Chapter Seventy-Nine: I Think It Can Be Done
Both of them are scene people, and there is Tanabata, which is still able to speak, and it became warm after a few words.
"So Miss Shen is planning to come over to do business on the next market day?" Chen Jincheng listened carefully to Qixi's words, and then confirmed, "In this case, what is the need to prepare in advance?" Miss Shen just said, I still know a little about this, and I will help clean up when it opens. ”
"Uncle Chen just calls me Qixi Festival, or call me Xi girl, Uncle Xu from 'Cyclamen' also calls me that. As soon as Qixi heard that she was busy speaking, she was a country girl, people looked at the faces of the Zhao family brothers and sisters and treated each other politely, she naturally wouldn't take it big, mentioning Xu Xiaoyu was to make Chen Jincheng feel that it was not rude to call it like this, and then politely refused, "We just came to set up a stall on the day of the big set, everything is ready, and when the time comes, my father, mother, uncle and uncle will come, and the family is busy, but we must not trouble Uncle anymore." ”
"Okay, okay, then I'll call you a night girl. Chen Jincheng naturally understood, and said with a smile at the moment, "Don't be polite to your uncle, there are many people in your family, I can't reach out, so I won't make a mess, and when the time comes, come over and give you a show, you can't refuse, right?"
It's just a small dumpling stall, and there's really no need for Chen Jincheng to be busy with him, but he has to say this, he won't be unfavorable when he looks back at the young master, and when he looks at this little girl, he is very valued by the young master.
In fact, Steward Chen was still a little puzzled when he listened to the young master's instructions yesterday, this matter was a little strange, if it was some rural relatives of the Zhao family, he really didn't know the truth. But the Shen family really hasn't heard of it, but it's okay. The things that the master explained, he didn't know too much. But it must be done well.
"Okay, when Uncle Chen comes, I'll invite you to eat dumplings. Qixi smiled and nodded, and no longer shirked, Manager Chen had something he had to do, she felt that she didn't want to trouble people, but it was impossible to say that it would make people embarrassed.
Both of them felt happy in their hearts, and agreed to speak on the day of the big gathering, because Steward Chen had to wait for her to wait here for an hour. also hurried to busy themselves, and the uncle and nephew walked back with joy.
As soon as he got home, Li Taihe was happier than before he left, and when he entered the door, he said to his sister-in-law: "Su Xin, you believe in the second brother, set up a stall in that place, you just wait to make money, it must be better than anyone's business on the big set." ”
The tables and chairs in the courtyard have been wiped down at this time, and Li is taking out all those old dishes and chopsticks. If there is a gap that is afraid of hurting your hands, pick it out, put the rest together, turn around and boil the water to scald, and you can use it when you put it away.
has opened a shop next to Daji for so many years. Of course, Li Taihe's vision can be believed, if he says that he can make money, then it will be no different, and he is very happy to hear the second brother say this. But he immediately hesitated: "If that place is really a good place, it would be great." We're ready for everything, so I don't know what happens to our dumplings. If people don't like to eat it......"
"I know that I won't be relieved if I don't let my mother eat it. Qixi laughed when she heard it, she knew the thoughts of Dao Niang, and spent so much effort, and if she was in the last place, if her dumplings were not delicious and the business was not good, she would definitely feel that it was dragging down her family, so she smiled and said, "Otherwise, it just so happens that my grandma and grandfather are here today, I will go home to catch fish, let's make dumplings at my second uncle's house at noon today, okay?"
I don't mind the worry about her mother at all, because the preparation before this has already shown that my father and mother believe in her enough, and this little worry now is also human nature.
Besides, since she proposed to do this business, she has to be responsible for making everyone believe it, otherwise why would so many people follow her?
"What's not to do?" Qin happened to come back from the front, and when he heard this, he smiled and said, "Then we have a good fortune today, why do you want you to go? Let your second uncle go to fish, this is not far away, call all the Yunrong people in the family, let's have a good meal at noon." ”
This proposal was approved by the whole family, and after discussion, the adults stayed to do the work, so Li Tai and one led a few little girls back to catch fish, and by the way, Shen Chenghou called a few people over to eat together.
A few people went home first to get fish things, and just saw Shen Chenghou and Shen Chengan unloading soil in the yard, Xiaoshi sitting in the yard and comparing the branches to the words that his brother taught him, Yun Rongzheng marinated the cleaned meat with salt, and planned to prepare lunch after finishing it.
"Sister, stop cooking, I'll feed the chickens and ducks later, let's go into the town to eat, and make dumplings today." Qixi handed the net to the second uncle, turned around and said, "Dad, don't do it with your uncle, let's go together later, just go to see the tables and chairs, you have to come back early after eating, and my uncle will come over to deliver the stove in the evening." ”
"I'm not going, I'm afraid I'm going to have to cook at home, when will you come back next morning, I'll come back then." Seeing that the third brother put down the work in his hand, Shen Chengan also put it down, patted the ashes on his body and planned to go home.
