C23 Temple Fairs
Mei Jing was shocked by his words and hurriedly denied it, "How could I? How could I be happy? You are practically the guardian of us, the mother and daughter. I wish that you could stay here and help me ward off these ghosts and gods. How could I expect you to leave so quickly? "Young Master Soong, you're thinking too much."
In any case, Soong Liangchen was about to leave. If she went against her will and tried to curry favor with him, she wouldn't lose a single piece of meat.
Mei Jing's heart felt as if it was spring. This evil god was finally leaving!
As expected, after hearing Mei Jing's words, Soong Liangchen felt as if his heart was filled with honey.
This girl had a heart.
Immediately, Soong Liangchen coughed dryly and nodded in satisfaction, "You have some conscience, knowing that I have done you a favor. "Little girl, don't worry. I will only leave to take care of some important matters. I will be back very soon."
Mei Jing's face was a little stiff as she asked in embarrassment, "You probably..." "How long will it take?"
"Ten days to half a month, half a year to a year. There's no fixed time." the man mused.
Mei Jing longed for him to leave her for a year or even ten years, and it would be best if he never came back to disturb her.
However, she didn't dare to say these words out loud. She could only be forced by him to stay close to the stove and sink into deep thought.
Crack
The peach gum in the crucible was roasted, the heat causing the liquid in the pot to become restless.
With a Bala sound, the bubble that was created by the peach gum splashed onto Mei Jing's arm.
She couldn't help but scream as she jumped into Soong Liangchen's arms, "Hiss!" "So hot, so hot!"
"What's wrong with you, girl?" If we get so close, wouldn't it be very dangerous? " Soong Liangchen saw that she was burned, so he immediately grabbed her arm and lowered his head. The warm air sprayed over the burnt area, as if it was going to blow Mei Jing's heart away.
"…"
Mei Jing was embarrassed, but she had nowhere to hide.
Did Soong Liangchen not see that he was scalded because he was pressed too hard?
"I'm fine. For a chef, these small burns are a common occurrence. I'll be fine tomorrow …" Mei Jing hurriedly retracted her hand, but Soong Liangchen held her tightly. His pair of sharp eyes were brewing a storm, as if he wanted to swallow her up.
"Are you the cook? You are a woman! "It's not good to be a cook, you know." Soong Liangchen didn't look down on the chef, but he felt that Mei Jing was too petite to be a cook.
Especially this little girl. Although she was thin and thin, her appearance was exquisite. She should have been raised to be a young lady in the kitchen, instead of cooking oil in the kitchen!
Mei Jing became a bit angry when she heard his words. "What's wrong with a woman?" What's wrong with being a cook? Why are you wearing tinted glasses to look at people! Forget it, I'm not going to explain so much to you. If you want to leave, then hurry up and leave.
After saying that, the girl flipped the peach gum in the crucible and went back to her room.
Soong Liangchen, who was outside the house, narrowed his eyes. He couldn't help but guess in his heart if his tone was too harsh.
He wasn't looking down on the chef, but he felt that Mei Jing should have a better identity …
Anyway, she was getting angry. Let's explain it to her after things have been settled for a while.
As Soong Liangchen thought about this, two silhouettes appeared from afar. It was Soong Goudan and Faang Qingyu.
"General, news of the fake Dragon and Phoenix Seals has already been spread out. Those people really can't hold themselves back anymore."
Soong Liangchen glanced at the room, pursed his lips, turned around and walked away, "Let's go!"
"Yes sir!"
There were no longer any sounds coming from outside the house. Only then did Mei Jing walk out with a slightly different expression.
"What? Leaving just like that? There's not even a single apology …" Forget it! "At that time, if you dare come to my house again, I'll kick you out with a broom!" As Mei Jing thought of this, she walked over to the stove and started to play with the peach gum sauce. This was the only thing she could rely on to earn money with her life on the line, she couldn't let Soong Liangchen cook it up for her!
Half a day later, Mei Jing's Ginger peach gum Jam, Plum Blossom Jam, and Orange Sauce were all cooked and placed into a small jar.
Each jar weighed about half a pound, and of course she also had a few small jars of 'trial-and-taste samples' to advertise.
Mei Jing planned to sell each jar of peach gum s at fifty gold coins. As for the Plum Blossom Jam, Orange Sauce and other common ingredients, the price was already very high at thirty gold coins. The reason why she made the jam market was mainly because no one around Hundred Flowers Town would make the jam, so it was very likely that she was the first person to lead the flow of the jam!
Two days later, the big bazaar that Mei Jing had been waiting for finally arrived.
The big bazaar, also known as the Three Qing temple fair, was the best day to make money every two months.
All the villagers were carrying the game they had hunted in the past two days and were rushing to the Three Purities Temple to sell it.
Mei Jing also woke up early in the morning. Mei Lili touched her wrist and felt the heat coming from it. She couldn't help but look in the direction of Soong Liangchen's house. Just what was wrong with her? In just a day, she couldn't help but think of that scumbag?
Humph! It was best she didn't come back, otherwise, she would beat Soong Liangchen up!
"Jing, hurry up and get up. If you're late, you won't be able to get a spot at the temple fair." Madame Rong urged.
"Ai!" "I know!" Mei Jing shook her head and threw Soong Liangchen out of her mind. She hurriedly put on her tattered cotton jacket, put on her shoes and socks and went out to wash up with cold water.
After she had a simple bowl of congee and dried radish, she and Madame Rong each went to the Three Purities Temple with a basket full of jams on their backs.
On the way, Madame Rong couldn't help but exclaim, "Jing, mother has a hunch that our jam will sell for a good price. As expected, mother's Jing is the personal disciple of the Kitchen King. Even some plum blossoms can make such delicious food."
"Phew!" Whoosh! Mother, stop flattering me! "Why would this bazaar be held at the Three Purities Temple? The temple is located at the top of the mountain!" Mei Jing, who was looking forward to making money, was now out of breath. What made her break down was that she had walked with Madame Rong for so long, but they had only reached the halfway mark?
Looking again, it was fine. Maybe he was injected with chicken blood, but he wasn't tired at all.
But after thinking about it, it made sense. Madame Rong was even more of a horse in front of the Mei Family, and her physical labor was nothing to her, not to mention such a small mountain path!
"Because there are a lot of people passing by the Three Qing Temple! Also, many ladies and ladies like to come here to petition for a shrine. " Madame Rong explained with a smile. Looking at Mei Jing's exhausted appearance, she quickly extended her hand. "Jing, let mother carry this basket. Little girl, you are just too weak. Don't shatter the jam when the time comes, otherwise, we would really have to go to the temple! "
Mei Jing initially didn't want to make Madame Rong work that hard, but when she thought about it, what Madame Rong said made sense. Mei Jing initially didn't want Madame Rong to work that hard, but when she thought about it, Madame Rong's words made sense.
"Mother, please slow down. It's been hard on you!" Mei Jing put the basket on the ground.
Madame Rong carried one on her back and carried a basket in her hand. In her hands, over forty pounds of sweet jam was not a problem at all! This also made Mei Jing feel a lot more at ease.
The mother and daughter duo had worked hard for a long time. Finally, after half an incense's time, they had safely arrived at the Three Pure Temple.
