The splendid life of a small peasant girl

Chapter 98 Preserved Eggs
There are plenty of diced meat in the preserved egg and lean meat porridge. In addition, there are preserved eggs and green vegetables. It looks good in color and smells delicious, so many customers ordered this, and the result was as soon as they ate it. shocked.For several days, someone always asked, "Boss, what is the dark stuff in your porridge?"

"This is a preserved egg." Yao Yu explained, taking out the preserved egg, "This is it."

Wang Fengzhen and the others were also very surprised when they saw preserved eggs for the first time, and finally realized that they were made of duck eggs. They immediately fell in love with Yao Yu's admiration, and said involuntarily, "Sister, I didn't expect you to collect duck eggs. It's really useful."

"How is this done?" The guest wondered what kind of egg this preserved egg is made of.

"It's made of duck eggs." Yao Yu only explained what the preserved eggs are made of, not how to make them.

The man ate a bowl of porridge, and became very interested in the preserved eggs inside. Seeing that Yao Yu didn't say how to do it and didn't care, he asked, "Is this sold separately?"

"Sold separately, five coins each." Yao Yu said.

The man froze for a moment, "Isn't a duck egg a piece of paper?"

"Yes, but it takes two months to turn duck eggs into preserved eggs." Yao Yu said, it does take two months, but this time is waiting for duck eggs to turn into preserved eggs.

Wang Fengzhen and the others didn't expect it would take so long to make preserved eggs, and they were a little dazed for a while, but Aunt Wu asked, "It takes so long?"

"Well, otherwise, why did I only release preserved eggs this year?" Yao Yu asked with a smile.

"Well, it's been two months since my sister started harvesting duck eggs," Wang Fengzhen said.

When the man heard this, he hurriedly said, "I want a preserved egg." Although Wuwen can buy two duck eggs, the method is complicated, and it is acceptable to buy a preserved egg made of a duck egg with Wuwen.

Yao Yu immediately peeled the preserved egg, put it on a plate and handed it to the guest. After taking a bite, the guest felt the fragrance and said, "It's delicious." After two bites, one preserved egg was eaten.

"Is there a purchase limit?" Everyone who came to Yao Yu's store knew that there was always a strange rule here, starting from high-quality wine, and from time to time, the purchase of new things was limited to one bowl.

"There is no purchase limit." Yao Yu collected a lot of preserved eggs, and if the purchase was restricted, they would be sold out.

"I want ten." The guest said directly.

"Are you taking it away?" Yao Yu asked.

"Can you take it away?" The guest was a little puzzled.

Yao Yu didn't understand why the guest thought that the preserved egg could not be taken away, so she patiently explained, "Of course it can be taken away, and this preserved egg can be stored very well. It can be stored in a cool place for three months."

"Then I want twenty, take them away." The guest took out one hundred Wen and handed it to Yao Yu.

Yao Yu packed 21 of them very well, "You can come again if it's delicious."

Seeing Yao Yu pretending to be one more, the guests were even more delighted.

After the opening of the new year, shopkeeper Nie of Manchuan Inn came over to buy soybean paste, and at the same time paid off the rent of Yao Yu's shop for the second half of last year and the rent for the next three years, which was a bit embarrassing. "I'm really sorry to pay the rent after finishing my work last year."

In fact, not to mention shopkeeper Nie, even Yao Yu himself has forgotten that the monthly rent of the store is two taels of silver, and after three years, it can't keep up with the income of selling breakfast for a few days in Jiangzhou. "What did shopkeeper Nie say? After working together for so long, can you still not trust Shopkeeper Nie?"

After listening to Yao Yu's words, shopkeeper Nie felt extremely at ease.

The villagers of Shuangshui Village saw that Yao Yu had been collecting duck eggs, and the price was the same as that in the town, so they stopped sending them to the town. They saved duck eggs and went straight to Yao Yu's place.

"Xie's family, do you still collect duck feathers this year?" A villager asked by the way when selling duck eggs. The duck feathers were originally worthless, but after a little processing, they were even more expensive than duck eggs.

Yao Yu replied, "We'll still charge this year. The price is the same as last year. Washed and sun-dried duck feathers cost fifteen yuan a catty. If you remove the hard rod in the middle, it costs twenty yuan a catty."

The villagers also understood the meaning of Yao Yu's words, "Have you harvested this year, but not next year?"

Yao Yu said, "I'm not sure if I'll accept it next year." She said this because she wanted to tell the people in advance that this year's down jackets will definitely continue to be made. As for next year, it depends on the effect of this year's sales. If it is good If so, I will definitely continue to charge.

The villagers thought about it too. The duck feathers are not very effective in the first place, and it is considered a sky-high price to sell for twenty cents a catty. They will make more preparations when they go back this year.The preserved eggs in the shop sold quickly, and many people chose to buy dozens of them to take home. Fortunately, the villagers continued to send preserved eggs to Yao Yu's house, otherwise the supply would have been in short supply.

