Chapter 1173 Chili Oil
Zhang Yanping still had to deal with his own emotional issues, but the winter bamboo shoots of each family needed to be sorted by his seventh cousin:
"Pick out the ones that are not broken and have roots separately - Tantan, find a box to put them in, and take it with you when you leave."
"Remember, go back and find a pile of sand to bury the winter bamboo shoots, just like burying carrots, they can be kept for a long time."
"If there is no sand pile, find some sand and find a bucket at home to put them in, and they can also be kept for a long time... If nothing else, at least you can ensure that every meal is fresh."
It's not necessary to keep it for a long time. I don't believe that you can't eat it quickly when you go home.
Everyone took note of this, but Qi Lin shook his head: "I won't take it. I have to change trains to go home. Because the trains are different, it will take a whole night, and I have to walk a long way... It's inconvenient."
His family is a typical yellow land, and there is only an elderly grandfather still in the village, and that place is even poorer than Yunqiao Village, because there are no mountain and water resources.
Not to mention transportation.
So it is really hard to transport winter bamboo shoots.
Yan Ran, on the other hand, although she is a girl, her family is well-off. No matter how many things she carries, it is only a little hard inside the station. Her family will come to help her out of the station.
Tang Xiaodong is even more so. Although he is a young man from a small town, the transportation in the small town is not bad.
Song Tan couldn't help but feel entangled: "I also prepared radishes and cabbages for you. If you can't take them away, it will be uneconomical to send them by express delivery..."
This is basically the highlight of the year-end bonus, but it is a pity that it can't be taken away because of transportation.
Wu Lan asked: "Xiao Qi, your grandfather is old. Can he stay in your hometown alone? Otherwise, you can bring him next year. Don't you have a dormitory? You can live together."
"Yes, yes, yes." Song Sancheng also nodded.
Qi Lin is a child of ordinary background, but he is a good person. It is said that children of poor families grow up early. He is steady in everything he does, which is in line with the preferences of the older generation.
Qi Lin shook his head helplessly: "My grandfather has the same old idea. Fallen leaves return to their roots and cannot leave their hometown."
Before, he was thinking about learning some cattle-raising techniques and teaching them to his grandfather, but the transportation is inconvenient. If the cattle are uncomfortable, his grandfather will get anxious and angry and cause something bad. It is better to keep the status quo.
In short, it is difficult.
If it were not for making money, he might have returned to his hometown to work.
But the seventh cousin is old and can empathize with this idea. At this moment, he is thinking: "Then I will bring you some food back, so that the old man can eat more at home."
"Tan Tan, give me more of the good vegetable seeds prepared by Professor Song. This is convenient to bring, and you can have a place to eat at home next year."
Song Sancheng was still muttering beside him: "I'll go to the warehouse to see if there is more food that doesn't take up space. It's not easy for children to go out..."
Qi Lin listened silently and relaxed, with slightly red eyes.
After experiencing such a simple atmosphere, how could he stay in the laboratory?
So Zhang Yanping's matter was completely forgotten. After he dressed up carefully and went downstairs, he found that everyone was busy putting things into the plastic bags.
So he leaned over to take a look -
Dried fish pieces, dried small fish, dried shrimp, dried tofu, salted duck eggs, bacon, marinade packets, tea leaves, dried radish shreds, dried cowpeas...
There were only a few pieces of underwear in the 28-inch large suitcase, and the rest were all stuffed full of plastic bags, and there was no room for anything else.
Song Tan also emphasized beside him: "This is your year-end bonus, there is nothing else..."
What else do you want with these?
Qi Lin didn't know whether to laugh or cry, and felt that his heart was full of emotion.
After he took out his backpack and stuffed a bag of black fungus into it, Uncle Qi suddenly remembered:
"Ouch! I said I would make you some chili oil, but I almost forgot - hurry up, Song Tan, clean up the stone mortar!"
"Qiao Qiao, take out all our dried chilies!"
"Wulan, Wulan - where did you put your gloves, masks, etc?"
When he said this, everyone slurped and drooled.
After all, the old Song family's chilies are paired with the old Song family's sesame seeds, and with the several kinds of spices carefully selected and introduced by Professor Song, after the master of Uncle Qi's control of the heat and oil temperature...
Don't dare to think about it!
Professor Song was even the first to speak: "Don't use a bottle for me, it's too heavy, use a plastic bag for me, pack a few bags, and I'll carry them back in my backpack."
Old Mrs. Tang was also a little eager to try, the chili oil was really delicious, but hemorrhoids...
Alas, a person as elegant as her, as old as her and Old Song, shouldn't have mentioned this. But it is true...
"Why don't you just take two bottles."
"I'll only stay at home for 10 days or half a month to celebrate the New Year, keep one bottle for myself and one bottle for the children."
This chili oil is very spicy, and I don't eat too much at each meal, so two large bottles are enough.
But...
The seventh cousin suddenly turned his head: "This chili oil needs to be kept for a day, when do you buy your tickets?"
Everyone looked at each other.
So... everyone is basically buying tomorrow, just early and late, but they must go to the station in advance.
In the end, Tang Xiaodong grumbled: "I need to bring radishes, cabbages and many other things. Two suitcases can't hold them all... Can you make this chili oil today and send it by express tomorrow after we leave?"
It should be able to be preserved and not be afraid of bumps.
The important thing is that the courier fee is not too expensive.
"It just happens to be together with the pork." Yan Ran couldn't agree more - no one was willing to eat the 20 kilograms of pork in the year-end bonus alone, and everyone wanted to take it home.
It's just not convenient to pack it, so it has to be shipped back by Fengfeng Express.
As for the courier fee... Now I can only pray that Brother Zhang will give me a little discount for the sake of being an old customer...
Yan Ran thought about it and really wanted to drive to work directly after the New Year, otherwise when I come across good things later, I can't always rely on express delivery!
This year, the sales of chili sauce are high, and the number of chili peppers is also high. Naturally, the current inventory of dried chili peppers is also sufficient. Song Tan didn't feel reluctant, but just repeatedly warned:
"When pounding chili peppers, be sure to wear glasses!"
"And when washing chili peppers, never take off the gloves."
To make chili oil, you need to use lantern peppers and erjingtiao, because they will be very fragrant. But these two are also amazingly spicy in the old Song family.
After she gave the order, she always felt that something was overlooked. Who would have thought that as soon as he turned around, he saw Zhang Yanping dressed in a decent suit...
Oh! It turned out to be such a big deal!
Looking at Xin Jun again, he put down the bamboo shoots in his hand and waved to Zhang Yanping:
"It's not three o'clock yet, I have to tell you a few things first..."
