Chapter 23 Fish Dumplings
Mrs. Gan made the lunch, and she was not as satisfying as Yunduo's cooking. Mrs. Liu picked on the food while eating, "I knew she was lazy, and she was lazy and didn't work!"

"Yun Duo is busy tomorrow to be a fisherman." Afraid of misunderstanding, Mrs. Zhang explained.

Mrs. Liu didn't listen to her explanation, Yun Duo was lazy if he didn't cook!
In the afternoon, Yunduo didn't even go down to the ground, mended the fishing net at home, and prepared something for selling fish tomorrow.

Two wooden barrels, washed and cleaned, rags, chopsticks, spoons, and all the side dishes used.

Because the work in the field cannot be delayed, Gan decided that she would sell it and push out the family wheelbarrow.

Yun Duo fetched water, cleaned the inside and outside of the wheelbarrow, and then went fishing with old man Nie and Dalang Nie in Qinghu Lake.

Gan was worried, and followed him out with a bucket.

They changed several places, first cast the slag of the cornbread, and then cast the net. By the evening, they had cast sixteen fish, some big and some small.

In the evening, Yun Duo made vegetable pancakes with noodles and a pot of wild vegetables.

Usually, they don't eat wild vegetables. Even if they borrow a place at home, the vegetables they still have are all grown by themselves, so they can eat whatever they want.Unexpectedly, this wild vegetable is also very crisp and delicious.

The next day, Yun Duo didn't go to the ground and was cooking fish at home.

Mrs. Liu didn't want to go either, and was driven to the field by Mrs. Gan.

Even Mrs. Liu couldn't help getting down from the kang to look at it. When she saw the red water that Yunduo poured out when marinating fish, she immediately thought, "Is this something that can make fish smell better?"

"Hmm! No one else has this thing, so they can't cook fish that is delicious and not fishy!" Yun Duo nodded.

Nie Dalang paid attention to Liu Shi from the corner of his eyes, saw her eyes flickering, coughed lightly, and filled the pot with firewood.

Mrs. Liu sat in the kitchen and watched.

Yun Duo was in charge of the cooking, and Gan's assisted, made two small pots full, kept a small pot for himself, and put the rest in a clean wooden barrel.

Gan made her lunch and put it in a pot, and asked old man Nie to watch at home, then pushed the wheelbarrow, and went out with Yun Duo.

Nie Dalang also wanted to go with him, but Yun Duo asked him to stay at home, "...it's noon now, and you'll get heat stroke again later."

Seeing the two of them going out with the cart, Nie Dalang had no choice but to stay at home, and went back to his room with the bamboo tube containing the fishy medicine.

Liu looked at it twice, thoughtfully.

Master Fan took a sip, raised his eyebrows, and his eyes lit up. After eating a few slices, he took out a handkerchief to wipe his mouth, and kept nodding, "How do you cook this fish? It's not fishy, ​​and it's so delicious. .”

"Because the fish is very clean and made with a secret recipe, so there is no fishy smell." Yun Duo explained with a smile, his eyes flashed with anticipation, hoping that Master Fan would buy more.

When Mr. Fan heard that she said to use the secret recipe, he just smiled and stopped asking, and asked his family members to bring them some pots and money.

Looking at the pot and a string of money, Gan's face turned into a chrysanthemum with a smile.

Ten spoons, a basin full, twenty Wen.

When Gan pushed his wheelbarrow out of the village, he was still laughing.

Because it is tasted before buying, people who eat in the field will stutter and secrete when they smell the fragrance and taste it. Those who have money will spend two yuan to add a bowl of vegetables. After all, pork is more than 20 yuan a catty. Usually not willing to eat.

When we arrived at the next village, it was time for lunch, and Gan said to everyone he met, "Master Fan from Fan Ju's family said it was delicious just now. I bought a big pot! If you don't believe me, you can taste it yourself." taste."

Fan Juren is well-known in ten miles and eight villages, because he is a good student, and he passed the Juren examination before he was 30 years old. It is said that he is still studying, and he will also take the Jinshi examination and become an official in the future.

After hearing this, everyone became more curious, because they were not from the same village, so they were embarrassed not to buy it for nothing, and the price was indeed not expensive, so there were quite a few people who bought it.

By the time the two left a village, one barrel had already been sold out.

Gan Shi was tired and smiled while wiping off his sweat. Seeing that it was past noon, he hurried to the next village.After visiting two more villages, the two barrels of boiled fish were all sold out.

By the time we got home, it was already noon, and old man Nie waited anxiously. When he saw the two of them coming back, he lifted the lid of the bucket and opened his eyes wide, "All sold out?"

Gan smiled from ear to ear, "It's all sold out! It's all sold out!" After entering the house, he closed the door, took out his money bag and started counting the money.

"Ah! You sold so much in one trip!?" Liu was surprised.

Old man Nie's eyes were also bright, and he reached out to grab it.

Gan Shihu patted him on the face and counted, "170 Liuwen!"

Mrs. Liu took a deep breath, and sold nearly two hundred Wen a day, and five or six thousand was just one tael of silver!She looked at Yun Duo in disbelief.This is simply... the money came too fast!

Mrs. Gan was overjoyed, "If this goes on, we will sell the bean sprouts after the farming season is over, and we can earn some money a year ago, so we can call Erlang Saburo a daughter-in-law!" He called her over and gave her two pennies, "You came up with this boiled fish. You can use the two pennies to buy candy."

Yun Duo accepted it bluntly.

Seeing Liu's watching, Mrs. Gan said, "There are still a lot of places to spend money at home!" Then he collected all the money.

"I haven't eaten dumplings for a long time. I don't know how many times I can eat this old bone!" Old man Nie pulled his face and said dissatisfied.

Yun Duo laughed and said, "Grandpa! Let's make dumplings filled with fish and meat tomorrow night! You need to mix some fat meat into them, it will taste delicious."

Gan thought for a while, then nodded in agreement.

When the family came back in the evening, they all stretched their necks to inquire how much it sold, and they all took a breath when they heard that it was sold for 170 Liuwen on the first day.

"Good boy! Selling so much in a day, it will take years and months to sell, how much money can our family make!" Nie Sangui swallowed while talking.

"Then what about the money?" Liu's main concern is money.

Gan sees that the whole family cares about them, and knows that earning money is the most important thing. "All the money I earn is kept with me. Erlang and Sanlang at home are not small enough to talk about kissing. The third daughter-in-law is about to give birth. It's cold and Dalang Taking medicine when you are sick is all about spending money, this amount of money is not enough, we have to work harder to live a better life."
