Chapter 16 The chicken is dead

Zhenyuan Shopping Mall is not a very prosperous shopping mall, nor is it a gathering place for luxury goods, but it is the most special and popular shopping mall in Chengdu.

It has little to do with the brands settled in and the area occupied. The main thing is that it has the largest fruit and vegetable market in Chengdu.

In other shopping malls, the first floor is a valuable area, and the only ones that can take advantage of the space are either luxury stores or jewelry stores. But Zhenyuan Mall is different. Its entire first floor has been used by the management to open a new store.

Vegetable market.

It was not even four o'clock when Wang Quan arrived by car, but there were already many people in the mall.

Compared with traditional vegetable markets, which are chaotic and full of sewage, the Zhenyuan Fruit and Vegetable Market is well-managed.

The aerial photography lens of the drone looks down from above. The entire space on the first floor is divided into a double-row "G" shape. The gap is the main entrance where Wang Quan is currently standing.

Entering from the right side of the door, it is divided into three sections. The arc-shaped one is the fruit and vegetable section, the grain, oil and non-staple food section, and the condiment section, which were carefully labeled with green signs in the later stage.

The short vertical section of the "g" is red, and the items sold are mostly meat products.

The short horizontal area in the center is the aquatic products area, which is located in the corner of the exit and is distinguished from other sections by a blue texture.

Wang Xiaoyu, who was standing at the door, felt a little embarrassed. She squeezed the corners of Wang Quan's clothes tightly and did not dare to walk into the market for a while.

"Dad, there are so many people!"

She was ambitious to show everyone her new dress on the way, but when she arrived at her destination, she found that the market was crowded with people beyond her imagination.

"It's okay, hold daddy's hand." Wang Quan reached out and took his daughter's hand that was holding the corner of her clothes, and led her toward the market.

Although Wang Xiaoyu was trying his best to raise his arms, Wang Quan's height was really much higher than hers, so he had to stoop slightly. Looking from behind, Wang Quan's figure was tilted towards his daughter's side.

The whole person seemed to have turned into an arc.

"The mushrooms just picked today are very fresh when fried or boiled. The quantity is limited, first come first served!"

"Home-grown radish, without any chemical fertilizer additives, tastes sweet~"

"We sell vegetables, cucumbers, persimmons, peppers, garlic, melons, leeks, potato seeds..."

As soon as Qing entered the market, she heard the shouts of various vegetable sellers. At first glance, she saw that there were small business owners selling a single dish, as well as large vegetable sellers who wholesaled all kinds of dishes.

But no matter whether the stalls were large or small, they were all arranged neatly, and some rotten vegetable leaves and bad fruits were also thrown into the trash can. What was not thrown away was everywhere.

Wang Quan led his daughter to the first stall selling mushrooms, and the camera teacher who followed him took a close-up of the booth.

The mushrooms on the table are roughly divided into two piles. The gray pile is mostly artificially grown shiitake mushrooms and oyster mushrooms. This pile is slightly differentiated according to species and is spread out on the table for anyone to choose from.

Another pile of mushrooms was placed in a glass cabinet with the eye-catching words "Poisonous, you can select them at this stall and then go to the designated merchant for processing before they are eaten or packaged back."

"It's so beautiful," Wang Xiaoyu said happily, pointing to the colorful umbrella-shaped mushrooms in the glass cabinet. This may be the nature of little girls. When they were young, they liked these colorful mushrooms, and sometimes they also like them when they grow up.

I like some yellow hair, red hair and the like.

Wang Quan patiently pointed to the words on the glass display case and explained to her, "These are poisonous mushrooms. They need to be processed by professionals before they can be eaten. My father can't even buy them back."

The owner of the mushroom stall weighed half a catty of mushrooms as he requested and handed them over. She smiled at Wang Xiaoyu and said, "Your skirt is also very beautiful, as beautiful as this mushroom."

Wang Xiaoyu looked along her finger and saw a mushroom with a white stem and a red umbrella. It was indeed so gorgeous that she was a little shy for a moment.

"Say thank you." Wang Quan took the mushrooms and shook his daughter's arm to teach her.

"Thank you", unlike her shy behavior, she said her thanks loudly, which even surprised the mushroom stall owner.

After waving goodbye with his daughter, Wang Quan set his sights on the large stalls, where the dishes were more complete and the appearance was relatively better and fresher.

Jiang Yi went to record a new song today, so he planned to make some sumptuous dishes in the evening, with a more northern taste. Chicken stewed with mushrooms was a hard dish in the plan.

In addition, we should also pay attention to the combination of meat and vegetables, and make some cold dishes, such as blueberry yam, lotus pond stir-fry, and other cold dishes, vegetarian dishes, which my wife and children like to eat. At the same time, it can maintain the nutritional balance of Wang Xiaoyu's diet.

Finally, he planned to make spicy Maoxuewang for himself as a reward for being a stay-at-home dad.

Considering that there were too many types of dishes required to make these dishes, he took Wang Xiaoyu to push a shopping cart and threw in the mushrooms he bought earlier.

"Potatoes, green beans, lotus roots, iron yams..." He selected the required ingredients according to the recipe, and at the same time explained the names of various vegetables to Wang Xiaoyu.

Today, when technology is equally advanced, children have just come into contact with various things in the world, and they also do so through reading. There are picture books with printed pictures and e-books that can make sounds, which can all play a role in enlightening young children.

But Wang Quan feels that a picture album, no matter how colorful it is, cannot broaden her horizons as much as taking her children to the market in person.

Just like those piles of colorful mushrooms, Wang Quan himself is not sure whether he can name them or even tell whether they are edible when he sees them in the wild. But through the teaching just now, he feels that at least his daughter is familiar with poisons.

Mushrooms have a certain impression.

The father and daughter went shopping in the huge market. In less than half an hour, they filled up their shopping carts and left the green fruit and vegetable area for the meat area.

In the poultry department, Wang Quan picked a chicken weighing more than two kilograms and asked the boss to chop it into pieces and process it.

During this period, Wang Xiaoyu was curious about what the hairless animal was. Wang Quan told her it was a chicken, but she still didn't believe it.

"Don't all chickens have feathers?" When she was dreaming at noon, she also dreamed of being chased by a big rooster. Although she was very scared, she still thought the rooster's colorful feathers were very beautiful.

"A living chicken has feathers, but the feathers cannot be eaten, so people clean them off after the chicken dies."

"That's it!"

Wang Xiaoyu didn't know if she understood, but a big round bubble was drawn on the top of her head.
