Back to 90s she just wants to get rich

Chapter 263 262. I will keep it for you

Xiang Jin's family still made ten dishes including soup and vegetables for lunch, including one soup and nine dishes.

Soup, she made a lettuce and pork belly soup. The dishes are Sixi meatballs, boiled sausage, braised rabbit meat, ants climbing a tree, chopped pepper fish head, steamed sea bass, mapo tofu, boiled beef, shredded pot Chicken, and fried vegetables.

Looking at the different meals from their family yesterday, Grandpa Zeng said, "Girl Jin just knows how to cook, look at the dishes I cooked these two days without repetition."

Grandma Mo and Aunt Liao also said yes, and Aunt Liao said, "We eat with girl Jin every day, and I have learned a lot of dishes now."

Yang Juyun looked at her eldest daughter proudly.

Xiang Jin served each of them a bowl of tripe soup, "They are all home-cooked dishes, not worth mentioning. Besides, there are some repetitions in this dish. Look at this boiled sausage, fried vegetables, and The cooking method of this boiled beef is almost the same.”

Grandpa Zeng lowered his head and took a sip of the soup, "Well, this soup is delicious and fresh!"

"Yes, the color is also pretty, and it's milky white. It's warm in the stomach," Grandma Mo said with a nod and a smile.

Xiang Jin said, "Drink more if it tastes good, I still have the pot head."

After a meal, everyone had a good time with the guests and the host. Grandpa Zeng stayed for a while after eating, and then went back to deliver food to Mr. Hucai, while Grandma Mo and Aunt Liao stayed to help Xiang Jin and the others made dumplings.

Xiang Jin decided to make dumplings with three fillings and three colors today.

One is dumplings stuffed with celery and beef, the other is dumplings stuffed with lotus root and pork, and the other is stuffed with green onion and lamb.

Yan Chen gave her such a big piece of leg of lamb, they couldn't enjoy the delicious smell, but she liked it very much.

They asked her what to do next?
Xiang Jin said, "Chop the beef finely first, then wash and chop the celery.

The pork is also minced, and the lotus root is cut into very fine pieces. Oh, pay attention to the mud in the lotus root. If you find it, you need to clean it. After chopping it, sprinkle a little salt to marinate it first. Then pinch the water out of it.

I'll make the mutton stuffing by myself later," Xiang Jin took a cleaned lotus root and cut two slices to show them, "Hey, it's just this big lotus root. "

After she gave her orders, Xiang Jin's mother and Aunt Liao began to cut the meat and the lotus root, and Grandma Mo rolled up her sleeves and said, "Then I'll make the noodles."

Xiang Jin said, "Grandma Mo, don't worry, I'm preparing some ingredients," she picked up a red pumpkin that her grandfathers gave her before and peeled it.

After she peeled the top of the pumpkin a little, then cut it off, then dug out the flesh of the small toothed pumpkin, cleaned the pumpkin, cut it into thin slices, and put it on a plate.

Then she picked up another carrot, peeled the carrot and cut it into thin slices, put it on a plate, and then put the two plates in the pot to steam.

Grandma Mo said that she would come to light the fire, but Xiang Jin refused to let her because she was afraid that she would get her clothes dirty, so she asked Xiang Lan to cook the pot.

Grandma Mo said, "Hey, what is this? I wear it every day at home." Then she sat down in front of the stove, picked up a handful of firewood, lit it, and put it in the stove.

Xiang Lan looked at her sister, and Xiang Jin waved, "Go, go, you have nothing to do here."

Xiang Lan turned around and ran out, and then Xiang Jin went to get her spinach. She decided that she would make a jade crystal dumpling today.

Half an hour later, the pumpkin slices and carrot slices were steamed, and they were steamed to a pulp. Xiang Jin took them out of the pot, and put them aside to cool down. With the boiling water in the pot, she again Boil the spinach in water, then scoop it out and set aside.

"Grandma Mo, it's all right, there's no need to burn the pot anymore."

"No more burning?" Grandma Mo stood up.

