Chapter 588: 165: Have Good Things to Give You
Ni Yang put the umbrella into her basket, “Put it in, just in case it starts raining.”
Just as Ni Cuihua left, an elderly woman with white hair arrived at the door with a basket, “Is Yangyang’s mum at home?”
“Grandma Liu.” Ni Yang smiled and walked over, “My mom just left. Do you need anything from her?”
Ni Yang was taken aback.
She never knew that Grandma Liu, even with her bound feet, could run so fast.
Looking at the pile of potatoes that Grandma Liu brought, Ni Yang suddenly had an idea, “Yunyun, do you want to eat something delicious?”
“Yes!” Upon hearing the mention of delicious food, Little Ni Yun started drooling.
Ni Yang picked up five large potatoes, cleaned them thoroughly, peeled off the skin, and finally cut them into thin slices and long strips.
That’s right!
The delicious food that Ni Yang was making today was potato chips and french fries.
Eating fries cannot be without tomato sauce, Ni Yang also ran into the field to pick two large tomatoes.
Making tomato sauce is real simple.
First, peel off the skin of the tomatoes, then cut them into pieces and stir-fry them in hot oil until they’re mushy. After that, add water, and simmer it to reduce it down to a thick consistency.
Normally, when making tomato sauce, one would add white sugar. But the homegrown tomatoes hadn’t been treated with coloring agent. Every bite released a burst of fresh and juicy taste, soft and silky, they were so good in flavor that there was no need to add sugar at all.
While the tomato sauce was simmering, Ni Yang began to fry the chips and potato strips.

When frying in oil, you need to parboil the potatoes in boiling water for three minutes first, then lift them out and rinse them in cold water. Afterward, drain them and fry them in the wok.
A sizzling noise filled the air very soon afterwards.
Little Ni Yun stood by the pot, drooling with desire.
By the time the tomato sauce was ready, the chips and potato strips were all fried up.
Ni Yang handed a portion of fries to Little Ni Yun, “Yunyun, eat slowly, be careful, it’s hot, OK?”
ems, consuming these isn’t really an issue.
When Ni Yang arrived, Grandma Liu was standing on a stool changing a bulb. Hearing some noises from the door, she looked outside, her foot slipped, and she almost fell, but Ni Yang immediately held her, “Careful, Grandma Liu.”
Even though Grandma Liu was scared, she still laughed and said, “It’s okay!”
Ni Yang took the bulb from Grandma Liu’s hand, “This is too dangerous, let me change it for you.”
“I’ll do it, Yangyang, are you sure you know how?” In Grandma Liu’s eyes, Ni Yang still was a child.
Ni Yang laughed and said, “No biggie, I often change bulbs at home.” The moment she finished speaking, she directly stood on the stool and started to replace the bulb. She was so cool that even men would have to marvel at her.
Grandma Liu, however, was worried, “Yangyang, be careful of the electricity!”
“Okay.”
Ni Yang casually turned, “Pop!” and the light was on.
Little Ni Yun happily said, “The light is on!”
Ni Yang jumped off from the stool, used a duster to wipe off the dust, then returned everything to its original place. She handed Grandma Liu the fries and chips on the table, “Here, try these.”
“What are these?” Grandma Liu tasted a fry, “Quite tasty.”
Ni Yang smiled and said, “These are fries and these are chips.”
Grandma Liu said, “This is the first time I’m trying these special delicacies! What are they made of?”
“Want to guess?” Ni Yang teased.
Grandma Liu guessed, “Flour?”
Ni Yang shook her head, “Wrong.”
Grandma Liu pondered a little more, “Glutinous Rice flour?”
“Still wrong.” Ni Yang kept shaking her head.
Grandma Liu guessed again, “So this isn’t made from flour?”
Strange, the taste was surely that of flour.
Ni Yang laughed and said, “Grandma Liu, these are made from potatoes. The same ones you gave us.”
“Potatoes?” Grandma Liu was a bit astonished, “Can potatoes taste this good?”
Ni Yang nodded, “Of course! If you want to learn, I can teach you.”
“Sure.” Grandma Liu usually gets quite bored alone, so she has a great interest in food.
Ni Yang explained the making process in detail to Grandma Liu. Grandma Liu laughed and said, “I’ll definitely try this tomorrow. By the way, Yangyang, come with me.”
Grandma Liu pulled Ni Yang into an inner room, then turned around to carry Little Ni Yun inside as well. She mysteriously closed the door and switched on the light.
“Yangyang, wait for me.” Grandma Liu went behind the bed, and after a while, she walked out with an old vanity case.
No wonder, Ni Yang always felt that Grandma Liu had a certain grace not found in ordinary grandmas.
After the lid was lifted, what met the eyes were a few dusty silver hairpins, and a binyeo (Korean hair stick), but because they hadn’t been worn for many years, or been maintained, these items had lost their original luster.
Grandma Liu pulled open the second layer drawer of the vanity case, astonishingly, a translucent jade bracelet with excellent color and perfect luster rested in the drawer.
