Chapter 11
Jiang Xiangyun gulped down the wonton soup, and he couldn't bear to take a bite, it was all bought with money.
After waiting for two pillars of incense, Jiang Xiangyun waited for Chen Qingmei, who had already poured a stomach full of water.
"Big sister." Jiang Xiangyun wiped his mouth, "What are you doing here?" ”
Chen Qingmei showed a smile on her face, "Later, let's pull some fabrics and buy some meat back." ”
Jiang Xiangyun was a little happy when he heard this, but he was worried, how could they have so much money, "Eldest sister, is it really?" ”
"Don't you believe me?" Chen Qingmei said, "Let's go, don't go back when it's too late." ”
"Got it, big sister."
Jiang Xiangyun followed behind Chen Qingmei, still a little excited, looking east and west in the town.
Chen Qingmei bought some things for daily use, although she said that she would buy fabrics and go back, but neither of them had the skills to make clothes, so it was better to buy ready-to-wear clothes and go back.
Of course, it is impossible to buy too good ready-to-wear clothes, they are all ordinary styles, but they are replaced with muslin, which is more comfortable to wear.
It was the first time Jiang Xiangyun had touched this kind of fabric, "This dress must be very comfortable to wear." ”
"We'll wear this from now on." Chen Qingmei's clothes were too scratchy before, and her skin was red when she wore them, so it was better to wear autumn clothes inside.
Chen Qingmei and Jiang Xiangyun's two bamboo baskets were full, so they planned to go back.
"It's getting hotter and hotter, if only I could eat something cool." Jiang Xiangyun wiped the sweat from his forehead, although it was very hot, he was still very happy in his heart.
"Cool stuff?" Chen Qingmei suddenly thought that if she could come over in the summer to make cold drinks or something, someone would definitely buy it, of course, there were fewer people in the town to buy it, and there were more people in the city who had more money, so someone would definitely buy it.
There are also ice cubes to preserve seafood in her space, as well as ice packs, when the time comes, make a cold drink, put it on overnight, it will definitely be able to cool down, and when it is hot, it will definitely be very comfortable to eat a bowl.
Jiang Xiangyun said, "What's wrong with the eldest sister?" We're going to hurry back, and it's going to be dark when we get back. ”
"No, we must be very tired when we go back in an ox cart and carry so many things on our backs." Chen Qingmei now has money on hand, so she is naturally more generous, and it would be stupid not to spend it if she has money.
"It costs a lot of money to ride in an ox cart, and we've already spent a lot of money." Jiang Xiangyun was a little worried.
"It's okay, it's not so much money, we still have to make money in the future." Chen Qingmei said, "Let's go to the city tomorrow." ”
"In the city?" Jiang Xiangyun opened her mouth wide, she had hoped to come to the town to see before, but she couldn't even think of coming to the city.
Chen Qingmei nodded, "Let's find an ox cart and go back first." ”
Under the shade of the trees, there are ox carts that specialize in giving people to make money, as long as everyone pays a few pennies, they can go back, of course, most people are distressed about money and are reluctant to spend money.
Chen Qingmei and Jiang Xiangyun got off the ox cart on the road in front of the village, and went back directly without doing the ox cart.
A few aunts met Chen Qingmei and Jiang Xiangyun, and asked, "Where did you two little girls go?" Carrying such a big bamboo basket. ”
"In the morning, I took my cousin to the town and carried a bamboo basket, but we didn't have any money, so we had to pick up some things that people didn't want and carry them back." Chen Qingmei said, "We haven't eaten yet, auntie, let's go back first." ”
"Okay, then you can go back quickly." The aunt said.
Chen Qingmei left with Jiang Xiangyun and went straight home.
As soon as I got home, I plugged in the latch and locked it, and the two of them wouldn't go out at night anyway.
"Let's cook, I'm hungry after a busy afternoon." Chen Qingmei said.
