A man travels through time and becomes a widow, only wanting to pursue a career

"The old man in the city praised my mother for your careful and conscientious work and the excellent basket weaving. He said that I would like to buy one of your baskets for five hundred coins." Chen Changsheng was afraid that the old lady would misunderstand that eight baskets cost ten taels of silver, so he quickly explained.

"Five hundred coins? That's a lot! But why did you give me ten taels of silver?" No matter how uneducated I am, I still know how much eight coins cost.

Chen Changsheng said seriously, "The master wants to add eighty more baskets, ten of each of the eight styles sent in the morning. So I gave an additional six taels as a deposit."

Mrs. Chen's eyes widened, surprised and delighted. Eighty baskets, how much would that cost?

Thanks to the rich wife in front of me, if it weren't for her, how could my broken basket have been sold for so much money?

Old Mrs. Chen held Chen Changsheng's wrist tightly, and she was a little incoherent with excitement, "Boss, wife, if it weren't for you, eh. Thanks to you, eh. This money is too much."

Chen Changsheng interrupted her and put the money into Mrs. Chen's hand, "Mom, we are all a family, so you can say thank you or not. There are only eighty baskets. I'm afraid you won't be able to handle them all by yourself. , do you have to find someone to go with you?"

Old Mrs. Chen put back her excitement and nodded, "We have to find someone. I think the second and third wives are good, and Daju and Erju are also good with their hands, so they are suitable for this job."

Old Mrs. Chen weaves rattan baskets at home every day. Even if the women in the family don't know how to do it, they can learn how to do it. As long as they give you some pointers, the craftsmanship they produce is basically the same as hers, and if you have more people, you may have more ideas.

Chen Changsheng doesn't care who he chooses to compile it. Old Mrs. Chen knows the importance and can arrange it.

After talking about the basket, Chen Changsheng thought about something, "Mom, I want to trouble you with something."

"No matter what, we are all one family."

"If you go into the mountains these days, you can help me look for pine oil in the mountains. If you encounter it, help me cut some of it back."

"What do you want pine oil for?" Old Mrs. Chen asked curiously.

"Isn't my family in the food business? During the day, the whole family goes to the city, and we only have time to work at night. The house is dark and I can't see anything, so I just want to get some pine oil to light a lamp."

Old Mrs. Chen said, "This is easy to handle. Brothers Youjin and Youyin go to the mountains every day. I will explain to them when I get back and bring them back to you tomorrow."

"Mom, the rice is ready. Do you want to cook today?" Chen Dafu's voice sounded.

Chen Changsheng replied, "Fried." He turned to Mrs. Chen with a smile and said, "Mom, you can have dinner with us today."

Mrs. Chen waved her hands hurriedly, "No, no, my second wife has cooked."

This eldest daughter-in-law is sending meat and money today. How can she, an old woman, have the nerve to stay for dinner?

Chen Changsheng tried his best to say nothing, but Mrs. Chen insisted on going back. When Chen Changsheng wasn't paying attention, the old lady jumped out of the door and fled back to her old house.

**

The Chen family cooked a large pot of brown rice tonight, and it was enough to stir-fry two side dishes, one was stir-fried pork with chili pepper, and the other was stir-fried wild vegetables.

The wild vegetables were stuffed in by Aunt Ma when she just came to deliver the ground vegetables. She said that Tiedan and Dongmei brought some back from boredom in the mountains in the afternoon.

Chen Changsheng was not polite to Aunt Ma either. Taking it and eating it was the best respect for Aunt Ma.

She bought three taels of chili peppers in her bracelet, and the system randomly gave her some ginger and garlic that she had not yet finished eating.

After preparing the side dishes, Chen Dafu was ready to stir-fry. This time, he was in charge of the cooking, while Chen Changsheng was guiding.

Chen Changsheng wanted to work on the stove himself, but his eldest son insisted on practicing cooking. He said that cooking was too smelly of oily fumes and that women would get old easily if they often did it.

If Chen Dafu could learn it, he would be able to cook for the whole family and be filial to his mother.

Seeing my mother walking back and forth from the city on two legs every day, she was reluctant to ride in a bullock cart, but she was willing to let the brothers and sisters ride in the cart. How could there be such a good mother in the world.

Mom, it’s so hard!

Little did Chen Changsheng know what his eldest son was thinking. It wasn't that she didn't want to take the bus, but that the broken system only supported calories.

Since the eldest son is willing to learn to cook, and Chen Changsheng has good cooking skills, he can pass on his good skills so that they will not go to waste, and it will be easier for a man to find a wife if he learns to cook.

Even though it is popular in this life for women to cook, men will basically not step into the kitchen.

But men’s cooking can help build a harmonious relationship between husband and wife, promote family harmony, and enhance family happiness.

You can achieve multiple things with one stone, so why not do it.

Chen Changsheng directed Dafu to put some lard in the pot to melt, add ginger and garlic to stir-fry, then add half a pound of marinated pork slices and stir-fry. When the meat changes color slightly, add some light soy sauce and stir-fry. It can be poured out evenly.

Leave some base oil in the pot, add the chili peppers and start stir-frying until the tiger skin looks like it, then add the fried meat together and stir-fry evenly.

Although Chen Dafu was a little in a hurry, the fried pork with chili pepper was ready.

He took a strong sniff and couldn't believe that this fragrant chili-fried pork came from his own hands.

With this skill, can he become a chef in a restaurant?

This cannot be paired with two bowls of rice, and the fried pork with chili is no match.

Next is the stir-fried wild vegetables. For this dish, Chen Dafu Hui just pours the wild vegetables into the pot and stir-fries. It is very simple.

But every time I made it, it tasted terrible, and for some reason my mother's fried ones had the smell of lard.

Chen Dafu was about to throw the vegetables off the pot when he was stopped by Chen Changsheng, "Although it is easy to stir-fry wild vegetables, if you want to make them more delicious than usual, you must add oil."

Chen Changsheng scooped up a spoonful of lard and threw it down from the pan. "You don't need too much oil, just one spoonful is enough. The fishy smell of oil will make the fried wild vegetables fragrant. What are you doing here? Pour the garlic in."

The white lard melted in the pot, and the aroma of the oil immediately hit his face. Chen Dafu quickly poured in the garlic and stir-fried, and then poured a large basket of wild vegetables into the pot.

Chen Changsheng increased the firepower, and the wild vegetables "sizzled" in the pot. Chen Dafu slowly stir-fried the wild vegetables, frying out the water in the wild vegetables. The wild vegetables were wrapped in lard, and they were green and looked like... Very tempting.

Stir-fried wild vegetables are also available.

Chen Erlu and Sanshou Sixi washed their hands and prepared to come over to help serve the dishes and rice.

Because the weather was getting hotter and hotter, the Chen family simply moved the tables and chairs out of the main room and ate directly in the courtyard.

Chen Sanshou was holding the fried pork with chili and drooling, "This stir-fried pork with chili is so fragrant. I can mix three bowls of rice with just this chili!"

Chen Sixi was responsible for frying the wild vegetables, "Why do the wild vegetables today still smell like lard? I remember that the wild vegetables my eldest brother cooked before were a bit irritating. Why is the craftsmanship so good today?"

She still doesn't forget the wild vegetable paste her elder brother cooked half a month ago. After one bite, there are always one or two wild vegetables hanging in her throat.

Chen Dafu was a little embarrassed to be praised. He owes his good skills to his mother and her good guidance.
