said that she was tired, but Liu Sanniang's face was full of smiles, and today she went to the mountains to get chestnuts again, and picked a lot of wild fruits, and the most important thing is to bring back the peppercorns of the two major trees, and after drying them, you can have at least thirty catties of small ones.

Sichuan pepper now has to be sold for fifty wen a catty, and thirty catties is always another five hundred wen, how easy it is to make this money.

I didn't buy the chestnuts I took back yesterday, and kept them for my own food. In previous years, I had to buy my own chestnuts to eat, and I only ate them once or twice, but this year I have chestnuts that don't cost money, so eat more. The chestnuts that were recovered today can be taken out and sold tomorrow, and the money from the sale will be distributed to Yuan Niang, otherwise she will be empty-handed, and it will be difficult to open her mouth with money.

Zou Xiaoxi was serving food outside, and there was a plate of fried black chestnuts on the table, and the Gan butcher thought that no one ate it because it was baked, so he opened one and ate it, "Why are these chestnuts so sweet?" ”

"This is Xiaowen's fried this morning, it's much more delicious than dry frying, and the hot one is better than the cold one, so I went back to the pot again." Zou Xiaoxiao said.

Liu Sanniang heard that Tang Xiaowen fried it, so she hurriedly asked Gan Butcher to peel one for her to taste, "I haven't taught her to fry chestnuts yet." ”

"Originally, I wanted to boil water to scald the chestnuts so that I could peel them, but I forgot about them while burning the fire." Tang Xiaowen said embarrassedly. "Thankfully, the chestnuts weren't wasted."

The children liked the sweet chestnuts, and divided the chestnuts into heads, and each one ate his own portion, and Ganderly ate it quickly, and when he was done eating, he looked at his brothers, and Gambori gave him his share to eat, and Gandrey divided it into three parts, and divided it with the little nine and eleven. Gan Butcher doesn't like this overly sweetness, he still likes to eat roasted chestnuts that have been burned in a charcoal fire.

"This chestnut Shichiro must like to eat it, and I'll make some tomorrow for Dalang to send over." Gan Da is the Gan Houli who is worried about the outside.

"Make some chestnut cakes and send them over." Liu Sanniang said. "Autumn is dry, tell Shichiro to drink more water, and there is a small jar of honey at home, bring it to Shichirou and buy it at home." The latter sentence is said to Zou Xiaoxi.

"There's still some honey." Zou Xiaoxi said, "Shall we go to Uncle Liu's to buy honey?" ”

"If he comes, he will buy it from him, and this time he will buy more, lest in a few days, he will increase the price again." Liu Sanniang said that she asked Tang Qian'er again if the honey in the restaurant was enough?

"I haven't even been to the back kitchen to ask, if it's less, Huang Er will say it." Tang Qian'er said.

"Now that his daughter-in-law has a body, he has to divide his energy, and the new worker doesn't know, you still have to ask tomorrow." Liu Sanniang said.

Tang Qian'er should be fine.

Gan Mingli Gan Lili looked at each other and said that they didn't want to go to school anymore, Gan Lili said that he went to the restaurant to help his mother, Gan Mingli said, "I haven't figured out what to do yet, let's do these chores for my eldest brother first." ”

Gamberley has long wanted to do something, but now that the family has no surplus manpower, he has to help collect and deliver vegetables, and he can't do his own business, so he can only look at his eel pond for a little time.

"You've got it figured? Your second brother went to school at this time last year, and Da Lang started school this year, and I think you two will be out of school by next summer. "There is no shortage of you two-and-a-half-grown children in the house." ”

"The two of us are like this when it comes to studying anyway, and it won't be of much use to study for half a year." Gan Mingli said, "There are many trivial things at home, and the two of us are at home, and it is good for Grandma to have two more people." ”

"Then you'll be able to figure it out." Gan butcher said.

Gan laughed and said, "Do you think it's a beautiful errand at home?" Tomorrow, they will follow me into the mountains to collect firewood, and first gather enough firewood for the winter. ”

Gan Xiaotang counted the age of his third brother and fourth brother, the third brother is twelve years old, and the fourth brother will only be twelve years old next year, and he will drop out of school at the age of the sixth grade of primary school, so pitiful.