"Uncle, today I stuffed fish dumplings, don't you want to taste them? "It's okay if the uncle doesn't go, Qixi is very close to this uncle, and the first time he makes dumplings, of course he has to taste them together.
"What's the matter, do you want to set up a stall?" Shen Chenghou patronized his work all morning, and he hadn't mentioned this matter to his younger brother, Shen Chengan still just knew about it, and immediately asked in surprise, "What kind of fish and meat dumplings, our family has never done this?" Who did you listen to, do you really want to try it?"
At the end, he turned his head and glanced at the second brother of the Li family with some embarrassment, feeling that his mouth was too fast, didn't he doubt the kindness of others in person?
If you change it, no one will definitely think that this is a way to make money for the Li family, but they can't imagine that a little girl will go to Qixi Festival.
"If you can't eat it, you will know the way, so the uncle must follow, you still have to help check it, if the big guys say it's delicious, then we have a greater grasp of making money back?"
was already close to the third brother's family, and if he was left to eat at home, he would definitely not be so polite, but it was the third sister-in-law's second brother's house, and because of his father and fourth brother, he always felt that he couldn't hold his head up in front of the third sister-in-law's mother's family, so Shen Chengan didn't want to go to dinner with him.
As a result, before he could refuse to say anything, Li Taihe couldn't help but say that he took him away with him, saying that what happened to his family coming to have a meal, he hadn't been there for so long, so he should have gone to recognize the door, which made Shen Chengan unable to refuse at all.
Only then did everyone pack up the work in the courtyard, first went to the fish pond to catch a lot of fish, and then returned to Li Taihe's house together.
When Shen Chengan went, he knew that his previous worries were superfluous, the Li family was very close to him, but he would not be polite or anything, they all knew that the five boys of the Shen family were good, and treated him as his own family, the old man was afraid that he would be restrained, so he said that he hadn't eaten yet, and asked him to come over to help.
Shen Chengan was so happy that he was not politely asked to sit there and wait to eat, so he hurriedly went over to give him a hand, and really chatted with the old man.
This Tanabata Festival is also busy, in order to make everyone believe that the father and mother are not used to children tossing blindly, although the second uncle and the second aunt have long believed it before, she still has enough energy to make dumplings for the first time.
And the noodles of her hand is a little bad, and she can't be busy, so she handed it over to her mother and aunt, and the noodles of the good Lu should be put there to wake up for about two quarters of an hour, and they used to say "soft dumplings and hard noodles", which means that the noodles should be hard, and the dumplings should be softer, but it is slightly softer than the noodles that roll the noodles, and they can't be too soft.
Onions, ginger, garlic, cooking wine and so on are all prepared, killing fish and removing meat Tanabata do not need to be others, fish meat is washed and peeled and bones are lost, net fish meat is ground into puree, pig fat meat is chopped into puree, fish minced and fat meat puree must be finely ground in order to be able to eat more water, the filling will be tender, and you must keep adding pepper water to it when stirring.
Fat pork is used to increase the aroma and not greasy taste, some people do not put fat meat when packing, Tanabata thought about it, this is to be sold on the big set in the future, a lot of people who come to eat are the same as their countrymen, the more fragrant the dumplings, the better, and the pepper water she uses space water, and she is not afraid that it will reduce the umami of the fish.
After the filling is adjusted, I don't care about the bag, there are so many people in the family, and a few little girls are good at making dumplings, and they turn their heads to adjust the soup on Tanabata.
Li Taihe's family cooks noodles every day to boil big bone broth, which saves a lot of trouble on Tanabata, while making it while thinking that in the future, he will have to boil soup at home, and it is best to boil some thick soup and bring it over, and then just burn the fire and mix it with water.
The dumplings were wrapped, the soup here was also boiled on Tanabata, and the dumplings were put off the pot to the table, and the whole process made Tang's eyes blink, and he said when this little granddaughter was so powerful.
The family had already been pressed by Qixi to sit at the table, saying that they just waited for her to serve it bowl by bowl.
It's a pity that there are no small shrimps, and there is no fresh cabbage or anything in this winter, otherwise the taste is better, and Qixi will cut some soaked dried coriander and put it in a small plate, and I love to eat coriander and put it in a little bit.
As a result, Li Yuan ate three bowls of dumplings alone, and he usually didn't eat less steamed dumplings or dumplings, but it was like eating wontons and stews, and this was the first time.
"It's delicious, this taste is very good, I really didn't expect the fish and meat dumplings to be so fragrant, how did you figure it out?" Li Yuan put down the dishes and chopsticks when he was full, looked at his daughter and son-in-law and said, "I think it can work, I have also eaten a lot of wonton stewed dumplings from shop stalls over the years, and I really don't think anyone tastes better than this."
