Chapter 52 The younger brother and sister ask for melons and twenty-five texts
In the afternoon, Qiu Se didn't let Sanya cook the canned food again, so Ding Dafu pushed out the remaining canned food to sell, and asked him to go to the teahouse to get the remaining barrels back, and then took Wu and Sanya to start brewing.
Making wine is very simple, first pick the ripe mountain grapes one by one, then crush them and put them in the wine jar, a layer of grapes and a layer of sugar, after the autumn color is estimated, about seven or eight catties, then pour all the remaining white sugar into the wine jar, and begin to seal the altar.
"Big girl, there's another pot here!" Wu had been watching the autumn wine from the side, and hurriedly reminded her when he saw that she had left a small pot.
"That's for you." As she spoke, she covered the mouth of the altar with muslin and covered it with a thick layer of dirt cloth.
Wu was happy to be remembered, but he said: "It's all for money, why do you want me to eat it?" Now the days are good, and when you are pregnant with your sister, you don't have this treatment. ”
"Mother, if the eldest sister respects you, you will eat!" Sanya said and pinched a grape and threw it into her mouth, and then spit it out again, "Phew, it's so sour!" ”
Wu scolded with a smile, "You deserve it, you gluttonous girl." But he still poured warm water and rinsed his little daughter's mouth.
"Pregnant women should eat more fruits to supplement vitamins, which is good for the fetus." Qiu Se covered the lid of the wine jar and asked Wu, "Mother, is there yellow mud at home?" ”
"Yes, there are a few pieces of adobe behind the firewood house that are made of yellow mud, and they are a little rotten by the rain."
"I'll go get some." Qiu Se was going to fetch the yellow mud to seal the altar, but she didn't want to start with two heads as soon as she lifted the curtain and startled her.
After a closer look, it turned out to be Hongyu and Jinbao, and the two didn't want the autumn colors to come out suddenly, scratching their heads and smirking at her.
"What are you two doing here? Scary? Autumn glared at them angrily.
Jinbao ignored the autumn color, still poked his head into the room, and after seeing the watermelon on the kang table, his eyes lit up, and he shouted, "I want to eat melon!" "I was going to go into the house to get it, but I didn't want to be pushed out by Sanya.
"Go out, don't rob our watermelons, my father has taken more than half of the watermelons to you and come to grab them, shameless, I'm sorry!" Sanya blocked the door and crossed her waist and said to Qiu Se: "Eldest sister, if you don't give them food, they don't give us any good food." "Sanya has her own careful thoughts, the watermelon is here with the eldest sister, she can still eat one or two pieces, if she gives Jinbao, then she doesn't even want to see the watermelon skin.
"Get out of here, bitch, believe it or not, I'll let your milk beat you!" Jinbao did not show weakness, directly confronted Sanya, and also moved out Mrs. Ding to be a backup.
Hongyu's face turned red after being scolded, but she still looked at the watermelon in the room reluctantly, and twisted her fingers embarrassedly and begged Qiu Se to say, "Sister, are you going to take yellow mud?" I'll get it for you, will you give me a watermelon to taste? Just now the uncle sent it, and the grandmother said that it was only for my father and my father's third uncle Jinbao to eat. ”
"Dead girl, get out of the way!" Jinbao got angry and pushed Sanya who was blocking the door.
"If you don't give, if you don't give, you don't give!" Sanya's eyes widened, trying her best to defend the watermelon that didn't belong to her.
"Sanya, you stop!" Wu couldn't sit still, and walked behind Qiu Se to persuade her, "Big girl, you ......"
Qiu Se didn't wait for Wu to finish speaking, and directly shouted Sanya and Jinbao, who were scuffling together, "You two stop me, or no one will eat watermelon." ”
As soon as he heard that there was a watermelon to eat, Jinbao stopped decisively and looked at the autumn colors menacingly, "Why don't you hurry up and bring it to me, be careful that I beat you." Ruby's eyes lit up.
"Big sister!" Sanya stomped her feet and pouted dissatisfiedly.
Qiu Se frowned, this Jinbao is really not what he is used to, and he made a straight face at him, "You go and get me a handful of yellow mud!" ”
Jinbao's neck stalked, "I'm not going!" ”
"Then you don't want to eat watermelon? If you don't go, you won't eat! "Autumn threatens him.
Jinbao's eyes stared hard at the autumn color, and then looked at the watermelon on the table through the gap, and finally turned around and went to the back of the firewood room.
"Come, Ruby, come in." Qiushi turned sideways to let Hongyu enter the house, and when Sanya saw this, she ran back to her house in a rage.
"Big girl, you can greet Jinbao and them. Hongyu, if you have time, you can also go to the eldest mother's house to play! Wu also poured a place for a few children.
Hongyu didn't enter the house, but looked into the courtyard and asked Qiushi, "Sister, can you also call Hongxing?" She didn't eat either! ”
Qiu Se stretched out her head to look out, and saw Hongxing standing at the door of the west wing and looking this way, so she nodded, "You call her over!" "It's just a few children, and the autumn colors are not so stingy that they can't even give up a tooth of watermelon.
Hongyu was happy, and stood at the door and shouted at Hongxing, "Hongxing, come here, the eldest sister promised to give you a green melon to eat!" ”
"Phew, who's rare! It's like I want her. Hongxing's face sank, looked left and right, and turned back to the house.
"Hey, red apricot, red apricot!" Hongyu shouted twice, wanting to find her, but she couldn't bear the watermelon behind her.
"Alright, you can bring her back a tooth in a moment." Qiu Se somewhat understood Hongxing's thoughts, and was waiting for herself to rush to send her over instead of her coming over to ask for it! It's like the bag of pastries I brought with me when I first returned to Ding's house.
