I became the Prime Minister's Adored Wife after Transmigrating - Chapter 50

50 Sunrise

When Zhao Lanhua was young, she was considered a flower in this village.

Although she was over 40 years old now, she looked very young because her skin was naturally fair.

Now that she had a silver hairpin, her face looked even gentler.

“I didn’t expect Ah Tao’s culinary skills to be so good.” After listening to the entire story, Zhao Lanhua asked in surprise, “So it’s all thanks to Ah Tao that we could sell so many fish today?”

!!
“Yes, you can say that.” Shen Dashan drank a big bowl of sweet water and nodded slightly.

“Ah Tao’s luck is really good!” Zhao Lanhua could not help but sigh. “At noon, Sister Guihua came over. I heard that the fish from the other two shops were not sold at a high price! Uncle Village Chief is having a headache!”

“I noticed it this morning when I was catching fish. Other than the big fish that Third Brother caught, the others didn’t get as many good catches. They’re too small and not easy to sell.”

Fish that were too small did not have much meat and could not be sold for a high price.

When Ji Zhao heard this news, she had an idea.

“Are you saying that we should collect all those small fish?” Zhao Lanhua frowned in confusion after hearing Ji Zhao’s suggestion. “Ah Tao, why do you need so many fish? Besides, those fish are too small to sell!”

“Mother, I understand.” Ji Zhao smiled and nodded. “The county city is lacking in ingredients, and those small fish don’t have much meat. Of course, it’s not easy to sell them. But what if we process them a little? We might be able to earn a sum.”

After hearing Ji Zhao’s suggestion, Zhao Lanhua made a prompt decision!

“Alright, then what do you need? Mother will prepare it for you!”

“Fish, flour, eggs.”

“That’s all?” Zhao Lanhua was even more confused.

“These are enough.” Ji Zhao smiled sweetly. “Many delicious foods are made in the simplest way.”

“Alright, I’ll get your father to go to the village chief’s house later. Let’s get five catties of small fish to try.”

“Okay!”

At dusk, the sunset on the horizon was as brilliant as fire and extremely enchanting.

In the courtyard, Ji Zhao was focused on Ji Chen, who was writing on the sand table.

“Sister…” Ji Chen tried his best to write down two words. He looked up at Ji Zhao and obediently grinned, revealing two cute canine teeth.

Facing his pure and beautiful smile, Ji Zhao felt that her heart was about to melt.

“Chenchen is really amazing!” Ji Zhao generously gave him double the thumbs up. “You wrote so well!”

Ji Zhao’s interest was also piqued. She squatted beside him, picked up a small branch, and seriously wrote two words.

“Chenchen, look. This word is our surname, Ji. The word beside it is Zhao. Actually, compared to the name Ji Ah Tao, Sister prefers the name Ji Zhao.” Ji Zhao turned to look at him and smiled brightly.

“Zhao, meaning the sun shining.” Shen Yao suddenly opened his mouth and said with a smile, “The word Zhao is very good.”

“I think it’s pretty good too~” Ji Zhao smiled back and said softly, “Moreover, Ji Zhao has a homonym that means ‘good omen,’ so that no matter what happens, I can turn misfortune into good luck!”

Shen Yao nodded slightly in agreement. Then, his gaze inadvertently landed on the sand table, and a trace of surprise flashed across his eyes.

“You can write?”

“I just wrote it for fun~” The guilty Ji Zhao was about to erase the name on the sand table when Shen Yao grabbed her wrist, making it difficult for her to move.
