MTL - Wonderful Life After Exchanging Fate-Chapter 13
Here, Jiang Yunzhu and Mrs. Chen cleaned up the stall and returned home.
At Sishi, they went to the town to buy things for the afternoon.
"Today's meat is really good." Chen looked at the piece of pork belly and said with satisfaction, thinking that such a piece should be enough for Deputy General Zhao and the others to eat tomorrow.
Jiang Yunzhu stared at another piece of meat on the butcher stall, thinking about it, "Boss, is this beef?" she asked.
"Yeah, why, do you want it?" The butcher stall owner was surprised at first, and then asked pleasantly.
The Xia Dynasty attached great importance to farming and did not allow people to kill cattle in private, so most of the beef on the market is the meat of some old cattle, not to mention twice as expensive as pork, and it is also difficult to make, so except for restaurants, ordinary people rarely have it. bought.
Jiang Yunzhu wanted to buy a piece, so he asked the price.
The meat stall owner gave a very affordable price.
Jiang Yunzhu immediately decided to buy two catties.
Chen Shi watched from the side, although she didn't know what she was going to do, but now she chose to believe her.
"Then this pork belly?" she asked.
"How about buying two catties?" Jiang Yunzhu said.
"Is two catties enough?" Mrs. Chen was surprised. The three of Deputy General Zhao ate a catty of meat this morning.
"I won't be selling meat pancakes tomorrow." Jiang Yunzhu said, "I sold meat pancakes before because I wanted to attract customers with the aroma of stewed meat so that I could sell soup. But in our place, there are few rich people. It is suitable for selling meat pies. You see, apart from the three people this morning, there are actually only a few people who buy meat pies these days.
Now that we have more customers, we don’t need to make stew. "
"Then the three guests this morning..." Chen was anxious, she didn't want to lose those three guests.
"They ate so many meat pies this morning, will they still want to eat them tomorrow?" Jiang Yunzhu asked.
Mrs. Chen was stunned, yes, no matter how delicious it is, it cannot be eaten every day.
"Then what should I do?" she asked hurriedly.
Jiang Yunzhu shook the beef in his hand, "I'll make it tomorrow."
Seeing that she looked confident, Mrs. Chen was a little relieved, but soon, she remembered, no, since I won't be making meat pies tomorrow, what's the point of buying meat.
"Mother, it's time for our family to eat meat." Jiang Yunzhu held Chen's hand and said earnestly.
These days, they stewed meat and boiled bones every day, but no one in the family ate a bite. Although Jiang Wu and the others were sensible and did not make trouble, their round eyes looked at Jiang Yunzhu eagerly every day. Jiang Yunzhu really couldn't hold on up.
Moreover, she also wants to eat meat!
Why does Chen not want her family to eat meat? Every time she sees the expectant eyes of the children, her heart feels like being soaked in acid water. But the meat was going to be sold, so she could only harden her heart and pretend not to see it.
Today, Jiang Yunzhu made a mistake, and she said cruelly, "Okay, let's eat stew." Soon she convinced herself and added, "I made a lot of money today, so it should be enough for food."
Jiang Yunzhu smiled, and she knew that Mrs. Chen still loved them.
At this time, Mrs. Chen said again, "Why don't we invite the village chief, Father Xu, and Aunt Feng over here. Our family can live here safely, and they helped a lot."
In order to register the household registration for their family, the village head built a package of tea leaves himself; Mrs. Feng was willing to rent the house to them at such a low price. Last time she went to bring her soup, she gave her several big steamed buns; And Father Xu, he and Xu Qingshan helped them all the way, and when they arrived at Changshi Village, he helped them speak well to the village chief so that they could stay smoothly.
One by one, one by one, Mrs. Chen remembered it all in her heart.
"We moved to a new house, so we should have invited everyone to have a meal and have fun," she said.
Jiang Yunzhu had no objection.
"Okay, then let's buy more vegetables." Mrs. Chen didn't care about money this time.
Returning with a full load, in the afternoon, in addition to preparing the food to be sold the next day, the family also began to prepare dinner.
Their family didn't know many people here, and it was a rented house, so Mrs. Chen didn't want to make a big deal, but just took this opportunity to have fun.
Taking time out, she went to the village chief's house and Mrs. Feng's house to invite people.
Gu Yongde had nothing to say to Mr. Xu, only that he would be there at night.
