She could ask Yuezheng Xiao to find a carpenter who could make some silver or bronze candy models to shape the candies and future potential cakes.
The more Qiao Xuan thought about this, the more motivated she was.
Seeing her sparkling eyes, Shao Yunduan could not help but smile and nod. “Your ideas are never bad!”
Qiao Xuan chuckled and exchanged a look with him. “I think so too!”
The two of them smiled at each other.
Qiao Xuan picked some tomatoes for stewing. She made a jar of ketchup, and asked Ms. Xu to yeast the pasta. She was going to make ketchup with egg noodles.
Ketchup was a very good thing. She could save some to make sugar-coated ribs or braise the tofu.
The sweet and sour ketchup was added with eggs and mixed into the noodles, which provided great texture and it was really good for the stomach.
It was really lively at the first section of the family, whilst the second section of the family was having problems.
Due to the heavy rain, everyone was quite free at home.
Ms. Niu was bored and decided to clean up the room a little.
However, she found that the five liang she had hidden earlier was gone.
Ms. Niu was a very sneaky person. She never hid her money in one place. So she was very startled when she saw the money missing. She checked around and found that everything else was still available. So she let out a sigh of relief.
However, she felt so heart-broken thinking of the missing money.
She always hid things well, and she never leafed through her hidden things in the room, otherwise she would have thought of this earlier.
She suddenly thought of Ms. Zhang.
Especially when Ms. Zhang kept asking her for two liang of money, saying that her brother’s wife was going to give birth and needed money…
Ms. Niu did not agree to give her any.
Ms. Zhang always sneaked things home and Ms. Niu hated her for her small moves. She would never loan her any money.
Also, Ms. Zhang never returned any money she had borrowed!
“This bitch! How dare she steal my stuff?!”
Ms. Niu rushed to Ms. Zhang.
Ms. Zhang did not admit to it initially, but after being scolded, she had to admit in tears. “My brother’s wife gave birth to a baby, and we are too poor. You don’t even want to loan me anything! I had no choice, please, forgive me! I will never do that again!”
Ms. Niu kicked Ms. Zhang to the ground.
“You will never do it again? You will always do it, given another chance! My children need money for their marriages, and we need money for our family. How dare you steal money to support your own family! I will make my son divorce you!”
Ms. Zhang cried. “Don’t, Mom. I really won’t do that again!”
Ms. Zhang was very scared. But she did not regret a thing.
She felt lucky.
When she stole the money and took it home, her parents and brother were all cheerful. They kept praising her for being capable. That made her feel so satisfied and gratified. She believed that she had done a good deed!
Her brother was the only son of the family and he needed to be treated well..