Jiang Xiangyun said, "Eldest sister, what are we going to eat at night?" ”
"It's not just the meat I bought, there's also vegetables, so let's make this."
"Huh? Let's eat meat now. Jiang Xiangyun also looked for the meat to be marinated, and waited until the Chinese New Year to eat it.
"Of course I eat it now, otherwise I won't let it go, I'm tired of a day, I have to eat something good." Chen Qingmei stretched, "I'll go put the things away, and you go wash and cut the meat." ”
"Okay."
Chen Qingmei put away the money from selling the jade pendant, took out other things, and then took a bag of ice powder from the space.
This ice powder was taken from the supermarket, and it was only discovered when Chen Qingmei was tidying up recently, and there was a box of ice powder, I don't know when I put it in.
Ice powder is just right for summer, just make it at night, put it on ice, and see if it's cold enough tomorrow.
The ice cubes placed in Chen Qingmei's space will not melt, which is the biggest benefit.
After boiling a pot of boiling water, just put a little ice powder powder into it, stir it up, and then put these into the space, put it on top of the ice cubes, and see if it can be solidified.
Chen Qingmei refined the fat into oil, the lean meat was braised with eggplant, and a chicken was also boiled, as well as a vegetarian dish, a soup, and a large pot of rice.
When an aunt passed by the Chen family, she still smelled the fragrance, but when she thought about it, she felt impossible, the Chen family was so poor, where could they afford to eat meat, it might be from another family.
"Wow, that's hearty." Jiang Xiangyun swallowed her saliva, she has lived so long, she has never eaten such a hearty meal until now, even if it is the New Year, her grandmother may not be able to let her eat on the table.
"Hurry up and eat, we're going to the city tomorrow." Chen Qingmei said.
"Sister, we're really going to the city."
"Of course, let's make some money in the summer."
Jiang Xiangyun said, "Can you still make money in summer?" That's not a heat death. ”
"Your eldest sister, I have a way." Chen Qingmei said.
Jiang Xiangyun naturally believes that Chen Qingmei can only eat meat after following the eldest sister.
After eating, Jiang Xiangyun was in charge of washing the dishes, and Chen Qingmei went to boil the bath water.
Early the next morning, Chen Qingmei took out the ice powder from the space, and sure enough, it had solidified, and it was very comfortable to take a bite of ice and cold.
"It's so cool." Jiang Xiangyun touched the bowl and shouted, "Wow, it's so comfortable." ”
Chen Qingmei poured a little strawberry jam on top of the ice powder in her bowl, "You taste it." ”
Jiang Xiangyun couldn't wait for a long time, such a cold thing, if only he could eat it in summer.
"It's delicious." Jiang Xiangyun nodded, "This red thing is sweet and sour, it's really delicious." ”
"There are others." Chen Qingmei poured a little more blueberry jam on top of it.
Jiang Xiangyun had a bowl of belly, his mouth was still very cold, and his teeth were a little chattering, "It's most comfortable to eat this in hot weather." ”
"Yes." Chen Qingmei nodded, "So it's best to sell this in the summer." ”
"But doesn't it melt in the summer? Where else is it sold? Jiang Xiangyun asked.
"I have a way." Chen Qingmei pointed to the wooden box, "Put the ice powder in here, that's it." ”
"What is this?" Jiang Xiangyun opened the wooden box and found that it was a piece of cloth, which looked like Chen Qingmei's clothes. "Eldest sister's clothes?"
"It's best to keep warm with clothes." In fact, there is a layer of foam box underneath, which is sealed, and when the time comes, you can keep the ice powder for a period of time and take it out to sell.
"I see." Jiang Xiangyun said, "But how can it become so icy." ”
"Just put a little cold water under the wooden box." Chen Qingmei said vaguely, "When the time comes, it will be able to be icy." ”
"I see, it's amazing." Jiang Xiangyun looked at Chen Qingmei with admiration, and Chen Qingmei was a little embarrassed.
