The brother and sister were doing it by the river, one eye staring at the duck and the other eye on the net.

Shen Pomegranate began to ponder as soon as he was free, it should be enough to eat and drink in this house, but it is not enough to make money, although pigs and ducks can be sold for money, they have to wait until they are raised, and the ducks can be fattened up at the end of this year, but the pigs are estimated to have to be raised until next year.

"Brother, is there a lot of business in the county?" Shen Shiliu asked Shen Shu.

"Many, there are a lot of vendors on weekdays, and there are even more people rushing to the big market on the fifteenth day of the new year!" After Shen Shu answered, he asked, "If you want to go, my brother will take you there."

！ ”

"Okay, let's go tomorrow, I'll see how they make money!" Shen Shiliu said.

"You want to buy and sell?" Shen Shu was surprised, his sister was really getting more and more capable, and now she still wanted to do business.

"Well, the food in the fields is enough to feed and clothe at most, and if our family wants to get rich, we have to do business! When we have saved enough money, our family can afford the bride price, and my brother can marry a good daughter-in-law! Shen Shiliu said that even if she really can't get married in the future, her future sister-in-law will not dislike her if she can make money.

When Shen Shu heard this, his heart sank: "Sister, don't worry, my brother will definitely take care of you, no matter whether our family has money or not, no matter which family's daughter is good, if it is not good for you, my brother doesn't want it!" ”

Shen Shimei was moved, Shen Shu just had this heart, she couldn't really be a burden, even if Shen Shu and her sister-in-law didn't dislike her, she wouldn't have the face to eat and not work!

Shen Shu saw that the time was almost up, so he took back the net, and there was a black guy in the fish and shrimp in the net.

"It's this old turtle again!" Shen Shu took out the old turtle as he spoke, and was about to throw it back into the river.

"Hey, don't throw it!" Shen Shimei's fat body was also flexible at this time, and he hurriedly copied the old turtle back.

Shen Shu was puzzled and asked, "What do you want this thing for, you can't eat it!" ”

"Can't eat it? Bite? Shen Pomegranate wondered, when can't this thing be eaten?

Shen Shu frowned: "This thing smells too earthy, our mother used to boil soup, and the pot was almost thrown away, did you forget?" ”

Shen pomegranate really forgot, but it smells earthy because it can't be done, it's not done, this thing is so supplemented, it would be a pity if you throw it away!

"It's okay, I'll find a way to do it, make sure it's not dirty!" Shen Shiliu patted his chest and promised.

Shen Shu saw that his sister had an idea, so he didn't stop it, poured all the fish and shrimp in the net into the bucket, and went back to catch the ducks.

Shen Pomegranate is happy, this Wang Ba has hundreds of dollars in the supermarket, and the people in this place really don't know the goods!

The ducks were all ashore when they were full, and they were wet and shaking their half-yellow feathers, which looked very cute, and Shen Pomegranate hurried home with a branch.

Zheng was washing clothes at home, and when he saw Shen Shiliu coming back with an old turtle, he asked, "Why did you bring this thing back?" Weird heavy! ”

"Unsinkable! I'll make it in a while, mother, you know that no matter how much this thing doesn't sink! Shen Shiliu said with a smile, and then found a basin to put the turtle in first, and sprinkled some salt in the water to let the thing spit out the mud and sand first.

Zheng didn't know what Shen Pomegranate was going to do, so he tossed with Shen Pomegranate, but the girl's cooking skills seemed to be self-taught, and she was better than her, so she was relieved to let Shen Pomegranate toss.

Shen Pomegranate estimated that the time was about the same, and the king turtle had to be stewed, which took time, so he rolled up his arms and sleeves and began to clean up.

The soft-shelled turtle knocked it out directly with a mallet, so as not to bite the finger of this thing. As soon as the soft-shelled turtle was dizzy, Shen Pomegranate turned his back to the ground, stepped on it with his foot, and then rubbed his head hard with his hand, and easily removed the shell.

"Mother......, I'll go to the field first......" Shen Shu was startled by his sister's rough movements, wondering if he should not get involved with the woman's work, and left first with a hoe.

Shen Shiliu took the kitchen knife, and smoothly disemboweled, took out all those intestines and stomachs, and then put the meat in clean water to clean.

The wild soft-shelled turtle smells of earthy, so she performs a "muscle massage" with salt and vinegar, and finally spreads the meat with minced ginger and pepper and salt, and the first process is considered complete.

"Mother, I'll help you!" Shen Shiliu stepped forward, Zheng was scratched a few times on the back of his hand because of the fight with Mrs. Zhang before, although the wounds have slowly scabbed, but it will get better if it is wet.

"No, my mother can do it!" Zheng knew that his daughter felt sorry for him, and he was happy.

"I'll come, I have a lot of strength, don't get tired!" Shen Shiliu took the place as he spoke, rubbing his clothes.

"By the way, my mother changed your clothes from before and put them in your room, and you can try it later!" Zheng said, took a handful of fried peanuts and sat next to him to eat.

Shen pomegranate washed a pot of clothes to dry, came back and the soft-shelled turtle was also pickled almost, and began to cut, cut thin and thick, thin boiled directly into the soup, the soup is delicious, thick when the meat is eaten, it must be beautiful!

At noon, when Zheng looked at the soup in the pot, his saliva was about to flow down, and as soon as the lid of the pot was lifted, the yard was full of aroma!

"Oh, I'm weird, you can stew this old turtle like this?" Zheng still doesn't believe it!

