Chapter 803: Chicken Rolls
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
The women who were washing clothes by the river stopped to look at the waterwheel. One of them said, “So that’s what it looks like. 1 didn’t expect it to be so big.
“l would have thought it was an illusion if I hadn’t seen it in person. With this, we can water our fields without having to travel to and from here.”
“We no longer have to work so hard to water our fields. Now, everyone can rely on the waterwheel instead. Miss Su is unparalleled when it comes to helping us.”
The villagers could not stop smiling because they knew the waterwheel would benefit them significantly.
Su Binglan looked around at the many fields and said, “We can build two more of these to make farming even more efficient.”
Su Wenxing had been observing the waterwheel and noticed it spinning a little too slowly. Puzzled, he asked, “Binglan, is it supposed to be that slow?”
Su Binglan responded, “We can add a few more wooden planks on the water carts to make them quicker.”
Su Wenxing followed her instructions. As expected, the waterwheel moved faster. Although he had followed her instructions while building and installing it, he did not understand exactly how it worked.
Even if Su Binglan explained the physics behind it, he might not understand it. Soon after, news of the waterwheel spread throughout the village like wildfire. Everyone knew about the waterwheel and what it could do.
Therefore, the villagers who had just finished work ran to the river to check it out. They circled the waterwheel but could not understand how it worked. Even so, they were amazed.
Of course, people from surrounding villages also went to look at the waterwheel. Once again, they envied Su Teng Village.
One person said, “l wonder if our people could build a waterwheel, too.” “Yeah, that’s a fantastic invention. Miss Su is incredible.’
“l keep thinking Miss Su is a guardian angel who came from heaven. She knows everything and can even invent such a magical thing.”
Everyone was shocked as they looked at the waterwheel. They felt it was impossible to exist in the mortal world. Additionally, the evening sun shined red and illuminated the area.
It made the waterwheel look even more majestic. At that time, every household should be preparing dinner. However, the villagers only wanted to see the waterwheel.
Even people from other villagers flocked over. Everyone gathered around and discussed the waterwheel in awe, Even so, no one dared to touch it, fearing they would desecrate something so magical.
Su Binglan did not know how amazed everyone was. After ensuring the waterwheel worked perfectly, she returned home for dinner.
Su Fengmao finished gathering the firewood and headed toward the stove. When he saw his daughter, he passed a money bag to her, saying, “Binglan, this is the money for the potatoes you sold to the other villagers. Your granduncle has already counted it for you.”
Su Binglan said, “Give it to Mother and tell her to keep it.”
Su Binglan was not interested in the money and simply wanted to help as many people as possible. She did not even intend to look at the money.
Although Su Fengmao had expected his daughter to say that, he still felt the need to check in with her.
Su Binglan asked, “Why isn’t Mother home yet?”
“Many people have been coming to the paper mill these past few days, so she’s still busy.”
Even Su Binglan was too busy to even check on the paper mill. The main reason for that was because the paper mill employees had yet to arrive, so the family could not start making paper.
“Father, what do you mean when you said many people have been coming to the paper mill?”
Su Fengmao answered, “They’re from the prefecture. They were shocked when they first looked around the village. They say Su Teng Village isn’t like a village at all. It’s different from their villages.
“They say our village is more prosperous than the prefecture.” He felt a sense of pride as he spoke. After all, the village had changed so much because of his daughter.
Su Binglan asked, “Why didn’t you guys tell me that the workers have arrived?”
“Well, you’ve been so busy these past few days. You just returned from the prefecture, and already you’re trying to sell and rent the houses and shops. You’re even handling things for the printing factory.
“Your mother noticed how tired you were, so she didn’t want to trouble you with the paper mill, too. She thought she’d tell you about it after she settled the workers and started operations.”
As parents, Su Fengmao and Shen Qiuhua’s hearts ached for their daughter. Su Binglan felt a warmth in her heart when she thought about it. She said, “I’ll ask Mother about the workers when she gets home.”
“Okay, Binglan. Oh, what do you want to eat tonight? I’ll make it for you.” Su
Fengmao and the rest of the family had learned how to cook from Su Binglan.
She said, “Let’s have a simple meal.”
“Then what should we eat?” Su Fengmao and Shen Qiuhua had grown accustomed to eating whatever their daughter wanted when she was home. “I’ll make chicken rolls.’
“What are those?” Su Fengmao did not remember having such a thing before and did not know what it was. He only knew it had something to do with chicken. “All right, I’ll help you make them. Just tell me what to do.”
Su Binglan said, “Let’s cut the chicken into strips first. I’ll season it later.”
“All right.” Su Fengmao nodded and then went to slice the chicken breast while his daughter went to get the flour and cornstarch.
She planned to add warm water to the flour and cornstarch before beating eggs into it. After kneading the dough into balls, she flattened them with a rolling pin.
Meanwhile, Su Wenzhe and Liu Yinyin returned. Su Fengmao looked at the two and asked, “Why are you home so late today? You should’ve been home earlier, right?”
“Yinyin and I went to look at the waterwheel,” Su Wenzhe excitedly said, “So many people were there, even people from other villages. It was a spectacle, and I didn’t expect the waterwheel to look so magical.”
Liu Yinyin was just as excited. She felt a sense of pride when she considered how Su Binglan had invented such a thing.
When the couple went to see the waterwheel, everyone greeted them respectfully because they knew Su Wenzhe and Liu Yinyin were members of the Su family.
Even those from other villages made way for the couple to check out the waterwheel. Liu Yinyin and Su Wenzhe felt joyful when they received such respect from people..
