Back to 90s she just wants to get rich

Chapter 258 257. You are so troublesome
"What's the matter, look at that pouty mouth that could hang a soy sauce bottle?"

As soon as they got home, Xiang Jin's grandfather and her mother saw Xiang Lan's displeased look, so her grandfather asked.

Xiang Lan groaned, gave her sister an angry sideways glance, and then sat down on the small stool next to her, without speaking or making a sound.

Xiang Jin, her grandfather and her mother looked at Xiang Jin, and her mother asked, "What's the matter, is this a fight with someone outside or a quarrel?"

Xiang Lan retorted, "I didn't quarrel or fight with anyone!"

Her mother frowned, stared at her and reprimanded, "Then you didn't quarrel or fight with anyone, so why do you put on such a face?"

Xiang Lan felt uncomfortable at first, and felt even more aggrieved by her mother's reprimand, so she yelled back at her with red eyes, "Everything you do every day is my fault, why don't you say anything about my sister? "

"Hey, what does this have to do with your sister?" Yang Juyun frowned even deeper.

Xiang Lan glared at her mother and became annoyed, "It's fine if she teaches those people in Wantou how to cook, at least they didn't deal with our family, but what's the matter with her teaching that woman Hu Yulan?

That woman is so bad, and their family is all black-hearted and black-hearted. My sister has forgotten how they treated our family back then! "

Hearing this, Yang Juyun looked at Xiang Jin with a somewhat unhappy expression, "Yes, girl, it's fine if you teach others, why are you still teaching her?!"

Xiang Jin glanced at the mother and daughter angrily, "I said you have shallow eyelids, but you still don't believe me," she said, walking to the side stool and sitting down.

Yang Juyun didn't quite understand what she heard, and her expression was a little puzzled.

Xiang Jin then said to them, "Haven't you heard that it's better to resolve an enemy than to end it? It's not a big deal in the first place, why should we treat others wrongly and not forgive them for the rest of our lives?
In the final analysis, it is caused by the word "poor". People go to high places and water flows to low places. The laws of nature are people. Who doesn't want to live a prosperous and healthy life at home?
But one person is not rich if one person is rich, and several people are not rich if they are rich. Only when everyone is rich is rich.

Our family opened a stewed meat shop, several of us grew vegetables in greenhouses, and earned tens of hundreds of dollars every day. And the jealousy thing, okay?

From the fact that some people frequently ask Aunt Liao and Grandpa Zeng for vegetable seeds recently, it can be seen how envious and jealous they are of our current life.

Some people envy and envy are just envious and jealous, but some people will take action when they are jealous, either stealing you or punishing you.

Don't think that if we have a dog in our family, everything will be fine, but a dog is a dog after all, not a human being. No matter how smart a dog is, it can't change its mind.

The Chinese New Year is coming soon, and the most important dishes of our family will be on the market soon. At this juncture, we must not take it lightly, otherwise the busy work of the previous few months will be in vain.

The reason why I teach them to make those foods, which are fresh foods that are not available in our place, is to distract them from the vegetables in our several greenhouses.

I have to let them know that as long as they practice the food I taught them well, they will have a skill, and then they can open a shop on the street or in the county town to make money by themselves.

When the time comes to open your own shop and have your own business, people will only focus on their own business, so why care about your one-acre three-point land?

Well, if I don't teach them to do other things, then they will stare at your one-acre three-point land every day, how can you still be safe?Not on tenterhooks?
Besides, when someone comes to you to ask for vegetable seeds, you clearly know that they want to compete with you for business after planting them. If you look at the sky in a bay, you will bow your head and not look up. Do you give it to them or not? ?

Yes, we are at a disadvantage. By then, every household will grow those vegetables. Will they still be able to sell at a price?If we don't give it, and offend others, then they will be even more uncomfortable with us. Both sides will be unhappy, why bother?

Those who come to learn how to cook from me are thinking of opening a shop on the street. After I teach them, they will always read some of my good things, even if they are still facing us. I'm a little envious of planting in greenhouses, but I don't think that will be too strong.

Then Hu Yulan wants to learn how to make snacks, do you think she won't be able to learn if I don't promise her?Let me tell you, as long as one is persistent in doing a certain thing, there is always a way to accomplish it.

There are four or five families studying here today, and some of them have some friendship with their families. When the time comes, as long as they give them some good things, they will be stubborn and teach them half-heartedly.

Since she came to give in to me with a shy face today, and wanted to learn from me the recipes of those snacks, it means that their family also has the intention of opening a shop on the street to do business.

