Early the next morning, as soon as the rooster crowed, Zhang Manchu got up. [No pop-ups. Now the tea picking and green making at home are handed over to Aunt Tian and Aunt Ma, so Lin Baozhu can also be more relaxed, but she doesn't have to get up so early every day. And the cooking also has the eldest daughter-in-law of Mrs. Lu's family, Mei Ying's sister-in-law, to help with cooking, so she doesn't need to get up early and be greedy at all.

However, after the shipment, he went to the town to deliver tea, but he still had to go early. First, there is no ox cart and carriage at home, and secondly, it is cooler to get up early in the morning, and it is also uncomfortable to save sweat on the road.

By the time Lin Baozhu got up, Aunt Tian had already fried two or three pots of dried tea. Because the yard is small and the belongings are not complete, the tea making still occupies the west wing and the stove room.

Fortunately, Mei Ying's sister-in-law got up early to leave her food, and the weather was not cold, so it was still warm at this time. After a few bites of hastily, she felt that her stomach was not very hungry, so she smiled and worked with Aunt Tian.

"Baozhu, I really didn't see it, your family is full of such a rough man, and his mind is quite fine." On the side, Sister-in-law Wang wiped the beads of sweat on her face, and saw that Lin Baozhu came over to talk and laugh with everyone, so she couldn't help but smile and said, "Then Meiying's sister-in-law also said that when she went out, she specially instructed her to leave food for you." ”

As soon as these words fell, Aunt Tian and Daju on the side also laughed, "But no, or I'll just say it, people who have a daughter-in-law are different, and when they marry, they will know that they feel distressed." In the future, who would dare to say that Manhoard is a bad star? ”

Da Juyuan is also shy, but I've been working for a long time, and I know that everyone doesn't have a fight, and when I meet a joker, I will add a few words softly.

"In the final analysis, Baozhu is capable, and the man can't pick out the slightest bit inside and out. It would be strange if it didn't fit well. ”

The small courtyard was suddenly full of talk, and in the midst of the busyness, the sound of joking and gossip was not interrupted at all. And the thatched house yard of the Zhang family, which no one once wanted to set foot in, or even come to the door, is no longer the original cold.

Laughing and laughing, a tea basket and a tea basket of dried fresh leaves were fried into the bamboo dustpan. Just wait for Lin Baozhu to be refined at the end, and then put it away.

Looking at the very clean tea leaves that were sorted, and then looking at the big chrysanthemums that were very well dried and shaken, Lin Baozhu sighed again in his heart that the ancients were meticulous and ingenious. I have only taught them a few times, and I can make them look decent, although there will also be cases of broken green, but compared to the prepared tea, that is simply negligible.

Seeing that there is no need to do the work by himself now, Lin Baozhu simply fished out the soybeans that had been soaked before, and then washed them with water. After informing Aunt Tian, I went to the stone mill on Nan'an to grind bean juice.

Speaking of which, it is also a poor place, and there is not even a tofu workshop that makes tofu. Whenever someone wants to eat tofu, they just get some beans to grind by themselves, and then buy some brine into water to order some by themselves. If you encounter someone with bad craftsmanship, I'm afraid that it will be difficult to eat tofu.

Nowadays, most of the people in the village have added a lot of input because of Zhang Manchu and Lin Baozhu, but they have not been able to work in Zhang Ji, and they have also replaced the copper plate by doing some manual work in their spare time. This is much more than chopping firewood and selling firewood every day on weekdays or looking forward to hatching chicks and selling cubs, so when I saw Lin Baozhu carrying a basket to grind bean juice, two mothers-in-law who were resting and chatting on the edge of the stone mill helped push it for a while.

With someone to help, what should have been very difficult was done quickly. In a quarter of an hour, the two small pots of soybeans in her basket were all ground. The slightly yellowed soybean juice with the scent of beans flowed like a stream from the stone mill to the small wooden barrel she had brought.

After finishing this work, she naturally thanked the people again and again, and also wrote down the favor of the two mothers-in-law who had just helped her to grind. It doesn't matter what it's for, anyway, people help themselves, and they can't pretend that they don't know anything or have to handle anything.

When I got home, Aunt Ma, who was picking tea for inspection, was already weighing, and when she saw Lin Baozhu coming back, she greeted her with a smile and got busy again. Aunt Ma can't read, but she has her own way of counting, these days, I don't see that she has never used a pen, but she has never missed the number. She hadn't even encountered a situation of fishing in troubled waters, and the reason was on the stick she was holding in her hand, but if there was enough for a copper plate, she would give a small piece of stick, and of course she kept the rest for herself, waiting for the payment to pay, so she compared them one by one.

As long as she sent it out, she would be able to recognize it with a glance. If it was another wooden stick, no matter how similar it was, it wouldn't be able to coax her.

It is also for this reason that Lin Baozhu believes in Aunt Ma very much. She knew the importance of delegating power, so she simply kept the account when she was on the account at the end, and then compared it with the daughters-in-law and the aunt Ma.

