Chapter 27

He Beian consciously made way, but he was afraid that Xu Ning might not be able to control it well, so he didn’t move too far away.

For the sake of the skill of making candied haws, Xu Ning temporarily sacrificed his principles and walked over despite feeling uncomfortable.

I followed his previous movements, pinched the tail of the bamboo sticks with my thumb and index finger, pressed them into the syrup, and then rubbed the bamboo sticks to rotate…

She didn’t know if it was bad luck or lack of skills, the bamboo stick turned but the candied haws didn’t move. She didn’t give up and tried again.

This time it was confirmed that the bamboo stick did rotate along with her gestures, but the hawthorn on the stick did not move at all.

Xu Ning frowned slightly, lifted up the bamboo stick, turned it over in his hand, and then dipped it.

This time it went smoothly. The other side had already been dipped, so just dip this side and it was ready to go.

Picking up the fruits of her labor, Xu Ning carefully placed them on a large enamel plate. Compared with those made by He Beian, hers had some flaws in appearance, but she believed that it must taste very good.

Watching the last candied haws being put into the enamel plate, He Beian walked out with the enamel plate in his hand, “Put it in the yard to cool down first, and you’ll be able to eat it soon.”

There was still a little syrup left in the pot. While He Beian was away, Xu Ning took the chopsticks, dipped them in the syrup and put them into her mouth. It was sweet and tasted good.

Although the one she made was not perfect, it was a big step towards becoming a qualified craftsman. She would taste it herself later.

While they were waiting, He Beian, who had just delivered the enamel plates, suggested going to find some clothes. By the time they found the clothes, they should be able to eat.

It was another thing that could not be refused, so Xu Ning followed him back to the house obediently and went to the small uninhabited room at the back to look for the box.

This room had no windows, was rather dark inside, and was more than half the size of the one they lived in, so it could only be used as a storage room.

The box seemed to be a set with the wardrobe in his room, and there were also two phoenixes painted on the front.

Xu Ning was a vulgar person, and he began to wonder how much the wardrobe and the boxes were worth.

This would surely be worth a lot of money at a modern auction.

The room was too small, so after He Beian went in, Xu Ning stood at the door waiting.

The lights were on in the room, and He Beian took out the shirts one by one for her to look at.

Xu Ning basically chose to take away all the shirts. Apart from the shirts, all the clothes were dark in color, either dark blue or black, which were not suitable for Xu Ning to wear.

After taking away one long-sleeved shirt and two short-sleeved shirts, the task of finding clothes is completed.

Xu Ning was thinking about his candied haws, so after sending the clothes back to his room, he trotted towards the yard.

She wants to try her own cooking!

Unexpectedly, He Beian came out earlier than her and was fiddling with the candied haws in the enamel plate.

Xu Ning ran to the opposite side of him and happily looked for her own piece in the enamel plate. After searching around, her smile faded and she looked at He Beian’s mouth which was chewing something.

After arranging all the beautiful items, He Beian secretly breathed a sigh of relief. Fortunately, he only agreed to leave her one to try. Although it looked uncomfortable, it was an easy problem to solve.

“He Beian, are those the candied haws I made that you are eating?” Xu Ning was afraid of making a mistake, so she searched again in the enamel plate.

But the candied haws she made were nowhere to be found!

This made her suspect that it was eaten by He Beian, and it was right in his mouth.

“What?” He Beian raised the candied haws in his hand and observed it carefully in the light of the light bulb in the room, and then apologized sincerely: “Sorry, I just grabbed one at random, I didn’t expect it to be such a coincidence.”

If Xu Ning hadn’t seen the neatly arranged and perfectly arranged candied haws on the enamel plate, he would have believed that he had just picked them randomly!

So he thinks her dish is ugly and doesn’t want her ugly appearance to ruin his perfect plating?

Instead of eating what he made, Xu Ning reached out and took a candied haws from the middle of the enamel plate, destroying the formation he had arranged, “I like this.”

“······” Knowing that his excuse didn’t work, He Beian looked at the empty space in the middle of the enamel plate, raised his eyes to Xu Ning, “Try it.”

The moment he looked over, Xu Ning had already put the candied haws into her mouth. She winked at him proudly, and her long eyelashes flickered with an unexplainable breeze.

I’m not that angry, just a little bit annoyed.

The sweet potato pieces are coated with sugar, with the sweetness of sweet potato inside and the sweetness of syrup outside.

The sweet potato chunks were very crispy, and the sugar coating was also very crispy. I don’t know why Xu Ning tasted the flavor of sugar-roasted chestnuts…

He Beian is more generous with the ingredients than the old man selling candied haws. After passing through his hands, the very sour hawthorns become sweet and sour. Xu Ning finished eating the string of sweet potatoes, then picked up the candied haws that she had not finished eating and started eating them.

The processed candied haws taste better than the ones sold by the old man. Xu Ning’s confidence has doubled. The way to make a fortune is just around the corner!

He Beian went back to the house only after he finished eating the ugly thing Xu Ning made. Xu Ning brought the candied haws to his mother-in-law and sister-in-law.

Hu Xianglan only took the one she had left and left the house. Xu Ning took it to He Wanjiao.

After taking the candied haws out of the house, Hu Xianglan looked inside the kitchen door and saw that there was no one there.

She turned and walked towards the couple’s room. She had something to tell He Beian, but she couldn’t let Xu Ning know. She had to say it secretly.

There was a curtain hanging at the door, and she lifted it and walked in. In the past, Hu Xianglan would knock on the door when entering the house, but since He Beian became deaf in one ear, this step has been omitted.

He Beian was making the bed in the room. He listened to Xu Ning’s advice and put two pillows on the bed.

If you don’t knock on the door outside, your son won’t hear you, but you still have to knock on the door. Hu Xianglan knocked on the door and said to the inside: “Beian, Mom has something to tell you.”

What is it like to turn around and see your mother standing at the door? Normally it should be normal because the door is open.

But this was too shocking for He Beian. If the door of the room opposite was open, his mother would have seen the bedding on the bed at this moment.

Fortunately, Xu Ning closed the door before going out.

“Mom, what’s the matter?” He Beian walked out of the house and led his mother to the outside without saying a word.

The young couple had already gotten married, and Hu Xianglan was not planning to go in. She just wanted to say a few words to him at the door, but she didn’t expect the child to insist that she sit down and talk.

Her eyes swept across the made bed and Hu Xianglan followed him out.

“I was wondering if you have time in three days? Take Xu Ning to buy some rapeseed. She just got married, and I don’t know what kind of vegetables she likes to eat. You can just take her to buy whatever she likes.”

He Beian had heard about this from Xu Ning, and he had misinterpreted it. “Xu Ning told me about this in the kitchen, and I told her I have time tomorrow afternoon.”

He thought his mother wanted to intimidate Xu Ning, but he didn’t expect that she wanted Xu Ning to buy the rapeseed seeds that she liked to eat.