At this time, Jinbao ran back, still holding a pile of yellow mud in both hands.
"Look, I'll give you the loess and mud directly!" Jinbao stretched out his arms forward, and smiled as if he were meritorious.
Qiu Se took the wooden basin to pick it up, and didn't want Jinbao to twist his body, and threw his two arms to the side.
"You handed me the watermelon before you gave it to you!" Jinbao blinked and began to talk about the conditions.
"Are you still afraid that I won't be able to rely on your watermelon?!" Autumn Color was a little funny, and turned around to cut a tooth-sized watermelon for him and brought it.
Seeing this, Jinbao threw the mud on his hand into the basin, and regardless of whether his hands were clean or not, he grabbed the watermelon and ran to the yard.
The autumn colors are a little strange, and there are watermelons on the table, why isn't he guarding here! Greeted Hongyu on the side, "Come, you eat watermelon too." ”
Hongyu carefully took the watermelon and looked at the autumn colors to get the yellow mud paste jar and couldn't help asking, "Sister, don't you eat it?" ”
"I've eaten it, you can eat it!" Qiu Se said while sticking to the mud: "I didn't expect Jinbao to be very careful in his work, and he also knew that bringing back the loess and mud was still hot water!" ”
"Oh." Hongyu was only concerned about eating, and she didn't pay attention to what Autumn Color was talking about.
Finally finished pasting the jar, and the mud was gone, Qiu Se stood up and wiped the sweat on his forehead with his sleeve, "Hey, I'm tired, huh?" Qiu Se was stunned for a moment, put her hand in front of her nose and sniffed it carefully, in addition to the fishy smell of the earth, it seemed to be mixed with a smell of urine, she didn't give up and sniffed it again, there was still something wrong.
"Aha!" Jinbao's burst of laughter came from outside the door, and I saw him holding the door frame with one hand, and pointing at Qiu Se with the other hand with the half-eaten watermelon peel and smiling at Qiu Se, "That, that's what I urinated with, and you still send it to your mouth!" Hahaha! ”
Qiu Se only felt as if something was about to come out of his stomach, his face turned green, and he yelled, "Ding Jinbao!" "Lift your leg and go and get him.
Where is Jinbao willing to let Autumn Color catch, and grimaces at her while running, "Come on, come on, stinky girl who loves to smell urine!" ”
"I'm going to have to smash your ass!" Qiu's foot strength has been exercised for more than a month, and chasing him is really a piece of cake.
"Ah, Milk, come and save me!" Seeing that he was about to be caught, Jinbao shouted anxiously and threw half of the watermelon rind over.
Autumn color was unprepared and was smashed, wiped the water stains on her face with her sleeve, and smelled the smell of urine in her nose, at this time she really wanted to hang Jinbao up and beat her, it was so annoying!
"Who dares to bully my good grandson!" Mrs. Ding came out with a broom, glaring at the autumn colors, "Cheap girl, you dare to hit Jinbao, believe it or not, I will pick your skin!"
Jin Bao squeaked and slipped behind Mrs. Ding and grimaced at Qiushi.
Zhao also rushed out, "Big girl, no matter what, you are the eldest sister, why are you not at all?" ”
Ding Ergu also said: "That's it, you still go and coax Jinbao!" ”
Zhang looked at Hongyu, who was eating watermelon at the door opposite, and didn't say anything else, but sighed: "The eldest girl can make money to buy watermelon, what good idea do you have to think of the second aunt!" ”
Autumn looked at these people hatefully and said nothing, and turned back to her room.
"Eldest sister, I'll go back and eat, I'll bring this back to Hongxing!" Hongyu saw that Qiu's face was heavy, so she hurriedly took the watermelon and ran away.
"Big girl, are you okay?" Wu asked with some concern.
Autumn sighed, "I'm fine, you can go back." With that, he began to scoop water and wash his hands.
Seeing this, Wu sighed lightly and went back to his house.
Autumn color changed the water five times and felt a smell on the hand, sat on the kang and felt funny for a while, he lived two lifetimes, so much older than Jinbao, today he is still chasing him like a child all over the yard, is it possible that adults have traveled back to ancient times, and their minds have also deteriorated? But it did feel quite disgusting, and this feeling lasted until the next day when I was cutting melons in the teahouse.
Xu was to avoid suspicion, Qing Niang asked Granny Cai to prepare kitchen knives and other things in the teahouse in front, but she didn't come over, Ai Laohu came over early.
Ding Dafu and Gazi felt quite restrained when they saw Ai Laohu, Ding Dafu was worried because of the last oolong incident, and Gazi was the natural fear of the people when they saw the officials. Ai Laohu ignored them, but looked at the haystacks and bamboo sticks prepared on the side with great interest.
"Hey, don't mess around, it's time to lose your grip for a while." Qiu Se saw Ai Laohu poking at the haystack with a bamboo stick, and couldn't help but call him.
Ai Laohu threw the bamboo stick in his hand and asked with a smile: "Isn't this something used to sell sugar gourds?" Are you going to use it to sell watermelons? ”
"Ahh Autumn Color replied casually, and counted intently how many toothed watermelons she had cut.
"And how much are you going to sell it for?" Ai Laohu was bored and wanted to get the tooth watermelon to eat, but he didn't want to be slapped away by the autumn color.
"You!" Ai Laohu wanted to get angry, but when he saw the autumn color, he didn't see that he was concentrating on the number and couldn't make a sound.
Ding Dafu glanced at the two, sighed lightly, and turned his gaze to the side.
"Well, I cut eighty teeth for a watermelon, and one tooth sells for twenty-five yuan, and one hundred yuan for five teeth. Come on, let's start planting watermelons. After the autumn color finished calculating the account and quoted the selling price, he beckoned a few people to work.
