As she said that, she didn't need the girl to serve her. She picked up the chopsticks, picked up the crispy radish, and put it in the bowl... Before she knew it, a bowl of thick porridge fell into her belly. I also tasted a few mouthfuls of other dishes on the table. However, the sweet, crunchy and delicious crunchy radish is used the most.
Mrs. Zhou has a soft spot for wine beans. The old man likes to drink a few glasses of wine every day. The faint aroma of wine in the bean and the slight spiciness stimulate his taste buds and make him unable to stop.
Others in the family are also full of praise for these two side dishes. Zhou Zixu showed a smug expression, and suddenly remembered what the little girl in shabby clothes said, but was more dazzling than the rich daughter, and said to Mrs. Zhou: "Grandfather, is this side dish delicious?"
Old Mrs. Zhou picked up a small steamed bun, put a chopstick of wine beans on it, Ah Wu took a bite, squinted his eyes and said: "Shang Ke..."
"Grandfather, if you give a few small plates of such exquisite side dishes as a gift when Zhenxiang serves cold dishes, do you think the guests will like it?" In the pickle shop, the little girl casually said this sentence, making people born among merchants At home, he felt something in his heart.
Old Mrs. Zhou's squinted eyes suddenly widened. He put down the chopsticks in his hand, stroked the beard on his chin, nodded and said in relief: "Xu'er, grandfather really saw you right. You really followed the second child... This method is feasible." , I will leave it to you to do it!"
Zhou Zifang's hands under the table were tightly clenched, his nails were embedded in the flesh but he didn't feel any pain at all, and he tried his best to maintain a faint smile on his face: "Grandfather, Brother Xu, if you don't sing, you're already a blockbuster! Our Zhou family The same blood flows in your veins."
In his heart, however, he secretly hated that no matter how hard he worked, no matter how many beautiful businesses he did, in his grandfather's heart, he was no match for the status of his son and grandson.
Although his grandfather praised him for his business acumen and talent for doing business, he only gave him some small businesses. Zhou Zixu was just a kid who didn't understand anything, and he made a well-regulated suggestion, but his grandfather planned to teach him how to cook the Zhou family's business in a disguised form. How can you convince him
In the Zhou family, the richest man in ancient Tang Dynasty, some people are happy and some are worried. Xiaocao, however, continues to cook and sell stewed vegetables, and the family is very busy and full of energy.
Since Mrs. Zhang made a fuss and took away the stewed vegetables recipe, he went to the market the next day and bought a big pig's head. He forced someone to make a pair of pig intestines and belly, and he went home and started to pack it up. .
The pig intestines and belly were dirty and smelly, so Mrs. Zhang naturally didn't want to take care of them herself. She also used the reason that her daughter couldn't be rough with the dowry when she was going to be married, so this task naturally fell on Mrs. Li.
Mrs. Li is delicious, lazy and has a broken mouth. How can he be a person who does things? It would be fine if the money from the sale fell into her pocket, but all the income of the family is in the hands of her mother-in-law, so she has no motivation.
Pinching his nose, he washed the dirt in the large intestine with water, and rinsed it casually several times with clean water. The hair on the pig's head was not cleaned, and the ear hair and other debris were not cleaned, so they were directly boiled in the pot.
During the marinating process, Mrs. Zhang felt sorry for the expense of putting in spices, so she halved everything, and even saved the expensive ones. In this way, the taste has been discounted a bit.
The stewed pork head and large intestine smell disgusting, let alone eat it! There was a plate of marinated pork head meat on the dining table, and Lao Yu patted the table without even tasting it, and shouted: "Is this for human food? Hurry up and throw it as far as you can! The taste is so delicious that it makes people eat it." Do people eat?"
The third child, Yu Bo, who finally returned home, retched a few times due to the smell of braised pig's head. He didn't even eat the eggs that were added to his meal every day. He threw his chopsticks and went back to the house, slamming the door loudly. Sister-in-law Yu Caidie grabbed a dried radish and pancakes and sat down in the yard to eat.
Only Heizi seemed to have a problem with his sense of smell and taste. He added a piece of fat pork head and ate it deliciously. If Xiaocao was there, he would definitely laugh secretly: This silly boy, as long as it is meat, even if it smells worse than manure, he can eat it!
It cost ten yuan to buy a pig's head, plus various seasonings, twenty or thirty yuan went out. If these were thrown away, wouldn't all the money spent be in vain
Mrs. Zhang didn't care about these things. In the afternoon, she put the marinated pig's head and large intestines into a basket, and took Mrs. Li as a companion, and went to the pier.
"One penny meat dishes! Authentic Yujia stewed vegetables! Delicious and cheap...Big brother, buy a copy and try it!" Under Zhang's repeated gestures, Li squeezed out a smile all over his face and yelled loudly. But it is all unwilling.
Coincidentally, Mr. Sun's subordinates didn't have much work today, and the dock workers came early to wait for Xiaocao's stewed vegetables for a penny. Hearing Li Shi's yell, they all surrounded her.
Old Hao took out two coins as usual, handed it over, and said casually: "Give me two bad fish... why didn't Xiaocao come today?"
