Back to 90s she just wants to get rich

Chapter 382. 381. Invitation

After Xiang Jin and the others moved the things there, with the help of Yan Chen and Yan Fei, they cleaned up and arranged the furniture and appliances. Finally, the house was tidy and tidy, and it looked like a home.

Xiang Jin's grandparents bought a big watermelon at the canteen and cut it up for everyone to eat. Her grandma said to Yan Chen and Yan Fei apologetically, "I originally planned to invite you to come to my house for a meal today. For light meals, but we moved temporarily, so we didn’t buy vegetables. In this way, tomorrow morning, Xiaojin and her grandfather will go to the street to buy some fresh ingredients, and you two will come back to eat with Xiaojin after school at noon. ,what?!"

"Grandma Qiao, in fact, you don't have to be so polite with us," Yan Chen said.

Xiang Jin's grandma's surname was Qiao, and her name was Qiao Yu. They only knew that when Xiang Jin's grandfather called her that.

Yan Fei also echoed, "Yes, yes, we are good friends with Xiang Jin, and we are usually not polite, so you don't have to be so polite with us."

Xiang Jin's grandparents always had a smile on their faces, and Xiang Jin's grandma's eyes were narrowed into a smile, "You're welcome, you're welcome, but you still have to eat this meal?! It's settled like that Alright, all three of you will come back for dinner tomorrow!"

Both Yan Fei and Yan Chen responded one after the other, and then Xiang Jin said, "I see, you are all tired today, and you don't have any food at home, so why don't you just go with us to that small restaurant?" Eat it in a restaurant, and save the trouble of cooking pots and washing dishes."

After looking at each other, her grandparents agreed happily. Apart from a little rice, flour, grain and oil, plus a little sausage and dried fungus and day lily, they really didn't have any fresh fruits and vegetables at home.

"Oh, why are you here so late today? I thought you wouldn't be here for dinner today?" When Xiang Jin and the others arrived at the small restaurant, it was already past two o'clock in the afternoon. There were no students eating, and the proprietress was surprised when she saw them.

Xiang Jin said, "We have something to delay."

The proprietress nodded, then looked at the two old men who followed them, and then asked Xiang Jin cautiously, "Is this your grandparent?"

Xiang Jin was surprised. Seeing her expression, the proprietress immediately said, "Hey, don't be surprised how I know, it must be obvious, you and your grandparents still look a little alike , especially you and your grandma!"

After Xiang Jin's grandparents heard what the proprietress said, they both had kind smiles on their faces.

The proprietress then asked again, "Say, what do you all want to eat, I'll get it for you?"

Xiang Jin went to the glass cabinet to take a look, and found that they were all the usual dishes, but the proprietress said again, "If you want to eat something else, we also have it here. Let me tell you, in the morning We bought a piece of mutton when we went to the vegetable market, and it is being kept fresh in the freezer. I was thinking about how to make the mutton so that the smell is not so strong, and there are two live fish in our place , if you want to eat, I can also kill one for you and burn it?"

Xiang Jin said, "Okay, then add two more of these dishes, but I will cook these two dishes myself." This weekend is their rare rest time, and she happens to have time to treat her stomach.

"You cook it yourself?!" The proprietress was surprised, and then looked at her suspiciously, "Can you cook?"

Xiang Jin said, "If you don't believe me, you can take a look. If this dish is burnt, don't worry, I'll still give you the money!"

The proprietress immediately smiled, "Sure, I'll get you the ingredients, and then I'll have someone slaughter that fish for you!"

"Okay," Xiang Jin nodded, and then pulled her back, "But I still want to order a few dishes. Please help me with these few dishes. I really can't cook so much by myself!"

"Okay, no problem!" The proprietress immediately agreed with a bright face.

After Xiang Jin ordered a few dishes, she walked over and said to several people, "Sit down for a while, I'll go and cook two dishes," she turned around and walked towards the kitchen.

"Oh?!" Xiang Jin's grandma looked at her with a slight frown and wanted to stop her, but was stopped by Yan Fei, "Grandma Qiao, don't worry, Xiang Jin's cooking is delicious , she must be afraid that the two dishes they cook will not taste good, so she has to cook them herself."

"Is that so?!" Although they had heard that Xiang Jin could cook, they had never tasted it, so Xiang Jin's grandma still didn't believe it. After all, she was only in her teens, and she lived in the In the countryside, the most important thing is that the environment she lived in since she was a child is also very bad. It is good to be able to eat enough, and she will taste some delicious food, let alone see those rare and precious ingredients. So how good can her cooking skills be?At most, it is more fragrant than ordinary people's meals.

