Chapter 51 Mall launches new categories
Shen Qing: .....I know books are good and important in the mall, but can you open meat, weapons, transportation, daily necessities, and seasoning categories first? If that doesn’t work, then even eggs, vegetables, and fabrics will be fine.
What she lacks most now is not spiritual food, but the practical daily necessities!
Forget it, it’s better to have something than nothing. Shen Qing couldn’t look at the books carefully while walking on the road, so he turned his eyes to the locker.
Five cubic meters is not big, probably about the same size as a bathroom - the size of a bathroom in a commercial house in the city, not the size of a bathroom in a self-built house in the countryside. The bathroom in a self-built house is almost as big as her guest bedroom or even the master bedroom.
The advantage of it is that the things you put in will remain in the same condition when you take them out, without spoiling or spoiling. It has a similar function to a refrigerator, but the difference is that it is more excellent and will remain fresh when you take it out!
Shen Qing was excited. This storage cabinet was so practical.
Even though it is not big, it is perfect for carrying heavy items and valuables such as silver, money, and travel passes.
She can also put a kitchen knife in it - this is equivalent to carrying a weapon with her, which can save her life at a critical moment.
Shen Qing looked at Jiang Yu with a burning and eager gaze, as if he was looking at a rare treasure.
Jiang Yu: "...Sister-in-law?"
Shen Qing came back to his senses and replied cheerfully, "My family bought some new fabrics yesterday, so I asked Bing to make you two new sets of clothes. You won't wear the ones I brought back."
It saves you from feeling uncomfortable after getting it worn.
Jiang Yu understood what her sister-in-law meant, and she said sensibly, "It's okay. It would be a waste to throw away clothes that can be worn. You can use new fabrics to make clothes."
The cloth was so expensive. How could she not know the financial situation at home? She must have calculated everything and saved as much as she could before buying a small piece of cloth. How could she take up most of it when she got home?
"Don't throw it away. It has other uses. Don't worry, it won't be wasted." Shen Qing said casually.
Jiang Yu was about to ask again in confusion when he saw several men walking towards Shen Qing.
They were getting farther and farther away from Shili Village and closer and closer to Qili Village. After they were no longer afraid of danger, the men who were anxious to go back came over to say hello and go home first.
Shen Qing shouted, "No, thank you all for your hard work today! If it weren't for everyone keeping the peace, how could Liu Sheng sign the divorce agreement so smoothly? And he wouldn't be able to bring Xiaoyu back so smoothly.
Before leaving, my eldest daughter-in-law and daughter had already prepared food at home. It wasn't too rich, but it was enough to fill you up! If you don't mind, come to the Jiang family and eat your fill before returning!"
Now is the month of lean season, and every household is saving as much food as possible. Today they came out ready to go home for lunch after their hard work, and they never thought that Shen Qing would prepare lunch.
After all, with seventy or eighty people, a single meal could consume at least three days' worth of food for the Jiang family, not to mention the food they eat until they are full.
They didn't dare to agree immediately, but looked at the village chief, Mr. Jiang.
Shen Qing then said to Master Jiang, "Second Uncle, I asked Ah Bing and Xiao Shui to prepare some food before I left. You guys have helped me so much today, so feel free to eat. It's just some ordinary pancakes and steamed buns."
Jiang Datao knew what Shen Qing had ordered. Those were pancakes and steamed buns made of white flour, and there were also eggs!
Mr. Jiang was probably thinking about the steamed bread and vegetable pancakes, and said to everyone, "You have all worked hard today. Please forgive me if I can't treat you well later."
Hearing what the village chief said, the men cheered and walked towards Shen Qing's house more eagerly.
After a busy morning, we are all really hungry.
Shen Qing instructed Feng Xing and Feng Tao, who were supporting Jiang Yu, to run ahead of the team and go home first to make arrangements.
When they got home, they found that Huo Bingjiang, Shui Guanli and the other two had already cleaned up all the items needed to make brushes and soap, and the yard was spotless.
The kitchen was steaming hot.
The clean winnowing basket was piled high with white flour cakes;
Two bamboo baskets were filled with fist-sized white flour buns;
The firewood under the big iron pot was burning brightly, and five steamers were emitting steam above it. There was egg drop soup in the clay pot next to it, and Guan Xiaoshan was scooping it out bowl by bowl.
Huo Bing saw Shen Qing coming over and said, "Mom, the pancakes are baked while the steamed buns are being baked. There may be a few left, but the number of steamed buns should be enough. These five steamers will be ready soon, and the next one will be ready in a cup of tea."
"The three of us were worried about choking on steamed buns and pancakes, so we decided to have egg drop soup instead. Xiaoli brought the bowls from home and borrowed them from her second, third, and fifth uncles. Is that okay with you?"
How could Shen Qing not succeed? She was extremely satisfied with her daughter-in-law who could respond flexibly!
"Okay! You've done a great job. They'll be here soon. Let's take the finished food to the yard first."
·
The men stepped into the simple courtyard surrounded by reeds and saw several large baskets of white flour buns placed on the long bench. They thought they had come to the wrong place.
He stopped unconsciously, looked around, and even wanted to go back.
Shen Qing came out with two bowls of egg drop soup and greeted them warmly with a smile on her face: "Come in, come in. There are not many tables and chairs, so you can just stand or squat to eat."
The man behind was still moving forward. Seeing that the man in front didn't move, he pushed. The man in front came back to his senses from his shock and hurried forward to take the bowl of soup from Shen Qing's hand. When he saw this, he was shocked again!
It was filled with egg drops and even lard, with bits of oil floating on the soup.
Jiang Shui poked his head out of the kitchen and called out crisply, "My dear uncles and brothers, if you've finished eating, there's more in the pot. Don't be shy."
The people at the back also came to the front and saw the fist-sized steamed buns, the piles of pancakes and the rows of solid egg drop soups. They finally understood why the people at the front stood still, because they were also so shocked that they couldn't move!
The elders of the Jiang family really didn't expect Shen Qing to be so willing to give up.
They held the steamed buns in one hand and the egg soup in the other. At first, they ate with restraint, thinking that they would only eat one steamed bun. But as soon as they tasted the delicate white flour and the sweet egg drop soup, they unconsciously ate one and then another.
Just when I was about to put it down, worried that I had eaten too much, I saw two more baskets of steaming hot steamed buns brought out from the kitchen.
In less than a cup of tea, another group came out, enough for not only the men but also the women behind them!
Master Jiang Wu was secretly shocked and whispered, "How many kilograms of noodles did our niece-in-law use for this meal? That's quite a lot."
"There are still quite a few eggs. I've never had egg drop soup with so many eggs!" Master Jiang San exclaimed in admiration.
"The fried meat they sent a few days ago was also very good."
"Yes, it's meaty and fried, with just enough oil and water!"
.....
Mr. Jiang lowered his head and munched on a soft white steamed bun without saying a word. It was unknown what he was thinking about.
Jiang Yu ate soft steamed buns and drank hot egg drop soup, tears streaming down her face.
It’s great to have family.
No, it’s because it’s great that she has family who protects her and supports her and whom she can rely on.
Every one of them was helping her, doing their best to help her.
After Shen Qing greeted the helpers, he went into the house, closed the door and carefully looked at the book categories available in the mall.
I was pleasantly surprised when I saw it.
