Jiang Ran felt like she had just lain down and hadn’t even fallen asleep yet when soone called her up.
The one calling her was none other than Wang Cuilan.
Wang Cuilan’s voice was cautious, as if she was afraid of disturbing her, yet dutifully roused her from sleep.
Jiang Ran propped herself up, "I’m awake."
"Good, as long as you’re awake, as long as you’re awake!"
Jiang Ran heard clearly that when Wang Cuilan said this, she heaved a big sigh of relief.
While marveling at the original owner’s intimidating presence, Jiang Ran quickly dressed herself.
Before going to sleep last night, she braved the spring chill to take a bath. Today, she felt two pounds lighter, and her movents seed more fluid than before.
Quickly getting dressed, she ticulously tied her hair up and headed out the door.
After washing up, she went to the kitchen, where so people were already busy working.
Wang Cuilan was rolling dough, Pei Shanshan was washing the newly bought bowls and chopsticks, and Pei Yang was putting well-burned firewood into the stove.
Seeing them busy and organized, Jiang Ran didn’t waste any ti. She quickly walked over, dumped the pre-chopped at filling and other ingredients together, then added the seasoning in order.
Jiang Ran had her own recipe for the bun filling, but she didn’t intend to hide it from anyone, so she didn’t mind the gazes from the other three.
After mixing the filling, Jiang Ran called everyone to quickly load the goods onto the cart.
Without a watch, Jiang Ran didn’t know the exact ti, but looking at the dark sky, she thought it was still early. If they hurried to the county town, they should make it in ti.
Both burning stoves were placed on the cart, one was only boiling water, while the other was cooking rice porridge.
The porridge had plenty of red dates sprinkled in it. Halfway there, they could already sll the aroma of rice soup and the distinctive sweetness of red dates.
Besides, there were two large barrels filled with clean water.
A bamboo basket held the washed bowls and chopsticks, while another basket was filled with bamboo-woven plates, used for serving the buns.
The Pei Family didn’t have extra tables or chairs; the only long table they brought was borrowed from the village by Wang Cuilan.
It was indeed a bit shabby, but Jiang Ran didn’t mind.
No matter what business it is, it starts small and grows larger.
As long as they could start well, why worry about not expanding the business later?
Afraid of being late, Jiang Ran didn’t say a word along the way and focused on pressing forward.
Pei Yang and Pei Shanshan pushed the cart together, and their speed was no slower than Jiang Ran.
Jiang Ran’s body was plump, and it was fortunate she could manage herself, let alone help push the cart, she was willing but unable to do it.
Fortunately, although Pei Yang and Pei Shanshan were not very old, they had been helping with family work since childhood, proving quite strong. Pushing a cart was nothing to them.
Because they kept pushing forward, what normally took an hour only took them 40 minutes.
By the ti they reached the county town, the sky was just getting light.
Jiang Ran had scouted out where to set up the stall the day before. After entering the county town, Jiang Ran led the way.
The spot Jiang Ran had chosen was not in the downtown streets, but at an intersection on the east side of the county town, next to the deserted bus stop.
Jiang Ran had observed the entire county town, and here it was close to the elentary, middle, and high schools.
Moreover, a little further east were several factories in the county town.