But the children's enthusiasm is high right now, and it's inconvenient for them to say anything. The old lady thought in her heart that even if her granddaughter's food is unpalatable, she will cheer and eat more and say it is delicious. Don't discount it. hurt her face.

"Well," Yan Fei nodded vigorously.

Then Yan Chen got up directly and walked over, and then asked Xiang Jin, "Do you need help?"

Xiang Jin asked him directly, "What flavor do you want to eat with that fish? Is it braised in brown sauce, or sweet and sour?" She just took a look at the boss's food, which is quite rich. There are tofu and tomatoes. If it is sweet and sour, she will serve it with tofu, and if it is sweet and sour, she will use tomatoes.

Yan Chen can say anything!Any flavor he likes will do!
Xiang Jin stopped to think for a while, and then said, "Then let's make sweet and sour. I'll make this mutton into cumin flavor later, so add a few other stir-fried and steamed vegetables, and we'll make it Instead of making so many salty ones, we will make sweet and sour ones, so that the sweet and sour tastes more appetizing, and it will not be so greasy."

Yan Chen said, "Yes!" He rolled up his sleeves and picked out a few bright red tomatoes, "Then I'll deal with these tomatoes!"

"it is good!"

As soon as Xiang Jin finished processing the mutton, the proprietress and the others also slaughtered the fish, and then brought in the fish and handed it to Xiang Jin, "Little girl, this is the fish you want!"

"Oh, thank you!" Xiang Jin took it.

The proprietress hesitated and walked aside, but she couldn't hold back after all, and then confirmed to Xiang Jin, "Little girl, you really don't want our help?!"

Xiang Jin shook her head, "No need!" After finishing speaking, she picked up the fish and put it under the faucet to rinse it again. After rinsing for a while, she put it on the chopping board and began to process its fishy thread Come on, the next step is to cut off the fish head, and then draw a cross-shaped knife on the fish body, and then treat the fish with seasoning and egg liquid, and the last step is to hang the whole fish with a layer of starch and put it aside Transfer to a dry, empty plate and set aside.

……

The proprietress sat in front of the cashier and turned her body sideways, quietly watching Xiang Jin's next series of actions.

She watched her pour oil into the pot, then put vegetables into the pot, and then put seasonings into the pot again, well, the technique is quite skillful, and the step by step is also methodical, it seems like There is such a thing, but I don't know how the result is?
The proprietress was thinking secretly in her heart, but she was still partial to Xiang Jin's cooking skills, which were definitely not as good as her academic performance and her face!

However, about half an hour later, when he saw the two delicious and delicious dishes, the boss's eyes almost fell to his chin in surprise, "Oh, my little girl, you are amazing, I I only thought that your academic performance is excellent, but I didn’t expect that your cooking skills are so good, tell auntie, how can you be so capable, ah?!”

Even Xiang Jin's grandparents were amazed, and the eyes that looked at her were full of love.

Xiang Jin joked, "You haven't even tasted my food, so you just say I'm good. Ma'am, your way of boasting is getting better and better?!"

The proprietress laughed and said, "You are so modest, I don't need to taste it. Just by smelling this dish, I know it must be delicious!"

"Thank you for the award, but would you like to bring your bowls and chopsticks to taste?" Xiang Jin invited.

The proprietress shook her head, "No, eat it, we've already eaten it."

Xiang Jin didn't show politeness to them either, "Okay, then just think about it, how much will you charge us for these two dishes today."

Yan Fei helped put the two dishes on the dining table, and started eating with everyone.

After her grandma had tasted the two dishes made by Xiang Jin, she bluntly said that they were delicious, and Xiang Jin said, "If they are delicious, you should eat more!"

After a while, Xiang Jin got up, "The soup should be almost ready, I'll go and serve it out." At that time, she didn't throw away the fish head, but directly used it to cook a fish head tofu soup.

Just when she turned around, she saw that the proprietress had already walked towards them with a pot of soup, "You sit and eat yours, I'll serve this soup for you!"

After thanking Jin, she sat down directly. After the proprietress put down the soup bowl, she directly handed her a pair of chopsticks, "How about trying this cumin lamb I made?"

The proprietress was a little dumbfounded, "Are you really asking me to eat?"

Xiang Jin said, "Of course!"

After staring at her for a while, the proprietress took the chopsticks from her hand, "Okay, then I'll try it!" She picked up a piece of mutton from the plate and ate it.

"Well, it's delicious. It's crispy on the outside, delicious and smooth on the inside, and has no smell at all. How did you make it, little girl?" The proprietress was pleasantly surprised after eating a piece.

Yan Fei said, "Didn't you watch her do it?"

