Chapter 62: Sending Fish
Huang Jiang's clan knew that the eldest sister would also go to Qitang to pick up leaks, and knew that they would definitely get their clothes dirty.
Therefore, Huang Jiang's family had already prepared hot water in the pot for them to bathe, and even clothes were prepared for them.
After the Huang Yiyun sisters went home, they each held their clothes and went to wash.
As for the two concubines of the Huang Jiang clan, the fish and river mussels touched back by Huang Yiyun's sister and brother were classified, and they were each raised with wooden basins to store water.
........。
Zhang's family.
"How many fish have we sold in the village today, and how much have we sold?" After the people who helped the pond left, after the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law of the Zhang family cleaned up, the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law of the Zhang family sat together and counted the money.
"We estimate that there are more than 30 families in Qingshan Village, and they have bought the fish from our pond, and each family has about three or four, each four or five catties. We sold five taels of silver and two taels of silver today, and sixty-seven copper plates. Zhang Lin counted and said.
"Well, it's okay, it's more sold than in previous years?" Village Chief Zhang nodded, it was more than he expected.
"Something to talk about." Village Chief Zhang glanced at the second family, and asked after seeing that the second family wanted to speak again.
"Dad, there are a lot of people who come to our house to sell fish today, and my younger siblings and I can only do average arithmetic.
The second brother and sister are afraid that the eldest sister of the Huang family will miscalculate, and when the time comes, they will be from the villagers, and they are afraid that the villagers will come to our family for trouble, so the second brother and sister have memorized a few numbers and want their father to recalculate them, so that we can be prepared. On the side, after Zhang Wangshi saw that Zhang Yun's wanted to speak and stopped, Zhang Wang's hurriedly said.
"Well, what a number." After Village Chief Zhang stared at the two daughters-in-law, he asked out loud.
Zhang Wang's concubine and concubine were uncomfortable when they were looked at by their father-in-law, as if they could see the little ninety-nine in their hearts.
"One fifteen pounds, one seventeen pounds, one fourteen pounds." Zhang Yunshi memorized the weight of the money and fish calculated by the three Huang Yiyuns, and said them for Village Chief Zhang to review.
"One hundred and thirty-five copper plates, one hundred and fifty-three copper plates, one hundred and twenty-six copper plates." Village Chief Zhang silently calculated the truth.
"That's all right! My mother said that the eldest sister of the Huang family is not sure that she will not come to our house to help calculate the money, and the person who is in charge of the house will come to our house to help start the pond, and we will send a few fish to their families this time. Seeing his daughter-in-law's embarrassed appearance, didn't Zhang Lin know that after the eldest sister of the Huang family counted a good number today, Zhang Lin hurriedly asked the village chief Zhang.
"Boss, go and see how many fish are left in our house now, and calculate it."
"Dad, there are about thirty big ones, there are still about twenty small ones, and there are many more crucian carp and carp." Zhang Dalang came back from outside for a while and said to Village Chief Zhang.
"In previous years, we have helped to send two grass carp, but this year there is one carp. After the rest of the fish, except for a few left by their own family to be eaten as prickly fish and preserved fish, the eldest and second went to the town and sold all these fish for silver.
There are seven families who come to our house to help in the pond, you four brothers, the old family, your mother and I each go to one family, and send this fish to it, this matter should be sooner rather than later. Village Chief Zhang pondered for a while.
"Okay, Dad, I'll go pick up the fish and tie the fish." Zhang Shilang went out and said.
..........。
"Grandma, let's give these small fish and shrimp to the Liu family!" Huang Yiyun looked at the fish, mussels, and snails in several wooden barrels in front of him and said to Huang Li.
In a wooden barrel, there are most of the more common fish such as crucian carp, carp, eel, and fritters that have been touched today.
In a wooden barrel, there was a river mussel that I had picked up today, and there was a bucket full of it.
In a wooden barrel, the snails that the younger siblings picked up in the field from time to time were raised.
In a wooden barrel is the ground cage put by the younger siblings, and the small fish and shrimp caught from the ground cage.
In the last barrel, when the ground cage was placed, all the yellow eels and loaches caught from it were picked out and put together.
No wonder when he settled in Qingshan Village before, Village Chief Zhang said that as long as there are diligent people in the village, there is no hunger, so many aquatic products, even if the Huang family has more, it is enough for the Huang family to eat for several days.
In addition, now the vegetables in their own vegetable garden are gradually being eaten, and now in addition to the staple food, the Huang family has no shortage of food.
"Don't send small fish and shrimp, if you want to send them, send bigger fish." Huang Li nodded.
"I saw that the brothers and sisters of the Liu family also went down to the pond today to touch a lot of fish, our family sent them over, I am afraid that they will not pick up, the eldest sister saw Liu Yun when she went down to the pond, she did not touch the fish, instead, holding a dustpan in the fish pond to catch small fish and shrimp, the eldest sister estimated that it was not Uncle Liu or Aunt Liu liked to eat small fish and shrimp, if you want to send it, we will send it to meet people's hearts.
What's more, small fish and shrimp, they will not refuse to refuse. Huang Yiyun thought about it and said.
"That's it, just send small fish and shrimp, and also, all the small fish and shrimp that our family has dried in the summer will be sent to the Liu family." Huang Li thought for a moment and said.
Because the small fish is not easy to remove the internal organs, so when the dried small fish is fried, with a bitter taste, Huang Yiyun fried a meal for the Huang family to eat, and several small ones of the Huang family and Huang Conghe don't like to eat, as for Huang Li and Huang Liu, they can't talk about liking it, and they can't say they don't like it, some of them eat it, and they don't eat it if they don't have to eat.
After that, Huang Yiyun did not fry the dried fish anymore.
The small fish and shrimp caught in the ground cage, the Huang family was reluctant to fry them in oil, Huang Yiyun dried all these small fish and shrimp, and stored a lot of small fish and dried shrimp.
"The eldest sister is gone." Huang Yiyun walked to Liu's house next door with a bucket of fresh fish and shrimp in one hand and dried fish and shrimp wrapped in lotus leaves in the other.
"Uncle, aunt Brother Liu, Second Brother Liu and Sister Liu Yun, are you all there?" After Huang Yiyun arrived at Liu's house, the floor of Liu's yard was paved with bluestone slabs, and the house built was not a blue brick house, but it was built of adobe like the Huang family, but the roof was covered with green tiles, which was much stronger than the Huang family.
As far as the eye can see, the Liujiatang house is bright, there are two rooms on the left and right, and under the eaves outside, there are four rooms on the left and right.
The house built by the Liu family is much larger than that of the Huang family.
At this time, on the ground of the courtyard of the Liu family, there was a small burlap bag, and the family was rubbing the corn kernels.
