Chapter 526: Fresh Cured Meat

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation    Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Lan Ruozhu always carefully listened to whatever his sister said. At the same time, he felt sorry for her.

‘She’s just as brilliant as before, or perhaps she knows more now. Since her health has improved, she can do more things.’

He turned to look at Su Binglan and noticed she happily smiled when discussing the tofu factory. For Lan Ruozhu, it was good that his sister was happy.

It was his first time seeing a factory like hers. His eyes were full of curiosity. ‘So, this is how they make tofu.’

Su Binglan looked at her brother’s expression and knew he found such things interesting. “I’ll bring you to my uncle’s cured meat stall later.”

Lan Ruozhu raised his brows when he heard ‘cured meat.’ He asked, “Isn’t that one of the things 1 ate last night?”

Su Binglan nodded and explained smilingly, “That’s right. My Uncle Fengchen and Aunt Zhizhi were responsible for making them. We’ll go there later to take a look. If you like their food, we can buy some.”

Lan Ruozhu smiled shyly. “Indeed, it was pretty delicious.”

He enjoyed eating, but as an older brother, he felt slightly shameful asking his sister for food.

Su Binglan burst out laughing when she saw her brother acting so shyly. She thought he looked adorable as she said, “All right, I’ll buy some for you. You don’t have to be so shy with me, Brother.”

She was the one who taught Su Fengchen and Miao Zhizhi to make cured meat, grilled chicken, and roast duck. The young couple followed her instructions to make cured meat but never expected their business to become so popular.

The demand for cured meats was much more significant than their grilled chicken and roast duck. That was because the price of cured meats was more affordable, and everyone could buy a little.

They would have to buy the whole grilled chicken and roast duck, so it was more expensive than cured meats, in their opinion. In addition, cured meat tasted excellent and went well with rice. Everyone would occasionally buy some to improve the food they ate.

The feelings between the siblings were indescribable. They felt like they could rely on each other. When Su Binglan reached her grandparents’ houses, she saw the cured meat stall at the entrance.

The young couple had modeled it after the current stalls, making it much more convenient to open it in front of their house. A long queue was at the stall’s entrance, and everyone was waiting to buy their cured meats.

Su Fengchen returned to his room to get a new batch of cured meat while his wife stood there to collect the money and serve everyone.

“I’ll have two servings of your delicious duck, please. I’d like the non-spicy version, Ma’am.”

“May I have another serving of pigs head meat?”

“l want six duck heads, but there aren’t many left. I hope it doesn’t sell out before I get to the front.”

“l like eating their peanut side dish. It’s cheap and goes well with my wine at home.’

“So many people are in front of us. I wonder if there will be more food if we’re too late.”

“You should be okay to get some. There is other food at the market if you can’t.”

“l didn’t manage to buy any of Su Fengchen’s food last time, so I’ll buy more now.”

“l only bought some the last time I came, and they sold out of pig’s head meat. It tastes much better here than the ones we make at home. It’s much tastier when the Su family makes it.”

Su Fengchen learned hunger marketing from Su Binglan but did not intend to do that. After all, he genuinely did not have enough cured meat to sell. Even if he and Miao Zhizhi made more, they would still be in short supply because too many wanted their products.

Su Fengchen realized the popularity of his products had exceeded his expectations. However, his food indeed tasted delicious. It made people desire his products more than others.

He had previously made cured meats according to Su Binglan’s instructions. Then he, his wife, and his parents found it delicious and could not help but eat it for several days.

Later, the family could finally restrain themselves. They realized they could not eat the same thing constantly, no matter how delicious it was.

Miao Zhizhi brightly smiled as she tended to the customers. “Don’t worry, everyone. My husband will bring more cured meat soon. We made it fresh, so it’s still warm, just nice for everyone to bring home for lunch. We always sell our products in the same spot every day.”

The people queueing up chuckled when they heard her explanation.

“I’m relieved to hear that. It’s good that we can buy more, Ma’am.”

“We believe your food is always fresh. Otherwise, we wouldn’t want to buy it so badly.”

“How do you make your products taste so good?”

Miao Zhizhi proudly said, “Our niece, Binglan, was the one who taught us. It’s her secret recipe.”

Everyone was enlightened. “Oh, the always capable Miss Su was the one who taught you? The foods she develops are always so delicious.”

“Yeah, we went to town to eat skewers. That’s your third brother-in-law’s restaurant, and he said Miss Su had taught him to make skewers, too. His seasonings are also Miss Su p s exclusive recipes.”

Miao Zhizhi was weighing the braised meat for packaging as she said, “Of course, our Binglan is brilliant. Others can’t imitate the food she develops.”

Everyone agreed with her. “You’re right. The other barbecue skewers in town are pretty delicious but lack flavor. Their seasonings can’t beat your third brother-in-law’s.’

Miao Zhizhi noticed the small box beside her was full again as she busied herself. She became happier and started moving faster. Then she widened her eyes in surprise when she saw her niece. “Binglan, I see you’re free to come over today.

“Your uncle will be here soon with more cured meat. I’ll pack some for you to take home and eat.’

Although Miao Zhizhi was only a few years older than Su Binglan, she cherished her new-found niece as an elder. She did not know why, but her mood constantly improved whenever she saw Su Binglan.

Miao Zhizhi felt it was because her niece was likable. She was proud to be a part of the Su family.

Su Binglan shook her head. “Aunt Zhizhi, you can’t give me free things. I must pay for them, you know?”

However, Miao Zhizhi insisted, “You can’t pay for them since you own shares. It’s your business, too. If you didn’t teach your uncle and me how to make cured meat, our business wouldn’t have gotten so popular.”

Su Binglan said, “You and Uncle Fengchen are smart, so I didn’t do much. I’ll pay for the things you give me. If you refuse my payment, I’ll feel too embarrassed to return here.’

She was persistent and felt it would be troublesome for her aunt and uncle to deduct it from the dividends later. Moreover, Su Fengchen and Miao Zhizhi might not even consider the expense when they settled their accounts. They might even consider the product as a gift to their niece.

Therefore, Su Binglan would always pay for her things. That way, it would be easier for the couple to do their accounts.

Under Su Binglan’s persistence, Miao Zhizhi could only take her niece’s money and weigh the cured meat. However, she suddenly saw the youth behind her niece and asked curiously, “Huh? Who’s he?”

Although Lan Ruozhu had suppressed his presence, Miao Zhizhi could feel a nobleness radiating from him..
