Siheyuan: Started in 1950, third-level cook

"Ms. Jia Zhang, do you know how much I spent on these things?"

Jia Zhang shook her head. She had been in charge of the money for decades and had never bought so many things at one time. Naturally, she couldn't guess how much money was spent.

Chen Jun smiled and said, "These cost me more than 40 yuan in total. Do you know where the money came from?"

Over forty?

When Jia Zhang heard this number, her face twitched.

Her son Jia Dongxu only earned more than 20 yuan a month, but the prodigal son Chen Jun spent two months' salary of Jia Dongxu in one go.

Seeing that Jia Zhang didn't say anything, Chen Jun's smile became even brighter.

"I got this money by using my factory quota. Jia Zhang, guess how much I sold the quota for."

"I made 600 yuan from it, hahahaha, that's enough for my family to have a good New Year!"

what? ?

When Jia Zhang heard this, she felt numb all over.

Chen Jun sold the quota to enter the steel mill? ?

This is Qin Huairu's quota to work in the factory, and this kid Chen Jun actually sold the quota without saying a word?

Why!

Why does Chen Jun do this!

Didn’t Yi Zhonghai say that the Chen family didn’t know about the quota? What is going on?

Jia Zhang went from being surprised to being shocked, and from being shocked to being furious!

She looked at the smiling Chen Jun in front of her and wanted to rush up and scratch his face!

This is an opportunity for both working people!

How many families in the courtyard houses have two working spouses?

If both members of the Jia family are working, their combined monthly salary can be more than fifty yuan. Although they cannot afford to eat and drink luxuriously, they can still eat meat every few days.

More importantly, the factory work position can be inherited, and Jia Dongxu's work position is inherited from Lao Jia.

Qin Huairu's future job position can be passed on to her grandson.

But now Chen Jun has actually sold the quota to enter the factory. All the ideas of dual-income families and grandson inheriting the job position are gone.

Looking at Jia Zhang's gradually distorted expression, Chen Jun couldn't help but grin.

Be angry, even if you are angry to death.

It turned out that Yi Zhonghai had conspired with the Jia family to get their family's quota.

As for who this quota would be given to, Chen Jun was too lazy to guess.

After making Jia Zhang angry, Chen Jun went home contentedly.

What I didn't expect was that as soon as I entered the house, I saw Lin Yao sitting in the house angrily, looking very unhappy.

"Oh, what happened?" Chen Jun asked puzzledly.

Jia Zhang had just gotten up, so logically, there shouldn't be anyone else to make Lin Yao angry.

"Oh, it's the old lady. After you and mom left, she came to our house and asked us all sorts of questions. She also asked us what we cooked at home yesterday. I didn't know how to send some to her."

"They implied that we have no conscience and don't know how to respect our elders. Anyway, what they said is really infuriating!"

"I couldn't help but talk back a few times, and the old lady actually wanted to hit me with her walking stick!"

She's actually a deaf old lady?

Chen Jun was a little surprised by this. In TV dramas, deaf old ladies usually stay at home and rarely go out. Could it be that the braised meat cooked yesterday was so delicious that this old woman was greedy for it?

Come to think of it, this is possible. The deaf old lady is indeed very greedy. She accepted Sha Zhu as her grandson, largely because Sha Zhu’s cooking is delicious.

But after hearing this, Chen Jun became even more curious.

With Lin Yao's personality, she is no match for the deaf old lady. If she were hit by a few sticks, she would come to me and cry loudly.

But Lin Yao's current appearance clearly showed that she had not suffered any loss.

This is rather strange.

"And then, how was this handled?"

Lin Yao pouted and said, "I definitely couldn't just stand there and get beaten. I ran to the yard and yelled, saying that the old lady was confused and came to our house to beg for food, and even beat people up when she didn't get any."

"At least there was a sign hanging on our door frame. The old lady scolded me and went back with her cane."

Chen Jun: “….”

Lin Yao is a very smart girl!

He even knew to make a big deal out of it and let everyone in the hospital come and see.

In order to maintain her image in the courtyard, the deaf old lady usually takes good care of her reputation.

After Lin Yao’s yelling, the deaf old lady definitely wouldn’t dare to hit Lin Yao in front of others.

It’s a pity that I don’t know how angry the deaf old lady is. It would be best if she gets sick from anger.

"Brother, what if the old lady goes to complain to the uncle?" Lin Yao was still a little worried.

Chen Jun smiled when he heard this: "Don't worry, if Yi Zhonghai dares to come to our house to cause trouble, I will give him a slap in the face."

"Okay, okay, let's clean up these things quickly. You roast the pig skin, and I'll clean out the fish and pig intestines."

"The stewed meat may not be cooked through yet. Let's continue stewing it after we leave the stall."

When Lin Yao heard about fish and pig intestines, she couldn't help but ask, "Brother, have you changed the menu again?"

"Well, I replaced the Kung Pao Chicken and Spicy Shredded Potatoes. Hurry up and clean up."

After saying that, the brother and sister started to get busy with their own work.

Although Lin Yao is young, she works very efficiently. After roasting the pig skin, she went to pick and wash vegetables.

It was a little after ten forty when the brother and sister pushed the cart out the door.

We arrived a little late today, and by the time we reached East Street, there were already a lot of vendors setting up stalls.

With Master Liu and the boss of the braised pork stall watching over them, they didn't have to worry about their seats being taken.

"Hey, young boss, you are late today!" Grandpa Liu sat on a mat and greeted Chen Jun with a smile.

Chen Jun smiled and nodded: "I changed two menus and went out a little late."

Oh?

When he heard that Chen Jun had changed the menu again, Master Liu's eyes lit up and he immediately asked, "How many items did you change? What did you change?"

"I changed two of them. I replaced the Kung Pao Chicken and Spicy Shredded Potatoes with Braised Tofu with Crucian Carp and Stir-fried Pork Intestines."

"Okay, okay, should we stew the crucian carp and tofu into soup?" Grandpa Liu seemed very happy and asked quickly.

"No soup, it's spicy!"

"Spicy food tastes good, spicy food goes well with rice, hahahaha, hurry up and clean up, I'm an old man waiting for the meal." Grandpa Liu smiled and stroked his mustache: "Give me one portion of each of the five dishes, and two bowls of rice and two steamed buns."

Mr. Liu and his boss have already treated Chen Jun's stir-fry stall as a cafeteria. They always come here for lunch. The two of them definitely can't finish five dishes.

But don't worry, the two of them will pack up the leftover food and take it home to heat up and eat in the evening.

Chen Jun nodded and asked Lin Yao to put on the stove and continue stewing the meat that had not been fully cooked.

After unloading the things on the cart, Chen Jun started to get busy.

No one has come up yet, so Chen Jun plans to prepare the crucian carp stewed with tofu first.

This crucian carp stewed with tofu is actually a Sichuan dish that has been improved by Chen Jun.

The method is to cut the fish into pieces first, fry it in a pan, and then take it out when it is 70% cooked.

Then heat the oil in another pan, add onion, ginger and garlic to sauté until fragrant, then pour in the Pixian bean paste to stir-fry until the oil turns red, then add the rice soup to start stewing the crucian carp, finally simmer over high heat until the fish soup is thick.

This dish has the spiciness and thickness of black bean paste, which perfectly sets off the freshness and tenderness of the crucian carp.

Chen Jun also added fresh and tender tofu to this dish. The tofu absorbed the soup and tasted no worse than fish.
