C8 Plum Scene Self-introduction

After eating her fill, Mei Jing returned to her dilapidated room.

He took out the silver taels that he got from selling the rabbits from the pouch at his waist.

He saw something yellow and white fall out of the bag with a 'gulping' sound.

"Eh? "What is this?" Mei Jing picked it up and examined it closely.

It was something like a small seal, with a snake and a bird circling it.

It looked pretty good, but Mei Jing wasn't an ignorant person. She could tell at a glance that the seal was made of stone and not jade. She couldn't sell it for much silver, so she threw it to the side and picked up the silver again.

Little did she know that the item she casually tossed into the corner was a treasure that would make people fight over!

Mei Jing looked at the pieces of silver in her hands, weighing them casually. There were about one or two of them.

Since she already had some money, Mei Jing wanted to do something that could make money.

However, the thought of making money just surfaced in her mind, causing Mei Jing to be troubled again. What was she supposed to do to sell it in the town? If the iced water was suitable for selling and roasting in the summer, she only had a silver tael from Soong Goudan for the rabbit.

Forget it, let's go to the town first and buy some rice, grain, oil, and salt. Then, I'll come back and slowly think about it.

This one tael of silver was enough for the mother and daughter to eat for a long time.

Mei Jing put away the silver and covered herself with a quilt to sleep.

The next morning, Mei Jing went out with a tael of silver. At first, Madame Rong didn't agree to let her go to town alone, but when Mei Jing said she had an appointment with someone else, she agreed without thinking too much. Before leaving, Mei Jing told Madame Rong that she had to bring a good kitchen knife with her wherever she went. Who knew if that trashy Mei Laoer would suddenly jump out and cause trouble?

"Don't worry, Mother knows." "Take these two rice balls and eat on the road." Madame Rong came out from the house and handed two rice balls to Ye Wen, "Even if you go to town, Mom won't be able to stop you, but you stubborn girl, Mom won't be able to stop you. Go early and come back early, okay? "

"Mother, I know. I will bring you some pork meat when I get back!" Mei Jing took the rice ball and ran. If she was late, she might not be able to catch the oxcart.

Madame Rong looked a little worried. "You little girl, slow down your pace!" Don't fall! "

Mei Jing had always been a hedonist. She would rather spend two cents on an oxcart than walk all the way to town on two legs like most people. Fortunately, she was wearing Madame Rong's bamboo hat when she came out, which prevented people from seeing her face, otherwise, this Meigen Village would send out a whole bunch of rumors, saying that she was a fool that stole money to ride in an ox-cart!

The closest town to the Meigen Village was the Hundred Flowers Town. After Mei Jing arrived at the Hundred Flowers Town, she slowly strolled between the many bustling bazaars. She was not in a hurry to buy the ingredients that she needed, but wanted to see what kind of food the bazaar in the town had. After writing down the matters that she had investigated, Mei Jing found a relatively decent restaurant. After spending fifty coins to order two dishes and a bowl of rice, she sat down at the table and started to think. There was a lot of time in the future, so she had to save up enough money to discuss about opening a snack bar.

Just as Mei Jing was eating, the sound of something being smashed suddenly came from upstairs, followed by a fat figure rolling down. He shouted at the waiter with a swollen face: "Where's Chef Su? Not yet? "

The waiter shrunk his neck. "Chef Su said that it's a matter of our Jufu Tavern, so they won't interfere …"

"Aiyo, hey, that's done for. Chef Su is not here, who's going to cook and wait on these few old men!" Go find it for me! "Find a chef who can cook delicious meals, but don't come back if you can't find anyone!" The manager howled in grief.

As Mei Jing ate and listened to him downstairs, her eyes immediately lit up. That's right! She could definitely find a part-time worker to earn some money now, or directly settle down in Jufu Tavern to be a chef! Putting everything else aside, there should at least be several hundred dollars in a month, right?

Thinking about that, as if she was on stimulants, Mei Jing rushed forward to support the shopkeeper, and said in a friendly tone, "Shopkeeper, can I help you? I've cooked delicious food, that's what everyone says! "

In her previous life, Mei Jing had been a chef at a five-star restaurant. When her grandfather was still alive, he had owned a small restaurant. Even though the restaurant was small, but it had all eight main Chinese dishes. Mei Jing knew how to cook a lot of dishes even with her grandfather's help, experience, and being forced to study by him.

The shopkeeper rubbed his sore butt and looked suspiciously at Mei Jing's skinny body. He suddenly sneered. "Go go go, little girl, what the hell do you know? Look at your skinny arm, I'm afraid you can't even shake it!"

"Shopkeeper, if you don't let me try, how would you know that I won't? Just give me a chance, okay? You won't be able to find a chef anytime soon anyway. If I can't do it, I don't want to pay, okay? " Now that she had the opportunity to make money, Mei Jing definitely had to recommend herself.

Looking at Mei Jing's bright and confident eyes, the shopkeeper carefully considered for a moment. He gritted his teeth and pushed Mei Jing away, saying, "Go away, Liu Wu, take the girl to the kitchen!" "Little girl, I'm warning you, don't play any tricks on me. If there's anything wrong with eating your cooking, be careful of your skin!"

"Alright!"

Mei Jing's eyes curved into a smile as she followed behind the six dogs into the kitchen.

Standing beside the earth stove, she couldn't help but reach out her hand to touch it. A few sparkles appeared in her eyes. She recalled how her grandfather had stirred up the wok next to the earth stove in her previous life and swore in her heart that she would never stubbornly pursue learning in the West, that she would never waste her life on her family! She will definitely take good care of Madame Rong!

"Uncle, do you have any food for the night?" Mei Jing rubbed the corners of her eyes and turned around with a smile to ask the two chefs who were preparing to watch a show.

Mei Jing's request stunned the two chefs, they pointed to a corner, "The leftover food I sold last night was there, I didn't spoil the day. Little girl, what are you going to cook? Uncle can remind you, don't think about going to the battlefield after learning two or three moves. The people upstairs are hard to serve. It's been two or three days since they came to our restaurant, so all sorts of dishes are not to their liking. If your food breaks the stomachs of those people upstairs, pay attention to your head! "

"Thank you uncle, I know my limits." Mei Jing grinned and ran to the corner of the room to bring the supper pot over. Mei Jing smelt it. Fortunately, it was winter and there was no bad taste in it. It could be used to make Egg Fried Rice.

Mei Jing ran up and down the kitchen, finally getting her ingredients ready.

A large plate of carrots.

A platter of onion filaments.

There was also a plate of pork chops into foam and five round eggs.

The shopkeeper ran in and saw Mei Jing still standing by the stove, mulling over her emotions. He was so anxious that he almost fell down. "Hurry up, make whatever dishes you have. The people upstairs have already started to ruin the scene!"

"Oh! "Alright, uncle, you should go and comfort the customer's emotions. It's almost done!" Mei Jing replied. Without wasting any more time, she made the kitchen attendant light up a fire and scooped up a spoonful of lard …
