Chapter 13: Finally a little bit of the potential of crossing women
Unable to sleep when she opened her eyes, Li Miaomiao left the fox behind and began to think about any way to make money. Mushrooms and fungus are seasonal things, and they can't be opened immediately after picking, so it's obviously impossible to live on them in the future.
After thinking about it for a long time, she didn't come up with a reason, and Li Miaomiao didn't want to stay in bed anymore, so she got dressed and prepared to get up to make breakfast. Hey, it's not an ideal that wakes her up every day, it's life.
As soon as he pushed open the door, he saw a figure appear at the door of his house, Li Miaomiao's heart was alarmed, and it was still gray at this time, and he couldn't see who it was. Li Miaomiao grabbed the stick at the door of the bedroom casually, and waited for someone to get close to him and give him a blow on the head.
As the people got closer and closer, Li Miaomiao became more and more nervous, and was about to consider whether to shout to attract people later, when she heard someone speak.
"Miao Miao, you're up, I'm just here to call you."
It turned out to be Aunt Wang, and when she walked in, she saw it clearly, and hurriedly dropped the stick and welcomed Aunt Wang into the stove room. It's really dark in the bedroom now.
"Auntie, why did you come so early, it's not dawn yet, I thought I was a thief when I couldn't see you clearly, you see that my sticks are ready."
"Hehe, I'm scared of you, I should have spoken out earlier, not because I was afraid of making noise to the two children in the house", Aunt Wang said embarrassedly.
"I want to go early, we can sell it when we get the reward, and you can make the clothes for Lei Lei and Yanyan next day, and the new clothes have to be measured and cut, so it's troublesome." As he spoke, he took out two coarse dough cakes from his arms and handed them to Li Miaomiao, "You eat first, I told Da Niu, and when I wake up, I will come over and ask the two children to go to my house for breakfast."
Seeing that Aunt Wang arranged it so properly, Li Miaomiao didn't delay any longer, cleaned her face with cold water, brushed her teeth with a willow branch stained with coarse salt, and set off with Aunt Wang.
Walking to the foot of the mountain, the two cakes were just finished, and the sky was already dawning. Arriving at the deep mountain pass, Aunt Wang was still hesitant and did not dare to enter, so Li Miaomiao had to pull her forward.
"Auntie, just follow me."
Li Miaomiao took Aunt Wang straight to the place where there were many mushrooms that were marked yesterday, looking at so many mushrooms that Li Miaomiao picked yesterday, Aunt Wang couldn't care about being afraid, and happily picked them. Li Miaomiao didn't say much, and the two of them got busy.
It was estimated that there was a lot, so Li Miaomiao decisively stopped and took Aunt Wang to the place where the fungus grows. Seeing the scene in front of her, Aunt Wang couldn't believe her eyes, and even raised her hand to rub her eyes, but was stopped by Li Miaomiao's eyes.
"If you rub it like this, do you want your eyes anymore?"
Aunt Wang looked at her dirty hands and smirked.
When they filled the frames, they hurried home. Li Miaomiao told Aunt Wang to wash the mushrooms and fungus and then light them up first and then went back to her house.
Although she had changed into her changed summer clothes, because of the heavy fog on the mountain, and the dew and sweat on her body, Li Miaomiao was uncomfortable and panicked, so she had to go home and wash up briefly.
When I got home, the two children were not there, so I thought I was going to Aunt Wang's house. He threw all the mushrooms and fungus in the basket to the ground, and saw that the two children had returned.
"Why did you come back, I didn't play at Aunt Wang's house anymore."
"Sister, let's help you", the two children said sensibly.
"Well, sister, thank you", and a fragrant kiss on everyone's face, making the child shy and hide.
Add water to the cauldron and put two coarse firewood in the stove, Li Miaomiao went out to wash mushrooms with her younger siblings, although the two children were small, but they did things very quickly, and the three of them quickly washed and cooled.
Li Miaomiao quickly finished washing and changed her clothes, but fortunately she asked Aunt Wang to change her clothes yesterday, otherwise she wouldn't even have changed her clothes.
locked the door and took her younger siblings to Aunt Wang's house, where Aunt Wang had already packed up and was waiting for her. The fungus fungus picked yesterday has been dried and was properly put into the basket by Aunt Wang. The two of them did not delay any longer and set off for the town.
Along the way, the pace was fast, Aunt Wang looked at Li Miaomiao, and couldn't help asking, "Miaomiao, why do we only go to the mountain in the morning, we can also go at other times."
"In the morning, there is a lot of fog in the mountains, and there is miasma, and the hunters will not enter the mountains at this time, so it is better not to let others find the little things we find."
"Then what should we do if we get a miasma, I heard that the miasma is poisonous," Aunt Wang said worriedly.
"It's okay, let's not go too deep, we won't run into miasma", Wang was relieved when he heard Li Miaomiao's words.
The two came to the town but the market had just opened, because there were not many people coming and going.
When he arrived at the full building, Xiao Liu had just opened the door, and saw Li Miaomiao hurriedly introducing the door, which was a savior who solved the urgent needs of the owner, and he couldn't be lazy.
"Miss Miao Miao is here, I'll call the shopkeeper", said a cigarette and disappeared, not afraid that Li Miaomiao would steal the things in the store.
After a while, Shopkeeper Gu came over from behind, but he looked sad, like a frosted eggplant, and entered Li Miaomiao, and he was barely able to cope with it.
"Miao Miao is here, let Xiao Liuzi weigh the two of you first", and greeted Xiao Liu.
"Shopkeeper Gu, I still pick some black fungus here, do you see it?"
