Chapter 78 - 78 Growing Cacti

78 Growing Cacti

In the afternoon, Su Wen brought little sister Su to make some food. They had originally planned to do the laundry first, but the dirty clothes had already been washed by Su Qing.

Su Qing went to the tailor’s after washing the clothes.

In the afternoon, after finishing the house chores, she started to make dumplings. The shepherd’s purse was washed and cut into pieces, and the oil residue left from the pork she bought last time was added. She soaked the vermicelli in boiling water, cut it into pieces, and put it in. She stir-fried the herbal eggs into pieces and put them in an enamel basin used for cooking.

After adding salt and a little msg into half a basin of stuffing, the taste was perfect after the taste test, and it was done.

When the smell of oil residue, boiled eggs, and shepherd’s purse mixed together, there was a special, appetizing aroma. Little sister Su stood in front of the table, drooling.

“It smells so good.”

“We’ll be able to eat it soon.”

Su Wen was very fast at making dumplings, and she taught little sister Su step by step. The two of them made more than a hundred dumplings in no time.

It was enough for two meals.

They will eat dumplings tonight and tomorrow morning. In addition, she also planned to give some to Wang Chunyan. Fortunately, she had her protection today, and she had to return the favor.

In order to maintain their relationship, they could not be stingy.

Su Qing was the first to be home when the sun had set.

As soon as she entered the house, she stood in the central room and looked at Su Wen, who was busy with work, with a complicated expression. Her eyes were filled with heartache, surprise, admiration, guilt, and self-blame.

She knew everything that happened in the village today. The news had spread widely, and even those who went to the tailor’s place in the neighboring village had heard about it.

Su Qing vaguely realized that as long as she was not at home, her big sister would always cause big trouble. Everything was shocking. Recently, she had been joking around with the other apprentices at her Master’s place. Today, even her Master joined the talk.

From the bottom of her heart, Su Qing felt that her big sister was really powerful. She could not say how powerful she was, but she could tell.

Su Wen did not know Su Qing’s thoughts. If she knew, she would have told her that there was a phrase called “hot topics physique”.

“You’re back? Su Wen called out and continued with her work.

After little sister Su chased the chickens into the chicken pen in the yard, she came in and asked Su Qing, “Second sister, did you get the cacti?”

“Yes.” Su Qing kept this matter in mind. This afternoon, she took the opportunity to visit a few more shops and got a lot. She did not carry it in when she entered the house, but placed it on the wall of the courtyard.

Little sister Su cheered, “That’s great! We can plant the cacti on the top of the wall. Then we won’t have to worry about people climbing the wall at night.”

A few days ago, Chen Guihua had climbed the wall in the middle of the night, which had scared little sister Su.

The two sisters put on thick gloves and quickly planted the cacti sparsely. Although it was not fully planted now, it would not take long for it to grow very luxuriant. It would cover the entire top of the courtyard wall. This way, no one would dare to climb over the wall and steal things.

Otherwise, they would definitely be pricked by the cacti.

Su Wen finished her work and stood in the yard to see the two’s work. She gave them a thumbs up. “Not bad, this is a good idea. We can have cactus fruits to eat after a while.” When she was young, she had eaten cactus fruits. They were red, and after the outer skin was peeled, the inside was quite sweet.

“Big sister, how’s the cake you’re selling today? Were you able to sell it?” In fact, when Su Qing was planting cacti with her younger sister, she had already heard her younger sister’s chatter for a long time. However, she could not believe what her younger sister had said.

Su Wen nodded. “My little sister just said it.”

Su Qing was speechless.

Was what my little sister said true?
