Chapter 35 Wrapping Zongzi

What makes Siqi happy is that the pepper seeds that he sowed with Xuan's earlier have germinated, and the small seedlings are thriving in the ground, and they can grow some every day, and now they are already a small patch of green, and they can be transplanted when they grow a little taller.

Siqi pays attention to her pepper seedlings and silkworm seeds every day, both of which she bothered to make after she came here.

When the pepper seedlings were bigger, Siqi immediately pulled Xuan's over, "Mother, the seedlings have grown so much, I think we can transplant them, so that they can grow faster." ”

Xuan smiled and said, "Okay, it's not much anyway, now it's over for a while." ”

The self-reserved land behind the Lin family is still quite large, and a little space can be used to plant these pepper seedlings in the corners and corners, and Siqi has to look at it every day to see if it needs to be watered or something, for fear that something will go wrong.

Just waiting, the silkworm seeds have also begun to have big changes, a small part of the silkworm seeds have appeared on the blue dots, at this time should be shading, and then the temperature is higher, which helps the silkworm seeds hatch.

Si Qi was not idle after finishing the silkworm seeds, Meng Shan and the three sisters finished all the things, and went to the ridge to pull the herbs, and Si Qi also followed.

Meng Shan said, "It's not a lot at this time, and when it comes to the summer, there will be a lot of people on this ridge, but there are also a lot of people, and our children in the countryside rely on these things to sell some money to subsidize their families on weekdays, and everyone is like this." ”

Siqi nodded, and followed them with a basket, she really didn't know how to do this.

She had heard of prunella, but she hadn't paid attention to what it looked like, but it was also easy to recognize, and after Meng Shan taught her, she thought about it, one by one, with purple flowers.

Mengzhu was next to Siqi and taught her, "You have to pull up the roots, you slow down, don't be too anxious, and you only want it with the pharmacy, otherwise it will be scattered." ”

Siqi nodded, slowed down, and followed them to pull herbs, busy for a while, and there were quite a few in the small basket.

After two days of busy work, Siqi really filled a basket of herbs, and he was so happy, he didn't know how much he could sell for so much.

There is another day before the Dragon Boat Festival, and the Liu family is going to the town to buy things today, so they will sell all the herbs that Meng Shan and the others pulled.

It was almost noon when Liu came back, put down the basket, and beckoned the children to come over with a smile, "This is the money you pulled from the summer dry grass sold, ten cents a catty, Siqi has a pound, fifteen cents, the three girls have a total of six catties, the big girl just keeps it, and my sister will spend it on you." ”

Mengshan This is the first time to take the money, she used to take her sister to pull the prunella grass, but the money for selling it was to be handed over to her grandmother, this time she actually had to keep it herself, although she was happy in her heart, but she was still a little embarrassed to take the money at this time.

"Mother, otherwise you can take the money."

Liu smiled and said, "Your grandmother said that you would save some pocket money for yourself, why does your mother still have to accept it?" You can just take it yourself, and the logistics will be faster, and the more you work hard, the more money you will spend. ”

Wu said, "Meng Shan just put the money away, you are also older now, it is good to save more for yourself, knowing that you are a sensible girl, grandma is happy." ”

Meng Shan took the money and said to her sister with a smile, "If you have anything to buy in the future, tell me, this money is earned by us together, although the eldest sister collects it, you should also spend this money." ”

Mengzhu and Menghuan nodded happily, "We know." ”

Siqi had fifteen cents in his hand, and looked at it a few times, this is the first pot of gold in the real sense, although it is a little less, but it is also a good start.

She took the money back into the house, put it in a small box, and said with a smile, "Sister, look at it, I will definitely fill this box in the future, and it is a silver ticket, not a copper coin." ”

Si Yao listened to her words and laughed uncontrollably, "Little girl, how old are you, you just want to make money, what are you doing with so much money?" ”

Siqi tilted his head and said, "Money is not good, if you have money in your hand, you can buy a lot of good things, and our family can also repair the house, and then the place to live will be bigger." ”

Si Yao nodded, "But by pulling herbs, when will it take to fill your box?" ”

Siqi smiled and said, "Aren't I still raising silkworms?" When the time comes, you can make money by selling the cocoons. ”

Although making money is very slow now, little by little, Siqi is very happy, this feeling of starting from scratch and being very busy makes her feel very comfortable.

After eating and resting for a while, I got up in the afternoon and was busy making zongzi, and the men couldn't help with this, so they all went to work in the field, and Wu led three daughters-in-law and a few little girls to work together.

Siqi is still the first time to make zongzi, in her previous life, her father was rich, although she did not fulfill the responsibility of being a father, but in terms of life, it is called a generous.

There are cooks, maids, and drivers at home, and it is not her turn to meddle in these things.

She knows that she wants to eat zongzi during the Dragon Boat Festival, but she has never thought about how to wrap this zongzi.

Liu went to the town today to buy red dates and bought a large bundle of dumpling leaves, although this thing can be obtained by going up the mountain by himself, but it is not expensive, such a bundle is only a few pennies, so there is no need to bother with that thought.

Wu and Xuan reconciled the stuffing in the kitchen, the rice had already been soaked, glutinous rice and small yellow rice were added, and a red date was decorated on top after wrapping it.

Wanrong was doing embroidery work in the house, everyone else was there, and Siqi also learned.

Siqi watched from the side, he really didn't know, watching the adults take two zongzi leaves and cross them, put the rice in, how did it turn into a zongzi after a few turns, and then tie it with a thread.

Looking at Mengshan Mengzhu and Si Yao again, the three of them are also very fast, and even Menghuan, which is smaller than her, is also wrapping, although the movements are a little slower, but they are also decent.

Siqi watched from the side for a long time and couldn't do it, this is too difficult.

She remembered the zongzi she had eaten in her previous life, there was no such simple, there were usually diced meat or egg yolks in them, and her favorite thing to eat was bacon zongzi, but that was developed in later generations, and there was really no one at this time.

Siqi smiled and said, "When I make a lot of money in the future, I must add meat to the rice dumplings, and we will eat meat every day." ”

Wu laughed, "Our son is still ambitious, so good, grandma believes in you, and grandma will follow you to enjoy happiness after making a lot of money in the future?" ”
