Chapter 126 is difficult
Aunt Fu was busy cooking, and even the peach blossoms went to help light the fire, and Uncle Fu, who went out to buy, had not come back yet, so Li Niang could only do it herself, and the cat was in the warehouse, filling the four big cloth bags to the brim, without considering whether Ying San could bring so much.
He said just now, he has two horses, and he can carry anything up to 200 catties, so don't you have to pretend? If you don't take the opportunity to bring more delicious food to the third uncle, you are a fool.
Hearing the movement in the boiling water room, Shubai ran out and asked his sister, "What are you doing?" ”
"Stir-fry soybeans, stir-fry with sugar, and get some snacks for the third uncle, this thing is delicious and inconspicuous." Li Niang replied while stir-frying soybeans.
A pot of powdered sugar by the stove is the brown sugar she took out of the ring, the kind that Ji Yuan helped make, this sugar is squeezed from Tianyi sorghum stalks, containing a small amount of fairy energy, and the nutritional value is particularly high, which cannot be compared with the pot of granulated sugar made by Li Niang herself later.
Ying San seems to belong to a dog, and he came over when he smelled the fragrance, and Li Niang's words naturally heard it, and he smiled happily, "This is good, get more Miss Mo, don't worry, I will definitely be able to take it away." ”
Two horses don't go, he gets three.
Li Niang didn't speak, fried the jelly beans and fried pine nuts, this one didn't add sugar, the millet didn't collect much, I also ate some during this time, there were more than 100 catties left, Li Niang put 50 catties, the dried millet didn't need to be fried, it tasted very good when eaten raw, Li Niang also told the eagle three millet seeds to stew the old hen, and the wounded ate this to replenish qi and blood.
Ying San went to look through a few bags packed by Li Niang, and saw two bags full of brown sugar tablets, at least one hundred and fifty catties, and one bag of all kinds of dried vegetables and fish, and the last bag was not filled with freshly fried snacks, so he nodded to express satisfaction, and then asked: "Why are there no sunflower seeds?" ”
"Do you like sunflower seeds?" Li Niang asked rhetorically, "Yes, there are five spices, but it's not much, I'll put five catties on the road for you." ”
In the end, more than 200 catties of almost 300 catties of things, Li Niang was really worried that Ying San would not be able to get it, but what he said was right, if a hundred catties of brown sugar were sent to the palace, he would have a lot less burden.
In the past two days, Uncle Fu has been like a spinning top, constantly spinning and turning, he just came back from Jinshui Town, carried four big steamed buns and a bag of boiling water, and hurriedly sent Ying San into the city, I don't know what Ying San thought, he had to get brown sugar for Niangniang, as if he was afraid that Niangniang and the fifth princess would have no sugar to eat in the palace.
Ying San was wearing the kind of black cotton clothes of the Northwest man when he entered and exited Xiaowan Village, and some people recognized him, but they also thought that it was the Jiangnan Du family who came to give gifts, except for a few words of envy, but they didn't think of anything else.
Sent away the eagle three, the Shubai brothers and sisters worked hard to do things, one copied books day and night, one stared at the workers pickled pickles every day, from the third day, there were a lot of big wooden boards made out of the two yards, all of them were dried radish, and there was a smell of radish wafting in the air, and at this time the first batch of sauerkraut had entered the vat, neatly placed against the courtyard wall.
On the fifth day, Li Niang informed Village Chief Li to suspend the purchase, mainly because the big vat was not enough, the kiln factory in Jinshui Town had already sealed the kiln, and the workers had gone home for the New Year, and the twenty-three big vat in stock were all bought back by Uncle Fu, and if you wanted it again, you had to wait until March next year.
The male workers dug wells, built cattle sheds, sheep pens, pig pens, chicken pens, and were sent away by the settlement of wages, and the remaining ten female workers had to do it on the twenty-sixth day of the New Year, in fact, as long as the wages were not in arrears, so that they did not live in the New Year, they were willing to work every day, and there were too few job opportunities suitable for women, and they finally caught one, and they cherished it very much.
On the sixth day of the start of the pickle workshop, the twentieth year of the new year, it happened to be the market, early in the morning, Li Niang went out with Uncle Fu, and the car was loaded with 500 catties of dried radish.
After entering Jinshui Town, Li Niang went to Fuyuan Building first, and if there are good things, she must take care of Uncle Cheng first, she prepared a few recipes for Uncle Cheng, dried radish is one of the main ingredients, and threw the recipe and a hundred catties of dried radish in front of Uncle Cheng, and left, she wanted to enter the city.
The capital is so big and has such a large population, so you must first develop the market there, as for Jinshui Town, let Uncle Cheng get it.
The carriage passed by the gate of the county ya, Li Niang shouted to stop, and she carried thirty catties of dried radishes to the back ya, and knocked on the door, saying that she was the sister of Mo Shubai of Xiaowan Village, and she wanted to find Miss Lin, and the official guarding the door let her in.
The weather is good, the sun is shining, there are a few flowery ladies playing in the small garden, Li Niang stood at the entrance of the small garden and glanced at it, then aimed at the small pavilion, sitting there while basking in the sun while embroidering is not her future sister-in-law?
"Hey, you village girl, why did you run into the garden, you have to walk through the aisle to get to the kitchen." A maid-like person blocked Li Niang's way, and her voice was relatively loud, attracting the attention of the female dependents.
Li Niang sneered, she recognized this maid, the last blind date, she followed Lin Cuilan, she thought that she had grown a lot, but it had not changed so much that people couldn't recognize it, and among the women who came over, there was Lin Cuilan, and she even smiled so evil at herself, it's not that you are the ghost!
Li Niang stood as straight as a green pine, although she was a little shorter than the maid, she still looked at her with a downward posture, "Sister maid, I am Mo Li Niang of the Mo family in Xiaowan Village, I didn't take the wrong path, I came to visit Miss Lin Cuiping Lin, she is over there, please give way." ”
With a maid sister, the identity and status of the two of them were clearly understood, I am a village girl, yes, I am shabby, but I am also nobler than you, the person who sold yourself into slavery.
Hearing the whispers of the ladies not far away, and seeing the eyes full of contempt, Li Niang was indifferent, she would not die if she was told a few words, wait, there will be a day when your jaws will be scared.
Xiaozhu hurriedly ran over and curtsied to Li Niang, "Slave maid to Miss Mo to say goodbye, the eldest lady asked me to pick you up and talk." ”
Then Xiaozhu's buttocks twisted, and squeezed the maid who was blocking the way aside, Li Niang silently gave Xiaozhu thirty-two likes, and wanted to go back and tell her brother that the sister-in-law's dowry maid must have Xiaozhu in it, it was too much for her appetite.
Li Niang followed Xiaozhu to the pavilion, and was about to salute Lin Cuiping, but Lin Cuiping stopped her, "Sister doesn't need to be polite, come and sit here, Xiaozhu will change the pot of hot tea." ”
"Don't bother, sister-in-law." Li Niang ignored Lin Cuiping's pretty face and turned into a red cloth, and quickly explained her intentions.
"Li Niang wants to go into the city to do errands, there is no time to sit more, here are thirty catties of dried radish, my family's new pickle varieties, my brother asked me to give it to my sister-in-law to taste, it is stir-fried, or stewed meat and fish, it is very good taste, you want to eat well, let people send a letter to the village, let's send more."
Li Niang said and handed the bag to Xiaozhu, smiled and waved her hand to say goodbye to Lin Cuiping. (To be continued.) )
