hunter's daughter-in-law

After listening to Yuan Hong's narration, Zhang Jin's eyes were wet. He grew up under the care of everyone, and he couldn't imagine how Yuan Hong spent those years. Thinking of that scene, Zhang Jin felt distressed It's hard.

"My purpose is not to see your tears," Yuan Hong pressed him into his arms, "You just need to smile by my side all the time."

"Well..." Zhang Jin nodded.

The past is over, and now they are together, they will be happy.

"Wait." Yuan Hong let go of Zhang Jin in his arms, and then walked out of the room.

Not knowing why, Zhang Jin watched his leaving back, sat patiently on the bed and waited.

After a while, Yuan Hong came back, sat next to Zhang Jin, and handed him the things in his hand.

"This is the knife you saw last time. Although I don't want to touch it again, it is a treasure passed down from generation to generation in our original family, so I will give it to you for safekeeping. When our child is born , he will inherit."

Zhang Jin looked at the knife carefully, and at a glance, he knew that it was quite old. After time, the scabbard turned black.You can vaguely see the simple and peculiar patterns carved on it.

"Okay, then I'll take it."

Zhang Jin took it solemnly, this knife meant a lot to the whole Yuan family.But in Yuan Hong's eyes, its existence is a bit different, so he will keep it safe until the day the child can accept it.

The vegetable garden they opened up ushered in a bumper harvest, and they were basically ripe. They picked eggplants and beans several times.It was the first time to eat home-grown vegetables, not only fresh, but also very satisfying.Zhang Jin felt that these vegetables tasted a lot better than the ones he ate in modern times, but he couldn't tell the specifics.

And Zhang Jin was looking forward to it, and the tomato that everyone thought was poisonous was ripe.

The red "little fat guys" are hanging on the branches, very cute and attractive, Zhang Jin has long wanted to pick a few and try them.

It seems that they are almost ripe. Today, Zhang Jin asked Yuan Zhe to pick all the tomatoes, except some blue ones.

Yuan Zhe put the washed tomatoes in a basket and put them in front of Zhang Jin as ordered, but what he didn't expect was that Zhang Jin wanted to eat them. Yuan Zhe turned pale on the spot and said in panic, "Madam, put it down quickly! This is Inedible!"

Snatching the tomato that Zhang Jin put into his mouth, Yuan Zhe was shocked, if he ate it, it would be worth it!The lady is still pregnant!

"Don't be nervous, this is edible." Zhang Jin tried to convince him.

Yuan Zhe pushed the basket of tomatoes further away from him, "Ma'am, don't be joking! These tomatoes are really inedible!"

Zhang Jin sighed, "It's really edible!"

"This tomato is so red, it is poisonous at first glance! And no one has ever eaten it. You are still pregnant with a child, so you must take care of your health!"

"Yuan Zhe, I know you're doing it for my own good. I assure you, this tomato is absolutely non-toxic. I used to eat it a lot. If you don't believe me, I'll eat it now for you to see. It must be good!"

"No, ma'am!" Seeing that Zhang Jin still hadn't given up, Yuan Zhe sweated anxiously.

Zhang Jin was about to be amused by him, "You can't judge whether something can be eaten just by its appearance. This tomato is rich in nutrients, and eating it is very beneficial to people's health. No one tried it in Xiaguo, but it doesn't mean that tomato It’s poisonous. Don’t worry, you’ll be fine if you eat it.”

"Don't move! I'll eat first!" Although what Zhang Jin said was reasonable, he still couldn't let his wife try it. What if it didn't do what the lady said.

Yuan Bo heard the voice and was also frightened when he knew that Zhang Jin was going to eat tomatoes.

"Really don't try, ma'am!"

Zhang Jin stroked his forehead, what is his purpose of growing tomatoes, but for eating, not for looking good!If you can't convince everyone to believe him, then all your thoughts and plans will be in vain.

"Can you trust me? How could I lie to you for no reason, and even take my own life as a joke!"

"I believe you!" Yuan Hong walked over at some point and took out a tomato from the basket, "However, I have never eaten it, so let me taste it first."

The corners of Zhang Jin's lips could not help but curl up. How fortunate it is to meet a person who completely trusts her, and this person treats her so well.

"I'll do it!" Yuan Bo directly picked up a tomato and stuffed it into his mouth when everyone was not paying attention, with a look of death on his face.

"I want to eat too!" Yuan Zhe also took one and gnawed on it, "Master and Madam, please stay still."

A warm feeling filled his heart. He clearly knew that tomatoes were edible, but Yuan Zhe and Yuan Bo's actions moved him very much.

After a while, the two of them finished handling the tomatoes on their hands.

"How is it? Is it delicious?" Zhang Jin asked.

"Is it really not poisonous?" Yuan Bo looked weird, then scratched his head, "The smell is quite special."

"There are so many uses for this tomato. It can be used for cooking or paired with snacks when made into tomato sauce. It tastes great. If you eat it directly, it tastes good too." Zhang Jin handed one to Yuan Hongzui The latter opened his mouth and took a bite without hesitation.

When Yuan Zhe and Yuan Bo met, they suppressed the temptation to dissuade, and began to believe what Zhang Jin said, because they knew that no matter what, the wife would not poison the master.

