Chapter 717 Chapter Seventeen Seventeen The Way to Control People
After a busy morning, by the time Zhang's mother-in-law arrived, Du Shi had already made five or six kinds of small balls and put them in ice cubes to cool down. The remaining pumpkin puree, sweet potato puree, and yam puree had just been steamed and put into the pot.
Let cool.
"It's so early for you. It's me who came late. I'm really sorry." The person sent was Mrs. Deng, who was also a close friend of Zhang Yi. I heard she was an old man who had been with her all the time.
As Mrs. Deng said, she blessed Baiyun River and said, "Bless you."
This is the person the mistress values and she is also Kogoro-kun's mother. She may not know what will happen in the future, so she has to be more polite.
"You're welcome." Bai Yunxi smiled gently, not caring about her thoughts.
When going out to do business, being friendly and making money, as long as people are diligent, other things can be ignored.
Mrs. Deng stood up, rolled up her sleeves, walked to Mrs. Du, and said with a smile,
"Ms. Du, if I need to do something, just give me your instructions. On weekdays, I am an old lady and I stay in the house. I have never done this. If I do something wrong, I just want to correct it."
When Du Shi heard others being polite to her, she felt a little restrained.
"Mrs. Deng, you're welcome. Actually, there's nothing to do. I'll just crush these steamed pumpkins and sweet potatoes into puree later."
"Okay, leave this job to me, Mrs. Du will just go and do other things." Mrs. Deng looked at the basket of pumpkins and sweet potatoes spread out to dry, and agreed.
Before setting off, the master made it clear that the Bai family, who were making a living, were not prepared to spy on the people. The Zhang family would just run the shop and do the work.
Don't explore anything that involves secrets. Whenever there is a conflict, hold her accountable.
On the way here, she had already positioned herself. She was just a handyman. She just kept her head down and worked. She asked less, talked less and inquired less.
Listening to Mrs. Deng's inner thoughts, Bai Yunxi raised her eyebrows. It must be said that Zhang Yiren was really good at training people.
When she had the chance, she would like to give the Zhang family some advice on how to control people.
After all, she is a native and knows how to train people. As an outsider, she cannot always be unconventional, and it is easy for others to regard her as an alien.
Seeing them busy at work, Wenyou had already rinsed and washed the small flower bowls she had prepared, put them in piles in wooden buckets, and soaked them in ice water.
Baiyunxi watched them busy, turned around and came out. Watching the sun rise slowly, when the temperature came up, Xiaosi ran over with a big basket on his back.
"Mom, I found Ruo leaves and picked a big basket, enough for today."
Bai Yunxi looked at the Ruo leaves in the basket and nodded, "It's very well done. Send it in and wash it. I'll teach you how to fold it into a small bowl later. The ice bowl filled with Ruo leaves can be taken away by the guests."
The small flower bowls cost two cents each. If the guests take them away, it will only increase the cost of the ice bowls.
She also suddenly thought of zong leaves, so she asked Xiao Si to find out where the zong leaves grew and pick some back. Not only could the guests take them away to eat, but the color would also be nice.
"Mom, I also discovered that there are reeds by the river outside the city. They grow well, but they are not as wide as the leaves of Ruo. I picked a few pieces. Can you try to fold them into a bowl later?"
Baiyunxi looked at the dozen or so reed leaves in the basket,
"Let's wash them together. The reed leaves are long and slender. Although they cannot be folded into a bowl, they can be folded into a small boat, which can still hold things."
"Hey~, I knew there was nothing that my mother couldn't handle." Xiao Si smiled and flattered her, then turned around and went into the shop to wash the leaves.
"Oh, you must be Shiro-kun of the Bai family. I can do this kind of work."
While talking, Mrs. Deng had already taken over the task of cleaning the leaves.
"Are you Aunt Deng? I remember you. We don't need to be so polite with each other. We don't have so many rules in the countryside, and we usually have to work at home."
Xiaosi smiled softly, picked up the bucket and poured it into the big basin, "The bucket is heavy and Aunt Deng can't carry it. Let's clear the leaves together."
"Oh, my God, you are indeed a scholar's mother. You have raised your son so well. Today, I am an eye-opener."
Mrs. Deng watched Xiaosi throw the salt into the basin, roll up his sleeves and start working. She was amazed in her heart. Now she finally realized why the master valued the Bai family. Look, they are so popular.
From the moment she entered the house until now, she has never felt looked down upon by anyone. It can only mean that the Bai family has good tutors and good character.
"Aunt Deng can just call me Xiaosi. My mother usually calls me that." While cleaning the leaves, Xiaosi reminded her with a smile.
"I don't dare to offend you, old lady. I'd better call you Shiro-kun, right?"
Their master's favorite pupil is the young man's brother, and there is no telling where he will end up in the future, so she doesn't dare to be careless.
When Bai Yunxi came in, he saw the two of them working together, talking and laughing.
She picked up four Ruo leaves, folded two of them together and held them in the palm of her hand, folded them in half at one third, connected them with the other two Ruo leaves, and folded them in the same way.
The four Ruo leaves were twisted and folded a few times in Bai Yunxi's hands. After a while, a small square bowl appeared.
"Okay, it's green, beautiful, and cost-effective."
Xiaosi looked at the Ruo leaf in her mother's hands for a moment, turning into a small square bowl, her eyes widened.
"Mom, you are so awesome, do you really think this will not leak?"
"Of course, I used a double layer of Ruo leaves folded in half at the bottom to ensure that there is no leakage after a cup of smoothie."
Of course, after all, it is an environmentally friendly bowl with folded leaves. It is enough to last for an hour.
"Mom, leave it to me, I'll be responsible for folding the bowl." Xiao Si looked at the novelty, picked up the bamboo leaf and looked at my mother.
"The old woman also followed suit, and after learning it, she was just good enough to start with." Mrs. Deng looked at the stacked square bowls, and after being surprised, she also picked up the Ruo leaves.
Ruo Ye and the others often eat rice dumplings during the Dragon Boat Festival, but they never thought they could use them as bowls.
Seeing that the two of them were serious, Bai Yunxi was not stingy either. He picked up the Ruo Ye and started doing it step by step.
"When folding the corners, you need to fold the leaves more to prevent water leakage. Of course, the technique should be gentler so as not to crack them. The four folded corners are the same..."
Xiaosi and Mrs. Deng made two of them together with Bai Yunxi. After finding the feel, they became more and more comfortable with folding. Especially Mrs. Deng, who is used to doing manual work. After she became proficient, she was faster than Bai Yunxi and her son.
Most of the large pot of Ruo leaves was gone in the blink of an eye, and there were stacks of folded Ruo leaf bowls in the basket.
Just when a few people were busy, a chuckle came from the door, "Looking at you working so hard, it seems that I am too lazy."
Zhang Yiren appeared at the door with her daughter. Looking at the busy scene in front of her, she stepped in.
Looking at the pots of colorful pellets and fruit puree placed on the counter, I felt appetizing. When they touched the small green square bowl folded in their hands, they couldn't help but scream in surprise.
"Yunxi, just seeing how hard you work, our ice bowl will definitely sell well."
