Chapter 781: Making Meat Puffs
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Su Binglan said, “I just happened to bring some ingredients. We can cook and have lunch here. I brought many ingredients such as eggs, meat, seasonings, etcetera. I’ll make meat puffs.”
She washed her hands and prepared to cook while Ji Xingye looked on, dazed. He was surprised at how down-to-earth she was.
Lin Yishi was at a loss and did not know what to say when Su Binglan started making lunch. He wanted to say something but could not make a sound.
Soon after, Su Binglan kneaded the dough and then cut the meat before seasoning it. Lin Yishi wanted to help, but Su Binglan said, “You can watch and learn first. If you want to start a small business later, you can do it.”
Lin Yishi had severely injured his leg on the battlefield and could no longer do heavy work. Even if he decided to work at the factory, he probably would not be able to do much.
Therefore, Su Binglan thought he should maybe set up a stall to earn money. After all, he could do that while sitting down. Ultimately, it depended on what Lin Yishi chose.
Lin Yishi became emotional after hearing Su Binglan’s words. He said, “Thank you so much, Your Highness. 1 don’t know what else to say.”
Su Binglan responded, “What I’m doing now was also my brother’s idea. He has always been thinking about you and the other soldiers. You should live well and show my brother your fighting spirit if you want to thank him.”
Lin Yishi felt rejuvenated after listening to the princess’s encouraging words. He felt like he could do anything, even opening a stall to run a small business.
Su Binglan added, “Many people in Su Teng village have set up stalls to earn money. If your products are good, they’ll practically sell themselves. People might even fight to buy your products if they’re excellent.”
Lin Yishi could imagine being successful as he continued to listen. He did not fear hardships as long as he could earn money to give his family a better life.
His wife and son had suffered much over the past few years, and Lin Yishi wanted to earn as much as possible to make it up to them. He also did not want his mother to worry.
Meanwhile, Ji Xingye was amazed as he watched Su Binglan’s busy figure. He felt she could rejuvenate anyone’s fighting spirit with her charisma. Moreover, she was calm and gentle.
Although the house was old and worn, Su Binglan showed no trace of disdain.
She even wiped down the cooking pots naturally. Still, the house was tidier
than most would expect.
The roof would leak whenever it rained. No noblewoman would be willing to visit such a village, let alone cook with a calm expression. However, Su
Binglan differed. She exuded a peaceful and convincing aura instead.
She said, “You must prepare the meat and vegetables well if you want to make meat puffs. Chop the meat finely and then add it to the dough later. It’ll make the end product taste better.”
She explained the steps to Lin Yishi as she spoke. The latter was quick-witted and could remember everything Su Binglan said. Still, he wanted to take notes. He considered setting up a stall when his wife worked at one of the factories.
Lin Yishi regretted not thinking about it before. Even so, he would not have specific skills to open a stall and would not know what to sell. He was not great at cooking, either.
Moreover, Lin Yishi dared not experiment with food because the family barely had any. Even having noodles was a luxury. The family usually prioritized Lin Xiaoxi regarding food.
“Thank you again for everything, Your Highness.”
Su Binglan helplessly said, “You’ve said that too many times, Yishi. There really isn’t a need to thank me. You and the other soldiers have sacrificed much to protect Dingzhou and its people.
“We should be the ones thanking you instead. We should also thank your brother.’
Meanwhile, Lin Yishi’s wife, Madam Cai, returned home. When she reached the entrance, she was shocked to see a carriage. Since she knew none of her relatives had a carriage, she wondered who had visited.
Madam Cai was anxious as she quickly carried the firewood to the door. Her heart raced as she saw the things in the courtyard and two people standing inside.
Madam Cai was stunned when she noticed Ji Xingye’s uniform. She immediately recognized him as a general.
Lin Yishi saw her and hurriedly approached with his walking stick, saying, “You’re home!”
Madam Cai muttered with concern, “l told you to rest. Why are you moving around so much? Don’t fall, okay?”
Immediately after, she realized her husband was smiling widely. She could not remember the last time she saw him so excited. She could only wonder what had happened.
Lin Yishi knew his wife was confused, so he explained, “Let me introduce you. That’s General Xingye and that’s Princess Binglan.”
Madam Cai was shocked and quickly bowed. “Greetings, Princess Binglan and
General Xingye.”
‘Why would such influential people visit our home?’
She motioned to kneel, her legs going weak.
Su Binglan said smilingly, “There’s no need to be so formal, Madam Cai. I’ll let Yishi explain our visit, okay?”
“Honey, Your Highness offered us jobs at a paper mill in Su Teng Village. 1 thought you should work there instead because of my leg injury. Princess Binglan is thoughtful enough to teach me how to make meat puffs.
“l plan to set up a stall to sell meat puffs. We’ll also have a place to stay in Su Teng Village. Your Highness says there will be annual leave and vacations during the New Year. We can return here whenever we want, too.
“We should bring Mother along. Oh, right, Your Majesty treated Mother with acupuncture just now and even gave me medicine for Mother. Your Majesty said Mother will feel better in a few days. Children in Su Teng Village can also attend Blue Mountain Academy.”
Lin Yishi told his wife everything in detail. She was shocked as her eyes widened.
‘Is all that true? Am 1 hallucinating?’
As if he could read his wife’s thoughts, Lin Yishi nodded assuringly at her. Moreover, he knew the princess and the general would never lie to them.
“Thank you, Princess Binglan and General Xingye.” Madam Cai knelt and kowtowed.
“You don’t have to…” Ji Xingye said, “l only accompanied Her Highness here, and Prince Ruozhu was the one who arranged all this. You should thank Her Highness and His Highness, not me.”
Madam Cai was about to say something when Su Binglan gently pulled her up, saying, “You don’t have to thank us, Madam Cai. We’re grateful to your husband and his brother for serving the country.
“My brother and I should care for you and your family. You’ll know what your husband means when you visit Su Teng Village. You don’t have to worry about a thing there..”
