10 Make money, start with beans
The vegetable slices were cut and the lid of the pot was removed, the fragrant pot rice had been cooked and raked, Lin Lan shoveled the pot rice into the clay pot, washed the pot and began to stir-fry.
She took out the lard jar, and just as she was about to scoop the oil, Xiaodouzi ran to the stove and reminded her: "Mom, remember to put less oil in the stir-fry, that oil will be eaten for a long time." ”
Lin Lan looked at him seriously, a little sad, how could there be such a well-behaved baby! It's so sensible that it hurts.
"Xiaodouzi is right, Mom remembers, put less in the future."
Xiaodouzi nodded: "Mom, it's dark, I'll turn on the light." ”
He walked to the door, grabbed the light cable, and with a "click", pulled the switch open, and the light bulb emitted a dim glow.
At this time, they are all tungsten lamps, and the countrymen are reluctant to use large bulbs of tens of watts, which should be about ten watts, but they are much brighter than oil lamps.
Lin Lan added a straw handle to the stove, scooped up the lard and poured a little vegetable oil into the pot, poured the vegetables into it and stir-fried a few times, added a little water and simmered for a while, the green and white vegetables were cooked, sprinkled with some green onions on it, stir-fried a few times, shoveled into the plate and brought to the table.
Bring clay pots, bowls, chopsticks, and leftover salt vegetables from lunch to the table.
Xiaodouzi sat on the bamboo stool and looked at the vegetables on the plate: "Wow! Mom's stir-fried dishes today look so good. ”
Lin Lan smiled and handed him the rice bowl and spoon: "Try it and see if it's delicious!" ”
The little bean scooped a slice into his mouth and chewed it a few times: "It's delicious!" Mom, you eat too! ”
Lin Lan looked at him with a smile: "You eat too, and after eating, your mother will find clothes to bathe you." ”
"Hmm!" Little Beans puffed out her cheeks and nodded.
Lin Lan beat the soaphorn with the back of a knife and soaked it in hot water before sitting down at the table. The mother and son ate a pot of soup and rice cleanly.
Xiaodouzi touched her little belly: "Mom, look, my little belly is bulging." ”
Lin Lan smiled and nodded: "Hmm!" Eat tall and tall. ”
Xiaodouzi looked at Lin Lan and squinted with a smile: "Mom is really good today, make delicious dishes for Xiaodouzi." ”
Lin Lan rubbed his head and said softly, "Mom will do it for you later." "The original owner used to cook well when he was happy, and when he was unhappy, he would eat fried rice and kimchi.
Xiaodouzi looked at her with sparkling eyes: "Hmm! Mom, I'll help you put away the dishes! ”
After washing the pots and dishes, Lin Lan began to look for clothes to bathe Xiaodouzi.
I lifted the lid of the cabinet and put my head on the lid, and saw that there were clothes and pants in it, and a white cloth, as if it was left over from the funeral. Two beds of cotton wool and two beds of homespun cloth quilt covering.
I found a homespun shirt and pants, a spring and autumn shirt and small trousers, looked back at the dirty bed, removed the coarse cotton thread sewn on the quilt, and changed the bedding on the bed in three or two times.
Lay out the dark blue homespun blanket, then spread the earthy white quilt on top, spread cotton wool, and spread a small quilt. I found the thick needle that was inserted in the calendar to sew the quilt, and just wanted to sew the quilt surface, I turned my head and saw Xiaodouzi sitting on the chair little by little, and began to doze off.
A handful of dirty blankets and quilts that have been changed out are carried to the washboard outside and put them away.
Scoop hot water into the basin, wash his hair with soaphorn liquid, then scoop the hot water into the large wooden basin, peel off the beans in three or two times, and carry him into the basin.
The child sat in the tub and laughed happily. Lin Lan touched the skinny child and gently rubbed off the dirt on his knees, the back of his neck, and the armpits behind his ears.
"Giggle......" Little Beans laughed.
