little shocked.

“…you made so many?” She had used all the small wooden buckets at home.

“So many? There are only 500 bowls of cold cakes in total. Ruyi Restaurant is taking 200 of them,” Lin Xiaoyue said.

According to her calculation, 500 bowls of cold cakes could only earn a total of 1,500 wen, which was equivalent to 1.5 taels of silver.
