“I have a good idea,” Jiang Yue said to Xue Yan in a low voice.
Xue Yan nodded and didn’t ask further.
She had always been direct and didn’t directly say what to do. She only said this one sentence and didn’t say anything else. It was obvious that this wasn’t the right time to say this.
The two of them looked at Li Qingshu and Xue Erfu chatting happily. As they were talking, Xue Dafu said to Xue Erfu, “You guys should go and tell Jin Shan and the others, or they’ll get anxious too. Erfu, tell your cousin to come with us tomorrow and see if anyone is willing to buy the oil from your cousin’s oil mill long-term. It wasn’t easy for the oil mill to open again, and if it can’t sell the oil it produces in the future, how can it continue to operate?”
“Okay!” Xue Erfu quickly agreed.
Then, he went to his uncle’s house with Li Qingshu and his parents. Jinshan and the others were all at his uncle’s house. They were all anxious.
Xue Yan wanted to follow them, but Jiang Yue stopped him and whispered to him, “We’ll go later.”
Xue Yan knew that Jiang Yue had something to do, so he nodded.
Together with Xue Yan, Jiang Yue followed Xue Dafu and the others into the courtyard. When they reached the stove, Xue Sifu and Li Hehua didn’t leave the courtyard, but they understood what everyone was saying just now. They also knew that there was a solution to the problem, so they only said a few words and ignored the matter. Instead, they focused on the candy in the pot.
The candy was already cooked. It was dark brown in color. When the temperature cooled down a little and it wasn’t so hot, it could be pulled into a white malt candy.
Xue Dafu and the others didn’t go with them to Xue Darong’s house because they had to help out with the roll of caramels. Xue Sifu and Li Hehua were too busy tending to their own chores.
He didn’t need Xue Yifu’s help. Xue Yifu had his own matters to attend to, and the work that the workshop needed to do couldn’t be delayed any longer. Xue Yifu had been busy with this every day recently. He wanted to finish things as soon as possible so that the workshop could start building as soon as possible. By then, his family could earn money by processing rice for others.
Jiang Yue looked at the dark brown caramels in the pot and then went to find a clean round bowl with Xue Yan. The round bowl was quite small and they placed it on the stove.
Then, Jiang Yue looked up at Xue Sifu, who was much taller than her, and said, “Please, I would like to have some…”
“You want to eat it? Alright, alright.” Xue Sifu had always doted on children the most. He thought that Jiang Yue wanted to eat, so he quickly filled a full bowl of candy for her, not caring if she could eat that much.
Jiang Yue wanted to say that she didn’t need so much, but she thought that she could give some of the things she made to Xue Da, so she kept quiet.
The candy in the round bowl was just cooked and was still very hot, so it couldn’t be touched by hand. Jiang Yue held the round bowl of candy to the side and let its temperature drop to a temperature that could be touched by hand.
The weather wasn’t cool and it would take some time for the temperature to drop. Jiang Yue and Xue Yan decided to visit their uncle’s house first.
Before she left the courtyard, she heard the discussion in her family.
“Why did Jiang Yue put the sugar there?”
“I didn’t see her eat. She probably has something to do.”
“Don’t touch it. Jiang Yue put it there.”
Jiang Yue felt that her family was getting to know her better and better. Although they couldn’t understand her immediately like Xue Yan, at least they tried to make sense of it and accepted her for who she is.
