Chapter 124: People Who Love to Hold Grudges
Jiang Xiaofen looked at the half basket of plums carefully, nodded and said, "This green plum is very good, even the size is about the same." I'll pickle it when I'm cleaned at night, and I'll ask your brother to buy some rock candy tomorrow and come back, and I'll have to eat it at noon. ”
"Mom, there are ten catties here, how much sour plum sauce can be pickled?"
Although Xiao Yao also wanted to try it, the most important thing was to take it to the town and sell it with fried pork belly.
"After the water is out and rock sugar is added, ten catties of plums are almost the same as ten catties of sauce. When the time comes, find a jar to hold it, and you can take it to the store with fried meat. ”
Jiang Xiaofen knows that her daughter is active and will not just think about eating by herself.
Ten catties of sauce is already a lot in the store at present, and it should be used for a while.
After eating, Zhou Mei washed the dishes on the stove, and Jiang Xiaofen began to be busy.
Xiao Yao ordered the second brother to help, and took a look at it herself.
Dehydration is the use of salt, the first step is not technical, the main thing is to control the amount of salt, too much will be salty too little will be light.
Jiang Xiaofen sprinkled salt into the basin while muttering silently in her mouth, all her work was stolen from her father, her father did not teach her back then, but she wrote down the number of catties of plums with a few spoonfuls of salt.
The next day, Xiao Yonggang went to the town to buy rock candy, and now these don't need tickets, as long as you have money.
Xiao Yao went to the pond to wash clothes in the morning, and then went home to see two aunts in the village probing their brains at the gate of their yard.
"Auntie, what are you doing here? Something? ”
These two are sneaky like thieves.
"Yo, Xiao Yao is back."
The two women saw Xiao Yao's face happy, and when they saw her carrying a washing bucket in her hand, they sighed again, "It's really different, you can wash clothes." ”
"yes, yes......"
Xiao Yao, what the hell are these two people doing with "......".
"Yaoyao, is your mother still in the field?"
How to call their nicknames, Xiao Yao looked at their smirks and his scalp was numb.
"My mom hasn't come back yet." There was no one in their house.
"It doesn't matter if you don't come back, it's like this, I heard that your family is in the noodle business in the town, so we want to ask if you want food?"
It turned out that he came to sell vegetables, Xiao Yao really didn't expect that everyone in the village knew about doing business in the town from home.
It's spreading so fast!
"I guess I want it, but I'll have to wait until my mom comes back."
The cabbage used in their noodle restaurant is a dish from their own backyard, and it uses up more than a dozen catties at a time, and the follow-up development must be bought outside, which is not to be thought about.
However, when dealing with the people in the village, Xiao Yao still let her mother deal with it.
If you buy with someone you know, you can't trade in the market, and there are people in it.
"That's okay, when your mother comes back, you tell her first, and we'll come back later."
The two women left with a smile, Xiao Yao blinked her eyes, these two people looked flattering, they wanted to accept their own dishes.
It's only two cents a pound of cabbage, and the two of them are really hard enough.
At noon, Jiang Xiaofen came back with her two sons and daughter-in-law, and when she was washing her hands under the eaves, Xiao Yao mentioned to her that someone came to sell vegetables.
Jiang Xiaofen shook her head, "I promised Wu Youqing's family when I was in the field in the morning, those people only have to sell vegetables in the back." ”
As soon as she finished speaking, there was a knock at the door of the courtyard, and she still came to ask them if they wanted food, but it was not the people who came in the morning.
"The dish is wanted, but I have already promised the house next door, and yours have to be at the back of the line."
"It's okay, I'll keep those dishes for your family. If it is too much, let me send it to the store for you, and you don't need to exert any effort. ”
In order to sell the order, everyone sharpened their heads, Jiang Xiaofen heard that it could be sent to the town, and she was interested, and she also arranged the order for the two of them, and sent them to the next game, and then decided when she arrived, after all, it is hard to say how much she will use if the end is not discounted.
Now there are cabbages in every house, and few people sell them in the town, but there are them in the city, and the cheapest vegetables are only two cents a catty.
But two cents is also money, and what is usually given to pigs if they can't finish eating can be sold for money now, so why not.
Sent two vegetable sellers, the two women who had looked for Xiao Yao in the morning came again, Jiang Xiaofen had already washed her hands, and took the hot water that her daughter poured for her to drink at the door.
"Vegetables, now my family business must be collected, but I have promised several, I'm afraid I won't be able to line up with yours. I'm sorry, Oe's daughter-in-law, Mankura's daughter-in-law. ”
After Jiang Xiaofen finished speaking, she blew the porcelain jar a few times, but didn't drink it later, and continued to hold her hand to warm her hands.
Although she was still wearing patched clothes, this situation had caught up with the old lady of the landlord's house in the old society.
As soon as the two women heard it, they knew that Jiang Xiaofen was not willing to accept their dishes, and they were embarrassed on their faces, and they regretted it in their hearts.
I have always thought that the Xiao family was poor, did not have a family, usually liked to gossip, and did not have a good relationship, how did I know that there would be a time to ask for others.
"Sister Jiang, the business in your town is so good, how can there be enough food in a few houses. We're not in a hurry, we'll bring it again when the food in front of us is gone. ”
It's not easy to make some money these days, there is no work outside in the winter, and the seeds and fertilizers have to be prepared at their own expense after the village divides the fields.
"Bring it?" Jiang Xiaofen frowned, "Everyone sent it to the town for me, and you brought it over for me to carry it myself, this thing can't be done, and the dishes can't be collected." ”
Jiang Xiaofen drank two sips of hot water to warm up, squinted at the two people in the courtyard and wanted to sneer.
Although no one dares to mess with her in the village, there are not a lot of gossips behind her back, aren't these two people, they used to talk happily, and now they know that they are going to say good things.
Don't let them eat and suffocate, and they can't get back the breath they had back then.
"This?"
The two expected that if they wanted to sell vegetables to Xiao's house, they would definitely be blocked, because Jiang Xiaofen was a person who loved to hold grudges, and everyone knew it.
I didn't expect to be rejected so bluntly.
One of them was embarrassed, because he was usually a bit of a face-loving person, but the other quickly smiled and said, "It's no problem to send it to the town, we are also willing." ”
"Huh!" Jiang Xiaofen pulled the corners of her mouth, and was about to be sarcastic again, when Xiao Yao, who had been next to her, spoke, "Mom, although I have promised several now, the dishes of the two aunts should also be useful." ”
Xiao Yao coughed lightly, and said to the two people in the middle of the courtyard, "Two aunts, it should be almost the same next month, so I will accept your dishes then." ”
Xiao Yao didn't expect that doing business in the town would cause these things, just now she saw her mother angry and happy, and then thought about it, this may be a good time for their family style to change.