Bad fish? The smile on Li's face froze. Mrs. Zhang quickly collected the money, and said, "You say my granddaughter! She has something to do today...Big brother, I didn't mess up the fish today. There are pork heads and large intestines. Do you want it?"
"Yes, yes! I need two servings of pork head meat, and I need more." Pork head meat is Lao Hao's favorite, and he usually sells bad fish in the afternoon. Today, he was very surprised to be able to buy pork head meat .
After receiving the oiled paper bag handed over by Mrs. Zhang, Lao Hao weighed it in his hand a few times, muttering in his heart: The portion of stewed vegetables seems to be less than usual today. But after thinking about it, such a delicious meat dish is only a penny, less is less...
Lao Hao couldn't wait to open the oiled paper package, but instead of the usual strong fragrance, an indescribable strange smell came to his nostrils. He frowned, picked up a piece with his hand, and found that the pig hair on it was standing upright like a mighty one.
Xiaocao's penny meat dishes are not only fragrant and delicious, but the key is to clean them up. At this moment, even a fool realized that there was something wrong with the stewed vegetables.
Old Hao took the pig's head, squeezed into the crowd again, held the hair on it, shook it in front of Mrs. Zhang, and said, "Auntie, are you sure this is the pig's head marinated by Xiaocao himself?"
"Damn... Of course! These few hairs may not be cleaned carefully, I didn't see...Big Brother, I'll help you change one..." Mrs. Zhang apologized with a stiff face.
Seeing her faltering, Lao Hao knew that there must be something wrong, so he put the piece of meat back into the paper bag and stuffed it back into Mrs. Zhang's hand, saying: "You can smell it yourself! Xiaocao's penny As soon as the oiled paper bag was opened, the meat and vegetables smelled so fragrant. As for yours, it almost made me sick. This is definitely not Xiaocao's handicraft!... I don't want this dish anymore, refund the money, refund the money!"
Mrs. Zhang is just a Pixiu, a master who can only get in and out. If she wants to refund the money, there is no way! Her face turned cold, she pushed the paper bag back, and screamed: "You have eaten all of this, and you still want to refund the money! You can't be bullied when I'm an old woman!"
At this time, she had already sold more than a dozen copies, and the other people who gathered around saw that something was wrong, so they put away the copper coins in their hands and stood aside to watch.
Those who just bought it and haven't opened the paper bag hurriedly asked: "Auntie, I just got this and the paper bag hasn't been opened yet, can I return it?"
Mrs. Zhang saw that her business, which was originally booming, was so troubled that she had no money to make, and she still wanted the copper coins she returned, so of course she quit. She squeezed her thigh and screamed: "Wow! You bully us, the old and the weak, women and children, and you don't want to pay for things! Damn it, aren't you afraid of retribution?"
Mrs. Li also opened her throat and shouted: "We sell food for food. Who knows if you have done something wrong when you bought it? How can we sell it to others after returning it? The goods will not be returned or exchanged!!"
Old Hao pointed at the pig's head meat in his hand angrily, and said, "The vegetables you sell are not edible at all! It's only natural to refund the money!"
"It's only natural! Why can't you eat it? What's the point of killing you if you take it? Eat it and see, if it is really poisonous to death, we will pay you for the coffin!!" Mrs. Zhang exerted her aggressiveness to the extreme. Anyway, she is an old lady, so she can't be hired or touched. If he dared to move a finger of her, she would be sure of him!
Old Hao glared angrily, clenched his fists tightly, stepped forward and said: "Why are you so unreasonable, old lady? If you don't refund the money, you will curse people to death!"
"Oh! I'm going to kill someone!! Everyone, come and see, a group of people are bullying me, an old woman! Does anyone care..." Mrs. Zhang was stunned by his stare, she took two steps back, He sat down on the ground, patted his thigh and cried.
Lao Hao and a group of co-workers couldn’t laugh or cry—it’s reasonable for her to sell fake products!
"Grandma, what's wrong with you? Who bullied you?" Xiaocao's voice came from behind the crowd. The dock workers made way for her, and she walked towards Mrs. Zhang calmly with a basket on her shoulders.
After being seen by the juniors, Zhang's face is not thick to the extreme. She hurriedly stood up, patted the dirt on her body, and said loudly and confidently: "Xiaocao, you came just in time!! Tell me, don't you want us to rob you of your business, hide your secrets intentionally, and give us the wrong prescription? They say This braised vegetables tastes bad, I want my money back!"
Xiaocao glanced at the familiar faces behind her, and understood in her heart. She walked up to Old Hao, looked at the oil-paper bag in his hand, and said, "Old Hao, let me see the stewed vegetables in your hand!"
Old Hao handed over an opened package, and said, "Xiaocao, smell it, how can people eat it!"
Xiaocao frowned at the pungent smell, looked carefully at the pig's head meat, then turned to Zhang and said, "Grandma, before marinating the pig's head, remove the hair from the pig's head, dig out the ear hair and other impurities. Then, split the pig's head, take out the pig's brain, soak it in clean water to drain the blood stains, and then soak it in hot water for 2 quarters of an hour to remove the smell from the pig's head. Look at your pig's head, the top The hair is still there, so I must have cut corners when washing the pig's head."
