“As I said, if I buy something, I’ll buy one for each of us. We have sold two hundred bowls of cold jelly today. Apart from the cost, there were still 300 coins left, enough for each of us buying a cloth. Ma, come and choose one each for Baoshan and Baofeng as well.”

“Then, then we’re going to spend all the money we’ve made today, aren’t we?” asked Xiao Baozhu.

But Ye Xiaoxian said, “We might as well earn it back after we spend them all. You have to earn money to make money, not just by saving them. Let’s all get up earlier tomorrow. Ma and Baozhu, you make the cold jelly and I’m going to make the pancakes.”

“Oh, no wonder you taught Baozhu so carefully of how to make the cold jelly this morning. It turns out that you are trying to make her master this craft!” said Li Hongmei who was suddenly enlightened.

Xiao Baozhu felt somewhat ashamed when she heard this.

She thought Ye Xiaoxian was trying to slack off by teaching her how to make cold jelly but she didn’t expect that Ye Xiaoxian not only tried to teach her a craft but was going to buy new clothes for her.

Li Hongmei had been choosing cloths for some time and suddenly said, “Hey, little Ye, though I can choose cloths for Baofeng but how am I going to choose one for Baoshan? Baoshan is your husband and you should do this job, right?”

Ye Xiaoxian. “…”

The manager of the cloth shop looked not bothered when Ye Xiaoxian and the other two came in since they looked so shabby indeed. He then listened to what they were talking about and heard that they were going to buy several cloths and in this case, he began to become hospitable.

“Young lady, are you going to choose cloths for your husband? I have quite a few for young misters like this light blue one. Or this yellow one, which matches the one you just chose for yourself.” The manager was beaming with joy.

Ye Xiaoxian didn’t enjoy his idea at all so she chose the light blue one.

The manager asked again, “And what is your mister’s height? And how big is he? I’ll have a rough calculation of the cloths he needs.”

“…” Ye Xiaoxian recalled the strapped figure of Xiao Baoshan and her heart fluttered all of a sudden.

She then told herself, ‘Ye Xiaoxian, stop those foolish reflections. You’re not allowed to imagine anything to do with Xiao Baoshan.’

“He’s roughly that tall and that wide,” said Ye Xiaoxian.

The manager said in surprise, “Then your mister is really tall. You seldom find such big men in this town.”

Ye Xiaoxian didn’t say anything but Li Hongmei chipped in, “You’re right there. My son had been in army before. He is a big guy and his muscles are like, so hard. He is as strong as an ox.”

“Then your daughter-in-law must be really happy.”

“Of course, ha-ha…”

Ye Xiaoxian. “…”

…

When they got out of the cloth shop, they went to buy some white flour, some walnuts, groundnut kernels, sesame, salt, oil and pork etc.

Li Hongmei was surprised. “Little Ye, why did you buy so much stuff?”

“As we’re doing business, we have to at least make a hundred pancakes to sell.”

Li Hongmei thought, ‘Do you guarantee that you can sell all of these in one day?”

But she saw that Ye Xiaoxian was being all confident and relaxed, Li Hongmei dared not speak too much. Ye Xiaoxian had her own thoughts after all and it was she who led them to make money by selling cold jelly so Li Hongmei thought that she had better listen to little Ye in this family.

Li Hongmei dared not put it boldly but Xiao Baozhu was not afraid so she said openly, “Sister-in-law. How about you making some pancakes for us tonight and let us try them first to see if they’re tasty or not?”

“No problem. We don’t have to cook other dishes tonight. Let’s just make some pancakes with porridge for dinner.” Ye Xiaoxian smiled.
