Ten years as a substitute!Now that she leaves, she regrets it too much

Lin Nvxia's volunteering instantly cast a shadow over Lao Zhang and Ruojia.

They really didn't consider this at the time!
If they had thought that Lin Nuxia would also participate in the preparation of the New Year's dinner, they might as well have suggested going out to eat from the beginning.

Anyway, many hotels now don’t close during the Chinese New Year.

When Lao Zhang thought of Lin Xixi's craftsmanship, he couldn't help but break into a cold sweat.

How should I put it? To be fair, what Xiaolin-san makes is really good, but it only goes so far. All the problems with taste...

Anyway, she couldn't change it now.

Lao Zhang felt helpless immediately and had no choice but to look at Jiang An for help.

Brother, you have to let us eat something good during the Chinese New Year!

Although different parts of the country eat different things during the New Year, the customs are basically the same, that is, leaving some to eat on the second day, or even the third day.

The thought of having to eat Lin Xixi's cooking for several days in a row made Lao Zhang feel even more hopeless.

But fortunately, Jiang An already had countermeasures.

Since he dared to "boldly" propose the idea of ​​cooking at home today, he must have been prepared to deal with Nvxia Lin.

"Xi Xi, I'm actually cooking for the Chinese New Year. It seems like there are a lot of dishes but one person can't handle it all. I just need a helper."

"But how can we, Xiaolin, do this kind of work?"

"Oh?"

Lin Xixi's mouth bulged: "Dog man, are you worried about my craftsmanship?"

"Absolutely not." Jiang An's indifferent smile at this moment somewhat dispelled Lin Xixi's suspicion, but it could not stop Lin Nvxia from holding on to him and asking questions.

"Then tell me, if I don't help you, what do you want me to do?"

"Make dumplings!"

Jiang An had already thought about it, and planned to let Lin Xixi and Ruojia make dumplings together, make spring rolls, and make some youth balls and so on.

To control these things, he only needed to prepare the dough and fillings, and let the two girls assemble the rest.

"Huh? That's all?"

Classmate Xiao Lin felt that it was not satisfying at all: "How many dumplings can we make?"

This time, before Jiang An could speak, Lao Zhang directly "sacrificed" himself: "No amount is too much, I like to eat anyway!"

"Aren't you supposed to love spring rolls?"

Lin Xixi raised her eyebrows, waiting for his answer.

Lao Zhang hurriedly said: "I really like to eat spring rolls, but after eating them for so many years, I still can't slow down?"

"Besides, the big stuffed dumplings in the north are famous all over the country, so I happened to have a good time this time."

"Really?"

Seeing his impatience and a bit unable to stop, Lin Xixi really believed him: "Well, if that's the case, I will take care of you right then and there."

"How much can Lao Zhang eat?"

Speaking of this, Zhang Zhejie didn't know why she suddenly had a brain twitch. In an instant, she remembered a documentary she had seen on TV before.

It was as if the words of the protagonist slipped out of his mouth.

"I think I'll just book a few houses. Anyway, I like it!"

"How many houses?"

In an instant, Lin Xixi's face turned dark: "Aren't you kidding me? Are you kidding me? How can you eat them all with so many bags?"

"Of course."

Even though Lao Zhang felt a little regretful at the moment, he still chose to persevere and fight to the end: "How can I say that I want to have enough? If it's too little, how can I have enough?"

"it is good!"

Lin Xixi smiled slightly and stared into his eyes: "This is what you said. Don't deny it when the time comes."

"Don't worry! It's the puppy who doesn't admit it!"

Although Lao Zhang regretted it, he later thought that with the characters of Lin Nvxia and his Ruojia, making dumplings was actually quite a challenge for them.

After all, it's all repetitive work, so if the two girls get bored by then, wouldn't it be fine?

If it weren't for this, he wouldn't have dared to be so tough with Lin Nvxia just now.

