Nowadays, running small private businesses is very popular. The old lady doesn't think that doing this business is not serious. On the contrary, she is particularly looking forward to Tian Tian being able to sell these things so that she can just buy them when she wants to eat them.
It saves Tian Tian from having to make it at home, and the old lady is too embarrassed to come over and ask Tian Tian for it. It would be much more convenient if she could buy it, and the old lady is not short of money, so she can just come over and buy some when she wants to eat it.
Tian Tian saw the expectation in the old lady's eyes. She smiled helplessly and shook her head.
"I'm sorry, Auntie. We're just making these for ourselves and not selling them out. If you like them, I have some seasoning packets here. Take them. Just taste what you want and add it in. Then pour a little soy sauce and some salt. It's very simple." Tian Tian said with a smile.
They were not particularly short of money, and each of them had a stable and formal job, and they did not plan to make money by selling braised food. Although doing business now was quite profitable, they did not see how tired others were, getting up early and going to bed late every day, and they did not need to suffer that.
The old lady was a little disappointed when she heard what Tian Tian said, but she was also a little happy when she heard that Tian Tian sent her more marinade. "I'm so sorry."
She thought that the recipe that could make something so fragrant must be the one passed down from Tian Tian's family. But Tian Tian now said so frankly that she wanted to give them the recipe, which surprised the old lady. She also had some good feelings towards Tian Tian.
"Don't worry, I will never tell anyone about this recipe. I will definitely keep it safe for you." The old lady assured Tian Tian.
Their family is not short of money. She and her husband both have pensions, and they have not spent much of the salary they earned in previous years. The money they have now is more than enough for them to spend, and the old lady has no desire to make money.
Tian Tian didn't react at first. What did the old lady mean by that? When she realized what was going on, she felt a little amused. If she really had this recipe for stewed food at home, it would be great. At least she wouldn't have to dig in the fields to make a living.
But Tian Tian didn't explain anything. He would have to say a lot later, and he thought it would be troublesome.
After the old lady got the braised food, she waited for Tian Tian to take out the braised food package for her, and happily took the small plate of vegetarian dishes home. Not long after, she brought the washed plate back, held Tian Tian's hand and praised her for a long time, making Tian Tian feel a little embarrassed.
Tian Tian heaved a sigh of relief after sending the old lady away. She went into the kitchen and put the plate in the cupboard.
Seeing Gu Zhao standing in front of the stove and looking at the pot, he immediately came over with great interest, "When can we eat?"
Tian Tian is now a little impatient.
"The vegetarian dishes will be ready soon, but the meat dishes will take a little longer. If you're in a hurry, use a pressure cooker."
Tian Tian was conflicted after hearing this. She wanted to eat pig's trotters, chicken feet and the like as soon as possible, but she always felt that they would not taste as good if they were put in a pressure cooker as if they were slowly stewed.
Then I thought of the two dishes of vegetarian food in the refrigerator and decided I should be more patient. "Forget it, let's just wait until it's done."
Gu Zhao smiled and said, "Then go get a dish from the refrigerator and eat outside. I'll watch the pot here. I'll take them out and put them in the stew pot later."
Now the chicken wings, chicken legs, chicken feet, pig's trotters and pig's ears are all being blanched. They can only be put into the braising pot after they are finished blanching.
Tian Tian shook her head. "I'm here with you. I want to eat braised food and watch TV with you."
Gu Zhao was somewhat happy after hearing this. "I'll be there soon, wait a moment."
After Gu Zhao finished blanching the meat in water, he immediately took it out of the pot.
Then the two of them happily went to the refrigerator and took out two plates of braised dishes. Each of them held a plate and sat on the sofa to watch TV.
"It tastes a bit salty. It would be better if it were a little lighter." Tian Tian said.
After eating two bites, she wanted to drink water.
Gu Zhao nodded after listening to it. He also felt that it was a little bit true. "Then let's put a little less soy sauce next time."
The two of them happily spent the entire afternoon on the sofa. The coffee table was covered with the remnants of their food, such as peanut shells, melon seed shells, various candy wrappers, and orange peels. There were also a few apple cores on the oil paper bag next to them. When the two men realized that it was time to pick up An An, they were both so full that they couldn't stand it anymore.
The two of them sat on the sofa with their bellies full and smiled helplessly. "Who on earth would still be so full from eating snacks at such an age?"
The two men saw that it was getting late, but they still couldn't hold on any longer, so they sat on the sofa and relaxed for a while.
When they no longer felt so uncomfortable, the two of them packed up and went to Ge Huiyun's house to pick up An An.
Before leaving, Gu Zhao went to the kitchen and took out all the stewed food from the pot, drained the water, and put it in the refrigerator. The food was cooked after stewing for an entire afternoon. They took a few bites out of it, but it was still a little tasteless, so they soaked it in the pot for a while, and also packed some for his parents.
Along the way they were still worried whether An An would be angry.
Fortunately, An An is a very carefree girl and didn’t realize that her parents were late to pick them up.
The two of them breathed a sigh of relief and held An An and played with him for a while.
Although An An didn't realize that her parents were late, she was still very attached to them as she hadn't seen them for the whole day.
Watching the two of them playing with the children, Ge Huiyun said, "Have you two eaten? If not, I'll make something for you. There just happens to be a lot of food left at home. I'll heat it up for you."
Gu Zhao and the others arrived a little late, as they had already eaten.
Gu Zhao and Tian Tian shook their heads quickly. They had already eaten enough at home and couldn't eat anything now. After playing with An An at home for a while, they saw that it was getting late outside and it was already dark. If they didn't leave now, they would have to go home very late. So they thought about going home quickly before it was completely dark.
Ge Huiyun also knew Gu Zhao, and since they had to go to work tomorrow, she didn't want to keep them any longer.
