Qian Shi was startled, and didn't speak for a long time.
Man Bao threw himself into her arms, raised his head, and looked at her with sparkling eyes, "I want Brother Fifth to buy meat, and when the time comes, I will chop it up and make soup for Brother Third, which is perfect to eat with steamed buns. "
The worried Qian couldn't help being happy, touched her little head and said: "If you really do this, why don't you just take out the money and give it to your third brother, who eats meat every day and has to spend more money?" A laborer went to boil it, not to mention the cost, Lao Ding, who served alone, would not accept it, and when the time comes to isolate your third brother, the gain outweighs the loss."
But in the end it was his own son, how could Qian not feel sorry for him
Anyway, my daughter has to go there to write an article, Qian thought for a while and said: "It's cold now, even if the boiling water is taken there, it will be cold. Let your sister-in-law bake two big cakes for you tomorrow, and bring the jar with you." Take it, don't think about buying meat, just boil some water for them, and don't just give it to your third brother, but give it to the same village, Lao Ding from the same town."
After thinking about it, there was not much water in a jar, so Qian said: "Take a wooden bucket at home, pour the water into it after it is boiled, cover the lid tightly with a cloth, pour a jar after it is boiled, and finally Even if the boiled water is not hot, it will not be cold, just try to warm the stomach."
Man Bao was stunned for a while, and asked, "Mother, did you give the third brother any money?"
Qian looked at her suspiciously, not knowing how the topic got here, she nodded and said: "Poor Jia Fulu, I gave him a hundred Wen, thinking that if he was hungry or sick , can also spend money to buy some food or buy a safe, what's the matter?"
Man Bao said with sparkling eyes: "Since Mother brought money to Third Brother, other people must have brought money to Lao Ding, Mother, let's go earn their money."
Qian just leaned on the chair and asked, "How do you plan to earn their money?"
Man Bao said: "I'll sell their broth for a penny a bowl!"
Qian felt that this child was a prodigal not only to her own family, but also to people outside. She asked, "Do you know how much a catty of meat costs? How much meat does it take to cook so many people's broth? Moreover, to cook broth It’s different from boiling water, crockpots definitely won’t work, you have to move the kettle at home, and for such a big kettle, you have to borrow a scooter again, it’s such a big deal to go back and forth, it’s fine if you don’t make money, and Potentially losing money."
Man Bao scratched his head and asked Keke uncertainly, "Will you lose money?"
After calculating the cost, the system asked, "How much meat does the host think is suitable for a pot of soup?"
Man Bao, how does Man Bao know
She went into the kitchen to look at her pot. Oh, Keke is called a pot, but in fact it is not called a pot, it is called a cauldron, and it is quite big. It is used to boil water and cook soup at home.
Because they have a large family, they prepared two more.
As for the pot that Keke mentioned, Man Bao has only seen it in Keke's images, at least she has never seen a pot since she grew up, especially the iron pot that Keke mentioned.
Man Bao squatted in front of the cauldron at her house, helpless, she didn't understand such things as cooking soup and rice, so she went to ask Xiaoqian, "Sister-in-law, if I cook a pot of broth, how much meat do I need?"
Xiaoqian asked: "Sister-in-law, have you made a fortune?"
Man Bao rubbed his stomach and smiled awkwardly.
Xiaoqian said: "It depends on how you want to eat it. In a pot of water, you can put a piece of meat in it and it will be broth. Put a catty of meat in it and it will be broth. You can also put two catties and three catties in it. Soup?" , What you drink is the same taste and oily water, with enough salt, such a pot of water, it’s almost enough to have half a catty.”
Yes, it seems to have to add salt.
Man Bao looked at the salt shaker in their house and became sad.
Keke stopped talking, Man Bao drooped his head and went back to the house thinking, what kind of soup can reduce salt and meat, and can also drive away the cold
Keke said without thinking: "Ginger soup."
Man Bao asked, "What is ginger?"
Keke looked for it, found Jiang's entry and gave it to her, and showed her the picture by the way.
Man Bao recognized it immediately, "I've seen this before, and our family bought it during the Chinese New Year."
Ke Ke said: "Ginger has the effect of warding off the cold and warming up the body. If the host is reluctant to buy meat, you can also buy ginger. It should not be expensive."
Man Bao was happy, took out all her money and counted it, and decided to go to the market early the next morning to buy ginger, and then go to the third brother.
Of course, when Man Bao had an idea, she would not keep it in her heart. She told Brother Wu first, because she would not do such things as making soup, but Brother Wu would.
Zhou Wulang cheered up, and he trusted his sister's idea, "Man Bao, you are so powerful, you can figure out a way to make money after just one trip, after that, don't you have an idea every day when you go out every day? "
Man Bao felt that what he said was reasonable, and he was happy, "I can't help it, I'm just so smart."
Friday Lang and Saturday Lang looked at her silly.
Zhou Zhoulang had already had a full meal and lay on the bed. He was still building a house for the Bai family. He was extremely tired every day. He pulled the quilt over him, yawned and said, "Don't be silly, ginger is better than meat." Expensive, three little fools."
Man Bao was not happy, and said: "You are the fool, my family, our village, our township, including our county, I am the smartest."
That's what Koko said!
And why ginger is so expensive, Keke has said, this thing is very easy to grow, as long as the land is fertile enough, a lot can grow from one piece, it is very easy to grow.
Zhou Zhoulang's eyes were almost closed, and he murmured: "It's expensive, but it's medicine..."
Man Bao couldn't hear clearly, and was still discussing tomorrow's itinerary with Zhou Wulang.
Their luck is good, tomorrow is the big market, they can catch an early market, then there will be everything sold on the street, and ginger should not be difficult to find.
For the sake of the third brother, Man Bao, Wu Lang and Saturday Lang got up before dawn for the sake of the third brother and making money. Today, Tuesday Lang went to the market as usual, and he didn't mind at all bringing the third brother's troubled younger siblings.
Anyway, it’s winter now, and there’s nothing to do at home. A group of children are also playing with cats and dogs at home, so it’s better to go out for a walk to kill energy.
The family has collected enough firewood for the winter, and now the three sisters-in-law of Qian's family are mending their shoes and socks at home every day, and they don't even have work in the vegetable garden, so naturally they don't want the children to run outside.
After Zhou Zhoulang took all his younger siblings away, Zhou Zhoulang raised his head and said to his parents: "Man Bao said that he wanted to buy ginger soup instead of broth, mother, why didn't you persuade her?"
"What's the use of persuasion? When she goes to Daji, asks about the price, and hits the south wall, she will naturally turn around."
Zhou Zhoulang let out an "oh", sat and waited for the time to come.
As a result, Mrs. Qian told him, "Go, fill up the water tank."
Zhou Dalang, who was about to carry water, stopped, and Qian said, "Yesterday it was your elder brother who carried the water. Today it's your turn. From now on, you will follow your three elder brothers in turn."
Thursday Lang wanted to cry.
He stood up slowly, picked up the barrel and went out.
