Chapter Ninety-Eight
"Fourth uncle, there are still many people who can't come back during the Dragon Boat Festival, let's discount it into silver taels, and the salary will be calculated as three times that day, and then make up for one day." This is done according to the labor law of the previous life, although it cannot be copied and used in full, but it cannot be too far behind.
Shen Youshou hurriedly recorded it after hearing this, which was really not taken into account. The regret of not being able to be with your family during the festive season is really to have a subsidy policy.
Perhaps in the eyes of others, it is the duty to do things for the owner. But under Shen Xinran's silence, everyone felt that it shouldn't be like this. In any case, you still have to enjoy your personal rights.
The plan can be implemented. Sunrise and sunset, soon to the day before the Dragon Boat Festival. Before dawn, Yishan Village was already boiling with people. The pig can't stop roaring. Today is also a spectacular scene that will not stop for a long time in Yishan Village, and people talk about Yishan with relish.
Thirty pigs continued to sloed from morning to sunset, screaming and screaming, as if crying that their lives were coming to an end. Today, people everywhere are more energetic than they used to be. Everyone is happy, and the laughter does not stop.
Today, I am looking forward to getting off work every day more than usual, and I have the eagerness to sit like a needle and look at it. There is pork and silver, and I look forward to getting off work from time to time, this day is really a happy torment.
At the end of the day, Wu Man's two parents' families rushed to Shen's house. As soon as I entered the village, I heard about today's feat, and I felt that I had come to the right place today, and it was better to come early than to come by coincidence. It was too late to make a noise, so he led the small family to the Shen family in a hurry.
"Mother. Mother, we're coming. Wu Fang Wu asked the first to see Lai Mei's fried chili sauce come out, and he didn't see it for a week, so he missed it.
"Why are you here?" At first, Lai Mei thought that she was homesick and hallucinated, but she didn't expect a pair of children to appear in front of her at the next moment. "Who told you to come?" After Lai Mei asked, she knew that she was asking nonsense, who else was in the family besides her father-in-law and mother-in-law.
"It was my grandfather and grandmother who brought us here, and the eldest sister and second brother are weighing chili peppers." Wu Wen hurriedly responded, "We're here to pick you up and go home." ”
Lai Mei hurriedly put it in order, went back to the kitchen to say hello and led the children out, it was too choked inside, the children were small, and they couldn't breathe.
"Daddy," Lai Mei hurriedly helped, and then rushed Wu Xue and Wu Li sisters and brothers to rest, "Rest first, let Auntie come, Daddy, you can go back today, why don't you wait for us to go back." "The two old people take the children to pick, the mountains and rivers are far away, and they are tired enough to pick them.
"Come and rest, don't get tired." Wu Mule retorted, "Take you back for the holidays." ”
Lai Mei was stunned and did not answer. Quickly pour the pepper down. It's a pity that Wu's mother, who was happy, didn't notice.
I just heard that the two concubines in the back kitchen had just come to welcome them. Ma Li helped the two families weigh the chili pepper to settle the bill.
and bring them into the hall. "Ouch, my in-laws are here." Shen Mengshi, who was sealing the chili sauce, hurriedly caught up.
The three parents kept greeting each other. "Since you're here, let's stay tomorrow for the festival together, Heng Boy and Yuan Boy can't come back." Shen Meng's warm invitation, anyway, there are more people in the family, and the more people are more lively.
The second parent's family was blinded, and they didn't understand why their son couldn't come back from working in the workshop.
It was too late for the two to stop it, so they had to explain. "They went around together, and now the workshop is short of raw materials, and they are not afraid of your worries, so they dare not tell you." Shen Wu explained.
"It's not just them, it's everyone else."
Shen Mengshi was in a hurry, I didn't know that they hadn't told their families yet, and they were a little embarrassed for a while.
When the father heard this, he understood, and he couldn't help but say, "Young people, if you have the opportunity, you will break through, if I am still young, I will also break through, what is this, young people have the opportunity to go out and see more things." ”
"Isn't this it, but it's a pity that I didn't have enough force when I was young, so I didn't dare, and the man should have to go on a rampage." Father Wu didn't think there was anything, this was also a work requirement.
"That's the case, second daughter-in-law, don't blame your mother for nagging, it's a thousand miles here, and my mother is worried. That's for sure. But you have been able to hide it for him for a while, and if we are not clear on the way from another place today, won't we be even more worried? He is not an unreasonable person. Wu's mother was dissatisfied and explained.
"This in-law is right, let's talk about something, you are also Manniang, this is not an unsightly thing, you also help your second brother hide it." Man's mother also felt that the child had passed this time.
"They know it's wrong, and I've been worried about it for many years, the child is too old, and he always has ideas. Let's relax our minds and let them toss as much as they like. It's good to go out and see what to do. "As a person who has come over, Shen Meng's body has suffered." However, it is good for the child to be happy. ”
"You guys go ahead, let's talk to each other." Shen Mengshi waved his hand to let them leave to do things, there were many things at home, and they couldn't take a break.
drove them out to work, and the relatives were also idle masters, talking eloquently, while keeping their hands busy with Shen Meng's teachings. They only have one morning to be busy, and after they are busy, they have to clean up, tidy up, and wrap zongzi in the afternoon to welcome the Dragon Boat Festival.
In the afternoon, Shen Xinran came back on time, and as soon as he came back, he was surrounded by his cousin and told about his surroundings. Shen Xinran listened patiently. When you're ready, make zongzi with your family.
"It's time to stop." Shen Wu saw that his daughter was running into the mountains every day, and there were shadows in his eyes, so he whispered in distress.
"It's okay, I'm still waiting to eat zongzi." Shen Xinran said that he was very greedy and refused with a smile.
Shen Xinran heard about it a few days ago and only learned that the zongzi wrapped here are very simple, ordinary people are pure millet rice, and if possible, they will be mixed with some sugar, which is commonly said to be divided into three kinds of tasteless, salty, and sugar.
This year, Shen Xinran prepared, dates, red beans, mung beans, shiitake mushrooms and of course pork belly. At this time, peanuts had not yet been introduced, and all they ate were pork boiled oil, or vegetable oil.
Shen Xinran put a thin layer of millet with mushroom leaves, put a spoonful of red beans and wrapped it with a layer of millet rice, and a cone-shaped zongzi appeared in front of everyone. The shape is no longer a single horn shape.
Under Shen Xinran's demonstration, everyone made an appointment to move, and they would wrap zongzi, and while Shen Xinran explained, he demonstrated the diamond-shaped, rectangular, triangular, square, and different shapes and flavors of zongzi surging on the table.
Zimao is responsible for lighting the fire and carrying the rice dumplings. Each in its own position, in an orderly manner. The whole village was filled with a crowd like the Chinese New Year, and children flocked to watch people kill pigs. A pig killing feast is carried out like tea, and every household in the neighboring villages can get a sea bowl. This was notified in advance.
On the barn field, the pigs are killed by boiling water, and the pigs are divided into pork, and the pigs are cleaned up and even put into the water before the end of work. According to Shen Xinran's method, a pot of pig blood is different from a pot of water, so it is convenient to divide food reasonably.
No matter which family, as long as it is a pig killing, it will use the pig water to cook a pot of pig killing banquet to entertain neighbors and friends. Some only have pure pigs in the water, and the pork is not directly wanted, or Shen Xinran came up with the idea of using a basin to add water and salt to form a solidified state. Some will add a few catties of meat to let the neighbors who have not had oil and water for a long time have fun with them.
