Dressed As a Mother-in-law, She Leads the Whole Family To Turn Over

Chapter 28: selling fish



Chapter 28 Selling Fish

  "You drink secretly, don't tell anyone, lest your second sister-in-law get into trouble with you."

Yang Laigui swallowed hard, nodded repeatedly, and drank the whole bowl of fish soup in a few seconds, with endless aftertaste, "Mom, the soup made by the eldest uncle is better than the second uncle's! The fish soup made by the second uncle's wife You can’t even drink it! She even said bad things about my uncle!”

Ms. Zhou quickly covered Yang Laigui's mouth, "Shh! Don't make any noise. If your second uncle hears me, I won't be able to scold her!"

Yang Laigui patted his chest and said with a milky voice: "It doesn't matter, I will protect grandma from now on!"

After hearing this, Mrs. Zhou's heart felt sweeter than drinking honey water.

This was the first time for Yang Datou and others to drink such delicious fish soup. They gathered together and whispered while Jiang Ning was frying melon seeds.

“Brother, I will go to the fish basket with you later. Can we have fish soup tomorrow?” Yang Santie hugged Yang Datou’s waist and acted coquettishly, almost shaking him away.

Yang Datou also wants to drink it. The most important thing is that it costs nothing, but it requires some effort. If you can drink fish soup every day, how wonderful your life will be!

"Let's do this! You and I go to the fish basket, and we will pick up a few sacks of melon seeds. Erdan and Sizhuang will throw adobes at home, and then finish the work in the fields before the sun sets. If there is still any fish basket, Let’s continue to have fish soup at night.”

 Several children had no objection to Yang Datou's arrangement and went about their own business.

Jiang Ning spent the entire afternoon either processing melons or frying melon seeds. He couldn't take care of the children at all. While frying, he babbled to Liu Ye: "We still need to buy a big iron pot at home. Using an earthen pot is too slow. Okay, do you know how much an iron pot costs?"

Liu Ye shook his head, iron pot! It was a big item, and many people would never have the chance to buy it once in their lifetime. How could she know?

Jiang Ning also knows about Liu Ye’s situation, so I’d like to ask.

The two of them were busy until the sun went down. They only fried twenty kilograms of melon seeds in total. She planned to go to the town again tomorrow and inquire about the price of the iron pot.

At this moment, Yang Datou came back with Yang Santie. As soon as they entered the yard, they shouted excitedly, "Mom, come and see, we caught a lot of fish."

Jiang Ning leaned over and Yang Datou explained: "You put it in the stream in the morning. Maybe there were too many earthworms in it and the fish ran in. The biggest one weighed a pound."

Jiang Ning was a little surprised, but the water level where she put the fish basket was deeper, so it was not surprising that there was a big fish weighing one or two kilograms in that piece.

 She nodded and smiled, "I'll make these stews for soup at night, and I'll send the others to town early tomorrow morning to see if they can be sold."

This time there are more than a dozen rock crawlers alone. It is not a problem for them to eat two or three fish each. Naturally, they will not worry about the big fish that can be sold for money.

Yang Datou said: "Auntie, we just put the fish basket into the ditch. I will pick up the fish basket early tomorrow morning."

Jiang Ning nodded slightly, "You can take care of it yourself. Just don't forget about the work in the fields. I'll go to town tomorrow."

“Then I’ll go to the fields in the morning and come back to make clothes when the sun comes up.” Willow Ye quickly told her her plan.

Yang Erdan shouted: "Then I will continue to smash adobe bricks and try to live in the house as soon as possible."

Yang Santie and Yang Sizhuang decided to pick up pumpkin seeds. Only Yang Xiaoya was left. “Then I’ll go pick up pumpkin seeds too!”

 Everyone laughed when they saw her clenching her fists.

As soon as the fish soup came out of the pot, Yang Han happened to lead Yang Xiaohua over. He stood outside the fence and refused to go in. However, when Yang Xiaohua saw Yang Xiaoya, she immediately ran over. The two children held hands and jumped up and down. Not to mention how happy I am.

