Blissful Days After Widowhood

Unloading the burden, while looking at the various things she bought, she asked, "What do you want to eat, mother? Let me show you a hand."

Gu Yin is best at cooking porridge and soup, and other dim sum dishes are also very good.

Seeing her calm demeanor, Wang Shi's heart dropped halfway.

She looked at the thing in her hand, gritted her teeth, closed her eyes, and ruthlessly, shoved it into Gu Yin's hand: "Do whatever you want, you can use it!"

Seeing Wang Shi's appearance as if he was dying, Gu Yin smiled and nodded in response, turned around and entered the kitchen room.

Wang bought a lot of food, most of which was flour, a large bag, then a small bag of rice, a small piece of pork the size of a palm, two small fish, a small basket of eggs and green onions Ginger those.

Gu Yin decided to make fish ravioli.

She took out a large pot and kneaded the dough, kneaded it into a smooth dough, put the large pot aside and covered it with a dry cloth to wake up the noodles, and then first put the large pieces of fish meat with fewer fish bones into the whole piece Slice the ground down, chop it up, chop it into fish sauce, fry the remaining fish bones and fish heads on a low fire for a while and add water to make soup.

The prepared fillings are smeared into the wonton wrappers, and it is a small "yuanbao" when you pinch it.

On Wang's side, she said she was going to pack up. In fact, she put her luggage in the main room, but she couldn't worry about folding it back and peeking at the crack of the window.

Xiao Wuan saw his mother's strange behavior, and squatted with her to look in.

Two people, one big and one small, met head-to-head and saw that Gu Yin's movements were as skilled and swift as running clouds and water, Wang Shi finally calmed down, and Xiao Wu'an sniffed the taste of the fish soup and drooled. One side looked at Gu Yin with glowing eyes.

"Mother, my sister-in-law is amazing, she looks so good." Xiao Wu'an whispered while sucking her saliva.

Wang shi laughed, "How old are you, you know what looks good and what is not?"

Xiao Wu'an naturally didn't look at Gu Yin with the eyes of men appreciating women, and smiled shyly: "I just think that my sister-in-law is very serious when she cooks, and it seems to shine!"

Gu Yin's expression is focused and serious, and she exudes a kind of confidence in her chest, which really seems to have changed her personality.

"You brag about it before you eat it!" Mr. Wang laughed and scolded in a low voice.

Gu Yin of course knew that Wang was looking at her, so she didn't break it, she just snickered while doing the work in her hands.

Put the wrapped wontons into the boiling fish soup, and after a while, they float up.

Wang hurriedly pulled Xiao Wuan back, pretending to be far away from the kitchen and shouting, "Come here!"

It increases appetite.

Wang, who watched the whole process, asked, "What is this for?"

"It's a fish ravioli." Gu Yin also answered cooperatively.

Wang was also trying to save money, so he bought two less valuable fish after buying pork.

When they were talking, Xiao Wuan had already eaten it, and before a wonton could taste the taste, she exhaled the heat and said it was delicious!

Wang ate a lot of good things when she was young, but when she entered a wonton, her eyes widened in surprise - it's not that the younger son is ignorant, it's that this wonton is really delicious!

The wonton skin as thin as a cicada's wings melts in the mouth, the filling inside is salty, fragrant and tender, the fish is not fishy, ​​but it adds deliciousness to the pork. Not to mention the fish soup, it's so fresh that people can't wait to swallow their tongues!

It's even better than the one made by the white master of the big restaurant that her parents took her to eat when she was a child!

Gu Yin looked at their appearance, one big and one small, and suddenly remembered what her grandfather had said to her in her previous life.

Grandpa said: "Girl, you are the most talented of the generations in our family, the recipes are in your hands without being taught, you can make similar things according to them. You Although Dad was detained in the kitchen by me when he was a child, he was far less talented than you. Until he passed away, it was not as good as your learning for so many years. But grandpa has to say, you are too crafty in cooking. I hope You can actually make food that makes people feel happy someday."

Gu Yin grew up in a culinary home, and she really started to learn cooking after her parents passed away. Knowing that she will inherit her grandfather's mantle in the future, she spends the winter and summer vacations in the kitchen every year as if she had completed a task. After graduation, she practiced in the kitchen day and night for several years.

