"Uncle, second uncle, aunt! Uncle Santang? How did you guys get here? Yu Xiaocao pulled the latch of the door, opened the door, saw several figures standing in front of the door, and couldn't help shouting in surprise.

Xiaocao's third cousin, Yu Jiang, glanced at the courtyard and said with a smile: "I heard the second brother say, you will stay at home alone today to pick vegetables, you can't be busy, right?" Your grandfather asked me to come over and help. ”

"I can be busy, the aunt of the Zhou family has brought two sisters to help, and the aunt of the Qian family!" Xiaocao hurriedly let people out into the yard.

Uncle Liu Pei's hair was dripping, I don't know if it was the morning dew or the sweat of the hurried journey. With a smile on his honest face, he asked loudly, "Xiaocao, your father has already gone to the ground?" Then let's go to the field and help! ”

Seeing that the family didn't need his help, Yu Jiang said to Xiaocao's uncles, "Do the two eldest brothers know the way to the field?" I'm here to help, too, and since the family can be busy, I'll also help turn the floor! Let's go, I'll take you! ”

Xiaocao figured out the intention of his uncle and uncles, and said movingly: "Uncle, second uncle, you have a lot more land than our family, at this time everyone is rushing for spring ploughing, you are here, grandpa, can they be busy?" ”

The eldest aunt touched Xiaocao's white and tender little face, wiped off the dirt marks on her chin, and said with a smile: "Your grandfather has long remembered your family's spring ploughing, saying that your father's leg is not very neat, and Xiaosha is injured again." You have little land, first turn over your land and plant it! ”

Yu Jiang also smiled and said, "Your family wants to go with us." The more help the sooner done! Just your three acres of land, a few of us, don't turn it over in half a day. ”

"Yo! Why is it so lively today? Qian Xiaoduo drove the carriage and came over. Far away, I saw a lot of people standing at the door of the Yu family's old house, and I was afraid that something would happen, so I galloped over.

"Little Brother Duo came early today, and the dishes haven't been picked out yet, so you sit in the yard and drink saliva to rest." Yu Xiaocao saw that he usually came with the Yao family's little four, and when he looked back, he saw the Yao family's carriage coming.

Qian Xiaoduo smiled bitterly and said, "Miss Yu, when you are our younger sister, how dare you be a 'brother'?" You might as well call me Xiaoduo! ”

"He's him, you're you! Let's go our separate ways! Yu Xiaocao smiled sincerely.

Liu Pei looked at the sky and said to his daughter-in-law: "You don't want to go to the field, stay and help pick vegetables, cook or something." Xiaocao, let's go to the field first. ”

"Uncle, second uncle, come all the way, let's drink saliva and rest first!" In Xishan Village, where my grandmother's family lived, I had to climb over a big mountain when I came over, and when I saw my uncles' trouser legs wet with dew, I knew that they set off before dawn.

"No, you don't! Go plough the ground first! "Second uncle Liu Han has a boring temperament and doesn't talk much.

Seeing that she couldn't keep them, Xiaocao took a water bag from the kitchen, filled it with diluted spirit stone water, and asked her uncles to take it. Drinking spiritual stone water not only quenches thirst, but also relieves fatigue.

Under the leadership of Yu Jiang, the uncles set off towards the field. Xiao Si'er also drove the carriage to the door and began to unload the bamboo basket. The bamboo baskets used to hold vegetables are all made by Yu Hai. The amount he needs every day is quite large, so when he has free time in the evening, he will cut some bamboo and come back to weave baskets.

"Little Grass Girl! From today, we have to double the amount of vegetables we want. Our lord's friend had a meal at home, not to mention that our vegetables taste better than the ones they bought! The two families live not far away, no, let me come along and help buy some. ”

The Yao family buys vegetables, mainly for a few masters and stewards, and the amount they need every day is not much, half a car is enough. Therefore, doubling it can also be pulled.

Qian Xiaoduo grunted and drank the water that Xiaocao brought to him, wiped the corners of his mouth with his sleeve, and said with a smile: "The mountain spring water is different, the taste is sweet and silky, and after drinking it, it is full of strength." Little Si'er, hurry up and drink, finish drinking and go to work! ”

Every time Qian Xiaoduo comes, he has to drink a bowl of Yu family's tea, although it is white water, it is more refreshing than the best tea.

Xiao Si'er also hurriedly finished filling the water in the bowl, waved his arm, and said with a smile: "Go!" Pick vegetables and go!! "These two, every time they come, they will help with some work, as if they were their own home.

With the addition of the eldest aunt and the two of them, the speed of picking vegetables is naturally much faster. In a few moments, the empty baskets were filled with watery vegetables.

Xiaocao washed a few cucumbers, and one person divided one: "Home-grown, you're welcome." How about tasting it! ”

Fang Shi refused, shook his head again and again, and said: "Your vegetables are not cheap now, how many catties of these cucumbers are not good?" It can be sold for hundreds of texts. Don't waste it, put it in the basket! ”

Zhou Sango, a snack snacker, had already opened his mouth wide, and he almost stuffed the cucumber in his mouth. Hearing what her mother said, her mouth pouted, but she consciously put the cucumber into the basket.