She begged me today, if I blocked her, then their family will definitely hate our family even more, although our family is not afraid of their family, but the old people said that it is better to offend a gentleman than a villain, Because villains are hard to guard against.

Anyway, those eating practices are all from me. Instead of letting her accept other people's affection and deepen the hatred for our family, why don't I go along with the flow, be more generous, and let her directly accept my affection, our two families Can the little grievances and grievances be stopped here, or even eliminated?
Otherwise, our family should always be on guard against other people's tricks on our family at any time?There are only those who are thieves for a thousand days, how can there be those who can guard against thieves for a thousand days, how tiring is that?Besides, didn't they all face it in front of so many people today? Didn't we promise not to trouble our family in the future? "

Her mother asked, "Is she really that committed?"

Xiang Jin nodded, "Yes!"

Xiang Lan pouted there, "Do you believe what she said?! Sis, when did you become so easy to talk?"

Xiang Jin said, "This is not a matter of speaking well or not, but a matter of people's attitude. There is a saying in Buddhism: To be kind to others is to be kind to oneself!
Since people have lowered their attitude so much and expressed goodwill to you, then we have to show an attitude too, don't we?Otherwise, people will underestimate our strength! "

The little girl fell silent, and Xiang Jin said, "Okay, don't get entangled there, since he has good intentions, then we have to give him a chance to reform himself, right?"

The little girl whimpered, "Okay, then I'll be more generous and stop being as knowledgeable as them."

"That's right," Xiang Jin reached out and squeezed her meaty face, and then looked at her mother, "Mom, today is the 28th of the twelfth lunar month, and the day after tomorrow will be Chinese New Year, what are you and my uncle doing?" When are you going to close down?"

Her mother said, "Closing business? Don't close business. There are a lot of people buying new year's goods recently. Our business with your uncles is booming every day.

Like our stewed meat, I have to stew at least three pots of meat every day on the street to sell it. I go to stew one pot in the morning, one pot at noon, and another pot in the afternoon. I sell it the next day, and I have to stew it at home when I come back. "

Xiang Lan asked, "With so many pots, how many catties of meat do you have to marinate in a day?"

Xiang Jin's mother said, "How many catties of meat? After a few pots, at least two hundred catties of meat will be available."

Xiang Lan was surprised, "Wow, there are so many?! What about the uncle and the second uncle, they sell the fruit and cat's ears every day, are they good?"

Their mother said, "What's wrong, your uncle and second uncle sell more than us every day, every day they sell five or six hundred catties, and everyone who buys has a big bag and a big bag to the house said.

They are now selling in four places. Your eldest aunt guards the shop, your eldest uncle, your second uncle, and your second aunt each carry a basket on their backs every day and sell at those crossroads. You, cousin Yang Hui and Yang Zhao The two brothers are in charge of deep-fried pork chops and cat ears every day. "

"Wow, five or six hundred catties, how much face do you have to make?" Xiang Lan was so surprised that his mouth opened into an "O" shape.

Xiang Jin said, "Pai Guoer doesn't need to knead the dough, it can be directly mixed into the batter, that is, the cat's ears need to be kneaded, but with so many adults, it's nothing to make a hundred catties of noodles every day." question."

The little girl said "Oh", and then Xiang Jin asked her mother, "So, you plan to do this business on the [-]th day?"

Her mother nodded, "Well, we plan to do another half day on the [-]th day, close in the afternoon, rest for a few days, and open the door on the sixth day."

Xiang Jin nodded, "Okay, then you can pour out the pot of brine in the town at that time, even though it is winter, it doesn't matter if you leave it for a few days, but there will be no one guarding it when the time comes, just in case What should I do if I get a mouse? Wait until the sixth day to make a new brine."

Her mother nodded, "OK!"

Then Xiang Jin asked her mother, "Then, should we buy some new year's goods?"

Her mother asked her what else was missing in their home?
Xiang Jin said, "Our family is short of everything, rice, noodles, meat, and vegetables. I mean, when visiting relatives during the New Year, do you want to prepare something for grandparents, grandma, and uncle?"

Her grandfather said, "What are you giving away? Don't buy it, don't give it away! I took so much that day, and it was dried sea fish, pheasant, fungus, fungus, and fruit. What else should I give away?" ? The ones sold on the street are all from our own homes.”

Xiang Jin looked at her mother, she didn't care anyway, and it was true that the things sold on the street might not be as valuable as the things she brought to the two of them that day, but what did it mean that her mother couldn't keep everything? You have to ask clearly.

