In the backyard, Chu Qingshuang and a group of her friends had already ground a lot of spice powders. Each type of spice powder was placed in its own basin, neatly arranged on a table.
Upon seeing Chu Qingzhi, Chu Qingshuang called out, "Fifth Sister!"
"Well done, you've ground so much already." Chu Qingzhi walked over to the table and praised.
Chu Qingshuang replied, "Everyone was worried you'd need it urgently, so we worked quickly."
Chu Qingzhi told everyone, "Seeing how hard you've all worked, we'll all have the pork dish later."
Everyone thanked her in unison, "Thank you, Sister Qingzhi."
Chu Qingzhi grabbed a nearby bowl and also a small scale, then said to Chu Qingshuang, "How about I teach you how to mix the spices?"
Chu Qingshuang eagerly responded, "Sure, I'll complete the task!"
Chu Qingzhi finally brought over the salt and sugar, totaling nine ingredients. She planned to make two flavors, one sweet and one salty.
