Chapter 14
"Haha... Sister-in-law, your story is so good! It really relieves hatred!" At this moment, Chen Bao's family only has full admiration for sister-in-law.

Xing'er also covered her mouth and smiled, every time she saw this lotus girl in the past, she could only hide, otherwise she would be teased and embarrassed, but she didn't expect her sister-in-law to let her down today.

After several people returned home, they handed over the money they had earned to Chen Huangshi. Chen Huangshi had a look of disbelief. He really didn't expect that the sweet potato cakes could really be sold for money.A few people didn't tell the elders what happened in the town, for fear that they would worry.

In the next few days, the business of sweet potato cakes was not good. On average, they could only earn more than ten pennies a day, and sometimes they couldn’t sell them when it rained.Li Yao simply became a hands-off shopkeeper, and made sweet potato cakes for Chen Bao's family to sell.

At noon that day, Li Yao was cooking sweet potato soup in the kitchen, and Chen Baojia came in with a basket and a smile on his face: "Sister-in-law, I have some good news for you: Baifu wants two hundred sweet potato cakes tomorrow!"

"Baojia, you said that the Baifu wants two hundred sweet potato pancakes?" Did she hear correctly, how many people would it take to finish two hundred?Li Yao wanted to confirm again.

"Yes, last time the aunt of the Bai Mansion came to me and said that tomorrow is her lady's eighth birthday, and she has invited many guests. Look, this is a deposit!" Chen Baojia smiled and poured the purse onto the table of the Eight Immortals , fifty copper plates fell out.

"But the flour and eggs at home are not enough." Li Yao said.

"Oh! I bought flour and sugar with the money from selling sweet potatoes today, but I forgot to buy eggs." Chen Baojia patted his head, annoyed at his carelessness.

"I'll buy eggs from Tie Niuniang in the east of the village. Her family has several hens." Chen Huang said, she was also happy to see that her daughter-in-law could earn money.

"Okay, take the money, Niang." Li Yao put away the money on the table and put it in Chen Huang's hands.

"Do you want to buy so much?" Chen Huang asked.

"I can make about two hundred cakes after buying it." Li Yao said.

"Okay, let me see if there are still so many of Tie Niu's family." Chen Huang said and went out.

Li Yao got up early because she was thinking about the two hundred cakes, Chen Huangshi and Xing'er also got up to help.

While making it, Li Yao thought, it would be great if there were red beans here, so that you can make sweet potato sesame balls with red bean paste filling in the middle, how delicious it would be. My boyfriend’s favorite dessert in the past was sweet potato sesame balls with bean paste filling. Hey, thinking too far again, Li Yao shook her head.

The sound of the dripping rain outside gave Li Yaoyi a headache. It started to fall yesterday evening, and it has not stopped until now. There is only a coir raincoat and a bamboo hat at home, so it’s no wonder that you don’t get drenched in the rain when you walk into the town. In the end, Chen Bao's family went to the second aunt's house to borrow an umbrella and a bamboo hat, and then walked to the town against the rain.

When Li Yao and Chen Bao's family arrived at the White Mansion, the rain had stopped. The servant who opened the door invited them into the backyard when he heard that they were delivering sweet potato pancakes, and asked them to wait in the yard. That servant please manage The mother-in-law has gone, and the mother-in-law in charge should be the aunt from yesterday.

It may be because of the banquet guests, but at this moment in the backyard, a few maidservants and attendants can be seen busy shuttling around.

"Oh...don't, I don't want to wear it!" A girl's cry came from far away, and the little girl rushed into the yard and bumped into Li Yao.Li Yao staggered and nearly fell down.

"Xin'er, don't run away, it won't hurt in a while!" A young woman in an emerald green veil skirt chased after her with something in her hand.
