Chapter 19 19. Wild vegetables are on sale
Ulan just ate one bowl and was full, but not completely full.
But according to the family’s appetite, they would definitely be full tonight, so she refused: “I’ll eat the dumplings tomorrow morning. Come on, let’s try today’s wild vegetables first!”
She took Malantou, purslane and watercress to save trouble and purely to test the taste, so she mixed the same ingredients after blanching them.
At this moment, red chili peppers, white sesame seeds, dark brown soy sauce and vinegar are intertwined with green young leaves and stems, and a sour and spicy fragrance comes to your face.
Song Sancheng didn’t hesitate at that moment, he quickly picked up the chopsticks and put it into his mouth—
“Hmm!”
Tasty, spicy, sour, crispy and tender...the various tastes are intertwined. Song Sancheng can't stop eating, and he can pick up half the plate of vegetables with just one chopstick.
That's right...
“This is too appetizing. I wish I could have cooked a pot of rice.” He was extremely regretful.
Ulan looked at his belly: "Don't eat it, don't eat it, I'm not afraid of bursting - I'll give it a try!"
At this taste, the whole family fell silent.
After half the payment, Ulan asked hesitantly: "Isn't this ten yuan a bargain?"
Song Tan made a quick decision: “It’s a cheap sale—listen to me, it’s 20 yuan a bundle!” If you go to sell it in the morning, don’t be afraid if you can’t sell it. The repeat customers who had dinner at noon will definitely come again!
Nowadays, making money is important!
Ulan instantly regretted it: "If I had known I would only smoke a few of each to try!"
…
Early the next morning.
It was really early in the morning, Song Tan was woken up at 5:30. Song Sancheng planned to carry the vegetables, but found that his daughter had a basket in each hand, and Qiao Qiao held another basket, and seventy or eighty bundles of wild vegetables were getting on the car. .
“You really don’t need me to follow you?”
"No, there's Qiao Qiao here. Qiao Qiao can help, right?" Song Tan rejected him.
Qiaoqiao from the side agreed loudly: "Yes! Just having Qiaoqiao is enough!"
Song Sancheng stood there with his hands stretched out blankly, suddenly feeling sad that he was "old".
Until Ulan called him again: "There are some dumplings left in the pot, do you want to eat them?"
“Eat!” He threw away the sudden sadness in an instant.
…
Uncle Wang who drove the van was an acquaintance in the village. He was looking at the road and asked curiously: "Tan Tan, are you going to the city to sell vegetables?"
Song Tan nodded: "Yes, it's cold now, so it's time to eat something fresh. It doesn't take much trouble to take it back and eat it yourself if it's not sold out."
This is true.
Uncle Wang nodded: "It's good. How can young people these days be willing to endure such hardship? Your parents are really lucky!"
The two parties were busy touting their business, and it was not yet seven o'clock when the car stopped at the edge of the famous vegetable market in the old city.
It is said that it is a vegetable market, but it has not been formally planned. It is just next to the river and connected in all directions. Everyone has a tacit understanding to sell things here with loaders and carts.
Song Tan didn’t even need to pay any stall fees. He placed the baskets in front of him one by one, and then took out two small folding stools and a stack of plastic bags. This was considered complete.
“Sister, I’ll sell it!”
Jojo can’t wait any longer.
Song Tan quickly gave him the C position: "Okay, sell Qiao Qiao - do you know how much it will cost?"
"Know!"
Qiaoqiao geared up: "Twenty yuan a bundle, no counter-offer!"
Just know this.
Song Tan thought for a while and pasted the two QR codes printed at the village department yesterday - one payment code.
And another one: New announcement group for wild vegetables, scan the QR code to join, fresh wild vegetables, advance notice.
She dared to swear on her cultivation career that anyone who ate her wild vegetables today would definitely become a repeat customer.
…
Today the weather is not bad. Although the sun has not risen at seven o'clock, the morning glow can already be seen faintly on the horizon. The vegetable market is coming and going, and there are many housewives wearing coral velvet pajamas or old down jackets.
