This time could be overlooked, but if she were to make jam again, there would be no need to go back to He County. Instead, Sister Wang and her people would send them over, though she still needed to hire more hands on her own side.
Pushing these assorted thoughts aside, Cheng Su began making pineapple jam with the current batch.

"Sorry, I was so busy that I completely lost track of time," Cheng Su apologized first upon seeing the sinking sun, realizing she had been too engrossed in her work.
