Chapter 25
When Father Xu saw the extra things in the kitchen, he couldn't help but frowned, "Ning'er, where did this fish and shrimp come from? Are you in the water?"
Xu Jianing didn't feel that anything was wrong.
She couldn't wait to show off the fruits of her labor, "Father, look at that big crucian carp, I caught it with bare hands. How about it, am I good?"
Xu's father shook his head helplessly, "You girl, if you want to eat fish in the future, just tell Dad, and Dad will help you catch it. But this fish is really not tasty, it's too fishy. Many people would rather go to the mountains to find wild vegetables, I don’t want to eat this stuff either.”
"There's also this clam. If you want to play, just pick up some and play with it. Why do you take so much? This thing can't be eaten, so don't go into the water in the future."
Xu Jianing was not annoyed either, she fished out the largest mussel from the bucket, opened the mouth of the mussel with a knife, and the meat inside was revealed.
"Father, look, the meat in this mussel is edible. Really, whether it's stir-fried or made into soup, it tastes very good. Look how fat its meat is!"
Xu Jianing pulled it casually, and even pulled out a pearl.
She said in surprise, "Father, pinch me quickly to see if I'm dreaming!"
Father Xu looked at her with some amusement, "What did you fish out? Why does it look familiar?"
"Pearl, dad, I didn't expect to find a pearl for me. I'm worried that I don't have any money. Tomorrow, I'll go to the jewelry store in the town and ask how much this kind of pearl can sell for."
Before they could react, Xu Jianing walked out quickly, using the excuse that there was not much firewood.
When she came to an open space, she quickly summoned the little cute beast in the space, "Cute, tell me, is this pearl a treasure?"
"Congratulations, master, you have obtained a century-old pearl."
"What? A hundred-year-old pearl!" Xu Jianing didn't expect that she would find a century-old pearl by scouring in the water casually.This luck is really desperate.
She calmed down, found some dead branches outside, and took them back.
Xu Jiayin, the eldest sister in the kitchen, was not affected by her previous words.
Seeing her return, Xu Jiayin pointed to the contents of the bucket and said, "What should we do with these mussels?"
"It's the first time I've seen pearls growing in mussels. Ning'er, you are really amazing. A better-looking pearl flower is worth a lot of money. Back then..."
As if thinking of something sad, Xu Jiayin suddenly became silent.
Xu Jianing didn't know how to comfort her.He stepped forward and took her hand, "Sister, everything is over. After our family has survived this period and made money a year ago, I will definitely buy you better jewelry."
Xu Jiayin shook her head at her, "I don't need those jewelry. I just thought of unhappy things and was disgusted by someone."
"After I divorced, I returned all the things that person secretly gave me. But a few days ago, I saw one of the jewelry on Lanhua's head. I guess it should be given to her by that person! "
Xu Jianing was so angry that her fingers crackled.It's so embarrassing. Sooner or later, she has to settle this account with them one by one.
Their eldest sister, such a good person, was rejected by others because of a change in the family.It even got to the point of retiring.
When she retired, she retired, and rumors spread that her eldest sister was crazy.For an unreliable man, as for?
In the countryside, if someone withdraws their marriage maliciously, their reputation will be ruined, and it will be very difficult to remarry in the future.Especially in a situation like theirs, it was even more difficult.
She didn't know how to comfort her, so she simply changed the subject.
Worried that there were still pearls in the mussels, she opened them one by one to see, and removed the mussel meat piece by piece.
Soon, the mussel meat on the plate piled up.
But they didn't see the second pearl.For this result, Xu Jianing was a little disappointed.
She knew in her heart that with such a pearl alone, she would definitely not be able to fetch a good price.
If this pearl can be used to make jewelry, the effect will be quite different.
It's just that there are no tools, and there is no valuable jewelry in their family that can be fused together. This idea is quite difficult to actually operate.Basically can't finish it.
But it doesn't matter, she had quite a lot of jewelry in her previous life, and she was also a designer, so it's not a problem to design a random jewelry pattern.How can sell a good price.
She made up her mind to go to the jewelry store tomorrow to learn about the market situation.Selling pearls is fake, trying to sell jewelry patterns is real.
She couldn't tell her parents about this, because it was hard to explain.
After all, in the eyes of everyone, she is just a country girl born and bred.With her knowledge, she couldn't do such a thing at all.
She touched her hungry and aching stomach, and sighed silently.
The most important thing right now is to have enough food, clothing and a place to live.There is nothing more important than being able to survive well.
Looking at the mussel meat on the plate, she swallowed.
She wants to eat fried clam meat.According to the method in memory, she put the washed mussels into boiling water for a while, and quickly fished them out.
Cut the fished mussels into shreds, then shred the green and red peppers, sliced ginger and minced garlic and set aside for later use.
Add an appropriate amount of cooking oil to the pot, add sliced ginger and minced garlic to sauté until fragrant, then pour shredded green peppers and shredded red peppers into the pot and stir-fry over high heat, add mussels and stir-fry together, add some salt, Kind of seasoning, soon fragrant.
Xu Jianing tried some with chopsticks, and the taste was pretty good.
When the eldest sister Xu Jiayin didn't notice, she quickly picked up a chopstick and stuffed it into her mouth, "Sister, try it, it tastes really good."
Thinking of her big plan, she pretended to be nonchalant and asked, "Sister, do you know who in our village still has pens, inks, papers and inkstones?"
If you want to sell jewelry designs, you have to draw things first.
Given the current situation of their family, those things are completely impossible to have.
Taking chances, she wanted to see if there was anyone who had those things in the homes of acquaintances.
But she forgot, how could their eldest sister know?
Sure enough, soon, her eldest sister shook her head at her.
Just when she was about to give up, her eldest sister said with some uncertainty, "If I remember correctly, Doctor Liu should have it. I remember that he wrote a prescription when he was treating my mother and the others."
Xu Jianing touched the century-old pearl in his pocket, and sighed helplessly.I don't know how much this one will cover the cost of medicine.
