Su Tong was a little embarrassed, and took out his four hundred and eighty taels of silver and hurriedly handed it over: "Daughter-in-law, I didn't want to give it to you before, but I was afraid that you wouldn't be able to hide things on your face and expose them again." In fact, our family has never been short of silver, and there has been no shortage since the green fox came back. There's still a lot I haven't told you yet, and I'll tell you slowly. ”

Yue'er snorted and took the silver ticket and put it away: "I don't want to know if I want to know, now I want to know how you spent all the silver when you were in the capital in the past, how can you come back?" ”

Su Tong smiled: "Daughter-in-law, when we go back to the capital, you will go to the Huaishui East Building and rob them, and my silver will almost come back." ”

The teeth of hatred itched at the mention of this Yue'er, and when he returned his hand, he grabbed Su Zhi's ear: "Do you say you have anything to do with that Yu'er?" ”

Su Tong said very aggrievedly: "Daughter-in-law, can you still not know if there is anything, I didn't understand anything when we got married." ”

As a result, he was glared at by his daughter-in-law fiercely, but that's all.

It is said that she misses her relatives every festive season, but Yue'er has no relatives to miss except for Huizhi's mother and son. But it was this mother and son who made her feel that her current happy days were against their mother and son.

Su Tong is no exception to think of his mother, but he will suppress his emotions in his heart and not show it.

Seeing that Yue'er was sullen all day, he tried to make her happy.

At this time, he came in with a handful of seeds, put them on the small table in front of Yue'er, and said, "Daughter-in-law, I asked the caravan to bring back the beet seeds, and next year we will have more varieties, and we can also build a sugar workshop." ”

"Okay, we have sugar and wine, it would be better if there was more salt tea, but it's a pity that those two things are in the hands of the imperial court."

"This place is not suitable for growing tea, and salt is not good, but we can have a variety of food, and we will not worry about it in the future."

Yue'er only nodded and didn't say anything more, Su Tong said again: "I found the old man Yang Er, he has five big acres, one is fifteen acres, and this time there are seventy-five acres of dry land." ”

Yue'er nodded again, and Su Zhi was planning her own days.

He planned to use the six acres of dry land in his house to raise sheep, roe deer, and some pigs, chickens, ducks and geese. There are now two rabbits at home, and it would be better to buy them and bring them up the mountain to catch them, and get more than a dozen pairs of breeding rabbits.

Rabbits are born in a litter a month, a litter of two to eight ranges, just take one of the two rabbits a month to add five rabbits, a year this pair of sixty rabbits born.

Ten pairs of breeding rabbits will harvest 600 baby rabbits, but I am afraid that the whole farm will be full of rabbits all year round.

Even if the family eats a rabbit every day, it can't be eaten for a year, and the breeding rabbits are still alive. If you update it and add young breeding rabbits, you can sell them in large quantities.

Rabbit fur is not as valuable, but it is also an income.

When Yue'er heard this, she immediately asked: "Then it's better to raise those fur valuable things, anyway, if you have land in your hands, it won't take much silver to build a house." ”

Su Tong nodded: "I also have this intention, such as sables and raccoon dogs and foxes, especially silver foxes and snow foxes." There are also deer, which can be cut around the Dragon Boat Festival. The old ginseng you ate last time, I also want to cultivate some, you can circle a piece of mountain land and use it specifically to raise ginseng. Even in the mountains of your own circle, those wild things can be kept there. ”

Yue'er became happy at this time, held Su Zhi's hand, and said with a sparkling eye: "Brother Zhi, you are simply good at making money, just this Dabei Mountain, let you quickly calculate the capital." ”

Su Tong raised his eyebrows proudly: "This is not the end, next year I plan to open more paddy fields and circle back all the places where this generation can grow rice." Our rice is sold at least twice as much as in other places. In the future, you don't have to go to the caravan and ask them to buy it, just tell them to come and collect it. When the backyard is built next year, the front yard will be used to receive caravans. ”

finally brought up Yue'er's spirit, and Su Zhi took her to plan all day long. After coming back, the two had to talk together for a long time, and the children's literacy class stopped after the twenty-third day of the lunar month.

But the kung fu can't be stopped, and Yue'er's hasn't stopped, even if the moon comes, she is persistent.

During the Chinese New Year, the lanterns are specially put up in the courtyard, and a pair of red lanterns at the gate are particularly festive when they shine on the snow and are blown around by the wind.

I bought some firecrackers and fireworks, and waited for the Chinese New Year's Eve dinner to go out, and the children and adults were happy.

A few years ago, the men of the whole family followed the fishermen in the village to fish, and when they came back, they froze a lot. At the same time, Su Tong also took his family to open some ice and came back, repairing the house in the summer and building an ice cellar on the side of the room number fenced in the backyard.

The ice that comes back from the river is not for eating, this is for cooling down in the summer. The family has not been less frozen and stored in the cellar this winter, which is what is kept for food.

I also deliberately used hawthorn and mountain clove fruit, as well as mung bean paste and red bean paste to freeze some, which added a lot of honey, and it must be very refreshing to eat in summer.

On the twenty-ninth day of the lunar month, the women cooked together, fried a small jar of oil fruits, and a small jar of meatballs and put them in the barn and froze.

The pig was killed before the New Year, and on the twenty-sixth day of the lunar month, he took back some meat to cook, and then he could cut two plates every day and put them in the pot and steam them again, dipping them in garlic and soy sauce to eat.

Killed another sheep and prepared dumplings filled with mutton and garlic for Chinese New Year's Eve.

Boil a large pot of pork rind jelly, this can not be frozen, it is best to put it in a cool and not frozen place.

There were eight pigs' trotters when he killed the pigs, and Su Tong said that it was too little, so he bought some back. When the pork is boiled together, only green onions, ginger and rice wine are added to the pot, and even salt is not added.

There are very few greens, and at this time there are turnips, cabbage, carrots and bean sprouts that grow on their own. The cold dish for the Chinese New Year's Eve dinner was made by Sister-in-law Wang, which was mixed raw fish eaten by fishermen.

This dish does not taste the taste of sashimi, and the main thing is to use thick grass carp, which is called grass root here.

The treatment method of the fish is to remove the scales and internal organs and cut a knife below the head, and then the skin of the fish is separated from the meat with a knife, and then a chopstick is stretched into it, and the skin and meat are separated little by little.

After the skin of the fish is removed, fry it in a pan over low heat until crispy and set aside.

The fish is then cut off and sliced, as if it were boiled fish, then shredded and soaked in the highest concentration vinegar.

At this time, it is time to prepare the ingredients, the ingredients are shredded potatoes and cabbage, and if there are cucumbers in summer, cut some shredded cucumbers and coriander.

Blanch the shredded potatoes, blanch them in cold water, shred the cabbage, mince the garlic, and add some chili oil and sesame oil. Soak the shredded raw fish in vinegar for about half an hour, then you can mix it with the ingredients, put an appropriate amount of salt, and master it according to your taste.

If it is not sour after mixing, put some vinegar, which must be sour and spicy to be refreshing. Put the fried fish skin last, cut it into groups and stir it in.

The remaining fish heads and bones can be boiled in soup with tofu and salt and pepper before drinking.