Xiang Jin said, "Well, don't burn it," Xiang Jin poured the steamed carrot and pumpkin slices into two bowls respectively, and then picked up a small spoon to grind the pumpkin slices into a puree shape.

Grandma Mo asked, "Should the carrot be crushed like that?"

Xiang Jin nodded, "Well, yes, they have to be rolled out, and later they will be filtered into two colors of water, and then mixed into the noodles, so that the dumplings made by then will be colorful.

This dumpling is something to eat, so no pigments or harmful substances can be added. If we want to make it a good-looking color, we still have to extract it from the ingredients. "

After hearing this, Grandma Mo couldn't help but looked at her and joked, "Why do you have so many ideas, girl?"

Xiang Jin said, "Actually, it's not anymore. I mainly want to make it to give my uncles and aunts an idea, and then let their food have something special, so that they can be more competitive in the town."

It's a pity that I don't have a blasting machine and a juicer. If I had these things, she would be able to pump out the juice she wanted in three or two strokes. How could it be so troublesome.

Grandma Mo immediately found a spoon and crushed the carrot with her.

Aunt Liao heard it and said, "Girl Jin is like this, always thinking about us relatives and friends."

Xiang Jin said, "Actually, it's not all. I saw it in a book, so I thought I'd give it a try."

Aunt Liao said with a smile, "You're still modest."

Grandma Mo also laughed.

After Xiang Jin crushed the pumpkin puree, she went to deal with the spinach. She had to squeeze some spinach juice out.

"Girl Jin, you said that the carrot juice needs to be filtered, how do you do it?" Just as she put two new plastic bags on her hands, the carrots on Grandma Mo's side were also crushed. All right.

"Oh, it's okay, Grandma Mo, I'll fix it where you put it," Xiang Jin replied.

"okay!"

Xiang Jin squeezed out the spinach juice, then went to find a piece of clean gauze, covered it on a deeper bowl, then mixed the cool white boiled into the carrot puree, and then stirred scattered.

"The pumpkin puree can be directly mixed into the noodles, but because the carrot has a stalk, there will be granular substances in it, so it has to be filtered out," she asked Grandma Mo to help her put the piece of gauze on the After stretching the mouth of the bowl, she is about to start filtering.

Grandma Mo nodded and complied.

After Xiang Jin prepared these things, she asked her mother to knead the dough, and she came to adjust the stuffing, "Mom, one dough for one color, and the spinach juice will be mixed into the dough for making crystal dumplings later." , and the other two colors use that common flour."

"Okay," her mother put down the work she was doing, and quickly replaced her with her.

"Girl Jin, come and have a look, is this meat suitable for Auntie?" Aunt Liao waved at Jin.

Xiang Jin walked over and looked at it with chopsticks, then said, "It's all right, auntie, it's just right!"

Aunt Liao laughed openly, "Then why don't you look at this beef again?"

"This beef is chopped just right!"

"Oh, so I also have the talent to cook?" Aunt Liao laughed more and more heartily.

Grandma Mo and the others just laughed.

Xiang Jin said, "You have a talent for cooking, and the dishes you cook are not bad."

Aunt Liao's eyes narrowed, "Oh, hey, with your words, Auntie can feel relieved."

Xiang Jin didn't know whether to laugh or cry, and saw Aunt Liao then said, "Girl Jin, come and make the stuffing, do you want me to chop that mutton for you, so that we can go faster?"

Xiang Jin thought for a while and nodded in agreement.

So Aunt Liao took the piece of mutton again and began to cut it, "Oh, girl Jin, how did you keep this meat? Your house doesn't have a refrigerator, and it hasn't been marinated, and it's been almost a week, what? It’s still so fresh and the taste hasn’t changed?”

Xiang Jin said, "Do you know the people in the Northeast and Mongolia? Many of them don't use refrigerators in winter, because it's very cold there, and it snows heavily every day in winter, usually many degrees below zero.

They preserve food, especially meat products, directly put a tank in the yard, and then put all the fresh meat products directly into the tank, and it will freeze like an ice cube in a short while.

