Chapter 17: Making Money

Because there are two sick numbers at home, the drizzle in the world refuses to stop.

Ye Qing didn't have time to visit other stores, in the grocery store.

I bought a new hat, an oil lamp, a jar of lamp oil, a plain snack, and a few cakes.

I saw that there was a meat stall that was closing the stall, and I thought of Ye Zhengliang and Ye Zhenghe.

Pointing to the meat on the stall: "Boss, how do you sell this meat?" ”

"Yo, girl, the fat thirteen, the thin eleven, you hurry up, I have something in this house, I have to close the stall."

Ye Qing asked for a piece of fat, a small piece of lean meat, and then remembered the free pig bone that was the favorite of the crossing woman, so he smiled and said, "The boss has that bone, bring a few." ”

"Yes, yes." As he spoke, the boss hurriedly took out a few bones from the barrel under the stall, connected to this piece of pork liver.

said: "In the past, I had to collect money, but the girl bought a lot of meat today, so I'll give it to you!" ”

What you want is to give it away for nothing, Ye Qing said in his heart.

After paying a total of eighty yuan, he hurried back along the mountain road where he came.

As soon as she walked on her front feet, a woman holding an oil-paper umbrella flew up.

"Boss, how much meat did that person buy just now?"

"Eighty Wen, what's wrong?"

The woman was holding an oil-paper umbrella, looking at Ye Qing's figure with complicated eyes, and disappeared on the bridge in a flash, and when she stomped her foot, a few drops of muddy water on the bluestone pavement splashed on her goose-yellow skirt.

"Little slut!"

With a twist of his waist, he went to a cloth shop not far away.

"Auntie, grandmother, Ye Qing's little slut just came to town."

"Our family can't afford to raise a bottomless pit with three rooms, and there is no business on a rainy day today, so close the door quickly!"

"Everyone has already left, guess what I just saw, Ye Qing bought eighty wen pork."

The woman put away the oil-paper umbrella and wiped the mud from the splash with a handkerchief.

"What? Can the eldest sister still keep money for the third room? ”

When the Wang family heard that Ye Qing was gone, he was just relieved, and he was shocked when he heard that Ye Qing had bought pork for eighty wen!

Then the words blurted out made Mrs. Ye dissatisfied, and she quickly shut up.

Li had five taels of silver in her hand, and she personally revealed the past.

Could it be that Aunt Ye's temperament has changed drastically, and she didn't come to the door to ask for money?

This is not quite in line with Aunt Ye's character!

Old Mrs. Ye's eyes also flashed, and she said, "Let the second child go back another day and get me a few clothes." ”

Wang hurriedly said: "Okay mother, when the Xianggong comes back, I will go and say." ”

Ye Qing's feet were frozen and unconscious.

When I was a child, I learned in textbooks, the spring breeze in February is like scissors, and I really experienced it myself to know that the power of the spring rain in March is not far off!

The cloth socks on the feet have already been soaked, and when walking on this slippery mountain road, only straw sandals can be non-slippery, and the body is already slightly sweating, but the feet are still frozen and numb.

It was about ten miles back and forth, and when Ye Qing returned home, his feet were already numb.

Ye Zhengliang watched Ye Qing come back wet, and said distressedly: "Sister Qing, thank you for your hard work!" ”

Ye Qing looked at his emaciated cheeks and said with a smile: "What's hard, it's not hard." ”

"Liangzi, A-Niang is awake!"

Ye Zhengliang lowered his eyes and said, "No, she is still asleep, and she doesn't have a fever!" ”

Ye Qing took out the snacks in the basket, put them on the table and said, "Liangzi, you and eldest brother eat first, and I'll cook the rice." ”

Ye Zhengliang's eyes were staring at the dim sum, and his eyes didn't blink.

It was as if there was a hook on the snack that hooked his gaze.

Ye Qing touched his messy hair, feeling a little sad, this cheapest dim sum can make Liangzi so happy, it seems that it is extremely easy to support a family.

There were no clocks or hourglasses, and there was no sun to watch when it rained.

It's long past dinner.

Ye Qing cut a piece of pork belly, changed the knife and slice it, first fried the oil with lard over low heat, and then put the vegetable moss that he had washed, and simply burned it, and at this time the hot cakes in the small pot were also hot.

asked Ye Zhengliang to take the food and go to the side room to eat with Ye Zhenghe.

I fed Li some spiritual spring water again, watched her eyelashes flicker, and was about to shout in surprise, but saw that she had regained her composure.

I was a little disappointed and returned to the stove room, and when I entered the fat meat with chopsticks, I suddenly felt that it was very sweet and fragrant.

Ye Qing used to be in the martial arts team, the recipes were all provided by nutritionists, and the ingredients were also organic, of course, fatty meat was impossible to eat, as soon as this fatty pork belly was eaten, Ye Qing was amazed.

It's delicious!

I bought the cakes in the town and ate the first delicious meal I had when I came to this Dayong Dynasty.

Ye Qing took his own woodcutter again and split the big bone into several pieces to make sure that the bone marrow was exposed.

The pot was filled with a few scoops of cold water, and the big bones were directly put into the pot, and it boiled for about a few minutes, without any seasoning, and skimmed off the foam.

Put the firewood at the bottom of the pot into the earthen stove where the medicine is boiled, and if nothing else, the production of pottery alone is very good.

A huge clay pot, tied with iron wire, is sold for only 20 wen, and only 10 wen if you don't use a wire hoop.

It's not pottery that's expensive, it's iron.

Place the washed bones in a clay pot and fill it with water.

Put a few large pieces of wood and let it burn slowly.

Ye Qing quickly washed all the pots and bowls with his hands and feet, and moved a wooden pier, so that he had time to calm down, and studied his own small gourd while watching the fire.

The small gourd is usually swarthy and inconspicuous, and only when it is full of water will it be green and moist.

For example, now, it is drizzling outside, and the little gourd is absorbing the rainwater in wisps.

Ye Qing walked back and forth in the rain, and he could feel the joy of the little gourd when he absorbed water.

Although she doesn't know the origin of this little gourd, the little gourd is absolutely no harm to her.

And relying on the small gourd, he also gave birth to green vegetables and moss, and earned a sum of money that really belongs to him.

Yejia Village is leaning on Furong Mountain, and there is naturally no shortage of firewood, and the firewood that is split into the thickness of an arm is just enough to fill in the earthen stove, and soon the boiling water bubbles are gurgling out of the clay pot with wire hoops.

Ye Qing stared at the endless blisters intently, and only then did he leave a piece of firewood, and let the charcoal fire under him exert the heat of this firewood to the end.

Next, just keep this stick burning, and wait until the evening to have a rich pot of bone broth.

Ye Qing got up and smeared the meat with salt and hung it on the hook of the stove, after thinking about it, he still felt uneasy, so he took it off again, washed an empty clay pot, dried the moisture, and put the salted meat into the clay pot one by one.

Just in case, if there is another character like Aunt Ye, she can't afford to gamble.

This rain rained for three or four days.

When Ye Qing was about to carry the basket on his back and prepare to go up the mountain to pick vegetables, Ye Erbo came back with his old carriage.
