Chapter 005: The Ugly Girl Who Sells Dumplings

Finished. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info Jiang Ying's eyes darkened. This picked up the grave of someone's granddaughter, wore the clothes that they burned for their granddaughter, and asked them where they offended, isn't this looking for a beating?

"Mother-in-law, I'm sorry, I ......" I didn't make a name for myself after holding it for a long time, Jiang Ying was so embarrassed that her face turned red. How can this be explained?

"It's okay, it's okay. The mother-in-law waved her hand. "If you don't dislike it, let's come to the old woman's house for a meal in the evening. Seeing that Jiang Ying shook her head like a rattle to refuse, her mother-in-law spoke again. "I've lost so much weight that I don't have any clothes to wear, so don't support the young man's face. ”

"Thank you...... Thank you mother-in-law. Jiang Ying touched her nose in a daze, and her voice was like a gnat.

"Go and hand in today's work, the old woman is waiting for you at the door. Looking at Jiang Ying, whose face was almost burning, her mother-in-law patted her on the back. "I don't blame you. ”

-------

"Eat, it's not enough to have it in the pot. The mother-in-law put a big bowl of rice in front of Jiang Ying. "I'm hungry. ”

Jiang Ying nodded, no longer polite, picked up the bowl and devoured it. Seeing that she was no longer restrained, her mother-in-law also opened the conversation box and chattered while eating.

"My wife's surname is Jiang, and my neighbors usually call me Granny Jiang. The son and daughter-in-law left early, leaving only a granddaughter for the old woman. Last year, there was an epidemic in the city, and my old bones were fine, but my poor granddaughter did not escape this catastrophe. Granny Jiang let out a long sigh, "A few days ago was her death day, and the old woman burned some clothes made by herself for her, and there is nothing you have in the middle." ”

Seeing that Jiang Ying finished eating the rice in her hand, she quickly took the bowl and handed it over. "How did the girl fall into this field. ”

"My name is Jiang Ying, I ......" Jiang Ying choked and didn't know how to answer.

"Needless to say, if you feel embarrassed, the old woman is not the unreasonable person. Seeing Jiang Ying's momentary speech, Granny Jiang said intimately.

"I ...... There are no more fathers and mothers. Jiang Ying lowered her head and picked up the rice in the bowl. "There is no home either. ”

Granny Jiang nodded knowingly, she estimated that Jiang Ying should have lost her father and mother when the epidemic broke last year, so she didn't say anything more.

"If the little girl doesn't dislike it, she will live here in the future. While she was eating, Granny Jiang took out a dozen clothes from the cabinet. "These are the clothes of the original granddaughter, and I have never been willing to throw them away, and now I am just right for you to wear. ”

She looked at Jiang Ying's hands that had been burned with several blisters after brushing the tarpaulin for a day, and her expression was a little distressed. "This is not something you can do as a little girl. The old woman has her own breakfast stall, and a few days ago the pot was broken and sent to the blacksmith shop to make up for it, and the two days were free, so she went to help the old neighbor. If you feel embarrassed, come to the old woman's early stall to help, although you can't earn a lot of money, you can still afford to support you. I don't want you to do anything, just call grandma. ”

Jiang Ying did not refuse. In other words, in the face of such a lonely old man, she had no way to refuse. Ten thousand steps back, she really needs a place to stay. Although the laundry is wrapped, it is not a long-term plan after all, and with such a relatively stable foothold, she can also plan the next few days.

"Grandma. She nodded obediently and shouted.

"Hey, hey. Granny Jiang's face turned into a flower.

"Grandma, what do your breakfast stalls sell?" Jiang Ying took the initiative to put away the dishes and asked while washing the dishes.

"Scallion oil noodles and baked cakes have been sold for decades. Will Ying girl do it?" for fear that Jiang Ying would be embarrassed, Granny Jiang hurriedly added. "If you can't do it, just help grandma clean up the dishes and chopsticks. ”

"Yes, yes. Jiang Ying frowned, always feeling as if something was spinning in her head, and she couldn't catch it. It took a while to speak. "Grandma, I took a look around the city, and it seems that there are no dumplings for sale?"

"Water feet?" Granny Jiang looked suspicious. "What's that?"

"Dumpling bait?" Thinking that maybe it was a different name, Jiang Ying asked another way. "It is to make the dough into a flat and round crust, put the meat and vegetables on the bread, and cook it in water. Didn't you?"

