Stepmother in charge: Making a fortune through farming and raising her children to fight back
Chapter 205: Stocking up
The aunts were responsible for preparing chopped green onions, minced garlic and noodle sauce, and then making some lotus leaf cakes. Yun Zhenzhen taught them how to make them. After learning it once, they knew how to make them. Then they could wrap them with rabbit meat and eat them together. Just thinking about the taste was delicious.
County Magistrate Lu brought a lot of people with him. In addition to Ada and Aer, Asan and Asi also came this time, as well as his cousin. The food they brought was also very rich, especially seafood that was not available in the town, which immediately made Yun Zhenzhen's eyes light up.
Before, the eldest brother only bought some prawns once when he happened to pass by. Since then, I have never seen any seafood seller since then. When I am craving for seafood, I can only eat some snails to satisfy my craving. They are nothing compared to the real seafood.
As expected of a city person, the things he brings are all fashionable.
There is still half a bucket of snails in the kitchen that I caught from the river the day before yesterday. I decided to fry them tonight.
The simple stove is placed in the spacious yard. The rabbit meat is spread out and skewered, and seasonings are sprinkled on it. When the wind blows, the whole yard is filled with fragrance, making people drool.
Also make a crispy roast duck, which is perfect for making spring rolls.
Bake over charcoal fire. Marinate the duck first, then pour boiling water on the surface, repeating this process several times until the duck skin shrinks and tightens, and pores appear.
Then apply a layer of syrup and soy sauce on the surface and bake it. When the skin is baked to a shiny and crispy golden color, the fragrance will spread completely.
Yun Zhenzhen also thoughtfully prepared some wine and peanuts next to the stove, and grilled them by the light of the torch.
Because there are many people at home today, including people of all ages, as the host, she divided the food into two categories.
In addition to the food for the elderly and children, which is soft, delicious and easy to digest, the rest is some relatively solid meat.
Cut the leftover meat at home into small pieces, put it on skewers, put it on the side of the grill, light it on the fire, sprinkle it with seasonings, and eat it when it is cooked.
After a while, the guards standing outside the yard carrying firewood began to breathe heavily, their eyes fixed on the grill.
They had never seen food cooked like this before, and it tasted so delicious.
With the seafood they brought, Yun Zhenzhen made a chicken feet and shrimp stew, and after it was done, she brought out a large bowl of it.
Because there were so many people coming today, only the elderly could sit down to eat, while the children and adults stood to pick up the food, which was quite a happy scene.
County Magistrate Lu sat in the main seat, while everyone else stood. No one cared, because the food in their mouths was simply... too delicious!
They didn't know how the seafood was cooked, but it was fresh, tender and crisp. It tasted spicy and delicious when they put it in their mouths with just one chopstick. Even the leftover soup mixed with rice could fill two large bowls. It was even more delicious than what they had eaten in the largest restaurant in Kyoto.
Considering that there were more men today, Yun Zhenzhen prepared a whole bucket of town rice, and everyone ate to their heart's content.
Old Mrs. Qin was a little restrained at first, after all, she was the county magistrate. But when she tasted the fresh rice and the delicious dishes on the table, she didn't feel like thinking too much and just remembered to eat like crazy.
I thought the chicken feet and spicy shrimp were delicious enough, but when the skewers and roasted rabbit were cooked, the group of people didn't even have time to talk and wanted to lick the skewers clean.
When Xiao Nan saw several adults fighting over a skewer of barbecue, he shook his head helplessly. They were really a bunch of adults who had never seen the world. This was just my mother's ordinary level.
After the roast duck was ready, Yun Zhenzhen took it off and divided it into two portions. She performed the duck slicing show for everyone on the spot. This is the most particular process of eating roast duck.
Although I have never been a shop owner in my previous life, with the help of the development of short videos and ordering roast duck every day during college, I can be considered an expert.
She sliced off the duck skin while it was still hot. The freshly baked duck skin was golden, crispy and delicious. Then came the duck meat, each slice had skin and meat, and was thin but not broken.
The whole duck is sliced into 108 pieces, neither too many nor too few. The remaining duck bones can be put in your mouth and gnawed. Even the inside is crispy, tender and fresh, with a unique flavor.
Pick up a piece of duck meat and put it on the lotus leaf pancake, then add a few cucumber and green onion slices, dip it in the secret sauce, wrap it up and take a bite. Everyone squinted their eyes with happiness.
What a delicious delicacy! I thought the barbecue shrimp pot I had today was already delicious, but I didn’t expect that I could eat such delicious food in the end.
"Aunt Yun, the food you cook is so delicious! Can I stay here every day from now on? I swear, I will study hard!"
Wang Ze's mouth was full of food, and his speech was unclear. He wished he could swallow his tongue. He was always a modest gentleman, but now he completely ignored the etiquette of dining.
With delicious food in front of you, why bother about so many things? Just enjoy the meal.
Wang Ze even felt a little sad while eating. What would he do if he couldn't eat when he went to Beijing to take the imperial examination?
or……
Then he immediately shook his head. If his father knew that he had such an idea, he would beat himself to death.
"The remaining duck bones are also delicious."
Ah Da was gnawing on a bone enthusiastically. Fortunately, he was smart today. When he heard that the adults were coming to Madam Yun's house, he quickly pulled Ah Er to follow them. Otherwise, they would have missed so many delicious foods!
The Lu Yunfeng brothers ate silently at the table. Although they ate very happily and there were some oil stains on the corners of their mouths, they still retained a trace of etiquette.
After the group of people had eaten and drunk their fill, it was almost dark. The sun was setting, and the golden sunset glow cast a warm yellow hue on the yard.
As Lu Yunfeng and his group were about to leave, he looked at Yun Zhenzhen with a smile and said, "Thank you, Madam Yun, for your hospitality today. If you have the chance in the future, please come to the county town and look for me so that I can also show my hospitality."
"Okay, then I'd like to thank the county magistrate first." Yun Zhenzhen said with a smile.
At night, the eldest brother pushed open the gate under the cover of darkness. This trip was a day faster than the previous one, and behind him were several large ox carts full of wool.
It just so happened that I cooked a lot tonight and there was quite a bit left, so I heated it up and had a meal. Taking advantage of this opportunity, Qin Li took off his hoodie and went to the backyard to take a shower.
It took four or five days to go back and forth, and I didn't have time to take a shower on the way, so I always felt like I had a smell on my body.
After dinner, he told Yun Zhenzhen about what he had seen and heard along the way, including the details about the dim sum shop that Manager Xu had asked about before.
When the time comes, I will discuss with Manager Xu how to provide the future transportation and remuneration if we want to do this business.
When it comes to business, some things need to be made clear in advance. After being out there for so long, his business has become much more mature and he has seen the dark side of human nature.
Even though Da Hu and Er Zhu, who were following him to Zang County, were his good brothers since childhood, he still had to explain clearly the wages and risks of the round trip.
They had made several trips these days, and the backyard was filled with wool. Yun Zhenzhen continued to give instructions.
"Next time you go there, you still need to collect a lot of wool. Take as much as you can. Don't rush back. You can go to the nearby farmers and visit them."
Qin Li asked with some confusion: "Why? I can just make two more trips to move it back. There's no need to transport so much at once."
Yun Zhenzhen patiently explained, "Right now, we're the only ones reselling wool, and the price is relatively cheap. But it won't be long before others imitate us, and then the cost price of wool will definitely go up significantly."
"The more we buy before others grab the wool, the better the deal."
Qin Li scratched his head and nodded.
My mother is really smart. Why didn’t he think of this?
