Wearing eighty books, the little widow turns into a rich woman

Chapter 337

Yang Zhigang rolled his eyes: "You are a big winter melon! Look in the mirror yourself, your face is as round as the old pumpkin at home, let's see how you will get married in the future?"

"My mother said that even if a woman is blind, lame, or mangy, she will not worry about marrying, but if a man is short and thick..." Tong Xinglan looked at him and shook her head, "Tsk tsk, I think it's difficult!"

Qiaohui made a serious supplement: "That is, the idiots in our team are all wanted, like my second brother, he can only be the door-to-door son-in-law."

"Hmph!" Yang Zhigang rolled his eyes at the two of them: "There are so many people who like me!"

Lin Lan looked at the three of them, smiled and shook her head.

At this time, someone shouted: "Is there anyone, buy pumpkin pie."

"Slightly slightly~" Tong Xinglan stuck out her tongue at him, made a grimace, and went out with the baked honey buns.

In the afternoon, Yang Zhigang was helping out at the shop. Lin Lan brought some money, took the restaurant's business license, went to the Industrial and Commercial Bureau to pay the management fee, and paid the tax at the nearby tax bureau before going to the restaurant in the east of the city.

When I arrived at the door, I saw that the signboard had already been hung up. The name of the restaurant was "Home Cooked Dishes", which was thought of by Lin Zhangyou himself, and Xu Ming helped write it.

Zhao Xiaohui was wiping the table with an apron tied around her waist, and when she saw Lin Lan approaching, she smiled and greeted her: "Everything is packed, we will open tomorrow."

Lin Lan smiled and said, "Not bad, it's clean and bright. Customers can rest assured after seeing it."

Lin Changyou and his wife came out from behind.

Wu Shufen looked at her worriedly: "Xiao Lan, everything else is fine, but the meat is not easy to buy. If you buy too much, you are afraid of spoilage. If you buy too little, you are worried that it will not be enough."

Lin Lan handed the business license to Lin Changyou, and said to Wu Shufen, "Uncle Da has a refrigerator. When they come back, buy a refrigerator to freeze meat."

Wu Shufen remembered the long iron box she saw in the department store last year: "Refrigerators are so expensive, and they need electricity, so it's not worth it!"

"It's a good deal!" Lin Lan hugged her and sat down, "With a refrigerator, we can store more meat, and if we have suitable game, we can also buy some and freeze it. When guests order, we don't have to rush to buy it. If you can make it, you don’t have to worry about the meat spoiling.”

Lin Changyou persuaded her after hearing this: "Old woman, you can't save this thing. Just follow Xiaolan's advice and ask Xiangyang to buy one for you."

Wu Shufen thought about it and felt that Lin Lan's words made sense. You can't have customers come to your door, so you should go around to buy meat and stir-fry vegetables!
"Okay, we don't need tickets, we can buy them without tickets." Wu Shufen said this, remembering that Li Xiangyang hadn't come back yet, she looked at Lin Lan worriedly, "Xiangyang has been gone for several days, why hasn't he come back yet?"

Lin Lan smiled and said, "Uncle Da has to do something when he arrives in Yangcheng. Before he left, he said that there might be a delay of two days, and it might not be in time for your opening."

After hearing this, Wu Shufen felt relieved: "Opening the business is not a big deal, as long as Xiangyang is safe outside."

Lin Lan nodded and looked at Lin Changyou: "Dad, the coal will arrive tonight, should it be brought here, or over there?"

Lin Changyou said with a smile: "It's such a big car, let's let it go. I'm going to let your eldest brother and second brother make a storage basket to store coal, and pull it over when it's used up."

Seeing that they had already made arrangements, Lin Lan felt relieved: "Okay, I'll go to Limin Road to see that the shoe store is about to be ready."

"Douzi and Xiaojun are after school, we will pick them up, please be careful when riding." Lin Changyou said.

Lin Lan nodded, went out, got into the car and left.

Wu Shufen watched her walk away, and went back to the shop to hang up the business license.Zhao Xiaohui also went to the backyard to clean the fat intestines and pork belly together.

These must be prepared in advance, the fat intestines are braised in brown sauce, and the pork belly is used for cold or stir-fried tripe strips.

