Chapter 196 Potato Pancakes

"My goodness, this is so delicious!" Xiao Shu couldn't help but exclaim.

The soft, glutinous potatoes are coated in flour, and the breadcrumbs are fried into golden-brown round cakes.

It was sprinkled with salt and pepper, and the salty and savory flavor burst in your mouth, instantly bringing out the deliciousness.

She couldn't help but exclaim, "This is so delicious! How can it be so good? It's even better than chicken patties!"

"Hehe, I told you it would be delicious." After saying that, Yu Jing also started eating the hash browns.

The two savored the potato pancakes, wanting to finish them quickly but also reluctant to let the delicious treat be consumed too soon.

The two of them ate slowly, like two kittens.

But the savory aroma of the fried food spread throughout the space, causing others to turn their heads as well.

"I think I smell something fried."

"Yeah, it's so obvious."

"Who is eating something?"

"Oh, it seems to be Yu Jing."

"Let's go take a look."

Other classmates who were more familiar with Yu Jing started to come over and ask her questions.

"Yu Jing, what are you eating?"

"Yes, yes, it smells so good."

"Oh, I see! It's hash browns! They look so delicious! Can I have one?"

"I'm thinking of going too. I have some pickled chicken feet here, would you like some? Can I have something else?"

"I have some small cakes here, would you like some?"

"Where did you buy it? It smells so good! I want to buy some too."

Yu Jing was startled by the sudden surge of people, but then realized that they were all coming for her hash browns.

She smiled sheepishly, "I'm so sorry, these are potato pancakes made by my mom, not bought from outside, and this is all we have left. Please share them and try them out."

Although Yu Jing was a little reluctant, these classmates were all nice people and she had a good relationship with them, so she decided to give some away.

"Wow, your mom made this? That's amazing!"

"Great, great! Thank you! Here's some candy, have some."

Yu Jing accepted the snacks from everyone, saying, "Okay, okay, everyone can share them slowly. Thank you all for the snacks."

After the others received their hash browns, they also started eating them.

"Wow, this is delicious!"

"Really, the saltiness and flavor are just right, and I can taste the potato flavor."

"This mashed potato is so soft and smooth, it's delicious."

"Yes, yes, it's so delicious! I never expected it to be so good. It's absolutely amazing!"

"My God, this is absolutely delicious."

A group of people were making a series of exclamations, which made other people who were too embarrassed to come over unable to help but stare.

"Oh my god, this is so delicious!" Everyone couldn't help but want more as they ate, but they all knew that Yu Jing didn't have much left.

So she felt too embarrassed to go forward anymore, and Yu Jing quickly started eating. She didn't have many pieces left, so she couldn't share them.

Only her good friend Xiaoshu could get two more pieces. "Xiaojing, Xiaojing, give me another piece, I want to eat it."

"Alright, alright, you can have the last half. I really don't have any more."

"Okay, okay, that's good. Thank you so much. You truly are my beautiful, generous, lively, and lovely Jingjing."

Xiao Shu took the book and ate it with relish.

Those around them were getting hungry just looking at it, so they had to force themselves to look away.

"Yu Jing, could you ask Auntie to make a few more potato pancakes later?"

"Yes, yes, we can buy from you."

"Yes, yes, name your price, higher than the fried chicken shop is fine too."

"Yes, this is much better than the hash browns from the fried chicken shop."

"That's it! I really want to eat it. Please make me a serving!"

"This mashed potato is so special, it's exactly what I like to eat."

Yu Jing was overwhelmed by everyone's enthusiastic onslaught and quickly waved her hand.

"Don't worry, everyone, class is about to start. I'll tell you more later. My mom has a secret to making this dish so delicious."

"it is good"

"Everyone, hurry up and get to class."

When class time arrived, everyone returned to the classroom, and their craving for hash browns was temporarily suppressed.

Yu Jing waited until get out of class ended before packing up her things to go eat with Xiao Shu, only to find a large group of people gathered around the table.

"Xiao Jing, Xiao Jing, tell us what you didn't finish saying earlier."

"Yeah, yeah, what's your mom's secret?"

"You wouldn't believe it, after eating half a hash brown, I was even a little distracted in class afterwards, still savoring the taste."

"Ah!" Yu Jing was shocked. This was a pure foodie. She was really guilty that she would miss class because of potato pancakes.

"The main difference in these hash browns is the type of potatoes they use. The potatoes my mom used this time were grown by my cousin, and they taste especially good. She even runs an online store, and they're in high demand online, which is why they're so delicious."

"Really?" the students asked in unison.

"Of course it's true. If you don't believe me, ask Xiaoshu. She used to eat my mom's potato pancakes, and they tasted completely different from the ones we have now."

Xiao Shu realized what was happening and nodded frantically, "Yes, yes, I've eaten here a few times before. Although Xiao Jing's mom's cooking was delicious before, it was just like the kind of delicious home-cooked food. This time, it's even better than what you get in restaurants."

"Wow, so is it really because of the potatoes that they're different?"

"I also find it amazing."

"But this is normal. My mom used to cook with stale vegetables and the food didn't taste good."

"Yes, yes, the more expensive fruits always taste better."

"Yu Jing, why don't you just send us the store link later? We'll have our family buy some when we get home."

"Yes, yes, your sister is amazing! She can grow such delicious vegetables. Could you please give us the link?"

Yu Jing was also quite happy to provide the link, as it would both help Xia Shiyu attract business and allow everyone to enjoy delicious food.

"Okay, I'll send you the link when I get home. Just wait."

"Ok"

The group of people happily dispersed. When Yu Jing got home that evening, she first sent a message to her cousin, saying that she had helped promote the potatoes among her classmates and that everyone would buy them.

Xia Shiyu raised an eyebrow upon seeing the message and asked Chen Yuzhu, "Yuzhu, are all the potatoes in our store sold out?"

"Yes, boss. There weren't many portions to begin with, and they were all snapped up as soon as they were released online."

As a result, Chen Yuzhu's backend was still displaying messages about buying potatoes. The few who managed to snag some were even more smug and were posting comments below, which was nothing short of showing off.

Xia Shiyu nodded, "Alright then."

She replied to Yu Jing directly, "The potatoes in the shop have been taken off the shelves, and even if they were put back on now, you probably wouldn't be able to buy them. Just help them make a list and I'll ship them to them separately. But this is just for this time; next time they'll have to go and grab them themselves."

Yu Jing only realized something was wrong after sending the message. She remembered that her sister's business was doing very well and she might not have enough stock. She didn't know if her classmates could manage to snag any items from the shop.

"Okay, okay, thank you so much, sister!"

Yu Jing happily shared the news with her classmates, saying that soon everyone would be able to eat delicious potatoes.

"Wow, thank you so much."

Thank you, Xiaojing.

Thank you, Xiaojing.
