Chapter 205: Strawberry Preserves
Chapter 205: Strawberry Preserves
Ji Yunyuns final words were about how no one cared about her orchard, and then she left in frustration.
Su Danhong didn't let it affect her. When Mother Ji returned, she saw her daughter had left. .
Sister-in-law said she didn't want to go to my orchard anymore, so she left. Su Danhong respected her mother-in-law, which was why she didnt let Ji Yunyun's intentionally stabbing words affect her.
She bought the malt milk powder and gave it to her mother-in-law. Thus, her being filial was completed. As for whether her mother-in-law wanted to drink it with her father-in-law or give it to someone, it's all up to her mother-in-law's choice. She didnt care what choices were made.
But as for what Ji Yunyun said, Su Danhong told her mother-in-law all of it.
Mother Ji reassured, Don't worry about her, it's not worth getting angry about her.
She could tell that the youngest daughter she and her husband had raised was a white eyed wolf.
Ji Yunyun wanted the malt milk powder, so Mother Ji thought about giving it to her. However, as soon as her daughter turned around, she told her sister-in-law that Mother Ji already gave it to her.
Although she knew that Danhong wouldn't take such small matters to heart, people's hearts were made up of flesh and blood1. Mother Ji herself was really disappointed by her daughter.
Out of everyone in the village, and the surrounding ones, how many daughters from a young age had the privilege of going to school for so many years like her?
Aside from these things, there was how she recently got married and didn't discuss the dowry with them. Yet, Mother Ji and her husband gave her 300 yuan.
300 yuan was a lot!
Just look at what happened when Jianwen ended up borrowing 500 yuan to buy a house. If it wasnt for Danhong taking 400 yuan out back then and giving 200 yuan to each family, and then asking Jianwen to repay only 300 yuan later, would they be able to give out money like this?
This time, she and her husband gave her 300 yuan for their daughter to spend.
In addition, Ji Yunyuns brothers gave her 20 yuan each. It was almost 400 all together.
Just look at how many newly married daughters were treated like this, so why was she acting like that?
Mother Ji felt tired when she thought about it, and she didn't care anymore. Ji Yunyun was already married. Whether it was good or bad, she could handle it herself.
Su Danhong didn't give much of an explanation, but her mother-in-law had an idea of what happened. She and this sister-in-law didnt have anything nice to say to each other. There were some things that didn't need to be explained too clearly.
After taking the strawberries, Su Danhong went down the mountain.
Mother Su had relatively more free time as strawberry season was ending. Thus, she went over for a visit.
She brought a bag of flour for fried dough twists. She fried some up, and they were crispy and smelled really good.
Yan'er and Renren both like it a lot, but unfortunately, Su Danhong didnt allow them to eat a lot of them. Even if they ate a little, they would have to drink honeysuckle tea.
How could they be that fragile? You used to think one dough twist was not enough, Mother Su said with a smile.
They are still young, and it's okay to eat more when they grow up. You can have Jianyun eat the rest when he comes back, Su Danhong said.
Jianyun took Qiqi out? Mother Su asked.
Yes, that kid can't stay at home. Ill let him play around, but after a while, I'll start teaching him to read, Su Danhong said.
Upon hearing this, Mother Su said, But look at how old he is, its not too late to wait for him to be older first.
How could she wait until he was bigger?
However, Su Danhong didn't argue with her mother. She went back to the topic about salted eggs and said, We learned how to make salted eggs with you, and now the eggs are selling really well.
Regular eggs were already selling well, but with the salted eggs, they added a product that tasted good, which made it very easy to sell.
Mother Su smiled and said, Thats good. Now that there are two chicken coops, the eggs should sell well.
Su Danhong went in and took out a jar of strawberry preserves for her mother. I asked my mother-in-law to pick some for me. I made my own strawberry preservers. Mother, please try it.
Mother Su didn't hesitate. She took a toothpick to grab one and ate it. She said, Your technique has improved since you got married. When you lived at home, you didn't do a lot of work.
Everything went as expected for her daughter. After getting married, she did more work, and even learned how to make strawberry preserves.
Then, Mother Su thought about it and quickly said, You can make strawberry preserves and sell them. It definitely tastes good!
Su Danhong didnt consider the idea. The strawberries are selling well, so there is no need to make strawberry preserves.
If the strawberries werent sold out, then they could make some. When strawberry season was over, the preserves would definitely be popular. However, there weren't enough strawberries to make any. Strawberries were sold out every day, so there's no need to bother about it.
Besides, making strawberry preserves was a lot of trouble. She just made it for the elders and the children. She did not want to do the hard work.
If you sell strawberry preserves, the price can be doubled, Mother Su suggested.
I dont want to put that much effort into it, it's too hard, Su Danhong said.
Mother Su hoped she would change her mind, and stressed, If you didnt marry Jianyun, who dotes and pampers you, would you still be living this good life while being so lazy? You have it good!
Su Danhong was a dead pig not afraid of boiling water2. I know, I know, I can live this good life because its all thanks to your son-in-law, okay?
Mother Su laughed and said, I'll bring the jar back later to give my grandchildren a taste.
Mother, won't you stay for a few days? Su Danhong asked.
I can't. Mother Su shook her head.
Okay, take two jars back. You can keep one for yourself to eat, Su Danhong said.
How is Su Anbang doing at the reservoir? Mother Su asked.
Jianyun said he is hardworking and always ready to work. The person you chose is good. Su Danhong smiled.
Su Danhong didnt have a lot of hardworking relatives like Su Anbang.
Mother Su smiled back and said, He and his wife just separated from the main family. His wife is about to give birth, so she can't work hard. However, Su Anbang is indeed a good worker. Otherwise I wouldn't have recommended him.
He can do his work, and when his wife has the child, he can take a break. Then he can work for the first half of the day and leave early to take care of his wife for the rest of the day. We will still pay him, Su Danhong said.
Recently, the area around the reservoir was dug up to plant fruit saplings. Ji Jianyun had bought them all and placed them on one side of the reservoir. He often went to supervise the workers, who were digging the land quickly.
Su Danhong was already planning when she would go over to spread the spiritual spring water.
When Ji Jianyun brought back the fruit saplings, it was left overnight at their home. She watered them, but it would be better to water them again.
How can that happen? When I gave birth to your second brother, I had to get out of bed and feed the pigs just three days after giving birth, Mother Su said.
It used to be like that before, but its the present now, Su Danhong defended. Mother, if you have the time, you can also go over and take a look at things. You are an elder, so you can walk around there.
