Chapter 24: Door-to-door

"Filial piety, I don't have that eye to see them filial piety. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE怂 info didn't me off. Cui Shi muttered two sentences dissatisfiedly, "Why don't you guys hurry up, and do you want my wife to help you?"

After speaking, Cui Shi and Feng Shi walked to the upper room together.

As soon as he took two steps, Cui Shi turned his head and glared at Xu Xiangwan and Xu Qiuyi: "What are you two still standing like a stake? Don't you cook in the kitchen, waiting for me to do it yourself?"

Xu Qiuyi answered and was about to go to the kitchen, but was stopped by Xu Xiangwan.

"Grandma, let's go. Xu Xiangwan turned his head and said to Cui.

Cui Shi snorted coldly and turned his head to follow Feng.

After only a few steps, Feng Shi stopped again: "Wulang, you take this basket of eggs and cook it for your mother." I see that your mother's face is still very bad, and she has to make up for it. ā€

After speaking, Feng raised the basket in his hand and took out a large cloth bag from the basket.

Gorou glanced at Cui's and saw him glaring at him fiercely, so he took two steps forward and took the cloth bag handed over by Feng with a smile: "Thank you, Grandma, I shouldn't have accepted such a precious thing as eggs, but my mother's body is really too weak, and she should make up for it, so I'm not welcome." ā€

Hearing Gorou say this, Feng Shi looked at Gorou with a smile: "Gorou has also grown up and knows how to be considerate." You're right, your mother should make up for it, these eggs are all born by her own chickens, and they are not worth anything, you can take them back to eat, if they are not enough, go to my house to take them, don't be polite to my grandmother. ā€

There are many people in this world who are icing on the cake, but there are few people who give charcoal in the snow. Although Feng only sent some eggs, he sent what they needed most during the most difficult time in the second room, and such a heart is something that the Gorou family will never forget and will always be grateful.

It was Feng's heart that forged a good relationship for him, and he was well rewarded by the Gorou family in the days to come, and his life changed dramatically. Of course, this is all for later, so I won't mention it for the time being.

Feng and Cui's returned to the upper room, and Cui's naturally said a lot of bad things about Zhang's and Xu Xiangwan and others, but Feng is not a fool, justice is in the hearts of the people, she has her own scale in her heart, and naturally she will not listen to and believe partially.

I came to Xu's house today to send something to the Zhang family, so I didn't sit in the upper room for long before leaving.

In order not to let the Zhang family be affected, Xu Xiangwan finally compromised with the Cui family and went to the kitchen with Xu Qiuyi to help the Zheng family cook.

Just now, the Zheng family was standing on the sidelines watching the excitement, without saying a good word, and fanning the flames next to him, which made Xu Xiangwan have another layer of disgust for him. Therefore, Xu Xiangwan gave her a lot of trouble in the process of cooking, and burned the fire out at once, and burned the fire again at once, and the last pot of rice was boiled out of some raw, and some paste, which made it difficult for people to swallow, so that Zheng finally suffered a good scolding from Cui's family.

Since then, the Zheng family has rarely asked Xu Xiangwan for help.

Since this trouble, the Xu family has finally calmed down for a few days.

In the past few days, Gorou went out early every morning to collect firewood, and came back at noon and evening with a full back.

Only Xu Xiangwan's family knew that Wulang had not been collecting firewood in the past few days, but had picked hundreds of catties of fresh wolfberries and came back.

Xu Xiangwan was grounded by Wulang, and there were Xiao Jiu and Xu Qiuyi as supervisors at home, so naturally there was no way to go out, so he honestly dried wolfberries at home.

Goji berries do not need to be exposed to the sun at first.

In order to reduce unnecessary trouble, Xu Xiangwan did not bring the wolfberries to the yard in the past two days.

In order to dry the wolfberries, Xu Xiangwan also asked Wulang to go to the town and buy a packet of alkali back.

After buying the alkali, the money given by Mr. Xu was only the last thirty wen.

When the family first separated, Gorou went to the town to weigh five catties of salt and a woodcutter, which cost a total of ten cents.

The alkali is relatively expensive, and Gorou only bought one pack and spent five cents, and one pack was only about two catties.

The freshly picked wolfberries need to be mixed with alkaline water and then spread out on a special plate for wolfberries, and then moved to the sun after the wolfberries have lost some of their moisture.

In order to dry the wolfberries, Xu Xiangwan asked Goro to make 20 wolfberry plates, each of which was nailed into a wooden frame three feet long and two feet wide, and nailed thin bamboo strips under the wooden frame. In fact, it is best to nail wooden strips under the wolfberry plate and then lay a window screen, but considering the conditions at home, Xu Xiangwan can only use local materials and use fine bamboo strips with good air permeability.

Xu Xiangwan put the wolfberries evenly on the bamboo slices, put the wolfberry plate at the most ventilated door and next to the wooden window, and almost the entire east wing room was full, and it took two days to dry the water partially.

After the wolfberry wrinkled, there were probably more than two hundred catties left.

These wolfberries are not easy to deal with, but fortunately, Gorou is a capable one, and he made the wolfberry plate according to Xu Xiangwan's meaning in one day. There is Xu Qiuyi at home to help, and Xiao Jiu also helps. After Zhang rested for two days, the wound was much better, and he also helped to sort out hundreds of catties of wolfberries, otherwise if Xu Xiangwan was alone, I am afraid that these wolfberries would have to be damaged a lot.

That's it, the four or five hundred wolfberries picked back are also bad for no less than twenty catties, and Xu Xiangwan has a pain in the heart, these are all money, ten catties of fresh wolfberries can be dried one pound of dried wolfberries, and one pound can be sold for more than ten or twenty wen!

On this day, the sky was clear and the sun was shining, and Xu Xiangwan's family took the half-dried wolfberries to the yard early to dry.

During this period after the separation, Xu Xiangwan asked Xu Qiuyi to boil an egg for Zhang's every day, although compared with Zhang's deficit body, these are just a drop in the bucket, but it still has a little effect, Zhang's face looks much better than before the family, and the wound on his forehead has finally scarred.

"Sister-in-law, is this the Xu family?" When the Zhang family was busy, a plump middle-aged woman came to the gate of the Xu family and looked in with a smile on her face.

The middle-aged woman combed her shiny high bun, had a pink hibiscus flower on her head, three red gold crested hairpins obliquely, a rectangular face with heavy makeup, a big concentric silver collar around her neck, a lake-blue tuanhua muslin placket on her upper body, a water-red satin tunic tunic skirt, and a silver-red embroidered silk handkerchief in her hand.

Behind the middle-aged woman, there were also several men dressed as uniform brown shorts, like the members of large families.

Xu Xiangwan's eyelids jumped, and his intuition was not a good thing.
