Guan Baiyu really didn't like his little grandma.
People of his grandma's generation lived too hard in the past, and everyone had some problems. For example, his grandma was very protective of food. When he got older, he would hide and eat anything that was delicious.
As for his second grandmother, Guan Jianguo's mother, she was very stingy, and she was reluctant to spend a penny on weekdays.
And his little grandma likes to take advantage of others the most.
However, if he just likes to take advantage of her, Guan Baiyu won't dislike her... Guan Baiyu will be dissatisfied with her, and it has something to do with her "Kaikai" that keeps her mouth open and shut.
Kai Kai's name is Guan Kai, who is two years younger than Guan Baiyu and the same age as Guan Baiyu's younger sister, who is thirteen this year.
They belonged to the main family and lived very close together, so they could play together, but because Guan Kai was born and planned to have children, and their family was such an only child, the little grandmother was very fond of Guan Kai. It hurts to my heart.
Guan Kai was so spoiled and grew up with a bad temper. When he was a child, he would cry as long as he didn't follow him when he played with them. When he cried, he went to his grandma to complain.
Then Guan Kai's grandma led Guan Kai, looking for trouble everywhere and quarreling with other parents.
In the end, no one in their group was willing to play with Guan Kai.
Guan Kai was unhappy again, and went to complain to his grandma that others didn't take him to play. Guan Kai's grandma came to trouble him and asked him to play with Guan Kai. If he didn't follow Guan Kai later, for example, Guan Kai and He won Guan Kai at poker, Guan Kai would be unhappy, and Grandma Guan Kai would tell him.
His grandmother brought him back and raised him, but he was not Guan's family. His grandma actually didn't like him very much, and it was impossible for him to stand up for these things.
This little grandma also likes to talk right and wrong behind her back. She always tells people that she is better than her parents and her family, so no one wants it.
He also framed him for not being good to Guan Kai, beating Guan Kai and the like.
He didn't hit at all.
There are many similar things, Guan Baiyu didn't know where to start, and finally told Shi Zhen about a recent incident: "During the Chinese New Year, the river in front of the door was drained, so I picked up some from the river. Crucian carp, but she said that her grandson found it and took all my crucian carp."
When Guan Baiyu said this, he was a little depressed.
Now that everyone's life is getting better, he will buy some meat and fish to eat more or less during the New Year's Eve, but he can eat meat at his adoptive father's place for the New Year's Eve dinner, and usually has no chance to eat meat and fish.
The small crucian carp caught had more bones and less meat, but that was also meat.
Shi Zhen didn't know about these things. In his previous life, Guan Baiyu rarely spoke about these relatives, and when he did occasionally talk about them, he basically didn't speak ill of them.
Also, when people become adults, they generally don't hate these trivial things.
Putting his hand around Guan Baiyu, Shi Zhen patted him on the back: "Next time I'll buy a big fish for you to eat. As for your little sister-in-law, we'll never give her meat again."
"Yeah." Guan Baiyu replied. In fact, he just wanted to stop Shi Zhen from giving meat, but he was afraid that after he stopped him, his little grandmother would speak ill of Shi Zhen all over the village.
After the pork head was stewed, Shi Zhen kept a little marinade and meat to eat tomorrow morning. The rest was handled as before and placed in the big pot.
The next day, Shi Zhen took a pot of pork head meat, a domino stool, a small stool, a knife, a weight and other small things, and went to town with Shi Xinghuo.
When he arrived in town, Shi Zhen found a place outside the vegetable market, put the stainless steel basin on a higher domino stool, and prepared to sell pork head meat.
He and Shi Xinghuo came early, it was only six o'clock in the morning, but there were already many people coming to the vegetable market to buy vegetables. Shi Zhen was not pretentious and greeted: "Or pig head meat? Cold-cut pig head meat is two yuan per catty!"
Nowadays, there are quite a few restaurants in town that sell food, but they all sell stuffed stuffed buns, steamed buns, sesame fritters, etc. Few sell cooked food. There are only three in total, and all of them are like Shi Zhen who set up stalls outside the vegetable market.
That is, their stalls are larger and have a lot of things, such as roast chicken, braised chicken, braised duck, and dried bean curd and vegetarian chicken bean curd cooked in brine. They sell more than a dozen things.
But no one sells pork head meat.
In addition, the things sold at those stalls are not cheap. Shi Zhen has seen before that many people go to them to buy dried tofu that has been deep-fried and then braised.
His pork head meat is not expensive and unique.
Residents in the town are not very interested in pig head meat. Many of them do not like fatty meat, but some farmers who are hard to get food in the town are still very interested in pig head meat.
