Chapter 51: Buns
The next morning, Jiang Han was the first to get up.
As soon as she entered the kitchen, she saw bacon hanging on the wall.
She remembered that her father said last night that Uncle Niu brought gifts to see him, and asked her to remember that after paying her salary, she would buy a few eggs and go to Niu's house to have a look and return a gift or something.
This piece of meat is about two or three catties, and when she saw it, she remembered her favorite fried pork with garlic sprouts, and she didn't know if there were garlic sprouts sold in the market here.
She opened the three packets of dry goods sent by Uncle Niu again, and found that they were some dried bamboo shoots, dried yellow flowers, and dried bean skin.
She smiled knowingly, this Uncle Niu is really a real person, this must have been specially sent to them to improve their lives!
Today is the first day that Yun Niang's sisters and brothers got rid of their black household status, and they should be celebrated.
In that case, let's have dried bamboo shoots and bacon with rice for breakfast today!
Thinking of this, she swallowed her saliva, took off the piece of bacon, picked up the knife and cut it, but the meat was so hard that it had to fight with the bricks.
It took a lot of effort for her to cut off three or four taels crookedly.
She soaked the bamboo shoots again, then washed the rice, and soaked the bacon with the rice washing water.
After cutting the sweet potatoes and boiling the thick rice with sweet potatoes on the fire, she boiled the pot of boiling water by the way, and then threw the bacon washed out with rice washing water into the boiling water to boil......
These are all taught by her mother, and the reason for teaching her is a little weak - once I wanted to try it myself, but the bacon was not cleaned well, and the whole family had diarrhea.
While she was handling the bacon, she remembered what had happened, and suddenly, her eyes were a little sour......
She rubbed her eyes, took a deep breath, scooped up the bacon that was almost cooked, and Yun Niang came in.
"Sister, I got up so early today, but what's the matter?"
"Why do you want me to be okay? I can't be too diligent, worrying about the food and clothing of the family? ”
"Oh, why is my sister so diligent today?"
"......" Jiang Han was speechless.
After a while, Xiao An also came in.
As soon as I saw her, I said: "Sister Yue, I went to see my dog just now, your medicine is very effective, I think it is much better than yesterday!" ”
"Humph!" Jiang Leng snorted and ignored him.
Xiao An said flatteringly: "In the morning, I will only drink half a bowl of porridge, and the remaining half bowl will be given to it!" ”
"I don't care about you, your dog, I can only eat half a bowl of your rice, and you are not allowed to give it this morning's meat!"
When Yun Niang heard this, she took a closer look at the things in her hand, and said worriedly: "Are you going to make bacon this morning?" We only ate fish together two days ago...... Now, can we often fish and meat? ”
"You say this, as if I am the eldest lady who doesn't know the suffering of others, and you are the poor girl who broke a penny into two pennies. I just thought that yesterday was a good day for you, and I didn't celebrate you yesterday, so I decided to make up for it this morning, and that's it! ”
Jiang Han refilled the basin with water, cleaned the bacon for the last time, fished it out and put it on the board, picked up the knife and looked back at her, and continued: "I'm all for you, besides, I don't need money for this meat and bamboo shoots anyway!" If you don't eat it, can you just watch it? ”
Yun Niang smiled helplessly, took the initiative to clean up the bamboo shoots, and said: "Aunt Liu is right, but whatever you want to do, you can always find a bunch of crooked reasons!" ”
This is not fallacy, this is the truth! If you don't eat, you don't eat in vain! What wastes sleep and forgets to eat, what is so busy that you forget to eat, can it be me? I'm the one who steals snacks from the store when I'm hungry......"
"You steal snacks from the store? Also asked the king shopkeeper to share the reward money? Yun Niang raised her voice in disbelief.
"Sister Yue, you're not right, stealing is the most shameful!"
"Go, you little old-fashioned, hurry up and go! Don't you know that the gentleman is far away from cooking? Jiang Han nudged Xiao An and drove him out of the kitchen, muttering casually: "It's just a few dim sum, I can buy a bunch of the reward money I earn every day!" ”
"That's two different things!" Yun Niang disagreed.
"That's the same thing, think about it, I'm hungry and have no energy, how can I get good guests? How can a guest be extravagant if they are unhappy? A few dim sum for a bunch of copper plates, what's not worth it? ”
"Crooked!"
"You're too stupid to understand the truth!" As she spoke, she cut all the meat, turned her head and asked Yun Niang, "Is it fried meat with dried bamboo shoots, or stewed meat with dried bamboo shoots?" In fact, the bamboo shoots and bacon buns are also good, and you can also add some sauerkraut to it, these meats should be able to wrap twenty, but it's a pity that we have bottomed out with thick noodles......"
"Let's stew, you can still drink soup after eating!" Yun Niang finished cleaning the bamboo shoots three times, stood up and replied.
"Bun ......," Jiang Han muttered dumbfounded.
"What's wrong with you?"
Jiang Han didn't answer her, but put his hand on the chopping board.
"What's wrong with the bun?"
Jiang Han came back to his senses, looked at her and smiled mysteriously: "The buns are good!" ”
“……”
Yun Niang put the bamboo shoots on the desk and looked at her puzzled.
Jiang Han bumped her arm, looked at her with sparkling eyes, and said, "I just thought of a good idea to make extra money, do you want to hear it?" ”
“……”
Yun Niang looked at her and didn't speak, anyway, when this sister showed this kind of expression, she didn't need others to answer at all.
Sure enough, she only blinked twice, and Jiang Han said happily: "We can make steamed buns in the morning and send them directly to the dock to sell!" ”
“……”
"I saw Uncle Niu go to Yinma Street to buy steamed buns before, and yesterday I heard that the buns on Yinma Street are very parallel - you see, if we make delicious buns and send them to the dock, many people will buy them! What do you think? ”
"I don't think so!" Yun Niang splashed a scoop of cold water, "Have you ever thought about it, why so far, no one has gone to the dock to sell steamed buns?" Is there a ban on this? ”
It's a pity that the cold water is not ice water, how can it be splashed to wake up Jiang Han, who is hot-headed, only to hear her say indifferently: "What does it matter if the inspection department has a ban or not?" I have a back door! ”
"You have a back door? After what happened last time, did you have a good relationship with the people in the inspection department? ”
"Cut, who has a good relationship with them! I mean, I can sell the buns to people like Uncle Niu who are looking for work at the docks, as well as their friends, and pass them on one by one, I just need to ask Uncle Niu to help me count how many people want buns the next day, come back in the evening to make them, and send them directly the next day! I'm giving it away, not selling, as for the money, just trade it secretly! ”
"How did you know that Uncle Niu and his friends would be willing to buy your buns......
Obviously, Jiang Han couldn't hear her words, only heard her boast: "This idea is really amazing!" I'm so talented! ”
Yun Niang held her forehead, she felt that if she blew on this sister now, she would definitely be able to float into the sky.
"Hurry up, you come and make bamboo shoots and stewed bacon, I'll go and tell my father!"
Before she could finish speaking, she threw down her kitchen knife, rushed out of the kitchen like the wind, and went to the main room to call her father.
