Chapter 86: There is no way back

Kong Mingying only knows two ways to make zuò olives, that is, like soaking Sichuan pickles, using a double-mouth jar with a side of the altar, and putting the olives into salt water and sugar water respectively, but making olives in winter, whether they are sugar or salted, it takes at least half a month to be delicious, and the color is not very good-looking.

Yu Mingyue learned a different method in her previous life, the ratio of salt and sugar was heavier, and she had to add a red herb called red berry grass on the mountain, the juice of this herb was lighter than red ink, not only to color the fruit, but also to clear the fire and moisten the lungs, and also to have an antiseptic effect.

Put the olives that are washed and dried on the surface of the water vapor into the single-mouth jar without the side, cover the lid, seal the lid with lime slurry, and bury the jar in a dry and cool underground, as long as it is not opened, it will not deteriorate if buried in the ground for a year or two, the longer the time, the better the taste, Yu Mingyue has eaten it in her previous life.

This time, although she saw that her grandmother's method was different, the principle was the same, and the purpose was to take it into the city to sell, Yu Mingyue felt that it was more convenient and trouble-free, so she did not raise any objections, but only planned to wait for it to be made, under the pretext of bad color, first secretly add red berry grass to make a better looking finished product, and then use this physical comparison to directly persuade adults.

Yu Mingyue has always been a man of action, saying that she would collect melon seeds, and the next morning, she made an appointment with Yu Mingyue early, and began to spread the information among the children in the village that her family had been collecting pumpkin seeds for a long time, sunflower seeds for 1 dime a catty, and peanuts for 2 dimes a catty.

Earlier, Yu Mingyue didn't care to have any contact with those little children in the village, but in order to make money and for her big plans, she still let go of her heart and walked into the group of children outside the village.

The two lives in the countryside, Yu Mingyue knows very well that in late autumn, every household has collected more or less pumpkins, pumpkins are mostly stored to feed pigs in winter in addition to a small number of boiled as vegetables, and this is the time when the pumpkin seeds are harvested the most.

Whoever has pumpkin seeds, or plants some sunflower seeds and a few handfuls of peanuts on the edge of the corn field every year, is just a snack for adults and children on weekdays, or when there are guests, fry some peanuts to entertain guests, no one thinks about selling them, and no one collects them.

Yu Mingyue spent a day, and as soon as Yu Mingyan released this sentence in the village, the adults had not yet inquired about the truth of the news, and many children came to the door with large pockets of pumpkin seeds, ready to sell them for money, so that they could buy snacks at the public sales cooperative.

When they really saw the child secretly go home to hide the money, or saw the child go home and show off the few dimes and dollars in his hand, the adults outside the village finally believed that the news was true.

However, how much can pumpkin seeds sell for? There is no way to make money by collecting melon seeds, it is all a child's blind work. Many adults think so, and they basically ignore their children's daily snacks for takeaway money, or take the initiative to help the family chop pumpkins every day, but they like to hear about it.

Many people still think that their children are finally smarter than Yu Mingyue, who has always been sensible, and there are many people who are not right-hearted, ready to see Yu Mingyue's "stupid" jokes.

Who thinks about it, Yu Mingyue doesn't know, but after experiencing all kinds of things in her previous life, she knows very well that at this time, there are many adults who treat her as a joke and an ignorant melon baby, but she doesn't care at all.

The first batch of olives produced is not good, but the purchase of melon seeds is unusually smooth, a few days, not only piled up a few large snakeskin bags of olive fruits, but also piled up a few snakeskin bags of pumpkin seeds, sunflower seeds, 1987 lunar winter month 18, Kong Xingming and Niu Guizhi wedding festive day has come.

Kong Mingfu's eldest son does a happy event, his family attaches great importance to it, although everyone is still poor in this era, Kong Mingfu's family has just entered the city to sell vegetables and has little money to spare, but still in the first two days of the day, began to kill pigs and sheep to be busy, only Kong Xingming, who wants to be the groom, earns money and earns addiction, when it is his turn to sell vegetables, he still goes into the city to sell vegetables with Kong Xingjiang, who does not like to talk.

Uncle did a happy event, Yu Mingyue was not willing to lag behind to contribute, in addition to preparing a new Mao suit for her uncle early and a pair of leather shoes as a gift, she also followed her mother to help two days earlier.