Some people don’t use tanks, just throw a snow pit in the yard, and then directly bury the fresh beef and mutton in the snow pit, and when they want to eat, they take a piece out of the snow pit, and then leave Those who fell continued to be buried in the snow pit.

As long as the snow doesn't melt, they can keep the ingredients in there forever, and the ingredients won't rot and deteriorate for at least a month or two, and they will still be as fresh as they are.

I just borrowed their method and buried the mutton in the snowdrift in the yard. "

Aunt Liao followed suit and said, "Hey, how smart are these people?"

Xiang Jin nodded, "Every place has its own unique way of life and habits, so many places are worth learning from."

"Well, it is!"

Today was not in a hurry, and Aunt Liao and Grandma Mo joined in, so Xiang Jin and the others made a total of six to seven hundred dumplings, and each color looked like more than 200 dumplings, and put more than six dustpans Woolen cloth.

Xiang Jin and the others planned this way. They would take fifty dumplings of each color and filling for their two uncles' family, which would be three hundred. Her grandmothers are currently separated from the two uncles. This gift has to be given separately, so I have to pick up a hundred from her grandparents.

Then there were Grandma Mo and Aunt Liao. She decided to give them twenty more of each kind, but both of them declined, saying that they had given away so many yesterday, and if they still took them today, then they would be fine. When do I have to eat?

Xiang Jin persuaded them that these kinds of fillings are different, you can try them all, and then compare which taste is better, if you like it, you can make it by yourself when you have time.

Xiang Jin also persuaded Aunt Liao, "Auntie, isn't your grandson coming tomorrow? In case he is not used to eating shrimp dumplings, you can cook him some other kinds of dumplings. These colorful dumplings are all beautiful. , kids should like it."

Aunt Liao was moved by her words, so she agreed to accept it. Grandma Mo thought that her old wife is a glutton and likes to eat all kinds of weird and different tastes, so after hesitating for a while, she decided to accept it. collected.

Because everyone ate dumplings in the morning, they didn't cook dumplings in the evening, but they ate dinner again at noon, so Xiang Jin and the others cooked a little porridge at night, and made a few random dishes for dinner.

Grandpa Zeng didn't come over after he went back to feed the dog at noon. He probably thought that everyone was busy making dumplings, but he didn't know how. It would be boring to sit here alone, so he just stayed with them. .

Xiang Jin asked Xiang Lan to call Grandpa Zeng over for dinner, and Grandma Mo said she should go back and call, and it happened that she took the dumpling back with her.

Aunt Liao said that she would also take the dumpling home first, so that the road would not be difficult later at night.

Xiang Jin had no problem with her, so Xiang Lan didn't have to go.

After they left, Xiang Lan ran up to her sister and asked her quietly, "Sister, how much money did Aunt Liao and Grandma Mo seal for you?"

Xiang Jin said, "I don't know," she hasn't taken it apart yet.

Then Xiang Lan whispered to her with a smile on her face, "Let me tell you, Aunt Liao and Grandma Mo both gave me a hundred."

"One hundred?" Xiang Jin was surprised, "So much?"

"Well," Xiang Lan nodded, and then took out 200 yuan from her bag to show her, "Hey, this one was given by Aunt Liao with a red line on it, this temporary new one is Grandma Mo gave it to them."

Xiang Jin was taken aback for a moment. Nowadays, people usually give red envelopes for the New Year to their children in the range of several or ten yuan. For some families with good conditions, it is considered a great deal to seal 20 yuan, but they gave They sealed it for a hundred, and Xiang Lan's big and small people sealed it for a hundred, so she probably did, and then she took out the two red envelopes in her pocket and opened them, and it turned out to be a hundred. , I have to say that this is a big deal for them.

Xiang Jin asked Xiang Lan to keep her own money, and then she took the money and red envelopes in her hand to find her mother. She felt that she had to talk to her mother about this and let her know.

Her mother was also very surprised when she saw her, so Xiang Jin suggested to her mother, "Aunt Liao's grandson is coming tomorrow. Although we will not be at home tomorrow, I think we should leave a red envelope for them. In this way, you can Give him my 100 yuan," said Xiang Jin, and directly stuffed the 100 yuan in her mother's hand.

