Chapter 39 Learning to cook

“You want to go to Songxi Town to set up a stall?” Yang Han was a little surprised.

Yang Datou nodded, "Songxi Town has a port, which is more lively than ours. Not to mention during the day, there are people coming in and out even late at night. I want to try setting up a stall. If I can make money, I don't have to." After working so hard, my family will be able to build a house after the autumn harvest.”

When Yang Han heard this, he seemed to be thinking of himself, sighed and said: "It's okay if you want to set up a stall, but you should have seen it this time. There are quite a few stalls there. You are not a local, and the business is very good. It’s easy to get squeezed, and if the business is not good, all this time will be spent on field work. Is it worth it?”

Yang Datou couldn't help but feel a little discouraged.

Yang Han said thoughtfully: "But if your grandma's cooking skills are really that good, you can learn from her. I think the shopkeeper of Linjiang Inn would be very willing to have a good chef."

“Is this really okay?” Yang Datou’s eyes finally became a little brighter.

Yang Han smiled and nodded. Seeing that Yang Datou regained his composure, he said, "Go and take a look at the fish basket you set."

Yang Datou was immediately diverted. The fish basket had been there for two days. Not to mention, there was something in it, especially the thing that he and Jiang Ning were afraid of, which made him feel numb.

Yang Han laughed loudly, "I won't be polite to you anymore. I'll give you the money later."

When the two returned to Rongshu Village, a group of children turned pale when Jiang Ning did not come back. Yang Sizhuang said anxiously: "Brother, have you lost my mother?"

"No, no, there is a shopkeeper who asked grandma for help and asked her to help with cooking. It's just for one day. Grandma should be back tomorrow. I'll go check it out at noon tomorrow. If not, I'll go there in the evening. If there's no chance, I'll go there the next day. That's about it." Yang Datou estimated that the man wouldn't have to lie down for two days even if he had a stomachache.

Everyone felt relieved when they saw that Yang Datou was steadfast in his oath.

Yang Datou and Liu Ye whispered: "This time, Aniang went to Songxi Town to help people with cooking, plus selling melon seeds, she earned a total of three hundred cash."

"So much!" Liu Ye was a little surprised. According to the previous estimate, the price shouldn't be so high.

Yang Datou explained, and Liu Ye sighed: "I didn't expect A Niang to be so powerful now. She can stand up to ten men by herself!"

“Zi Zi, I want to learn cooking from my mother-in-law, do you think it’s possible?” Yang Datou thought about it for a long time, and the more he thought about it, the stronger the idea became.

Liu Ye was stunned and nodded with a smile, "If you want to, just go and learn. I heard that learning to cook is very hard. Not only do you have to learn to cut vegetables, but you also have to learn to carve and control the heat. It takes a lot of effort! But I am I’ve heard about it, but I don’t know what’s going on. You can talk to me about it when she comes back. If our family can have a chef, we won’t have to worry about it in the future!”

These days, people with skills don't have a hard time, but ordinary people don't have access. It's difficult to learn skills. They usually have to start as apprentices. People may not really teach them skills. They all rely on stealing teachers and understanding. Yang Datou has such good resources. If he can study hard, he will be much better than others.

Yang Datou received Liu Ye's support, and his heavy heart suddenly relaxed a lot, "Fry some more melon seeds, fry more, I will pick up my mother early tomorrow morning, and sell the melon seeds by the way."

Originally, he wanted to wait on the Weijiang River, but now it seems that it is better to make another trip in person. The fishing boat should be used to it if it is dizzy!

Liuye didn't dare to delay when he heard about it. He immediately mobilized the whole family and ran to the mountains at night, trying to get dozens more kilograms of trichosanthes. Jiang Ning never left the kitchen from morning until dark.

Finally, the shopkeeper finally put up a sign saying he would stop serving food.

Jiang Ning complained while filling the water: "Shopkeeper Hua's back cook has to turn off the fire every day at midnight? How many of the chefs have to work so late?"

Shopkeeper Hua sneered guiltily, "That's not true! The business of the inn was not so good in the past! There are so many diners coming for the big girl today. I didn't expect it. Come on, come on, this is a reward for your hard work. "

Jiang Ning weighed it, it was estimated to be eighty cents, and her face finally looked better. She was about to go upstairs to sleep.

Shopkeeper Hua quickly stopped the person, "Well, sister, can we discuss something? What do you think if I ask you to take charge of Laijiang Inn?"

“Not very good!” Jiang Ning refused without thinking. Although she has skills and a kitchen **** system to assist her, she will never be tied to the kitchen for the rest of her life. That is not her life pursuit.

“Hey, let’s not be so absolute! Everything is negotiable. Just tell me a condition, and I will agree to it if it can be achieved!” Shopkeeper Hua gritted his teeth, and it seemed that he was really planning to spend a lot of money.

Jiang Ning was happy, "Shopkeeper Hua, I know you sincerely recruit me, but I also have difficulties. I still have several children to take care of. The youngest is only six years old. My daughter-in-law is expected to have a baby next year. Why don't you tell me that I am far away?" Is it appropriate to make money?

Besides, to be honest, I am still a widow! As the saying goes, there are many disputes in front of a widow. I don’t know what rumors will spread if I don’t go back to the village today. If I don’t go back for many years, the people in the village may arrange for me to run away with the wild man! Do you think I can agree to this situation? "

Shopkeeper Hua really hadn’t thought about this question, and was immediately stunned by Jiang Ning’s question.

Jiang Ning saw his frown and thought of Yang Datou's ambition, so he mused: "Well, you have seen Datou before. That child wants to learn cooking from me, and I also want to train him. When I go back, I will teach him well." In a few days, let him prepare these dishes and serve them first, okay?"

Shopkeeper Hua thought for a long time, but seemed to have no better way, so he could only sigh and nod, "This is the only way we can do it for the time being, but big sister, you have to teach me well, if the dishes made by Da Tou are too different from yours, I don’t dare to use it!”

"Don't worry about this. If the food he cooks is not good, I won't agree if he wants to come over!"

So the two made arrangements for Yang Datou.

Early the next morning, Linjiang Inn changed to the previous menu, and the diners who came in could not help but be disappointed. Shopkeeper Hua spent a lot of time trying to appease the diners. Seeing Jiang Ning coming down from upstairs carrying a baggage, he quickly invited people to the side. Shang whispered: "I made a statement this morning, saying that the master who cooked the food yesterday returned to his hometown to arrange some things and would come over to cook. It will only take a few days, and you will have to teach Datou a lesson in these few days."

I know your family doesn’t have the conditions to get these aquatic products, so I’ve asked people to prepare them. I’ll send some over today and another batch tomorrow. Do you think three days is enough? "

Jiang Ning didn't expect Shopkeeper Hua to spend such a huge amount of money, so he was happy, "Sure! Since the shopkeeper has gone all out, if I can't let Datou become a talent in three days, I won't be sorry for the fish you gave me, but I have to go out for a walk first, and I'll ask for them later." I’ll come find you after I leave.”
