Chapter 239 - 239: Don’t Value Fame and Fame Too Much
After all, she was not sure if the dumplings with salted duck egg filling would be liked by people, and the excess egg white was also difficult to deal with. In order not to eat egg white for every meal for a period of time, she only made twenty salted duck egg yolk rice dumplings.
As for how to distribute it, it was simple. One for each family. If they did not like it, it would not be wasted.
“I’ll eat them.” Chu Heng knew that Ye Muyu liked to cook. Seeing her helpless expression, he did not want her mood to be affected by these reasons, so he spoke calmly.
“You really like it?” Ye Muyu hesitated.
“It’s not bad with porridge. You just have to make it.” Chu Heng looked at her and said frankly.
Ye Muyu saw his serious expression and his usual way of speaking. She knew that he was not joking, so she became more interested.
“Alright, I won’t stand on ceremony when I cook in the future.”
Ye Muyu did not plan to make rice dumplings anymore. When she would send them to someone else’s house, they would give them the ones they made too. It was an exchange. In this way, she felt that her family would have to eat rice dumplings during this period of time.
“Yes.” Chu Heng ate a salted duck egg filling, then took a red bean filling, jujube paste filling, and purple sweet potato filling.
They others were all sweet ones. Although the savory ones were not too bad, Chu Heng had a sweet tooth. Naturally, the savory ones could not compare to the sweet ones.
On the other hand, Chu Jin ate two fresh meat filling rice dumpings and one salted duck egg rice dumpling. He did not take the sweet ones.
“Mother, I want to eat dumplings with meat filling in the future. I told you that as long as it’s meat, it’s delicious no matter where you put it.” Chu Jin started burping after eating three of them. Ye Muyu had deliberately made them small, but she had made them with a lot of fillings.
It was small and tasted good. The main thing was that she was afraid they would not be able to finish them.
“There’s more if you like to eat. Don’t eat too much. Go out and play for a while. In the afternoon, I’ll get Zhang Shu to send you to the county to sell goods with your Uncle Chu Xing.”
Chu Xing’s family had already set off for the county. They went out to reserve a seat before dawn.
Today was the first day, but most of them were preparing gifts at home, so it would only be lively in the afternoon.
The female arts competition would also start in the afternoon, and the county office would be even livelier then.
However, Chu Xing was used to doing business and knew the importance of seizing a spot. If he really waited, he was afraid that he would not be able to squeeze in.
There were many things to sell, so it was lively. There were streets specially designated by the government for stalls.
“Mother, I understand.” Chu Xing got up and ran away with Zhang Cong to play with the other children.
Chu Ziluo ate a red bean filling rice dumpling and helped Ye Muyu clean up the table.
“Mother, I’m a little nervous.” Although Chu Ziluo was a little afraid of Chu Heng, she still hugged Ye Muyu coquettishly.
Ye Muyu patted her back. “Don’t be afraid. It’s just a competition. Just do what you know how to do. Even if you don’t get a place, you’re still the best girl in our hearts.”
“Besides, you’re still young. It’s fine if you don’t get a ranking. Your Sister Qingxiang is engaged and wants to be more outstanding and make her husband’s family think highly of her.” Ye Muyu knew that this child must have been influenced by Chu Qingxiang. It could not be helped. Any child would be envious when they saw someone outstanding.
Ye Muyu did not want Ziluo to put too much importance on fame and fortune, so she just had to face it calmly.
“Mother, if I don’t perform well, it won’t be easy for me to find a husband… At that time, you would definitely have a headache. I don’t want my mother to have a headache.” Chu Ziluo’s voice was muffled..