In the past two days, Yu Mingyue has been happy every day, Xu is eldest son has finally married, her grandmother has been very happy in the past two days, and she has not scolded anyone for nothing, every time she sees her and her mother, although there is no smile, although the words she says when she wants to order something are also cold, but the disgust and hatred in the past are gone.

Maybe this is a good start, seeing her mother grinning happily from time to time, Yu Mingyue, who is even more happy and relieved, also feels that the world is brighter.

On the eighteenth day of the winter month, it was Yu Mingyue's turn to sell vegetables, but because it was a big day for his in-laws to do a happy event, Yu Tianzhou had already greeted the customers in the community, and he was going to close for a day today.

Yu Mingyue had let go of some tangled mentality earlier, and what she was looking forward to recently was that in this good day, how could she not be happy, yesterday her grandfather said that she would be asked to marry today, so Yu Mingyue was dressed very grandly today.

deliberately wore the red tweed trench coat with a hood, black cotton wool pants with a colorful bear pattern, red small leather shoes with butterfly flowers, and even the hair that had just grown into a vest was tied with a high horsehair with the butterfly flower head rope given by Mrs. Chen, looking well-behaved and cute and very spiritual.

When she arrived at the door of her grandfather's house early, many relatives who helped and were going to get married also arrived, and seeing her grandfather and a few old men standing on the side of the cow road chatting, Yu Mingyue thought about it and walked directly to the gate.

Before she reached the door, she saw Kong Xiaoqiong, who was obviously wearing new clothes, walking out of the door with a basket on her back, and Yu Mingyue smiled sweetly and took a few steps to greet her.

"Second aunt, are you going to greet your relatives today?" For this second aunt, Yu Mingyue still feels close, although the two families lived too far away in the previous life, and the second aunt was not in charge of the house at that time, but the second aunt still took care of her, and she always remembered this feeling.

"Hehe, Satsuki." Kong Xiaoqiong glanced at her niece in front of her, who was dressed like a child in the city, a trace of disdain flashed in her eyes, but she also smiled and said: "Well, I have to go to make it, your mother is pregnant, you are at home today to accompany your mother, the road is far away, and a child like you is also a drag." ”

Don't let go? But yesterday, my grandfather and uncle were obviously a little stunned, but it was only a moment, and after rolling their eyes, they glanced inside the door, and a trace of hatred flashed in their hearts, and they immediately chuckled and nodded obediently: "Oh, then I'll play at home." ”

Only glanced at the open red lacquer gate, and Yu Mingyue saw that Tang Wanfang, who could make her grit her teeth with hatred, was sitting under the pomegranate tree in the courtyard with her grandmother, muttering something.

With this Tang Wanfang here, there must be no good thing, this dead demon woman, who doesn't sell vegetables to make money, comes here early in the morning to chew the root of her tongue, there must be some conspiracy.

Seeing that the second aunt was obviously going to pick vegetables, she didn't pay attention to her meaning, after Yu Mingyue finished answering, she walked directly to the courtyard, ready to mix in the lively crowd, and hide behind a few bushes of peony flowers next to the pomegranate tree to eavesdrop.

"I didn't have a good heart to be separated from you, fourth sister-in-law, you are too soft-hearted, I said this for your good, if you don't believe it, you can inquire in the village, or let your boss come to confront me, and then see if she will change her and fool people to pretend to be generous."

"What did the seventh brother and sister say, I have been with you all these years, can I still not believe you? In the future, don't be a boss or a boss, I have long been a nemesis who has never given birth to a nemesis without a conscience. Luo Zhengfen said, took Tang Wanfang's hand, and then sighed with a sad face: "Alas, my life, I gave birth to her, I was born to overcome me, and after today, I have to ask her well, what kind of heart do I have." ”

Seeing that Luo Zhengfen was sad, Tang Wanfang held back the happiness in her heart, and made persistent efforts to "persuade": "You, you are really able to bear it, you have to worry about your children for a lifetime, and the other six are also filial, but that Kong Xiaoyu is really a natural conscience, alas"

Born to lose conscience? When Yu Mingyue heard this, her heart was already furious, and her little body hiding behind the peony flower on the edge of the courtyard trembled with anger.

