Chapter Eighty-Three: I Don't Know What I Say
"Or else?" Bai Jinli asked rhetorically.
"You drew it yourself?"
"Yes."
"Are you really the rumored Bai Jinli?"
"It's like a fake!"
"What about being stupid and selfish, lazy and grumpy?" Carpenter Tan looked suspicious of life.
"Rumors are not credible, seeing is believing."
"Oh, so maybe everyone is blind? Misunderstood you. ”
"If you go out and talk like that, you'll be easily beaten." Bai Jinli said that she didn't want to complain.
Is this man a rectum? It was so straightforward to speak.
"How do you know?" Carpenter Tan looked up again, his face full of shock.
“??? So, have you really been beaten up for not paying attention to what you said? "Bai Jinli black question mark face.
"It turns out that I was beaten before because of what I said? But what's the problem? Carpenter Tan fell into deep thought.
“……!!” Bai Jinli.
Okay, I've confirmed my eyes, this person's IQ is 0.5, and he doesn't know that he owes so much.
"No problem. After reading the drawings, do you think you can type out the two cabinets I drew? Bai Jinli asked with a serious expression.
"Yes, it will take time."
"Okay, the drawings are handed over to you, just hit two cabinets on the top, how to calculate the price?"
"What kind of material do you want for wood? When to do it? Carpenter Tan asked rhetorically.
"It's the same material as the cabinet you hit before, as soon as possible."
"Yes, one or two or three dollars."
"Okay. I also need a recliner, a few stools, a dining table, rattan chairs will you make? ”
"Rattan chairs? What kind? Carpenter Tan frowned and said he didn't understand.
"You're waiting a while, I'll draw it for you."
Soon, Bai Jinli went into the house again to draw a drawing of the recliner she wanted, a half-eggshell suspended movable rattan chair.
In order to prevent Carpenter Tan from being unable to do it, she drew a more conventional chair that resembles a swing.
"No, look at it."
"To tell you the truth, I haven't done any of these things you painted, and I haven't seen them, and it takes time." Carpenter Tan looked at the newly handed drawings for a long time.
"Yes, give you time, let me know when you're ready."
"yes, okay."
"You have to estimate the price, remember it first, I'll give you two taels of silver first, and the last one will be given to you when you're done." Bai Jinli spoke.
"Okay, if I don't have anything else, I'll go back first."
"Okay, Carpenter Tan walks slowly."
Carpenter Tan took the drawing into his arms, and suddenly turned back when he walked to the door.
"Bai Jinli, it's not that I lied to you, that crayfish really can't be eaten, only fools eat that kind of thing."
"You don't understand, I have a way." Bai Jinli didn't know how to explain to him, so she simply opened her mouth.
"Oh, it looks like people are right to say you're stupid."
“……!” Looking at Carpenter Tan's back, Bai Jinli said that it seemed as if she threw a shoe and smashed it on his head.
Ya obviously cares about her words, how can it come out of his mouth, so disgusting?
Why can't crayfish be eaten? Obviously those of them can't do a good job?
Before, they said that pigs can't be eaten when they go into the water? As a result, she did it after she finished processing it, and it didn't taste delicious?
After the cabinets and other furniture were done, Bai Jinli washed her hands and went into the kitchen to start making spicy crayfish.
"Bai Meng, you come and light the fire."
"No problem, sister-in-law." Bai Meng sat aside and began to add firewood and pull the bellows to light the fire.
Dried chili, ginger, green onions, sugar and other conditioning preparations, Bai Jinli first poured oil into the hot pot, and then put the dried chili, green onions and other things in and stir-fried.
After the fragrance of the seasoning came, Bai Jinli put the prepared crayfish into the pot, added various seasonings in turn, and let Bai Meng make the fire slightly bigger and start stir-frying.
Soon, the crayfish began to color, Bai Jinli added an appropriate amount of water to the pot, covered the pot and began to simmer.
When the time is about the same, stir-fry again, and the crayfish is ready.
"Sister-in-law, this one smells so good, it should be delicious." Bai Meng couldn't help but swallow his saliva.
"Uh-huh, even if you have a little bit of an eye, let me tell you, this must be delicious." Bai Jinli almost couldn't hold back, she was about to drool.
The rice was already cooked, and seeing that the time was almost up, Bai Jinli asked Bai Meng and Bai Mo to serve the rice to the table outside.
As soon as Mrs. Li came out of the backyard, she smelled the smell of rice.
Originally, she was still happy, but when she saw the bowls of rice on the table, she suddenly pulled her face.
Oh my God, this is such a waste, how much rice did you eat in one meal?
In the past, they all ate porridge, a bowl of water with more than a dozen clear grains of rice floating on it.
Today's meal wasted enough rice for their family to eat for half a year.
Oops, it's so distressing.
"Mother, how is it, I made all my lunch today." Bai Jinli naturally saw the change in Mrs. Li's expression, and pretended not to know.
"Pear, you're doing a great job, it's just that it's a waste of a lot of rice, isn't it?"