The two siblings sat obediently on the pony. They looked similar, with bright black pupils and white skin. They were beautiful and cheerful, and they had the most kind-hearted appearance.
Those who came and went to buy groceries couldn't help but cast their eyes over it.
Looking at the basket in front of me again - oh, what kind of day is this? There are such fresh and tender wild vegetables, and they are all neatly packed!
“Girl, how do you sell these shepherd’s purses?”
Green vegetables during the Chinese New Year are extremely expensive, and coupled with the constant flow of entertaining guests, when everyone sees shepherd’s purse, they first think of fresh and tender dumplings.
As soon as the aunt asked, she seemed to have started, and people slowly gathered around her.
"I know, I know! Shepherd's purse, 20 yuan a bundle, a pound!"
Qiaoqiao couldn’t wait to answer.
He sat on the bench and raised his head slightly to look at the aunt in front of him. She was well-behaved and cute, with a round and hairy head. No old aunt could resist.
not to mention…
The tone of words spoken by adults is different from that of children.
The aunt who asked the question looked at him in surprise, as if she noticed something. But seeing Qiao Qiao still staring at her persistently, she frowned tentatively:
“This is too expensive. Can I sell it for ten yuan?”
“No, no, no,” Qiao Qiao shook her head like a rattle and emphasized again: “Shepherd’s purse dumplings, I ate three bowls in the morning!”
He used his hand to make a sign of three.
Song Tan also laughed: "Yes, Auntie, I dug these freshly yesterday. They taste very fresh and tender. Twenty yuan is really not expensive."
“And this bundle weighs a pound, and there is only more and no less. How expensive are greenhouse vegetables now! Spring is here, let’s take a bite of fresh wild vegetables early, which is refreshing and refreshing.”
He pointed to the QR code next to him again: "If you are worried, just scan the code and join the group. If it doesn't taste good, just contact me on WeChat and I will give you a refund."
This was said with great confidence, and the aunt in front of her made an instant decision.
Just in the basket in front of you, there are too many choices!
Which one should I buy?
She was confused.
However, after the aunt hesitated for a moment, Qiaoqiao drooped her eyebrows and looked up at her pitifully:
“Auntie, don’t you want to buy it? Qiaoqiao dug it!”
Auntie’s heart melted, and everyone present saw the problem, and immediately agreed: “Buy it!”
“But Auntie doesn’t know which one to buy, what should I do?”
Qiaoqiao blinked blankly: "Then just take a bite!" Sometimes it would be so painful for him to buy snacks.
"Ouch!" A group of people in front of the stall laughed happily: "You kid, you are so greedy. These are twenty yuan a handful, so you can buy them for a hundred yuan each time."
Qiaoqiao was not convinced: "Qiaoqiao has been eating for two days."
“Shepherd’s purse, make dumplings.”
“Wild onions, stewed crucian carp, scrambled eggs!”
“马…马…” He forgot the name.
Song Tan quickly touched his head: "Qiaoqiao is awesome!"
Then he picked up the vegetables with quick hands and feet and showed them to everyone: "Malantou can be used for stir-fried meat or cold salad, watercress is also fresh and tender, and purslane can clear away heat and relieve fire..."
“Our wild vegetables, I guarantee you’ll want to eat them again after eating them once.”
She took out the vegetables over and over for everyone to see. They were fresh and tender, with green leaves and no damage at all.
In addition, there are experts in buying vegetables around, so you can tell that this girl is not short of money when you pick it up with your hands - twenty yuan a pound is a wild vegetable dug freshly in the village, so it is not expensive at all.
Everyone became more and more excited as they looked at it, and then looked at the greenhouse vegetables in their hands—
“Here, give me two pounds of shepherd’s purse. My son likes to eat dumplings!”
“I want two kilograms too—and a handful of those wild onions, oh, they’re so wild, they taste so strong! I haven’t eaten them in more than ten years!”
“I want it too! Give me some purslane. This stuff is anti-inflammatory and diuretic...”
“It’s better if Malan gets angry. I want this. Give me two bundles—I want shepherd’s purse too!”
“Watercress! Watercress is too tender. I want three handfuls. Give one to my daughter!”
