Su Binglan liked pampering her family because their happiness would make her happy. She knew her parents enjoyed making dumplings with her.

Shen Qiuhua smiled. “Our dumplings will taste good when we use these willow sprouts to wrap them.”

Liu Yinyin thought of something and looked at Su Binglan curiously, asking, “Can we make dumplings with vermicelli?”

Su Binglan explained, “Well, the dumplings are too thin, and the vermicelli is too soft. We won’t be able to taste the vermicelli, either. However, we can use vermicelli in steamed buns.’

Liu Yinyin nodded. “My parents and aunt told me to thank you. They wouldn’t have been able to make corn vermicelli without you. My aunt never knew she could use vermicelli in her steamed buns.’

Liu Yinyin discovered her parents wanted to make corn vermicelli when she visited them. Then, she returned home and told Su Binglan about it, and the latter provided a solution.

Liu Yinyin even talked about her aunt’s family. When she heard her aunt talking about buns, the former offered many suggestions. Liu Yinyin thought her sister-in-law’s ideas were amazing as they helped her aunt’s family. Liu Yinyin was grateful to Su Binglan.

Su Binglan smiled, saying, “That’s because your mother and aunt lived wholeheartedly. If they weren’t willing to work hard, they wouldn’t have used my ideas.”

Su Binglan was delighted to help others because it made her life more meaningful.

Liu Yinyin smiled. “Aunt Liu and her husband’s shop is doing very well now.

My aunt says she’s making as much as they used to in a year in just a month.”

She remembered Lady Liu treating her well when she was young. After Lady Liu got married, she lived far from Su Teng Village. She would only visit once a year. Still, Lady Liu would bring food and new clothes for Liu Yinyin.

Therefore, Liu Yinyin hoped her aunt’s steamed buns shop would do well.

Su Wenzhe said, “Many people live here now. Binglan will soon open more factories, and even more people will move here. After all, we sell good things around here that people are willing to buy.”

As someone experienced in business, Shen Qiuhua nodded and said, ‘You’re right. Businesses will be more profitable with more people staying here.”

Su Fengmao added, “You can’t say that. It’s just that the food we sell here tastes better than elsewhere. Since we have so many shops, people are spoiled for choice.’

“Yes, you’re right,” Shen Qiuhua said smilingly.

The family chatted and laughed as Su Binglan and Liu Yinyin placed the

willow sprouts into their baskets.

Shen Qiuhua descended the ladder and brushed off the leaves from her shoulders. She said, “These should be enough to make dumplings and buns.

“Many others must want to gather these willow sprouts, too, so let’s not take them all. We should leave some for everyone.”

Su Fengmao looked toward the distant fields and said, “Most people in our village are harvesting their rapeseed. They don’t have much time to gather willow sprouts now. I reckon they’ll gather these sprouts once they finish harvesting rapeseeds. ”

When he got down from the ladder, the family folded the ladders and prepared to go home. At that moment, someone pushed their cart of rapeseed down the hill.

Liu Sen looked at Su Fengmao and his family, greeting them with a bright smile, “Hello, everyone! Are you here to gather willow sprouts?”

Liu Sen was from Su Teng Village and worked in the winery. Since he was on leave from work, he went to gather rapeseeds. He wanted to do it quickly so he could return to work earlier.

Shen Qiuhua chuckled, saying, ‘Yeah, we need willow sprouts to make dumplings at home.”

Liu Sen’s wife smiled. “Madam Shen, I wouldn’t have known to use willow sprouts for dumplings if you hadn’t mentioned it. I only knew we could make buns with them.”

She was reluctant to use white flour to make buns in the past. Instead, she used coarse flour and was unwilling to put meat in them. Now, she was willing to use oil and meat in her cooking.

Liu Sen’s wife grew hungry when she thought of meat buns.

Shen Qiuhua said, “If you’re not busy, you can gather some willow sprouts. After all, they’re only available during spring.”

Liu Sen’s wife nodded. “You’re right. However, we need to harvest our rapeseeds first. Speaking of which, it’s all thanks to your daughter. Otherwise, we wouldn’t have known about rapeseeds.”

The villagers were in disbelief when Chief Su gathered them last year and told them about rapeseeds. Even so, they believed in Su Binglan.

Nonetheless, it was nearing winter at that time. Even if they planted crops, they would not grow. Moreover, Su Binglan provided rapeseeds for free to the villagers. The villagers could return the extra whenever they harvested.

However, people bought most of the seeds. Su Binglan was kind enough to help everyone. Besides, the seeds were inexpensive. No one expected the yield to be so high, even though Su Binglan had repeated it to them so many times.

“These rapeseeds can produce a lot of oil. We plan to plant more peanuts.

Then use the remaining land to grow crops.”

People appeared behind them, also carrying baskets of rapeseeds.

“Fengmao, if there are more good seeds in the spring, we’ll buy them from you.”

“Don’t worry, I won’t forget you all,” Su Fengmao said, waving.”

“Do you have good seeds, Fengmao?” Someone with white hair asked in excitement. He only knew how high the yield was after planting and harvesting the seeds.

He was shocked when he went to look at the fields. He was excited when he considered how much oil he could produce. Those who planted less were annoyed because they thought they would have plenty during winter.

People knew they could produce as much as possible and keep some for themselves. They would then sell the extra in the market. The price of oil was not cheap, either. It was extra income for the villagers, which was tempting.

Everyone looked at Su Fengmao in unison. They heard that the yield of potatoes and sweet potatoes would be high. Since spring had arrived, Chief Su would give them to the villagers.

However, the villagers wondered if Chied Su would remember to do that. They would only feel at ease after hearing it from Su Fengmao. Besides, it was not time for farming yet, and Chief Su had not made any arrangements.

“We do have good seeds,” Su Fengmao said, “Don’t worry, everyone. Just wait for my uncle to give you the details.”

Su Binglan had told her granduncle to divide the potato and sweet potato seeds last time. She had also prepared enough seeds and would distribute them to the villagers at the right time..
