Chapter 66 66. The stubborn man Zhang Yanping
When Wu Lan said this, Zhang Yanping immediately became energetic: "Auntie, I will wash the vegetables for you."
Song Tan glanced at Zhang Yanping with a half-smile:
“Mom, my aunt said that if my cousin doesn’t work, he’s not allowed to eat.”
"Nonsense." Wu Lan glared at her: "Yan Ping finally came here, how can he do this?"
Song Tan turned around and saw Zhang Yanping raising his eyebrows with a proud smile.
She wasn’t angry either, she just changed her words:
“Well, Mom, you’re tired too. I’ll just fry some minced meat with milkvetch chili for dinner.”
“Let’s stew the stuffed pot of meat that we packed up earlier and give it to Brother Yanping. Otherwise, if he comes here just to play, it would be inappropriate for us not to make a meat dish.”
“But…” Ulan was a little hesitant—no one would like to eat this stew unless they put some stuff from their fields in it!
Because of those purple milk vetches, the whole family is now on the verge of becoming Buddhists.
But after a day of work, she was indeed tired, and finally let go of the kitchen.
Zhang Yanping looked left and right, always feeling that something was not right, but couldn't find any evidence. At this moment, he was very nervous.
As expected, Song Tan went into the kitchen to cook.
Her cooking skills are quite average and she can cook well.
At this moment, under Wulan's guidance, he stewed the meat with radish in a serious pot, then washed and chopped the milkvetch, patted a few cloves of garlic, cut a few peppers, and then heated the pan to burn lard.
When the whole kitchen is fragrant, add the chili pepper and minced garlic and stir-fry for a while, followed by the minced meat, and finally add the milkvetch.
Just add some salt, and the refreshing fragrance will come to your face.
Zhang Yanping walked to the door of the kitchen and smelled the meaty aroma of the stuffed pot of meat, as well as the rich fragrance of milkvetch. He suddenly came to his senses:
OK!
Just ask: Why did my aunt specially send a few handfuls of milkvetch to my house? It turns out this dish is really amazing!
His nose is so naughty, he can tell which one tastes better when he smells it.
So he served the rice diligently, and then said to Ulan with an moved face: "Auntie, uncle, you have worked really hard today. Come on, eat more meat!"
However, he was faster, and Song Tan was even faster. Now he was holding the plate and pulling it directly towards the rice bowls of a family of four, and 99% of the milkvetch was divided cleanly.
There was only a small spoonful of food left on the plate, and it was finally given to Zhang Yanping.
She smiled kindly at her cousin: "Brother Yanping, it's so rare for me to come here, why do you have the nerve to ask you to eat wild vegetables? This is stewed meat fried by my mother herself. It was stewed today. Do you want to try it? Is it particularly fragrant? "
The plain rice, with a small ball of green vegetables on top, looks particularly cold.
Zhang Yanping raised his head to look at her, and the eyes of the two siblings were invisibly locked in a confrontation.
But the work is done, and the meat smells good. Zhang Yanping can only chuckle in his heart:
Little girl movie, I am naughty, but I am not greedy for that. I will live and die for a piece of green vegetables!
He took a mouthful of rice and stuffed it directly into his mouth along with the milkvetch——
After a while.
Zhang Yanping looked at the people eating with gusto at the dinner table, then looked at the large pieces of meat in his bowl, and shed sad tears at this moment:
Horse, why are vegetables so delicious? !
…
The meal was finally finished without Zhang Yanping being able to swallow it.
He took the initiative to clear the dishes with a heartache. He originally wanted to show off in front of his aunt, hoping that she would be able to live up to her expectations and take over the power of the kitchen tomorrow.
Auntie was really furious.
How could she not know what her son was eating?
Passionate and picky, but basically what is eaten, her sister's craftsmanship is much better than herself, but this child made this strange look at the aunt's house!
Obviously he was complaining that they sent him to the countryside!
The couple murmured together for a while, feeling that Zhang Yanping's behavior was precisely because going to the countryside was a useful punishment for him!
So he became more and more enthusiastic and called Ulan directly:
"Lan, I asked Yan Ping to go to the countryside just to train him. Don't be reluctant to use it! Let him do everything from digging tea hills and plowing the fields. How can he be exhausted as a young man?"
The two sisters exchanged greetings. Zhang Yanping looked at his aunt's face that looked at her thoughtfully, and felt that the future life would not be good.
But he is really not good at working. His hands are the hands of the Supreme Star, and there is no way he can pick up a hoe!
So he came close to Song Tan:
“Tantan, what do you think of the golden cherry blossoms I mentioned today?”
Song Tan had already made a detailed investigation of the various states and growth environments of the golden cherry tree, as well as its thorns. He was settling accounts at the moment, and nodded after hearing this.
“It’s very good, brother Yanping. It’s just because of your golden cherry blossoms that I gave you a bunch of vegetables tonight.”
Zhang Yanping:…
Good guy, it’s better not to give it!
After taking one bite, it was gone, and then it was almost impossible to swallow. The food was tasteless!
He sat a little closer again, and just as he was about to speak, he accidentally saw Song Tan transferring money to the person who noted that he was "Express Hua Ge".
This transfer was not much, only more than 60 yuan was transferred.
Looking at the ledger again, there are two courier charges that add up to a thousand and a half!
He was shocked: "What did you buy? The express delivery fee is so expensive, why don't you use logistics?"
Song Tan also sighed: "It's just the milkvetch you eat. There are many people in Ningcheng who want it, and the things can't be stored well, so they might as well just leave.
She first sent express delivery and transferred 500 to her brother.
But after sending overweight items several times, the money has been almost consumed.
This time, another thousand yuan was transferred in advance for the express delivery. Unexpectedly, it was not enough, and I had to make up more than 60 yuan.
Actually, the order was only over fifty, and the courier guy quickly discounted it by 30%, and also gave me the lowest price for the packaging fee. Logically speaking, I don’t have that much money.
However, the first weight of fresh food is 24, and ice packs are extra. Many people in those orders purchased items weighing ten, eight, or five pounds, all of which were overweight.
Doesn’t this mean we have to make up the money?
Fortunately, Song Tan made it clear in advance that the postage was included in the transfer.
The calculation she is making now is to return the excess money one by one based on each person's postage.
Zhang Yanping was shocked—these dishes were shipped by ice, so was it the food or the courier fee?
But then I thought about it: good things are indeed like this, no matter how expensive the freight is, there are still people who are willing to do it. Just like buying fruit at home.
He remembered the key point he had come up with, and now he shook off the milk vetch and the courier fee, and asked with a smile:
“Then…since you think golden cherry is qualified, have you found a nursery that grows it?”
Brother Yan Ping has great channels! Every bowl of rice is not free.
Thank you all for subscribing, tipping, voting and commenting for support. There is a high probability that there will be tens of thousands more tomorrow!
However, because I am going back to my hometown, the update time may be longer.
Half of July, the Hungry Ghost Festival, don’t pick up money today and tomorrow, and don’t stay out late at night!
