The Little Darling Wife Who is a Divine Doctor Saved the Entire Family of the Duke's Mansion

Chapter 232

He Zhiran was playing with Rice Ball when she heard a voice and quickly walked out of the house, following Fifth Sister-In-Law to the backyard.

On the neatly arranged stone slabs were ten rabbits that had already been skinned, and the snow-white and intact rabbit skins were hung on bamboo poles by Fifth Elder Brother.

This step was correct, as she knew a method for handling rabbit skins.

The method involved drying the freshly peeled rabbit skins, then using a blunt shovel to scrape off the oil film and residual meat on the skin, soaking it in clean water for one to two days. This would restore the rabbit skins to a fresh state, and finally, they would be dried again, making the rabbit skins very soft.

At present, the rabbit skins had been hung on bamboo poles by Fifth Elder Brother, and what He Zhiran needed to do was to process the rabbit meat.

Raising so many rabbits was undoubtedly to earn some silver coins.

If she simply sent these rabbits to the restaurants in the city for sale, there would still be profits, but it would be much less than He Zhiran's plan.

Just as He Zhiran was about to take two rabbits to the kitchen, Fifth Elder Brother spoke up.

"Junior Sister Nine, I used to send the rabbits I caught while hunting to the restaurants in the city. Skinned rabbits like these can be sold for 130 wen each."

130 wen?

The rabbits produced in her space were not only large in size but also had a lot of meat. Each rabbit weighed at least six or seven jin, and they were only sold for 130 wen. Such a small amount of money did not do justice to the words "produced in the space."

However, if she wanted to earn more money, she had to consider the purchasing power of this era. The method she thought of could sell for one or two silver coins, or even less, but at least several times more than 100 wen.

"Fifth Elder Brother, I want to try making these rabbits into ready-to-eat dishes and send them to the restaurants. If it succeeds, I estimate that we can earn more silver coins," she said.

Upon hearing that she could earn more silver coins, Fifth Elder Brother wholeheartedly agreed.

If it weren't for the fact that his body hadn't fully recovered, he would have gone into the mountains to hunt for silver coins long ago.

Now that he had taken on the task of raising rabbits, he could only obediently stay at home and do the work.

"In that case, Junior Sister Nine, give it a try. If there's anything I can do, just let me know," Fifth Elder Brother said.

He Zhiran responded and then carried two rabbits to the stove.

The sisters-in-law, Old Lady Mo, and Mo Hanyue were all busy making dolls, and it was not yet time to cook dinner. Therefore, no one disturbed her as she worked in the kitchen, making it convenient for her to take out some seasonings from her space.

Following the method from her past life, He Zhiran made these two rabbits into cold rabbit dishes.

The spicy and fragrant aroma quickly wafted out of the kitchen. Fortunately, the sisters-in-law were all in their rooms; otherwise, they would have gathered around to take a look.

He Zhiran put the prepared rabbit meat into containers and waited for it to cool down to become authentic cold rabbit dishes.

She had just bought an electronic scale from Taobao, so she measured the weight. The two skinned rabbits together weighed thirteen jin and eight liang.

After making them into cold rabbit dishes, she measured again, and there was less than seven jin left.

In other words, if she sold the cold rabbit dishes by weight, she would need to charge at least 300 wen per jin to achieve her desired selling price.

By this calculation, the price sounded a bit high, so it would be better to sell it by portion.

A batch of cold rabbit meat was carefully wrapped in oiled paper, divided into twenty packages. Each package was priced at one hundred wen, which is a reasonable price.

Of course, these were made today for the family to taste. Even if there were plans to sell them, the final decision would depend on the family's evaluation and unanimous approval.

After making the cold rabbit meat in the kitchen, He Zhiran, still feeling the numbing and spicy aroma all over her body, took advantage of the busy atmosphere and decided to enter her space for a quick wash.

After drying her hair, He Zhiran spent some time playing with Rice Ball in the space. It was already evening.

Considering the cold weather at this time, her cold rabbit meat should have cooled down by now.

When He Zhiran arrived at the kitchen to check, she was stunned by the scene before her eyes.

Each sister-in-law held a piece of rabbit meat, their faces filled with an intoxicated expression.

Even those who couldn't handle spicy food sighed from time to time, their faces flushed but still eagerly devouring the meat.

As everyone noticed He Zhiran's presence, they all stopped their actions.

Second Sister-in-law smiled and said, "Ninth Sister, this delicious meat must be your creation, right? We came here to prepare dinner and immediately noticed this, so everyone wanted to taste it."

They said "taste," but it seemed like each of them had already eaten several pieces.

Fortunately, He Zhiran had made plenty; otherwise, the sister-in-laws would have already eaten it all...

What she cared about most right now was not the quantity of the cold rabbit meat but everyone's evaluation of this dish.

"Sister-in-laws, do you think this cold rabbit meat is delicious?"

Everyone nodded, "Mmm, it's delicious, incredibly delicious."

"It's spicy and satisfying."

"After eating one piece, you crave another."

Hearing the sister-in-laws' praise and looking at their expressions, He Zhiran knew that her cold rabbit meat venture was already half successful.

Tonight, she would make the remaining eight rabbits and try selling them in the city tomorrow morning.

Not only did the cold rabbit meat receive high praise from a few sister-in-laws, but even Fifth Elder Brother, who usually said very little, kept praising how tasty it was.

He Zhiran had only tried making cold rabbit meat here once, just to see how it would turn out, but she didn't expect it to be a success on the first try.

The two rabbits' worth of cold rabbit meat disappeared in an instant as the family devoured it.

The sister-in-laws knew that Ninth Sister would be making cold rabbit meat again tonight, so after dinner, they didn't return to their rooms to continue making dolls but followed her to the kitchen.

He Zhiran knew that the sister-in-laws would come and help in the evening, so she had already prepared all the ingredients and didn't need to retrieve them from the space. She wasn't worried about being discovered since that scapegoat foreigner had always been useful.

Fortunately, these ingredients didn't take up much space. Last time, there was a big bag of things labeled as seasonings in the storage room.

There weren't many rabbits that could be slaughtered at home now, so occasionally, she secretly added some seasonings to the bag. It would be enough until they could grow these seasonings themselves.

He Zhiran didn't hold back in teaching the sister-in-laws the method of making cold rabbit meat. After all, this was just a small venture, and she planned to develop other profitable businesses in the future. She couldn't always rely on this one thing.

The sisters-in-law were all very devoted to their studies, repeating each step in their minds several times, afraid of forgetting them when they woke up after a nap.

After working for more than an hour, the eight rabbits were finally transformed into delicious cold rabbit dishes once again.

Eldest Sister-in-law took a piece while it was still hot and found that it tasted the same as the one made by Ninth Younger Sister.

Following He Zhiran's instructions, all the cold rabbit dishes were arranged in containers and would be divided and packaged the next morning.

When He Zhiran returned to the room, Mo Jiuye was already waiting there, looking bored.

Upon seeing his wife, he pulled her into his arms.

He Zhiran struggled to break free, saying, "I smell strongly of cooking fumes."

"I don't mind. I love all the scents my wife has," Mo Jiuye replied.

He Zhiran...

Nowadays, Mo Jiuye would say such things almost without thinking, without needing to prepare in advance.