Seeing her mother nodded to her, "Yes, your grandpa and uncles have all these things, and it's nothing special. In previous years, we just made some dumplings for them, or this year it's still the same. Make some dumplings for them."

"Make dumplings?! All right, then let's make some dumplings for them." Xiang Jin was taken aback for a moment, then nodded, and she would make several different kinds of dumplings for them. , make sure they like it.

Thinking of this, Xiang Jin asked her mother to give her a lump of noodles later, she would be useful at that time.

Her mother asked her how much?

She said that it was as big as a water ladle, and her mother nodded, "Okay, I will make it for you later."

Suddenly, she heard her grandfather say, "I'll discuss something with you too."

Everyone looked at him, and her grandfather continued, "This morning, the people at Xinfu Restaurant said that they would not come to collect the vegetables tomorrow, and the vegetable vendor owner also said that they would wait until the day after tomorrow." If the dishes are collected, they will not come to collect them.

The owner of the Xinfu restaurant said that they would wait until the eighth day of the first lunar month to collect, and the owner of the vegetable vendor also said that they would not come back until the sixth day of the lunar month.

So I will tell you that I will go back after the food is collected in the morning the day after tomorrow, and I will stay for a few days, and I will come back on the sixth day. "

"Are you going back?" Xiang Jin and the others were surprised.

Her grandfather nodded, "I've been here for more than half a year, and it's time to go back for the Chinese New Year."

Xiang Lan said, "Why do you want to go back to celebrate the New Year? Isn't it the same with us?"

Her grandfather laughed and said, "There is also a [-]th day for the beggar. How can I say that I celebrate the New Year with you? People will laugh at it if it spreads."

Xiang Lan frowned, with a fierce look, "Who is making fun of you? Who dares to make fun of you!"

Xiang Jin's mother also yelled, "Yes, Dad, no one laughed at you, why don't you just celebrate the New Year here?"

Xiang Jin and her grandfather waved his hand, "It's better to go back to celebrate the New Year, or to go back to celebrate the New Year."

Her mother said, "You are pedantic!"

Her grandfather just smiled and said nothing.

Xiang Jin teased her mother, and whispered to her, "Grandpa is homesick."

Then her mother stopped talking, and then Xiang Jin asked, "Grandpa, what should I do if the vegetables grow in the field when they don't collect vegetables during the Chinese New Year?"

His grandfather said, "Grandpa Zeng contacted the vegetable merchant in the county today, and he will drive a pickup truck to collect vegetables in the next two days. The ones that have grown and the vegetables that are about to grow in a few days are all picked, and then let him take them away together, so that you don’t have to worry about those vegetables growing old.”

Xiang Jin nodded, "Okay!"

After the matter was settled, Xiang Jin and her mother went to the kitchen to make dinner. She lit the fire while her mother cooked. She burned two pots, one to marinate the meat and the other to cook.

After her mother was busy with the work at hand, she went to make a lump of noodles for him, and then asked her, "Do you think this is enough?"

Xiang Jin looked at it, then nodded, "That's it for now!"

Her mother asked her what she was going to do with this noodle?Is it pancakes or are you planning to make dumplings?

Xiang Jin said, "Wash your face."

"Washing your face?" Her mother was puzzled, "What is that for?"

Xiang Jin said, "I want to make a kind of clear noodles, and then make a kind of fresh food, but our current flour is the kind of high-gluten flour, you know?"

Her mother shook her head, and then said to Jin, "It's okay, you'll know when it's done." After she finished speaking, she added a firewood to the stove on both sides, then got up to wash her hands and then began to wash her face .

Her mother saw that she put the dough into the water and started washing it immediately, and said, "This is washing face?"

Xiang Jin nodded, "Ah, this is washing the face. After washing, it is natural to put it in water to wash."

Her mother asked again, "Then when are you going to wash this? After washing, what will you do?"

Xiang Jin said, "Keep washing until the dough can no longer shrink in size, the remaining dough is gluten, and the Chengfen is in the water, then let it settle, wait until the turbidity separates, and the viscous substance underneath dries out." After drying or drying, it becomes Chengfen."

Her mother then asked, "Then what did you make this sinking powder for?"

Xiang Jin corrected her, "It's Chengfen, not Shenfen. This one, keep it a secret for now. When I make it, you will know. Are you okay now? If you are okay, help me Wash some potatoes and let grandpa use our stone mill to grind some potato pulp with you later, I will make potato starch."

It’s inconvenient in this day and age. I don’t have clear noodles or potato starch. I only have sweet potato starch, so if she needs to use other starches, she has to make them herself. Fortunately, they still have potatoes to produce. Otherwise, she would not be able to make potato starch even if she wanted to.