In this way, there really hasn't been anything wrong.

Not to mention that, before the first day came up, Aunt Ma weighed the fresh leaves and came to report the number to Lin Baozhu. Seeing that it was still early, she simply went to help sort the tea again. After all, she gets a salary of three taels of silver a month, no matter how she says it, she is not happy in her heart, but she has to have some work in her eyes, maybe she has so much work to make her feel at ease.

Probably this is the most generous idea of the simple people, you can't take advantage of people in vain, but all the work that can be done will never be delayed.

There is no need to be busy with the tea making over there, and Lin Baozhu is still happy. In addition, Aunt Tian and Aunt Ma really helped her set up a small workshop, so it also saved her a lot of worry. At this time, seeing that the big guys were waving their hands and saying that they didn't have her work to do, Lin Baozhu simply went to the yard to set up a small stove and poured the filtered bean juice into the pot and boiled it.

The soy milk is not heat-resistant, and it boiled after a while, and seeing that it was almost there, Lin Baozhu hurriedly withdrew some of the firewood from the small stove, and then buried the fire again. Just boiling at such a low temperature made a thin film float on the surface of the pot of soy milk.

Seeing that the film was getting thicker and thicker, Lin Baozhu was very happy, and thought that he would have to practice twice to make it, but he didn't expect it to be made as soon as he started it. She didn't dare to delay, so she quickly took the long chopsticks that her man polished and smoothed for her to use to fry tea, and then went to the fence and the bean shelf in the yard to prop up and dry.

In my previous life, when I learned to make spicy yuba noodles with the kitchen master, I was also busy, and at that time, I used four catties of soybeans, and it took almost a whole day to finish. Now that the wood stove is boiling in a small pot, she estimates that it will take more than half a day.

In fact, it would be easy to just burn that layer of bean skin, no, Lin Baozhu, who had picked it a few times in a row, was familiar with it, but it had already been dried a lot in two quarters of an hour.

Thinking about the hot day, everyone didn't dare to stop for a moment of busy work, and they couldn't even drink saliva. Simply, I let the rest of the soy milk cool, and then put some sugar in it to quench everyone's thirst.

In fact, there is not much soy milk, but because it is thickened by boiling, it tastes good with some cold and white boiling, and then some sugar. And it's enough for one person to drink.

No, Lin Baozhu went into the stove room and took out all the bowls in the cupboard, rushed a bowl by one person, and then brought it to the stove room to let everyone rest first. Thinking that it was almost time for her man to come back, she left two bowls and put them in cold water.

Everyone didn't expect to have sweet soy milk to drink, and everyone was full of joy. When I drank the sweet taste of soy milk, I was even more reluctant to drink it. In these years, white sugar is something that everyone is reluctant to eat on weekdays, at most there are children at home, and the old people will buy some when they feel sorry for their grandchildren. Even so, when it is not usually the time to entertain guests, they will hide and save it, for fear that they will lose face if they can't take it out when they use it. Where would you think that Lin Baozhu would be so generous, and actually pour sugar water on them?

Seeing that everyone was a little embarrassed to serve the bowl, Lin Baozhu couldn't help but look at Aunt Tian and Aunt Ma as if asking for help. To be honest, even if you work for your own family, you should drink a sip of sugar water if you are a neighbor or a neighbor. After all, there are contacts and contacts, and they can get along for a long time in the future, not to mention that their own family has just entered the eyes of the people in the village, so it can be regarded as selling personal favors, which is beneficial and harmless to their own family.

Aunt Tian is the most familiar with Lin Baozhu, knows her temperament, and when she saw her bring sweet bean juice, she knew that Baozhu had no false thoughts. Now looking at her bitter face and a little embarrassed, she immediately took the lead in serving a bowl with a smile, and said jokingly: "Haha, if you don't drink it, I'll drink it all." The main family gives some food, but they don't drink it for nothing. ”

A few people on the side glanced at each other, and naturally laughed. With this smile, the restrained atmosphere just now disappeared, and they just went over and took the bowls. Some of them were handed over to the people on the side, no more, no less, just enough for everyone to drink.

"Speaking of which, we are really blessed, who has this treatment outside." Daju took a sip of cold bean juice, only to feel comfortable all over, and couldn't help but breathe a long sigh of relief, the sweat that had just been smoked by the heat of the stove in the house seemed to be cooled.

Hearing this, not all the people who came to work echoed it, but there was not one who was not satisfied. This is really true, don't look at Zhang Manchu, the man often has a cold face and doesn't talk much, but he has never said anything about the treasure bead from time to time to get some food for everyone.

At first, they were a little frightened, but later they got used to it, and they felt that the evil star was not as terrifying as they imagined. Especially when he sees him circling around the orb, which one still thinks it is terrifying and fierce?

A few people said this, drank the bean juice, and the next step was not to work hard.
