The journey of giving birth to a son

Chapter 19 Do it together as a family
In this way, the family has a clear division of labor. Jiang Kejian got up early to chop firewood, buy vegetables and do some menial work. Jiang Shiyi steamed the cold skin, while Shen Yunniang helped make chili oil and five spices. Jiang Hui's task was to wash the dishes. Although it was very tiring, the money in his hand was real. Jiang Shiyi felt that he was one step closer to his dream.

She can also try to make some new products.

Jiang Shiyi bought some cassava. She washed the cassava, scraped it, grated it, added water to precipitate it, filtered out the cassava starch, added water and stirred it well, then put it in a pot and simmered it over low heat, stirring it until it became thick. After the pot cools down, it turns into jelly.

After cooling, the jelly is translucent agate color, full of elasticity, and soft and waxy in texture. Mix it with ready-made five-spice water and chili oil, and sprinkle a small handful of coriander to make a fragrant and delicious snack.

Once the cassava jelly was launched, it quickly received good reviews and many people came to eat it.

After a few days, Jiang Shiyi thought of a way. Since he could make cassava jelly, could he also make cassava balls?
She used the above steps, filtered the tapioca flour, dried it, added water and kneaded it into a dough, then pulled it out one by one and rolled it into small balls. The small balls were placed in a pot and cooked, and then fished out again in ice water.

The cassava balls became crystal clear after being soaked in water. She took another blue and white bowl, spread a layer of ice powder on the bottom of the bowl, then added the made transparent cassava balls, boiled and cooled milk, sprinkled with snowflake sugar, Then top it with fresh chopped melon and peach, and you have an ice bowl. It tastes ice-cold, sweet and delicious, and is the best way to relieve the heat.

"Mom, come and try it to see if it tastes good or not?" Jiang Shiyi fed one to Shen Yun's mother.

"It's not delicious!" Shen Yunniang said.

"How could it not be delicious?" Jiang Hui said, "Mom, this is the most delicious."

It’s not that it’s not delicious, Shen Yunniang just has a bigger headache. She doesn’t know where her daughter comes from so many ideas in a day. Now it’s just more hard work. Jiang Kejian gets up early every day and is busy peeling, cleaning and grinding the cassava. She is responsible for filtering it. After drying and making meatballs, Jiang Shiyi was responsible for cooking. The workload of the day was even greater.

Jiang Shiyi's cassava meatball ice bowl has been well-received since it was launched. However, the price of this ice bowl is a bit expensive. Only some wealthy businessmen nearby and the daughters of small officials sent their maids to buy it. It only takes a few days for an ordinary family to eat like this. Once upon a time, I might as well buy cold skin with all this money, at least it would satisfy my hunger.

After a while, the fruit on top of the ice bowl will become expensive, and the ice bowl will not last long. It would be great if she had a dessert shop. With a dessert shop, she could make more desserts. Just think of it as an experiment!

Jiang Shiyi wrote these down and took stock of the money she earned again. In just one month, she earned more than ten taels of silver, which was higher than Shen Yunniang's two months' wages.

Jiang Shiyi said excitedly, "Mom, don't go out to work, come and do it with me! It's better for us to set up a stall and be free than to go to a wealthy family to watch people's looks."

Shen Yunniang said, "Your business is good now, but that's because the weather is hot now. If it gets cold after a while, you won't be able to do much!"

The food Shen Yunniang cooked in Shangshu Mansion was delicious, and her wages increased by one or two silver cents. She was reluctant to part with this fixed job.

What Shen Yunniang said is still right. In winter, the weather is freezing and nothing can be done outside. It is better to open a restaurant. After thinking about it, I have to wait until next year to open a restaurant.

Sure enough, after the beginning of autumn, with the autumn rain and cold, the business of Liangpi, jelly and sour plum soup was not so good.

Jiang Shiyi started thinking about making something again. She bought a stone mill to grind mung bean powder.

Shen Yunniang came in from the outside and saw her daughter tinkering with the stone mill. She couldn't help but stroke her forehead. She really had a headache!

Shen Yunniang walked straight over, invisible, I couldn't see!
As long as I can't see her, she won't ask me to do something.

"Sister, what are you doing?"

"I'm grinding mung bean powder!" "What does mung bean powder do?"

"Mung bean flour is very useful and can be used as starch."

"Sister, leave this matter to me!" Jiang Hui took over the handle. Jiang Hui is really a good boy. He is practical and conscientious in everything he does. He ground the mung bean powder in a short time.

Jiang Shiyi walked into the kitchen. In the large pot, a pot of fragrant and rich chicken soup was simmering.

Jiang Shiyi began to clean up the two large herrings on the chopping board. After cleaning them, she took a sharp knife and very skillfully cut the fish meat along the spine and chopped it into minced fish.

Add mung bean starch to the fish paste, then add the prepared onion and ginger water, sprinkle with pepper, salt, and egg white, beat evenly, stir in one direction, squeeze into fish balls after stirring, and place in clean water.

Each fish ball is white and chubby. They are squeezed together and look very cute.

"Sister, what delicious food did you make for me today?" Jiang Hui looked at the dishes on the table, including chopped cabbage, tofu, green vegetables, potato slices, wide vermicelli...

Jiang Shiyi beat a few more eggs and stirred them well. When the oil in the pot was 80% heated, she slowly poured the eggs into the pot from a high position. She turned them carefully to prevent them from burning, and then turned them over. , fry for a few more minutes, and this delicious piece of fried eggs is ready.

The fried eggs were fragrant and shiny. Jiang Hui sniffed and said, "Sister, can you eat?"

"Just wait a little longer!"

Jiang Hui looked at his sister, cooking all the vegetables in the pot and putting them into a large blue and white bowl.

The large bowl had been filled with boiling hot chicken soup, with red chili oil, salt, pepper powder and other condiments floating on it. Jiang Shiyi put the cooked vegetables into the bowl, and put them on top. I ordered a piece of fragrant fried egg.

The whiteness of the fish balls, the greenness of the vegetables, and the blackness of the fungus were all blended into such a bowl. The red and oily soup was soaked in, and Jiang Hui couldn't help but swallow.

It would be great if there were fried instant noodles. Jiang Shiyi immediately denied her idea. If she wanted fried instant noodles, Shen Yunniang's workload would increase several times. She couldn't bear to let her work hard!

Jiang Hui went into the house and asked his father and mother to come together for dinner, "Sister made delicious food again today, let's eat together!"

Jiang Kejian and Shen Yunniang sat down at the dining table, with a bowl of spicy hotpot in front of each of them.

Jiang Hui couldn't wait for a long time. He took a bite of the fried egg and took a bite. The fried egg had been soaked in the red oil soup and was a little soft. When he ate it, the spicy and delicious flavor rushed into his mouth.

The other ingredients are also very delicious - the potato slices are cut neither thin nor thick, and are taken out after boiling, retaining a bit of crispy texture, and the fish balls are soaked in red oil, put them in your mouth and bite them. Jumping up, the taste of tofu is bland originally, but with the addition of red oil soup, it melts in your mouth and has a unique flavor.

Jiang Hui couldn't help but nodded.
