Chapter 86: One meat and one vegetable take mother and daughter shopping...
Chapter 86
Lin Mujin took Luo Meijuan and Wang Xiaoli, mother and daughter, to the wholesale market, where clothes and daily necessities were sold at even lower prices.
They had actually already returned to their rented house and returned the two extended gas stove heads they had purchased.
Cousin Lin also returned a brand new gas tank, and then rushed back to the food truck, which was about to serve customers.
Lin Mujin gave the mother and daughter 500 yuan in advance so that they could buy what they needed.
However, the mother and daughter were unfamiliar with the place, so Lin Mujin could only act as a guide, translator, and bargain.
I'm quite busy.
Both mother and daughter are frugal and only bought one set of clothes each, but two sets of underwear and socks.
I bought toothpaste and a toothbrush, a bar of soap and a towel.
After buying these, I don't plan to buy anymore.
Lin Mujin reminded them that they had to buy a wooden comb and rubber bands, otherwise what would they do with their hair? The key point was that both of them had long hair.
The two of them then remembered to buy it.
She also took the opportunity to buy two hair bags, also for the mother and daughter.
But it was a job requirement, just like a white coat and hat, and she could provide them without them having to pay for it.
Finally, she asked the mother and daughter to buy two basins to wash their faces, feet and clothes, and she didn't care how to divide them.
After confirming once more that they didn't want to buy it, the three of them took the bus back.
Back at the rented house, Lin Mujin handed the key she had taken from Li Xiuying to Luo Meijuan.
There was only one, so she told them to keep it well. As for who would take it in the end, the mother or the daughter, they could discuss it among themselves.
Li Xiuying is not at home. She probably went out to buy groceries. Now she needs to cook at home.
Fortunately, we met when we came back for the first time and were introduced to each other.
She went back to the house and found two clean rags and asked Luo Meijuan and the others to clean up their bedrooms.
Last night they just moved the furniture up and wiped the surface.
After giving Lin Mujin the instructions, I went back first. There were still 3,000 words left in today's 8,000-word task.
This is because I got 2,000 in advance yesterday, otherwise today would have been a waste.
In order not to stay up late, I will write as much as I can.
But I didn’t write for too long because I had to go cook.
But before that, she had to teach Luo Meijuan and her daughter how to use the water heater.
"You can't wash in a closed space for too long. You'll easily faint. Also, your new clothes need to be rinsed thoroughly. Hang them in the bedroom so they can dry by tomorrow morning."
After letting the mother and daughter take a shower and wash clothes, Lin Mujin went to the refrigerator to get some ingredients and went to the kitchen.
I saw Li Xiuying serving the dish, stir-fried shredded potatoes.
Sniffling, it tastes sour and spicy.
"Sister Xiuying's cooking skills are pretty good."
Li Xiuying smiled sheepishly, "I only know how to cook a few home-cooked dishes."
He quickly washed the iron pot and said, "I'm done with it, you can use it."
He returned to the house with the dishes and a bowl of porridge.
Lin Mujin looked at the soaked kelp and found that it was completely soaked.
Take it out and rinse it several times to clean it thoroughly.
Roll it into a roll and start cutting it into thin strips, then throw it back into the bowl.
"A bit much."
But she did it on purpose, the mixed kelp shreds are the vegetable part of the one meat and one vegetable dish.
The mother and daughter came from Shen City, Liaoning Province, and probably seldom ate seafood.
"Next is cooking."
Of course, it’s the rice cooker. Thanks to my past self, I bought a large-capacity rice cooker that can be used by five people, or even seven people.
Don’t worry about the rice, but there are not enough vegetables.
If you promised to have one meat dish and one vegetable dish, you must keep your word.
She took out a large piece of pork belly and washed four large eggplants.
Feeling that it was not enough, I went to wash two more potatoes.
Cut part of the pork belly into slices and the rest into thin strips. Cut the eggplant into two sections and then into two halves and put them in the steamer.
Peel and dice the potatoes and soak them in water.
Then cut the cucumber and carrot into slices.
Before the eggplant is steamed, she blanches the kelp shreds in water and cooks them for three minutes after the water boils.
After taking it out, put it in cold water to cool it down, then take it out and add minced garlic, oyster sauce, soy sauce, salt, MSG and chili oil. Stir it and the dish is done.
At this time, the eggplant is almost done. Use chopsticks to poke it. If it goes through easily, it means it is cooked.
Don't pick it out, just set it aside to cool.
First, stir-fry the pork belly with cucumber and carrot slices.
Add a little oil and stir-fry the pork belly until the fat is removed. When both sides of the pork belly are golden brown, add the scallions, ginger and garlic and stir-fry until fragrant. Then add the cucumber slices and carrot slices, stir-fry quickly, add salt, white pepper, oyster sauce and MSG, stir-fry a few more times and it is ready to serve.
Anyway, cucumbers and carrots can be eaten raw, so there is no need to worry about them being undercooked.
This dish is amazing, the taste is different at each cooking time.
Hers today is crispy and tender.
Put the prepared dishes aside, only the last one is left.
"Um...Ms. Lin..."
Lin Mujin turned around and saw Luo Meijuan.
Luo Meijuan's hair was still wet; she had just come out of the shower. "What's going on?"
Luo Meijuan said a little nervously, "Is there any work I can do?"
Lin Mujin smiled. She really liked the other person's initiative. Such people have work in their eyes. "You should have a good rest today. I will take you to make a set of uniforms later. There will be no other things to do. Rest early. You need to get up early tomorrow."
Luo Meijuan still didn't leave, "Do you have any clothes to wash? I'll wash them together."
Lin Mujin quickly said, "There's a washing machine. I'll teach you how to use it later."
She said she forgot something again, what a bad memory.
Luo Meijuan waved her hands, "No, no, just wash it by hand."
Lin Mujin didn't say anything more. She knew she had to teach him, but she didn't care whether he would use it or not.
Start making the last dish.
First, tear the eggplant into long strips with your hands and place them on a plate for later use.
Heat oil in a pan and fry the diced potatoes until golden brown on both sides, then serve.
Heat oil in a wok and stir-fry the shredded pork with onion, ginger, garlic, and dried chili segments. Use more minced garlic, as minced garlic and eggplant are a perfect match.
Add shredded eggplant and diced potatoes and stir-fry, then add oyster sauce, soy sauce, five-spice powder, salt and MSG. Finally, garnish with some fresh chopped green onion and minced garlic and serve.
"I cooked dinner early today, why didn't you come back?"
Lin Mujin looked at the time. It wasn’t early yet. It was the same time as usual.
She found two newly bought large bowls, filled most of them with rice, then used chopsticks to pick up two large chopsticks of kelp shreds, and used a spoon to scoop out a portion of stir-fried pork belly, eggplant and diced potatoes.
As for cucumbers and carrots, I didn’t give them any because there weren’t many of them.
Holding a large bowl in one hand, he said, "Wang Xiaoli, don't clean up your meal yet. Eat it while it's hot."
Wang Xiaoli wiped her hands on her clothes and quickly took it. "Thank you, Miss Lin."
Lin Mujin waved her hand, "You're welcome. We agreed to provide food and accommodation."
Then he turned around and filled two iron pots with water and handed them over. "From now on, these are your water pots. Put them in your rooms."
I glanced at their bedroom again and saw that there was no desk, so they could only eat with their bowls in hand.
At that time, I was only concerned with choosing the bunk bed and wardrobe, and didn't think about eating.
Let's look at it later. You can consider buying a second-hand one. As for going to Sister Zhu to choose one, forget it. You can't always stick to the same thing.
