The old man thought about it again and again, went into the house and wrote a letter, asking his son to see if what Mu Xiu said was true, if he could really sell something, the old man was happy, after all, he had the opportunity to make money, and he could start from scratch in what he loved, why not try it.

Mu Xiu finished the cart, but when she walked to the road, she met Aunt Xiong, as soon as Aunt Xiong saw Mu Xiu, she quickly stretched out her hand to greet her and said, "Xiu!" How are you here! ”

Mu Xiu replied with a smile: "Come out and see if there are any wild vegetables that can be eaten." ”

Aunt Xiong is a soft-hearted person, and when she heard Mu Xiu say this, she suddenly felt a little uncomfortable in her heart.

"Xiu, go, go to the eldest mother's house, the eldest lady has planted a lot of cabbage and radish this year, and she can't eat it all, go to the eldest lady to get some back." Aunt Xiong said to Mu Xiu.

It is now the end of November, and the cabbage and radish are the time of harvest, when every household has their own land to grow vegetables, so most of the villagers in the village are not worried about eating vegetables, only some are the elderly and children in the family, so the sweet potatoes and potatoes in the self-reserved land will always be not enough to eat.

Mu Xiu wanted to excuse herself, but after thinking about it, she could try to make some kimchi for these cabbages, after all, there are not many kimchi sold in the space this time, and now it is the cabbage that is in season, you can make more, and the money can be earned a little more!

Mu Xiu followed Aunt Xiong to her home in this way, after Aunt Xiong's family separated, the old couple lived with the eldest son's family, and when Aunt Xiong took Mu Xiu back, she happened to meet Aunt Xiong's eldest daughter-in-law, Zhao Xiaoling, who was sitting in the yard to tidy up these dug cabbage.

Aunt Xiong stepped forward and took two cabbages and handed them to Mu Xiu, and said enthusiastically: "Xiu, you take it to eat first, it's not enough to come back, there are a lot of them at home." ”

As soon as Aunt Xiong's words fell, Zhao Xiaoling coughed heavily, Mu Xiu glanced at Zhao Xiaoling, and saw that Zhao Xiaoling's face was not very good-looking.

The cabbage grown by herself was given away for nothing, Zhao Xiaoling still felt a little distressed when she saw it, this was all caused by the poverty of the family, even if something could not be eaten in the end and hidden to be bad, it could not be said that it was wasted by outsiders.

Mu Xiu originally planned to buy these cabbages, but when she saw that Aunt Xiong was a little embarrassed, she immediately raised her voice and said with a smile: "Aunt Xiong, this little cabbage is not enough." ”

Aunt Xiong didn't expect Mu Xiu to say this suddenly, she was stunned, and Zhao Xiaoling threw the cabbage in her hand to the ground, and walked towards Mu Xiu violently, wanting to take away the two cabbages she was holding in her hand again.

As a result, Mu Xiu took out a dollar from her pocket and handed it to Zhao Xiaoling, who walked to her.

"Aunt Zhao, my family didn't grow vegetables this year, so I told Aunt Xiong to come to your house to buy some, do you think 1 yuan and 20 catties will become it?"

Zhao Xiaoling was stunned for a moment, she reached out and took the money, and a smile appeared on her originally calm face.

"Xiu, if you take back the money, it's just some cabbage." Aunt Xiong hurriedly pushed it, but Zhao Xiaoling pulled Aunt Xiong, and then put the money in her pocket.

"Yes, it's not easy for you to serve these dishes." Mu Xiu's face understood.

Zhao Xiaoling, who got the money, looked at Mu Xiu at the moment, how pleasing to the eye, she took the two cabbages in Mu Xiu's hand, turned around and went to take 4 more cabbages, tied them together with hemp rope, and then handed them to Mu Xiu.

"Xiu, so you can take some."

"Thank you, Aunt Zhao." Mu Xiu thanked Zhao Xiaoling obediently, and Zhao Xiaoling nodded to Mu Xiu with a smile.

"It's too heavy, I'll send you." Aunt Xiong looked at the pile of cabbage, and then at Mu Xiu's thin body, and felt very sorry in her heart.

"By the way, Aunt Xiong, you still have radishes planted at home." Mu Xiu asked tentatively.

"Yes, how many turnips do you want, I'll pluck them for you now." Zhao Xiaoling immediately came to her senses, stood up and walked to the vegetable field.

In the end, Mu Xiu bought 20 catties of radishes from Aunt Xiong's house at a price of 1 yuan and 20 catties, so many things, Aunt Xiong pushed the cart and insisted on sending Mu Xiu back.

"Xiu, you take this money, it was the eldest lady who said that it would give you food, and your family is in this situation...... The eldest lady really didn't expect Xiaoling to be at home. On the way back to send Mu Xiu, Aunt Xiong took out a handkerchief from her arms, counted it from the mile, counted out 2 yuan and handed it to Mu Xiu.

"Aunt Xiong, I don't want it, you didn't sell these to me, I have to buy them elsewhere, my father went out to help people make furniture, and he left the money at home." Mu Xiu hurriedly reached out and pushed it away.

"Really?"

"Really, otherwise how would I be rich." Mu Xiu said with a smile.

"That's good, that's good, your father's craftsmanship has nothing to say, and he is willing to endure hardships, and your life will definitely get better in the future." After Aunt Xiong heard Mu Xiu's words, she felt a lot better, and she said with a relieved face.

"Yes, the policy will get better and better in the future, and our life will get better and better, maybe in another ten or twenty years, we will be tired of eating meat."

"How can I get tired of eating this meat, there is really a day when I can't get tired of eating it." Aunt Xiong smiled and shook her head, as if she didn't believe what Mu Xiu said.

Mu Xiu smiled and said nothing, these will soon become a reality, and by that time, the world will be full of people who want to lose weight......

After Aunt Xiong said that Mu Xiu was sent home, she left, Zhou Shuilian and Mu Xiaocao looked at the cabbage radish on the ground, and they were puzzled.

"Xiu, what's going on with these dishes?" Zhou Shuilian asked strangely.

"I bought it." Mu Xiu said as he spread the cabbage radish in the yard.

"What are you buying these vegetables for?" Mu Xiaocao also asked.

"It's used to make pickles, bamboo shoots are no longer available now, and these radishes and cabbage can also be made." Mu Xiu explained to the two of them.

"Who can't make dried radish, I'll do it, can anyone buy it?" Mu Xiaocao said in disbelief.

"What I do is different from others, sister, you wait and see." Mu Xiu has only eaten sour bamboo shoots for them, and the rest has not been taken out yet.

"If you can, then you can do it, I'll see how you do it differently." Mu Xiaocao muttered a few words.

After a busy day, the sky gradually darkened, and several people washed and rested.

Early the next morning, Zhou Shuilian took Mu Xiaocao to water in the field, and Mu Xiu took Li Pandi and Mu Xiaohua to make pickles at home.

Li Pandi helped Mu Xiu peel off the outer layer of the cabbage, wash it, and evenly smear it with salt inside and out, and then went to take care of Mu Xiaohua.

Mu Xiu waited for a while, squeezed out the water of the cabbage, took out ginger, garlic, apples, and pears from the space and chopped them into minced pieces, took out the chili noodles, salt, and monosodium glutamate, added the boiled water that had been boiled and cooled for a long time, mixed the chili noodles, salt, and monosodium glutamate, and then poured the ginger, garlic, apples, and pears in front into the chili noodles, stirred well, and began the main kimchi.
