Princess of Nongmen

Chapter 321 Reserve Vegetables
Liu Ya just saw that the dishes on the long table were quite good, and the variety was more than that of the Li family. It seems that the Wu family is indeed a big family in Pingshan Village, and they can come here to buy vegetables in the future.

After thinking about it, Liu Ya asked: "If I buy a lot of vegetables and meat in the future, can you help me send them there? Or simply help to tidy up the vegetables, it is best to wash them Wash it to make the dishes look brighter?"

The woman thought for a while after hearing this, and said: "Yes. As long as you don't leave the village, you can send it anywhere. But you said you need to wash the vegetables? This vegetable will rot easily after being exposed to water, and it won't last long. If you promise to buy it, I will wash it for you and send it away. Anyway, the well water is free, and I can help you pick off the dead leaves and vegetable roots, and rinse the water again.”

Liu Ya felt that the woman was quite straightforward, so she said, "Don't worry, I will guarantee to buy the vegetables that you have washed, and I must not let the vegetables rot in your hands. How about this, I will buy the vegetables that I want to buy one day in advance. I will give you half of the money if I order it. You pick the vegetables for me in the morning, wash them and send them over, and I will give you the other half of the money."

"That's fine, let's make it so." The woman was very happy, and agreed immediately.

Liu Ya also felt that this would save a lot of trouble, at least the source of food would be fixed.There will be some floating soil when the vegetables are picked from the garden that day. If the weather is hot, they will be dehydrated for a long time and they will definitely wilt.The water will be bright for at least a day after going through it once.Put it in a small bamboo shed to show the guests that the ingredients are clean and fresh, and the appearance is good.

Liu Ya gave the money to buy pork and Chinese cabbage, and then said: "If there is no accident, I will come over to order food with you tonight?"

"Okay." The woman agreed simply and neatly.

Just as Liu Ya went out with the wrapped meat and Chinese cabbage, the woman stopped her again and said, "Young girl of the Liu family, come back."

Liu Ya was stunned for a moment, looked at the things in her hand, and thought that she had paid a lot.

The woman said with a smile: "The buns stuffed with pork and cabbage are not delicious without green onions. I'll pull out two green onions for you. This one doesn't cost money, and it's a big customer like you."

After finishing speaking, the woman walked towards the backyard, and after a while, she came over with a handful of green onions in her hand.Bundled it with a straw rope and stuffed it into Liu Ya's hand.

Liu Ya took a look, these are not two scallions, at least five or six.She felt embarrassed at first, but when she was about to ask how much it would cost, the woman pushed Liu Ya and said, "Let's go, it's okay, it's just a few green onions. Even if the onion seeds fall into the ground and grow on their own, it doesn't take much effort to plant them specially." .In the future, when you come to buy vegetables, I will give you green onions, ginger, and garlic. Cooking can enhance the taste, and stewed meat can remove the fishy smell."

Liu Ya didn't expect this woman to be so enthusiastic, and she looked good, so she thanked her and left with her things.

Going far away and looking back, I saw the woman was still leaning against the door and looking at me, with a smile on her face.

Back at Chunniu's house, Chunniu has already packed up the things that should be used today. The noodle case and rolling pin are all packed and ready to be carried to Xiaoshuipu.Seeing Liu Ya came back, he smiled and said: "Let's go, everything is packed. These things are not commonly used at home, so I put them there first. I also took the big iron pot. I don't have any pots at home at night. How about Let's go to your house to eat."

Liu Ya knew that Chun Niu was joking, but she was telling the truth.She is really doing her best to run the small water shop business, otherwise she wouldn't be able to move all her family's things to the small water shop, but she didn't even care about it.

Liu Ya also smiled and said, "Okay, come on. It's just two more pairs of chopsticks. There are more people eating and it's still lively."

Chun Niu picked up her things, closed the door with her hands back, and said: "Forget it, I'm just kidding you. Actually, Siping and I are just two people, and we can talk about eating and so on. I also thought about it. If the things that day can't be sold, I’ll take it home and eat it, so I don’t have to make dinner and breakfast. Or when Siping picks me up there, we can cook a meal there. Anyway, there are pots and stoves, and we can do it anywhere. Same convenience."

After hearing this, Liu Ya thanked her in her heart, knowing that Chun Niu thought carefully and thoughtfully, and it was also to prevent herself from worrying.After remembering her kindness, Liu Ya didn't say much.Just helping Chun Niu carry things, the two of them went up the mountain together.

Today Chunniu was carrying a lot of things, so Liu Ya asked her to go to the small water shop first, and she went to fetch water from the spring by herself, and then walked up the mountain with the bamboo tube on her shoulders.

Halfway through the walk, Chun Niu hurried over again, took the bamboo tube from Liu Ya's hand, it seemed that Liu Ya was not allowed to work more.

Liu Ya only got half of Chun Niu's score, and she carried half by herself, and then said: "Are you treating me like your boss to curry favor with me, or are you treating me like a child and can't bear to make me tired?"

Chun Niu laughed as soon as she heard it, and said: "I have it all. You are so thin, and I feel distressed when I look at it. Can I still let you work? I think these two bamboo tubes are thicker than your waist. I am afraid that you will carry them." Don’t move. Besides, I’m trying to please your boss, without you, how can I have a good life as a spring girl. I’m afraid I’ll be sold to a lunatic now, or just ruined to death by a lunatic.”

Liu Ya glared at her, and said: "Okay, don't talk about those unhappy things. I know you are suffering in your heart, but you have to look forward after all. Isn't this day getting better and better. By the way, always Didn't ask, how is your father's illness?"

Hearing Liu Ya's question about her father's situation, Chunniu's eyes darkened slightly, she shook her head and said, "It's still the same, but at least there is no danger of life."

After hearing this, Liu Ya understood that for such a poor family, the medical expenses of a few taels of silver may not be enough to get medical treatment.His life was saved, but the cost of long-term treatment is definitely not small, and it is estimated that Chun Niu is also powerless.

In order not to make Chunniu too upset, Liu Ya stopped asking.Fortunately, I have already arrived at Xiaoshuipu, and I am busy with selling food on the first day of opening, kneading noodles and mixing fillings, so I don't have much time to gossip about these things.

Liu Ya thinks she is good at cooking, so the job of mixing the stuffing is taken care of.But chopping minced meat is a laborious job. Chun Niu said she came, and she took the kitchen knife and said "dang dang dang", but the minced meat was chopped very quickly.

Liu Ya had already peeled the cabbage clean, and by the way told Chun Niu about ordering food at Wu's house.Said: "Let's study and make some simple and affordable stir-fried dishes today, and pay the deposit at night, and start tomorrow to have a few more dishes."

After finishing speaking, Liu Ya asked again: "I just don't know who that young woman is? She looks very real and warm."

Chunniu thought about it and said, "It should be the second sister-in-law of the Wu family." After a pause, Chunniu explained again: "She is not the wife of the second uncle of the Wu family, but a concubine married by the eldest of the Wu family."
