In May, the countryside fades away from the fragrant pink and white of apricot and begins to welcome the greenness of summer. In the rice fields on both sides of the country road, the seedlings begin to ear.

Chen Changsheng felt that aside from her current poor family, the ancient scenery was quite beautiful. No wonder so many rich people in previous lives liked to go to the countryside for vacation in their spare time.

The oxcart was not moving very fast, and it was almost Chenshi when it arrived at Baishui County.

Chen Daniu parked the oxcart steadily at the gate of the city and told everyone that if they wanted to take a cart on their way back, they could just gather here before You hour.

Chen Dafu unloaded the things from the bullock cart, and Chen Changsheng beat her sore legs and quietly called out the virtual bracelet. It had just reached 7 o'clock, and the current total calorie consumption was calories.

Not bad, it was not in vain that her old leg was almost broken.

Baishui County belongs to Jiangzhou Prefecture. Jiangzhou Prefecture runs east-west and has jurisdiction over 13 counties. Among them, Baishui County, Sishui County and Changshui County are located in the north, close to the Yangtze River and developed on the docks. .

Due to their geographical advantages, many people come to these three counties to do business.

Chen Changsheng's thoughts were attracted by the bustling dock not far away. At this time, a cargo ship had just sailed into the dock and docked. Many people got off the boat, including merchants, scholars, and passers-by taking the road north.

Ah, so many people.

There are many pedestrians coming and going on the street, including rural people going to the market to sell vegetables, small vendors hawking along the way, teahouses, restaurants, fabric shops, grain and oil shops, butcher shops, pawnshops, and of course, entertainment venues with feasting and entertainment.

The whole group is thriving and lively.

Chen Changsheng asked some passers-by who were also going to the market, and then went straight to the vegetable selling area in Baishui County.

In order to facilitate unified management, the government set up centralized vegetable selling areas in the north and south of Baishui County. Farmers selling vegetables only needed to pay a management fee of two cents to go in and choose a stall, similar to today's rental fees.

Chen Changsheng went to the North Market. She arrived not too early, and the good spot was already taken by others. Chen Changsheng walked around and finally chose a small area near the end corner as a stall spot.

The mother and son spent a long time posing, but no one cared.

Chen Changsheng decided that he could not sit still and wait for death. He wanted to take the initiative and started shouting, "We are selling wild vegetables, fresh wild vegetables, freshly picked wild vegetables."

But she shouted for a long time, but still no one came to buy it.

Chen Changsheng wondered in his heart, could it be that people in ancient times didn't like eating wild vegetables?

But her craftsmanship is recognized as top-notch in New Oriental, and Chen Changsheng thinks that the two dishes he cooked yesterday are not bad.

What went wrong?

Perhaps their location is too remote, there is no loudspeaker, the voice of one person shouting is too low, and the market is too noisy with people coming and going.

She asked Chen Dafu to join the hawking business. There is strength in numbers.

The elder brother who was selling knitted baskets next door saw how hard Chen Changsheng and his son were working. He shook his head and advised, "Sister, you probably won't be able to sell your wild vegetables."

Miss?

Call her?

Chen Changsheng has not yet adapted to her female identity so quickly. She was about to retort, "You are the eldest sister, and your whole family is the eldest sister."

The elder brother who made baskets said again, "Sister, these days, poor people really don't have food to eat, so they go to the mountains to pick some wild vegetables. Naturally, people are reluctant to spend money to buy the wild vegetables that can be picked in the mountains. Besides, the wild vegetables are all boiled and bitter. It’s tasteless, no one likes it, and even wealthy people don’t want to buy it.”

What the eldest brother said was reasonable and awakened Chen Changsheng.

Yes, poor families don’t have much money. They save their money for emergencies and to buy some meat to try during the New Year and festivals. There are a lot of wild vegetables in the mountains. If you want to eat them, you can just go to the mountains to pick them. You will definitely not pay for them. .

Rich people are used to eating big fish and meat. Even if they want to eat something different, it's a pity that most of them are boiled or stewed and nothing else.

In the previous life, everyone basically ate polished rice, noodles, chicken, duck, and fish every day. We had long been tired of eating them. Instead, we liked to eat farm vegetables and game, but the prerequisite was that they had to be delicious and delicious.

Chen Changsheng immediately changed his mind and started shouting in a different way, "Cold and refreshing ground vegetables, delicious ground vegetables that go well with rice, crunchy and fragrant ground vegetables, one meal can dazzle three big bowls of ground vegetables."

She took out the half-bowl of ground vegetables she had fried in the morning from the basket on her back, "If you are passing by, don't miss it. Come and buy it. Come and try it."

Chen Dafu looked at her actions with a look of surprise on his face. His mother actually brought out such delicious food and let people eat it for free.

Could it be that what happened yesterday has stimulated your brain and made you dizzy?

Chen Dafu was about to open his mouth to ask his mother what was wrong. Chen Changsheng looked at his eldest son's stunned look and took the initiative to explain, "Dafu, do you think the ground vegetables made by your mother are delicious?"

Chen Dafu said categorically, "It's delicious, fragrant and spicy. Dafu has never eaten anything so delicious. When I was a child, I picked wild vegetables, and when I brought them back, I would chop them up and mix them with brown rice to make porridge."

Grandma also took me to have a meal at Grandpa Lizheng’s house. The food at Grandpa Lizheng’s house was one of the best in the village, but the wild vegetables were also bitter and tasteless. He Niang's craftsmanship yesterday was as good as heaven or earth. "

Chen Changsheng continued to explain, "Although my mother's cooking is delicious, I don't know how to cook it, and I have never eaten my mother's food. If you and I say it's delicious, people won't believe it. Only they try it. I really think this dish cooked by my mother is good. The chance of coming over to buy our food will increase.

You must think it's a luxury for your mother to do this, giving good food to others for free. But if you want to do business, you have to invest first. "

Chen Changsheng's words inspired Dafu. Dafu imitated her cries and shouted loudly. The mother and son attracted many people who went to the market.

Not far away, a woman walked toward her. Chen Changsheng saw that the woman was neatly dressed and had no patches on her clothes. She did not look like a villager.

The woman walked into Chen Changsheng's stall, picked up a handful of ground vegetables and looked around, "Sister-in-law, what are you selling? What kind of vegetables? Why is it so slippery to the touch?"

"Sister-in-law, these are ground vegetables. My son and I just picked them from the mountains yesterday. They are very fresh and cost five cents per pound. If you want more, they can be cheaper."

Chen Changsheng just saw other vegetable farmers selling ordinary vegetables for three cents per catty.

This ground vegetable is different from ordinary green vegetables, and she worked hard all morning to carry it to the city to sell it, so naturally it cannot be sold for less than three cents.

The mother-in-law smelled the ground vegetables and said, "It's quite fresh, but I don't know how to eat it?"

"You take it home, wash it and drain the water, pour some oil into the pot, first add the ginger, garlic and chili segments, stir-fry until fragrant, then add the ground vegetables and stir-fry evenly, and finally add some salt to season. Remove from the pan.

If you cook it this way, your host will be able to eat three bowls of rice. Whether it's with rice or with porridge, it's great. "

Chen Changsheng introduced the cooking method of ground vegetables smoothly, and she was not worried about others learning the skills. After all, there was no chili at this time, so the original taste could not be reproduced.

The woman's eyes suddenly lit up when she heard that she could serve rice with porridge.
