Chapter 216 Start preparing

Jiang Zhinuan looked at this and that with a smile.

Brother Shuangzhu is also a bit stronger than when he first came here. He used to look as thin as a bamboo pole, as if a gust of wind could blow people down, but now he looks much more normal.

Looking at Di Qing again, her face has become much rounder, especially the two children, who used to be as thin as chicken cubs, but now the one she raised is fat and cute.

Jiang Zhinuan looked at them one by one, feeling a sense of accomplishment in his heart.

Only Di Qing whispered: "She has fattened everyone, but she has lost weight."

The voice was very low, and everyone was chatting without seeming to hear it. Jiang Zhinuan was about to wash the dishes when she heard Di Qing's words in a trance, and when she turned her head to meet Di Qing's eyes, she saw pity in Di Qing's eyes.

In order to lose weight, no matter how delicious food she cooked, she ate very little, especially roast duck and barbecue. She basically only smelled the smell and didn't touch it.

Di Qing felt sorry for her. He even felt that Jiang Zhinuan had lost so much weight in a short period of time, because he starved himself thin.

And Jiang Zhinuan also understood the pity in Di Qing's eyes, shook her head slightly and smiled at him, she knew that the current Di Qing would not dislike her appearance at all, and she would not have to work so hard to lose weight.

But she has explained to Di Qing more than once that her weight loss is not all for the eyes of others, but mainly for a healthy body. Only when she is healthy enough can she take care of Di Qing and her two children all the time.

Di Qing rolled the wheelchair to Jiang Zhinuan's side: "I'll do the washing."

"Nothing, no trouble."

"I'm coming, I'm coming!" The uncle saw work in his eyes, and hurried over, squatting down to snatch the bowl from Jiang Zhinuan's hand.

But Jiang Zhinuan didn't let go, raised his eyes and smiled: "Uncle, don't wash the dishes, you're overqualified, you and Brother Shuangzhu, one on a bamboo raft and the other on a bamboo awning boat to the back river to pick up people Bar."

When everyone comes to the banquet, they usually arrive one after another in the morning. It is really inconvenient to come to the reed marsh, so Jiang Zhinuan thought about letting them go to the Houhe River to wait after breakfast.

It's definitely not enough to pull them all in one trip, and uncle and brother Shuangzhu have to make two extra trips.

After arranging work, my uncle didn't compete with Jiang Zhinuan to wash the dishes, and prepared to pick up people by the Houhe River with Zhang Shuangzhu.

"Brother Shuangzhu, check it out. In addition to the masters and our family members, I also invited the owner and wife of the grocery store. Most of my uncles don't recognize them. You have to help me find out. This person has to pick up." .”

"Okay, don't worry." Zhang Shuangzhu responded and followed his uncle down the river.

Aunt Su came to Jiang Zhinuan's side: "Come on, I'll wash the dishes, then I suddenly remembered, you said that there are not enough dishes for these three or four tables."

Jiang Zhinuan was obviously taken aback!She patted her head hard!

"Isn't that right? I thought yesterday that something seemed to be missing. Oh, the dishes are all ready, and there are no plates to serve them! Oh, oh!" Jiang Zhinuan got up and ran down while patting his thighs, Shouting along the river.

Uncle and Zhang Shuangzhu had just rowed out, when they heard Jiang Zhinuan's voice.

"Uncle, wait a minute, we have to buy some dishes and bowls!"

Uncle supported the bamboo raft and turned back: "How much do you want?"

Jiang Zhinuan was also a little dazed, this table had twelve dishes, and the children's table also had to be counted, so there were four tables, a total of 48 dishes!If there are ten people per table, forty bowls will be needed!

If you need so many, you can buy new ones, but it will cost a lot of money.

The key is that these things are basically left unused after they are used up, and usually no one can use so many plates and bowls.

Jiang Zhinuan forgot to think about this issue before, and now the banquet is about to start at noon, and it will be used immediately, and there is no other way but to hand over the money bag.

"Uncle, we need 48 plates, [-] bowls, [-] pairs of chopsticks, and [-] spoons."

It is estimated that some children will not know how to use chopsticks, so spoons must be prepared.

My uncle clicked his tongue when he heard it.

"So many, buy new ones?"

if not?Jiang Zhinuan shrugged: "Buy it, you can use some of it when you open a shop in the future."

The uncle had no choice but to take the money bag, and went after Zhang Shuangzhu on the bamboo raft. Jiang Zhinuan shouted from behind: "I bought it, send it back first, we are here waiting to use it."

"Success, uncle knows, just wait."

Jiang Zhinuan sighed and turned back.

She hadn't considered this issue for a long time, there was no other way, she could only do this now, she could only comfort herself, when she opened a shop in the future, she would have to use some and prepare more.

The two taels of silver left in the money bag is enough no matter what.

In the future, the big deal is to make money again.

Before the dishes arrived, Jiang Zhinuan couldn't arrange the dishes first. After all, there was no place to put them. What should be washed was almost done yesterday. She poured out the mushrooms and handed them to Di Qing, who was responsible for washing them.

Then let Uncle Zhang take Anbao and Ningbao to the reed marsh to pick up duck eggs.

"Don't worry, just pick up about twenty of them. Uncle Zhang, just take your two babies for a walk."

Uncle Zhang took the task, and took a little baby with a bamboo basket into the reed marsh with one hand.

Don't worry about the rest, Jiang Zhinuan first boiled the peanuts, threw some salt and star anise into it, and carried the three little milk dogs to the ewes to drink milk.

Before preparing the banquet, the few open-mouthed ones in the family must be fed first, and the grass should also be served on the ewe.

After finishing all this work, Jiang Zhinuan freed his hands to prepare side dishes.

Wash the cucumbers and put them aside for later use. They are ready to be mixed with the peanuts that will be boiled in a while. When the plates arrive, they can be served directly on the table.

The sauced beef and pork head that was marinated yesterday is also taken out of the soup and placed in a wooden basin for later use. It only waits for the plate, and it can be served after cutting.

But this water chicken and beer duck needs to be marinated first.

Last night, my uncle had already killed all the chickens and ducks. She just marinated them with the seasoning bought yesterday and put them aside for later use. Fortunately, Di Qing made more wooden basins in her spare time. It's easy to use.

Aunt Su also helped Xiaobaitiao to deal with it yesterday, throw it in water and wash it again, put the seasoning on it and marinate it in a basin, and wait for it to be fried.

The batter for dry-fried mushrooms is also prepared first. After Di Qing has washed the mushrooms, pour them in and stir them evenly, then put them aside and wait for the oil pan.

The ingredients for Husband and wife lung slices have all been prepared, just waiting to be fried.

I have to wait until the end to make this dish of tofu with scallions. These things took almost seven or eight pots and put them on the floor of the kitchen, and they almost didn't have a foothold.

Jiang Zhinuan went down to Di Qing's woodworking tool room and picked up a basket of small logs, put them in front of the stove for preparation, and waved his big hand at Di Qing: "It's your turn to play!"

"what?"

"Help me set up a shelf in this yard. We have to cook four honey roasted ducks today. The previous shelf was too small and we have to start over."