The proprietress said, "She made it with her back to me. I only looked at it roughly, but didn't see it very carefully." The main thing was that she didn't think how delicious she would make it at the time. She thought that this girl could cook It would be good to cook the meat well, but she is still too self-righteous!

Xiang Jin said, "I'll tell you later after dinner!"

"Oh, okay, then eat slowly," the proprietress said, then turned around and left with the pair of chopsticks in her hand.

After the meal, Xiang Jin asked the proprietress directly for paper and pen, and then wrote out the recipe for the cumin mutton according to what she understood, "Okay, proprietress, you can follow these steps to try it yourself later. Bar."

After the proprietress read it, she felt that the little girl's production steps were very detailed, so she smiled and said, "Oh, little girl, can you write me the recipe of your sweet and sour fish too?" ? I think your sweet and sour fish is also very beautiful!"

Xiang Jin said, "Why not?" Then she picked up a pen and wrote it down on the paper.

Xiang Jin put down his pen, and then said to her, "Okay, how much is the meal at noon today, just deduct it from my account!"

Xiang Jin's grandma didn't agree after hearing about it, saying that they had to pay for it, who asked her, a child, to pay for it?
Xiang Jin said, "It's okay, we all deposit one month's living expenses with them in advance, and it will save trouble if we directly deduct it from that account.

The proprietress also nodded with a smile on her face and said, "Yes!" Xiang Jin's grandma had no choice but to give up, and then heard the proprietress say, "Well, you taught us how to make two dishes. This meal is free, counted as auntie thanking you!"

Everyone was surprised, and then heard Xiang Jin joking, "Auntie, you have to think about it, my meal today may be the last time I eat fried rice at your house, such a good opportunity to make money If you give up, you might not earn any money from me, right?"

Immediately, the proprietress was surprised, "Why, what's the matter, little girl, you won't eat at Auntie's house anymore?"

Xiang Jin said, "My grandparents rented a room in our school, and I might eat with them later."

The proprietress was startled, and then she smiled a little far-fetched, "Really? That's pretty good too! You don't have to wait to eat with your grandparents, and you can save more time then!"

Xiang Jin smiled again, "So, see if you still want to earn my money for this lunch at noon today. If you don't earn my money, then I will pick it up!"

The proprietress waved her hands proudly, "Hey, what's the point? If you don't make money, you don't make money. If you say treat you to eat, you can eat. In addition, it's just a thank you for your support of our business over the past two years! "

Xiang Jin was not polite to her either, "Then thank you all!"

The proprietress sighed, "Oh, I just miss you!" Then she opened the drawer in front of her, "Then I'll refund you the rest of the money!"

Xiang Jin said, "You don't need to refund, just hang it on your account. It's not true that we won't come to your place to eat in the future, but we still want to come to your place to eat. For example, our family didn't cook or My grandparents are not at home, or our family's breakfast and dinner can also come to you."

The proprietress nodded after hearing this, and then closed the drawer again, still smiling, "Okay, then I won't refund you, and you can just deduct it from your account when you come."

After Xiang Jin and the others left the small restaurant, they said to her grandma, "It's hot, if you don't want to cook, you can come to them to eat directly. The sanitary conditions in their house are still good. I'm in their The pre-deposited money in the account looks like more than 400 yuan. The proprietress is usually a good person, and every time we eat, she asks their family to provide enough food, so I don’t bother to transfer the money from Their family account has been withdrawn, if you don’t eat, I will eat at their house once in a while, and I don’t know when the money in the account will be deducted!”

Her grandma also nodded with a smile on her face, "Okay, listen to you, we will go to their house to eat then!"

Walking to the fork in the road, Xiang Jin said to them, "Okay, I'm a little sleepy, I want to go back and take a nap, you guys should go back and rest too." Today was moving and cleaning. She was still cooking later, and she was really sleepy. It had been a long time since she had done such continuous physical work for several hours. As soon as this person relaxed, she felt like dozing off.

Yan Chen and Yan Fei nodded, and Xiang Jin and her grandparents also said, "That's fine, then you can go back quickly."

At present, Xiang Jin is still living in the dormitory. One of the reasons is that there is only one bed in their rented house, and they moved here from the district government compound today. Yes, the second one is because she is a bit lazy and doesn't want to move at the moment, even though Yan Fei said he still has a vacant camping bed, but she just thinks it's troublesome to move, and she wants to wait for a while Well, at least until next weekend, when she sleeps in and moves those things over there little by little.

As soon as Xiang Jin returned to the dormitory, Ren Xiaoyan ran over to her and asked, "Xiang Jin, Xiang Jin, are you going to move out of the dormitory? When your bed becomes vacant, I will move here." live?"

"Who told you?" Xiang Jin asked.

