Chapter 62: Mustard Seeds
Jiang Xiaoqiao, who came to the vegetable market, frowned, it is still winter here, it is said that it is a variety of vegetables, it is better to say that it is simple winter vegetables such as cabbage, potatoes and carrots, and there are basically no green vegetables, which is also a technology that proves that this place has not yet developed greenhouse vegetables.
Jiang Xiaoqiao bought twenty catties of rice, which is really expensive! A pound costs two cents and a pound of food stamps, ten pounds of rice and two yuan are gone, and I also bought some cornmeal and white flour, and the money can be earned slowly, but I finally got out of the cage of the Jiang family, and I can't treat my sister badly, look at these few people who have yellow faces and thin muscles, no matter how good they are, they will be stunted in the future.
When I bought vegetables, I bought a cabbage, vermicelli, and a piece of tofu, which should be enough for these two days! If you don't have enough to eat, it's too late to buy now.
Halfway through, Jiang Xiaoqiao saw something good again, an old farmer threw a small pile of inconspicuous crooked melons and cracked dates in front of him like white radish! It's a pity that if you look closely, it's really not a white radish.
Jiang Xiaoqiao recognized that mustard gnocchi was a local dialect.
No, it's the local name of her own world, and she really doesn't know what it's called here.
But it doesn't seem to be anyone's interest.
But if you don't know how to make this thing, it really won't taste good.
That is, pickles or something.
It's a pity that she can do it, and every winter, her grandmother will always deliberately use this mustard gnocchi to make some lettuce for herself.
Jiang Xiaoqiao: I asked.
"Uncle! What kind of dish is this? How to sell? ”
The uncle coldly shrunk his hands in the sleeves of his clothes to keep warm, and when he heard someone ask, he hurriedly raised his head and answered.
"This is called mustard greens, buy some, but it's cheap, it's only a penny a pound, if you want all of this, I'll give you a cheaper." Take all the three cents! ”
This pile actually looks like it's forty or fifty pounds.
It seems that it is really hard to sell.
Otherwise, the uncle wouldn't have bullied a little girl, and she didn't know to take a cheap Jiang Xiaoqiao.
Jiang Mai hurriedly grabbed the eldest sister, "Sister, this is not delicious." ”
You can't be deceived by others, Jiang Wheat saw that his classmates had eaten it, fried it with chili peppers, and cut it into thin strips, which was terrible.
It's not as good as white radish, and white radish is only a penny a pound.
Jiang Xiaoqiao patted Jiang Mai, knowing her sister's worries, "This is not delicious!" ”
Jiang Mai nodded, "Our classmate did it, she took it to school, but it was unpalatable!" ”
Uncle looked at it, this time it was completely useless.
This little girl will definitely not buy it.
He pulled his head down, put his hand back into his sleeve, and sighed.
It's called something.
Next year, I won't grow this thing, who would know that this thing is so unpalatable, and no one likes it if they have eaten it.
Jiang Xiaoqiao looked at the uncle's rickety figure and shook his head, "Uncle, if I want it all, can it be cheaper by a dime, after all, this thing is not delicious, and others don't want it, and it's not easy to sell if you keep it!" ”
The uncle was startled, this girl wants to buy it.
Seems like a fool.
I know it's not delicious, but I still want to buy it.
This is simply a boy with wealth falling from the sky.
"Okay, two cents is two cents!"
It may not be sold for a day here, and two cents is also money, otherwise you can only eat it yourself, and you don't want to eat this thing, and there are still a lot of harvests in the cellar this year, and you can't eat them all, and this penny is a penny when you sell it.
Jiang Mai was anxious, "Sister, I know it's not delicious, why do you spend money to buy it?" ”
She is really afraid that her eldest sister will spend money indiscriminately, the family has been turned upside down in the past few days, her parents divorced, and they followed Liu Xuemei to her uncle's house, although Jiang Mai is young, she also knows that there is not much money in the family.
Jiang Xiaoqiao took out two cents and handed it to the uncle, who simply put a whole pile of mustard greens on the ground into his own woven bag and handed it to Jiang Xiaoqiao.
"Here, girl! I'll send you the bag! ”
Jiang Xiaoqiao carried a bag of mustard greens and pulled Jiang wheat to go home.
Jiang Mai was anxious and angry.
As soon as he entered the house, he sued Liu Xuemei.
"Mom, if you want to talk about my eldest sister, she started to go crazy again, and spent two cents for nothing to buy a bunch of mustard greens that no one wants to eat, and I persuaded her not to buy them, but she still insisted on going her own way."
Jiang Mai is really worried, because now there are only two people in the family to earn money, and the three of them have to rely on the eldest sister and mother to support, and when they come to the county seat, they need money for everything.
If the eldest sister insists on going her own way like when she was at Liu Jianjun's house at that time, they probably won't even be able to go to school at that time.
Jiang Mai doesn't want to stop going to school early, she has good academic performance, she wants to go to high school, and she wants to go to college in the future, she wants to have a good way out.
But what is needed is not a waste like the eldest sister.
Liu Xuemei glanced at the bag in Jiang Xiaoqiao's hand, "Big girl, what is this?" ”
Jiang Xiaoqiao patted Jiang Mai's head.
"Dare to sue! You can do it! ”
Jiang Mai was taken aback by Jiang Xiaoqiao.
Jiang Xiaoqiao opened the bag, poured all the mustard greens into the basin, poured water, pulled a small bench and sat down, and began to wash with a brush.
"Don't worry, your sister is not stupid, this thing is not delicious because they can't make it, look at me, I promise that you won't stop eating when I make it."
Such an affordable dish can be made in a large tank, and when the time comes, you can bring some to your grandparents.
Such a cheap thing is just right.
Jiang Mai was curious, and squatted down to help Jiang Xiaoqiao wash the mustard greens.
"Eldest sister, can this really be delicious?"
"Don't worry, haven't you ever eaten your eldest sister's sour cabbage, isn't it delicious? This time, I will make a new trick to satisfy your cravings! ”
Jiang Xiaoqiao is washed and rubbed into shreds with a rubber, made a hot pot on the honeycomb coal stove, poured oil, cut some shredded green onions, poured it into the high heat, sprinkled the salt, and removed from the pot.
When I put it in a big jar, it was filled with a large jar, and the lid was closed on it, and it was placed there.
Jiang Mai didn't know how to do it, and it was too simple to look at.
The most important thing is whether it is cooked or not.
Can this be delicious?
It's too ............ It's so easy, isn't it?
At noon, Jiang Xiaoqiao stuffed a pot of white rice and made a large pot of cabbage and tofu vermicelli.
Although there is no meat, the taste is still fragrant all over the building.
Liu Tiezhu hurried back with a lunch box and smelled the smell.
When he got off work, Liu Tiezhu remembered that he didn't have anything to eat in his dormitory, and there were five people in this family, so he couldn't be hungry.
Hurriedly got a meal from the cafeteria, rushed back, and thought about asking Dazhu for a while to borrow a few lunch boxes for his sister and them to eat first, but as soon as he entered the building, he smelled the fragrance, and walked to his door! The stronger the taste.
When I pushed the door in, I saw Jiang Xiaoqiao bringing a porcelain basin to the table, a large pot of cabbage, tofu vermicelli, and rice, which looked delicious.
