Chapter 115: I'll Teach You
Hearing that, Qiao Sheng looked at Shi Jin and said, "You little brat, when did you start worrying about my affairs? The shop can open any day, but the autumn outing isn't something you can just go on any day; if I don't go, what will you do if you start crying?"
"I won't."
Shi Jin snorted.
Xiao Shitou replied with a serious face, "Mother, I won't either."
Qiao Sheng laughed.
"You think I'm really afraid of this? I just want to accompany you on the autumn outing, because I've never gone on one in my life."
Shi Jin raised an eyebrow: "So you actually want to go yourself."
"You can think that too."
Qiao Sheng didn't argue with Shi Jin.
She asked them to clarify.
The next day, Qiao Sheng told Qiao Hushui and the others about this.
Qiao Xuehua felt it would be a waste not to open the shop, and she suggested, "Big sister, why not make some braised meat and keep it, then we'll sell it for you at the shop?"
That way we could earn some money, right?
Qiao Hushui and the others also thought Qiao Xuehua's suggestion was good, because they all knew Qiao Sheng not only could make braised peanuts but also braised meat.
"I'll teach you."
The braising liquid Qiao Sheng made before can be reused; there's no need to remake it, so they'll find it easy to learn.
"Will this work?"
Lan Yue Niang was a bit uneasy.
Qiao Sheng said with a smiling face, "Mother, don't worry, it's really simple; Dad and the others will definitely be able to learn it, but you shouldn't learn it for now—the smell of the braised flavors is too strong, I'm afraid you won't be able to handle it."
"Hmm."
Lan Yue Niang knew Qiao Sheng was doing it for her own good, so she followed her advice.
Qiao Sheng not only taught Qiao Hushui and the others how to make braised pork, braised peanuts, and braised goose, but also taught them how to make spicy mixed vegetables; this way there are both meat and vegetarian options, so even if she isn't at the shop, customers will have more choices when they come.
Now the orders from the various academies total sixty-five portions, meaning that even if no customers come, they can still sell sixty-five portions of food each day.
Some orders are for fried rice, some are for set meals.
Fried rice and set meals aren't actually that difficult, but for a while Qiao Lanhua and the others couldn't master the heat control, so Qiao Sheng thought she would talk with them this afternoon.
For the two days she wasn't there, she sent them braised meat rice to eat, of course with a side dish, which was the spicy mixed vegetables.
Qiao Sheng introduced two price points: one at eight wen, the other at twelve wen; the dishes are the same, only the portions differ.
The rice portion stays the same.
Everyone had no objections.
Communication went well.
Qiao Sheng bought quite a few things, both food and supplies, planning to bring them for the autumn outing.
The day of the autumn outing arrived in the blink of an eye.
Before coming to Feng Ji Private School, Qiao Sheng didn't know the situation of the other students; only after arriving did she realize that none of their family members had come—only she had.
"Qiao girl, would you like to ride in a carriage with us later?"
Na Lan Ruo Lan was dressed today in a green outfit, giving off a feeling of tranquil serenity.
Anyway, she just looked very comfortable.
Qiao Sheng hadn't spoken yet.
Na Lan Ruo Lan then said, "Shi Jin and Xiao Shitou will also ride in a carriage with us; on the way we can chat while heading to our destination."
After she said that, she looked at Qiao Sheng with anticipation.
How could Qiao Sheng still say words of refusal?
She readily agreed, "Sure!"
The other students took different carriages.
If it were just to pull people, three carriages would be enough, but since everyone was bringing stuff, and Na Lan Ruo Lan's group also brought a lot, they used five carriages to pull.
The carriages hadn't been going for long.
Na Lan Ruo Lan looked at Shi Qi and said, "Shi Qi, what are you standing there for? Go get something to eat for Xiao Shitou and the others."
