Farm Girl Turns Everything Around: Sly Husband, Let’s Farm

Chapter 121: Chapter 121: Braised Chicken Feet

Translator: 549690339

By the time they arrived home, it was already pitch dark. After eating the meals provided by Shopkeeper He, Qiao Xiaomai started to cook braised chicken feet.

Since they had already eaten the chili pepper taken from the dimension, she didn’t use any chili.

She first boiled the chicken feet in a pot, then took them out and poured out the water from the pot.

Refilling it with water, she placed a bundle of scallions, ginger, and anise together with the chicken feet into the pot to boil. After the chicken feet were done, she added soy sauce for color, continued boiling it for a bit, and the braised chicken feet were ready.

This was the simplest method, but the taste wasn’t bad. The chicken feet completely melted in the mouth, bones and meat easily separating with a gentle bite.

Qiao Xiaomai stood by the stove, chewing on three before she stopped.

Qiao Dami also enjoyed it, his face smeared with pot liquor and didn’t bother to wipe it away.

Qiao Changshun ate several of them, praising, “Xiaomai, your cooking skills are getting better and better.”

Qiao Xiaomai nodded, that was natural.

However, if she had chili, it would be even better.

“Take these chicken feet to the Zuixian Building tomorrow. Sell them for one copper coin each. See if Shopkeeper Zhou wants them.”

As for the Extreme Flavor House, because of what Shopkeeper He said about the dowry, she didn’t want to go there for the time being.

“Okay.” Qiao Changshun nodded. There were over 100 of them, and the three of them couldn’t finish all. They definitely needed to sell them.

After the three family members had the chicken feet, they simply washed up and plunged to their respective rooms to sleep.

Without the need to make tofu, Qiao Xiaomai and Qiao Changshun slept in until dawn. Since they ran out of steamed buns, Qiao Xiaomai made fried cakes for breakfast, fed the chicks, put the chicken feet into earthen jars, and the three of them rode the donkey cart to town.

Yesterday, during the tofu making, Shopkeeper He had said that the donkey was given to Qiao Xiaomai. From this point on, this donkey cart had become an asset of the Qiao Family.

Upon arriving in town, the three headed straight to Zuixian Building.

The chicken feet had soaked in the brine overnight, further absorbed its flavor, and completely lost the brackish taste. After tasting one, Shopkeeper Zhou immediately said, “I’ll take both jars of these.”

There were a total of 100 chicken feet in the two jars, which amounted to 100 copper coins. Qiao Xiaomai only took 50 copper coins, then asked with slight embarrassment, “Shopkeeper, can you exchange these 50 copper coins for steamed buns?”

The Sun Family wanted white flour, but she would purposefully only give them white steamed buns.

She didn’t believe that the Sun Family would carry a basket to the town to sell white steamed buns.

Even if the Sun Family had this intention, Qiao Qinghe would definitely not agree.

Shopkeeper Zhou was momentarily stunned, but quickly nodded, “No problem.”

The Zuixian Building, as a restaurant, also steamed white buns. Two for one copper coin, so 50 copper coins would be 100 buns.

He ordered someone to get a clean hemp sack and bagged up the 100 steamed buns.

He then discussed with Qiao Xiaomai about the small business of the braised chicken feet. Qiao Xiaomai would collect the chicken feet every three days, cook them, and then deliver them.

After leaving the Zuixian Building, Qiao Xiaomai went to the fabric store to buy two sets of linen clothes for Qiao Qing and the Sun Family.

She wouldn’t give them the fabric. If the Sun Family sold the ready-made clothes, she definitely wouldn’t give them anymore next time.

Even if it was to show respect to the elders, one cannot keep buying things all the time. Her own family stuff was not all together yet.

After buying the clothes, the family went to buy eggs and grass carps before driving the donkey cart back home.

Once home, Qiao Xiaomai and Qiao Dami went to the mountains to gather firewood; after Qiao Changshun planted the chili peppers, he started making the wooden boxes needed for sprouting soybeans. If they planned to sprout soybeans on a large scale in the future, they needed to be prepared.

For lunch, they had the delicious boiled fish again, but this time Qiao Xiaomai served a bowl to Qiao Qing and let Qiao Changshun stay at home for lunch. She and Qiao Dami then went to the old court of the Qiao Family..
