Preparation
The yolk-like sun rises from the east, and the sky is white, and gradually, the sun grows higher and higher, and finally illuminates the whole sky. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info
From early in the morning, Yangjia Village gradually became active, and the Yang family's mansion began to be lively.
Yesterday, Yuan finished her tea leaves and set aside a few days to go up the mountain to pick burr balls with the Spring and Autumn Season.
Gloves, sickles... All kinds of utensils have long been prepared, and several people in the spring and autumn are wearing cloth shoes, standing in the yard waiting for her mother, and after her mother comes out with the basket, the spring and autumn look excited and shouted, "Let's go"
Majestic and high-spirited, holding his chest up, Chunqiu raised his little head and walked at the front of the team, during which he met the villagers in the village, Yuan just smiled, and did not explain why they wanted to go to the back mountain, facing the incomprehensible eyes of the villagers, Chunqiu walked forward calmly, afraid of something, the whole mountain is her home.
"Xiu'er, where are you going with Da Mao?"
Yuan's eyes were sharp, and he saw the young woman walking in front of him with a child wrapped in bedding.
"It's Sister-in-law Yuan and Second Brother Yang, hehe, I'll go to Granny Li's house with Da Mao for a while"
Xiu'er's cousin's beautiful female voice came from the front, and when Chunqiu looked up, he saw the cousin wearing a woman's bun and wearing a narcissus-colored dress.
At the beginning of August, Xiu'er's cousin gave birth to a boy who weighed 6 pounds and 6 taels, which made the eldest sister-in-law very happy.
In ancient times, such a heavy baby boy was considered healthy, you must know that when Chunqiu and Huzi were just born, it was not enough for five catties.
The child has passed the full moon, although there is no big name, but the small name is also given, called Da Mao.
Now that Da Mao has passed for more than a month, Xiu'er's cousin has also passed the confinement time, and when she is free, Xiu'er's cousin will take the child out for a walk, of course, it won't be too long, just a few minutes.
"What's wrong with going to Granny Li's house? Da Mao is making trouble again at night?"
Yuan Shi greeted her directly, stood beside Xiu'er, and talked to her.
As soon as Xiu'er heard Yuan's words, she gently patted Da Mao's back and said in a low tone, "Well, Da Mao has always slept at night in the past two days, and my mother feels that something is wrong, so let me go to Granny Li's house to have a look."
When Chen Xiuer said this, the air pressure was obviously not high, and her face was a little disapproving, but because of her mother-in-law's face, Chen Xiuer did not object.
Yuan is a person who has come over, so she naturally understands what Chen Xiu'er said, she patted Chen Xiu'er on the shoulder, and then said with a smile, "It's okay, it's normal for children to have trouble, it'll be fine in two days, your mother-in-law is also worried, it's not a big deal to go and see..."
Granny Li is a more famous person in their entire Yangjia Village, how to say it, it is very similar to the dancing immortal in later generations, but the old people believe it, especially in the ancient era when the mythology was relatively strong, Chen Xiuer's words were not meaningful, she didn't believe it, she just met the Yuan family and complained casually.
Yuan and Chen Xiu'er chatted for a few words, and said a few words of comfort, then watched Chen Xiu'er go away, after Chen Xiu'er left, Chunqiu also secretly glanced at the big hair in the bedding, well, it was still like just born, black and thin, and the skin was still a little dull yellow, but this is normal, the child was just a month old, because the gallbladder has not been drained clean, so it has not become white and tender, and it will be fine in a few months.
As for the nonsense that often appears in the novel, children grow up and become white and tender after a few days, that is not credible!
…
For a few days, the Spring and Autumn family were busy with the chestnuts, except for the tiger, the tiger was pouring into the study hall to read, and when the yard was full, it was really impossible to put it down, and the spring and autumn decided to take a day off, she wanted to clean up the chestnuts that had been dried before, so as to make room for the chestnuts that had not been picked off on the mountain.
There are two difficult problems in dealing with chestnuts, one is the problem of the burr shell on the outside of the chestnut, which is not handled well, it will be stuck in the meat, and there is another problem, that is, the hard shell of the chestnut, but the spring and autumn to make sugar fried chestnuts, the outer layer of the hard shell is not a problem, or to solve the burr shell first.
In ancient times, there was no shelling machine, and the Spring and Autumn Period would not make a machine, as a last resort, the Spring and Autumn Period used a most stupid method, manual shelling, first a wooden board or hard thing on the sun-dried chestnut shell and grunted back and forth, and waited until the burr was almost off, and they were picked up by hand, and some chestnut shells were dropped because of the drying reason, which saved a lot of trouble.
Spring and Autumn went when picking chestnuts, there was no reason to call off the chestnuts when Spring and Autumn were not there, with the father and mother who were resting at home, the three of them sat in the yard and picked up chestnuts for a whole day, until the sun was thin, they had picked up a large piece of chestnuts, and there were many fewer chestnuts like a hill in the yard, so they called it a day.
"Squeak... Crunch..."Chunqiu tilted his head and rubbed his shoulders, twisted his wrists, and moved his thighs that had not moved for a long time before he could be considered alive again.
"Okay, Qiu'er, go back to the house and take a rest, my mother will go to the kitchen to heat the dishes"
Yuan also finished the activity, and looked at the girl with red hands on the side, feeling a little distressed.
"Well, mother, what are we going to eat in a while" Chunqiu directly showed a bright smile.
"Let's eat at noon" Yuan Shi said directly without thinking, she was also tired for a day, and she really didn't have the strength to cook.
After hearing this, Chunqiu nodded directly, "Okay"
After Yuan finished speaking, he went directly to the kitchen with a somewhat sore shoulder, Chunhui looked back at Yang Weibai, who was sitting on the ground, grinning his teeth, and shouted, "Dad, let's go back to the house."
"Eh, come on" Yang Weibai's thick voice came from the side, and Chunqiu waited for her father to get up, and the two went back to the house directly.
It is eaten early in the evening, and the cooked meals are very simple, and you can eat it as soon as it is hot in a pot.
When he went to bed at night in the spring and autumn, he told his father about the iron pot, when making sugar fried chestnuts, it was necessary to put fine sand in the pot, and this thing went to the river to find it in the spring and autumn, thinking that there were still a lot of things tomorrow, and the spring and autumn lay on the kang and fell asleep in a daze......
I had a good night's sleep, and I woke up extra comfortable the next day.
Early in the morning, her father Yang Weibai turned out a small iron pot for Chunqiu from the warehouse in their backyard, which was left when the east wing was demolished before.
Then let her father set up an open-air stove at the gate of the yard, sat on the iron pot, washed all the fine sand dug up, and poured it in, and Chunqiu was ready to show his hand.