After preparing all the food materials for tomorrow morning, the three of them closed the shop and returned to Lexing. As soon as they walked to the gate of the courtyard, they heard the sound of the plane rubbing against the wooden board.

Seeing that the seedling field was about to be leveled, Lin Guoliang and Lin Guodong helped Lin Lan make a mixing bucket at home. When the millet turned yellow, there was no threshing machine, so the millet had to be threshed with a mixing bucket.

The plank was taken from Lin Lan's pigpen, and even the carpenter was carried by Lin Guoliang from Shi Lian.

The three of them walked into the yard, and Wangcai who was lying there looked up, then lay back again.

Lin Changyou asked the two of them to tidy up the wood first, and then go to the backyard to cut bamboo and weave baskets.

Seeing that Zhang Xiuqing was not there, Wu Shufen went to the private plot outside the house.

Zhang Xiuqing chopped the old water chestnuts in the private plot outside the house, and took them home to clean up the pickled mustard.

Wu Shufen walked over and asked, "Are you old?"

Zhang Xiuqing showed one to Wu Shufen: "You can see that it's a little mossy, you can't eat it if you don't cut it down."

"Lao Yezi picks up sauerkraut, chops the heads back to pickle pickled mustard, and eats porridge." Wu Shufen picked up the ones from the ground and put them in his back.

After a while, the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law returned to the yard with their backs, washed off the mud, peeled off the old skin, cleaned and cut into long strips as thick as the little finger, put them in a basin, poured an appropriate amount of salt and white wine, and marinated two or three Hours kill.

After they washed the vegetable leaves, scalded them and put them in the sauerkraut jar, the shredded cabbage that had been marinated for more than two hours had softened.

Wu Shufen's mother-in-law and daughter-in-law squeezed out the water from the marinated cabbage, put it into a gauze bag, and tied the mouth of the bag tightly with hemp rope.

Zhang Xiuqing found two wooden boards and put them on the large wooden basin, then put the steaming grate on top, put the gauze bag containing shredded mustard on it, put another steaming grate, and put a large basin of water on it to dry the shredded mustard residual moisture.

Wu Shufen took some prickly ash and fried it dry, crushed and sieved the prickly ash skin, mashed it into a powder, and mashed some sea pepper noodles, found five-spice powder and mixed it together for later use.

Zhang Xiuqing waited until the children came home from school before lifting the basin filled with water, uncovering the hemp rope tied to the gauze bag, grabbing a handful of mustard shreds, and looking at it, he saw that the water had been drained.

Zhao Xiaohui said with a smile: "Sister-in-law, two days in the sun is the best, and mustard with too much water tends to turn sour."

Zhang Xiuqing shook her head: "No need, the water has dried up, mix it with seasoning and marinate for a few days."

Wu Shufen came out of the kitchen with a clay pot that could hold two catties in one hand and a bucket bowl in the other: "Xiaohui, go get some more pots out."

"Oh!" Zhao Xiaohui went to the kitchen.

Wu Shufen and Zhang Xiuqing poured half of the mustard shreds from the gauze bag into a porcelain basin, mixed them with seasoning and kneaded them vigorously, put them into a jar, pressed them tightly, covered them with a piece of oil paper, and then solidified them with bamboo strips.

Zhang Xiuqing closed the lid, straightened her waist, and said with a smile, "Okay, you can eat it after a few days of marinating."

Wu Shufen nodded: "Let Xiaolan send a can to her uncle and Xu Dong brothers tomorrow morning."

Zhang Xiuqing glanced at her and said, "Mom, I want to spread some more vegetable seeds, make more pickled mustard, and give each table a small dish."

After hearing this, Wu Shufen understood what she meant, and said with a smile, "Okay! Let's make more kimchi then, and give each table a plate after mixing."

Zhao Xiaohui hurriedly said: "I don't know how to do it. I specialize in sweeping the floor, washing dishes and cleaning."

Zhang Xiuqing said with a smile: "Xiaohui, Liying said that washing dishes is a tiring job, so let's go together then."

Lin Changyou, who was weaving and hoarding baskets, looked at his mother-in-law and daughter-in-law with satisfaction: "Okay, everything is going well at home."
