Chapter 214: Chapter 214 Scumbag
Mo Yaner felt a blush creep over her aged face as she recalled her actions from a few days ago, feeling some embarrassment that was hard to shake off. Fortunately, her mother and two younger sisters didn’t hold it against her and treated her as well as they always had.
The two sisters worked seamlessly together, one tending the fire and the other cooking, their cooperation a silent pact of understanding.
With her sisters on good terms, Madam Xie felt comforted. Seeing that there was nothing urgent at home, she took the farming tools to the fields. The garlic sprouts that Xuexue had planted were now sprouting pleasingly well, but the weeds in the field were also growing thick and needed to be pulled out promptly, lest they steal the nutrients from the garlic sprouts.
As Mo Yaner watched Xuexue’s first pot of loaches emanate a fragrant aroma, her eyes glued to it, she exclaimed, “Xuexue, who taught you this method of cooking loaches, it looks very fragrant.”
She had eaten a lot of the dried loaches recently. They were fragrant, crispy, both dry and chewy. Unexpectedly, Xuexue had added seasonings, presenting a whole new spectacle; the bright red loaches looked even more appetizing.
Xuexue scooped up a few with a spatula and handed them to Mo Yaner, smiling, “Big sister, try the taste first, then you can praise me.”
Looking at the steaming hot loaches, Mo Yaner blew on them and carefully picked one up with her fingers, popping it into her mouth. After chewing, she immediately showed a surprised delight, “Oh! It’s spicy, and a bit numb, delicious! Really delicious!” After speaking, she grabbed another one with her hands and stuffed it into her mouth, appearing unable to stop herself.
“Xuexue, who taught you this recipe for making loaches? It’s quite unique, I have never seen anyone else do it this way.”
“I often watch mother cook, and I figured it out myself.”
“Xuexue, you’re really clever. This method of cooking loaches is extremely delicious.”
As Mo Yaner couldn’t stop praising, Xuexue was assured; it seemed that the culinary skills she learned in her past life for that worthless man were finally making a difference in this life. Then, she processed the remaining loaches the same way, sealed them in a wooden barrel, and just waited for the market day to sell them in town.

“Xuexue, can those loaches really earn some silver?” Mo Yaner was somewhat skeptical, as such creatures were abundant in the countryside and she had never seen anyone selling them for silver before.
“Of course, they can. Otherwise, why would we have been so busy these past days! Both cooking and buying seasonings.” Xuexue paused, then added, “Big sister, I’m not afraid to tell you, just the seasonings alone cost me dozens of Copper Coins. If it weren’t for making money, why would I waste that money?”
“Hmm! That’s true,” Mo Yaner nodded.
“So, just wait and see, in a few days, I will turn them into shiny silver coins,” Xuexue said with a laugh.
“Xuexue has grown up and become promising,” Mo Yaner couldn’t help but remark.
Just then, Chuner returned from playing with Tuantuan and Yuanyuan and the doggy.
In a poor family, snacks were a rarity. Xuexue put some of the prepared loaches in a small dish for them as a snack.
The kids, their faces beaming with joy, sat at the doorstep, each eating a loach in turn, their happy laughter resounding from time to time.
Mo Yaner watched with some guilt; a few days ago, out of her own greed, she had caused the children to endure great hardships in the Mo family’s house, where they had been hungry and subjected to contemptuous glances. The Mo family’s people would often call them “poor ghosts,” causing the young Tuantuan and Yuanyuan to feel somewhat insecure.
Fortunately, they were now back at the old residence, where the two little ones had become lively and cheerful again.