Although she didn't hear what the two of them said before, but when she only heard this, she already understood that Tang Wanfang was teasing her grandmother again, and when she heard the two of them still muttering and cursing her mother, she really wanted to ignore it, so she immediately rushed out and pointed at Tang Wanfang's old witch's nose and scolded her.

Although she was extremely angry, Yu Mingyue still retained some reason, knowing that her uncle was about to go out to greet her relatives, and this was not the time to quarrel with others, and she couldn't let her uncle's happy event be unlucky.

Afraid of something, Yu Mingyue didn't want to listen to her grandmother's curse on her biological daughter anymore, and was about to turn around and quietly stand up, Tang Wanfang swept her eyes and saw the small figure of Hua Cong, and after being stunned, her little eyes rolled, and her heart suddenly became happy.

"Satsuki, what are you doing hiding there like a thief?" Tang Wanfang said as she quickly stood up and walked behind the flowers, and dragged Yu Mingyue out with all her might.

Luo Zhengfen was a little surprised, but his eyes immediately showed full of disgust, he got up and poked Yu Mingyue's head and scolded angrily: "What kind of virtue are you, you dare to eavesdrop when adults speak, it's really a dog cub born to eat shit, and a mouse cub is born to make holes."

Seeing that Luo Zhengfang was about to make trouble, he was going to lose face on the day of the happy event where his relatives gathered, Tang Wanfang, who had made his wish, was very happy in his heart, but he pretended to be very decent and generous and gently pulled Luo Zhengfen, and persuaded bitterly: "Okay, okay, don't be angry, the child is not sensible, don't beat her, and then educate her slowly when she is older." ”

Where was Luo Zhengfen willing to listen, seeing that Yu Mingyue just blushed her neck with red eyes and didn't answer, she was so angry that she patted Yu Mingyue's head harder, and scolded fiercely: "Are you dumb?" Ask you, what are you going to do? If you don't learn well at a young age, ask you! What are you doing here? ”

Tang Wanfang kept persuading, but he couldn't pull Luo Zhengfen to slap the hand on Yu Mingyue's head, and he was so frightened that he shouted for help to the frightened relatives in the courtyard: "Come on!" Come and a few people to help persuade you, Xingming, Xingming, come and pull your mother. The child is not sensible, don't fight, don't fight, fourth sister-in-law, you can dissipate your anger, and educate her after today. ”

These words make people listen to it, like Yu Mingyue, a 5~6-year-old child, who has done something heinous and rebellious, and even more exaggerated, even more exaggerated, even if it is enough to call someone to help, he directly shouted the name of today's groom official.

Yu Mingyue has somewhat understood Tang Wanfang's mind since she was pulled out, where will this Tang Wanfang be really happy, even if the ponytail on her head was beaten away by her grandmother, and the butterfly head flower was also knocked to the ground, she still stood with her neck bowed, thinking that her grandmother would never kill her, and she should be quiet and let her get out, and at the same time hated Tang Wanfang a little bit in her heart.

But at this time, seeing that Tang Wanfangming was pretending to persuade her, which really added fuel to the fire, and now she even shouted her uncle's name loudly, and saw that the relatives who heard the movement were all attracted over, or stood aside, or began to come up to persuade her, Yu Mingyue was already angry in her heart.

Today it seems that there is no way back! Yu Mingyue secretly gritted her teeth and read out every word angrily, and she had decided in her heart to give Tang Wanfang a painful blow today.

Tang Wanfang, the old witch, saw a good time, and the arrangement would add a shadow to her uncle's wedding, not to mention, it was not a good time for her to punish Tang Wanfang, but the matter has come to this point, all the bad luck has been made out by Tang Wanfang, and she has no last scruples, so why do you need to swallow her anger again.

Yu Mingyue suddenly raised her head, which was originally hanging low, and didn't want to look at her grandmother, so she only glanced at Tang Wanfang coldly, and then glanced at the relatives with different expressions, and then turned her eyes back at Tang Wanfang without warmth, and looked at Tang Wanfang coldly.

"My family said, you are my seventh grandmother, my elder, although I am still young and ignorant, but I feel that you are not worthy of being an elder at all, and you are not worthy of me to call you by the three words of seventh grandmother, the eldest aunt in the village all say that you are a poisonous woman, and a poisonous woman is also a human being, but I think you are not worthy of being a human being at all."