"It doesn't matter, it's all bought with the money from selling herbs. You think, the herbs are dug in the mountains, and you don't have to waste anything. In this way, it is equivalent to the rice that we picked up for nothing.
Since it was picked up for nothing, why don't you eat it? Right, mother? Bai Jinli flickered casually.
"Okay, since it's my daughter's craft, it's naturally good, and what my daughter said is right." Mrs. Li could only swallow this unhappiness.
If it were someone else cooking today, Mrs. Li would have already gone up with a broom to beat people.
There's no way, the daughter of her own family has to be spoiled while kneeling.
As soon as the meal was served, White Jasmine and the others working in the fields came in through the door.
"Hey, I smelled the fragrance as soon as I entered the door, little sister, I heard that you cooked today? You're too good, aren't you? Bai Tianqi put down his hoe and ran over to take a look.
"Pear, are you really all doing this?" Old Man Bai sniffed, a little incredulous.
"Look at what you said, our family has the most powerful pears, who else can she have?" Mrs. Li grabbed the talk.
"Well, there's even rice, that's great." Old Man Bai put his beloved teapot on the dining table and went to wash his hands.
They had just come back from the field, and they were hot and tired, and even though they were hungry, they had to wash first.
Taking advantage of this effort, Bai Jinli stared at Mrs. Li again and asked her to wash her hands, and then handed over the chopsticks.
Although Zhang and Niu didn't speak, they smelled the aroma of rice, and after seeing the spicy and exciting fish and crayfish, they still swallowed their saliva almost inaudibly.
"Alright, let's eat."
"Huh!"
Everyone gathered around, picked up the fragrant rice, and began to eat.
The meat of the boiled fish is tender and refreshing, the taste is full, the color and taste are good, and the mouth is fragrant after eating, and the aftertaste is endless.
The bean sprouts inside are crisp and chewy.
As for the crayfish, it looks delicious, but I really don't know how to start.
After Bai Jinli ate a bowl of rice to cushion her stomach, she began to peel lobsters with her bare hands.
Because the people here say that crayfish can't be eaten, the crayfish they catch are all quite fat.
Bai Jinli first unscrewed the shrimp claws from the end and ate the meat inside.
Then pinch the head and body of the shrimp with your hands, and twist them lightly to separate the two.
Twisted the tail of the shrimp again, and removed the shrimp line, revealing the lobster meat inside.
She put the peeled lobster meat in the soup and dipped it for a while, and then put it in Mrs. Li's bowl.
"Mother, you taste it first."
"Okay." Mrs. Li picked it up and stuffed it into her mouth, and the tender shrimp meat with the spicy soup was extremely delicious in one bite.
The taste is tender and the taste is stimulating, and people can't help but want to have another one.
"Pear, this thing is really delicious!" After Mrs. Li finished eating, her eyes lit up.
Everyone stared at Mrs. Li, and after hearing her words, they also learned Bai Jinli's method of peeling shrimp and began to peel them.
After eating the shrimp meat in their mouths with great difficulty, it really tasted good, and everyone ate it while snorting at the taste.
For Bai Qi and Old Man Bai, this crayfish is laborious in the end.
Not to mention, there is still little meat, and it is always difficult to eat.
If they were given a choice, they would rather eat pork in large gulps.
"Mother, pear, this is the shrimp meat I peeled, you can eat it." After Zhang tasted two, he took the initiative to help Mrs. Li and Bai Jinli peel shrimp.
"Thank you, sister-in-law."
"Grandma, sister-in-law, I'll help you peel shrimp too." Bai Mo saw that he was also busy here.
For these, Bai Jinli did not refuse at all, and even ate very refreshingly.
After the meal was finished, everyone's hands were full of oil, and the feeling of fullness was also very strong.
Wiping her hands with paper, Mrs. Li took out her precious fragrant pancreas and asked Bai Jinli to wash her hands, and by the way, she also let others wash them too.
"This thing is really good." The first time the old man used this, he praised it after washing his hands.
"Hmph, what's the matter, this is given to me by my daughter, you just need to use it, don't think about it." Mrs. Li put away the fragrant pancreas in distress.
"Mother, it's okay, I'll go to the county and buy it for you when you run out."
"That's going to cost money, so let's save some money." Mrs. Li is still full of reluctance.
"Okay."
After eating, everyone began to pack up their things, drink water and sweep the floor, and then they heard a knock on the door.
"Are you there? Hurry up and gather at the entrance of the village, the village chief rang the bell at the head of the village and asked everyone to go over and gather. ”
"What's wrong?" Old Man Bai asked the person at the door.
"I don't know, the village chief should have something important to inform, let's hurry over and take a look."
After the man finished speaking, he hurried to the entrance of the village.
"Okay, don't clean up yet, lock the door and go to the village entrance together, I don't know what happened, the village chief even rang the bell."
As the head of the family, Old Man Bai spoke with a serious face at this moment.
"Hey, I know Dad, I'll come right away." Zhang and Niu in the kitchen took off their aprons and hurriedly walked out.