Cooking is not difficult in her opinion, as long as you memorize the recipe, write down the characteristics of each ingredient, the required cooking time and the amount of seasoning, and follow the instructions, the effect will be It won't be much worse.

As for the "food that makes people happy" that grandpa said, she always thought that it only existed in novels and TV series.

But at this time, seeing Wang Shi and Xiao Wu'an's frowning eyes, Gu Yin only felt a soft heart, and suddenly seemed to understand something.

After the wind was blowing and the clouds were over, Wang Shi contentedly touched his belly and said excitedly: "Son, you really didn't lie, it's really violent not to do business with this craft... What's the violence, anyway, it's a pity Oh! Well, the old immortal in your dream didn't tell you anything about it? For example, where is the treasure buried?"

Gu Yin felt helpless for a while, "No, the immortals only taught me the craft. Mother, it is better to teach a man to fish than to teach him a fish, and a lot of wealth will be eaten by the mountains. ."

Wang shi also thinks about it, if the ancestors really gave a large amount of money directly, the troops outside are in chaos, and the orphans, widows and mothers can't keep it!

"It was my fault, but it would be great to have this skill!"

"Actually, what I'm best at is cooking porridge. Would you like to try it, mother?"

Wang shi no longer distrusted her, but after thinking about it, she still said: "You can't chew too much. Let's try the wontons first. If the sales are good, let's do other things."

Wang's remarks are exactly in line with the idea of ​​trial opening of new stores in later generations, and it is true that for each additional type, the corresponding cost will increase, so Gu Yin did not say more, anyway, as long as the ravioli It sells well, and you can completely let go of your hands and feet in the future.

After that, the Wang family went out to buy things.

Xiao Wuan was still licking the bottom of the bowl, Gu Yin felt distressed and asked him if he wanted another bowl.

When he was growing up, a bowl of wontons was enough, but he could still eat it.

But just now he heard his mother and sister-in-law mean that the wontons are going to be sold for money, so he immediately shook his head and said no.

Gu Yin felt distressed when he saw how greedy and obedient he was, and scooped out a bowl of fish soup for him to drink.

Xiao Wu'an took a small mouthful of the soup bowl and drank it very cherishly.

Half an hour later, Mrs Wang also came back from outside.

She bought the ingredients she needed and put them home, then knocked on the door next door and called Xu's name.

Hearing Mrs Wang's loud voice, she thought it was Mrs Wang's gift to bring food to herself, but she happily opened the door and saw Mrs Wang empty-handed.

Wang did not quarrel with her this time, and asked her in a good voice: "My family wants to do a small business of food. It's just that I haven't come back for many years, and I have no time to craft. I don't know. Now, I have to ask you about the situation."

"You can still do business with your craftsmanship?" Xu sneered, but she was in a good mood when she saw Wang's low-pitched appearance, and continued: "I only know the flow of people at the wharf. Big, many small vendors are there."

Wang nods again and again, and asks him, "Are you going to buy ready-made or custom-made utensils for setting up the stall?"

Xu said: "You really think I know everything? Why don't you go to the town and ask?!"

Seeing her, I really don't know, Wang Shi also took a good face, and said with his arms on his hips: "I don't know what you are doing?!"

"You bastard, I kindly made fried rice cakes for you. You don't want to send some of the delicious ones. Come up and scold you, right?"

In the evening, Mr. Wang picked up a set of utensils for setting up the stall from outside.

It was expensive, and there were also low tables, benches, pots and pans, all of which cost her twenty taels of silver.

Of course, there are other products that are cheaper, but firstly, the other products are not so complete and upright, and secondly, this is the Laozi number in the town. The owner declares that as long as it is his home, It can be sold at a discount when it is no longer needed. This is more fair than others.

Gu Yin saw that she was busy outside all day, carrying a burden and sweating all over, so she quickly poured water for her, and then wringed her sweat towel to wipe her face.

"Mother should let me go with you, it's not good to keep you busy all the time."

Wang thumped a large mouthful of hot water, "The doctor said that you don't know about recuperation? Just stay at home. Besides, if this business is done, there will be times when you are busy in the future. It's just a day and a half to spare."

Gu Yin did not persuade her any further, and went into the kitchen to do the preparatory work.

In the early morning of the next day, Gu Yin's wonton stall was placed on the wharf in Hanshan Town.