Her mother was surprised, "How much potato starch do you need to make, and you need your grandpa to help?"

Xiang Jin said, "One catty of potatoes can produce [-] to [-] grams of potato starch. If I want five or six catties of potato starch, then you have to grind at least fifty or sixty catties of potato starch for me."

Her mother frowned, "Okay, I'll get it for you," and went next door to pick potatoes.

Xiang Jin asked her to call Xiang Lan over and let her cook the pot.

After a while, Xiang Lan ran in, "Sister, what delicious food are you cooking?"

Xiang Jin said, "You will know when the time comes."

"Then will we be able to eat tonight?" The little girl looked at her with bright eyes, with an expression of expectation on her face.

Xiang Jin shook his head, "No, it will take a few days."

"Ah? How many days will it take? What kind of food is this? It will take so long?" The little girl was surprised.

Xiang Jin said, "Because there are no materials now, we have to prepare materials."

"Oh, alright," the little girl immediately lost interest, and at the same time felt a little disappointed.

It took Xiang Jin almost two hours to wash the ball of dough, and her mothers also took about the same time as her to finish, and then asked her, "Then what should I do next?"

Xiang Jin said, "Wash a large stainless steel basin, then use the fine sieve to leak out the potato scum in it, then let the starch water wait for it to stand, and pour the clear water on it after the turbidity is separated. Drop it, and the rest is potato starch, then take out the potato starch and put it in a dustpan until it dries."

Her mother said, "This snowy day, how long will it take to dry?"

Xiang Jin said, "There is another way, that is, let's use some bricks to surround a stove in the empty room, then put the firewood burned in the pot into the stove, and then put the dustpan Put it on the stove, so that there is firewood under it and the water on it will evaporate faster."

Xiang Jin's mother couldn't help complaining, "You're such a troublemaker?!"

Xiang Jin gave her an annoyed look, "It's not troublesome to eat! You think I'm just here for our family to eat that meal, and I'll tell you that I'm paying for my uncle's business. It's a new trick."

Her mother said, "Are you doing this for your uncle and them?"

Xiang Jin said, "Otherwise, what do you think? Let me tell you, after I taught those people in Wantou how to make snacks, there must be many people going to open shops on the street after the Chinese New Year. Naturally, I have to give my uncle and them Bring out some unusual and unique food, so that the business will be more secure."

Her mother said, "Didn't you teach them different things than you taught your uncle?"

Xiang Jin said, "It's different, but there are fresh foods on Baobuqi Street. If they want to change their taste, then you will only eat one kind of food for the rest of your life. Why don't you do it?"

Her mother nodded, "Oh, yes, yes!"

Then Xiang Jin asked his grandfather, "Grandpa, do you still have some red pumpkins in your house?"

Her grandfather nodded, "There should be, what, you want to eat? Then let your mother tell your uncle and them tomorrow, and let them bring you two the day after tomorrow."

Xiang Jin nodded, "Yes!"

After breakfast the next day, Xiang Jin went to teach the people in Wantou how to cook as usual. This time, she taught them how to cook a few noodles and noodle soup. One is oil-splashing noodles, and the other is earthen pot noodles. The soup powder is mainly cross bridge rice noodles and pickled cabbage tofu fish rice noodles. Of course, this earthen pot noodles and these two rice noodles are just for them. On the one hand, tell them what to do, there is no actual operation, let them go home to practice when the time comes.

After returning home, Xiang Lan asked her sister, "Sister, I think the hot and sour noodles you made for us last time are delicious, why don't you teach them to make that?"

Xiang Jin gave her an annoyed sideways glance, "I'm stupid, if I teach them how to make hot and sour powder, don't I want to teach them how to splash that chili oil?
Don't forget, our mother needs to use the chili oil when selling cold salad, and let them learn it by then. They don't want to sell noodles and noodles, but sell cold salad instead. Wouldn't that mean they are competing with our family for business? ? "

"Oh oh, so sister, you kept this hand," the little girl nodded her head.

Xiang Jin stretched out her hand and pinched her chubby face again, "Remember, you can't just tell others that the reason why our family's business has not been affected until now is that there is a secret recipe." ?"

"Oh oh oh, got it!"

Xiang Jin explained to her, "Remember, outside, as long as I don't say anything, don't talk about it, you understand?"

"Yeah, I got it!"

"Go and play," Xiang Jin gave her a look.

The little girl ran away with an "oh" sound, and Xiang Jin turned to look at the clear noodles and potato starch she made.
