Chapter 174: United
Li Gengtian looked at his youngest son happily, and felt that there was nothing wrong with not studying, and doing business.
Fang's was also moved by Li Changyu's words, she hesitated: "I didn't expect it to be on the side, it's this bamboo shoot, I think it was braised a little last time, and it tastes good." If you don't put oil, you can use it as a marinade and then dry it, and you can also eat it as a snack. β
Li Gengtian hurriedly said: "I remember, I remember." The dried bamboo shoots you made this time were delicious, and they were made with braised pork soup, right? β
Fang Shi nodded and said, "I was reluctant to use the soup, so I used the soup to burn the bamboo shoots, and I didn't put anything on the side, and when I boiled it dry, I felt that the bamboo shoots were extraordinarily fragrant." β
Li Changyu said to her impatiently: "Mother, then you can try to make this bamboo shoot." You have to try to do this often, and don't mix it with expensive ingredients - it costs a lot of money - as long as it tastes new and can be stored. Do a good job of your son to help you sell. Help you save some money to keep for your grandchildren in the future. β
Everyone burst into laughter.
Seeing him like that, Fang pursed his lips and smiled: "Okay, mother, use your brains and hands more." β
Even Li Gengtian was happy now, he felt that his daughter-in-law would definitely be able to make good things.
At this time, there was a crisp call of "grandpa" from the yard, and then Li Jinxiang ran in with his hands in his mouth and snorted hot.
Li Mingrui smiled and narrowed his old eyes and shouted, "Jin Xiang, why didn't you come earlier?" Your aunt has made a lot of dishes, and it would be nice if you came early and had dinner here. β
Li Gengtian looked at the courtyard and saw that there was no one behind, so he said to her in a reproachful tone: "You came alone?" Why didn't you call Changyunli, it was dark outside. You're too bold. β
The Fang clan also looked at Jin Xiang approvingly.
Li Jinxiang hurriedly ran to his grandfather, stuffed his hand into his hand, and said to his uncle: "Changyun sent me to the gate of the courtyard, he has something to find Zhang Yang." β
Li Gengtian was relieved to be silent.
Jin Xiang made a fuss and shouted at Changfeng and Changyu: "Brother Changfeng, Changyu, won't you come back to me?" Hmph, didn't you bring me anything? I also made shoes for you. β
When Li Changyu saw her coming, his face was full of smiles: "Sister Jin Xiang." When didn't I bring something for you? It's just that there is something going on today, and I want to wait until tomorrow to go to the second uncle's. Shoes? And I asked you to make a purse for me, did you do it? β
Li Jinxiang immediately quarreled with him, saying that the things he brought back were not yet visible, but he asked for something for himself.
Li Gengtian and his wife saw that their niece and son were arguing, and they only laughed and watched from the side - this is a drama that his son will stage every time he comes back.
Li Changfeng went into the room and took out two exquisite boxes. With a smile, he handed it to Jin Xiang and said, "This is what my aunt bought for you; Here are a pair of silver earrings, which I bought for you. Brother Changfeng doesn't make money, he is still relying on people to feed, and he can't afford to buy good things, so he went back to the county school to hold a poetry competition, and I got ten taels of silver, so I helped my family buy things. Changyu has been in business for a few months and has made a little money. He's sure to have something good for you. β
Li Jinxiang took the box happily, and glanced at Li Changyu with a look on his face, with an expression that he was about to take out something good.
Li Changyu saw that his brother had harmed him, so he sighed at him with a bitter face, and went into the room to get the gift.
He went into the room and found a lotus-colored material that he had bought for Jin Xiang, which was not very luxurious, but it was very eye-catching in this village; I thought about it. And he took out the embroidered brocade from his bosom and took it out with him.
When Jin Xiang saw the material, she was so happy that she couldn't close her mouth - this material made clothes and didn't envy people to death!
Then he saw the embroidered brocade and exclaimed, "This is so beautiful." That's too ......, though It's too valuable, what am I going to do here? β
Li Changyu said embarrassedly: "Why don't you use a small screen to make decorations?" Isn't it just the right time to give you a dowry? β
He secretly scolded himself for being too stupid, and even Jin Xiang said that this thing was useless. He actually wanted to send chrysanthemums.
Fang's and Li Gengtian also said that the inlaid screen is good, and the colors on it are also very good-looking, and if they make other things, it will be a waste of this good material.
Jin Xiang hurriedly glared at Changyu and quickly put everything away. Thinking that the screen is good, it is time for her to save the dowry, and her face turned red when she thought of this.
She hurriedly turned to the Fang clan and changed the subject: "Auntie, I want to discuss things with you." Chrysanthemums let us all think about the same food to sell, but I made several things, but it didn't last long. Your tea and rice are so good, help me think of ideas. β
When Fang Shi heard this, he glanced at Li Changyu and couldn't help but smile: "We were still talking about this just now. β
So he said what Li Changyu told her again.
Jin Xiang was overjoyed when she heard this, and hurriedly asked Fang how to make that bamboo shoot.
