The happy little days of the Ye family

Chapter 617 Treasure Hunting in a Small House (4)

Not long after Ye Xilin went out, Mrs. Ye put her hands on her hips and urged everyone to start treasure hunting.

"Just say it, don't stop your hands, look for something quickly."

The remaining six people were scattered in various corners of the room, looking for things and discussing matters in the two shops.

Ye's father came to Ye's mother's side and suggested: "Madam, this braised pork recipe is hidden so secretly, it must be a good thing."

"Let's divide the spices inside into several groups and go to different pharmacies to buy them, so that the recipe will not be leaked easily."

Father Ye is very shrewd. Before he could figure out the specific recipe for braised pork, he started thinking about how to hide the recipe.

Mother Ye fumbled around in the closet, turned around and said with a smile: "My husband, you are right, you really need to buy them separately."

"I don't know when the braised pork will be ready. During this period, I will make some pastries and try them in the two shops."

"Mom, I can make mung bean cake, rice cake and red date cake." Wang Chunyu said happily not far away.

"There is also sweet-scented osmanthus cake. There are a lot of dried sweet-scented osmanthus dried at home. Let me teach you how to make sweet-scented osmanthus cake when you go back."

"Okay, thank you, mother." Wang Chunyu's eyebrows were curved and she smiled very sweetly.

Father Ye nodded, "Four pastries are enough, and you don't have to make too many. The food won't last long, so just make less and make them again after they are sold."

Wang Chunyu thought of another thing, "I just looked carefully at the recipe for the red date cake, and I feel it is a little different from what we usually make."

"I'll go back and try the recipe above. Maybe I can make a more delicious red date cake."

Ye Mu looked at Wang Chunyu with a smile, "Xiaoyu, your cake making is no worse than mine. I'll leave the red date cake to you."

"No problem, leave it to me."

Ye Donglin looked at Father Ye: "Dad, do you buy the same pastries from both shops?"

Father Ye thought seriously, "The most crowded time in the grocery store is in the morning when the women are selling vegetables, while the braised meat shop is more crowded during lunch."

"The two time periods are different, and the people may not be exactly the same, so it shouldn't matter. They both sell the same thing."

"It's all our own business anyway. If the store sells out first, we can just take some from the shop next door and sell them together."

"Okay, then we'll sell them together."

Old Mrs. Ye said with a smile: "All the grain, sugar and flour used to make pastries must be paid to the public. The amount of pastry sold is yours."

As for how the pastries are sold, she doesn't care. Anyway, no matter how many pastries are sold, half of the shop's profits will go to the public.

Ye Mu usually does embroidery, and her hands must be carefully maintained and cannot do too much work, so the pastry making job fell to Wang Chunyu.

Fortunately, Wang Chunyu is good at making pastries and happily took over this important task.

Mr. Ye didn't say anything, but there was always a smile on his lips. Looking at the happy family, I feel that my life has not been in vain.

After a while, everyone had already decided on the pastries and braised pork.

Father Ye and Mother Ye studied the braised pork recipe they found together, carefully considering the dosage of each spice.

Wang Chunyu and Ye Donglin are responsible for the pastries.

Wang Chunyu makes four kinds of cakes every day, rice cakes, red dates, mung bean cakes and osmanthus cakes. The prepared pastries are sold in both shops.

As for the old couple, they can just take care of the home front and leave the dirty work to the young ones.

People are in high spirits during happy events. As soon as they found two food recipes, Ye Donglin found a silver earring in the gap between the foot of the bed and the wall.

Although these silver earrings are light and not worth much, this is the first thing Ye Donglin has found since his treasure hunt.

When Ye Xilin came over, Ye Donglin was having fun holding earrings.

Ye Xilin opened the door and came in with a smile on his face, and then immediately locked the door.

He happily took out all the silver, copper plates and golden beans he found and put them on the table.

"Look at what I found. Is it powerful?" Ye Xilin said proudly. Just by listening to his voice, you could tell how talented this man was.

"Xilin is so awesome." Wang Chunyu looked at Ye Xilin with admiration.

Although Ye Donglin couldn't bear to see this brat being so cool, he had to admit that his little brother was really lucky.

Despite her age, Mrs. Ye walked very fast on her calves. She came to the table in one swift step and happily counted the coins.

"A total of 10 taels, 275 coins, plus two golden beans. Yes, today's harvest is not much different from yesterday."

Ye Xilin was excited and quickly urged everyone to check out other places.

"We've finished searching for all the rooms in the house. Let's go check out the front and back yards."

"There is also a cellar. The cellar has not been found yet." Ye Donglin, who had just found something, was also very excited.

The brothers didn't wait for anyone else and came to the front yard happily.

It didn't take long for the brothers to find the entrance to the cellar next to the kitchen, but there was a wooden door at the entrance, and there was a big lock on it.

Ye Xilin pulled hard, but the lock didn't move at all.

However, the cellar door was in disrepair and two wooden boards had fallen off. Ye Xilin approached the hole in the board and took a look inside.

It was dark inside and I couldn't see anything. Ye Xilin only felt that it was gloomy and cool inside.

Ye Donglin on the side saw that the position at the entrance of the cave was occupied, so he had to lie on the wooden door to listen to the movement inside, but it was quiet inside and there was no sound.

The two brothers pulled on the lock and worked together, but they still couldn't open the rusty lock.

"Everyone, come here quickly." Ye Xilin shouted softly.

At this time, everyone was rummaging around in the small garden and pavilion. When they heard Ye Xilin's voice, they thought they had found another treasure and hurried over.

Several people were even more happy when they saw the brothers found the entrance to the cellar.

Ye Donglin looked at Father Ye who had arrived late and said, "Dad, the door is locked. Did Yahang give you the key?"

"I don't have this key, but it's not a big problem. It's up to me."

Father Ye got a piece of wire from somewhere and used it to open the lock in a few clicks.

Ye Donglin was very impressed, "Dad, I didn't expect you to have such skills."

"It's just a little trick." Father Ye said with a smile, looking proud.

After the cellar door opened, the impatient Ye Xilin was about to go inside, but Mr. Ye quickly stopped him.

"Although there is a hole in the cellar door, it's better to ventilate it before going in."

"You're so restless. You didn't even take the torch. You can't see anything when you go in." Father Ye quickly pulled Ye Xilin back.

While waiting, Mr. Ye and his father went to find some large pieces of wood and made four torches.

Seeing that the cellar was almost ventilated, Mr. Ye threw several more pieces of wood into it.

The cellar door was broken, and Mr. Ye was worried that there were small animals hiding inside.

Seeing that there was no movement inside, Ye Xilin and Ye Donglin quickly lit the torches in their hands and looked at Mr. Ye eagerly.

Before entering the cellar, Mr. Ye specifically warned:

"This house is at the foot of the mountain. It is surrounded by streams and grass. I don't know if there will be snakes in it. Please be careful when you go in."
