He Zhiran was afraid that any noise would lead to embarrassment if overheard by her family the next morning, since the houses were built so close together and the ancient houses were not soundproof. She quickly pulled Mo Jiuye into the space with her.
Thinking of the smell of oil smoke on her body, He Zhiran went into the bathroom again to wash up.
Mo Jiuye was particularly clingy today. Wherever his wife went, he would follow her wherever she went. He even claimed that his wife had worked hard today and that he was willing to wait on her to bathe...
In front of Mo Jiuye, He Zhiran's strength was like a little white rabbit encountering a big gray wolf. She was caught off guard for a moment and Mo Jiuye hugged her tightly. The sudden kiss made her somewhat unprepared.
Accompanied by the sound of water in the bathroom, her mind instantly went blank amidst the entanglement of lips and tongues, and her whole body was completely under Mo Jiuye's control.
Soon, she became very cooperative, tilting her slender, fair neck to take the initiative to cater to his wild kiss.
After a long time, Mo Jiuye finally let her go. He Zhiran felt that she was almost suffocated.
Just as she was gasping for breath, Mo Jiuye had already grabbed the bath towel hanging on the side and wrapped He Zhiran's whole body in it, then carried her straight to the bedroom...
After a night of passion, it resulted in He Zhiran getting up late again the next day.
The sisters-in-law seemed to have become accustomed to this situation. Every time she walked out of the room in broad daylight, everyone's eyes would unconsciously fall on her lower abdomen.
He Zhiran coughed awkwardly twice without explaining like the first time.
Because she knew in her heart that the more she explained this kind of thing, the worse it would get.
She coughed lightly twice, "Sisters-in-law, please help divide the cold rabbit meat into small portions and wrap it in oiled paper."
The sisters-in-law knew that the ninth younger sister had thin skin and tacitly did not tease her.
After eating breakfast, Mo Jiuye prepared to take He Zhiran into the city by mule cart to promote and sell to a restaurant.
Unexpectedly, as soon as the two drove the mule cart to the gate, they saw a carriage coming.
The carriage headed straight for the Mo family and stopped about ten meters away from the gate.
Tang Mingrui jumped down from the car.
"Ninth brother Mo and ninth sister-in-law, are you going out?"
At this moment, He Zhiran was sitting in the carriage. Hearing the familiar voice, she also got out.
"I'm thinking of selling some food I made in the city."
In He Zhiran's mind, although Tang Mingrui was down and out now, he was still a big businessman and would not be interested in this kind of snack.
So she didn't think about cooperating with him.
Unexpectedly, Tang Mingrui showed great interest.
"I don't know what kind of delicacies the ninth sister-in-law has made. May I take a look?"
Let alone take a look, you can even have a taste.
He Zhiran took out a package of cold rabbit directly from the carriage and handed it to Tang Mingrui.
"This is made from rabbit meat raised by my own family. Brother Tang, please try it first."
Tang Mingrui opened the oil paper package and put a piece of rabbit meat in his mouth.
His reaction was the same as the Mo family's last night. His mouth was numb from the spiciness, but he still wanted to keep eating.
After eating three consecutive pieces, Tang Mingrui finally stopped. He knew that the ninth sister-in-law of the Mo family had the final say, so he ignored Mo Jiuye directly.
"Ninth sister-in-law, this meat is too delicious. Why don't you cooperate with me?"
He Zhiran didn't expect Tang Mingrui to be interested in this kind of snack.
Anyway, it would be more convenient to have a future business tycoon cooperate than for her to go to the city to promote it herself.
"Brother Tang, please come in. We can discuss the details of cooperation."
Only then did Tang Mingrui realize that he had been rude, stopping people at their door to taste delicacies.
His face flushed slightly as he said, "Okay."
Mo Jiuye led the mule cart back to the yard and took Tang Mingrui to his room.
With him there, there was no need to worry about issues of other men or not, especially these days, he had discovered that the villagers here paid little attention to such things. He might as well be a person who follows local customs.
After everyone was seated, Tang Mingrui couldn't wait to ask, "Ninth sister-in-law, does this food have a name?"
"This rabbit tastes better when eaten cold, so I called it Cold Rabbit." He Zhiran explained.
"Cold rabbit... Good name, simple, easy to understand and elegant." Tang Mingrui couldn't stop praising the name.
Then he asked about the price.
He Zhiran would not lower the price of cold rabbit just because she was cooperating with an acquaintance. At most she just wouldn't make too much profit.
"I wrapped all the cold rabbit in oil paper. What Brother Tang took just now was a portion. The selling price per portion is 100 wen."
If Tang Mingrui felt it was expensive, she would go to the city herself to find buyers. Anyway, a package of cold rabbit must not be less than this price.
Tang Mingrui looked subconsciously at the package of food in his hand.
It looked like it could fill a plate.
He thought of the prosperous cities he had been to, where a signature dish in a restaurant could sell for several taels of silver.
If a plate of cold rabbit was served, the minimum selling price would probably be more than one or two taels of silver.
This was a good deal.
Although the Tang family declined, they still knew many big businessmen who owned restaurants, such as the largest restaurant in the nearest prefecture from Yuncheng, whose boss was acquainted with his father.
Such good food, which was probably the only one in the world, if he gave it to them, it would probably sell like hot cakes.
"Okay, according to what Sister Mo said, 100 wen per portion. I want as many as you have here."
He Zhiran did not know Tang Mingrui's sales channels, nor did she care about these things.
Her intention to have Mo Jiuye lend a hand to save the latter was for future business cooperation.
"We prepared 80 portions of cold rabbit today. Brother Tang has tasted one package, we'll take that one."
Although it was only 100 wen, for the hardworking He Zhiran, it was still necessary to make it clear.
Tang Mingrui did not stand on ceremony either. He would never put profits first when dealing with a benefactor's business.
He would still pay according to the profit sharing ratio later. He believed he could definitely help the Mo family a bit.
Since the cold rabbit had not yet been delivered to the restaurant, Tang Mingrui could not determine the final selling price either. Therefore, unlike before with the dolls, he did not mention sharing profits with the ninth sister-in-law in advance.
After settling the sales of cold rabbit, Tang Mingrui brought up something else.
His purpose in coming today was to see how the doll production was going.
He Zhiran hadn't paid much attention to the number of dolls these past few days, it was the sisters-in-law who were in charge.
So she went out to ask her eldest sister-in-law about the number of dolls.
The eldest sister-in-law told her that in the past few days, together with the women of the Xie and Fang families, they had made a total of 150 dolls.
He Zhiran relayed the numbers to Tang Mingrui.
Hearing that there were so many dolls, and eager to go to the prefecture to sell cold rabbit, Tang Mingrui left West Ridge Village with the dolls and cold rabbit together, at the fastest possible speed.
He Zhiran was afraid that any noise would lead to embarrassment if overheard by her family the next morning, since the houses were built so close together and the ancient houses were not soundproof. She quickly pulled Mo Jiuye into the space with her.
Thinking of the smell of oil smoke on her body, He Zhiran went into the bathroom again to wash up.
