Since the birthday banquet of Zhang Mansion, the first floor has really come into the public eye. Several of its signature dishes, such as boiled chicken and braised meat, are particularly popular. Of course, there is also something that no other restaurant can make.
That's the birthday cake.
Yes, the cake that Tian Minyan made for Mrs. Zhang's birthday at the last minute received unprecedented popularity as soon as it was launched. Especially those with children at home clamored for this cake. Those with wealthy families would inevitably satisfy their children's wishes.
Many people came to order and buy, so the first floor invisibly attracted another business.
It is worth mentioning that Xiaoyun, the daughter of the cook Tongshi, is very talented in making cakes. Tian Minyan taught her step by step and let her play freely. She got started quickly and was able to think of other cakes on her own.
Come in different shapes.
The business on the first floor gradually became stable. Tian Minyan hired two more chefs. One was He Daniu, a man in his forties who had fled, and the other was Zhao Laiwang who had been poached from other restaurants in the county.
Get good food.
During the Mid-Autumn Festival, Tian Minyan and his family all spent time in the county. Only Tian Huaifang came to cause trouble because her daughter suffered a loss at Zhang's birthday party, and was stabbed away by Tian Minyan lukewarmly.
As soon as the Mid-Autumn Festival passed, the weather became colder. Tian Minyan and the others entrusted the shop to shopkeeper Feng, and decided to check the accounts once every half month before returning to Yangmei Village.
Everything in Yangmei Village is still the same, and Baimei's family is also well organized. She only talks less as usual, and Tian Minyan and the others have become accustomed to it.
On that day, the autumn weather was crisp and clear, so Tian Minyan, Tian Huairen, Zhou Gui and others went to the fields to check the growth of the fish in the fields and catch some big ones if they were needed.
"Although the price of fish was higher before the festival, the fish in our field are still small, just two or three, so it is not easy to sell. Now I think in a few days, we will be able to catch some big ones to sell.
." Tian Huairen said with joy as he looked at the fish swimming in the field.
Tian Minyan scattered a handful of young grass in the field and watched the fish happily come up to grab them. She smiled and said: "Dad, look at the big ones now. I haven't eaten fish soup for a long time. Let's catch a few big ones first."
Come up and let’s try it out.”
"You're a foodie, you never forget to eat. Come on, daddy will catch a few for you." Tian Huairen smiled, rolled up his trousers, and actually went to the fields to catch them himself.
"Third Master, let me catch it." Zhou Gui rolled up his trousers, picked up the fish and scoops on the ground, and went to the fields.
"It's okay, I'm just a daughter. If she wants to eat fish, her father will naturally love her." Tian Huairen took the fish scoop, walked carefully in the rice field, spotted one, and fished it up very quickly.
It was a crucian carp with a size of four or five. Tian Minyan was overjoyed when she saw it. Fish farming in rice fields was a success.
Zhou Gui hurriedly took the fish, braided a rope with straw and tied up the fish's mouth. He lifted it up and said with a smile: "Second girl, this crucian carp is probably half a catty. I really didn't expect that fish farming in rice fields can really be done."
It’s done.”
Tian Minyan also took it, lifted it with one finger, hummed, and narrowed her eyes with a smile.
"Tian Laosan, you're just catching fish now? But you've grown up?"
Several people were busy fishing for fish on skewers, when a shout came from the high field ridge behind them.
Tian Minyan turned around and looked, but she saw the old farmers in the village. Old Li and his son were carrying iron hoes, and they called out "Daddy Li" with a smile.
"This girl is greedy, so I caught a few big ones to try." Tian Huairen caught two more, then came back and said, "Dad, you can also take two to try them."
"No, no, no, what's the point? This grass carp can be sold for ten yuan." Old Man Li glanced at the two grass carp in his fish scoop and said with a smile: "Oh, they are not small. The third child,
Your family is going to be prosperous right now, I never thought you could raise fish in the fields."
"It's just a matter of luck." Tian Huairen smiled naively, handed the fish to Zhou Gui to string up, and said with a smile to Old Man Li: "I didn't expect it at the beginning. I must raise this girl, so let's give it a try.
Already."
"It's time for your family to get up. How could anyone else dare to do this? I see that your crops are better than ours, and they produce more ears than ours." Old Man Li said with an envious look on his face.
Look at the calf-high rice.
Ever since Tian Minyan and the others started raising fish in this rice field, when he came to the fields to look at the crops, he would sneak over to see the Tian family. He watched the crops and fish grow together day by day, and he couldn't help but feel envious. Now, seeing the Tian family
His rice has more ears than theirs, which makes him even more envious.
"It's not much different. It just looks better than the summer harvest." Tian Huairen was very humble, but that was not the case at all. Instead, he was filled with great joy and expectation.
"It's much worse. Not only your family, but also your seventh uncle's family, as well as the Luo family and the Zhu family, and the rice fields you set up to raise fish are all doing well. What's the reason for this? I guess, this autumn harvest
Your family's land can harvest two more buckets of rice." Old Man Li lowered his body, scratched the heavy ears of rice and weighed them in his hands.
"Isn't it possible? We also cook the same food." Tian Huairen's eyes lit up after hearing this, but he was still a little unsure.
"You'll know when the harvest comes." Old Man Li chuckled and said, "Next spring, our family will farm the same way. Third child, Tian family girl, you have to give some advice to the folks."
After hearing this, Tian Minyan stood up and said with a smile: "Dad Li, this is the first time we have done this fish farming in rice fields. I don't know if it can be done. I didn't tell everyone about it at first. Now that it can be done, we will do it again next spring."
, if the villagers want to do this, of course our family will not hide their secrets, and we will say whatever needs to be said, we will raise fish and harvest rice together, and turn our Yangmei Village into a land of plenty."
"Haha, you girl can talk as soon as you open your mouth, so dad will remember the words first and talk to the villagers later." Old Man Li was very happy to hear that Tian Minyan did not intend to hide anything.
Said: "It's better that you, the third wife, are kind."
Tian Minyan pursed her lips and smiled, thinking that this rice field fish farming could not hide her selfishness at all. First, everyone could see it during the harvest, so they would naturally know what was going on. Secondly, the county magistrate had already given this rice field fish farming to
It was recorded on the record, and if it had great results during the harvest, it would definitely be promoted. She couldn't hide it even if she wanted to, so she might as well sell it as a favor to gain a good reputation.
Now, the rice fields and fish farming have begun to bear fruit. People who can see their fields have actually already made plans in their hearts. Even if their field family doesn't teach them, they will follow suit, so why not?
Teach the method generously?
After a few people chatted for a while, Tian Minyan and the others insisted on stuffing two fishes to Mr. Li and told him to keep them in clean water for a day to get rid of the muddy atmosphere, then they left with the fishes.
Father Li looked at the two grass carps in his hands, then looked at the backs of Tian Minyan and the others, and said to his son beside him: "The Tian family's third bedroom is really going to live well. It won't take long, and it will be the first one in the village.
