The shepherd's cabbage pancakes, although they use multigrain noodles instead of white flour, are golden brown in the pan. The burnt aroma is accompanied by the fragrance of shepherd's cabbage, and the taste is very beautiful in the mouth. The family had never eaten food in this way before, and was immediately overwhelmed by the tantalizing taste.

Liu silently remembered it in his heart, and said with a smile: "I didn't expect that bean noodles and millet noodles can make such delicious food without mixing white noodles." Cao'er, this is also the method that the gods taught you? ”

Yu Xiaocao ate the pancakes with relish, and was stunned for a moment when she heard the words, and then immediately replied: "I don't know either, it should be, right?" Anyway, when you wake up, it will be. It seems that someone in a dream told me that I can dig up this kind of shepherd's cabbage now, and these ways to make shepherd's cabbage - Dad, mother, try this shepherd's cabbage bun, it should taste better than pancakes. ”

When making shepherd's cabbage buns, Xiaocao fried tofu and fried chili peppers, and used a teaspoon of less than a pound of vegetable oil sent by his grandmother, which made Liu's heart distressed. Coupled with the skin on the outside of the bun, two handfuls of white noodles were used, which was a bit too extravagant in Liu's opinion.

She glanced at the buns in the basket, hesitated, took one and handed it to Yu Hai, and said, "I ate two pancakes and drank a big bowl of shepherd's cabbage soup, and I'm already full." Her father, you can eat one and taste it, and keep the rest for the children—by the way, Xiaolian, you go to town tomorrow and send your brother a few steamed buns. By the way, take your father's basket and bamboo basket to the grocery store. ”

When Yu Xiaocao pretended to be sick a few years ago, she followed her father to the town in a hurry. As soon as she heard that she had the opportunity to go to the market town, she immediately volunteered: "Tomorrow it will be me and Xiaoshi, Xiaolian is at home, and she can do some embroidery or something......"

Yu Hai saw that she looked very interested, and couldn't bear to let her be disappointed, and couldn't help but admonish: "It's okay for you to go, pay attention to safety, and don't talk to strangers too much...... Xiaoshi, you take care of your sister more, don't let her get lost! ”

As he spoke, he broke the bun in his hand in half, stuffed the larger one into his daughter-in-law's hand, and said, "Let's all try the girl's craftsmanship, if the taste is good, we can dig up more wild vegetables in the future and make them into buns to sell on the dock." ”

Xiaocao nodded again and again when she heard this, her father is quite business-minded!

From Dongshan Village to the town, it takes nearly an hour and a half (3 hours) to walk. The genius was bright, and Xiaocao was called up by Xiaolian in the same room.

Since the two sisters and brothers were going to the town, Xiaolian got up early to make breakfast, so that they could eat warmly and hurry. Breakfast was a boiled sweet potato porridge, and the leftover pancakes from yesterday were re-boiled in the pot.

Xiaocao drank a full bowl of porridge and ate another pancake, then wiped his mouth and said, "It's full!" Little stone, hurry up, I won't wait for you when it's late! ”

Liu wrapped the remaining three pancakes in cloth and let the two children eat when they were hungry. After thinking about it, he took out a purse from the bottom of the rattan box, counted twenty copper plates from it, stuffed it into Xiaocao, and said: "Take it, the first time you go to the market town, and you see what you want to buy, buy some......"

Although this twenty yuan is not much, it is also extremely precious for the Yu family, who only has more than 200 copper plates left in the family. Twenty yuan can buy more than two catties of white flour, or more than four catties of miscellaneous flour. Xiaocao didn't want it, but Liu forced it to her, saying, "It's okay, take it!" If you can't spend it, you can just get it back. ”

He turned around and took five shepherd's cabbage buns for the boss Yu Hang, all wrapped in a cloth bag. Xiaolian went to her house and took out five purses, and explained: "You go to the 'Zhenlong Embroidery Workshop', give this to the proprietress of the house, and then buy me some ten-dollar silk threads back, and keep the rest of the money for you to buy candy and eat ......."

The corners of Yu Xiaocao's mouth twitched a few times, the old lady's inner core is an adult who is about to run three, don't treat us like a child, okay?

After thousands of instructions from their families, the sister and brother finally embarked on the road to the market town. Not long after going out, I saw Qian Wen, who was carrying a small burden, and was sent out by Mao.

"Where are you two going?" Mao's made soup with shepherd's cabbage yesterday, and it tasted really good, so she thought about bringing her son and daughter together today, and also digging some back, making steamed buns for the children's tooth sacrifice.

Xiao Shi excitedly showed his snow-white teeth, as if he was afraid that others would not know, and said loudly: "My second sister and I will go to the town to deliver steamed buns to the eldest brother!" ”

Qian Wu, who was behind Mao, rubbed his sleepy eyes, and suddenly came to his senses when he heard it: "Mother, I will also go to the town with Xiaoshi to play!" ”

"What to play! Be careful of being photographed away! Today, I'm going to dig wild vegetables with my mother, or I won't give you food at night! Mao pushed Qian Wu, who was twisting his body and playing tricks, into the yard, and said to his eldest son: "Be careful on the road, next time you come back, my mother will make you something to eat!" ”

Xiao Shi looked at Qian Wen's outfit and said, "Brother Xiao Wen, are you going back to the town to study?" I'll go with my second sister too, let's go together! ”

Qian Wen saw that Yu Xiaocao not only had a bulging burden on her body, but also carried three bamboo baskets in one hand and a bamboo basket in the other, so he took the initiative to step forward, took the heavy basket in her hand, and said, "It's far away from the town, you have taken so many things, you should not move for a while." I'll carry the basket for you. ”

"No, no! When I'm tired, I'll carry it with the little rocks! Yu Xiaocao grabbed the basket and didn't let go. But after all, her strength was much smaller than Qian Wen's, and the basket was finally snatched up by him. Xiaocao couldn't help it, so she thanked him.

