It was the first time that the courtyard of the Yang family was so lively, and it was a completely different scene from the usual doors.

Sent away the people in the village, cleaned the yard neatly, and grandpa and grandma waited at home for Liu Shan to pull the goods. And Yang Yun pulled Yang Xuan and Li Xiaobao out of the door and walked to Uncle Wednesday's grocery store, I wanted to buy some snacks to treat the two children after finishing work today, and I secretly discussed with Xiaoxuan last night, after making the bamboo mat today, I went to Zhou Landlord's house to see my cousin Yang Yong, just after the autumn harvest, my cousin should not be busy in the fields.

Alas! Tomorrow is the Mid-Autumn Festival, and I don't know how my cousin is doing at the landlord's house in Zhou. I didn't dare to tell my grandmother when I went to see my cousin today, for fear that my grandmother would be sad, and my grandmother always blamed herself for selling herself to work for her. Before going out, I took some copper plates with my grandmother, and bought more snacks to send to my cousin to eat. Grandma's love for Yang Yun is really unparalleled, every time she takes money, she just asks Yang Yun what she does with it, and asks if she has enough money. Yang Yun feels that she is still very lucky, her grandparents are really good! Very good!

When I arrived at Uncle Wednesday's grocery store, I saw Aunt Wednesday alone in the store.

"Does Aunt Wednesday sell dim sum? Xiao Yun wanted to buy some snacks. ”

"Yes, come in and take a look, there are several kinds of dim sum, the green is mung bean cake, the red is red date cake, the light yellow is osmanthus cake, you see which ones to buy." It's too tricky, isn't the mung bean cake yellow, this green mung bean cake is even made with the mung bean skin.

"Xiao Xuan, Xiao Bao, what do you like to eat?" Yang Yun turned her head and asked the two children.

"Sister, you can eat whatever Xiaoxuan buys." Yang Xuan is always distressed like this.

"Sister Yun, Xiaobao is the same." The two poor children probably hadn't eaten any of these snacks, so they didn't know which one was good.

"Aunt Wednesday weighed a pound of hanging flower cake and a pound of red date cake, by the way, is there any candy for children to eat?"

"There's caramel candy, and it's the sugar that children like to eat the most." Aunt Wednesday walked to the other side of the shelf and took out a box of sugar, the sugar was black and red, a bit like modern brown sugar, this sugar is directly extracted from barley, wheat, or millet, but the craftsmanship of this era is too rough, there are many impurities, for the children of the farm, this is the best snack.

"Then weigh another pound of caramel candy, divide the two snacks and wrap them up."

"Okay, do you want to buy anything else?"

"No need, you can help Xiao Yun wrap up the dim sum." Aunt Wednesday took the oil paper and divided the snack into two parts and wrapped it according to Yang Yun's request. Yang Yun took some caramel and put it in a small bag of dim sum, which was to be left for her cousin to eat.

"Yun girl, I want to entertain you when you buy so many things, I heard that your family has recently made a lot of money in the bamboo mat business, and you have hired someone to work." Yang Yun knew that one day the people in the village would notice the Yang family's business, no, Aunt Wednesday tried to inquire about the bamboo mat business.

"That's okay, Aunt Wednesday, you can't listen to other people's nonsense, Xiao Yun's family does bamboo mat business to have food and clothing, you also know what kind of life Xiao Yun's family used to live, now sell some bamboo mats, just think about being able to exchange some rice and grain every day, the family has no land and no land, and making some small money is just a simple hope that they will no longer live a hungry and cold life. You and Uncle Wednesday are capable people, you can make a lot of money every day when you open such a shop, compared to your family, these small businesses of Xiao Yun's family are nothing. Yang Yun pretended to be sad and envious and praised Aunt Wednesday.

"You kid will be obedient, how can this shop make a lot of money, and the ones sold are all from the villagers, so you just want to be stable and not lose money." Aunt Wednesday seems to be modest, but in fact, her eyebrows and eyes are almost smiling into a line.

"Grandpa said to be a man to be reputable, promised the merchant to deliver on time, to be trustworthy, Xiao Yun's family in order not to be a man of no faith in words, had to ask someone to help make a bamboo mat, even if it is a money to invite someone, it is better than being poked in the back and scolded for being untrustworthy. Besides, grandpa has taught others all the skills for many years. "The ancients paid great attention to respecting teachers, and grandpa unconditionally taught many years of craftsmanship, if the villagers had any thoughts, they would be poked in the back. Besides, grandpa passed on the craft, and the villagers were not good, and the Yang family covered their business to guard against the villagers, and did not treat them as a village.

"Yun Yatou is right, this person's reputation is really important. My aunt heard that learning a craft in the town, the master is generally not easy to pass on, even if the apprentice learns from the master, the master will not let go of the teaching without three years and five years, your grandfather is really a kind and selfless person. ”

"Grandpa said that you must be worthy of your conscience in life and work, and this time I am also grateful to the six children in the village, if they didn't help Xiaoyun's family, how could they have delivered all the goods on time. You also know that if you fail to deliver on time, Xiao Yun doesn't know what will happen. ”

"This is also true, the merchants in the town really can't be easily offended." After talking about it, the topic was diverted, and Aunt Wednesday didn't ask anything. Two catties of dim sum cost thirty yuan, Yang Yun only had no meat to death, and thirty yuan could buy one and a half pounds of lean meat, and the meat flew away. I paid for the dim sum and walked to the landlord Zhou's house with the dim sum and the two children.

On the way, I tasted a snack with two children,! I almost didn't spit it out, it was too unpalatable, and it was like an expired pastry in my mouth, with a burnt smell, and the taste was too coarse, just like the black steamed bun. Not sweet at all. Alas! In this era, the grain production was low and expensive, and I would never use polished rice or fine noodles to make these dim sums, but they were all made of coarse grains, which was really different from modern dim sum. I kept comforting myself in my heart, this is Haoguo, not the 21st century. Don't be too picky, Yang Xuan and Xiaobao ate with relish, and looking at their satisfied appearance, they also felt that the dim sum in their mouths was not so difficult to eat.