Ren Xiaoyan said, "Everyone in the dormitory is saying that your grandparents rented a house in our school to wash clothes and cook for you.

At that time, some people saw you moving, such as TV, refrigerator, and air conditioner. Many people are envious of you, saying that your family is very rich and treats you very well. In order to take care of your food and daily life, and you will only stay here for a year at most, your family has specially moved those expensive household appliances for use, so you won’t be afraid of the trouble of moving around when you leave. "

Xiang Jin was speechless, those things did not come from what they really wanted to buy, they were pulled over out of helplessness, presumably her grandparents were also regretting to death at this time, why did they entrust those people to find them for them in the first place? In the end, they spent such a large amount of money unjustly. Today, those things cost more than 1 yuan. They must be depressed and hurt right now!
"Hey, Xiang Jin, are you coming back to pack your things now? Are you going to move out later? Shall I help you?" Ren Xiaoyan asked again.

Xiang Jin shook his head, "Not yet!"

"Ah?!" Ren Xiaoyan was startled for a long time.

Xiang Jin repeated, "I will probably live in the dormitory for a while."

"Oh, good!" Ren Xiaoyan replied resentfully after hearing this.

Xiang Jin just brushed past her and went to wash up on the balcony behind.

The next day, Xiang Jin and her grandparents bought dishes for all ages, entertained them with full sincerity, and made a big table for them with at least eleven or twelve delicious dishes. After Xiang Jin and the others went back Serve directly.

It is said that her grandparents cooked the dishes together, half of which were made by Xiang Jin's grandma, and the other half by her grandfather, but I have to say that her grandparents' cooking skills are quite good. Xiang Jin felt that it was similar to her craftsmanship.

"Is it delicious?" Her grandma was all smiles, and kept filling the bowls with vegetables for them, as if they were afraid they wouldn't have enough to eat.

Everyone nodded, "Well, it's delicious!"

Her grandma laughed even more happily, and then said to Yan Chen and Yan Fei, "If it's delicious, you can eat more. In the future, you will often come to our house to eat, me and Xiao Jin, her grandfather, what else?" No, there is so much time this time, we can prepare this meal for you in advance, and then you can just come back and eat."

Yan Chen said, "Thank you Grandma Qiao and Grandpa Ouyang."

Yan Fei also hurriedly thanked him.

Xiang Jin's grandma just couldn't thank her.

After the meal, when they were walking back to the classroom, Xiang Jin said to them, "Why don't you just come to our house for dinner from now on?"

Yan Fei looked at Yan Chen, and Yan Chen shook his head slightly, "Forget it, you don't know them very well yet, so it's not good to trouble them rashly like this!"

Yan Fei followed suit and said, "Yes, we paid the living expenses in advance in that small restaurant, and the life in that small restaurant is not bad, so let's just eat there."

Xiang Jin said, "Actually, this is what my grandparents meant, but they were afraid that you would not agree, so let me ask you. They said that we have to eat anyway, so you just add more food." A pair of chopsticks."

Both Yan Chen and Yan Fei were surprised for a moment, Yan Fei looked at Yan Chen again, Yan Chen said after a while of silence, "Okay, I will eat at your house from next month."

Yan Fei looked at Yan Chen in surprise, and Xiang Jin asked him, "What about you?"

Yan Fei's eyes flickered, "I, I'll think about it!"

Xiang Jin nodded.

Then when there were only him and Yan Chen, Yan Fei asked Yan Chen in a low voice, "Oh, brother, do you really plan to go to Xiang Jin's house for dinner from next month?"

"Well, partner!"

"Go, join?!" Yan Fei was surprised again.

Yan Chen asked back, "Otherwise, is it possible to go to someone else's house to eat for nothing?" Although he knew Xiang Jin quite well, and there was no need to worry about it between the two of them, but he and Xiang Jin's grandparents and the others had nothing to do with each other. I'm not very familiar with it, so eating at other people's homes naturally requires living expenses.

After a while, Yan Fei asked again, "Then, if you partner with Xiang Jin's family, how much do you plan to pay for their family's monthly living expenses?"

Yan Chen said, "I don't know, let's see the situation!"

Yan Fei said, "Hey, you said that if they make such big fish and meat every day, how much will they spend on that day?"

Yan Chen glanced at him lightly, "You think too much, it doesn't take time for people to cook so many dishes? Don't worry, there won't be ten dishes. The reason why people cook so many dishes today is because People treat us as guests, and we won’t be so polite when we get to know them well in the future.”

Yan Fei said, "Oh, I'm just afraid that I won't have enough living expenses for a month!"

"Non-thinking!" Yan Chen left after leaving this sentence.

"Hey, are you waiting for me?!"