The key is cheap.
These days, most people buy cheap food instead of delicious food.
One after another, people came to Shi Zhen to buy pork head meat.
Shi Zhende admitted that doing business in this era is much better than later generations. If nothing else, if a stall like him is set up twenty years later, no one will ask.
But here, in less than an hour, a pig's head was sold out.
Shi Zhen gave people more or less a fraction, and the twelve kilograms of cold-cut pork head sold for a total of 21 yuan.
What he lacks most now is a tricycle. Without a tricycle, he can't bring too many things to sell in the town. He can only come with a pig's head and a pig's head...
Shi Zhen went to the vegetable market to buy three pig heads, and by the way, left the stool with Zhu Butcher, and then went home.
It was only eight o'clock when Shi Zhen got home, and he cooked another pig's head. He went out at eleven o'clock and brought it to the town to sell.
Before going, he also put a pig's head in the pot, put the seasonings, filled it with firewood and simmered it, so that when he came back from a trip, the pig's head should have been stewed almost.
While doing this, he was still steaming the rice left over from last night on the steamer—now he has half-day school on Saturday, and Guan Baiyu will go home later.
Today is Saturday, and there are more people in the town than usual. The pig head that Shi Zhen brought this time was sold out in a short time.
He did not delay, and went home immediately.
When Shi Zhen returned this time, Guan Baiyu was adding a fire behind the stove, and the pig's head in the pot was almost cooked.
Shi Zhen sat down to rest, smiled and said to Guan Baiyu: "Bai Yu, I have sold two pig heads today, and I can sell another one later! I can earn ten yuan for one pig head, and I can earn thirty a day in the future. "
These days, the average worker earns over two hundred a month. If he can earn thirty a day, he can earn one thousand a month.
By then... the tricycle will be available.
Guan Baiyu's eyes lit up.
Shi Zhen was in a good mood, but he was also really tired.
For most of the day, he had almost no time to rest, especially every time he went to town with a pot, he had to walk for half an hour. Even if he was healthy, he couldn't bear it.
At three in the afternoon, Shi Zhen and Guan Baiyu went to town with the third pig head.
Instead of setting up a stall this time, they went to the place where Shi Xinghuo was digging river mud, where they sold out the pot of pork head meat.
This time Shi Zhen still sold one yuan and five kilograms, but he didn't give those workers a fraction of the money, but even so, Wang Chengfa and the others were not dissatisfied. The town is still small at the moment, and there are not many people from outside. They already know the news that there is a stall in the vegetable market selling pork head meat. They also know that Shi Zhen is selling two yuan a pound outside. .
After the sale, Shi Zhen went to buy a pack of dried noodles and planned to eat noodles in the evening to celebrate.
Wheat is not grown much in the south, and pasta appears to be more expensive.
For example, dumplings are eaten here as dishes.
A few years ago, some people would cook a bowl of vermicelli mixed with soy sauce and lard, put it in the middle of the table as a dish, and eat it with rice.
For various reasons, many people go to town and they must eat pasta, whether it is steamed buns, biscuits, fritters, or ravioli. If you don’t eat some pasta, you will not be considered to be in town.
However, Shi Zhen buys dried noodles mainly because Guan Baiyu likes to eat noodles.
When the two lived together, if he didn't go home for dinner, Guan Baiyu liked to toss with all kinds of pasta, and of course the most eaten was dried noodles.
"Are we going to mix noodles or noodle soup tonight?" Shi Xinghuo was also very interested in dried noodles.
Shi Zhen said: "The noodles can be eaten with the marinade that I kept before." The marinade of the pork head is very strong. Bai Yu and Shi Xinghuo would definitely like it.
Shi Zhen bought vermicelli because it cooks faster than rice. He was tired and hungry and wanted to eat hot noodles quickly.
He put the noodles in the pot, slid some green vegetables, and when the noodles were ready, he picked them up, mixed them into the marinade, and ate two big bowls in one go.
Shi Xinghuo also ate two big bowls, and even Guan Baiyu, who had the smallest appetite, ate a lot more than usual.
After eating, Shi Zhen continued to stew the pig's head - he wanted to earn money as soon as possible.
When Shi Zhen was stewing the pig's head last night, Guan Baiyu's little grandma came over, and tonight...
Not long after Shi Zhen started to stew, several people came.
Today, Guan Baiyu's house has been stewing the pig's head for almost a day. Many people come and go and smell the fragrance. Now that they come, they want to see what it is delicious.
Many people still want to buy some to go back.
