Chapter 1 Raw rice is cooked and ripened
U8 update fastest reading network In the sound of firecrackers, the spring is ushering in the second year after rebirth, the sixteenth year of Qingping.
In this era, there were no firecrackers made of gunpowder, but empty bamboos were burned, but despite this, the children in the streets and alleys still had a lot of fun.
The Chun family has abundant food and clothing this year, and there are too many New Year's goods prepared by their own family and Han Kang to eat. On the morning of the first day of the new year, Chun Qingyang originally came to send ideas to the big room and the second room, but Chun Tu stopped him.
"Grandfather, I was so sick last fall, and no one came to see me. Before the holiday, I heard Uncle Zhou say that he also gave them a New Year's gift, but they didn't return the gift, obviously they didn't want to deal with the two of us, why did you bother to paste it? In case someone makes some money, they'll look at us to get their hands on it. She said.
Hearing this, Chun Qingyang was a little sneering.
The Chun family had three brothers in his generation, a father and a mother's brother, and then the two rooms were out of business, and gradually there were very few contacts. He thought that the two people in the room couldn't raise their heads in front of him, after all, he still had a son, and he was a very good son, so he was embarrassed to take the initiative to step forward, and now he was said by his granddaughter, secretly thinking that relatives were like this, and he couldn't help but look up a little.
Chun Dashan listened to his daughter's words a little heavily beside him, and hurriedly made up for it, "Tu Yu, when you were a child, your eldest grandfather's family and second grandfather's family all came to see you. However, life is tight later, and it is not good for people to come to the door empty-handed, let alone when you are sick, so you can't have resentment in your heart. ”
"There's no resentment." Chun Tu Yu hurriedly explained, "That's it, our family is only well-off, and we are not rich." Although there are many New Year's goods for the New Year this year, most of them are sent by Lord Han and Lord Kang. This year, we gave it to the eldest grandfather and the second grandfather's family, can we return it next year? At that time, I couldn't take it out, and it was not good for people to be resentful. ”
That's human nature. That is, as the saying goes, Dou Mien, Shengmi hatred. Once you don't give it, you don't give it. Kind-hearted people will wonder if your family is in trouble this year, maybe come to see if you can help, and you will be grateful for the previous gift. But people who are not kind will hate you. And in this world, the number of unkind people is considerable.
She is a person who likes to investigate when in doubt, so she inquired a lot about the big house and the second room of the Chun family from Lao Zhoutou a long time ago. The Spring family is a military household. As long as you can produce the land, you can get the fields to cultivate, and it is tax-free, but the ordnance and horses have to be prepared by themselves, and the related expenses must be their own. Chun Dashan has three houses on one shoulder, he is from the Chun family, and it is reasonable that most of the fields should belong to him, but in fact, every year he only symbolically takes back some of the rice and grain grown in the field. It's not enough to chew for a year, and sometimes you have to buy it on the street. As for vegetables or something. They were all self-planted by Chun Qingyang and Lao Zhoutou in the backyard.
Chun Dashan is young and strong, and his body is also tough, and when he is not working in the military government or the yamen, it is completely okay to serve the idea field. But because the two houses had no sons, they were very greedy for money, so they took all the land away, half of the tenants and half of it were given to their daughters and sons-in-law. That's it. I often cry poor. Chun Qingyang and Chun Dashan's father and son are soft-hearted and tender-faced, and they are thinking about their relatives, so they don't care much. Suffered this dark loss.
Fortunately, Chun Dashan was promoted to the lowest-level military attache of Zhichong Mansion, and Chun Qingyang also had something to do in Yamen, and his family life was very good, so he didn't go to compete with the two houses for the interests of the land. After coming and going, they were at ease, forgetting that it was because of Chun Dashan that they got such a large piece of land, and they were afraid that Sanfang would rob them of interests, so they deliberately did not interact.
In fact, they are also in Fanyang, even if they are far away, they are also in a county, so they really don't show up during the New Year's holidays? Every year, Chunqingyang goes to the Qingming Festival and the sixth day of the Lunar New Year, and brings a large bag of things, but when he comes back, his whole body is slippery, and even his good clothes are changed to coarse linen. At first, Chun Dashan also followed, but later they thought that Chun Dashan had passed, and they had to be specially entertained, so Chun Dashan didn't go.
In the final analysis, it is the Chun family's big house and the second room that have encroached on the interests of the third room for a long time, and the kind and family-friendly third room always suffers. It's just that Chun Qingyang and Chun Dashan's father and son are kind, and they don't care about the fact that there is no son in those two rooms. They regard those two rooms as family, but people may not think so, but after all, no one is a fool, and later Chunqingyang's side also faded.
In fact, Chun Tuyu's investigation made it clear that the Chun family's big house and second room were doing better than theirs. Because the field of the Chun family is a high-quality fertile field, and there is a corner of the barren mountain next to it. And the mountain is a place where sand and gravel are produced, and the sideline income is quite considerable. For this reason, the big house and the second room are more afraid of the third room to rob it, right?
"Tu Yu is right, it's that I didn't figure it out." Chun Qingyang immediately understood, nodded and said, "It's cold this winter, so I can save a lot of money by putting all the things I can't eat in the cellar for the time being, and I can eat for a while." ”
"That's it, they've taken advantage of a lot, and they haven't heard a word of thanks, so why are they still rushing to let them rob." After all, Chun Tu couldn't help it and muttered. Now, even Chun Dashan is a little embarrassed.
In fact, she still hasn't said anything: she has not inherited the memory of the owner of this body, so she has no impression of the people in the big house and the second room of the Chun family. It's just that they can have a good life by relying on the three rooms, not only are they not grateful, but they guard against the three rooms like thieves, and they hide and make a fortune in a muffled voice, which shows that the character is definitely not good, and they are extremely thick-skinned. It should be the best of the two families.
