Traveling with warehouses: I raised a brood of little villains

Lin Ruyi strode towards the door, stood inside and asked, "Who is it?"

"Excuse me, is this Mrs. Lin's house? I'm Manager Liu of the Chen Mansion, and I'm here to pick Mrs. Lin to the mansion under the order of our young master." A middle-aged man's voice sounded outside the door, and his tone was quite respectful.

Lin Ruyi had expected that someone from the Chen family was coming, and stepped forward to open the door.

"Guan Liu, I'm Lin Ruyi, thank you for making a trip so early. You go in and sit down first, I'll clean up, and we'll start right away." Lin Ruyi looked at a middle-aged man at the door, neatly dressed, followed by him A boy driving a carriage politely invited two people into the house.

"It's okay, we won't go in and disturb you. We'll just wait for Mrs. Lin at the door. If Mrs. Lin needs anything we can take, you can order it." Liu Kun said politely.

Before coming here, Chen Wenqi specially told them to be more respectful and not to neglect Lin Ruyi.

Although Liu Kun didn't know how respectful a peasant woman was, but after all, it was the young master's order, so he could only follow it.

Lin Ruyi nodded, and then went into the house to prepare things.

She went to the kitchen to get a basin of water first, and did a quick wash, since there must be no time for food.

Although Chu An'an had already got up early and cooked porridge, but everyone was here, she definitely couldn't let them wait for her to eat before leaving.

So after washing up, she picked up the materials that she had prepared in advance last night and was ready to go.

When she came out with a basket on her back, she saw Chu Jieyi standing in the yard.

"I'm going to the town to make ice powder for the Chen family. I'll come back when I'm done. Take care of the children." When Lin Ruyi passed by Chu Jieyi, she stopped and said to him.

Chu Jieyi glanced at the two men at the door, and then at Lin Ruyi.

"I happen to be going to the town to do some errands, let's go." Chu Jieyi said.

Lin Ruyi froze for a moment, is it such a coincidence?

"You are gone, what about the children?" Lin Ruyi was a little worried about the three children. After all, they were still young, and she was afraid that they would not be safe at home.

"They will take care of themselves, and I will come back after I finish my work." Chu Jieyi said calmly.

Lin Ruyi thinks about it too, the three children are very obedient, as long as they don't go to the river to play in the water, nothing will happen to them.

As soon as she walked to the door with the pannier on her back, Liu Kun immediately arranged for a servant to take the pannier from her back.

"Who is this?" Liu Kun looked at Chu Jieyi who was following them, and asked aloud.

"He is my husband-in-law, and he happens to be going to the town to do some business. He won't go with me, he's just on the same road." Lin Ruyi quickly explained.

Liu Kun nodded, since he had said that, he had no choice but to let Chu Jieyi go to town together in a carriage.

The horse-drawn cart was indeed much faster than the bullock-drawn cart. It seemed that they arrived in the town in half the time.

It was still early, and today was not a market day, so there were a lot fewer people in the town.

When he arrived in town, Chu Jieyi said he was going to do some business, and got off the carriage.

Lin Ruyi went to Chen's house in a carriage, and the carriage stopped directly at the backyard, which is also the door where food is usually delivered.

"Miss Lin, we're here, we can get out of the car." Liu Kun said.

Lin Ruyi quickly got off the carriage, and followed Liu Kun into the door. The servant wanted to drive the carriage to park, so Lin Ruyi carried the basket on her own.

Entering through the back door, within a few steps, I heard many people talking, and I could smell the smoke from the chimney, as well as the smell of food, presumably in the kitchen.

Turning the corner, I saw more than a dozen people sitting around picking and washing vegetables, and there was the sound of waving spatulas inside.

"Ms. Lin, the young master ordered us to go to the small kitchen over there to make ice powder. There are two helpers over there." Liu Kun continued to take her to the small kitchen.

Lin Ruyi nodded. Anyway, she can do whatever they arrange. After all, she has already got the money, so she just obeys the arrangement.

Soon Liu Kun took her to a quiet yard with a small kitchen inside.

In fact, it's not small, it's bigger than their kitchen, and it has everything in it.

There were two women standing inside, who should be in their 20s.

"Wu Niang, Ying Niang, this is Mrs. Lin, you will learn how to make ice powder with her in a while, you must learn how to do it, the young master will check." Liu Kun said to the two women.

"Yes."

"Yes."

The two women said in unison.

Lin Ruyi took out the things in the basket, and asked them to find two pieces of gauze.

Put in an appropriate amount of ice powder seeds, then tie it up and soak it in water.

Then take out the lime, tell them the ratio, and soak it next to it in advance.

Soak the ice powder seeds for a while, then change to a moderate proportion of water, and start rubbing the ice powder by hand.

At the beginning, the two women were very curious. They had never heard of ice powder at all, and they didn't know what it looked like, so they were very serious throughout the whole process.

When I saw Lin Ruyi rubbed her hands a few times, some transparent things appeared inside, I was very surprised.

Lin Ruyi talked to them while rubbing, and the two of them followed suit.

Originally this was simple, and the two of them studied it very seriously, so they learned it in one go.

After making two pots, one pot weighs about twenty catties, and continue to make the next pot.

This time Lin Ruyi didn't do anything, just watched the two of them do it, reminding them occasionally.

When the second pot was ready, the two of them had fully mastered the technique.

Except for the tiredness of hand rubbing, there is nothing difficult about it.

After making all the two hundred catties of ice powder, Lin Ruyi told them that it is best to freeze them in cold water, so that the taste will be better.

I also taught them how to make sugar, and then just pour it on top of the ice powder.

After these lessons, basically the entire production of ice powder has been completed.

Lin Ruyi made sure that the two of them had fully learned it, so she found Liu Kun.

"Guan Liu, I've already taught them. I still have something to do at home, so I'll go back first, do you think it's okay?" Lin Ruyi asked.

"It's like this, our young master said that when Mrs. Lin is done, she will stay in the mansion for dinner before leaving." Liu Kun said.

Lin Ruyi's breakfast was right, and after rubbing so much ice powder, she was really hungry.

She will walk back in a while, and it will take two hours.

Think about going back after eating, otherwise, the sun is so bright, she is afraid that she will faint from hunger.

"Okay, then I will stop bothering you." Lin Ruyi said politely.

"Miss Lin, you're welcome. Then I'll take you outside to rest for a while, and you can take a seat when the meeting starts." Liu Kun said.

Lin Ruyi nodded and followed Liu Kun.

The two walked towards the front hall, not to mention that the Chen family is really big, they walked for a long time before getting out.

There was a lot of people outside, presumably there were many guests.

Lin Ruyi followed Liu Kun, and suddenly saw a fat figure and a familiar face in front of her, and she stopped in her tracks.

Chen Mansion?

That perverted Mr. Chen's house?
