Chapter 141: Pickled Pickled Melon

"Don't look at the fact that you can't sell it at home, no one says anything, and everyone thinks that they have bad luck. If you take it, there is 10,000 catties left, and someone has to say, fortunately, they are all sold.

Your brother also praised you, saying that you have seen the world outside, but it is different, and you can meet useful people when you go out, and you have done great things for our village. You are famous in the village this time, and everyone thinks of you.

The remaining more than 5,000 catties in the village have not been sold for two days, and they are still sold for three cents a catty. Daowei came back and said that you let everyone share it, and they will pull it back and share it. ”

After finishing work, Han Daowei also came with his uncle and grandfather. Grandma handed him 1,200 yuan, "A total of 92,000 catties of watermelon, right?"

"Yes, that's the number. Aunt, we have to calculate the money you pay for renting a place in the city and the money for eating. You have given our village such a big heart, I can't let you put money into it anymore. Han Daowei said what he thought.

"It's okay to have a good number of catties, why are you still dead-eyed, I'll tell you in the city, I don't care if you need money for a meal." Didn't my aunt give out more than 20 melons for the rented place money, and I arrived. ”

My uncle listened to my grandmother's words and said to Han Daowei: "Put the money away, your aunt doesn't want to forget it." Besides, you eat well, and you can't enter the account, if you use this as a standard in the future, our village will collapse. "No wonder my uncle and grandfather's prestige is high, and this principle is good enough.

On the way home, grandma listened to the words of gratitude all the way, and everyone praised grandma for her ability to solve the great difficulties in the village. Yoyo was tired of listening to it, so he ran home first.

Mom had already cooked the soup and sat there digging melon pulps. In front of him was a large basket of small melon eggs, the big ones were like fists, the small ones were like eggs, there were melons, and there were watermelons.

"Mom, what kind of melon is this, why are you doing this?" asked Yoyo curiously.

"Bitter gourd eggs, the team pulled melon seedlings, and freed up the land to plant radish. Hao Hao picked it up in the melon field, dug up the bitter pickles and ate them, aren't you just good at eating salted melons, forget it. "My mother threw the dug melon into the water and soaked it, saying that it was to remove the bitterness. The small watermelon does not need to be dug up, and the whole watermelon is washed and soaked in salted water.

One pickle jar can hold sixty catties, and there are two in the Youyou family. Like you caused me to make mistakes

After passing through, Yoyo can be regarded as seeing the ability of people to pickle pickles in this era, except for leafy vegetables, as long as they can't be eaten, everything is thrown into the pickle jar, melons, cucumbers, bamboo shoots, beans, and even eggplants, cooked in the pot, are also split and salted.

In the summer, the vegetables in the vegetable garden of the production team are basically not sold, they are all distributed to the masses to eat, roughly once every two days, and the Youyou family can share a large basket every time.

Eggplant, peppers, beans, green onions, leeks. Around the melon orchard, a circle of beans is also planted, and there is also a piece of winter melon and Beijing melon long pumpkin, and every time the melon is divided, there is a bunch of beans.

In order to save fuel, except for the guests, people rarely stir-fry and eat, most of them are eaten by slipping, or drinking a pot of porridge. Therefore, the divided dishes can't be eaten, and everyone is afraid that they will spoil it, so they throw it into the pickle jar and pickle it.

In addition, it is to dry the vegetables. The most dried is that the beans are dried, the beans are scalded in the pot, dried in the ventilation under the eaves, and after drying, they are still turquoise, put away and put them in a coarse cloth bag, and hang them under the beams. There is also the eggplant dried, cut into eggplant slices and hung on strings, which can be dried in two days.

The winter melon at the second grandmother's house was also cut and dried, and the slices were rotated into strips with a knife, because the winter melon had a lot of moisture, it had to be placed in the clean grass ash, and rubbed vigorously to let the winter melon slices seep out of the water, and then hung on the rope to dry.

You think of the stewed dried winter melon you eat in spring, not only the freshness of the winter melon but also the non-nn road, quite delicious, so you want your grandmother to also dry the dried winter melon.

The winter melons shared by the Youyou family were all stewed and eaten, and grandma bought more than a dozen big winter melons in the bazaar, two cents a catty, which was really cheap.

At dinner, Didi himself nibbled on two chicken legs, and shouted that he wanted to eat another one, which seemed to be greedy. Youyou was afraid that he would hold on, so he patted his round belly.

"It's old enough, you can't eat it anymore, or my sister won't buy it for you in the future." "What Didi is afraid of is that he won't buy it in the future, he looked at the roast chicken, turned his head and left, clean and neat, and he still knows the truth that he is out of sight and out of mind.

The next day is the second day of the seventh month of the lunar calendar, and the solar calendar is the beginning of the month. Agricultural proverb: "When autumn is established, hang a hoe hook." "Yoyo is glad for her mother, and she finally doesn't have to hoe the ground. The path to godhood in another world

But the weather was as hot as usual, and for several days, the temperature at noon was above 35 degrees. Yoyo asked Grandma: "Isn't it autumn at the beginning of autumn, why is it still so hot?"

Grandma's answer was: "Ten days of sweltering autumn are shining, and every inch of grass bears seeds." ”

Yoyo listened to the wail: "When is this hot?" The solar calendar enters June, and from the beginning of the wheat harvest, it is hot to more than 30 degrees at noon. When it comes to the beginning of autumn on the day of the month, it has to be hot for another ten days, that is not the end of the month, this is to be a hot month.

In his previous life, Yoyo was originally at home, coupled with his physical disability, he stayed in the room and didn't go out in the summer. The room with central air conditioning is always kept at about 25, where do you know what it feels like to be hot in summer.

This year, I know it, it's really difficult, and I can hide in the space if I have nothing to do. Otherwise, it's scary to think about it.

The weather is getting hotter, but the humidity of the air has finally dropped, and it is not as hot as before. The temperature also dropped in the morning and evening, with the lowest temperature around 25, and I was finally able to sleep comfortably at night.

Grandma's watermelon sauce beans were also pickled, and when the mouth of the tank was opened, the fragrant smell of sauce wafted out. Grandma scooped out a bowl with a clean spoon, poured sesame oil, and put it in the pot to slip it over, and it tasted better.

Yoyo dipped the steamed bun in the watermelon sauce and took a bite. The aroma of soy sauce, watermelon, and sesame oil is combined to make it taste great. Although the watermelon sauce is salty, the family has to eat a big bowl at every meal.

Other families in the village also have the same dish, although they can't afford to eat so much sesame oil, they will also use chopsticks to dip their heads in the sesame oil bottle, and symbolically drop two drops, which can be regarded as a taste. Because there was water on the chopsticks, the water sank under the sesame oil, and the bottle of sesame oil was eaten for a year, and even became a little higher.

It's also poor, there's no way.

Later, Yoyo specifically checked the watermelon sauce beans on it, only to know that it is a famous snack in southwest Shandong, and it has also been on CCTV's food column on the tip of China, but in her time, many people said that pickled food was not good, and few people did it.