Jiang An didn't care about the "bet" between them. The key now was that he wanted to tell Lin Xixi the custom of making dumplings.

"I know."

Before he could finish his words, Lin Xixi said proudly: "Are you going to add a few coins to it?" "Yes!"

Jiang An smiled slightly: "I don't know about other families, but our family calls this a treasure."

"Whoever gets the treasure will have prosperous fortune next year."

"Frog fun, really?" Lao Zhang's eyes suddenly lit up when he heard this: "Then if it goes according to what you said, I think it would be better to put a coin in each dumpling. In this way, wouldn't we always have money? ?”

"..."

Jiang An chose to refuse to explain his whims.

But Lin Xixi, who was kind-hearted, said from the side: "That won't work. I remember that there should be a few people eating together, and you can only put a few in at most."

"Or just put one."

"Don't."

Zhang Zhejie said hurriedly: "Let's put four in, otherwise I'm worried that I won't be happy if I can't eat them!"

He's really particular about these.

"No problem." Lin Xixi looked at him confidently: "Then wrap four coins in it, but we have agreed that when eating dumplings, you are not allowed to choose."

"rest assured."

Zhang Zhejie smiled slightly; "Am I that kind of person?"

……

After several people discussed it, they simply ate something and agreed to take a day off before going shopping.

In the early morning of the next day, Jiang An cruelly dragged Zhang Zhejie up.

"It's still dark outside. Are you planning to take me on a long march?"

Lao Zhang sat on the sofa in the living room and yawned non-stop: "I said we should go back and sleep for a while. I'll see what you can buy when you come out so early."

Jiang An smiled slightly and patted his shoulder solemnly: "If you really can't buy anything, will I torture you?"

"Now I'm going to ask you to buy some fruits and seafood."

"That's it?"

Lao Zhang almost cried: "Can't we buy that thing during the day?"

"Of course not."

When Jiang An was talking, he had already pulled him towards the door: "Let's go to the purchase market now. Not only are the prices there cheap, but more importantly, the ingredients are fresh."

"It doesn't matter whether it's money or not, the key is that the stuff is really good."

Jiang An has personal experience. For example, if they buy apples in a supermarket, the freshness level may reach 70%, but if they go to the purchasing market, the freshness level will be close to 90%, and You can also choose different maturity levels according to your own needs.

“That way we only have to make one trip and we don’t have to buy anything again after that.”

Many fruits can be stored for a long time in their packaging at the market.

"Well, you defeated me!"

Even if Lao Zhang had no strength, he still knew that he had no choice at all.

"Is the market you mentioned far away?" Sitting in the passenger seat, Zhang Zhejie rubbed his sleepy eyes: "Should we replace this driver?"

"Come on."

After starting the car, Jiang An said: "Do you think this is in the Magic City? Although Spring City is also very big, these markets are still in the city."

"About an hour or so!"

Seventy-eight lines!

As the largest and most famous fruit distribution center in Spring City, although it is only two o'clock in the middle of the night, this place is already busy, with an endless stream of delivery vehicles.

"Do you think it's hot or lively here?" Jiang An pointed to the people who were still busy: "Basically every day it gets busy here after midnight."

"And now you see that this place is full of people, but decades ago this was also a place where conflicts often occurred. Now you can just come here and buy things."

"But that wasn't possible in the past. If you didn't know someone, you could easily get beaten."

Lao Zhang tilted his head and looked at him: "Aren't you kidding me? Are you going to get beaten when you buy something?"

"What do you think?" Jiang An gave a helpless smile: "Actually, don't talk about this side. When I was in Shanghai, many people told me about the situation there."

"Actually, it's all the same. It was all because many conditions were not complete at that time, which led to the emergence of such a special group of people."

"But it's okay now; and I'm telling you all this because we're going to meet a friend of mine here later."

In Jiang An's words, he was the big boss who used to be on the 78th line. (End of chapter)
