Chapter 238 Qin Zhizhi’s plan!
Gu Jinghuai returned home and talked to Qin Zhizhi about cabbage and green vegetables.
The next day, Qin Zhizhi took Qin Shan and Qin He to the farm and prepared to start selling cabbage and green vegetables.
In the shop that used to sell watermelons and strawberries, in order to ensure the freshness of the vegetables, Qin Zhizhi had people pick the vegetables and sell them on the same day.
The quantity is limited each day, first come first served, while stocks last. Qin Shan and Qin He of course listened to Qin Zhizhi.
When returning from the farm that day, Qin Zhizhi specially brought back a cart of cabbage.
When on duty the next day, Qin Zhizhi asked a few people to bring some, so each official from the Ministry of Revenue and the Hanlin Academy received two cabbages.
The officials from the Ministry of Revenue and the Hanlin Academy were overjoyed. They had been wanting to buy them for the past two days, and today they got two for free.
When they learned that this thing was grown by Qin Zhizhi, the people from the Ministry of Revenue and the Hanlin Academy thought that someone was really lucky to be able to use the back door.
The people in the Ministry of Revenue began to feel fortunate that Gu Ting had brought Qin Qingyuan here. Although Gu Ting could also help them get cabbage, it all depended on Gu Ting's mood.
It was much easier to ask Qin Qingyuan for help than to ask Gu Ting for help, and everyone thanked Qin Qingyuan again and again.
When we heard that it would be sold in the store tomorrow, we decided to inform everyone when we got home today and line up early tomorrow.
After Qin Zhizhi greeted Gu Yunfei, the cabbages and greens from the farm were delivered to the shop early the next morning.
The shop was crowded with people as soon as it opened, and Qin Shan and Qin He were busy all the time.
The cabbages and greens were sold out on the first day. Qin Zhizhi had a rough idea of what was going on, so she asked her uncle Qin Shan to send two more carts over tomorrow.
As for her father Qin He, Qin Zhizhi planned to ask him to return to Qinjia Village.
Qinjia Village also planted cabbage and green vegetables this year. Qin Zhizhi wanted to make a batch of spicy cabbage from these cabbages before the snow fell.
Qinjia Village grows its own peppers, grinds them into powder, and now sells them together with the cabbages grown in the village.
"Dad, let uncle take care of the farm. You need to go back to Qin Village."
After the shop closed, Qin Zhizhi called her father Qin He and went directly back to the Qin family, while Qin Shan went directly to the farm.
After hearing her granddaughter say this, Mrs. Qin knew that her granddaughter had a new idea.
"Zhizhi, can your father go alone? If not, ask your mother to go with him."
Mrs. Qin was worried that her second son would mess up her granddaughter's affairs and was a little concerned.
"Yes, Zhizhi, I'm fine. The Emperor has asked the Ministry of Rites to arrange your elder brother's marriage to the princess. How about I go back with your father?"
Zhang was also afraid that her husband would mess up her daughter's affairs, so when her mother-in-law asked her to go along, she agreed.
Qin Zhizhi thought about it and decided that it would be okay for her mother and father to go together. Her mother was smart, and she could teach her her kimchi recipe.
"Thank you for your hard work, mother. I happen to have a recipe, so I will teach you tonight. Then when we get to Qinjia Village, you can teach them how to make it."
"Okay, I promise to learn it, and I promise to teach them all to make something that satisfies you."
Zhang quickly assured that she was happy to be able to help her daughter.
"Second sister-in-law, you and your second brother can go back without worry. Third sister-in-law and I are at home. We will take good care of mom and dad."
Mrs. Li is currently busy with her son's engagement with Ning Ning, so she can't leave for the time being, otherwise she would also like to go back with them.
"Thank you, sister-in-law and third brother-in-law, for your hard work!"
"Second sister-in-law, I won't go back with you this time. I'll stay in the capital to help my eldest sister-in-law."
"There are so many people in our Qinjia Village. I just want to teach them. It's not tiring." Zhang said with a smile.
"Zhizhi, when do you plan to let your parents leave?" Mrs. Qin asked with concern.
"Grandma, I'm here to teach you how to make kimchi tonight. I also need to prepare some ingredients for it. I think we should leave the day after tomorrow."
Qin Zhizhi felt that it was too urgent to leave tomorrow, and she also wanted to exchange some things with Wanwan.
"Okay, just tell us what you need us to do, and we'll do as you say."
When it comes to everything related to her granddaughter, Granny Qin is the one who does it 100%.
"Dad, Mom, you can stay a little longer this time. Make all the cabbages from Qinjia Village into spicy cabbage, and make some sausages before you come back."
Qin Zhizhi calculated that there was still about a month before the New Year, so her parents could go there and finish all their things before coming back.
"Okay, your father and I will listen to you!" Zhang had no objection to her daughter's arrangement.
"Just go back to Qinjia Village and do your work. Don't worry about the things at home. Just make sure you don't miss the New Year."
Mrs. Qin said that she was worried that the two of them would rush back to Beijing and delay their granddaughter's affairs.
"Mom, don't worry, I will definitely prioritize Zhizhi's affairs."
Qin He promised, but couldn't help thinking that his status in his mother's heart was becoming less and less.
In the past, if I went out for ten days and didn’t come back, my mother would be worried. Now that my daughter asked me to stay with my wife for a month before coming back, my mother didn’t think it was wrong at all.
"Oh, by the way, Dad, when you and Mom go back this time, please take some of the people from the farm back with you. Go to the farm tomorrow to make some arrangements."
"Zhizhi, if they go back, will Zhuangzi still be able to handle this?" Li asked worriedly.
"Aunt, if you are busy, come here. Go back one group first, and then go back another group before the New Year. It's just right for us to help in Qinjia Village."
"Daddy will go early tomorrow morning."
"Grandma, there's still some cabbage at home, right? Let's go to the kitchen and I'll teach you how to make kimchi."
"Yes, yes, Zhizhi has everything she wants. Grandma should also learn from her. Everything my granddaughter teaches is a treasure."
"Zhizhi, let's go too!"
Seeing that Mrs. Qin was about to leave, Li and Wang also stood up and followed her. They all went to the kitchen happily.
Qin Shan saw several people go to the kitchen, and he went to do other things. With his wife accompanying him to Qinjia Village, he was not worried about making kimchi at all.
When she arrived in the kitchen, Qin Zhizhi picked a few cabbages, removed the old stems and yellow leaves, rinsed them, and cut them into four halves.
Add salt and mix well to marinate, then rinse repeatedly with clean water to wash off as much salt as possible and dehydrate.
Then add appropriate amount of chili powder, salt, sugar, etc. If you like spicy food, add more chili powder and mix well.
Then put it in the jar, press it with your hands to make the surface flat, and cover it.
"Is this all right?" Zhang asked curiously.
"You can try it tomorrow morning, but if you want it to be more flavorful, it usually takes about five days of weather like this."
Qin Zhizhi also told her mother Zhang some details, such as opening the lid every other day to release the gas produced.
"Zhizhi, don't worry. I've remembered everything. I'll make the same arrangements when we get to Qinjia Village."
"Thank you for your hard work, mother. I still have a few more recipes related to cabbage. I will sort them out today and teach you tomorrow. I will give them to Shopkeeper Wang then."
The Qin family and Manager Wang have always cooperated. In addition to making kimchi, Qin Zhizhi thought that the cabbage from Qinjia Village could be sold to restaurants.
