At dinner, the dumplings were really wrapped by Niang, and they were filled with cabbage and pork.

Yuqi ate sullenly, and the cabbage-filled dumplings were eaten in her mouth, but this was not what she wanted to eat, and she sighed unconsciously.

Yu Jie heard it with the tip of her ears, and she didn't know what was wrong with the eldest sister, and she was not happy to eat fragrant meat dumplings.

"Eldest sister, what's wrong with you?"

Zhu Yan and Fan Junjiang both looked at her when they heard this.

When my mother saw her wilting, she thought she was sick, and reached out to probe her forehead, isn't it hot?

"Mother, I'm fine. ”

"And said it's okay, you see how many dumplings you have eaten in your bowl? ”

"Yes, big girl, if you don't feel comfortable, Dad will invite Lang Zhong to go. ”

Yuqi looked at her father's nervous expression, looked at her sister's worried eyes, and felt warm in her heart.

"Mother, I'm really fine, I just want to eat sauerkraut. ”

"Sauerkraut?" Dad was surprised.

"What is sauerkraut?" the mother wondered.

Uh, how do you explain it?

"Mother, if you pickle cabbage like pickles, you say that it will not be sour in the end. She said cautiously.

Zhu Yan thought about it in her mind, the pickles are salty, and the cabbage should be salty, how can it be sour?

"Probably not, it is estimated that pickled out is salted cabbage. ”

Yuqi didn't see that her mother was not covered, and blinked her eyes a few times, thinking about it.

"Mother, let's eat cabbage in winter, why don't you pickle a few cabbage?"

Zhu Yanwenyan glanced at her:

"It's so good to eat fresh, why bother eating that pickle, you haven't eaten enough before. ”

She refused without thinking about it, in her subconscious, in previous years, the most she ate every day was pickles, and now there are fresh vegetables that she doesn't eat, but eats the pickles, which is not looking for abuse!

"If the child wants to eat, you can pickle it, anyway, this winter, you can't eat cabbage bongzi. ”

"Mother, I haven't eaten pickled cabbage yet, why don't you pickle some?" Yu Jie blinked her eyes and was also curious, what is the taste of pickled cabbage.

Fan Dahe shrugged his shoulders, just lowered his head and ate fragrant dumplings, not caring about the pickles in their mouths at all.

Zhu Yan looked at it, five people, three of them supported, yes, it was impossible not to nod.

"Okay, I'll pickle it tomorrow. ”

The three of them all laughed, and Yuqi was the most happy, and in the days to come, she would finally be able to eat sauerkraut.

The next day, after breakfast, Zhu Yan moved out of the big vat in the kitchen and rinsed it with well water several times, intending to use it to pickle cabbage, but Yuqi shook her head without grabbing the vat and doing so.

"Mother, pickles must not be pickled in the oil tank that drives by, otherwise they will rot. ”

Zhu Yan frowned:

"Where did you hear about it, I used to pickle vegetables like this, and I didn't see rotten, how can I pickle cabbage and rot?"

"Oh, mother, it's pickle pimple, so it won't rot, this is a green leafy vegetable, it's not going to rot, it's really going to rot, it's a pity for those cabbages?"

Zhu Yan was also skeptical about this, feeling sorry for those cabbages and being afraid of rotting, and finally listened to her words, it was useless, and she moved the new jar out of the kitchen again.

When washing the tank, I was careful and careful, and I washed it five or six times before it was finished.

After placing the big tank in the kitchen, the mother and the mother began to put the cabbage in the tank, and at this time Yuqi took a large kitchen knife, divided the cabbage in half from the middle, and then handed it to the mother.

Zhu Yan was completely dead, she really didn't understand whether this was called pickled vegetables or tuncai, there were such a big ones in the jar, and in the end she couldn't screw her, so she obediently put the vegetables into the jar.

The two of them were busy laughing in the kitchen for half an hour, and finally put all the dishes in, and the last step was left, which was to release the water, Yuqi didn't say it, and Zhu Yan didn't know, thinking that it was over, she threw her sleeves and left.

Yuqi was left alone in the kitchen, lying at the door of the kitchen, looking left and right to see no one, boldly put the time on the edge of the tank, his mind turned slightly, and began to enlarge the water in the tank.

The days have passed, a month has passed, and now you have to wear thick cotton clothes when you walk outside, otherwise your hands and feet will freeze.

As soon as the morning dawned, my mother got up early, cleaned the lotus seeds and various beans that had been soaked last night several times, mixed with rice, and put millet in the pot and slowly boiled it.