Gan Xiaotang flattened his mouth and was a little aggrieved, but seeing that the family was accustomed to it, nowadays children are almost mixed to the age of twelve to start thinking about the future, either to follow the family to learn farming, or to learn art, or to send to the shop as an apprentice, like the Gan family can still send children to a few years of school is already a great behavior, most of the life literacy can not recognize a basket of people abound.

Gan Mingli didn't want to be a butcher, Gan Da had no regrets, Gan Lili said that he was going to the restaurant to help, but Tang Qian'er seemed to be preoccupied, Gan Er was not at home, she didn't have anyone to talk to, pulled Zou Xiaoxi and said that she chose winter clothes for the children, but she actually wanted to chat with her, and Gan Xiaotang hugged her little wooden horse and followed in.

"It's not good for Shiro to accompany you in the restaurant? You don't keep saying you don't want to stay in a restaurant by yourself. Zou Xiaoxiao said.

"Of course it's good that Shiro can accompany me." Tang Qian'er said, "But this restaurant is supposed to be reserved for Erlang, and now Shiro is going to the restaurant to help, but I am afraid that I will have ideas in my heart in the future." ”

"What you think, the children have a good relationship, and the elder brother will not fight with the younger brother." Zou Xiaoxi said, let's talk about Erlang in front of everyone Don't want a restaurant, don't look at others laughing and talking doesn't count, it can be seen from the attitude towards his father that Erlang is a tough person and says everything.

"I'm afraid that Erlang really doesn't want a restaurant, so the restaurant can only be left to Shiro." Tang Qian'er said, "You know, my father wants his granddaughter to marry his grandson, only Shiro is suitable, and it was originally discussed that when Shiro is twelve years old, he will be apprenticed to his uncle." ”

"What's the matter?" Zou Xiaoxi said, "Shiro inherited the restaurant, and he didn't delay marrying his cousin." ”

Gan Xiaotang opened her mouth wide at the right time, could it be that Sister Xiaowen would be her fourth sister-in-law, cousin and cousin are not in line with eugenics, but in ancient times, they didn't seem to care about this, they were relatives and childhood sweethearts, etc., I didn't see that the fourth brother had anything special about Sister Xiaowen, it was not as good as the fifth brother being called by Sister Xiaowen, did he know that Sister Xiaowen would be his daughter-in-law in the future?

"Why does my father have to marry Xiaowen to our family, just so that Shiro can pick up the burden of the grocery store over there, and the best child is also surnamed Tang." Tang Qian'er said.

"That's a lump?" Zou Xiaoxi asked.

Tang Qian'er nodded.

"That Shiro inherited the restaurant here, and he won't delay the grocery store over there." Zou Xiaoxi thought for a while and said, "Besides, it will take six or seven years for the child to get married, and it is useless for you to think about such a long-term thing now, there are too many variables." ”

"But Shiro is going to the restaurant for now." Tang Qian'er said.

"You don't need to say that the restaurant will be given to him now, you only take him to get acquainted with it, help the family restaurant do things, the restaurant is still the second uncle's, and the second uncle will divide it when the time comes." Zou Xiaoxi said, "You don't think too much about Shiro, he didn't go to the restaurant, he just wanted to help you." ”

"I know the kid doesn't have that mind, but I can't help but think about it." Tang Qian'er said, "Shiro has paid time and effort to the restaurant, and if he gives it to others, Shiro will be so uncomfortable." ”

Zou Xiaoxi was puzzled, knowing that Tang Qian'er had entered a dead end again. "Didn't Erlang write to him saying that he would come back in November, and you will talk to him when he comes back."

"It's to talk about it well, it's best if he can stay in charge of the restaurant, and then next year Shiro will go to the grocery store as an apprentice, and the two of them will go to you, and the little cubs at the bottom will think about it slowly." Tang Qian'er said. The restaurant was given to Erlang, and the rest of the sons would not be dissatisfied, but if it was given to Shiro, he was not a big brother, and it was inevitable that others would not have ideas.

At the beginning, it was a joke to say that one of her sons was raised for her mother's family, but now that the eldest brother has another concubine, her father can only accept his fate.
