119. Chapter 119: Entering the Lin Family's Back House
Zhang Xiuying and Bi Chuan glanced at each other and secretly pursed their lips and smiled.
Just returned a pair of rival cockfights, and now they have a strong affection, so they almost hold hands.
It seems that what they are worried about is really redundant, and these two people must be able to tell them to hug their grandson and grandson quickly!
The sufficiency on the faces of my mother and grandmother made Leng Xiaoxi's face more and more red.
At this time, Leng Degui came back from outside.
Before dawn in the morning, Leng Degui carried a bag up the mountain and stepped on the wild fennel seeds.
He thought about picking more while people were not prepared, so as not to be discovered, and not to cut off the livelihood of his family.
"Degui, where have you been this morning, look at you tired and sweating?"
Village Chief Li Dazhi said to Leng Degui with a smile.
"Ahem, it's not that the children at home are greedy and want to eat the wild apricots, no, I'll go to the opposite mountain to pick some back. ”
Leng Degui said, and raised the noodle bag in his hand to Li Dazhi to see.
When Leng Xiaoxi saw her father like this, she understood in her heart what he was doing in the mountains, and when she was worried that he would not be able to round the field, when she saw her father talking like this, her hanging heart fell, and at the same time, she also looked into the bag that her father was holding.
The bag Leng Degui was carrying in his hand contained a lot of wild mountain apricots, and his other bag contained a few large pieces of yellow lumpy things.
"Dad, what is this?" Leng Xiaoxi didn't know, so he raised his eyes and asked.
When Leng Degui saw Leng Xiaoxi asking, his face immediately became excited.
"Xiaoxi, this is something to be returned. ”
Ji Boming also leaned over when he heard the voice, "This is a honeycomb, Dad, where are you doing?"
Leng Degui saw Ji Boming's question, showing off, and said complacently: "This is this hornet's self-defeating encounter with me, I wanted to pick more wild apricots to come back to the children to taste, where do I think, these meat goods actually chased me to bite, I was angry and took their nest, thinking about asking for their food, and came back to give the children a sweet mouth." ”
There was a burst of laughter in the courtyard, Leng Xiaogang and Leng Xiaoqiang cheered, stretched out their hands and took a wild apricot and filled it into their mouths.
"Don't ......," the village chief Li Dazhi didn't come to stop him in a hurry.
I saw Leng Xiaogang bending over and spitting out what he had just eaten.
"Bah, why is this so unpalatable. Leng Xiaoqiang, like his brother, spat on the ground while throwing the mountain apricot he had bitten in his hand to the ground.
"Dad, the things you picked are not delicious. The children's actions made the adults laugh.
"You can't eat this thing, you have to boil it in water and put sugar. Li Dazhi laughed and said with tears in his eyes.
Leng Xiaoxi watched silently, in the modern pure green mountains, wild apricots are excellent things.
She remembers the store being packed as shiny preserved fruit.
An idea was formed in her heart, but she didn't have that kung fu yet, and when she was free, she had to think about it.
The wild apricots on this mountain are all over the mountain, and if you really get the preserved fruit, it will be another income.
When the family was eating, Lizheng Sun Chaoying came.
"Boming, aren't you going to town today?" Leng Degui said.
"No, Xiao Xi can go. Ji Boming said with a smile.
Leng Xiaoxi had breakfast, cleaned up, and the group drove the donkey jeep straight to Nanqiu Town.
At the door of the Wenxiang Restaurant, Lin Yitian had already prepared the refined white rice that Leng Xiaoxi wanted, just waiting for Xiaoxi to come over and accept it.
Li Dazhi and Sun Chaoying saw these grains with their own eyes, and they couldn't hide their joy on their faces.
Leng Xiaoxi introduced to everyone separately, and Li Dazhi naturally knew Lin Yitian.
When Leng Xiaoxi saw a few of them talking, he went to the butcher's shop of the fat shopkeeper with Leng Degui.
When the fat shopkeeper saw that they had arrived as promised, he did not break his promise, so he was naturally happy, and hurriedly loaded the same beef and mutton of fifty catties and one hundred catties of beef and mutton that had been weighed in advance onto the donkey cart.
Leng Xiaoxi calculated the meat money, and said goodbye to the fat shopkeeper, she and Leng Degui went to the blacksmith shop where Leng Xiaoxi worked for the oven before.
Last night, when Leng Xiaoxi took a bath, he thought about seeing that the weather was getting hot, and the sun was shining so much during the day, if he didn't use it, it would be a waste of energy.
Leng Xiaoxi is familiar with the road, and the blacksmith master is naturally no stranger to Leng Xiaoxi.
"Shopkeeper, do you remember the stove I built last time?"
"This is natural, it turns out that the stove you played was to bake that kind of meat skewers?"
The blacksmith master had seen Leng Xiaoxi since he had seen it, and then he heard that there was a strange meat skewer in the town.
When he heard the description of the stove on which the skewers were kept, he knew that the person who was making the skewers must be the girl who drew with a pen that day.
Leng Xiaoxi asked the blacksmith master to make three more stoves bigger than the oven according to the previous appearance.
"Shopkeeper, I want a bucket that is so big and so wide. Leng Xiaoxi's iron bucket was about two meters long and one meter two or three meters high.
"Iron bucket, why do you want such a big iron bucket?" the shopkeeper looked surprised.
"Yes, Xiaoxi, what are you doing with such a big iron bucket?"
