Dressed As a Mother-in-law, She Leads the Whole Family To Turn Over Chapter 86

Chapter 86: Burning Money

Perhaps sensing her thoughts, An Yongliang sat down and asked gently: "Are you going to send your child to school?"

Jiang Ning nodded and shook his head, "I have this plan, but I haven't chosen a husband yet, so I put it on hold for the time being. It happened that a distant relative came to the family. He went to school, was literate, and needed some things. After staying at my house for a while, people told me that it could enlighten my children. I was eager to ask about pens, inks, paper and inkstones! I didn't expect this thing to be so expensive!

I can't imagine preparing one for each child, and I can't afford that much money. If I only buy one, how should I divide it? "

　　It's not that she is really poor, but she has to pretend to be poor and she knows very well the principle of not showing off her wealth.

An Yongliang nodded with understanding and said thoughtfully: "Since the aunt has not planned to send her children to school, we don't have to pay so much attention to some things, such as this pen. Scholars will compare themselves with each other. When you go to school, you must be like everyone else, and you must be in your own way." You can make it yourself at home, can you get rabbit fur?”

Jiang Ning's eyes lit up and he clenched his fists excitedly, “You mean I got rabbit fur for you and you can help me make a brush?”

An Yongliang nodded, "Yes, as long as you prepare the materials, I can make them for you, and I will charge you ten cents for each item."

"No problem, no problem! I can do this!" Jiang Ning couldn't wait to go back to Yang Han to "order".

Among the pens, inks, paper and inkstones, paper is consumed the fastest, followed by pens. She really doesn't know how to make pens, but she knows a little bit about paper. If it doesn't work, just think of your own way and try a few more times. If you are self-sufficient, ink and inkstones are better. , she can afford it.

An Yongliang also laughed when he saw that his worries turned into joy.

Jiang Ning bought an inkstone and a strip of ink from him, and ordered ten pens. The pens could only be made after An Yongliang handed over Zhao Yuanwai's order.

It just so happened that she could take advantage of this time to prepare the rabbit fur.

In addition to these things, she bought a few pieces of winter cloth. Before leaving, Jiang Ning asked casually: "An shop owner is in the business of scholars. Does he know how many scholars there are in Ping'an County? Which scholar has the best character and knowledge?"

An Yongliang looked up at her in surprise and thought: "There should be eight scholars in Ping'an County. Two of them are already in their sixties. They have already given up the imperial examination and found a job in the county government. Open a private school.

The oldest of the remaining six has also passed his destined age. He has failed many tests and has a weird temperament. When I go to their village to sell goods, I always meet him. He is always talking and talking. It makes my head hurt to hear this guy. You definitely don't like it.

The other five are Gao Xiucai from Gaojiazhuang, Tang Xiucai from the county, An Xiucai from Taohua Village, Lin Xiucai from Songxi Town, and He Xiucai from Mapu.

Songxi Town and Mapo are both too far away. In my opinion, the most suitable one is Tang Xiucai, a high-ranking scholar. As for An Xiucai from Taohua Village, he is a noble man and only teaches people from the An clan. He will not accept any money from outsiders. , and Taohua Village is not close either, so it's not a good choice. "

Hearing this, Jiang Ning's heart sank, "Why is it so difficult to send a child to a private school?"

"It's not difficult! If you ask me, Gao Xiucai and Tang Xiucai are good. The children here will go to their private schools as long as they study." An Yongliang didn't understand why Jiang Ning looked down on these two scholars.

Jiang Ning frowned, sighed, and asked without giving up: "Where are those two in Songxi Town and Mapo?"

An Yongliang shook his head, "I don't know about those two. After all, it's far away from us, and I can't go there to sell goods. But I heard that these two talents are quite young and have a bright future."

Jiang Ning had some concerns in his mind, thanked An Yongliang and left quickly with his things.

When she returned to the village, she first delivered her things to the courtyard of Qingfeng Mountain. As soon as she walked to the door, she saw Yang Xiaohua playing in the sand on the mound outside the courtyard. There was not even a friend around her. She hurriedly shouted, "Xiaohua, Why are you staying here alone?"

