Chapter Ninety-Nine

Looking at the so many bamboo shoots on the ground, Liu Jixiang first peeled their skins, this wave was at night, and then soaked them all in cold water.

After doing all this, it was already dark, and when Liu Jixiang returned home, he found that Liu Ruyi had also returned, and there was still food left for her on the table.

"Sister, have you noticed that Aunt Li has always left her meals at our door during this time!" Liu Ruyi tilted his head, "This really flatters me!" ”

Liu Jixiang nodded his forehead, "He's not trying to please us, but he doesn't want to see us, so don't think about it, by the way, I've almost prepared the bamboo shoot thing, and I'll let people do it tomorrow, so I'm afraid I won't be able to take care of you during this time, you have to take care of yourself!" ”

Liu Ruyi nodded obediently, "I know, I promise to be obedient!" ”

Liu Jixiang smiled gently, and after explaining for a while, he couldn't stand it anymore, so he lay on the bed and fell asleep.

I woke up before dawn, Liu Ruyi also woke up, and was getting dressed, because Liu Ruyi went to school early, so he didn't eat at Li's house, but ate in the town, spending a few pennies a day to buy steamed buns, and then buy a bowl of bone broth, and sometimes buy some baked cakes to eat.

Liu Jixiang is not a stingy person, he often gives Liu Ruyi some money, sometimes it is ten Wen, sometimes it is 20 Wen, and the main purpose of doing this is to let Liu Ruyi plan his money reasonably and not develop a big nature.

Liu Ruyi is indeed a good boy, he will write down how much money he spends every day, and he will save the excess, and take it from the less.

When Liu Jixiang arrived, he found that several aunts had arrived, Liu Jixiang opened the door and let them in, first look at their hands, don't get dirty, only leave clean!

After the two aunts were eliminated, they said indignantly: "What do you little Nizi know, although we are old, we are quick to work!" ”

"What's the use of working quickly, I'm making something for others to eat, your fingernails are so dirty, how dare I use you!

Of course, you can also go to the mountains to pick bamboo shoots, I will give you a penny for five catties of bamboo shoots, and you can earn dozens of pennies a day! ”

Several aunts glanced at each other, and hurriedly ran to the mountain, Liu Jixiang shouted behind them: "It must be a complete bamboo shoot, if it is broken or in poor condition, or it is relatively old, I won't want it!" ”

The rest of the people were relatively clean, especially like children who brought water and told them to wash their hands and feet, and then asked them to tie up their hair and wrap it around with a clothcloth.

After doing all this, they began to make bamboo shoots, first of all, they took out the bamboo shoots that were soaked in cold water yesterday, tore them into strips, and put them on bamboo mats to dry.

After a while, the aunts picked a lot of bamboo shoots back, Liu Jixiang asked them to peel the bamboo shoots, and then soak them in cold water, this back and forth tossing for a day, thousands of catties of bamboo shoots were quickly done, as for the pickled bamboo shoots work, Liu Jixiang did not dare to hand it over to them, but did it himself.

Anyway, pickling bamboo shoots is very simple, just sprinkle a layer of salt and then put some sorghum wine into it, and put the pickled bamboo shoots in a cool and ventilated place, and you can eat it in about 10 days, if the weather is hot, 5 days will be fine.

It wasn't until the branches on the moon that Liu Jixiang finished pickling all the bamboo shoots, slowly stood up with his hands on the corner, and moved his muscles and bones, there will be a tough battle tomorrow.

Indeed, the next few days will be even busier, and some people will indiscriminately fill the number, taking those older bamboo shoots or bamboo shoots with missing heads and broken tails, and even some people mixing soil into the bamboo shoots, Liu Jixiang all hit back, and directly said no.

He also said that if there was a next time, he would never accept their bamboo shoots again, and sure enough, the next people were much more honest and did not dare to take some bad bamboo shoots to fill the number.

Here, the people in the village also knew that Liu Jixiang was collecting bamboo shoots, originally they didn't agree with such a thing, but that kind of bamboo shoots couldn't be sold, and if Liu Jixiang collected them, they could at least make some money, so gradually, there was no such resistance.

But some people are very strange, Liu Jixiang said what are these bamboo shoots for? This bamboo shoot is so bitter, I heard that it is used for food, will anyone buy this thing? What if I get that recipe myself? So many people ask how to do it openly and secretly, but they all do it, it's not too bitter, it's too astringent, and they can't do it at all.

Forget it, the key is that if they really make bamboo shoots, who should they sell them to? So after thinking about it, they became much more honest and obediently went to the mountains to pick bamboo shoots.

There are a lot of bamboo shoots on the mountain, but fortunately, the weather is good these days, after the bamboo shoots are washed, they will soon dry almost in the shade, as for the remaining pickling and jarging, those are relatively simple, and it doesn't take too much effort.

Some people still didn't give up and found out where Li went.

"Aunt Li, do you know what your daughter-in-law has been doing lately? After collecting so many bamboo shoots, who are you going to sell to? ”

Of course, the Li family also knew about it, but she didn't dare to inquire, she was afraid that after Liu Jixiang's little slut found out, she would be beaten again.

"This is our family's family affair, what are you doing with so much? If you have this spare time, you might as well go to the mountains and pick more bamboo, so that you can sell it for more money! "The Li family can't find Liu Jixiang to go out, so can't he find someone for a long time to vent his anger!

The aunt was so angry, "What are you proud of, I have watched Liu Ruyi for so long, and I didn't let you go to see it, let alone tell you, I guess I don't take you in my eyes at all!" ”

Of course, Li will not admit it, "What nonsense are you talking about?" It's because the work over there is too hard, my daughter-in-law feels sorry for me and won't let me pass, and besides, I don't want to get involved with people like you, my son is about to be admitted to Xiucai, and then I will be Xiucai's mother, maybe I will become the mother of the champion, in fact, you can be compared with a country woman? ”

When the aunt heard this, she was so angry, "Okay, I'll see if your daughter-in-law will give you a penny after she makes money, don't forget that you fought before, maybe you have already left your heart, and now it's just that your face and heart don't match!" ”

This is really right by this aunt, he and Liu Jixiang are now at odds with each other, no, it should be said that there is no harmony on the surface.

Li hated Liu Jixiang and was afraid of Liu Jixiang, but even so, as long as she didn't say it, how could others know, so she killed and didn't admit it.

"There's no such thing at all, my daughter-in-law can listen to me!" Lee's dead duck said hardly.
