Chapter 19: A Dozen
The fish is sauerkraut fish roasted by Aunt Ying, which makes Lin Zifu have a great appetite, and she has eaten half full for the past few days, and about three catties of big fish made her and Aunt Ying finally have a full meal.
What makes Lin Zifu very pleased is that in this dynasty, which has never been in history, has many similarities in eating habits like modern times, such as sauerkraut, and people in this era have already known how to use jars to pickle vegetables.
Even chili peppers are available, but few people in the village eat them, and there are relatively few people who grow them.
She also pondered that after the beginning of spring, she would buy some seeds and come back to plant a lot of peppers, so that she could make her own watercress peppers.
Wu Caihua came over when it was dark, and when she came, Lin Zifu and Aunt Ying were just about to rest.
There was something wrong with a Wu Caihua, so after beckoning Wu Caihua into the house, he asked Wu Caihua about her purpose.
Wu Caihua smiled on her face, she was in a good mood, she could be said to have a face and a face today, and these were all brought by Lin Zifu: "Zifu, I went to ask the people in the village who are willing to follow us to collect medicine, there are more than a dozen of them." ”
Even Lin Zifu didn't expect this result, she looked at Wu Caihua in surprise and said, "There are more than a dozen?" ”
In fact, the more people she makes, the more money she makes, but she always feels that if there are more people, there will be more troubles at that time, and maybe some people will not have enough hearts.
Wu Caihua nodded, patted her chest and said, "I can guarantee this, these people are very talkative, and they will definitely not provoke right and wrong." ”
Lin Zifu smiled: "I hope, my aunt also knows that I don't know many people here, so I'm worried that when the time comes, I will provoke people who can't be provoked and bring a lot of trouble to myself." ”
This is the truth, if it weren't for Wu Caihua meeting and just wanting to call someone, she really didn't want to have too deep contact with the people in the village.
Since Wu Caihua patted her chest and promised, then this matter is like this.
"Mai Dong, you all know each other, if you can, you can take them to dig Mai Dong and wild chrysanthemums, after Mai Dong digs, if you don't dislike the trouble, you can plant it back, and we can dig it again next year."
Wu Caihua also agreed: "When the time comes, I will ask everyone to plant it back, or Zifu thinks long-term." ”
Sending Wu Caihua away, Aunt Ying shook her head and was not optimistic about this matter.
"I always feel that when there are more people, there are more things."
Lin Zifu smiled bitterly, thinking the same as Aunt Ying: "I think the same way, but what can I do, I promised people how to do it, I can't tell Wu Caihua now that there are not so many people, so she is very embarrassed and will hold a grudge against us." ”
Today's morning was a little different from the past, the morning in the village used to be quiet, but today it was very noisy.
Lin Zifu knew that the people in the village were going to go up the mountain to dig medicine, so they all got up early.
Aunt Liao and Aunt Guixiang came, and the two decided to dig medicine with Lin Zifu.
Aunt Ying had already cleaned up, and Aunt Liao and Aunt Guixiang had brought Mai Dong to dry the surface moisture.
Aunt Liao also brought a weight, Aunt Liao actually dug five and a half catties yesterday, and Aunt Guixiang dug five catties and eight taels, which happened to be in the expectations of the two.
Lin Zifu took the paper and found a piece of carbon to remember the weight, and Aunt Liao and Aunt Guixiang were very happy.
"Today, the aunts continue to work hard and strive to dig more." Lin Zifu encouraged, and at the same time thought in her heart how much she could sell if it was dried.
The wheat was moved to the roof of the house to dry, the ladder was placed in the house, and the four of them carried the hoe up the mountain together.
Walking into the bamboo forest, Aunt Liao said, "Zifu, how many people did Wu Caihua introduce to you?" ”
"She said there were more than a dozen, and I was worried, so many people would definitely make trouble." Lin Zifu didn't hide her thoughts, and whispered to Aunt Liao.
Now it was Aunt Liao's turn and Aunt Guixiang was helpless.
The two sighed and were a little worried.
Aunt Guixiang was dissatisfied: "This Wu Caihua gave her face, didn't she find so many people to come, and she didn't look at how difficult some women in the village were." ”
She knows the women in the village, but not everyone is kind, and everyone can understand your goodness.
Lin Zifu was worried when she thought of this: "I thought about a way for a long time last night, and finally decided to leave it like this for the time being, if someone makes trouble, just don't accept it." ”
What can I do now! Since Wu Caihua has already shouted at everyone, she can only take one step at a time.
Aunt Liao patted Lin Zifu on the shoulder and comforted: "Don't worry, no one dares to make trouble casually, and I and your Aunt Guixiang are not decorations, anyway, I told Wu Caihua all the ugly things, those people really dare to make trouble, and we will not be polite when the time comes." ”
This time I changed places to go, and the few forests I walked before have been dug up, and Aunt Liao said that there is a lot of one place.
The four of them were walking in front of them, and there was a shout behind them.
"Auntie, wait for me." He Yunhu ran over with a hoe with a smile.
Tian Guixiang already knew about Aunt Liao going to look for He Yunhu last night, and she had a good impression of He Yunhu, and it was good to be able to dig herbs together.
"Yunhu, are you ready for lunch food?" Aunt Guixiang asked with a smile.
He Yunhu pointed to the bow and arrow in the back basket and said, "Later, I will hunt a hare, we will roast and eat in the forest at noon, and I will also prepare the nest head." ”
He was in a good mood, he wanted to ask if he could dig with Lin Zifu when he saw Lin Zifu digging herbs that day, but he was not familiar with Lin Zifu, so he couldn't take the liberty of asking questions when he met.
Unexpectedly, Aunt Liao came to him last night and asked him to dig herbs with him.
This is a good thing, the family needs money everywhere, and it is a little bit to be able to earn a little, not to mention that Aunt Liao said that she earned 20 yuan yesterday, and he has to pick how many deni firewood to sell so much.
looked at Lin Zifu gratefully and said, "Zifu, I'll catch fish for you when you make money." ”
Lin Zifu was amused by He Yunhu, covered her mouth and smiled: "Brother Yunhu, don't be naughty, if you want to thank me, just dig herbs, and in the near future, you can dig some wheat and pick some wild chrysanthemums, and now there are so many people in the village digging herbs, if you are slow, you can't dig much." ”
Aunt Liao also laughed: "No, you can't dig herbs if you want to dig in winter, and you kid is still thinking about catching hares for us." ”
He Yunhu scratched his head a little embarrassed, embarrassed.
"Don't I want everyone to eat some meat?"
He knows very well what the living conditions of the people in the village are, Aunt Liao and Tian Guixiang are the few people in the village who are good to him.
I followed Aunt Liao to another grove, which is close to the creek where Mai Dong grows a lot.
He Yunhu moved quickly, found a place far away from Lin Zifu and them, and began to dig herbs.
Lin Zifu and Aunt Ying are also fast, time is money, she and Aunt Ying only dug ten catties yesterday, which is much worse than the day before yesterday, so this time they are extra hard.
