Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Xiang Zhifu smiled. Once he relaxed, he naturally mentioned that Xiang Zhisen wanted to see Chu Heng.

“Speaking of which, there’s something I want to tell you, Eldest Uncle.”

“My caravan found some records of wood ears in other provinces. Some small places also eat wood ears. Some people even grow wood ears,” Chu Heng said.

“It’s a little late in the season now. However, we can try to cultivate it. We just need to control the temperature well.”

“Ah Yu wants to give it a try. However, it will take at least two months to grow the wood ears.”

“Eldest Uncle, do you want me to give you the books about planting them or let someone come to my home to learn about it?” Chu Heng respected Ye Muyu’s preference. Planting some wood ears was a good thing.

However, he could not let her be too far away from him. It was most convenient to do it at home.

As for the choice, it was up to the Xiang family.

“Ah Heng, you can grow these wood ears by yourself?” Xiang Zhifu was surprised.

“Yes. Logically speaking, it will be nurtured in July and August, and will emerge in November and December. It will end in April next year. If it is nurtured well, we can take in three batches.”

“Can I let Ling’er learn?” Although Xiang Zhifu had heard this from Ling’er, he had never heard Ah Heng say it himself, so he was very excited.

“Sure.” Chu Heng nodded.

This was his original intention. Since Ah Yu liked Xiang Ling’er, he naturally chose her.

“Do you still need manpower?” Chu Heng asked.

Unexpectedly, Xiang Zhifu immediately shook his head. “No need, no need. This time, not only did Ling’er learn how to bake, but her sisters-in-law also learned how to bake wood ears. Although they are not very good, they can learn slowly.”

“It’s not suitable for any of the children in the family to go. On the contrary, only Ling’er is impartial. Once she learns it and comes back, not only can she teach the others in the family, but she won’t delay the work at home.”

Chu Heng nodded in agreement. For Xiang Zhifu to understand this in such a short time, it was obvious that he was wise and impartial. This family was harmonious, and the wood ear business could only continue.

“Then I’ll go and tell Ling’er and the others.” Xiang Zhifu’s eyes were filled with joy, and he walked much more briskly.

In the kitchen.

Now, the baking process reached the final part of the first stage.

The wood ears had already been dried for the first time, and the second time would take a long time.

However, it was already very late today. They only needed to put it on the stove and use the remaining heat to bake it. Then, they would continue baking it tomorrow morning.

Although it was a little troublesome, it was just a matter of temperature and time. It was not difficult.

Xiang Zhifu went straight into the kitchen where all the women were.

He did not say anything immediately. Instead, he went to look at the wood ears.

“Ah Yu, these wood ears look a little dry, but they must still be wet inside. They can’t be stored for too long.” Xiang Zhifu reached out and pinched a piece of wood ear. He had been a farmer for so long, so he could tell.

Ye Muyu nodded with a smile. “Eldest Uncle, you have a good eye. The wood ear has not gone through the next step. I’m afraid it will take another 12 hours tomorrow. It will be ready by then.”

“Then it doesn’t seem that difficult.” Xiang Zhifu was relieved. “Ah Yu, if there’s nothing urgent, you should rest early. You’ve been busy for the whole day.”

“Then… I’ll do that.” Ye Muyu looked at the fire and reminded Xiang Ling’er before bringing a basin of hot water back to the house.