Granny Jiang shook her head. "What are you talking about? ”

Jiang Ying finally figured out what the ungraspable thing in her mind was. Outside the city, shepherd's cabbage is everywhere, and it is so old that it is blooming. The people here don't even know what dumplings are, let alone take the shepherd's cabbage to make dumplings. If there are no dumplings, there will definitely be no wontons, Jiang Ying, who has figured out the joints, wiped her hands clean, and threw herself beside Granny Jiang with a smile.

"Grandma, I'll make you something new tomorrow to taste, and if you think it's delicious, then I'll help you make money." Granny Jiang looked at Jiang Ying, who was suddenly excited, a little confused, but she still nodded and said, "Okay." ”

Lying in the quilt in the small room prepared for her by Granny Jiang, Jiang Ying touched the fuyao on her arm, and was about to fall asleep, but the sound of fuyao sounded in her ears.

"What?"

"I didn't call you?" Jiang Ying was startled, and then reacted. "You can feel it when I touch you?"

"......" didn't move for a long time, and it didn't seem that she wanted to deal with her very much.

"Fuyao. Jiang Ying squinted her eyes and talked to Fuyao without a stubble. "Before you were injured, you must have been a very powerful dryad, right?"

“…… Yes. ”

"It's really immodest. Jiang Yingbian flattened her mouth. "You're so good, why are you still beaten to the point that you only have a root?"

"A lot of times strength doesn't mean everything. Fuyao's voice paused, and for some reason, it sounded a little muffled.

"That is, there are many more powerful people than you. She let out a long yawn, her voice already tinged with a heavy tiredness. "You've been soaking in the pool for so long, how can you get better......"

After waiting for a long time without waiting for a response, Jiang Ying finally fell asleep with her eyes closed, and it took a long time before a sigh sounded, of course she couldn't hear it.

"You can't help me. ”

After sleeping comfortably, Jiang Ying got up early the next morning, said hello to Granny Jiang and went straight to the outside of the city to pick camellia. It's past the season, and the shepherd's cabbage looks much older. She picked and chose for more than an hour, and finally pinched out a small bag of fresh and tender shepherd's cabbage, and carried it back to Granny Jiang's house.

Skillfully choose to wash, blanch in water, and then finely chop and mix with minced half-fat and half-lean pork stuffing and seasoning to whip vigorously. Granny Jiang, who was watching her busy all the time, couldn't help but open her mouth, "Ying girl, isn't this just the weeds that grow outside, can you eat this?"

Jiang Ying rolled out the dough while turning back to Granny Jiang and smiled playfully, "Just look at it." ”

After a while, the round dumplings were already colliding with each other and floating in the boiling water. After pouring a small dish of balsamic vinegar and dripping a few drops of chili oil, Jiang Ying put the boiled shepherd's cabbage dumplings on a plate and served them on the table. "Grandma, try it. ”

While greeting Granny Jiang, Jiang Ying herself also carried one in the saucer. Gently poke a little dumpling skin, and the golden buttery soup can't wait to overflow. The emerald green shepherd's cabbage and the fat and thin meat filling create a very harmonious beauty. She couldn't wait to put the dumplings in the vinegar dish, dip them and stuff them into her mouth.

Seeing that Jiang Ying had eaten a dumpling, Granny Jiang also took one and put it in a vinegar dish and dipped it, trying to eat it.

"Grandma, is it delicious?" Jiang Ying put down her chopsticks and looked nervously at Granny Jiang's expression. No one eats the shepherd's cabbage that has grown outside the city for so long, and she doesn't know if this thing is to the taste of the people here.

Granny Jiang nodded, swallowed and spoke. "It was delicious. What do you think, girl, to be able to make such food? ”

"I didn't think I could have it. My mother used to make it for me to eat, and I learned it. Jiang Ying smiled. "Grandma, do you think everyone will like to sell dumplings at the breakfast stall?" she thought for a while and added, "If you think you may not like the shepherd's cabbage, we can also change it to other fillings, which are all delicious." ”

"You can give it a try, but everyone doesn't know this thing, I'm afraid it's not easy to sell. Granny Jiang said.

"We can give two or three noodles to each of the guests who come to the stall to eat scallion oil noodles to try, and some people think they are delicious and eat more, and the reputation will naturally spread." The more Jiang Ying thought about it, the more excited she became.

"Good, good. It's all up to you. "Granny Jiang doesn't have much idea about making money, and the income from the early stall is enough for her to support herself and Jiang Ying. Compared with making money, Jiang Ying's desire to help her make money together warmed her heart. "Later, you and grandma will go to the blacksmith shop to get the repaired pot back, and tomorrow we will try to sell this, dumplings?"

"Hmm!" Jiang Ying nodded vigorously and smiled happily.