Her mother recovered from the surprise, "It should be, it should be," but her mother didn't take her money, "I have it here, it's your Aunt Liao gave it to you, so you can take it."

Seeing that she insisted on refusing to accept it, Xiang Jin gave up, "Okay, then you can give it, but when you give her the red envelope, don't give it in front of Grandpa Zeng and Grandma Mo, we don't know if they are What kind of idea, don't put others in danger when the time comes."

Her mother said, "I know, I know, I'll let your Aunt Liao come in and cook something for me later, and then you will block your Grandma Mo and Grandpa Zeng outside."

"can!"

After dinner, Xiang Jin's mother asked Grandma Mo and Grandpa Zeng to take care of A Hua and the puppies tomorrow. She said they would be back tomorrow afternoon.

Grandma Mo and Grandpa Zeng nodded in agreement, telling them to go back to their parents' house tomorrow without worry, since they are in everything at home, they will not go anywhere tomorrow.

Xiang Jin and her mother made up their minds, and then they said they were going back, so it was inconvenient for them to keep them, and they sent them directly to the door.

When she came back, Xiang Lan spread her hands to her mother, "Mom, you haven't given me and my sister the New Year's money today?"

"Oh, oh, wait," Yang Juyun said, and took out a handful of money from the bag, and took out two coins from it, and handed them to the two sisters.

Xiang Lan got a ten-yuan ticket, and Xiang Jin got a fifty-yuan ticket.

Seeing that she was only given ten yuan, but her sister took fifty yuan, Xiang Lan was a little reluctant to accept it.

Her mother said, "What are you doing with your mouth? You are a child, why do you need so much money? Also, you don't do anything every day. Everything in our family is supported by your sister." Yes, you should get fifty for your sister."

Xiang Lan said, "Everything in the house is supported by my sister. It's too little to give her [-], why don't you have to give my sister [-]? You see, Aunt Liao and Grandma Mo are both You gave us one hundred, isn't it too stingy for you to give us this?"

Yang Juyun was stunned for a moment, then looked at Xiang Jin with a flicker of eyes, a little uncomfortable.

"Okay, Xianglan, don't talk nonsense, our mother's money will be reserved for our future life, so much to talk about if you have the money?" As she spoke, she directly transferred the 50 yuan her mother handed her. Stuffed it to Xiang Lan, "Hey, I sealed this for you!"

"Thank you, sister," the little girl immediately smiled, and then casually took away her mother's ten yuan.

"Oh?" Her mother looked at Xiang Jin in disapproval, "Why did you give her so much money?"

Xiang Lan wrinkled her nose and hummed unconvincedly at her mother.

Yang Juyun frowned when she saw it, stared at her and said, "Bring all your money to me, and I will keep it for you."

Xiang Lan didn't do it, she just said that she kept it herself.

Yang Juyun said, "Hey, why do you have so much money in your hands, a child? What if you lose it?"

Xiang Lan said, "I won't lose it! I haven't lost the money I saved before, and I won't lose the money I saved later. I want to keep my own money!"

"Hey..." Yang Juyun was about to argue with her, when Xiang Jin said, "Isn't it okay to let her keep it by herself? Why do you have to leave it to you?"

"Well, that's right, it's not that you don't have money, so why confiscate my money?" Xiang Lan agreed with what her sister said.

Yang Juyun said, "Girl, I didn't mean that, I was just afraid that she would lose it, so I'll keep it for her!"

Xiang Jin said, "She should learn to manage her own money since she was a child, instead of you helping her manage it? She is a girl, only she is used to dealing with big and small money since she was a child, and she has a certain financial foundation. She will grow up in the future. You won't be easily tempted by money, so you won't easily go astray, you know?

You keep it for her?She can't see or touch the money. Is the money yours or hers?

Let me tell you that she will always be thinking about it, the more she doesn't have it, the more she wants to have it.

It's just like when she couldn't eat those good things when she was at Lao Xiang's house, the more she wanted to eat, she would look for something to eat, and Lao Xiang's family said it was delicious, have you forgotten?

