After rebirth, I went from a peasant girl to the richest man
Chapter 82 Unexpected Breakfast
There is nothing left in the house in Qujiang County, and having the space at hand makes packing a lot easier.
Walking on the way out of the city and on the way home, even the wind blowing on my face is pleasant.
It was afternoon when we arrived at Dayang Village. It was not as hot as in summer and it was the slack season for farmers. When we walked into the village, we could see villagers enjoying the cool under the fairy trees.
"Ah! Isn't this the white girl?"
The person who spoke was Aunt Niu who lived next door to the Bai family. She was older than Bai's mother.
It is said that a distant relative is not as good as a close neighbor. During the years when Bai Qingyun was mentally retarded, Aunt Niu also helped the family a lot.
"I heard from your mother that you went to the county town to learn hand embroidery. Why did you suddenly come back today?"
When Bai Qingyun saw the three people who were tracking Wei Xi in Baiyang Town, he immediately took his men to Qujiang County.
Everyone in the village knew about Bai Qingyun's situation. When faced with someone who was absent from home out of nowhere, his family would always help cover up when people asked about him.
From these words, you can also hear how her family helped her get through it.
There is not much that women can do in this world. Almost everyone can sew some basic clothes, but if they want to sew with some creativity, they have to use different styles of embroidery.
The cost for a woman to learn embroidery is almost the same as that for a man to go to school, and neither is affordable for ordinary families.
If you want to hire a good embroidery master to teach you, the price will probably be even higher.
Knowing that the Bai family regularly delivers fish to Hongyunlou in the town every day, their living conditions have visibly improved. The popular autumn pear paste sold in the town is also made by the Bai family. The villagers have also increased their income because of the Bai family's purchase of autumn pears. These are things that everyone in the village knows.
Sending Bai Qingyun to learn embroidery is in line with the current situation of the Bai family and is not abrupt.
"Auntie, I'm clumsy and don't want to learn anymore~"
Now I have to find a reason to go home.
"Girl, how could you give up such a good opportunity so easily..."
For a woman, learning embroidery can help her survive by acquiring a skill. The women in the village all envy Bai Qingyun for having such a good opportunity.
"Oh, Aunt Niu, Bai's health is not good to begin with, and it's not safe for a little girl to be outside alone, so please stop talking about this!"
"It's okay, girl. If you don't want to learn, then don't learn. You know how to cook, and it's not shameful at all!"
"Yes, little Bai, my old man bought a bottle of the pear paste you made at home and took it home to drink. It tastes sweet and refreshing. It's better than the prescriptions in the clinic! In my opinion, you deserve to study medicine. If you become a female doctor in the future, you will be no worse than that embroiderer!"
"Of course not. Our girl Bai not only knows how to make autumn pear paste, but also the magical tofu sold in our village is well-known far and wide. Even now, many merchants come to buy from us!"
"Thanks to Bai Yatou, winter is coming soon. This year, I can make an extra cotton-padded jacket for my child to celebrate the New Year!"
Everyone was talking at once, surrounding Bai Qingyun. They started by comforting Bai Qingyun not to be discouraged because she couldn't learn embroidery, but finally they started talking about what New Year's goods she could buy for this year.
I can only say that the atmosphere of chatting with a group of people is really good.
"It's hard for you, a stove-burner, to learn embroidery!"
I don’t know when the news of Bai Qingyun blowing up the kitchen got out. As expected, it’s hard to keep secrets when living in a village.
People who can't cook sometimes can't stop themselves from cooking when they feel like it.
That morning, Father Bai went to the river to clean the fish basket as usual. The family had not yet gotten up, so Bai Qingyun, who had gotten up early, wanted to prepare a delicious breakfast for his family.
Bai Qingyun arranged everything from vegetable porridge, boiled eggs, fried dough sticks, a big stove and two small stoves.
To make vegetable porridge, just put rice, water and vegetables into the pot and cook it slowly over low heat.
Boiled eggs are easier to make. Just put them in water and cook until done.
The more difficult part is frying the dough sticks, as you need to do the entire process yourself, from kneading the dough to frying the dough sticks.
Kneading the dough is easy. If it is dry, add water. If there is too much water, add more flour. Ignore the fact that there was less than half a plate of flour at the beginning and it has overflowed now. The first step of frying the dough sticks has been successfully completed.
The kneaded dough needs to rise before it can be fried in the pan. It is a good time to pour the oil into the pan and slowly boil it. The fire on a big stove is not as easy to control as that on a small stove. When the fire is burned to your satisfaction, the dough will be ready.
The next step is frying it in a pan.
The noodles are pulled into long strips and put into the pot, with oil and water splashing everywhere. People who don't cook often are often panicked by this scene.
Bai Qingyun was not surprised either.
Risking getting burned, he quickly turned the fried dough sticks in the pan over. With just this flip, the two fried dough sticks that were originally tightly connected were immediately separated and became independent individuals.
Bai Qingyun, who pursues perfection, could not tolerate any flaws and immediately wanted to glue the two together again.
Then, the chopsticks fell into the pot by accident. I tried to fish them out with a spatula, but the water on the spatula made the oil pan even more 'irritable'. The moment the spatula fell into the pot, a tiny hole appeared in the solid iron pot, and the oil that flowed out just went into the stove fire...
Before the fire got bigger, everyone in the Bai family who heard the noise rushed to check the situation. Grandma Bai reacted and carried Bai Qingyun out of the kitchen. Grandpa Bai quickly scooped up the oil and took water from a nearby jar to put out the fire, thus saving the kitchen.
Seeing his family members blackened by oil smoke, Bai Qingyun felt extremely guilty and thought that he could use porridge and eggs to make up for it.
However, the porridge ended up being rice because there was more rice than water, and the fire on the stove was not extinguished. So the bottom of the pot, which was originally supposed to be eaten as rice, ended up being covered with a thick layer of... black rice crust!
Overcooked, cracked eggs were placed on the table, the only thing left to eat that morning.
That day, the Bai family was all around the kitchen.
The three brothers of the Bai family who were going to school packed up the last remaining eggs. Father Bai rushed to the town to buy a new big pot. Grandpa Bai cleaned the stove full of water stains. Grandma Bai and Mother Bai used the flour and oil left by Bai Qingyun to make a big pot of fried cakes.
It can be said that Bai Qingyun's small move successfully mobilized the main labor force in the family.
This is also why Bai Qingyun didn't like eating fried food for a long time, but instead loved big buns full of stuffing.
As the saying goes, hit someone without slapping someone in the face, and expose someone without exposing their shortcomings.
Aunt Niu's words made Bai Qingyun blush a little. It turned out that without you knowing, your deeds had already become famous in the village, and the way you became famous was very surprising.
"Aunts and grandmas, I'm going home first!"
Embarrassed to become the center of conversation, Bai Qingyun ran back home blushing.
Bai Qingyun swore that he would never join such a group chat again!
