Chapter 68

Afterwards, I taught Aunt Tian to stir-fry greens with Sister-in-law Wang and Daju, and it was also very smooth, both the heat and the frying time were just right.This made Lin Baozhu heave a sigh of relief, but at the same time, he also felt infinitely that the masters are among the people.

In fact, it's not as suspenseful as she thought, but the women in the village have long been used to cooking in iron pots. Cooking the best meals with the least things is a survival skill.You know, if they use an extra piece of firewood and stir fry for a while, they will feel that things are wasted and spoiled.And how can it be like Lin Baozhu, no matter whether it is cooking or lighting a fire, there is no need to worry about not having enough firewood.

Although she taught the method of making and frying green tea, Lin Baozhu was not worried that someone would learn it secretly. After all, the biggest difference between the tea she made and other people's tea was the fermentation and refining.As long as you hold on to this point, you will not be afraid of others stealing the teacher, let alone worrying that others will steal the business by imitating her method of making tea.

What's more, even if those people know how to ferment and how to refine, just the exacting and extremely demanding kung fu will not be able to master it in a short time.

Anyway, after this division of labor, Lin Baozhu was finally able to breathe a sigh of relief for a while.At least, I no longer have to work day and night like before, getting up early and working late at night.

Now, except for refining the tea before the final tea, the rest of her is bookkeeping and shipping.The same is true for Zhang Mantun. In addition to following Master Dong and Master Liu to inspect the tea garden, the rest is to lead Big Wolf and a few men who guard the mountain to patrol around.Occasionally, I would go to the newly built house to have a look. The most tiring thing was just carrying the tea to the town to deliver tea and collect money.

The work became easier, and Zhangji Tea House gradually took shape.Drying the greens, frying them, and finally packing them for shipment, all the people who are agile are gathered together, and the Zhang family is booming day by day.

And those who can stay and work in Zhang Ji are really happy now.The work is not tiring, and the wages are high. The kind host not only manages the food, but also often boils some herbal tea to relieve the heat for everyone to drink. Even if the children come to play with them, they can get a bowl.

They don't know anything else, but they do know about En Tubao.Therefore, one by one is extremely attentive to the work, and there are seldom things that delay work or grind foreign workers.Even sister-in-law Daju and Lanhua often helped Lin Baozhu cook and tidy up after work because of frustration.

When she was free, Lin Baozhu realized that she hadn't improved her food for a long time.Ever since I bought Shantou, in order to make money, I have always made do with one meal after another. Even if I have a little time, I wish I could get into the tea room to fry tea, so why would I want to change the pattern and then make food?

But now, my income is considered stable, and I don't have to use the night as day as before, so I don't want to be harsh on my appetite anymore.Thinking of this, she suddenly remembered the soybeans she had begged from Aunt Tian and Aunt Ma's house.

Left and right have nothing to do now, so they simply dig out the beans and soak them in water, and wait until the next day they are soaked thoroughly before going to the village stone mill to grind them into soy milk.In this hot day, although there is no ice cream and air conditioner to relieve the heat, eating some refreshing cold dishes is also comforting.

She didn't want to drink iced soy milk, but thought about making some yuba by herself, and then mixed it with dried wild vegetables.Just eat it fresh.

In the past, Lin Baozhu never thought that one day she would have to go to such trouble just to eat cold bean curd sticks.You must know that in the previous life, ten yuan could buy a lot of dried bean curd sticks.

That night, Zhang Mantun went to the town to deliver the goods and came back. As soon as he entered the door, he could smell the fragrance of the kitchen for a while.Even though he is not a picky eater, he couldn't help but take a deep breath.The daughter-in-law's cooking skills are enough to make people greedy, not to mention that he is still hungry now, so he can't help but swallow his saliva.

Hearing the sound, Lin Baozhu was holding a small basin in one hand, and was stirring the salted meat with salt and soy sauce in the other hand to sink it out. Seeing that her husband had returned, she was extremely happy.

"I'm eating minced pancakes today. You wash your hands first, and you'll be fine later." As she spoke, she smelled the minced meat, and felt that the smell seemed to be worse, so she went into the stove again to think about it. Go chop some home-grown Chinese cabbage for a taste.

As soon as she said this, she quickly mixed the minced meat with her hands and wrapped it into the bread.Then, the prickling oil was put into the pan, and when it was so hot that it started to smoke, Lin Baozhu put the prepared cake in and pushed it back and forth a few times.After a while, pancakes full of meat fragrance came out of the pan.

Just at this moment, Zhang Mandun also came in shaking the water beads in his hand. Seeing his daughter-in-law was sweating profusely, he knelt down spontaneously to add firewood.

In this way, the tall and burly man nestled in front of the stove to make a fire, while the pretty and handsome woman poured pancakes upside down and directed the man to add or bury the fire.The originally warm kitchen exuded warmth and sweetness through the cooperation of the two of them.