You see, after we left Lao Xiang's house, we lived on our own. We can eat and wear as we please. Every day we eat and wear well, and she can drink whatever is delicious. Then you see, she is doing well now. eat?

no!As long as she has eaten it, tasted it, possessed it, and knows what it tastes like, she won't worry about it anymore. "

Don't think that she doesn't know what her mother is thinking, in fact, she is just like most parents, she just wants to cheat the children's money to the adults.

If she hadn't had her own opinion and had the absolute right to speak at home, her mother would have asked her to hand over the money.

Xiang Lan nodded vigorously, "Well, I can't even eat it now! Even if Xiang Yao and the others sometimes bring me food, I may not be able to eat it."

Xiang Jin's mother fell silent.

Xiang Jin continued, "So from now on, as long as it's her own money, whether she earns it by digging medicine, or what the relatives and friends around us give her during the holidays, she will keep it all by herself. Don't get involved with her money."

When Xiang Lan saw her sister defending herself, she adored her sister very much, and at the same time looked at her mother expectantly.

After being silent for a while, Yang Juyun finally nodded, "That's fine, after that, you two sisters will take care of your own money!"

Xiang Jin thought to herself: Of course, she has to keep all her money by herself!When she is full and has her own ID card, she will go directly to open an account of her own!

Seeing that she had finally let go and would no longer covet her money, Xiang Lan jumped up happily, "Yeah!"

Seeing her vigor, Xiang Jin said, "You can keep the money yourself, but you can't spend it carelessly, you know?"

"Yeah, yeah, I know!" The little girl nodded emphatically, "Don't worry, I won't spend it recklessly, I've saved all that money well."

Xiang Jin said, "When grandpa comes back, use his ID card to go to the town to open an account, and you can deposit the whole money directly in the bank, and you can keep those bills in your hand." , for my pocket money at that time."

"Ah? Use grandpa's ID card to open an account? Then the money will belong to grandpa and not mine?" The little girl was not very happy.

Xiang Jin said, "No, the bank card has a password, as long as you don't tell others the password, the bank card is in charge of you, and no one else can take the money, and it will always belong to you.

Remember, you can't give your bank card to others, and you can't tell others your bank password, including me and your mother. You have to control this by yourself. "

The little girl nodded vigorously, "Oh, I see, you can't give the bank card to others, and you can't tell the password of the bank card to others, including sister and mother, so the money will always be mine!"

"Well, that's right!"

The little girl raised her head, "Okay, I'll save the whole hundred at that time," said the little girl happily, "I'll go to grandpa's house tomorrow, and I'll earn some New Year's greeting money when I come back. I can save some more."

Xiang Jin couldn't help rolling her eyes, and taught her, "You can't always rely on others to take it from you, the key to making money and saving money is to know yourself?

It’s good to dig medicinal materials like you before, and it’s also good to collect the waste products at home. In short, you have to remember that your money must be earned with your own hands, and only what you earn is truly yours. , what others give to you can only be regarded as friendship and sponsorship from others, and charity to you. People with backbone will not rely on others! "

"Oh, I know."

Seeing how she seemed to understand, Xiang Jin didn't ask her to understand everything right away, take her time, and when she instilled it bit by bit in the future, she would always understand.

"Sister, can I go to the street to sell stewed pork with my mother on the weekend? Is that something I sold, and the money will belong to me?" Followed the little girl and asked.

Xiang Jin's mother poked her finger, "You think it's beautiful, you sell the meat I marinated? I still use you to sell it? They are regular customers who come to me directly to buy. What's the matter with you standing there, seeing a person come to buy stewed pork and want to share my money? That's worth it!"

The little girl hummed and chirped.

Xiang Jin said, "The most important thing for you now is to study hard. When you read the book in the future, how many catties of braised pork can you buy with that month's salary? Let me tell you more than one end!"

"Wow, so many?" The little girl was immediately surprised.

Xiang Jin nodded, "Yes!"

"Okay, then I will listen to my sister!"
