Rich Peasant Girl: The General's Wife Has Space

Chapter 112 Trying to Make Potato Flour

Xiao Wan met Zhang Liang's admiring gaze and turned her head away somewhat embarrassedly.

I am just drawing on the wisdom of later generations, it is nothing.

Xiao Wan told him to go to Xiao Tiequan's family in town to customize these things. The quality and workmanship of Xiao Tiequan's things are indeed very good.

Although Xiao Wan hated Zhao Cuihua, she was still a trustworthy person. It was because of him that she was able to borrow money from the Liu family to pay for her medical treatment. Xiao Wan thought she had to make a clear distinction.

Thinking about it this way, I couldn't help but think of the bad things Zhao Cuihua and my cousin had done.

Xiao Wan only hopes that Liu Jingui can focus on raising ducks and stop getting involved with married women, otherwise Xiao Tiequan will not let him go.

Zhang Liang took the order and left. Xiao Wan also gave him fifty taels of silver. If it was not enough, he could come back for more. She was not afraid of investment. If she was going to do something, she would do it to her satisfaction. She believed that she would always make it back.

She also asked the workshop to experiment with making potato flour. Potato flour is much easier to make than vermicelli, and it is easy to make using potato starch.

Xiao Wan made potato noodles with different flavors that night for her family to try.

Modern potato noodles are Xiao Wan's favorite, and they come in various flavors. Today, Xiao Wan made four flavors: soy sauce, tomato, old-style pickled cabbage, and spicy.

Potato noodles are very simple to cook. Just add some bean sprouts, shredded tofu or tofu and some green vegetables. The key is the sauce.

Considering that the sauce needed to be kept confidential, Xiao Wan decided to have Zhang Liang or Tian Shouzhong deliver the sauce to the store every other day.

After the potato noodles are made, the whole family enjoys eating them. The noodles themselves have no taste and rely entirely on seasonings to add flavor.

Bean sprouts are very simple to grow. Xiao Wan will teach Chen Qing and the others how to do it. Then they can just grow soybean sprouts in the store in advance. This saves trouble. Growing green vegetables is also very simple. They can’t even finish eating all the vegetables grown in their own fields.

The bean curd shreds and soybeans are also ordered from Aunt Wang's house. Aunt Wang delivers tofu to Yunkelai every day anyway, so it would be convenient for her to deliver it to her own home in the future.

Sure enough, Aunt Wang was even happier after she found out. Now Aunt Wang's family has also bought a donkey cart. It's not as good as Xiao Wan's, but it's also rare in the village.

With the additional job of supplying goods to Xiao Wan's shop, the family became more well-off.

Aunt Wang's eldest son Shizhu is old and has long passed the school age, so he follows Uncle Wang every day to learn how to drive a cart to deliver tofu. After he has learned it, Uncle Wang will find time to do other things, and the younger son Shitou will follow his brother's cart to school every day.

Aunt Wang and her family simply didn't know how to thank Xiao Wan. Now their son and daughter's future is secured, and the family just needs to work together and move forward.

Xiao Wan smiled and said, "Aunt, if you have nothing to do, just chat with my mother at home about family matters to relieve your boredom. When Shizhu and Shitou grow up, you can wait and enjoy their happiness."

Aunt Wang's eyes widened with smile when she heard this. She and the head of the household were at home listening to their youngest son reading to them when he came back.

Oh, it sounds so good that the couple would wake up laughing in their dreams.

All this is thanks to Xiao Wan, and Aunt Wang visits Xiao's house more frequently.

Many women in the village saw that Aunt Wang benefited from the Xiao family and her son even had money to go to school, so they said many jealous words to her, but Aunt Wang didn't take it to heart.

Like Wan'er said, instead of being angry with them, you might as well grind a few more plates of tofu and sell them!

Seeing that Aunt Wang was unmoved, those people could only disperse in disappointment, but they still honestly started running towards the Xiao family, which made Liu very helpless.

When he saw that the Xiao family had so many servants at their disposal, and that Old Man Xiao was even expanding the house with Tian Shouzhong, his jealousy and eagerness grew even more intense.

They are smart and know that it is useless to be instigated by others and be jealous. It is better to get closer to them. They can also win the favor of the Xiao family and gain some benefits.

Looking at the various expressions of the people, Liu couldn't help but sigh that when her family was poor and down and out, she never saw so many people coming to visit.

But he didn't want to offend the villagers who came to his door, so he had to patiently send them away one by one.

After all, she is not blind and deaf. When Xiao Zhener came back, many people gossiped about her behind her back, but now they are coming to her house, which makes her feel happy.

As for the benefits, haha, if I have money, why don’t I earn it myself? Why do I have to give it to you, the person who spreads bad things about my daughter?

You also want to work in my workshop, and let my family sign a contract with you to collect eggs. You just go home and wait.

When the women saw Liu's cold personality, they realized that they had listened to people's instigation and said bad things about Xiao Zhen'er. It was too late to regret it now.

People are often strict with others and lenient with themselves. Women feel that they are being instigated, so they blame the mistakes on others to make themselves feel better.

If we were to talk about the person who instigated this, it would definitely be Zhao Cuihua, the most gossipy woman in Dahuaishu Village. The other women all went to Zhao Cuihua's house.

Ever since Wang was thrown into prison, Zhao Cuihua and Li Chunhua also reformed and went to work in a workshop, no longer joining in on the gossip. Without her teammates, she felt very lonely.

Seeing the Xiao family getting better and better, Zhao Cuihua was jealous to the point of going crazy. The whole family dressed decently and cleanly, expanded their house and bought servants. She simply couldn't stand it.

She yelled at Xiao Tiequan to buy her a servant as well. Xiao Tiequan thought he had misheard, but after digging his ears to confirm, he was completely stunned.

My family is just a farmer, why would we hire servants?

Besides, Xiao Tiequan was not at home, and Zhao Cuihua only had to take care of her son and herself. She had all the money in her hands, so why would she hire a servant? So she did not agree.
