Chapter 23 23. Shepherd’s purse is a bit old
By the time Zhao Yang brought the rice, the plate was almost full.
Qinqin finally calmed down. For a moment, she saw that mother and son had not started eating yet, so she embarrassedly took two chopsticks to eat:
“Mom, Zhao Yang, try it, this dish is really good!”
Mother and son also took a bite with laughter——
Hmm! !
Zhao Yang looked at the bottom of the plate, then at his wife, who was obviously still unfinished, and now looked at his mother expectantly: "Shall we buy more tomorrow?"
…
The same situation also happened in another community.
Li Xiufen, who had fashionable red curly hair, served a large bowl of dumplings to her granddaughter: "Yuanyuan, eat quickly! These shepherd's purse dumplings are very fresh! They are as delicious as the ones in the morning."
The daughter-in-law couldn’t laugh or cry when she saw this:
“Mom, I told you, Yuanyuan is a picky eater, she can’t eat if you give her so much.”
He said and put his bowl over: "Come on, Yuanyuan, give whatever you can't finish to mom."
Unexpectedly, the little girl turned her head while holding the bowl and said "Ah woo" all over, while mumbling: "It's delicious! I can eat it!"
Yuanyuan’s mother was stunned.
“Is it so delicious?”
This picky eater has always had a weak spleen and stomach since he was a child. One will not eat, and another will vomit. He is in the senior class of kindergarten, and he is not as strong as the junior class. He is really worried.
But now there are more than a dozen dumplings in her special small bowl! Look at the children taking two or three bites of each dumpling without raising their heads, not to mention how delicious it is!
Being a mother-in-law finally feels a sense of accomplishment. At this moment, she is giving advice: "You guys, money is usually too expensive. This import, that organic... I have been tossing and tossing. Do you think the child is thin?"
"Look again, the wild vegetables in the market this morning cost 20 yuan a pound. I made a soup of watercress and made noodles for Yuanyuan in the morning. She ate a big bowl in one go, and she couldn't bear to leave after sending her to kindergarten. Woolen cloth."
At the entrance of the kindergarten, I said to her: "Grandma, are you still cooking such delicious food at night?"
Ouch!
At that time, Li Xiufen's heart was completely soft.
No, I hurried to the vegetable market, but God blessed me and I managed to grab the last three handfuls of watercress.
Three handfuls of vegetables are now kept in the refrigerator. I grabbed the shepherd's purse in the morning and quickly made dumplings.
Speaking of her own results, Li Xiufen is also quite proud:
“You don’t know, but I was just in time. There was a pair of young people picking vegetables in front of me. They thought twenty yuan a pound was too expensive—”
Li Xiufen let out a disdainful sneer: "I'm not the only one who knows what vegetables to buy, you young people? These fresh and juicy wild vegetables look like they grow well in the wild!"
“Besides, this season, there are all kinds of cucumbers in the supermarket. Cucumbers cost 16 yuan a pound. Do they taste good?”
“You can be considered as grabbing me.”
While talking, no one cheered.
She looked down and saw that her son and daughter-in-law were already holding bowls with almost all the dumplings in them.
The son was still shy: "Mom, are there any more?"
Li Xiufen thought about the silly little boy in the morning again, and became even more angry: Why are they all boys? Their children are so good-looking!
She was annoyed: "With just one pound of shepherd's purse, how many dumplings can you make?"
“Well, let’s buy a few more kilograms tomorrow!” My son was so greedy! After a small bowl of dumplings, my stomach is still empty. Didn't you say there are other dishes in the refrigerator... Li Xiufen was even more angry!
“Eat, eat, eat, you know how to eat! You say buy more, just buy more? Just buy a few kilograms and it’s all gone, so why don’t you worry about money?”
The son is wronged.
Mom, didn’t you just say that twenty yuan is not expensive?
At this moment, Yuanyuan put down the bowl and said, "Grandma, I still want to eat tomorrow!"
The son and daughter-in-law looked at each other and felt that they no longer had any status in the family.
…
Song Tan’s small group of 17 customers was particularly lively tonight.
Girl, when will you still sell wild vegetables? ]
[Boss, can you make a reservation? I want ten pounds of shepherd’s purse]
[Little girl, I’m going to the park to dance in the morning recently. I’ll give you the money first, and can you keep the food for me? ]
Song Tan was in a happy mood and simply replied in unison:
[The weather is cold now, and the wild vegetables haven’t grown yet. We grow them in the mountain valleys without pesticides or fertilizers, so there aren’t that many wild vegetables. Therefore, there will be no reservations for tomorrow and we will not accept reservations.
Tentatively, we have decided to go to the vegetable market at seven o'clock the day after tomorrow. This time it will be us, brother and sister. The next time I sell it, it will be three days later. I have to give the wild vegetables a chance to grow. ]
Then he posted a short video taken while picking wild vegetables today:
There was only sparse green on the mountain. Spring had not yet arrived, but there was a green field of wild vegetables on the hillside, growing wantonly and unrestrainedly.
Beside the pond between the fields, a clump of green appeared suddenly, which was enough to prove that it was indeed a naturally growing wild vegetable.
At this moment, someone in the group spoke:
"Little girl, the wild vegetables here are not expensive. Why are you selling them so expensive? They have to be cheaper. And they are not weighed enough. A handful only costs eight taels, and the taste is average."
Song Tan raised his eyebrows—not enough?
When tied up, they weighed one pound and two ounces. In this weather, the water has not evaporated at all, and the vegetable leaves are fresh and watery, not to mention how tender they are.
She picked out a few handfuls at random when she left in the morning, and the weight remained basically the same.
As for the average taste? Can she not know what she planted?
This is to look down upon her century-old experience in farming.
Moreover, there are only a dozen people in this group, and there are already people who are finding fault?
Song Tan is not used to it.
So she replied politely: "Hello, it's not delicious enough, right? Come over the day after tomorrow and I'll give you a refund."
The boss is so easy to talk to?
After a long time, someone in the group also tried to say: "Actually, I am getting a little old eating that shepherd's purse..."
How many months is it now? Shepherd's purse hasn't grown up yet, how old is it?
However, if there are advantages, don’t take advantage of them.
Song Tan also responded unanimously: "Yes, as long as you feel it tastes bad, I will refund you the day after tomorrow."
Since it tastes bad, don’t eat it in the future.
She sells vegetables and spiritual energy. She wants to make money and be happy. There is no need to deal with this kind of person. After a hundred years of training, Song Tan rarely feels angry anymore - because she usually solves things before she gets angry.
However, some people want to take advantage, while others say fair things:
Do you have any interest in saying this? You don’t know whether the dish is old or not! ]
That is, boss, don’t spoil them, it’s really so unpalatable, if they can, they’ll take the food and return it! ]
Girl, your wild vegetables are very good! The tidying up was also clean. I came back yesterday and spent a long time picking it out, but I didn’t find a few old leaves. It’s not a fraud...]
That’s right, leave what they don’t want to me! ]
Although Song Tan wants to make money, she also wants to live a comfortable life. So she edited the group announcement:
1. Pure ecological and non-polluting wild vegetables, regardless of category, are priced at 20 yuan per catty, and each bundle is 1 catty and 2 taels when sorted. Customers can take it home and weigh it themselves, and return more or make up for less.
2. The wild vegetables are not fresh or old. Please take the uneaten wild vegetables (cooked or raw) to the vegetable market and I will give you a full refund.
3. The farmers produce it themselves, and the output is limited. We will notify the group in advance every time it is sold. Thank you for your support. ]
Tell me what you like to hear... There is a high probability that there will be more today. I am writing.
