After the old lady Liu opened the lid of the pot, she found that the pot was full of meat with oil and smelled fragrant. The old lady Liu couldn't help but said to Chen Daming directly.

"Big brother, you are here to deliver food to your sister, right? How come you brought all their food here?"

The reason why the old lady Liu said this is because when she took the chopsticks just now, she suddenly remembered that the pot in her hand was the dowry she gave to her daughter when she married her daughter!

Just because of this pot, she still remembered that at that time, the daughter-in-law of her second son's family, as well as the third and fourth sons' families, all said bad things about the third daughter-in-law in front of her!

They all knew that this kind of pot with a green flower on it would cost 30 coins in the county.

That's 30 coins!

Old lady Liu still remembers that when the third daughter-in-law said this, she looked very distressed.

At this moment, Chen Daming found that his mother looked very unhappy and seemed to be angry with him, so he quickly said, "Mom, I didn't want to take this thing over. After all, I know very well in my heart that no matter how difficult our family is, at least we have food and drink. It's much better than the third sister's family. But you know the third sister. She has a very strong self-esteem. If I don't take the things she sends, she will turn against me directly."

"Mother, a harmonious family is the foundation of everything. It's not worth it to make us brothers and sisters unhappy for such a small thing. I think that we should pay attention to mutual exchanges. My third sister gave me this delicious fish soup today, so tomorrow I will send some food to her home."

Hearing this, the face of the old lady Liu suddenly brightened.

"That's more like it."

"Big brother, you have to know that I am also doing this for your own good. No matter what, we can't be greedy for such a small advantage. However, the interpersonal relations between relatives should still be more particular."

Finding that she was satisfied and happy, Chen Daming slowly took out the red dates and longans that Chen Xuanxuan had given him from his bag.

"Mom, what do you see?"

Old Lady Liu looked closely and found that her eldest son was holding red dates and longans. She couldn't help but widen her eyes.

"Did your third sister give you this?"

Chen Daming nodded heavily.

When Old Lady Liu saw it, she couldn't help but say, "Big brother, your third sister is a resourceful person. Who knows what good fortune she will have in the future."

As an old lady who has seen the world and is particularly good at calculating, she has always known the market prices of various things sold in the county and town. In

this early spring season, there are red dates the size of eggs, and these clean and dried longans, which are sold at a very high price.

Back then, she had just given birth to this eldest son in the early spring. Her lover, Captain Gao, bought her two taels of red dates, two taels of longans, two taels of brown sugar, one jin of rice, and three jin of white flour in the county town.

It didn't look like much, it seemed like there were only these five things, but he still spent more than 160 wen!

You know, Captain Gao only earned 300 wen a month!

In order to let her have a good confinement, he was really willing to spend money on her.

Thinking of the past, Mrs. Liu couldn't help but remind Chen Daming, "Big brother, these red dates and longans are obviously not cheap. I've lived to this age, and this is the first time I've seen red dates as big as eggs. And these longans, you can tell at a glance that they are new this year. The shells look so beautiful..."

Chen Daming has been a peddler for many years. He has been to almost all the nearby counties and villages.

However, after going to so many places, he has never seen anyone with red dates as big as eggs.

"Mom, my third sister told me to sell these eggs and longans, and I agreed. Besides, I have already found a buyer. I will leave early tomorrow morning and go directly to Tongzhen next door."

There is a wealthy family in Tongzhen. His family opened three large noodle shops. He married a new daughter-in-law two years ago. But the new daughter-in-law has been married for several years and still can't get pregnant.

He had heard from his third sister that these eggs, dates and longans are suitable for women who have not been pregnant for a long time, so he immediately thought of the Zhao family.

The Zhao family is rich.

Tongzhen is also mostly rich.

After all, Tongzhen is planted with tung trees everywhere. Many people in the town made their fortunes by selling tung oil. It's much better than what they have here.

If I pick some dates and longans to sell, I'm sure I can sell them all in one day.

After listening to Chen Daming's plan, Old Lady Liu completely agreed.

"Boss, just do as you say!"

After saying that, Old Lady Liu's stomach made a few gurgling sounds.

Hearing his mother's stomach growling, Chen Daming quickly took a pair of chopsticks and told her to eat all the fish in the pot.

"Mom, Third Sister's cooking skills are really amazing. Eat the fish while it's still hot..."

Old Lady Liu had been smelling the fragrance for so long that she had actually been craving for it.

She thought about it and asked Chen Daming to quickly take out his own bowl so that she could share some with him.

The mother and son hid in the stove room and ate up all the fish and fish soup in the pot.

At the end, Mrs. Liu used a little noodle paste to wash off the remaining oil in the pot. Then she put the oily paste directly into the pot and stewed it.

"Big brother, I don't know how much oil was put in the pot of fish just now. It tastes quite moist."

After eating and drinking enough, Mrs. Liu said with a smile.

Chen Daming also smiled after hearing this. "Mom, I saw it with my own eyes. The reason why the dishes in the restaurants in this town and the county are so delicious is that they are willing to use oil and salt. From now on, when your son becomes successful and earns more money, you can cook delicious dishes with oil and salt for me every day."

Old lady Liu was so happy by his coaxing that she nodded repeatedly and said, "You are so thoughtful. How can I be so lucky to enjoy such a life..."

Although she said so, she really felt that what her son said was very soothing.

When the mother and son were sitting together and talking, the smell of rice came from Chen Xuanxuan's house.

The starch content of taro is always high. After stewing, it tastes good. After eating, it is easy to feel full.

When Gu Yanzhang and his seven companions came back with various things near dusk, they smelled the rich aroma of food.
