“Oh!” Liu Tianshan was shocked. Dumbfounded, he asked, “Shi mei, what do you need all these for?”
“Of course I have my reasons. Go quickly. Remember, you only have two-hour time. You must rush back within two hours, okay?”
“Okay, I will leave right away!”
Liu Tianshan had no idea why should needed these items, but as far as he was concerned, he only need to follow her requests. He need not worry about anything else.
Watching him left in a hurry, a light smile appeared on Cheng Xiao Xiao’s face. She turned and looked at the few village women that were helping out with tidying up the ranch and walked toward them!
“Xiao Xiao, what are you coming here for? We are almost finished over here!” laughed Shi da niang, happily.
Cheng Xiao Xiao glanced over at the ranch. All sizes of mystical animals running around, the ground were clean. It was obvious that Shi da niang and her lot didn’t slack.
Nodded lightly, Cheng Xiao Xiao said to them, “Shi da niang, why don’t you put the matters of the ranch aside for now and go help in the kitchen? I need to you to help with preparing meals for 50 more people today!”
“That many?”
Shi da niang and her lot had always been the floaters, they went and help out whenever needed extra help. They didn’t go help out in the kitchen because there were already enough kitchen staff. As long as the headcount remains unchanged, they wouldn’t be needed there.
They had a pretty good idea the number of mouths to feed from the last few days. Naturally they were shocked when they heard that the numbers had gone up so drastically!
But Cheng Xiao Xiao had no intention to explain to them. She continued, “Yes, that’s how many we will need. Please go help out in the kitchen after washing your hands!”
“Okay, we will listen to you!”
Shi da niang stopped asking and led the other village women from the ranch to their new location.
Cheng Xiao Xiao returned to her house and didn’t see her parents in the courtyard anymore. She didn’t care much about that and returned into her own quarter. She said directly to little Yuteng, “Yuteng, take out some cabbages, Chinese cabbages, lettuces, rapeseeds, potatoes, and radishes. Oh, and 500 jin of rice!”
“Young mistress, so much at one time. You sure you can finish them all?” asked little Yuteng, utterly confused.
“Yes, of course!” nodded Cheng Xiao Xiao.
“Who’s eating them?”
“Those logging in the mountains, of course!”
“Oh, young mistress’s idea is…..” Yuteng thought of something right away and smiled so much her eyes couldn’t be seen, “Okay, let’s do it!”
“Yuteng, and several dozens of fish as well. Let them try some mystical fish!”
“Okay! Will 50 be enough? Or 100? They will definitely want more fish once they have tried them!”
“Up to you. We can always make more after they’ve eaten them. Grow more food items these next couple of days so we don’t depleting the stock in our warehouse!”
“Okay, I will make the necessary arrangements!”
Shortly, Yuteng brought out a bunch of food out from the dimension. Luckily nobody was around. Otherwise, it will fore sure draw too much attention and trouble.
The living quarter was almost piled full when Cheng Xiao Xiao finally felt happy with what they have and walked outside. She happened to saw her mom walking over from the kitchen. Slightly worried, she asked urgently, “You told Shi da niang and her lot to cook food for 50 people?”
“Yes, mom. I have rice and all sorts of vegetables in my room. Why don’t you take to them for cooking in a bit? Tell them to make them delicious please!” and Cheng Xiao Xiao left with a smile.