Mrs. Feng's house, Mrs. Chen has repeatedly emphasized, "Everyone comes tonight, if you don't come, I will come to invite people."
Mrs. Feng has two sons, both of whom are married and have children. There are six people in their family.
Old lady Feng agreed repeatedly.
After Mrs. Chen left, she squinted at her two daughter-in-laws, "How is it?" At that time, she saw that Mrs. Chen and the others were pitiful, and rented the house to them at a low price. I feel at a loss.
What now?
She knew that the Jiang family looked kind and down-to-earth. When everyone is in trouble, if you can help, you still need to help.
The two daughters-in-law chatted.
"Then do we really want the whole family to go?" asked the second daughter-in-law. There are too many people, and they are all embarrassed.
"Go, I see that they are sincerely inviting our family. Bring two of the chickens from the house." Old Mrs. Feng said.
Two chickens are not cheap anymore, the two daughters-in-law thought to themselves. But when they arrived at Jiang's house and saw the meals prepared by Mrs. Chen and Jiang Yunzhu, they only felt that they were getting too little chicken.
Only then did they truly believe in Mrs. Feng's vision that the Jiang family was a good one, and they underestimated them.
This family is worth paying for!
Tonight, Mrs. Chen and Jiang Yunzhu directly cooked two tables of noodles.
The materials Mrs. Chen bought included chicken and fish. After Jiang Yunzhu's skillful cooking, the two tables of food, even Gu Yongde, who is used to eating, were speechless.
How did the chicken smell so good? And that bowl of emerald green soup, the radish in it is even carved?
The two tables of meals made by Jiang Yunzhu are actually just average. In my dream, I was in the Marquis of Anping, so I never tire of fine food, and never tire of fine food.
"Whose craftsmanship is this?" Gu Yongde asked in amazement.
"Yunzhu made it, and I will help." Chen said with a smile.
"My sister actually has this kind of skill? Where did she learn it?" Mrs. Feng's second daughter-in-law asked.
"We ordinary people, if we don't have any skills, we can just do it."
Mrs. Chen's words are true. Ordinary people who would go out of their way to learn how to cook can do it every day.
Of course, Jiang Yunzhu's cooking level has improved a bit quickly, which is the result of her deliberate suppression.
"Hey, it's the same as cooking. It's delicious if someone cooks it. A bowl of mixed wild vegetables can also give you a taste, but someone else can't. It's a waste of good things." Gu Yongde said.
"What do you mean, I wasted something?" His daughter-in-law immediately snorted jokingly.
"I did not mean that."
Everyone laughed and passed, but everyone felt that the girl from the Jiang family was really nice, she was good-looking, and her craftsmanship was so good.
"Hurry up and eat, or it won't taste good when it gets cold." Jiang Cheng said.
"Yes, yes, eat quickly." Mrs. Chen followed suit with a warm greeting.
Everyone sat down one after another. Over there, Gu Yongde, Mr. Chen, Mr. Xu, Jiang Cheng and Mrs. Feng's three sons exchanged glasses and drank to their heart's content. Here, Mrs. Feng and the others also ate full of praise.
Everyone ate, drank and chatted, and the relationship was pulled together a lot.
Life seems to be like this, lively and lively.
After dinner, Mrs. Feng's two daughters-in-law offered to stay and help clean up. As a big family, they felt sorry for eating such delicious food.
Besides, after chatting with Mrs. Chen just now, they all felt that she was a good person and were willing to help her.
"You are guests, how can this be done!" Mrs. Chen said hastily.
"Let them help, otherwise we won't feel at ease. You have to set up a stall tomorrow, so don't delay your business." Mrs. Feng made a final decision.
Human hearts are fleshy, if you treat me well, I will naturally treat you well.
Old Mrs. Feng's two daughters-in-law were quick-witted, and within a short while, everything had been cleaned up.
"If there is anything to do in the future, just say hello." Mrs. Feng said before leaving.
Her two sons and daughter-in-law also nodded.
Chen agreed with a smile.
Everyone dispersed.
In the evening, Mrs. Chen was calculating how much money she spent today. After the calculation, she was even more eager to make money. If it wasn't for the fear of tiring Jiang Yunzhu, she would have wished to get up and cook immediately.
By the way, she also remembered a very important thing. Jiang Yunzhu hasn't told her what she plans to do tomorrow to keep Vice General Zhao, the God of Wealth!
Jiang Yunzhu naturally knew it well.