Looking at the fungus with good color, the shopkeeper Gu finally showed a smile and said that the girl has a lot of treasures, and sure enough, this black fungus is more scarce than mushrooms.
After Xiaoliu weighed it, he handed over the money, Aunt Wang got thirty-two catties of mushrooms and got ninety-six Wen, and Li Miaomiao got twenty catties of mushrooms and thirteen catties of fungus, a total of five hundred and ten Wen. Xiaoliu gave her five hangings and fifteen wen, and happily Li Miaomiao wanted to call loudly, the old lady is rich. And Aunt Wang has been stunned since she got the money, obviously happy.
Looking at the shopkeeper Gu who was still full of sadness, Li Miaomiao couldn't help but ask, "Shopkeeper, I see that you have something on your mind, but what happened?" After saying that, Li Miaomiao regretted it, and she didn't know anyone well, so why did she meddle in her affairs.
"It's not a big deal, it's just that there is an old man in the family, who has always lost his appetite recently, and he is not satisfied with any food in the town, and I am worried that he will get sick if he can't eat for a long time."
Shopkeeper Gu didn't mind letting Li Miaomiao breathe a sigh of relief, and comforted, "The old man is getting old, I can cook a few things to eat, I don't know if I can help?" ”
"Girl, give it a try, it can really make me and the old man open their mouths to eat, and the girl will be my benefactor in the future", the shopkeeper Gu was so excited that he even changed his title.
"It's just a few snacks, I don't know if it fits the old man's appetite, do you have a kitchen?"
Shopkeeper Gu took them to the kitchen in the backyard, the kitchen is not particularly big, but melons, fruits, vegetables, eggs, fish, meat, and all kinds of spices are available. Leaving Aunt Wang to help, the shopkeeper Gu hurriedly said goodbye, saying that he would go back and invite the old man over.
"Miao Miao, okay, don't offend people", Aunt Wang was nervous on the side.
"It's okay aunt, just a few things to eat, he doesn't care if he doesn't like it", Li Miaomiao comforted.
Li Miaomiao was going to make a few breakfast that she used to eat in her previous life, and when she saw that there was pumpkin, she first chopped the pumpkin and millet and stewed them in the casserole. She used to love to eat egg scones near the community, so she has studied for a long time, and now she uses them.
There are live noodles in the basin, it seems that they should be made into steamed buns or steamed buns, just to use, the noodles are soft and soft, just suitable for the elderly to eat. Let Aunt Wang chop the meat filling, she scalded the mushrooms sent with water to remove the fungus gas, drained the water and chopped it into the pork filling, and adjusted the ingredients Aunt Wang's live noodles are also good. Aunt Wang thought she was going to make steamed buns, but she didn't need to make noodles, she didn't know what she was going to do, so she only obediently helped her roll the dumpling skin, and saw that he didn't look like dumplings when wrapped, and he still opened his mouth on both sides.
Yes, Li Miaomiao wants to make potstickers, but because there is no pan, it takes a lot of effort to do it. Let Aunt Wang taste one first, but I feel that my fresh mouth is about to fall off, and Aunt Wang has never eaten such a delicious thing.
Since there were a lot of materials to prepare, I made three large plates. At this time, the dough that woke up was also good, Li Miaomiao began to make egg scones, thinking that it was estimated that there would be two people to eat, so he made four, and got it rolled into lettuce and pickles, but it was a pity that there was no ginger, otherwise it would be more perfect. Wrap the bottom with oiled paper, and the golden part that leaks out is on the plate, which is particularly beautiful.
The two staple foods are big things, Li Miaomiao simply fried a sour and hot shredded potatoes and stopped, these should be enough for two people to eat.
At this time, Shopkeeper Gu walked in with this old man in his sixties, this old man looked energetic, and he didn't look like a person with a loss of appetite at all.
Looking at the few things on the table, his eyes suddenly widened, and he looked like a foodie. Just as I was about to step forward to introduce, someone came in, and when I saw the moon-white robe, I didn't have to guess who it was.
Li Miaomiao forced herself to be calm and saluted politely. The three of them sat down in turn, and Li Miaomiao thoughtfully began to introduce, "This is called potstickers, and the filling is mushrooms and pork sent today, you can dip it in the sauce and eat it, and taste how it tastes."
After hearing this, several people picked up chopsticks, picked up a dipping sauce and sent it to their mouths, only to feel that the mouth was fragrant, and the freshness of the mushrooms and the fragrance of the pork completely fit together.
Even Gu Xingyun, who has never been a heavy mouthful, couldn't help but put a few more chopsticks, which made the old man frown.
"Little girl, what is this oil-paper wrap", the old man said with curiosity.
"It's called an egg scramble, it's very soft, you can always taste it."
Before Li Miaomiao finished speaking, the old man couldn't wait to pick it up and take a bite, it was really delicious, and the other two also tasted it, and they both thought it was delicious, so they put the pickles that they had always looked down on and put them into it to become extraordinarily delicious.
The shredded potatoes don't need to be introduced by Li Miaomiao, but they are sour and spicy, and they are fried again, and it is the first time they have eaten them, they are exceptionally fresh and refreshing, and even the millet porridge is extraordinarily sweet.
asked Xiaoliu to take them to the front with some snacks and tea, and a few people had a comfortable breakfast.
Li Miaomiao drank tea and couldn't help but think, isn't this the routine of crossing women, she can exchange a large sum of money for selling the recipe, this is her potential is stimulated. However, she doesn't expect to be able to sell her son, this is all simple food, she just hopes to make a good relationship, and maybe it will be of great use in the future.