If you want to talk about Yu Xiaocao, it's really not material for a long journey. She thought that her body had been improved a lot by the spirit stone water, and it should be no problem to walk dozens of miles. It's a pity that she overestimated herself, and the more she walked, the heavier the things in her hands became, and her feet began to be unable to take a step.

Fortunately, Uncle Ma's donkey cart in the next village pulled a few people to the town. Seeing the three children, Uncle Ma greeted warmly: "Do you want to take the car?" I only take two people's money. ”

The three of them soon arrived in town on a donkey cart. Qian Wen was a little worried about the safety of his sister and brother, and said softly: "Xiaocao, there are all kinds of people in the town, why don't you come with me to the school first and put down your things, and I will take you to find your brother......"

Yu Xiaocao politely refused: "No need." My brother and I have been to town before and know the road very well. will not delay Brother Xiaowen's study. ”

"Goodbye, Brother Wen!" The little stone waved at him, and a pair of big eyes looked around.

Xiaocao said goodbye to Qian Wen with his younger brother, inquired about the direction of the grocery store, and prepared to send the bamboo basket and bamboo basket over first. The location of the grocery store was a little off, and the shopkeeper saw the sisters and brothers coming over with freshly knitted baskets and bamboo baskets, and his face was embarrassed, and he said:

"Xiaolian, I'm here to deliver the basket again! This is not the busy season for farming, the bamboo ware is selling slowly, and the last delivery has not been sold. This time, I won't be embarrassed for you, so I'll take it first. Next...... Don't send it. ”

Xiaocao did not correct the title of the shopkeeper, and after thanking the shopkeeper, she silently took her brother's little hand and walked on the street, feeling a little depressed. Dad pointed to weaving some bamboo utensils to sell, and changing some copper plates was secondary, and the most important thing was that by weaving bamboo utensils, he seemed to be proving to himself that he was not a waste.

Alas! Dad's legs, if only they could get better sooner......

When they came to the Zhenlong embroidery shop, the female shopkeeper received their sisters and brothers very warmly: "Yo! Xiaolian, I haven't seen a lot of skin in a few days, and people are also marked. It's really the eighteenth change of the female university! ”

Yu Xiaocao has learned that after the current Emperor Taishang ascended the throne, he once vigorously promoted "equality between men and women" for a while, and later due to various reasons, the policy was not implemented. However, the status of women has improved, and women walking and shopping can be seen everywhere in the streets and alleys. It is not uncommon for women like Zhenlong Embroidery Workshop to be the proprietress of the boss.

Xiaocao is a little glad that she has worn it to this era, and in the future, she will come out to do some small business to subsidize her family, which will not be too out of line.

Thanks to the colleagues who crossed the line, they created a relatively relaxed environment for her. Regarding some rumors about Taizu and the current saint, Xiaocao can be sure that these two are definitely the same as her. Since there are these two, there may be others.

She doesn't have any big ambitions, but she just wants to silently protect her family, be a happy little peasant girl, and occasionally come up with some new ideas and make a little money. "When a fellow sees a fellow countryman, his eyes are full of tears" does not apply to all colleagues who cross the country, she doesn't want to be cannon fodder. It seems that it will be a little more low-key in the future......

"Xiaolian's craftsmanship is getting better and better. It won't be long before I can surpass your mother. Hey? This time, the pattern is quite chic, and the color matching is quite novel. For these five purses, I will raise the price for you to the same as your mother, twenty wen per purse. In the future, embroider more such purses, and I will give you a high price! ”

In the past, Xiaolian's purse was collected for fifteen yuan each, and in this way, she earned an extra twenty-five copper plates. Speaking of which, there is also the credit of Xiaocao, but this time the tricks were all designed by her.

In her previous life, she was very interested in art, and if it weren't for her parents' accident, she would probably enter the specialty class in high school. After taking over the braised vegetable shop, when she is free, she likes to draw flowers and plants for self-entertainment. I didn't expect that after passing through, I could help make two more money.

After putting the money away, Xiaocao took his younger brother in the direction of the carpentry shop. In the carpentry shop, the young man with eyes on the top of his head was still sitting on a chair and dozing off with his feet crossed. Hearing that the sister and brother were looking for Yu Hang, they stood up very reluctantly, and nagged: "Looking for Yu Hang? Didn't that guy just go back a dozen days ago? What a hassle! ”

When Yu Hang came out, he was wearing the cotton clothes that Xiaocao sent him years ago. However, for more than two months, the cotton clothes have opened several openings, revealing the white cotton inside. Xiaocao knows that his brother is a person who cherishes clothes very much, and it stands to reason that new clothes will not look like this.
