Rebirth of a Village Girl

Chapter 22 022: The shameful self-employed person

Ni Yan doesn't care what people in the village are talking about, she just needs to live her life well and have a clear conscience.

She parked her brand-new big-bar bicycle in the yard and shouted inside: "Mom, I'm back."

As soon as she finished speaking, Ni Cuihua walked out wearing an apron. When she saw the bicycle, her expression changed, "Yanyan, did you buy this bicycle?"

Ni Yan nodded, "Yes, Mom, what do you think of this car? Is it stylish?"

Ni Cuihua walked up to Ni Yan angrily, "Why don't you discuss with me in advance when you buy such a big thing? Even if we have money, we can't build it like this! If this continues, how can we live like this?"

Ni Cuihua's worries are not unreasonable. After paying the rent, their savings only have 700 yuan. They can't get out of the car without 200 yuan. If Ni Yan spends money like this, even a golden mountain will be destroyed. She's defeated!

Ni Yan hugged Ni Cuihua's arm with a smile, "Mom, don't worry, I won't spend money indiscriminately. I bought the car for business. Don't worry, I am sensible. I will make sure that you and your sister enjoy the food and drink in the future." of!"

As soon as these words came out, Ni Cuihua's expression softened a bit, and she continued: "Business? What kind of business do you want to do? Is it appropriate for a big girl like you to go out and show your face?"

"Mom, what kind of old ideas are you talking about? The chairman has said that now men and women are equal. If I don't go out to do business, will I just sit at home and have nothing to do?" Ni Yan asked with a smile.

Ni Cuihua sighed, "Mom is afraid that you will be bullied by others outside. You are a girl after all. I told your Aunt Ning today that her family still has a few acres of land, so we can farm peacefully. Don’t think about what is available and what is not available.”

At this time, self-employment is an industry that everyone is ashamed of, especially Ni Yan is still a girl. If a girl is exposed outside, she will not be able to find a good husband in the future.

"Mom, I didn't bring you to the capital to let you farm!" Ni Yan straightened her expression, "You can just take care of your sister at home and leave the money to me. Don't worry about it."

Ni Yan suddenly became serious, and even Ni Cuihua, the mother, was a little scared.

"Mom, don't worry, I will definitely let you and your sister live a good life, believe me." Ni Yan's voice softened, and he looked at Ni Cuihua, his cat-like eyes full of determination.

Looking at her daughter like this, Ni Cuihua nodded like a ghost, "Okay, Yanyan. Mom believes in you."

After successfully convincing her mother, Ni Yan showed a bright smile, walked to the car, and unloaded the things she bought today.

Ni Cuihua took the fish from Ni Yan's hand and said with some confusion: "Yanyan, this fish is very fishy. If you buy so much, you won't be able to finish it, right?"

Ni Yan smiled slightly and said mysteriously: "Mom, we can only count on these fish and meat to make a fortune."

Ni Cuihua's face was full of questions, "...get rich by doing this?" Fish and meat are the most unpopular things. Is her daughter still awake?

Without explaining, Ni Yan took a fish into the kitchen, put the remaining five fish in a bamboo basket, and hung them in the well.

In fact, there were already appliances such as refrigerators at this time, but they were too expensive and ordinary people couldn't afford them, so they had to use the low temperature in the wells to keep food fresh.

In fact, the preservation effect of water wells is quite good, but it’s just a little troublesome.

Ni Yan picked up the black fish that was left behind, chopped the fish head and bones into pieces, put it in a casserole to make soup, and then cut the two large pieces of fish into fillets. After all, Ni Yan was a caterer in his previous life, and his knife skills Very good, the fish fillets are neither thin nor thick, very beautiful.

After cutting the fish fillets, put the fish fillets in a large bowl, add a spoonful of salt, minced ginger, minced green onions, cooking wine, and vinegar to marinate. Finally, beat in two eggs and coat them with a layer of starch. Even if it's marinated.

Ni Yan washed another pickled cabbage he just bought today, cut it into pieces, chopped a few chili peppers, prepared minced ginger, garlic and other seasonings, heated the oil in a pan, when the oil was 90% hot, put in the bean paste and stir-fried until the red oil , then add onion, ginger, garlic and other seasonings, then add sauerkraut, and stir-fry for a few minutes, a scent will come out.

After the sauerkraut became fragrant, Ni Yan immediately poured the cooked fish soup into the pot. The thick white fish soup looked very nutritious.

When the pickled fish soup in the pot started to boil, Ni Yan picked up the fish fillets with chopsticks and put them into the pot one by one.

The fish meat is combined with the aroma of pickled cabbage, and the taste is so tempting. After a while, the yard is filled with the sour and spicy taste of pickled fish, which makes your taste buds wide open.

When cooking the pot, Ni Yan specially chopped a handful of coriander and chives and sprinkled them on top of the fish. Then he poured hot rapeseed oil on top of the fish and stung it. The rapeseed oil blended the aroma of coriander and chives, making it sour and refreshing. Appetizing, extremely fragrant and mouth-watering.

Ni Cuihua stood by the pot and exclaimed: "Yanyan, what kind of fish is this? Fish boiled in water?" This was the first time she knew that fish could be made into such tricks!

It's so fragrant. It's so fragrant even before I start eating it. If I eat it, why don't I swallow it with my tongue?

"This is pickled fish, Mom, you try it first." Ni Yan picked up a piece of crystal clear fish and handed it to Ni Cuihua's mouth.

The fish meat is extremely tender. After you bite into it, a spicy and sour aroma fills your mouth. It is sour and delicious and melts in your mouth. After eating one piece, you are still thinking about the next piece. There is no fishy smell at all. , it makes people want to stop eating. If you just eat this fish, you can eat at least three or four bowls of rice.

Ni Cuihua had never eaten such delicious fish in her life. She looked at Ni Yan and said in surprise: "This fish is so delicious!"

If she hadn't seen it with her own eyes, she would hardly have believed it was fish meat.

Ni Yan smiled slightly, "If it tastes good, just eat more."

Ni Cuihua waved her hand, "Mom, I'll eat with you later. What else are you cooking? I'll light a fire for you."

At this time, the kind of earthen stoves used in rural areas were still used to make fires with grass and wood. Although they were not as convenient as gas, the cooked meals were much more fragrant than those cooked on gas stoves.

"Let's fry some vegetables and then we can start the meal." Ni Yan put the washed vegetables in front of the stove.

There were three dishes in total in the evening, fried vegetables, pickled fish, and a bowl of steamed eggs.

The eggs are steamed in a rice pot, using leftover egg yolks from making pickled fish. After the egg yolks are stirred evenly, add some rice soup, add some soy sauce, sesame oil, and salt. The steamed egg custard should not be too fragrant.

For mother and daughter, three dishes are more than enough.

Sitting at the dinner table, Ni Cuihua said: "Why don't you call your Aunt Ning over? She also takes good care of us. She must have never eaten this pickled fish."

"Okay." Ni Yan ran to the kitchen and bought another set of dishes and chopsticks, and then went to the north wing.

Ni Chenggui refused at first. After all, it was embarrassing to always eat other people's food. This is not an affluent era. Whose life is not tight? But unable to resist Ni Yan's enthusiasm, she came over with a shy face.

"Mom Yanyan, I'm so sorry. Look, I'm here to eat and drink for free again."