Yang Xiaohua threw away the sand in her hand and ran to Jiangning, "Xiaoya from the Three Iron and Four Villages said she wanted to study and read with her husband, and she didn't want to play with me anymore."

Jiang Ning was stunned for a moment, and actually heard the faint sound of reading coming from the yard. He immediately squatted down and touched her head, and asked, "Do you want to study and read with them?" "Can I do it too?" Yang Xiaohua's eyes widened in shock.

Jiang Ning nodded affirmatively.

Yang Xiaohua immediately smiled and nodded her head vigorously.

Jiang Ning led her into the yard and brought Yang Xiaohua to Tian Feng, "This is a child who lives nearby. They are the only family nearby. I asked her to come over and study together and learn to read. If you encounter something, you can call her daddy. Her name is Xiaohua, and her father's name is Yang Han.”

Tian Feng was smart and immediately understood what Jiang Ning meant, and immediately called Yang Xiaohua to come over and study together.

Jiang Ning took the opportunity to take out the things, "You guys can make do with it for a few days. I'll ask someone to help me make a pen. As for the paper, you can use this volume first. I'll see if I can make it myself. If it doesn't work, let's talk about it later."

Several children were so excited when they saw those things that they wanted to touch but dared not touch them. They all looked at Tian Feng.

Tian Feng solemnly put the things into the cabinet in the room and locked it, "We will use it after you start practicing calligraphy."

A group of little kids nodded obediently.

Jiang Ning saw that they were learning well and did not dare to disturb them. After closing the courtyard door, he immediately went to Yang Han's house and ordered two hares from him.

After Yang Han learned that Jiang Ning asked Yang Xiaohua to study with Tian Feng, he went directly into the house and picked up two hares that were still alive and gave them to her, "Giving them to you, no money."

"How can this be done? One thing comes to another, and you have to calculate the money!" Jiang Ning insisted.

Yang Han was not good at politeness. His resolute face froze before he squeezed out two words through his teeth, "Shi Wen."

“What? Ten coins?” What is the difference between this and giving it away for free? Jiang Ning thought Yang Han was teasing her.

Yang Han's stoic face showed no emotion, “It's only ten cents, I won't sell any more.”

Jiang Ning: "."

She had no choice but to give the honest man ten cents in the end. Looking at the two plump hares in the basket, she always felt that she had taken advantage of him. Since he refused to accept the money, she had to skin the rabbits. The remaining rabbit meat was made into a big dish for the children, and another portion was given to Yang Han.

She had never cooked rabbit meat in her previous life, but as soon as she encountered a hare, the system automatically reported a bunch of menus, including a dish of double pepper rabbit, which was very suitable for this kind of weather. She had all the ingredients she needed, so she could make a pot of it.

First, clean the rabbit meat, add ginger, garlic, cooking wine, salt, peppercorns, and mix well. Then add an egg white, add sweet potato starch, and mix well again. When the rabbit meat becomes wet and waxy, cover it with a lid and let it sit for more than an hour. , wash the green and red peppers, prepare two vitex sticks and millet peppers, cut them into cubes and set aside, and prepare the water spinach.

Pour a certain amount of oil into the pot, heat it to 90% heat, and fry the rabbit meat. This step is very critical. The effect of frying directly determines the success or failure of the entire dish. Take out the rabbit meat that has been fried until it is eighty-mature. Filter out the residue, add oil again, add onions, ginger, garlic, Sichuan peppercorns, and vine peppers, stir-fry over medium heat until fragrant, then add green and red peppers and continue to stir-fry, lower the rabbit meat over high heat, continue to stir-fry, finally add the wok, add salt, Stir-fry the MSG twice more, add half a bowl of boiling water, simmer over high heat for two minutes, and a double pepper rabbit is ready.

The smell made him want to eat. Jiang Ning ate a piece of rabbit meat and squinted his eyes happily. He quickly put the rabbit meat into the jar, then put a large pot of multigrain rice, two bamboo tubes of mushroom and egg drop soup, and it was so delicious. Went to the workshop.