The county exam is in February. Nuoer has been studying hard since the Chinese New Year, and attaches great importance to this exam. Even if Mr. Ji, Xie Zhimo and Yao Yu all said that this trip is just to experience the experience, not necessarily cashew nuts, Nuoer The son is also very serious, and Yao Yu's heart aches just looking at it.

And the relationship between Yao Chang and Sister Liu seems to have taken a big step forward. Yao Chang still perseveres in sending flowers and various gifts to Sister Liu. If he gets off work early occasionally, he will go to the real clothes shop to accompany Sister Liu.

Yao Yu's life is very regular. He goes to Jiangzhou every day to sell breakfast, and when he comes back, he starts brewing high-quality wine, and then collects duck eggs and duck feathers. The duck eggs harvested are immediately made into preserved eggs, and the duck feathers are stored in the house. Waiting for Sister Liu to finish the clothes and use them.

In a blink of an eye, it was time for the county examination. Yao Yu took a day off and got up early in the morning to prepare breakfast for Nuoer. Xie Zhimo also didn't go to the martial arts gym. Yao Chang also planned to ask for leave, but Yao Yu stopped him. There are many people, Nuo'er might still be nervous, you can go to work with peace of mind, and Zhimo and I can go."

Yao Chang thought so, so he didn't ask for leave, and Mr. Ji was waiting at home.

"Are we going by bullock cart?" Nuo'er asked.

Xie Zhimo put on Nuoer's coat, "Take the carriage." Even though it is March, it is still a bit cold outside, besides, the speed of the carriage is much faster than that of an ox cart.

Seeing that everything was ready, Yao Yu asked, "Have you got everything ready for Nuoer's exam?"

Nuo'er patted the schoolbag that Yao Yu sewed for her, "It's all here, ready."

"Okay, let's go."

Xie Zhimo rode a carriage to Hehua Town. There were already a lot of candidates in front of the science test shed, all of whom were holding test baskets. Nuoer took out her test admission ticket, waved to Xie Zhimo and Yao Yu, and then stood in the middle of the line .After Souzi checked Nuoer's whole body, Nuoer finally entered the examination room.

Yao Yu's nervous heart finally eased a little, standing outside the examination room made Yao Yu feel as if his child was going to take the college entrance examination.There is only one test a day, and the first test that Nuoer took was the main one. Mr. Ji said that the admission is very loose, as long as the writing is fluent, so the possibility of Nuoer's admission is very high.

Xie Zhimo was much calmer, "Do you want to go around?"

Yao Yu couldn't care less about wandering around, her eyes were fixed on the examination room, waiting for when Nuo'er would come out.

Seeing this, Xie Zhimo had no choice but to wait in the carriage. Like Yao Yu and Xie Zhimo, there were not a few people waiting outside the door, but Xie Zhimo was the only one leading the carriage, so everyone kept looking over, and finally the two had to Run and sit in the carriage.

The time seemed to be a bit long, and finally, someone outside the examination room yelled, "Come out."

Yao Yu and Xie Zhimo rushed out of the carriage, and candidates came out one after another. After several waves, they saw Nuoer walking in from inside.

Xie Zhimo hurried forward to hold Nuo'er, originally he wanted to ask Nuo'er how the exam was, but Yu'er confessed that after the child came out, he could not ask him how the exam was, so Xie Zhimo didn't say anything.

After Nuo'er got into the car, Yao Yu asked, "What do you want to eat later?"

Nuoer smiled all over her face, "It's all fine."

After the carriage drove out of Hehua Town, Nuo'er asked curiously, "Mother, why didn't you ask me how I did in the exam?"

Yao Yu smiled and explained, "It's natural to be happy if you do well in the exam, and it's okay to do poorly in the exam. Anyway, you are our Nuoer. What we care about is not how you do in the exam, as long as you are safe and healthy."

Nuo'er didn't expect such a reason, but Yao Yu and Xie Zhimo didn't put too much pressure on him all the time, "Actually, I feel okay."

"That would be even better, but no matter how you do in the exam, don't think about it after the exam." Yao Yu said.

Nuoer nodded, "Remember it." In Nuoer's heart, Yao Yu's words always had her reasons.

When they got home, Mr. Ji asked Nuoer what the subject of the exam was. Nuoer followed Mr. Ji into the room to discuss it, and Yao Yu hurriedly prepared dinner.

There are a total of five exams in this county exam. The results of the first round will come out in three days. If you fail the first round, you will not be able to enter the second exam. try.

Three days later, Yao Yu was planning to go to Hehua Town to see the results together, but Xie Zhimo refused to let Yao Yu go. The last time Yao Yu was so nervous, how can he do it after five games in a row?So, early in the morning, Xie Zhimo and his son went to Hehua Town to check their grades, and Yao Yu went to the Jiangzhou store. Although the store was very busy, Yao Yu couldn't help being a little worried. Decided to close the shop early and return to the village.

Aunt Wu, Wang Fengzhen, and Luo Shi were also infected by Yao Yu's nervousness. They didn't say a word along the way. The more they got to Shuangshui Village, the more nervous Yao Yu became.Fortunately, after arriving home, Xie Zhimo and Nuo'er had already returned.
