Chapter Seventy-Eight: The Mid-Autumn Festival is coming
Su Changlin's family has been doing a lot of good things recently, the new house has been completed, the tofu workshop is about to be completed, and the rice planted by the river has finally been harvested.
The village names don't know that what they want to plant in September is rice that crops twice a year, but they only say that it is not a problem for the Su family to plant a few acres of rice at home. Only this also envied the eyes of the big guys, and they all considered whether to save some money and plant half an acre next year, even if the family can't afford to eat, it is okay to take it out and exchange it for money.
September didn't know what the villagers thought, but they knew what the old village chief meant, from harvesting, threshing, to rice, the old village chief and Master Xiao also volunteered to be small workers, and Su Youfu and the three old people were very busy.
For the first harvest, a large pot full of rice was made with new rice today. Before cooking at home, I practiced a few of the ones that came and went more on weekdays, and asked Su Jinghang to send them over.
Each of the dozen or so large bowls contained half a bowl of white rice, and the iron pot was half empty, and two spoonfuls of braised pork were added, and the meat bowl was also half empty.
Su Jinghang jumped to his feet in distress, and shouted in his mouth, "Oh, don't add more, there is not enough food at home!" ”
Although Master Xiao didn't shout like this on the side, his eyes stared at the rice and meat bowl, and he also looked distressed.
Yun Niang looked funny, glared at her son, turned her hand and pulled two pieces of pot to wrap rice and braised pork, made two simple rice balls and stuffed them in his hands, and finally ordered, "Don't be careful, these families have made a lot of efforts to harvest rice this time." Hurry up and send it from house to house, and when you come back, we will have dinner. ”
As soon as Su Jinghang had braised pork rice balls and gaged his mouth, he immediately collected his stomach full of dissatisfaction, and ran errands to deliver things while eating.
Master Xiao stood at the door and coughed dryly, as if Qiu Dry had hurt his throat.
September couldn't smile, his eyes were crooked like the first moon, and he quietly pulled the corner of Yun Niang's clothes.
Yun Niang understood, pursed her lips and chuckled, and casually made another rice ball.
"Master Xiao, you also eat a rice ball, I put two more pieces of braised pork."
Master Xiao's face was unnatural, but his subordinates took it, "Okay, good!" ”
In the inconspicuous corner of the compound, there was a faint noise, which soon disappeared without a trace.
After eating, the old village chief and Su Youfu went on the same road. One person and one pot of dry tobacco, the old village chief sighed heavily after smoking a pot
"Life is much better now than before, and if everyone thinks like Changsheng, I'm afraid this blessing won't last long. On weekdays, you tell two sentences, two seasons a year, don't make a noise about this matter first. I see, that granddaughter of yours is amazing, let's see what she has planned. ”
"I'm not stupid, do I really spread the good things of my family all over the world! Don't worry, those in my family won't talk nonsense. Although Su Youfu was excited, he still understood the truth that wealth was not exposed.

The autumn sun is really good, the sky is blue, the autumn breeze is cool and not cold, and the days of peace and tranquility have passed for another day.
On the second day, I got up early, washed up in September, and when I went to the front yard, I saw Master Xiao sitting at the stone table carefully picking rice grains, and there was half a bag of spring rice next to him.
September said with a smile, "Master Xiao, I don't see you on weekdays, why haven't you even left the house these days?" It's still so early today. Why don't you sleep, I'll do these jobs with my mother in a while. ”
Master Xiao smiled and patted the dust on his hands, "I plan to take some of these things away and give them away." Girl, you won't be stingy, will you? ”
"Huh??" September's eyes rolled, and he asked tentatively, "Is it for Gu Chenye?" ”
Master Xiao paused for a moment, but his eyes were full of smiles, "Since you know, I won't hide it from you." It was indeed for him, before he left, he especially asked me to look at the half acre of rice planted by your family, you should know, what does this thing mean, my apprentice, all his thoughts are about your safety, such a big credit in front of him, your family can't eat it for the time being. It can only be handed over to him, you can rest assured. When the time comes, it should be yours, and there will be no less. ”
"Oh, that's right." Thinking of Gu Chenye in September, his face turned into a red halo, and he asked tentatively, "I plan to start planting two crops of rice a year next year, if the villagers plant it by then, it is estimated that this matter will not be hidden for long, you tell him." ”
"You can write to him." Master Xiao looked up.
"Write a letter?" September hadn't thought about it, he had been gone for so long, and he didn't know what was going on now.
"Don't tell me you can't write." Master Xiao looked at September.
"When will it be delivered?"
That's right, this is something for the old man to worry about, "Just leave it to me at night." ”
September's face turned red and he said, "Got it." "I turned around and went to the kitchen.
The corners of Master Xiao's mouth curled, the rice seeds on the table bathed in the morning light, more and more full, the bag on the side was open, and the green and white rice grains were also shining...
"It's good to be young, wow......"
——————
Seeing that the tofu workshop was about to be completed, Zeng Sanye brought someone to send the first batch of tofu making utensils, and he didn't care about supervising the guys to place them well, so he directly looked for September to speak.
The two families are now familiar with each other, and Su Changlin is not polite to him, as soon as he heard him say that he was looking for September, he continued to go to the front yard to help Master Chen dig the pond.