Yang Han took out a sling of copper coins from his arms and handed it to Yang Datou, "The snake has been sold, and I'm here to give you money. Here are three hundred coins. Count them." "So many!" Yang Datou was a little surprised. Neither dared to answer.

Yang Han explained: "Snakes are not easy to catch. There are not many snake catchers in our town, and there are many traders in the past, so the price will be higher. If you catch another snake in the future, just come to me. Don't you dare deal with me." manage."

Yang Datou expressed his gratitude continuously, "Uncle Han, come in and sit down. My mother-in-law just made fish soup. Have a bowl before leaving."

Yang Han shook his head repeatedly and looked at Yang Xiaohua, only to find that Yang Xiaohua was already sitting with Yang Xiaoya, drinking fish soup happily. He immediately blushed and scolded in embarrassment: "Girl! How can you eat other people casually? Home stuff!”

Jiang Ning advised a little stiffly: "It's just a bowl of soup."

As she spoke, she filled another bowl, put two fish in it, put the fish soup into the basket and handed it to Yang Xiaohua, "Take it back and drink it slowly. Just give the bowl to Datou tomorrow morning."

Yang Xiaohua didn’t dare to take it.

Yang Datou went directly to pick up the basket and handed it to Yang Han, "Thanks to my uncle for helping me today, this is the fish my mother and I caught in the stream. It will replenish Xiaohua's health, so don't refuse!"

Yang Han saw Yang Xiaohua looking at the basket eagerly and showing disrespect, so he had to put it away.

After the father and daughter returned home, Yang Xiaohua immediately shouted for fish soup, "Dad, the fish soup made by my aunt is really delicious! I just drank a bowl, please try it quickly."

 It was obvious that he wanted to eat it, and he said it so euphemistically.

Yang Han felt funny and opened the basket. He had to say that the fish soup tasted really good.

Seeing that Yang Xiaohua’s eyes were narrowed after drinking, he also took a sip and nodded repeatedly, “I didn’t expect Big Tou’s mother to have such skills!”

Yang Xiaohua said excitedly: "Dad, please help Xiaoya and his family more in the future, so that Auntie can often make delicious food for me."

Yang Han suddenly couldn’t laugh or cry.

The next day before dawn, Jiang Ning got up to pack his things. The melons and fenugreek that he had dried before were almost 20 kilograms, and the melon seeds fried yesterday were about 20 kilograms. Together with the fish, if he was lucky, he could get another two kilograms. About a hundred words.

But she couldn't carry so many things to the town alone. It would be nice if she could catch a passing ox cart.

Yang Datou was obviously aware of this problem. He hurried out early and helped Jiang Ning carry the car all the way. Fortunately, he met a caravan on the way to Dashan Town. Jiang Ning spent two pennies to finally get on the carriage, and Yang Datou felt relieved to go back. .

The carriage brought Jiang Ning to the entrance of Hong'an Hall. She first sold twenty kilograms of melons and then went to the grocery store to deliver melon seeds. The shopkeeper saw that she was so enthusiastic that she took all the twenty kilograms. She was very happy to give the money. Jiang Ning brought the fish over and asked a few more questions, "If you want to sell fish, you have to go to an inn or restaurant. If they don't accept it, try it at a restaurant. The price offered by the inn and restaurant will be higher."

Jiang Ning thanked him and immediately went to Dashan Inn.

Shopkeeper Jin thought she was here to deliver mushrooms, but unexpectedly she was here to sell fish. Disappointment instantly appeared on her face.

Jiang Ning was amused, "Shopkeeper Jin, the weather has been hot these days, it hasn't rained, and there are few mushrooms. If it rains, I will definitely deliver the goods to you."

Shopkeeper Jin's expression finally relaxed and he looked at Jiang Ning's fish.