Fang smiled at her and said, "This is also not in a hurry. It's late tonight, and you come over tomorrow, let's think about it together. If you make something good and let Changyu help sell it, you can still save some dowry miles after you earn money. β
Everyone laughed, and Jin Xiang blushed.
Let's talk about the Zheng family, after Zhang Huai and Li Changyu left, Chrysanthemum said to Aoki: "Brother, when the secret recipe for filling sausages is sold next year, we will buy land and build a house in Xiatangji." β
Aoki's consideration is no longer limited to the village, and as soon as he hears Chrysanthemum's words, he understands what she means - this is to preemptively occupy a place in Xiatangji.
Regardless of whether Xiatangji can develop in the future, it is necessary to occupy a piece of land first.
He nodded and said, "Yes, I want to buy it." If you wait for the pond to gather fire before buying, it may be too late. β
He asked again, "Chrysanthemum, do you want to make other things to sell?" β
Chrysanthemum smiled: "Bracket! I suddenly realized that there was a lot to do. But I can't take care of it for a while, so take your time. Anyway, Changyu hasn't gained a firm foothold in Qinghui yet. We can't count on the Chen family for everything, let alone Master Fang. You have to make something for yourself, so that people will be more interested in your stuff. β
Aoki nodded, seeing that she was nesting in the fire bucket and didn't want to move, thinking that her body was really not good, it was very cold in winter, and she also suffered a lot from filling sausages a while ago, so she felt very distressed.
He thought for a while and said to Chrysanthemum: "I think you should let Liu Xiaomei and Li Jinxiang try to make some too, didn't you say that their cooking skills are also good, and many people have multiple ideas, you can't think about everything alone." β
Chrysanthemum smiled happily: "Brother is right." I've told them about it. Now each of them is thinking about something. When you think about it, let everyone taste it, and see if you can take it out for takeout; If you can sell it, discuss whether there is a more effortless and easier way to reduce costs. β
Aoki's eyes lit up and he said, "That's a good idea." If they had money to earn, they would have to work harder than they usually cooked. β
Chrysanthemum "fluttered" and smiled: "Isn't it! Not to mention Liu Xiaomei and Li Jinxiang, who love to cook, but I gave her a task to Meizi - let her and her grandmother improve the taste of the chili flakes and pickled ginger, and make sure to make a good taste. These two things are very useful. β
Aoki asked, "Then what did Liu Xiaomei and Jin Xiang do?" β
Chrysanthemum said: "Liu Xiaomei is frying melon seeds; Jin Xiangli, I didn't say what to let her do, told her to go on her own. There are also bamboo and forest, Xiaoxiu and Xiaocui, all told them, telling them to think of making out the same food. It must be made from what our farmers produce, and the ingredients used cannot be too expensive. β
She smirked, feeling that she had done a very wise move - this was equivalent to setting up a food research and development team, and what could not be done?
She never underestimated these people.
If it weren't for these ordinary people, could a civilization of thousands of years be built by one or two outstanding people? It is not yet accumulated from life by generations of ancestors.
This uses an earthen stove to cook rice, the person who cooks has a pot on the pot, and the pot is under the pot, and the heat is very difficult to master, so many people are impatient, and they have burned for a lifetime, and the craft has not grown, and their personal interests are different, some people just hate cooking, and you let her ponder these, it is simply impossible to produce results.
So, she only looks for people who are good cooks and love to cook something fresh.
For this reason, she also specially greeted Shi Niang, and asked Shi Grandma to pay attention to it - her tea and rice skills are stronger than chrysanthemums - if she makes a good thing, she can earn a lot of money.
Shi Niang happily agreed-she saw Chrysanthemum earn money with her own eyes, and she also took her own family to earn it, of course she believed in her and was grateful to her.
Aoki saw the smug appearance of the chrysanthemum, thinking of a bunch of female babies getting together, taking out the same food as if they were competing, and laughed out loud.
Busy and busy, it is finally the Chinese New Year's Eve.
Although the harvest in the fields has not changed much this year, the pigs fed by everyone have seen results.
Unlike in previous years, it was good to be able to kill a pig at home, and some of them had to save the pig until the spring or when the wheat was harvested in order to sell it at a good price. This year, every family has been killed with pigs. The most pleasing thing is that there is still a big fat pig left in the pen after killing a pig, and some families even have two, which are left for the spring to kill and sell.
Although not every family has made a fortune like the Zheng familyβthis is what everyone thinks in privateβit is conceivable how happy the peasant family is to have an extra income of a few taels of silver at the end of the year, and the fat pigs to be slaughtered in the pig pen.
Therefore, Qingnan Village is unprecedentedly lively during the Chinese New Year this year.
After the Chinese New Year's Eve dinner, Zhang Huai came to Zheng's house with Zhang Yang as usual, and Xiaoshi and Dog Egg also followed, and Dog Egg also brought two small jars that Mei Zituo handed over to Chrysanthemum.
A few people happily paid New Year's greetings to Zheng Changhe and the Yang family, Zhang Huai sat next to Aoki, and a few small ones sat down around the fire bucket of chrysanthemums.