Leng Degui was also puzzled, he didn't understand what a big iron bucket that was longer than a person and the height of a teenager could do.
"Dad, don't worry about it, it's useless for me to say it now, when we get home, you will understand. ”
After Leng Xiaoxi finished speaking, he asked the blacksmith's master to weld a few square long pipes.
Here, without that advanced technology, the round pipe is beyond the reach of the blacksmith master, and Xiaoxi is not more serious, no matter what, as long as such a water pipe can be used.
Xiao Xi drew the drawings and came out and saw where the donkey jeep was parked.
Her eyes lit up, and she suddenly remembered the donkeys that had passed by on the modern vaudeville stage.
Turning around, Leng Xiaoxi asked the blacksmith master to make a few copper bells.
"Is this copper more expensive than iron?" the blacksmith didn't understand, why did this girl think so much, and what she wanted was different from others.
"It doesn't matter if it's expensive, I want you to make a copper bell with a delicate look and a crisp sound. Leng Xiaoxi said with a smile.
"Okay, that's no problem, you just need to pay the money, don't say it's this! Even if you want something difficult, as long as you have a picture, I dare to do it." ”
The blacksmith thinks he is highly skilled and is more willing to take on new challenges.
Leng Xiaoxi and Leng Degui came out of the blacksmith shop and went straight to the Wenxiang Restaurant.
Since Shopkeeper Lin has prepared so much food without breaking his promise, it can be seen that he is sincere in cooperation.
When Leng Degui and Leng Xiaoxi came to Wenxianglou Hotel, Li Dazhi and Sun Chaoying were directing more than a dozen ox carts to pull grain.
"Xiaoxi, are you back?" Li Dazhi glanced at the donkey cart.
"Have you counted all the food?"
"This is natural, it's just, the You family's ...... What are you going to do?" said Sun Chaoying with the account book in his hand.
"You Shi's grain, you asked someone to load it on this donkey cart, it just so happens that there are so many people in the family to eat, I don't have to sell it in the next few days. ”
Leng Xiaoxi said with a smile, and Li Dazhi hurriedly instructed the guys who loaded the car to send a bag of refined white rice to Leng Xiaoxi's donkey jeep.
"Xiaoxi, why did you buy so much beef and mutton?"
Before Leng Xiaoxi could answer Li Dazhi's question, Lin Yitian came out of the restaurant.
"Xiaoxi, this grain has been loaded into the truck according to what you said, when will you go in and mix meat?"
"Shopkeeper Lin, it's not yet the time for lunch, I'll go in and prepare now, and I promise that we won't make money by mistake. ”
Li Dazhi saw Lin Yitian and Leng Xiaoxi talking like this, and he already understood eight or nine points in his heart.
It turned out that Leng Xiaoxi used his meat skewer technology to get food for the people of the whole village.
"Xiaoxi, it's really hard for you. ”
"Village chief, don't be so polite, it's a good thing that this meat skewer can enter this big restaurant and increase its value. ”
Although Leng Xiaoxi spoke like this, he still made Li Dazhi grateful, who doesn't know, now Leng Xiaoxi's meat skewers are on fire.
If this Lin Yitian hadn't gotten benefits, he would have taken out so much food at once.
"Xiaoxi, your goodness, I will remember it for the people of our village. Sun Chaoying said solemnly.
The grain matter was solved, Leng Xiaoxi asked the shopkeeper to carry the beef and mutton in, and taught the master who cut the meat, how to cut the meat, how big to cut, that piece of meat to cut horizontally, and that piece of meat to cut along the tendons.
After the meat cutting was arranged, Leng Xiaoxi went to the backyard of the hotel to check whether the shaved bamboo skewers were qualified.
The backyard of Wenxianglou is, to put it bluntly, the mansion of Lin Yitian's family, where his family lives.
Yesterday, Lin Yitian told his family about his decision, and said that the person who cooperated with him was Leng Xiaoxi of Lengjia Village, who retired from Lin Hexuan, and so on.
When Leng Xiaoxi came to the backyard, she didn't think too much, just thought that since she was cooperating with others, she had to be strict at the beginning, she had to do it herself, and she had to do everything flawlessly.
Lin Yitian is the eldest son of the Lin family, with his mother Wen who is nearly 60 years old and four children.
The eldest Lin Hexuan is 17 years old, and he is preparing for the exam in Qingcheng, and he will come back from retirement at the end of June.
The second is a sixteen-year-old Lin Heping, a daughter who married a wealthy official family in Jiangchen County last year.
The third child, Lin Heru, was twelve years old and was studying in a private school in a college in Nanqiu Town.
The fourth child has a daughter, Lin Heqin, who is ten years old, although she did not study, Lin Yitian also invited her housekeeper to teach Lin Heqin to learn the etiquette of women, as well as the female workers and the Four Books and Five Classics.
And Lin Yitian's wife, Wen, is familiar with poetry and books, and is a typical lady, this Wen is gentle and elegant, and she has never asked too much about her own affairs.
But now, this Wen family heard from the head of the family that the girl who cooperated with her family to do business kebabs was Leng Xiaoxi, who retired from her son Lin Hexuan.
Wen Shi found her mother-in-law, thinking, secretly to see what this little beauty who was praised as a flower at the beginning, and then became an ugly girl, what she looked like.
And the whispers of the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law happened to be heard by the stubborn Lin Heqin.
