Be sure to wash the fish blood cleanly, otherwise the fishy smell will be stronger.

The original method of fish stew is also very simple, you only need to use ginger and green onion to burst the pot, add a little soy sauce to enhance the flavor after the oil temperature rises, add a little star anise, sugar, rice wine, you can also add a little pepper, and you can also put peppercorns.

Then add the water, wait until the soup in the pot boils, and add the washed fish.

After boiling, simmer over low heat, add garlic and salt after about two quarters of an hour, then reduce the juice, the soup is almost done, and finally add shredded green onions and coriander.

The sea fish stewed in this way not only retains the umami of the fish itself, but also does not have any fishy smell.

The family of three enjoyed a lavish dinner.

When the moon is on the willow tops, it is already silent.

It is said that the moon of the fifteenth is sixteen round, but the moon of the fifteenth is also big and round, the deep and mysterious night sky has no bounds, and human beings seem so small and humble in front of the universe.

In the center of the courtyard is a table with auspicious fruits and mooncakes symbolizing reunion.

The moon cakes of this period did not have as many patterns and types as in later generations, and some were just a simple filling, and the five kinds of nuts imply a good harvest and reunion.

I don't know if it's Xue'er's illusion, but I always feel that the moon in this era is very close to me, as if it is within reach.

As the only two women in the family, Yun and Xue'er burned incense one after another, facing the moon in the sky, pious worship to the moon.

Looking at the full moon in the sky, Xue'er couldn't help but think of a poem: "The young girl is only six years old, and she doesn't know whether she is clever or clumsy." In front of the church at night, the scholars worship the crescent moon. ”

She's a pseudo-Lori who also learns to look like a child.,Worship the moon like a decent.,It's a coke to think about.。

As a large number of grapes ripened, except for those that were given away to eat with his own family, Dong Changhe hid all the grapes that were ripe later.

The Dong family does not have an ice cellar, and the only way to store grapes is the most primitive method.

That is, there are several large vats in the cellar of the Dong family, and the bottom layer of the jar is covered with fine sand, and the upper layer is horizontally placed with wooden shelves, and bunches of grapes are hung on the wooden shelf, and then the same is true for the upper two layers.

The grapes stored in this way do not perish, they are still fresh in winter, and they taste good.

After the Mid-Autumn Festival, it is time to harvest various crops one after another.

It is common to see flocks of geese lining up to fly south, sometimes forming big characters, sometimes forming human characters.

This year's situation is special, Dong Changhe used public weapons for private use, and summoned some of Shuijiazhuang's subordinates to Dong's house to help harvest crops.

Millet, sorghum, and rice are the main crops, and there are also some other crops, such as mung beans, red beans, soybeans, and so on.

It wasn't until the end of October that the Dong family's various grains entered the warehouse one after another.

Some of the soybeans are kept for grinding noodles or making tofu, and some of them are pulled to the oil mill for oil extraction.

These things don't have to worry about Xue'er, a child, and her daily task now is to take care of the Yun family who is about to give birth.

At this time, the land tax was very light, and the forty tax was one, that is, the harvest was forty catties, and the tax of one catty was handed over to the imperial court.

Dong Xiucai has a meritorious reputation and can be exempted from a part of the tax burden, but if it exceeds a certain number of acres, other land under his name still has to pay taxes.

And those who have meritorious service are not required to serve in conscription.

At this time, ordinary people had to serve in conscription every year, of course, they could not go, but they had to pay a certain amount of compensation to the imperial court.

Adult men serve 20 days a year, and naturally they can be replaced by cloth, silver, etc.

There is also a conscription of the imperial court, at least once every three years, and the conscription is requisitioned according to the household registration, and there are clear regulations during the period.

Some people who don't want to be soldiers can also pay part of the financial exemption.

Although the status of merchants in this era was not very high, it was not very lowly, because merchants also paid taxes to the imperial court, and the tax amount was much higher than that of peasants.

However, the fact that business status cannot be studied and followed by entry has not changed.

In general, the tax burden of this era was not very high, which was all due to the new construction of the Daxi Dynasty.

In mid-October, the sweet potatoes on the mountain were ripe, and Xue'er used the same method to let Dong Changhe know the sweet potatoes and dig them all home. I got a total of more than 2,000 catties of sweet potatoes.

Xue'er also encouraged Dong Changhe to take the sweet potato vines home and feed them to pigs and sheep, confirming that the sweet potato vines are also good feed.

What made Dong Changhe happy was not only this, but also the potatoes he personally experimented with were also harvested, and he harvested more than 4,000 catties of potatoes again.

At the same time, he also personally recorded the growth habits of potatoes and so on.

The discovery of these two high-yield crops made Dong Changhe's idea of setting up another pot more urgent.

The canned food stored in the cellar was also sold by Dong Changhe, and the merchant came to inspect the goods in person.

The price of all kinds of canned fruits is different, the cheapest is canned peaches, which also sells for a jar of 100 Wen, and the highest sells for 200 Wen.

Dong Changhe also got more than 200 taels of silver for these cans, and after deducting the cost, he also made a net profit of nearly 200 taels.

In order to make the canned food business still have to do in the future, Dong Changhe deliberately sold these canned foods to his old customer.

Because the things of this old customer are sold to Tiezhou, Tokyo and Shangjing.

It is far away from Changhai County, so it is not easy to be imitated.

made a lot of money, which made Dong Changhe and his wife very happy.

Who would have thought that those inconspicuous crooked melons and cracked dates could also be used to make money?

The husband and wife thought at the same time that this can was made by their daughter, and in order to reward Xue'er, Dong Changhe also bought a pair of silver bracelets for Xue'er and put them on for Xue'er personally.

Yun even made two thick clothes for Xue'er with his stomach up, which he kept for winter.

But soon, Dong Changhe's attention was replaced by something else.

In late October, Dong Changhe took Zhao's sister-in-law to Dong's house and accompanied Yun's pregnant woman every day.

Sister-in-law Zhao is a very good woman, she did not treat herself purely as a guest, waiting for Xue'er to serve, but instead helped Xue'er do a lot of work within her ability.

The days passed, and just when the Dong family was waiting for it, the Yun clan launched on the fifth day of the first month of November.

It was the second half of the night when the Yun clan launched, and the sky was about to dawn.

Dong Changhe happened to be at home, called Zhao's sister-in-law and Xue'er up, and he drove the carriage to Sanjiagou to take the Qin family to the Dong family.

At that time, the Yun family had not yet given birth, and was slowly walking on the ground with the help of Zhao's sister-in-law.

The bedroom was made into a temporary delivery room for the Yun family, and the mat on the kang was rolled up, and the kang was covered with thick straw and plant ash.

Xue'er boiled water in the kitchen, made a casserole of millet porridge, and boiled a dozen eggs.

By the time the Qin family arrived, Xue'er had already sent the food of the Yun family and Zhao's sister-in-law, and the two were eating.

Qin and Dong Changhe saw that the Yun family was not yet in production, and the two of them also used it simply.