After the pies were all baked, Lin Baozhu placed them on the chopping board and cut a few sharp knives. Looking at the meat pies, which were charred on the outside and tender on the inside, she immediately burst into a smile.The delicious and delicious meat stuffing, coupled with the crispy cake surface, makes people feel that it must be full of fragrance before biting.

"Go and set a table in the yard, there will be big bone soup and rice in a while." Lin Baozhu stuffed the small pot with the meatloaf into Zhang Mandun's hand, and commanded without any politeness, "To improve the food today, You remember to ask Master Liu and Master Dong to come over and eat together." After thinking about it, she simply wrapped more than a dozen meatloaf with steamed grate cloth, and planned to give Aunt Tian a few to eat later.

It was agreed to take care of a meal at noon, but it has not been implemented for a few days, and several sisters-in-law and aunts who came to work said it was inconvenient.At first, the whole family relied on them to fight against the pot. If they didn't go home, maybe the whole family would go hungry.Second, I came to eat with the host's family. Although the food was good and oily, it was a bit embarrassing to eat.In this way, everyone discussed it, and simply went home to eat.

Fortunately, Lin Baozhu paid a lot of wages, so the big guy didn't bother about eating one more meal and one less meal.

However, the men who patrolled the mountain with Zhang Mandun didn't have so many taboos. Whenever it was time for meals, they would eat the meals delivered by the master's house on the spot under the tea garden.They were also used to eating and drinking water while working in the mountains, so they were naturally not picky.Even sometimes, they simply join the masonry team who built the house over there and set up two benches to eat, bragging so much.

Lin Baozhu is not a harsh person, and she is willing to sell favors in daily dealings with others.What's more, working together these days can be regarded as showing some feelings.

She thought to herself, now she is in front of Aunt Tian's door.Seeing that someone was setting up a table in the yard and planning to eat, he hurriedly sent the meatloaf over, and then said with a smile that he refused to stay with Mrs. Tian's family, and went to another house.

At the end, there were still two pieces of meatloaf left on the grate of the basket. After thinking about it, she simply turned a corner and went all the way to Mrs. Lu's house.

When I arrived at Mrs. Lu's house, I happened to see a whole family eating porridge on a small table.In the middle of the table was a bowl of very small cut pickles. Even so, Mrs. Lu and Old Man Liu were still reluctant to eat it, and kept putting it in their grandson's leftover bowl.

It's fine to drink porridge without vegetables, if you don't eat some salt, I'm afraid the whole person will collapse.This was also the first time that Lin Baozhu saw Liu Jincai who was rumored to be studying outside.

Most of them are scholars, but they look a little bookish, although they are thin and even weaker.But his behavior was quite organized, and when he saw someone coming, he hurriedly called his sister-in-law.Although he didn't say much else, he didn't think too highly of himself, instead he was humble.

Unlike Zhang Mandun's strong and sturdy man, Liu Jincai is very thin, and he is wearing light gray clothes that are even washed a little whitish and full of patches, which doesn't make people feel unspirited.From Lin Baozhu's point of view, this person can be regarded as neither humble nor overbearing, and he has that timeless spirit, which is rare in this poor land.Such a person is afraid that he will be worthless if he doesn't worry about it.

She seemed to have heard Mrs. Lu say that the last time she ended up, her son was delayed because old man Liu was seriously ill.Now that the autumn test is coming, I don't know if the family has made up the money.

Thinking of this, she couldn't help sighing, even if Mrs. Lu and Old Man Liu were both working in Zhang Ji, it would be difficult for her son to take the scientific examination for only two or three months.

"My daughter-in-law, why are you here?" Mrs. Lu came out of the kitchen and saw Lin Baozhu entering the door with a basket on her shoulders.Immediately overjoyed, he put down half a bowl of corn porridge in his hand and hurriedly asked.

I wanted to ask people if they had eaten, but when I thought that my pot was empty, and it was just some sparse corn porridge, I suddenly felt a little embarrassed.After all, even if she doesn't go out to visit very often, she has heard that Man Tun's family often eats meat.

Lin Baozhu saw the embarrassment on her face, but she didn't expose it, she just smiled and said, "Don't panic, Auntie, I'll leave right away, Man Tun is still at home with an empty stomach." He took out the remaining two meat pies from the basket, and said with a smile, "I baked a lot of pancakes today, and gave some to Mrs. Tian and the others. I thought about giving them away when the dog was growing up. Two. Besides, I would also like to ask sister-in-law Meiying if she is looking for a job now. It is cooking for everyone. Now there are three meals a day, and the meal at noon is more. The masonry class delivers meals twice. The wages are settled once a month, three hundred Wen."

The Meiying sister-in-law she was talking about was the leftover mother of a dog and the eldest daughter-in-law of Mrs. Lu's family.When Zhang Ji recruited people before, she happened to go back to her mother's house, so she missed it.When I came back, I could only help with lettering or paste tea paper.
