Stepmother in charge: Making a fortune through farming and raising her children to fight back
Chapter 230 Dry Pot Potato Shrimp
The family left the carpentry shop happily.
Qin Li, who was carrying a pile of clothes, let out a long breath. Just when he was thinking about going home today, he heard Xiaonan say crisply: "Mom, it's time to buy a set of sheets and quilt covers for our house. Otherwise, it's cold now, and they often don't dry after washing, making it uncomfortable to sleep at night."
After hearing this, Qin Li really wanted to slip and sit on the ground.
It was really happy for the whole family to go shopping together.
But…can you please not! Shop around!?
At the critical moment, Yun Zhenzhen realized that it was not suitable for the boys to go shopping for a long time and rescued him.
"We can buy the remaining small things next time we go to town. After buying some food, it's time to go home. It's almost time for lunch."
The supplies in Liuye Town are still very abundant, and there are many more vegetables and foods than in the village.
Yun Zhenzhen was very happy and bought two stacks of tender tofu that they couldn't have at home.
She even saw the prawns she had bought by chance last time at the seafood market. They were really good stuff, but because of the transportation cost, they were quite expensive.
Ordinary pork only costs seventeen or eighteen cents per pound, but the price of shrimp has risen to thirty cents.
But this could not stop Yun Zhenzhen's enthusiasm for buying shrimps. After all, it was something that could not be found easily. This was the only time she had come across such a large amount of shrimps in all the times she had come to the town. She bought seven or eight kilograms of shrimps in one go, making the shrimp seller so happy that he was grinning from ear to ear.
Big customer, big customer.
Yun Zhenzhen was generous, and the boss was also a very good person. After they paid the bill, he even gave Yun Zhenzhen a few more big river shrimps.
Now both parties are very satisfied.
"Let's go home!" Although they spent a lot of money today, they also gained a lot. Yun Zhenzhen was so happy that even her eyebrows were raised.
Just at this time, Qin Li drove the ox cart over. When he was halfway there, he couldn't hold on any longer and went straight to the place where the ox cart was placed.
The whole family sat neatly on the ox cart.
Xiaonan and Awen were placed in the middle, their little mouths smacking non-stop as they ate the pastries they bought today.
Qin Li was driving the car, and Yun Zhenzhen was sitting next to him, chatting with him casually.
When we meet people from the same village on the road, we will greet each other. Looking at the full ox cart, they will not be tactless and ask for a ride.
Qin Li drove the car seriously, looking at the family behind him from time to time. Yun Zhenzhen was humming softly. It was a new and strange tune that no one had heard before, but it was full of gentleness and calmness, making people reluctant to interrupt.
There is a maternal glow on her fair little face and a gentle smile in her eyes, which makes people unable to help but be intoxicated at first sight.
Qin Li felt a little warmed in his heart. This moment was enough for him to cherish for the rest of his life. That was enough.
When the ox cart passed by the school, Yun Zhenzhen smiled and patted Awen: "Hurry up and go to class. It's time for you to study now."
In recent days, Master Yan has been giving Awen individual intensive training. Every day when others are studying, he is studying, and when others go home to rest, he is still studying.
Ah Wen jumped out of the car nimbly and greeted everyone skillfully: "Goodbye Mom, Goodbye Xiao Nan, Goodbye Big Brother..."
"Okay, go home early after school." Yun Zhenzhen smiled and nodded.
Qin Li sat at the front, his mouth dry and he also said: "Come back early in the evening, there are delicious things at home."
After strolling around the town for the whole morning today, after returning home, they sat down to rest for a while before Yun Zhenzhen started picking up a bag of large prawns weighing seven or eight pounds.
First wash the shrimp several times with clean water, then cut the shrimp back with a knife and remove the shrimp thread first, which will also help to absorb the flavor later.
Add a little old rice wine and salt and set aside to marinate for a while.
Xiao Nan, wearing new clothes, came to her and posed for a while while talking happily: "Mom, you see, I have been eating the delicious food you made recently. I have gained weight and the fat on my belly is twice as thick."
"It's great to have some fat on your belly. It's a symbol of good fortune." Yun Zhenzhen touched her lovingly.
Xiaonan ran out happily.
Yun Zhenzhen continued to prepare the food, cutting the peeled potatoes into strips. Qin Li, who was preparing to light the fire, was immediately attracted to her attention.
"Mom, what are we going to eat tonight?"
"Look, let me show you my skills. I'm going to make dry pot potato shrimp." Yun Zhenzhen said with a smile, "It just so happens that there are some old potatoes in the cellar that we can't finish. I'll give you a different flavor. I guarantee you'll love it once you try it."
Qin Li nodded without saying anything, with a hint of expectation in his eyes.
He has been away from home recently, and each time he is away for four or five days, what he misses most is the meal cooked by his mother every time he is on the road.
After getting used to eating at home, the food prepared in restaurants when going out is simply tasteless.
Yun Zhenzhen handed the task of cutting potatoes to Xu Ling'er who was waiting on the side. Although her potato shreds were not good-looking, potato strips were her specialty.
She walked to the side, put the marinated prawns into the pan and fried them until golden brown, then took them out and chopped a handful of minced garlic, put oil into the pan again and stir-fried them. On the other side, she put the chopped potatoes into the pan and fried them for later use.
Finally, combine the two and stir-fry in minced garlic.
This dish is not difficult to make, but it takes a long time to prepare the prawns.
After making another dish of Mapo Tofu, you can prepare the main course.
Yun Zhenzhen quickly cleaned the pot and added water, then threw a handful of Aunt Zhao's homemade noodles into the pot and cooked a pot of fragrant and filling hand-rolled noodles.
At noon, everyone enjoyed the leftover pork ribs and radish soup from yesterday and a large bowl of dry-pot potatoes and shrimps with relish.
Not only did the children exclaim that it was delicious, even Xu Ling'er couldn't stop eating and was busy devouring it.
Fortunately, Yun Zhenzhen had foresight and bought seven or eight kilograms of large prawns at once, which was definitely enough for a full meal.
The meal was coming to an end. Everyone wiped their mouths with satisfaction and prepared to clean the shrimp shells on the table. The meal was delicious, but it felt like something was missing.
correct.
Missing cloud view.
After spending several months together, the children had already begun to treat their older cousin as a member of their family. Moreover, Yun Jing also taught them their lessons, so a deep friendship had already been formed.
The child looked at Yun Zhenzhen pitifully.
She smiled helplessly and said, "Is your mother the kind of person who eats alone? I didn't finish my shopping this morning, so I'm going to town and check on how your eldest cousin is doing."
"Great!"
When cooking at noon, Yun Zhenzhen reserved a full bowl of spicy prawns in a small iron box, and paired it with the staple food. Fearing that it would not be enough, she also boiled several eggs, which can be kept for a long time when it is cold, and let the child eat two a day.
Worried that he would be cold in the school, Yun Zhenzhen gathered two blankets and a complete set of sweaters and trousers to take with him.
It’s true. Now that I’m a mother, I not only have to worry about my son and daughter, but also about my nephew.
I'm so busy, I'm so busy.