Shen Shiliu smiled and served a bowl to Zheng's and said, "Mother, you taste it!" ”

Zheng blew first, then scooped a spoonful of the soup into his mouth.

The soup is rich and fragrant, and it is slightly spicy inside, and there is no earthy smell!

"Good!" Zheng boasted and scooped another spoonful of meat, which happened to be a small claw of a soft-shelled turtle, which was tendonous in his mouth, and he didn't cook it in one go, so he didn't have to say anything about the taste!

Zheng drank a bowl in one go, and before he could finish drinking, Shen Shimei hurriedly filled a large bowl of sea, and took out the cakes that were boiling in the pot just now for his mother to taste well.

"It's really a god, you eat too, let's go deliver food after eating!" Zheng said, this good thing must be eaten by the whole family!

When the time of pain came, no matter how well she did, she would drink two sips at most to try it, and she didn't dare to eat too much, otherwise the sin of weight loss would be considered a wasted effort.

"I'm going to bring food to my father!" Shen Pomegranate packed two portions in a bamboo basket, and the other one was for Shen Shu.

Shen Shiliu went to the ancestral hall, the ancestral hall was almost completed, the big guy finished eating, and the aftermath was also fast, everyone sat down to chat, and just saw Shen Shimei coming to deliver the meal.

"It's so fragrant today, I haven't even lifted the cloth and my dad has smelled it!" Father Shen said with a smile.

As soon as Shen Shimei lifted the cloth, the smell was so fragrant, and when he was hungry at noon, those family members had already begun to dripping before they came to deliver food.

"What kind of meat is this?" Shen's father looks like meat, but the family is willing to buy meat during the New Year's holidays, is this going to the county seat again?

"Brother caught the old turtle in the river, I stewed it!" Shen Pomegranate said and handed the cake to Shen's father, Shen's father heard that it was an old turtle, and felt that it couldn't be delicious, but after taking a bite, his eyes lit up, the old turtle in the river outside the village really tasted like this?

Shen Shimei saw that Shen's father ate deliciously, and smiled, in the future, you don't need to go to the county seat to buy meat, a pound of meat is twenty Wenwen money, and this money is saved.

The people in the circle next to him were going to die of hunger, but Shen's father ate something delicious, ate a bite of cakes, and drank a mouthful of Wang Ba soup, which was simply beautiful.

"Uncle Shen, is it delicious?" Liu Zheng, the youngest son of the old Liu family in the same village, came over, and his eyes were about to fall into the bowl.

"Delicious!" After Father Shen finished speaking, he drank the last bit of soup at the bottom of the bowl, and he was satisfied after drinking.

Shen Shiliu took out a cloth bag, grabbed a handful of fried peanuts from it and gave it to Liu Zheng: "This is my fried peanuts, you can eat them!" After saying that, he gave it back to some uncles and uncles next to him.

This village usually eats boiled peanuts, but I have never eaten this kind of fried peanuts, and it is crispy and fragrant in my mouth, and I asked Shen how to make this thing.

"It's fried, then wrapped in salt and sugar, and if you like salty, you don't need to put sugar!" Shen Pomegranate is not stingy with teaching, and there is no need to hide a fried peanut, it is estimated that the women in the village will understand after eating it, why is she stingy.

"It's delicious, pomegranate girl's craftsmanship, but it's better than my mother!" Liu Zheng smirked after speaking.

Shen Shiliu didn't answer, smiled faintly, and then packed up the bamboo basket and went home.

In the afternoon, Shen Pomegranate took the bamboo strip and followed Zheng to learn to weave a basket, the bamboo slices can be easily bent by roasting with fire, and the skeleton is placed, and the selected willow branches are used to wrap around the top one by one, and a bamboo basket is quickly braided.

"Will this basket fall apart?" Shen Shiliu asked, although the willow branch is soft and easy to basket, it should be easy to break, right?

Zheng smiled: "No, when the willow branches become dry, they will be hard, and they are not afraid of breakage!" ”

Shen Shiliu looked at the wicker and pondered for a while, feeling that he was going to think of something, but he really didn't want to catch the point.

Chaoxia Village is not big, five miles to the south is Anyang County, and people from several surrounding villages want to buy anything to Anyang County.

As soon as Shen Shiliu entered the city gate, there were many people around him who laughed at him, Shen Shu's face was not good, and his hands were always clenched with fists.

"Brother, don't be angry, if you are all angry, it will seem that I care, I actually don't care at all!" Shen Shiliu said to Shen Shu, afraid that Shen Shu would cause trouble for a while, but he was just ......

Who says she doesn't care? She doesn't care where she can lose weight if she is hungry every day without eating!

The two of them wandered around the street, but they didn't have much time, most of their time was wasted on the road, and Shen Pomegranate had to rest for a while after walking a mile......

"Pomegranate, what do you want to see in the county?" Shen Shu asked.

Shen Shiliu said: "I want to find a way to make money!" ”

Shen Shu sighed, and he didn't know how Shen Pomegranate was going to toss.

Anyang County is quite large and has a large population, and Shen Shimei can't go all over the county at once, and finally said: "Brother, you always come to the county seat, where are there many people doing business?" ”

"Chengnan, there are all kinds of sales, and our family usually goes to Chengnan!" Shen Shu said and led Shen Shimei to the south of the city.

The streets of the south of the city are indeed full of people, and the sun shines on the noisy market, and you can listen to the bustle and hustle and bustle.

"Brother, I thought about it, what can we do to make money!" As soon as Shen Shiliu saw this bazaar, she knew where she should be working hard.
