Rebirth of farming for a living

Chapter 28 Shopkeeper Du



On this day, Wang went to sell braised pork as usual.Li Qiuyan got up and took Awang to the fields with a basket of sweet potato seedlings.

The ground was already bare. More than an acre of land was plowed neatly. Li Qiuyan and Awang planted the seeds carefully. However, the two of them were small and weak, so they only planted two rows after a long time.

At this time, Mrs. Wang had come back and asked Li Xiangnan. She came to help in the fields.

Seeing how Li Qiuyan and Li Qiuyan looked crooked, Wang couldn't stop laughing, took over and drove Li Qiuyan away.Li Qiuyan was still uneasy and told Wang how to plant the seeds. Wang was already an experienced farmer and quickly finished planting a basket of sweet potato seedlings.

The group of people went home together and prepared to do it after lunch.

A few people had a casual lunch. Li Qiuyan was not very good at planting. Wang asked Li Qiuyan to rest at home before going to get the pigs in the water. She carried a basket of sweet potato seedlings to the ground.

In the past few days, people have started bringing cabbage over, and the house is full of cabbage.The cucumbers have begun to fight, and will soon be gone.Side dishes should also be prepared.Li Qiuyan took a piece of cabbage and wanted to try pickled sauerkraut first.

First cut the cabbage into thin shreds and then blanch it in boiling water.Put it into the boiled and cooled rice soup and cover it.Just wait one night.

When Mr. Wang came back from planting sweet potatoes, Li Qiuyan happened to make dinner, stir-fried pork lungs and vegetables.Steamed steamed buns with noodles and cooked rice porridge.

Mrs. Wang felt very happy. Although she was tired after a long day, she had ready-made food to eat when she got home.Li Xiangnan held a steamed bun in his hand: "My daughter's craftsmanship is getting better and better." Li Qiuyan only smiled.She also asked Mrs. Wang to buy some pork belly for her tomorrow.

"Pork belly?" Wang asked a little strangely at first, "Yes, buy more." Wang thought Li Qiuyan was greedy, so she agreed immediately.

The next day, Mrs. Wang did come back with pork belly, but she didn't look very good.Behind him was a man with a big belly, and the boy next to him was holding two boxes of gifts.

It turns out that today, the shopkeeper of Yipinxuan, a big restaurant in town, came to Wang and wanted to buy recipes for cleaning pig waste and cooking pig waste.

These days, Wang's business at the dock is booming, and even the rich people in the town have heard about it. However, due to status issues, it is difficult to go to the dock to buy.

Yipinxuan wants to do this business.I found Wang while she was closing her stall and talked to her about pigs in water.Wang didn't know what to say, she just said to discuss it with her family when she got home.

Unexpectedly, the big shopkeeper, Shopkeeper Du, brought his servant and drove the carriage back with her.

Wang had no choice but to come back with a piece of it.

Shopkeeper Du is in his forties, and his reasons for doing business seem to be very naughty.It's not unpleasant at first.Seeing Li Xiangnan sitting in the yard weaving bamboo baskets, I laughed and started chatting with Li Xiangnan.

Li Qiuyan listened to Wang's story and smiled when she saw Wang's serious face: "Mom, what's wrong with you?" Wang was confused: "I was also mentally prepared, saying that I couldn't sell it during the Chinese New Year. But if this business is sold, I feel reluctant to give it to Yipinxuan."

Li Qiuyan laughed: "Mom, don't worry."

Shopkeeper Du saw Li Qiuyan and Wang come out and looked at their expressions, and he had an idea in his heart, knowing that this little girl was probably the one in charge.He didn't look down on Li Qiuyan because of her young age, so he smiled and asked Li Qiuyan what he meant.

Li Qiuyan didn't beat around the bush: "Shopkeeper Du, my mother told me what happened. I can sell you this pig-in-water method." Shopkeeper Du was overjoyed, and Li Qiuyan added: "But, my method is actually not practical." The food is not exquisite. The people who go to your restaurant to eat are either rich or noble, so you can't just serve them to the table with spoonfuls of pig water, right? That seems a bit neglectful."

Shopkeeper Du pondered: "From what the girl says, there seems to be a better way."

Li Qiuyan smiled confidently: "My mother went to the dock to sell it. She made big pot dishes because of convenience. If she enters a restaurant, she will naturally have a more sophisticated way of selling it."

Shopkeeper Du hurriedly handed over his hands: "Please give me some advice, girl."

Li Qiuyan said that since they were all here, he would invite shopkeeper Du and the boy Wang Fuyi to have lunch here so that they could see how much the food was worth.

When he returned to the kitchen, Li Qiuyan felt happy. He thought he would have to work hard for a while to finish the two-penny business, and then harvest the sweet potatoes before taking off again.Unexpectedly, the golden finger opened.

Mrs. Wang came in to help, and Li Qiuyan worked together to cook a pair of pig intestines and lungs. She planned to make a braised large intestine and a stir-fried lung.These two dishes do not need to be cooked for a long time like braised pork head. They only need to be blanched first, then briefly boiled, fried and then stir-fried.

After all, they are guests here for dinner, and they will definitely not be able to cook just two dishes. Li Qiuyan lifted up the jar of pickled cabbage and smelled the sourness of the cabbage. Wang came over curiously: "Oh, my dear, this really smells like pickled cabbage. You How did you do it?" Li Qiuyan smiled and said nothing.