Xiaocao hurriedly stuffed the cucumber back into her hand and said, "You've been helping for almost an hour, can you still be reluctant to eat cucumbers?" Treat our house like an iron rooster? ”

"You kid!" The eldest aunt Han Shi glared at her and smiled at the helper, "Although the child doesn't like what he says, he is honest. Eat, eat! ”

Yu Xiaocao saw that others were still hesitant not to eat, so she broke the cucumbers from the middle one by one, showed them them, and said with a smile: "It's broken, I can't sell it!" ”

"This kid!" Fang couldn't laugh or cry. She picked up the broken cucumber and took a bite. The crisp and juicy texture, the light and sweet taste, immediately conquered her palate.

"Wow! Xiaocao, your cucumbers are better than others! Zhou Shan screamed as he ate.

Of course! The cucumbers that have been watered with spiritual stone water are not only big, but also delicious. Naturally, these can't be told to them directly, Xiaocao just smiled: "You are eating cucumbers for the first time after half a year, so you think it is delicious." Later, when your family comes down and eats too much, you won't feel it. ”

Qian Xiaoduo chewed the cucumber in a big gulp, and said with a smile: "This cucumber is really good!" Little Grass Girl, what kind of fat is on the ground in your house? Vegetables grow so well, and they grow so fast. Yesterday I couldn't pick cucumbers, but today I harvested two baskets! ”

"Uh...... Now that the weather is warmer, vegetables naturally grow faster. Xiaocao casually made an excuse. Fortunately, Qian Xiaoduo's family is not farming, but he just said it casually and did not study it deeply.

The vegetables were weighed and the silver was paid, and Qian Xiaoduo and Xiaosi'er hurried back. Zhenyulou is still waiting for this batch of vegetables to entertain guests!

The Mao family and the Fang family left when they passed the scales. The eldest aunt Han looked at the fifty taels of silver in Yu Xiaocao's hand, and couldn't stop talking: "I didn't expect the dishes in this season to be so expensive!" Cucumbers cost 30 wen a pound? It's worth the price of pork, right? ”

Yu Xiaocao smiled at her, gave her a red tomato, and said, "Now vegetables such as cucumbers and beans haven't come down yet!" The rich people in the city all want to eat fresh, not bad for the two of them! When you shoot a cucumber on a plate, you can sell it for one or two silver! This price is even more trivial to them! ”

Xiaocao's cucumbers, one can shoot a plate, and the cost is only a few dozen yuan. A plate of cucumbers, selling hundreds of times the profit, tsk, there is no one!

Han saw that it was still early, so he went to the field to help. Xiaocao stopped her and said, "I don't have much land, my father and uncle are enough." The eldest aunt sat down to rest and eat a tomato. Help me clean up the ducks in a moment. ”

"Tomatoes? I thought it was a persimmon! And said where did you get the persimmons at this time? Han looked curiously at the red tomato in his hand.

"This is a tomato, we eat less in this small place, it is said that the capital and some big cities in the south eat more. Tomatoes can be cooled with sugar, or scrambled eggs can be used to cook soup...... "Yu Xiaocao motioned to his aunt to try it.

Han found that there were not many tomatoes picked, only four or five, so he smiled and said, "I won't eat it, I'll keep it for a while to cook, and everyone will eat it together!" ”

What else did Xiaocao have to say, Han had already stood up, walked to the kitchen door, picked up the duck with his legs tied, and was about to walk to the edge of the well!

"Wait a minute, aunt! I'm going to get a big bowl of duck blood! Speaking of duck blood, Xiaocao can't help but think of delicious foods such as "duck blood stewed tofu" and "duck blood vermicelli soup".

Han Shi thought for a while and said with a smile: "It turns out that not only chicken blood, but also duck blood, you can also make delicious food!" The duck's internal organs can also be eaten! ”

Xiaocao nodded and said, "I'll marinate the duck gizzard, duck liver and duck intestines in a while, and I can add dishes at noon!" Duck blood, unfortunately there are no vermicelli, just make a duck blood stewed tofu! ”

Han skillfully pulled a knife on the duck's neck, dripping blood into the bowl, and asked, "Vermicelli?" What is that? Is it tasty? ”

"Haven't you heard of vermicelli?" Isn't there a vermicelli in this era? When did vermicelli appear in history? Xiaocao, who has not yet graduated from junior high school, can't help but feel a little confused.

Han shook his head, threw the duck that had kicked his legs on the ground, and picked up another one: "I've never heard of vermicelli?" Is it delicious to stew with duck blood? ”

"Vermicelli can be made with sweet potato flour or mung bean flour, and it tastes smooth and strong!" Xiaocao's eyes lit up, and a way to make money was brewing in his mind.

Boil the pot of boiling water, scald the duck, and plucking the duck feathers is also a grand project. Xiaocao is responsible for cleaning up the duck's internal organs and marinating them with old marinade.

She was going to make two ducks into saltwater ducks, but due to time constraints, the pickling process for one of them had to be shortened. With her craft, it shouldn't have much of an impact.