Yuan Hong nodded slightly after chewing, "I quite like the taste of this tomato."

"In this case, let's make tomato scrambled eggs today, and everyone will try it." Zhang Jin smiled slightly, and finally let everyone accept this new food.

Because Zhang Jin was pregnant, this dish was completed by him and Yuan Zhe was in charge of the cooking.Yuan Zhe, who made this dish for the first time, did not look very good, but it tasted very good.

Yuan Zheng, who went out on business, was also quite shocked when he came back to see everyone eating tomatoes. Everyone just talked and explained to him.

Yuan Hong and Yuan Bo have the highest acceptance of tomatoes in the family, but Yuan Zheng and Yuan Zhe don't particularly like this taste.

Zhang Jin's next plan is to make ketchup. Li Mingyin makes snacks, so he must be very interested in ketchup.

"Yes, keep stirring, Yuan Bo, pay attention to the heat." Apart from Zhang Jin, Yuan Zhe is good at kitchen matters, so Zhang Jin, who is currently inconvenient to do it by himself, had to entrust this task to him. Yuan Zhe.Then, he was there to guide in case of failure.

Because it was the first time, Zhang Jin chose the simplest method.The first step is to blanch the tomato, peel off the skin, cut it into small pieces and mash it, put an appropriate amount of sugar in the pot and cook it slowly until it becomes sticky, and finally add some lemon juice and cook for a while.

Because the process is very simple, Zhang Jin is very relieved to let Yuan Zhe try it. Yuan Zhe usually cooks very well, and the tomato sauce will definitely not cause problems.

After tasting it, Zhang Jin nodded in satisfaction, thinking that when the guy from "Xiao Zhai" came to pull pork jerky, he asked him to bring a can to Li Mingyin, believing that he would bring out the value of tomato sauce.

Zhang Jin has no ambitions. It doesn't matter if you have a lot of money or a little money, as long as you live a peaceful life with peace of mind.These days, they have earned a lot of money from pork jerky, plus selling the recipe for strawberry jam, and the design of the cabinet, as well as running newspapers, their wallets have already bulged.It doesn't matter whether the ketchup can bring benefits, two fixed incomes are enough for them to spend.

The day after the ketchup was brought over, Li Mingyin couldn't wait to visit.

"What sauce did you bring me yesterday? How come I've never seen it before?" Li Mingyin said with some eagerness in his tone.

"That's ketchup." Zhang Jin replied.

"Tomato!?" The faces of Lou Xiao and Li Mingyin stiffened, "It's that red tomato planted in your yard!?"

Knowing what the two of them were thinking, Zhang Jin didn't tell him that it was ketchup when he sent it to him before, so these two people probably thought he was crazy.

"Don't worry, these tomatoes are edible! Besides, you should try them all, aren't they all good?"

Li Mingyin and the others' expressions eased.

Lou Xiao couldn't help but said: "I worked so hard for our newspaper, I thought I offended you somehow, and wanted you to poison us both. It really shocked me! This sauce Is it really made of tomatoes?"

"It's true."

"I never thought that this tomato could be eaten!" Lou Xiao lifted up the tomato on the table in surprise, and observed carefully with his eyes, "How did you find out?"

Zhang Jinqian smiled, "I just learned about it by accident. I also want to ask Li Mingyin what he thinks about this tomato?"

Changing the topic quickly, Zhang Jin secretly heaved a sigh of relief when Lou Xiao stopped asking questions.

"I came this time just to ask you to buy this recipe," Li Mingyin continued, "You asked someone to bring me a can, and I'm afraid you guessed its usefulness for me. Indeed, I tried to match it with various snacks, and some It fits perfectly. I am also going to try to see if I can make a unique dessert with this tomato sauce."

Upon seeing this, Yuan Hong said, "The value of this tomato does not lie in the tomato sauce, and the use of tomato sauce is not limited to snacks. If the news that the tomato is edible is spread, it will definitely cause a sensation."

"You are right. However, if we hadn't eaten tomato sauce without knowing it, how could we believe that this tomato is not poisonous. Even if the news spread and caused a sensation, how many people would dare to believe it or dare to eat it?" Try it. So, if we buy your tomato sauce, we have to tell customers what it is made of, and wait until everyone accepts it. If one is not good, maybe our store will not be able to continue. In short, this We offer 50 taels for the recipe of tomato sauce," Lou Xiao said.

"We told you the usefulness of tomatoes, which is equivalent to telling you a way of making money. How to use it is up to you. The recipe for tomato sauce is 50 taels is a dream, and 200 taels."

······

After some haggling, Lou Xiao finally agreed to buy it with 100 taels.But, it's not a buyout, Zhang Jin and the others can sell it to others.

After getting the recipe, Lou Xiao almost went into a rage, "Good job, Yuan Hong! How dare you cheat me so much!! Such a simple thing, Li Mingyin can figure it out within two days, and you actually want me 100 taels!!!"

"Don't be a good boy when you get a cheap deal. You can get your money back right away. Besides, the agreement has been signed. Do you want to go back on your word?" Yuan Hong didn't care.

Lou Xiao was so angry that his toothache hurt.

Zhang Jin and Li Mingyin shook their heads helplessly, both of them have a temperament that refuses to suffer, alas~~~~~~
