Dressed as a top-notch girl, leading the whole village to become rich
Chapter 13 White Porridge
Ye Wan stretched her head again and saw a pot of bubbling white porridge, and nodded quickly to show her agreement.
She was pecking at rice like a chicken, afraid that others would not notice if she was too slow. Although she did not speak, her eyes were full of expectation and accusation, and she was very anxious.
Ye Guo looked at it with amusement and sadness: "The market will be open in a few days. When the time comes, we can sell the pearls and buy rice again."
"Pearl?" Ye Wan was confused.
Ye Guo could only briefly explain what happened in the afternoon.
But the big and the small just looked at her and still refused to give in.
Ye Guo sighed, "Look, I fell this time and the injury is just bleeding, but it's like walking through the gates of hell, right? And second brother, you haven't had a good meal for so long since you were injured?"
"Besides, our family eats coarse grains and wild vegetables every day for the two of us. If we continue like this, our health will collapse sooner or later. We can't save on food by simply saving money."
Old Mrs. Ye looked conflicted and guilty, but she still felt that she had to consider the long-term.
Ye Wan was still young after all, and she was obviously wavering in her heart. After thinking for a while, she took out a large bowl from the cupboard and said, "It's already cooked, and there's no other way. Why don't I give it half and put it in a hanging basket in well water to cool it down, and eat it tomorrow."
Old Lady Ye's eyes lit up when she heard this, and she nodded in agreement. As if afraid that Ye Guo would interfere again, the two of them, one big and one small, did what they said, and even before the porridge cooled down, they directly hoisted it into the well.
Ye Guo sighed, but felt helpless and could only take over the task of distributing the porridge.
The wooden spoon used to scoop the porridge was not big, about the size of a modern small bowl for eating, about half a bowl.
She took out the clay pot again, fried ginger, garlic and chili in oil, put the snails and river clams in and stir-fried them, using the soy sauce and vinegar, and then added the shredded cucumber.
A bowl of fried snail meat is ready.
This time, Ye Guo chose to serve the lotus root tips cold, and also made a bowl of wild vegetable egg drop soup.
The egg is a little small. It was laid by a chicken borrowed from the village head. Old Mrs. Ye originally planned to give it to her to eat tomorrow morning.
Ye Guo only thought for a second, and then decided to share the joys and sorrows with everyone.
When the Ye family came back, they looked at the steaming and thick white porridge and were afraid to pick up their chopsticks.
This is white porridge, snail meat, and you can also see frangipani in the wild vegetable soup.
This is the best meal on the table since Ye Laoer was injured.
Because Ye Guo said that staying in the room all day was not conducive to recovery, Ye Lao Er was carried to sit at the dining table early today.
Everyone wanted to eat but didn't dare to pick up their chopsticks. Old Lady Ye saw this and urged them, "Eat, there's only one bowl. The rest can be left as usual."
Ye Xiaolu looked at the porridge in the bowl, then glanced at Ye Guo, "Aunt, did you pick up money somewhere today?"
"Yes!" Ye Guo felt that Ye Lu, his nephew, had said exactly what he wanted. "Everyone, after we finish eating, I have something to announce."
Her determined and confident look finally gave the Ye family confidence.
Especially the aroma of white rice porridge, which goes straight into the nose and is really unbearable.
But everyone ate it with great care and were reluctant to eat it too fast.
While Ye Mu was eating, he did not forget to share with Ye Guo, "Aunt, the rice porridge is so delicious. Last time when grandma made porridge for you, I wanted to secretly eat a bite, but you were sick, and eating it would help you get better faster."
The reluctant look on his face was as if the bowl contained not plain porridge but delicacies from land and sea.
Ye Guo didn't know there was such a thing, but when she first entered the book, she drank plain porridge for several days in a row.
At that time, I thought the Ye family's conditions were pretty good, but when I actually ate with everyone else, I realized what a wake-up call it was.
Ye Guo's eyes felt a little sore, so he raised his hand to press them, and smiled at Ye Mu, "Thank you, Xiao Mu. My aunt is recovering well now."
We will make sure everyone eats better in the future.
Ye Guo just thought about this sentence in his mind and did not make any promise out loud.
Ye Guo is still a newcomer now and is not very clear about the general environment of this era.
As someone who has received nine years of compulsory education, she knows very well that for working people at the bottom of society, things like human rights are fatal in today's era.
Her mood visibly dropped, and then she remembered that there was a heroine with a strong heroine character setting, and the way she looked at Ye Lu and Ye Mu suddenly changed.
"Aunt, this snail meat is so delicious. I'll go get some more tomorrow." Ye Mu said as he ate. A piece of snail meat accidentally fell on the table, but he picked it up without hesitation and continued to eat.
Old Mrs. Ye also sighed a little: "It's really good. I was worried before that it wouldn't taste clean, but Xiaoguo has a way. It can be boiled to pick out the flesh, or fried. It's hard to imagine it not being delicious."
There was not much snail meat and clam meat, so most adults just tasted it and started picking up cucumber shreds so that the children could eat more.
Ye Lao Er was no exception and reminded them, "When you go tomorrow, remember to bring back more lotus pods. I have nothing to do all day long anyway."
At this point, Ye Guo slapped his thigh and said, "I always remember forgetting something. It turns out that I forgot to add lotus rice to the porridge. Lotus rice is a perfect match for porridge."
Everyone was startled by her sudden surprise, but they felt relieved after hearing her.
Ye Wan has a typical oval face and a gentle personality. She smiled and said, "Don't worry, aunt. Half of the porridge is still chilled in the well."
After saying that, he did not forget to share with everyone Ye Guo’s great achievements today and the pearls he accidentally discovered.
I originally wanted to seriously announce Pearl’s Ye Guo… As long as you are happy.
But when they treated the pearls as treasures and even forbade Xiaomu and Xiaolu to touch them, Ye Guo was unhappy.
"Pearls are real, and they are not something that will break if touched. They are young and have never seen good things, so we should let them see and touch them as much as they want."
"Because I've seen good things, I won't be easily deceived."
Ye Guo's inspirational words just come out of his mouth.
But the Ye family heard it and agreed with it deeply.
After dinner, no one cleaned up the table immediately, but sat together to discuss what to do with the pearls.
Of course it has to be sold, but there are some differences of opinion on how much and where to sell.
Ye Guo insisted on keeping two, one for Old Lady Ye to make a hairpin and the other for Ye Wan as a dowry.
She also felt that there was no need to sell it in a jewelry store in the county town, and it would be more appropriate to sell it in a reputable medical clinic.
The main reason is that there is only one jewelry store in the county, which is a serious business. They don't have any acquaintances there. If the price is not right, it will be difficult to find a buyer. It is also easy for them to be targeted by second-rate people and their money will be exposed.
Pearls can also be used as medicine. The prices at a reputable clinic may not be that high, but they are reliable, and people come and go to seek medical treatment, so safety comes first.
The Ye family still felt that they should sell all of them, so they went to the clinic to sell them according to Ye Guo's analysis.
Objection? That is impossible.
From Old Man Ye to Ye Mu, everyone gave their all and praised her highly.
Surrounded by the love of his family again, Ye Guo fell asleep smoothly.
