"The hanged ghost is the biggest, I heard that the dead ghost has become a powerful ghost, and there is a rope around his neck."

Tan said with some horror, and subconsciously raised his hand and stroked his arm, a little chilly.

Lao Yang shook his head, picked up the dry tobacco stick in his hand again, stuffed it back into his mouth, and smoked it.

Tan groped his way to the Eight Immortals Table and began to collect the gifts sent by a few rooms.

The hidden is hidden, and the plug is stopped.

What should be kept for Mei'er is all kept, and she is very busy.

……

Wax Moon is a busy year.

In the last day, the sun was fine.

Yang Ruoqing helped Sun kill and wash fish by the well in the backyard.

These fish were all bought by Yang Huazhong when he went to the town early in the morning, and they were all grass carp.

Each one weighed five or six pounds, and I bought seven or eight of them.

"Qing'er, are these grass carp used to make salted fish?" Sun asked as he slaughtered.

Yang Ruoqing was also so busy that her hands and feet didn't stop, and when she heard this, she glanced at the fish in the big pot at her feet.

"Leave one of the largest grass carp braised at noon and eat it fresh, and make all the others into salted dried fish." She said.

Sun said: "Okay! ”

"Take out all the roe from the fish's belly, and turn around and cook it with the fish pieces at noon." Yang Ruoqing advised again.

Sun smiled and nodded.

The mother and daughter killed the big fish, washed it, and then cut a three-dimensional fish into a plan.

Salt the inside and out, and use the prepared bamboo skewers to push the sides of the fish.

Finally, tie a thick hemp rope to the fish's mouth and hang it on a horizontal bamboo pole in the yard to dry.

Seeing that the big fish were hung up, under the warm sun of the wax moon, the few scales that had not been scraped clean glowed with a faint golden light.

Yang Ruoqing was very happy.

Sun was even more happy.

"It's like a dream now." Sun couldn't help but say.

"In the past, I never dreamed that we would be able to marinate so many salted fish during the New Year."

"I remember one year for the Chinese New Year, before the family was separated, there was a chopstick-long crucian carp on the Chinese New Year's Eve dinner."

"Your grandmother didn't let everyone get off the chopsticks, saying that she wanted to keep them for relatives on the first and second days of the first month, hey!"

Remembering the bittersweet thoughts, Sun shook his head lightly, with a look of emotion on his face.

Yang Ruoqing looked up at the big fish, and the corners of her lips curled with pleasure.

"These fish have been dried into salted fish, and if you keep them properly, you can eat them until April!" She said.

Sun nodded in agreement.

"By the way, Qing'er, will the sausages still be filled this year?" She asked.

Yang Ruoqing said: "Irrigation, ironclad irrigation!" ”

Sun said: "That's good, we didn't have many sausages last year, and we didn't let you taste them, so let's fill more this year." ”

Yang Ruoqing smiled happily: "This matter, my mother is worried about it." ”

"I've already said hello to my aunt, and I'll get all the pig farms when I go back."

Sausages are a good thing, and several younger siblings in the family love to eat them.

Sending ingredients to several restaurants is another highlight to attract customers.

The mother and daughter returned to the well and chopped the big grass carp that was going to be burned at noon into small pieces.

I will cook a pot at noon, and then send a bowl to Ga Po, Lao Yang Tou, Luo Blacksmith, Chang Geng and Da Niu.

"Mother, sister, there are a lot of outsiders in our village......"

Xiao An jumped a few times and ran to the backyard, shouting excitedly.

Sun raised his head and glanced at Xiao An lovingly: "If you come, you'll come, look at your sweaty head, come here, my mother will wipe you." ”

Yang Ruoqing raised her head and asked Xiao An: "What kind of foreigners are they?" Whose house to go to? ”

Xiao An said: "One by one, there is an old uncle, and they went to Uncle Lizheng's house. ”

Boss Gao? And an old uncle?

Yang Ruoqing suddenly remembered the caravan from Daliao that she met in Wanghai County a few days ago.

At that time, the old man surnamed Yan who was the leader was still asking her about how Changping Village came about!

I wanted to ask something more, Xiao An, who had wiped her sweat, had already cheered and ran to the front yard.

Forget it, let's go back and see it when it's free.

Then wash the fish.

The mother and daughter came to the stove room to prepare to cook the fish, and Yang Huazhong just came back.

The man had just come from the village and knew about it.

"I heard them say that it is a group of merchants from the Great Liao Kingdom in the north, and this son is in Lizheng's house."

"Li Zhengbo invited several clan elders in the village to accompany him, by the way, he also found Qing'er Ye and the little old Yang Tou in the south of the village."

The man told his wife and daughter in the stove what he heard.

Sun was surprised, "What are the merchants from the Liao Kingdom doing in our village?" Isn't there something big about it? ”

The woman was timid and feared many things.

When I heard this, I couldn't help but think about the bad side.

Yang Huazhong hurriedly said: "Qing'er Niang, don't panic. ”

"Look at those merchants, all of them are amiable. Li Zheng also invited a few village elders, maybe he wants to pave the way for us to build a bridge! ”

The man hurriedly reassured.

Sun was skeptical.

At this time, Yang Ruoqing, who had been silent, said: "Mother, don't panic, I also want to go with my father." ”

Then, she told the two of them about the old man surnamed Yan she met a few days ago.

"Maybe they're coming to our village." She said.

……

The fish is cooked in a large pot using the most primitive method of the farmer.

Salty, spicy, boil out the deliciousness of the fish soup.

Estimating that the heat of the fish was almost over, Sun found several bowls and filled them with fish pieces and roe and soup respectively.

I am going to send it to a few relatives and friends.

The back house of the old Yang family.

When Yang Ruoqing sent the fish over, at the door of the east wing, Tan was sitting there basking in the sun, and the old Yang was not there.

"Milk, my grandfather hasn't come home yet?" She asked.

Tan Shi said angrily: "Who knows, I was called by Li Zheng in the middle of the day, and I know what I want to say, and I won't be allowed to come back to eat......"

Yang Ruoqing was not interested in chatting with Tan's family, so she told her about the fish, and turned back.

The family had a hearty lunch, a whole fish feast.

At night, Lao Yang Tou sent Yang Yongqing over to pass the word.

"Third uncle, I asked you to go to the old mansion quickly, there is something to say, the sooner the better!"

Leaving these words, Yang Yongqing pulled his legs and ran away.

Yang Huazhong and Sun looked at each other.

Yang Huazhong frowned: "Didn't you just hold a family meeting last night?" In such a hurry, what's wrong? ”

Sun was also confused.

Yang Ruoqing said: "If you go and see, you will know, let's go, Dad, let's go over together." ”

Sun stayed at home to take care of Da'an and Xiao'an, and the father and daughter entered the village with lanterns.

In the east wing of the old mansion, when Yang Ruoqing and Yang Huazhong arrived, Yang Hua'an, Yang Hualin, Yang Huaming, and Liu all arrived.
