Chapter 4 Soup Delivery

"Sihua'er, you watch the house at home, I'll go find Uncle Liu in Dongtou, I'll bring you something to eat later."

Uncle Liu is a blacksmith in the village, and his skills can only be regarded as average, but he is looking for pots and farm tools in the village, and the fees are fair.

"Uncle Liu, I want to make a stove." Wei Jin took his younger brother by the hand, knocked on the door in a proper manner, and stood at the door to speak crisply, making Uncle Liu and his family look stupid.

"Yo, Sanhua'er, is your head better? Come in quickly, my aunt will make you sugar water. ”

"No need for Auntie, I just asked Uncle Liu to make a stove, and the four flowers at home are alone, I don't worry."

Two days ago, I heard the people in the village say that Sanhuaer is not stupid, they still don't believe it, but now I look at it, isn't it stupid, I speak very politely, I know how to advance and retreat, and I know that I feel sorry for my sister.

"What kind of stove Sanhua'er wants to make, you tell the uncle, and the uncle will make it for you first."

Sanhua'er took out a piece of paper and put it in front of Uncle Liu.

"This is a picture I made, and I didn't draw it well." She smiled shyly, pointed to the picture and told Uncle Liu how to do it and what the effect would be.

In fact, the stove of the pot helmet is very simple, that is, there is one more roasting chamber, and the pot on it is not for stir-frying, but an iron pot with a flat bottom.

"What are you? It's not like cooking, is it? ”

"Well, this is for pot helmets." Wei Jin didn't hide anything, anyway, everyone knew about it when the time came, and this thing couldn't be hidden. Besides, although novel food can attract buyers, and others will follow the trend and divert the flow of customers, there are thousands of people in the world who can cook, and there is not only one that can sell it.

All kinds of food are all about taste, which is the foundation of good business.

The technical content of this pot helmet stove is not high, and Uncle Liu said that it can be done in three days. The salary is also very realistic, and even a little low. Although their family is not rich, they are better than these children, and the capital is recovered, and it is enough to charge some manual fees as appropriate, and they can't scrape oil and water on the children. And Ren Sanhuaer also said that the drawings would be given to him, and if someone asked him to make this stove in the future, all the money earned would be his.

Carrying a basket full of vegetables and holding Dabao in one hand, Wei Jin deliberately walked around the village, and went to the eldest sister to say a few words, and stuffed a sweet cane stalk for the little niece.

Seeing that her sister was completely well, Da Hua'er was also happy for her, and took advantage of her mother-in-law's lack of attention, and stuffed a meatloaf for her and asked her to take it back and eat it with the two little ones.

To be precise, the life in their village is still very good, they can eat meat three or four times a month, and it is said that in a village with bad terrain, it is a blessing to eat twice a year.

When Wei Jin returned home, he saw Sihua'er washing clothes in the yard, and hurriedly ran over to help. But to be honest, she hadn't washed it before, and she hadn't washed her original body because of her bad head, so she couldn't use a mallet, so she could only help wash the clothes washed by Sihua'er through water, and then dry them in the yard.

"Shall we cook pimple soup at night? The eldest sister gave me a meatloaf, and I cooked it in a pot and cut it into pieces, which was just right with gnocchi soup. ”

She didn't just make a stove when she went out this time, but she found all the places in the village where she could buy spices.

Next door to Uncle Liu's house in the east is the family that makes sauce, she smelled the taste, it was upright, and she spent three copper plates to buy a small bowl, and a bottle of sauce.

The eldest sister's concubine's family has been making vinegar for generations, and the vinegar they eat in their family is also bought by the eldest sister from the concubine's family. In addition, there are pepper powder and some spices, which should have been brought back from the town by the eldest sister and the second sister, and these precious things are not sold in the village. When Wei Jin was the happiest, she actually discovered the existence of chili peppers. In another time and space, this thing would have been hundreds of years later, but now with this seasoning, many dishes can be made, and her pot helmet business can be carried out smoothly.

The pimple soup at night was made by Wei Jin, and the vegetables were cut into four flowers, the girl's movements were neat, and her hands were up and down, and Wei Jin's eyes were big when she saw it.

The gnocchi soup does not require much flour, and it can be mixed with multigrain noodles. To be delicious, the order in which you season and cook the side dishes is very important.

Sihuaer and Dabao can eat a little spicy, so Wei Jin cooks hot and sour pimple soup. The soup was boiled by two small crucian carp sent by Aunt Qin next door this morning. The little crucian carp has many spines, and Wei Jin was afraid that Dabao would not spit out the thorns and stuck his throat, so he deliberately used bamboo drains to filter out the thorns. The fish is stewed and the soup is milky white.

She scooped up two bowls first, sprinkled some salt and chopped coriander, and asked Sihuaer and Dabao to drink a bowl to cushion their stomachs. After finishing here, I started to cook the vegetables, cut some of the stick-headed vegetables into thin strips of chopsticks, boiled until soft, put shredded eggs, shredded fungus, shredded carrots, put in salt, crushed pepper, sauce and a little vinegar, and then picked a little chili sauce made by the second sister and stirred it in, tasted the taste and felt sour and spicy.

"Third sister, I want to taste it too." Dabao finished drinking his bowl of soup and saw the third sister scooping up the colorful soup from the pot to drink, and he wanted to drink it too.

"Come, you all taste it, and I'll put the gnocchi in when it's right."

Her pimple soup is actually more like noodle fish, and she likes to add pickled vegetables in the southwest, also called sour and hot gnocchi soup, but it is very different from the sour and hot taste that Wei Jin is making now.

Compared with Dabao's preference for the taste of thick oil red sauce, the taste of Sihuaer is lighter. The concentration of this hot and sour soup is just right, and there are various vegetables to harmonize the taste, she drank two sips, and felt that she could drink it without adding gnocchi.

It's definitely not okay to don't add gnocchi, and you'll be hungry at night. Wei Jin quickly dialed the adjusted gnocchi in, thought about it, scooped up a pot, and mixed another egg into the remaining gnocchi, and the soup was even more beautiful. She used a porcelain bowl to fill the soup with the ingredients, put it in a basket, and covered it with a cotton cloth.

"I'll go and send some to my eldest sister's house, Sihua'er, you burn the cake and take Dabao to eat it first, don't wait for me." She took off her apron and explained, "The eldest sister will definitely attract gossip when I stuff cakes for me, and we will send a little food to the past, that is, there are contacts, and it will not cost much to gag their mouths." ”

"Hmm." Sihua'er nodded, "Be careful, we'll wait for you to come back and eat together." ”

Wei Jin was not hypocritical, and walked quickly to the eldest sister's house with the basket.

"Sanhua'er, what are you doing here?"

"I made some soup and sent it to my eldest sister to taste." Sanhua'er kept smiling all the way, and after she cleaned up, she showed a beautiful face, although because the conditions were not very good, she was very thin, but in the end, the bones were there, and she looked a lot better than ordinary little girls.

When she arrived at the eldest sister's house, it was the eldest sister's concubine who saw her first.

"Yo, Sanhua'er is here again?"

Again, it's an echo of the words.
