章節 680: Best Ratio

With three pounds of meat per test batch, Chu Qingzhi prepared ten batches, each with a different ratio of salted duck egg whites to experiment with.

As she busied herself in the workshop, Chu Xuhua, Chu Qingning, Chu Qingshuang, and Wu Yaqing came to assist.

Seeing Wu Yaqing, Chu Qingzhi recalled her earlier visit to the bookshop and asked, "Yaqing, how did your story go?"

The others, intrigued by the mention of a story, looked on with curiosity.

Wu Yaqing, who had faced rejection at the bookstore, shook her head in dejection, "Don't mention it. The shopkeeper wouldn't even look at my book, dismissing me as a troublemaker."

Chu Qingzhi comforted her, "Don't worry, we'll think of another way."

Wu Yaqing was visibly disheartened by her experience, lamenting the lack of recognition for her talent and wishing she were a man to at least have her stories considered before being rejected.
