A small breakfast shop in the street market, supporting the family and making money

Nowadays, everyone in Beicheng County knows about and is able to grow silver sprouts.

Even though it was clearly the Tianxiang Tower that was the one that committed robbery and plunder, it is the Tianxiang Tower that everyone is praising now.

Tianxianglou is a typical example of a company that will make trouble if it can't get the food. Unfortunately, the authorities are in a clear position while the beneficiaries are the ones who are confused.

Fortunately, although the recipe for raw silver sprouts was forced to leak out, Xianju Pavilion managed to preserve the recipes for boiled fish and boiled pork slices.

Although silver sprouts are now everywhere on the streets and are no longer profitable, boiled fish and boiled pork slices are still popular.

It was after this incident that Leng Yan realized that when dealing with business matters, if one does not have sufficient financial support, one must be cautious and low-key.

After all, even Xianju Pavilion couldn't compete with Tianxiang Tower, so what could a little farm girl like her do?

A man is innocent unless he is in possession of a treasure. This has always been an eternal truth.

So she has been thinking about how to make a lot of money quietly without attracting attention.

But after much thought, he couldn't find a suitable job, and now he heard about this river shipping terminal, which might be a good opportunity. At least Tianxianglou won't be so greedy.

After thinking it through, she put the wild vegetables she had dug into the basket, packed up, and called her brother, younger brothers and sisters to go down the mountain and go home.

When they got home, Grandpa Leng was using a hoe to till the vegetable patch in his backyard, preparing to plant vegetables in the next few days.

Her father Lengxun's leg has almost recovered and he can take a few steps with the help of a crutch. Now he is sitting in the sun, weaving baskets in the sun.

Seeing this, the little twins came forward and pestered each other, wanting to go to the river dock to see the big ships. Leng Xun had an injured leg and couldn't go. Old Man Leng couldn't bear it and agreed to take them there tomorrow.

Now the lovely little twins were jumping and dancing. Leng Cang and Leng Yan had not expected it to be so easy and they were very happy.

The little twins were happy and winked at them as if to take credit.

That stinky look is so cute and funny.

Leng Yan had no choice but to turn around and move a few small stools, and called them over to pick and wash the wild vegetables they had just dug, so that they could use them for lunch later.

The wild vegetables they dug included shepherd's purse, wild onions, wild garlic sprouts, ferns and so on.

There were many kinds of wild vegetables and in large quantities. Fortunately, there were many of them, so we chatted and laughed together and talked about family matters. It didn't take long before they sorted and cleaned them one by one.

Seeing that it was almost noon, Leng Yan stood on a small stool and started to prepare food.

Leng He was helping from the side and asked curiously.

"Why haven't mom and my uncle and aunt come back yet? They should be back by now."

"Don't worry. Mother and my sister-in-law don't come to the city often. It's possible that they can go there for a while since they finally make the trip this time."

While explaining, Leng Yan calmly asked Leng Qi, who was lighting the fire, to add more firewood.

I saw her blanch the bracken skillfully, then take it out and soak it in cold water, then she chopped the wild onion, beat the eggs to season it, and then fry it in a pan. Then a plate of fragrant scrambled eggs with wild vegetables was ready.

Afterwards, stir-fried bacon with wild garlic sprouts, cold-mixed fern, and shepherd's purse pancakes and egg drop soup were served one by one, filling the room with the fragrance, making people drool.

"It smells so good, so different from the wild vegetables I usually cook!"

"Yes, yes, these bitter wild vegetables are so fragrant and delicious when cooked by my sister!"

Leng Qi and Leng He smelled the aroma of the vegetables and felt that they were different in every way. They were obviously the same wild vegetables, but they tasted slightly astringent and bland before, but now they were fragrant and pleasant, and particularly appetizing.

They had just finished cooking in the kitchen when the dog Dahuang outside the yard suddenly wagged its tail, barked twice, and came out to greet them.

"Oh, I bought a lot of things this time. My legs are sore from walking."

It turned out that Zhang Cuiniang and others had returned from the city.

Seeing this, Leng Yan and others immediately went out to help carry the things and the baskets.

"Ah, there are chicks and ducklings!"

Leng Qi exclaimed and looked at the dozen or so furry chicks in the basket, and simply couldn't let go.

Zhang Cui Niang drank a cup of warm water and recovered her breath before she said, "Well, not only are there chicks and ducklings, but there are also six geese."

As she spoke, she handed over another basket. Sure enough, the six goslings in it were much larger than the chickens and ducks, and the difference could be seen at a glance.

"You don't know, it took a lot of effort to buy these."

The brother and sister Leng Huai and Leng Su, who were standing by, gave a vivid and detailed explanation.

From what to buy to how to bargain, the family listened and ate at the same time. It was a record of market life that was very vivid for the listeners.

After dinner, his father Leng Xun was busy weaving a few large baskets for raising chickens, ducks and geese.

The weather is still a bit cold now, so it’s better to keep the flowers in baskets and move them into the house at night to prevent them from freezing to death.

The vegetable patch in the backyard had been plowed, and Zhang Cuiniang was busy sowing the vegetable seeds she had just bought in the morning.

Seeing this, Leng Yan turned around and went back to the house. While no one was paying attention, she bought some pumpkin seeds, watermelon seeds, cucumber seeds, and sprouted potatoes and sweet potatoes from the mall as seeds.

She discovered earlier that in this era, apart from white melon (also known as winter melon), cantaloupe, and loofah, other melons are very rare or even non-existent.

There are no pumpkins, watermelons or cucumbers, at least not in Beicheng County.

Not to mention sweet potatoes and potatoes. If we could have such high-yield products, most villagers wouldn't have to suffer from hunger and cold.

So Leng Yan bought some seeds in the mall, not a lot, wrapped them in oil paper, and left the room.

"Mom, uncle and aunt, I have some seeds I bought in the city, so I'll plant some too."

"Okay, what vegetable seeds do you have? Don't plant too many. Let me take a look."

Zhang Cuiniang saw the bulging bag in her hand and thought it must be a lot.

"When did you buy it? If I knew you bought it, I would buy less."

Leng Yan heard this and only mumbled, "Last time, I don't remember it clearly."

"Hey, what kind of seed is this? Why have I never seen it before?"

Zhang Cuiniang opened her eyes wide and was amazed to see buds sprouting from the round ball.

Upon hearing this, everyone came over to take a look and said they had never seen it before.

Seeing this, Leng Yan pretended to recall for a long time before answering.

“The red one seems to be called sweet potato, and the yellow one seems to be called potato or potato, I can’t remember clearly.

I only vaguely remember that I bought these seeds from a merchant, and that merchant gave me a few as a gift."

As she spoke, she opened the small oil paper bag inside the big oil paper bag. Everyone looked and saw that the small oil paper bag indeed contained the seeds they were familiar with.

Although I can't tell what kind of seeds they are, they look much more familiar than those lumpy balls.

"The people in the caravan also taught us how to grow sweet potatoes and potatoes."

As she spoke, she took a knife, cut the sweet potatoes and potatoes into five or six pieces according to their sprouts, and then buried them in the soil in rows.

Seeing how skillful she was, everyone came forward to help without any suspicion.