Lin Lan smiled: "Don't twist around, if you have a cold, you have to take bitter medicine." ”
Xiaodouzi puffed out her mouth and smiled: "Mom, you touched my itchy flesh." ”
Lin Lan looked at the white, tender and cheerful child, and kissed him hard: "Okay!" ”
Picked up an old coat and wrapped him up, carried him to a chair, and put on his clothes and pants in a few clicks.
After putting it on, Xiaodouzi kissed Lin Lan on the face: "Mom, it's so comfortable to take a bath, why didn't you wash me before." ”
Lin Lan also kissed him: "It was cold before, and my mother was afraid that you would catch a cold." ”
"Oh!"
Xiaodouzi sat on the chair, her two little feet swayed comfortably, and she looked at Lin Lan who was busy pouring water with a smile while shaking, and felt that her mother was different from the morning, her mother loved to laugh, she liked him more than yesterday, and cooked delicious dishes for him to eat.
Lin Lan poured out the dirty water, looked at the dirty clothes soaked in the pool, and sighed and supported her forehead: "Alas! It's dark, so I can only get up early tomorrow and wash it. ”
She turned around and went back to the house to see Xiaodouzi falling asleep leaning on a chair: "Xiaodouzi, mom carries you to the bed to sleep." ”
Xiaodouzi put his arms around her neck: "I'm afraid, I want my mother to sleep together." ”
Lin Lan kissed him: "Okay, you lie down first, and your mother will come after washing." ”
Little Bean squinted her eyes and nodded.
Lin Lan carried him into the house, put him on the bed and covered him with a quilt.
Xiaodouzi closed her eyes and said uneasily, "Mom, hurry up!" ”
Lin Lan kissed it: "Mom will be here soon." ”
I found a white-washed spring and autumn shirt and vest in the cupboard, as well as a pair of chintz underwear, and went back to the stove room to put on a chair.
I went out and checked the courtyard gate, and put the door bar under the door.
Three or two steps back to the house, three or two scrubbed clean, poured out the dirty water, closed the door and went back to the room, and saw Xiaodouzi clutching the quilt and already asleep.
Lin Lan found the long needle to sew the quilt and threaded it, folded the skirt of the quilt, put on the thimble and slowly sewed it. She learned to sew quilt surfaces when she was still a teenager, and she used quilt covers for decades later, and now that I think about it, it feels like a lifetime.
It took her nearly half an hour to sew the quilt up, and Lin Lan took off her dusty homespun coat and lay down beside Xiaodouzi.
began to calculate the foreign debts owed, owing the old lady fifteen yuan, the three sisters more than 100 yuan, the brigade headquarters and 20 yuan, and the parents also had them, adding up to nearly 300 yuan of foreign debts.
The original itself was penniless, Liu Jinbao lost ten yuan, and after paying off the debt, there were still three yuan left.
Lin Lan sighed: "The original owner, the original owner!" You really don't have to worry about a lot of accounts, and you don't have lice to itch! She thought of these debts, as well as Xiaodouzi's schooling, which cost money, and she had to find a way to make money.
Lin Lan thinks that she is still doing her old job, making snacks, and the capital is less and the funds are returned quickly, what to do? What is there in this house that can be used locally and does not require capital?
She thought about the ingredients that could be used at home, and suddenly thought of the beans in the basket and the canola oil: "Fry some orchid beans and try it." ”
There are more than two catties after a pound of dried beans swells, and the fried orchid beans are crispy and crispy, and it is best to have a little wine and grind your teeth, where to sell it?
A flash of inspiration flashed in her mind, and she suddenly thought of the place where the original owner sold cloth tickets and oil tickets; Eucalyptus forest behind the vehicle factory and silk factory.
There are vendors who sell cloth tickets, meat tickets, and all kinds of bills, as well as meat, white flour, and some snacks. What you can't buy anywhere else, it's all there.
The staff dormitories of the two factories are not far from the Lexing brigade, and it will take more than half an hour at the earliest.
