Chapter 256 Teaching Fourth Uncle to Make Sauce-Flavored Pancakes
The old woman glanced at the Liu brothers, feeling a little scared. After all, she was an elderly woman, and if the other party was really dishonest, she and her young granddaughter would be powerless to resist.
Moreover, the woman opposite him had a foul mouth and didn't seem like someone easy to get along with.
Before Qingchuan's family moved to Dushui County, Xiaoyu often went to her house to play with her granddaughter. Xiaoyu would also give her granddaughter candy. She knew Qingchuan and Feng'er's character to some extent.
How could such a gentle and virtuous girl like Feng'er have such a shrewish mother?
In her opinion, it was most likely her stepmother!
She didn't want to get entangled with the other party any further, and even though she knew that Qingchuan's family had moved to Dushui County, she pretended not to know.
“They haven’t been in town for long. Everyone lives their own lives behind closed doors. Who knows where they’ve moved to? You should look for them elsewhere.”
The old woman trembled slightly, hugged her granddaughter tightly, turned around and walked home. She slammed the door shut, her hands trembling, until she locked the bolt before she could finally relax a little.
After running around until my legs were sore and my feet were blistered, I finally found the right door, only to discover that my daughter and son-in-law had moved again, and the trail went cold once more.
Shen was so angry that her head was spinning. She squatted down on the ground, slapped her thigh, and started crying.
"Oh God, why did I give birth to such an ungrateful daughter? She's so unfilial. She's made money and is living a good life, but she's forgotten her own mother who carried her for ten months, risked half her life to give birth to her, and raised her with great difficulty..."
Because this alley is close to the town's market, most of the families in the alley do some small business at the market. They are usually out early and back late and are not at home. Even if someone is home, it is usually an elderly person or a child.
Therefore, when people heard Shen's wailing, they only peeked out from the front door a few times.
With the two Liu brothers present, the elderly and children were less inclined to join in the fun.
Shen cried and wailed for a long time, but didn't shed a single tear. Her two sons stood like wooden stakes, not even trying to pull her up or comfort her.
She felt she was losing face, and knowing that continuing to cry would be pointless, she stood up, dusted herself off, and glared at her two sons.
"Hmph, two unfilial wooden stakes!"
The eldest and second eldest brothers exchanged a glance, somewhat puzzled.
Liu Lao Er pouted and said, "It's clearly Feng'er who's unfilial, so why is Mother blaming me and my older brother?"
Shen was furious. She turned and walked towards the alley entrance. If her feet hadn't hurt, she would have definitely left her two sons far behind.
"Mother, why are you walking so fast? We haven't found Feng'er and Qingchuan yet..."
Shen was so angry that her vision blurred and she said furiously, "Are you out of your mind? Didn't you hear what that old woman said? Those two ungrateful wretches moved away. Who knows where they went?"
Returning empty-handed, Liu Lao Er was somewhat unwilling. His family only had a few acres of land, and even if his whole family, young and old, spent every day in the fields, they couldn't grow anything worthwhile. Relying on farming, they would work themselves to the bone all year round and still not be able to save a single penny.
But doing business with Feng'er and Qingchuan is different. Feng'er and Qingchuan have only been doing business for a short time, yet they've already bought such a nice brick house. It's a house in town, close to the market, so it must have cost a lot of money.
He was anxious and wished he could find Feng'er and her family immediately, so he quickly caught up with his mother and blocked her way.
“Mother, we’ve come all this way, and if we go back without finding Feng’er, wouldn’t that be a wasted trip? My feet are all blistered, and if I walk back, they’ll probably be ruined. Maybe, maybe…”
Shen said impatiently, "What else? They've already moved away, what else can we do? I'm so old, and I've been running around like crazy trying to get Feng'er to help you two brothers and get you to work with me. My legs are about to break, and my feet hurt so much they don't even feel like my own. You two are so useless, not one of you even offered to carry your mother who can't walk anymore back home. I've raised you for nothing!"
Liu Lao Er immediately fell silent. His legs were almost broken from running, and his feet hurt terribly. He could barely walk on his own, yet his mother still wanted him to carry her. She didn't care about him at all.
With the eldest brother around, even if someone has to carry the load, it should be the eldest brother first!
Liu Laoda's eyelids twitched, and he immediately said, "Mother, why don't we go home first today, and after we rest for a couple of days and recover, we can spend two copper coins to ride in someone's oxcart to town next time, and then we can ask around and find out where Feng'er and Qingchuan have moved to."
"Yeah, Qinghe Town is so big, I don't believe no one knows where they moved to, unless we've seen a ghost!"
The two brothers felt they hadn't prepared for this trip and had exhausted themselves. Next time, they would be better prepared, spend some money to ride in someone's oxcart to town, and even if they had to ask every household in the entire Qinghe Town, they would still find the couple.
No matter what, now that Feng'er and her husband have made money, they shouldn't even think about abandoning their brothers!
Shen was so angry that she sighed deeply. Even though she was unwilling, she had no choice but to drag her tired legs and endure the pain in her feet as she and her two sons walked out of Qinghe Town and headed towards Liujia Village.
Dushui County.
Lin Xiaotang and her fourth uncle bought all the necessary items and prepared all the ingredients; everything was ready.
Shen Qianchuan asked excitedly, "Xiao Tang, what's the first step?"
Lin Xiaotang snapped her fingers and said, "Fourth Uncle, don't panic. Let's knead the dough and let it rest. While the dough is resting, we'll prepare the oil paste, make the sweet bean sauce, and chop some scallions. Once everything is ready, we can start the fire."
Shen Qianchuan was stunned. He was filled with doubt and asked, "Xiao Tang, how do you know all this at such a young age?"
Lin Xiaotang paused, then laughed awkwardly, "Over the past year, I've been delivering food to several restaurants every day with my father or Ninth Brother, and I've bought a lot of breakfasts in several counties. With more experience, I naturally learned how to do it."
Shen Qianchuan is simple-minded and believes everything his niece says. Now, his niece is the person he trusts the most, even his older brother has to take a backseat to her.
He immediately gave a thumbs up and praised, "Xiao Tang is so smart, your fourth uncle admires her!"
"Not at all, Uncle, you flatter me, hehe."
Lin Xiaotang waved her hand, somewhat embarrassed. It wasn't that she was amazing; it was that she had tried to do it in her previous life.
She is an orphan. Apart from occasionally volunteering at the welfare home, she usually watches tutorials and videos on Douyin (TikTok) when she is bored after work and follows them step by step to make food. So, strictly speaking, she knows quite a lot!
She first taught her fourth uncle how to knead the dough, patiently explaining the ratio of water to flour. After kneading the dough, she applied a small amount of oil to the surface of the dough.
The two then peeled, washed, and chopped the scallions, ginger, and garlic, and chopped some green and red peppers into small pieces the size of beans.
Take out more than ten kinds of seasonings, heat oil in a wok, pour the hot oil into the seasonings, stir well, then put the chopped green and red peppers into the wok and stir-fry them briefly, then immediately mix them with the oil-pouring seasonings.
Add water to the pot, stir in some flour water, sprinkle in brown sugar, and finally stir until it becomes thick.
