Chapter 50 Delicious! It’s really delicious!
It was just that many of her sisters-in-law excluded her, and these people were all Wang's best friends.
In his words, he said that Lin's daughter-in-law from the fourth room was not respectful to the eldest sister-in-law from the first room, and it was not good to show off in front of her mother-in-law...
Lin Shiqi pretended not to understand and just said that respecting her parents-in-law was her duty and sharing their worries was her responsibility as a daughter-in-law.
After a few days, Lin Shiqi's bean sprouts grew out and were ready to be eaten.
On this day, the third and fourth rooms were responsible for cooking.
Lin Shiqi took out the bean sprouts she had grown and went to the kitchen as if she was presenting a treasure.
Said to Liu, "Third sister-in-law, let's add another dish today, stir-fried bean sprouts."
Liu was greatly surprised. "What is this? How come I have never seen it before?"
Lin Shiqi chuckled, "These are called bean sprouts. Didn't I pick a lot of wild beans when I went to the mountains a few days ago? The sprouts grown from wild beans, my husband said, are delicious when cooked in a vegetable dish."
Liu was curious. "Really? Where did you hear that?"
Lin Shiqi spoke immediately, "My husband went to school, he listened to the teacher's teachings, he came back and told me, so I tried to do it."
Liu was envious, "That's great, my fourth brother is really smart and can learn anything."
He took another look at the tender bean sprouts.
"It looks delicious, but I've never eaten it before and I don't know how to cook it."
Lin Shiqi smiled and said, "If Third Sister-in-law doesn't know how to fry, let me try, and I will fry it randomly."
"Okay." Liu quickly took off her apron and handed it to Lin Shiqi.
Lin Shiqi got the right to cook.
She pretended to be clumsy at first, but later on, she became more and more skilled and could easily finish a large plate of stir-fried bean sprouts.
Liu was amazed.
Lin Shiqi picked one for her to taste. Normally, she would never taste the food privately as there was not much food to begin with. If the cook ate it secretly in the kitchen and was caught by Mrs. Zhou, she would yell and curse so that the whole village could hear it.
Today, I am really curious.
I really just tasted one.
"Hmm, it's really good, sweet, juicy, crispy, and chewy. It's delicious! It's really delicious!"
Lin Shiqi smiled sweetly, "As long as it tastes good."
When the meal started, Liu began to vigorously promote this dish of fried bean sprouts.
None of Lao Zhou’s family members have ever eaten it, but the bean sprouts are white and tender, and Lin Shiqi fried them with plenty of oil, so they look very appetizing.
Everyone's chopsticks first reached for the plate of bean sprouts.
Mrs. Zhou was the first to praise it.
"Yes, this tastes delicious. It has the fragrance of beans, but it is completely different from beans."
Others thought it was delicious too.
Erlang and Sanlang were the two teenage boys who were a bit protective of their food. After eating one mouthful, they were afraid that they would not be able to grab the food anymore, so they scooped up another big mouthful.
The bean sprouts were originally wrapped together, and these two big chopsticks scooped away half of them.
When others saw it, they were jealous.
Go again quickly...
In a few moments, Lin Shiqi's large plate of stir-fried bean sprouts was finished.
The first empty plate.
Mother Zhou laughed and cursed, "You are the reincarnations of starving ghosts. Your grandfather and I haven't even put down our chopsticks yet! It's gone!"
He then asked Lin Shiqi where the bean sprouts came from.
Lin Shiqi said that he made it himself, which made Mrs. Zhou very interested.
Asked several questions.
It was even more rare to find out that the beans were grown from wild beans that she had dug up from the mountains. It didn't cost her much, so she was even more surprised.
Lin Shiqi said, "Dad, Mom, growing bean sprouts doesn't cost much, but it takes time. I thought that there are not many edible vegetables in this season, so I want to grow more bean sprouts and sell them in town. We can sell them cheaper so that everyone can afford them and eat them. I can earn some pocket money to buy books for my husband. What do you think?"
The more Mrs. Zhou listened, the more interested she became.
"How much does it cost? How much silver should it sell for?"
Lin Shiqi smiled and said, "I don't know about these for now. I still have to go to the town to inquire about the prices. Anyway, my wild beans are all picked up from the mountains. It doesn't cost me much, but it takes some effort. I won't lose money no matter how much I sell. My parents think it's good and agree to let me do it. I will start to grow bean sprouts at night. It takes a long time, five or six days for them to grow this long..."
Mrs. Zhou strongly agreed, "I agree, why not? It's great to add more income to our family. My fourth son is very smart. He has only been in school for a few days and has found a good business in bean sprouts. If he can really make money, then my fourth son's tuition will not be lost at all."
Zhou Lang did nothing, but was praised again.
Wang asked excitedly, "How do bean sprouts grow? Fourth brother's wife, do you want our help?"
Mrs. Zhou saw that she had no good intentions and said, "If there is food for you, just eat it. Don't worry about things that you should worry about. It's useless to worry about things that are not your business."
Wang was defeated.
He curled his lips and stopped talking.
I snorted inwardly, isn’t this what the teacher said in school?
Her son is also studying in the school, and her son Dalang must know about it. If she really wants to make money, she can ask Dalang and tell him that she can do it too.
When the time comes, she will ask Dalang and then tell the recipe to her family.
Letting my mother's family earn money won't save the Zhou family a penny.
***
After seeking consent from Mrs. Zhou and others about selling bean sprouts, Lin Shiqi still wanted to know the villagers' reactions.
So, she picked up a few young girls who had been on good terms with her recently, and her sisters-in-law also gave her a pound of bean sprouts.
Let them take it back and cook it.
Then, they came back one by one to thank her and said that their family members praised the food.
Lin Shiqi felt relieved.
I started soaking bean sprouts that night.
Zhou Lang went to school after breakfast every morning and came back early in the afternoon in time for dinner.
Don't miss a meal.
Because he had to go to school, Old Man Zhou no longer took him to patrol the fields or hunt.
The reason does not delay his studies.
After dinner, Zhou Lang went back to his room to study, and he looked quite decent.
The table and benches that Old Man Zhou bought for the fourth room last time were put to great use, making it more convenient for Zhou Lang to study.
Old Zhou’s adobe house is relatively spacious and solid in Taohua Village. The main house is large and the side rooms are also not small, about 20 to 30 square meters.
The whole family can live in one room and it is not too crowded.
Several beds can be placed side by side, one for a couple, and if there are children, a few more can be placed next to them.
There is a place for tables, chairs and benches.
Lin Shiqi's room only has one bed and seems a little empty because there are no children.
She cordoned off an area in the house to soak the bean sprouts.
She also explained to Mrs. Zhou the principle of soaking bean sprouts, which requires using tools such as basins.
Mrs. Zhou strongly supported her and brought all the usable basins and buckets to Lin Shiqi.
Of course, Lin Shiqi only used these to avoid being seen. Old Zhou's family had limited basins and buckets, and her home was far from having as many tools and containers as hers.
Most of them are soaked in her home.