Because there are still more than ten days to go is the Mid-Autumn Festival, I originally wanted to be lazy in September, buy some moon cakes at the dim sum shop in the town, and give gifts during the festival. Unexpectedly, there are no moon cakes here in Daqing. In other words, there is only a prototype of a moon cake, a round and flat white flour cake, with some sugar osmanthus in the middle, which is too low in appearance and the taste is not flattering.
Unable to do so, she can only bake moon cakes in her own oven, Su Youfu has recently spoiled her granddaughter so much that she can't go to heaven, and she obeys her words, but sometimes she has a headache about her granddaughter's eccentric thoughts.
Hearing that the oven was going to be made in September, he immediately called the two people who were good at work, Tiezhu and Huzidad, and Master Xiao knew that the oven made in September was to make new food, and the interest came, so he simply took off his caftan to help.
Zeng Sanye came to the door, and in September, he threw everyone to "struggle" with the oven, and then washed his hands and ran into the house, and said with a smile, "Uncle Zeng, are you here to send utensils?" ”
"Yes," Zeng Sanye smiled and pointed to the busy crowd in the corner of the courtyard and asked, "What are you doing with new things?" ”
"Ah, it's nothing, it's just that the mooncakes sold in the city are not delicious, I plan to bake a few myself." September said with a smile, causing Zeng Sanye to stroke his beard and joke, "Then forget me when it's baked, your craftsmanship must be inferior to the dim sum shops in the city." ”
"Okay, I must send more to you and Sister Yitong, and no one can miss yours." September's words were interesting, and the coaxing Zeng Sanye also smiled.
But he didn't forget his business in the end, and after drinking tea, he said, "In September, the weather is getting colder, and there will be no greens to eat soon." I'm waiting for the first batch of tofu to come out and bring it back to Fucheng. ”
September listened to a little weak-hearted, and has been busy these days, and basically didn't ask about the tofu shop. However...... "No greens to eat?" ”
"Well, it's cold. Your sprouts probably have to stop, right? But when the tofu shop opens, we will definitely make a lot of money. Zeng Sanye said.
The bean sprouts were all taken care of by Su Changsheng, as if she vaguely heard him say something two days ago, and she didn't pay attention to what she was doing at the time. It will be only when I hear September that I will remember the disadvantages of this era.
The south is fine, but in the north in autumn and winter, the greens are gone. No matter what time it was in his previous life, he could eat delicious vegetables even in the winter when the snow covered the ground, and he never thought about the problem that Zeng Sanye said.
In my previous life, there was a greenhouse at home, and I never broke the vegetables in winter, and I planted some vegetables with my grandparents in September, but now it is in Daqing, and she almost doesn't know what the climate is. Seedlings, when to raise seedlings, when to go to the ground, if the connection is not good, it will be troublesome.
Looks like we'll have to find some time to think about it.
"Uncle Zeng, the tofu thing is easy to say, I believe that as long as our things are good and your connections are added, we will definitely be able to get what we want."
The old and the young are talking enthusiastically, and the men outside are also very busy.
Huzi came back from selling bean sprouts, knowing that September was tinkering with new things, and they came to join in the fun. Greeting everyone with a smile, and then replacing the elders after being busy, there was really no discomfort.
In September, he sent Zeng Sanye, who refused to stay for dinner, and just greeted the iron egg lady who brought two little girls to help.
A little girl is Tiedan's sister, called Lihua, and the other is the eldest daughter of the Guo family next door to his house named Lamei, who is the same age as September, and most of them do embroidery work at home on weekdays, and they don't go out much.
Since September, the life of the family is getting better and better, and the people in the village are also envious, so they are willing to move around more with the daughters of the family in September, even if they learn a few skills, they will live a life when they marry in the future.
No, as soon as I heard that I was going to bake dim sum in September and needed help, Tie Dan Niang immediately brought her daughter and the girl next door. This is really "the first month near the water", but for September, everyone welcomes it, and there is no idea of cherishing the broom.
The people in the village on the left and right are real, especially recently, they have also received a lot of help from the big guys. A little snack, and I'm not afraid that they will learn.
There are no additives, yeast powder, and all kinds of auxiliary ingredients in this plane, but there is a benefit, all the ingredients are green food, and the rest assured and natural taste is enough to make up for everything.
This time, the moon cake is ready to make bean paste in September, three kinds of fillings of five kernels and fresh meat, the first two are more wasteful, and the fourth is a "fresh" word.
September is halfway here, and rarely plays with the village girls, so that the village girls are curious and strange to Xiaomi.
Now the pear blossom and the plum are two, while following the iron egg girl busy, while peeking at September from the left and right.
September was a rare joke, and when they peeked, they suddenly looked up and made a grimace, so frightened that the little girl almost threw the bowl in her hand.
September couldn't laugh, and in the sleeves of his coat, two bracelets wrapped in white cotton cloth were revealed. Yun Niang, who was busy on the side, heard the reputation, and her eyes were overflowing with pampering.
Wood was soon put under the oven made of green bricks, and the whole stove was steaming white, and soon the water vapor dissipated, and the whole stove was dried and ready to be officially put on duty.