Such a person has little contact, and even severed the relationship with relatives.
"Shall we make black rice for lunch?" Chun Tu changed the topic and happily proposed.
She was a northerner in her previous life and in this life, and although she likes pasta, she also likes rice. It's just that in this era, rice was only grown in the south, which was considered a relatively expensive grain, and yellow millet was more common, but it was also delicious if it was done well.
This time, Han Wuxing and Kang Zhengyuan sent a large bag of delicate rice, which can spoil the spring sprouts. It's a pity that people in the Tang Dynasty always like to steam rice with fish, and after the raw rice is cooked into a mature meal, the rice fragrance and fish fragrance are mixed together, which is particularly delicious. However, Chun Tu doesn't like to eat fish, so he can't stand it very much. And the black rice she said is to soak the rice in black with a kind of black tree sap, and then steam it out, not to mention the flavor, I heard that it also has a therapeutic effect.
In previous years, the vegetables at home were Chinese cabbage, radish, mustard greens, and autumn celery. Bracken (water spinach), and small gourds that are not ripe. The people of Datang like to eat steamed tender gourds, and when the spring sprouts just crossed over, they were very curious for a while. This year, there are rare things such as lotus root, bamboo shoots, and Kunlun melons sent by Han Kang and the others, which are much more abundant.
Before, the spring root was particularly expensive, and later I learned that the Tang people especially like the Internet lotus, so there are a large number of ponds and planted in the north and south, so it is not a rare thing.
"You like black rice. Let's eat black rice. "Chun Qingyang spoils Chun Tu for everything," is it good to have a roasted beef? ”
"I also want braised mutton, scrambled eggs with leeks, scrambled bamboo shoots, and cold stumbling cabbage hearts." Chun Tu Yu said several dishes in a row, "Do you want to steam a fish for my father again?" I don't like it, but my dad eats it cutely. Grandfather didn't say that he had a toothache, maybe it was on fire, and the cool stumbling cabbage heart was just right, adding some vinegar and sugar. ”
Chun Qingyang and Chun Dashan listened to the dishes she ordered and took care of the whole family, looked at each other and smiled, and said that this girl did not hurt in vain. I didn't notice that she didn't order Xu's favorite dishes.
In ancient times, cattle were the capital of crops. It is illegal to slaughter at will, but buffaloes can be slaughtered moderately in the south, and the meat is of good quality, but it is especially expensive to transport to the north. Mutton is sold by the Hu people, and the Han people do not raise it. Therefore, in meat, pork and fish are more common, and today's Chun family is dragging the blessings of Han and Kang. Along with beef and mutton, plus birds, and even wild geese, there is a portion of the meat.
Under the Zhang Luo of the spring. The family had a lively meal. In the afternoon, I had to prepare for Chun Dashan and Xu's second year of junior high school to return to their parents' house. Chun Tu didn't expect this custom to exist from Datang, and she was a little unhappy. Because in addition to the clan Niang in the neighboring county, according to modern terms, it is not too far, and the official road from Fanyang to Laishui is only a short section, and the rest has to take the dirt road, which is very difficult to walk, and it takes three days to come and go.
If your mother's home is far away, you don't have to go back in the second year of junior high school, and the Xu family is poor and exquisite. Moreover, she has been very honest these days, and when she made this request, it was difficult for the two generations of male owners of the Chun family to refuse.
It's just that I want to bring a festival when I go back to the door, and I didn't come back until I was young, and she didn't follow Zhang Luo for the New Year's goods at home, so in order not to be too shabby, she naturally had to find a box, picked up a few things sent by Han and Kang, and had to pick up the good ones, full of them, and let her take them back.
As soon as he thought of such a delicious thing to be eaten by Lao Xu, Chun Tu's mouth was sour. But sometimes, even if she was unhappy, she had to pretend to be generous on the surface, so she had to force herself to smile, send her father into the carriage, and go out with gifts.
"According to the slave maid, the wife is just thinking about that idea." Guo'er whispered to Chun Tuyi, "The old lady of the Xu family always says that our family is poor, and we must be shallow-eyed, hmph, their Xu family is." Didn't Miss see it? The dead old woman who sent his wife back that day was about to fall off our family's New Year's goods. The wife insisted on going back to her parents' house, so she wanted to bring these things that she had money and nowhere to buy to her parents' house to taste. ”
"Forget it, even if it's a face for my father." Chun Tu sighed, and he should have persuaded himself.
She didn't know what Old Xu would think when she saw this, but she definitely didn't expect that the dead woman would arrive with the carriage two days later, saying that she was coming to her in-laws to pay New Year's greetings. accompanied by Xu's father, a tall and thin middle-aged man with a white face and beard, who thought he was a eunuch at first glance.
Chun Tu couldn't help but be vigilant.
As the saying goes, if you don't have anything to do, you can't go to the Three Treasures Palace, what is this old Xu family holding back? Last time, because she missed the incident of beating Chun Tu, Chun Dashan did not allow her to come to the door, but she followed this time. It can be seen that the thickness of the skin is no worse than the big house and the second room of the Chun family.

Haha, today I'm heading the party. The table hits me, because this chapter is a warm life chapter, and I keep talking about eating, so I can't call the chapter "eating", right? I had to use black rice.
And looking at the data in the background, I saw a lot of skipping orders. Anyway, 66 This book is not flooded at all, and there are clues in the chapters, so why do you want to jump for Mao? What about skipping? What about skipping? It's only a few cents for a chapter, what about ordering it for Mao? Cup Sang asked the sky speechlessly.