Then he began to pick the garlic, ready to pickle some laba garlic, and after a busy morning, the garlic was also soaked in vinegar, and the laba porridge was also boiled.

Everyone was hungry all morning, and finally ate the sweet eight-treasure porridge at noon.

Dad felt and said: "It's really not easy to eat an eight-treasure porridge." ”

Yu Jie and Yu Qi both nodded vigorously, and the rare Fan Dahe said: "It's delicious." ”

A simple and true sentence moved Zhu Yan to tears.

The days fly by, the twenty-fifth day of the lunar month, and the last market in the town, early in the morning, a family of five went into battle, ready to purchase, prepare New Year's goods, and go to relatives to use things, this year is not better than in previous years, made some silver, and bought land, it is time to celebrate.

Those who walked slowly and slowly did not catch up with the ox cart in the village, and the two big and three children had no choice but to drive to the town on two legs.

"Pilot"

The village chief's ox cart came to their side and stopped.

Yuqi looked back and saw that it was the village chief's family and the Urummu family, and it looked like they were going to the town to purchase.

"Fan Laosi, you didn't catch the ox cart?"

"yes, I woke up late and didn't catch up. Fan Laosi waved his hand with heavy gloves.

The village chief turned around and glanced at the car, if they squeezed it, they could fit it.

"It's a long way from town, so let's get in the car with the kids and give you a ride. ”

Wu Mengshi pursed his lips a few times, hugged his grandson, and said unhappily:

"There are more than a dozen people in this car, where are you going to release people? ”

"Why are you talking, you mother-in-law? The village chief jumped out of the carriage and glared at her angrily.

"What, I'm right, look at this car, the second family, our family, nine people, big and small, how can you sit down. ”

Fan Laosi saw that things were not good, and he couldn't fight because of himself, how bad it was, so he hurriedly stepped forward and persuaded: "Village chief, I know your kindness, let's stop sitting, walking, and the body is hotter." ”

The village chief secretly glared at his mother-in-law, and turned around and responded, "Okay, then so be it." ”

The ox cart gradually moved away, and Yu Qi let out a bad breath, isn't it just an ox cart, and when the New Year is over, let my father buy one and take him for a ride.

A short episode on the road didn't affect the mood of a few people.

As soon as I arrived at the gate of the town, I saw a sea of people, and it was not so crowded that people couldn't walk, but it was fast.

The sellers of goods also put their things on the ground early, and there was no need to shout, and the people who bought them besieged the city.

"Mother, there are so many people in this market. This is the first time Yuqi has seen so many people buying things at the same time in ancient times, which is comparable to modern Golden Week.

"Big girl, this is just the beginning, and there will be more people than this in a while. ”

"More more?" Yu Jie exclaimed, this is almost too crowded to walk, what will it be like if it takes a while!

When Yuqi heard this, she automatically made up her brain on the side.

From the beginning to the end of the market, the three children met something they liked, Zhu Yan and Fan Junjiang were not stingy, and they bought it with a smile.

The three children are not the masters of spending money, the girls all like silk flowers, and they are not expensive, one Wuwen, Yuqi and Yujie bought two, and changed the belt back and forth.

Fan Dahe didn't like these, but fell in love with a sword, Dad frowned, remembered the scene when he was rescued, pondered for a moment, and finally spent three taels of silver to buy a better one, although it can't be sharpened like clay, but it is much stronger than the knife for chopping wood.

Fan Junjiang regretted a little when he bought this sword, afraid that he would hurt people with the sword, and along the way, he heard his father keep persuading: "Dahe, we bought this sword to exercise, not to hurt people." ”

Dahe nodded vigorously: "I know, uncle, don't worry, I will, resolutely not hurt people with a sword, I promise you." "At most, it's just scare and scare, whisper in my heart.

But not long after leaving, Fan Junjiang couldn't help but chatter.

Dahe was smart enough to promise as soon as he opened his mouth, if he had been annoyed normally, but this time he was surprisingly not, and his temperament was much better than usual.

The children's things are gone, but the things for the family have not been bought.

I turned around, and it was already noon when I walked down, and a few people walked to a nearby chaos shop and ordered six bowls of chaos, don't ask the five people why they ordered six bowls, because someone is happy today, and one person guards two bowls.

Yuqi watched Fan Dahe gobble up the wontons in his arms, rolled his eyes, and was not afraid of death in two large bowls.

Two watches at six o'clock in the evening. Crowd of Mo Da
