Chapter 55
No room for
There are three people in the family, and Linzhi made ten dishes. This thing is not easy to store, so it is best to cook and eat it right away.
The round dish dumplings were neatly placed on the plate, emitting a burst of fragrance. With the golden color, Nie Chong's saliva was about to come down. "Sister-in-law, you are so amazing. You will make it once in the hospital."
"I don't know if it's delicious, so I'll try it first."
After all, I have to sell it, and taste is the most important. Linzhi also put one into her bowl as she said.
Although Linzhi usually cooks at Nie's house, she basically cooks porridge and soy milk. Nie Chong ate the things she made with her own hands for the first time. He couldn't wait to take a bite and was immediately amazed. Before he could swallow it, he praised, "It tastes so delicious, it's better than what I bought outside."
He always talks sweetly, and Lin Zhi didn't take it too seriously, but took a bite by himself.
This dish looks ordinary, but the skin on the outside is soft and sweet. When paired with the shepherd's purse inside, it tastes really good because the added sesame oil tastes much better than the dish dish I bought in the hospital before.
It may also be because I worked hard to make it, so it tastes even more delicious.
Linzhi wanted to ask Nie Shujun, but when she turned around, she encountered his sight. The latter nodded and said surely, "It's delicious."
The two brothers not only talked, but also left no room for action. Nie Chong and Nie Shujun ate four of them, and Linzhi had a small appetite and only ate two of them. However, the things they made were so popular, and they were still very satisfied.
After receiving the recognition of the two, Linzhi is much more confident. If such a dish is sold, someone should have bought it, right?
After the taste problem is solved, another difficult problem is transportation.
Although it is summer now, even the hottest dish dumplings will be cooler when they are taken to the county town, and the taste will be greatly reduced. Therefore, before making them, Linzhi must first solve the problem of insulation.
There is no insulated foam box yet. After thinking about it, Linzhi could only cover it with a quilt and put a clean cloth inside. In this way, even if a morning passes, the dish dumplings will still be hot.
The cloth is easy to handle, but where can I find such a small quilt, and it must be clean.
I can only do it myself.
Linzhi thought of Aunt Wu, but she had to work during the day, so she could only promise to guide her to sew quilts at night.
When making quilts, you need to prepare cloth and cotton. Linzhi took advantage of the day to go to the supply and marketing cooperative in the town. There are everything from food to clothing.
I didn’t expect that the first time I bought cloth after rebirth was to make a quilt.
Linzhi looked at the colorful materials on the counter and couldn't help but feel a little moved. As soon as she asked about the price, she couldn't help but retreat.
A better material costs nearly ten yuan per foot of cloth, not to mention wages, which is not something she can afford now.
"How much is your cheapest cotton cloth?"
The clerk raised his eyelids disdainfully and pointed to the white cloth on the edge, "One foot and three pieces, don't touch it if you don't buy it."
One foot is about three meters away. Linzhi touched it for a moment and it didn't seem to be very fleshy. It's just that the material is too white and no one can use it to make clothes.
She simply asked for one and a half feet. After making the quilt, it should be enough to make a top. She couldn't stand it if she wore long sleeves in this weather.
Then Linzhi bought some cotton and needlework, so that everything was ready.
After dinner in the evening, Aunt Wu came over. There were only Yang Wangsheng and her at home, so it was definitely not suitable for Linzhi to go there.
"Making a quilt is quite simple, just the stitches must be dense, otherwise the cotton will come out."
Although the white quilt looks clean, the all-white ones are not good-looking. Linzhi picked a few flowers from the fabric she picked up and prepared to sew them as the front, which looked festive.
The table outside asked Nie Chong to do his homework, Lin Zhi brought Aunt Wu to her room. She first spread the lining on the bed, and then spread the cotton. "The cotton must be pressed neatly, then cover the cloth on the front and sewed the four sides together."
If you are not strong enough, you can sew a few more stitches in the middle so that the cotton won't run away.
It sounds like you can do it with your hands, but this night is really a bit eye-consuming. Linzhi was about to ask Aunt Wu to go out for a cup of tea, but when she got up again tomorrow morning, she saw the other person rubbing his temples with his hands.
She walked up and said, "Aunt Wu, are you feeling uncomfortable?"
"Maybe it was because the weather was hot recently and there was some heat stroke, and the old problem was caused again."
"Do you have a headache?"
"I'm old and I always have problems with my health. I'll boil some herbs in two days and drink them."
Lin Zhi did not respond, but just helped the person to the main hall first, then poured a cup of tea for Aunt Wu, "Do you can't sleep at night?"
Aunt Wu nodded, "Maybe it's hot, so I tossed and turned and couldn't sleep at night."
"How is that feeling?"
"I can't sleep well, can I feel good?" Aunt Wu glanced at her helplessly.
"I took the liberty to ask..." Because Nie Chong was doing his homework next to him, Lin Zhi could only come to her ear and ask her if she was menopause.
"How do you know?" At this time, Aunt Wu realized something was wrong. Why did Lin Zhi know even about her?
Linzhi bent her lips, "I know a little bit of medical skills. If you can trust me, I can help you take your pulse."
"You can still take the pulse?" Aunt Wu immediately stretched out her arm, very interested, "Then show it to me."
Linzhi put her hand on her wrist, and Aunt Wu's pulse was similar to what she imagined. "It should be because she was too tired before and fell into the root of the disease. I can prescribe a prescription for you to condition it. As long as you are willing to drink it, it will get better slowly."
"Drink Chinese medicine?" Thinking of the smell, Aunt Wu frowned in disgust.
"You can drink the medicine bitterly for three consecutive days after you go back, and you should see the effect. Then just take a period of rest and it will get better."
During this period, Aunt Wu helped her a lot, and Linzhi didn't have much to repay. She quickly wrote down the prescription and explained the methods and taboos of taking the medicine. As for whether Aunt Wu would believe it, that was her business.
After resting for a day, Lin Zhi dared to continue to delay his work. The next day he got up early. According to Aunt Wu, he first neatly sewed the four corners of the quilt, and then sewed the four sides little by little.
This was a meticulous job. Linzhi sewed it for almost a morning, and her hands were sore before she finally sewed a quilt.
Although it is not particularly good-looking, she still feels a sense of pride in her heart, and her needlework seems to have improved a lot compared to last time.
Linzhi folded the quilt and was about to go to cook in the fire when she heard a knock on the door outside, "Is anyone here?"
