He couldn't help laughing a long time ago.

It is normal for people like He Laosan to have such thoughts that would rather suffer their own losses than be exposed to the glory of others.

She had been worried about whether He Laosan would betray Ah Che before.

She really didn't know the father of this body!

"Well, okay, I'll talk to him the next time I meet him."

Among the few, only He Zao got along best with Ah Che, so she agreed effortlessly.

"Dad, what about buying duck eggs?"

He Laosan looked at Chen.

The latter paused for a pair of eager eyes at Shang Hezao, scratched his head with a needle, and buried his head again: "Anyway, the money is earned by you, you can do whatever you want, just a little, don't waste it, you have to eat the duck eggs if you buy them!" Our family is not a good family. ”

He had already agreed with a smile.

The famous Songhua eggs in later generations could not be delicious.

The only thing she has to worry about now is how to prevent Ah Che from leaking out in front of Sanfang. Where did the recipe for making Songhua eggs come from? And where did the four arithmetic that she taught the Four Treasures come from!

She's all faking his name!

The next day, He had already taken five taels of silver and went to the town, accompanied by He Laosan, and the others followed Chen up the mountain to pinch the honeysuckle.

One of the biggest benefits of separating from the upper room is that He Laosan and the Chen family are finally not so busy, and they can finally help a few children.

Seeing He Zao skillfully turning around the street, and finally came to a family in the south of the town, this family seemed to raise ducks, and the quacking of ducks could be heard from the yard from a distance.

"Early?" He Laosan asked hesitantly: "Are you here to buy duck eggs?" ”

He Zao nodded: "Yes, it will be cheaper to buy duck eggs directly from the sample duck farmers." ”

Of course He Laosan knew this, but he was used to buying things at Cui Kee's grocery store, and they also had this duck egg.

It doesn't seem like a good thing to get through the door like this, right?

He was a little undecided.

He was not in a hurry to leave, he stood still and looked at He Laosan, and sighed slightly: "Dad, you want to ask why we don't go to my aunt's house, right?" ”

He Laosan rubbed his hands and smiled very honestly, which seemed to be a little weak-hearted.

He Zao explained to him in detail: "Dad, first of all, let's buy a lot, my aunt's small grocery store can't eat, she still has to come to these duck farmers to buy, and then she sells it to us, my aunt sells ours, definitely won't ask for more money, since you can't make money, then why bother so much, it's better for us to buy it directly from the source!" ”

He Zao smiled with crooked eyebrows, and he was kind: "Besides, our family has just gone through such an embarrassing thing, Dad, you want to see your aunt and brother, I don't want to see it!" ”

She gaged and acted like a little daughter.

He Laosan was stunned, then sighed heavily and whispered: "Then let's not go, let's buy it here." ”

He clenched his fists, and even though he couldn't say anything, he was still uneasy.

He had already pretended not to see it, and knocked on the door in front of him.

There are some things that are useless to talk about, and they can only be subtly solved with practical actions, and then take the opportunity to break them.

The negotiation went very smoothly, He Zao asked for a few thousand duck eggs at once, this is a big business, the duck farmers were very generous and a little cheaper, and finally negotiated the price, which was a total of five taels of silver, to buy two thousand five hundred duck eggs, plus three hundred.

Because there are not so many for the time being, the duck farmers promised that when the ducks have enough in the past few days, they will be sent to Lujia Village together.

He Laosan was very surprised: "Early, what are you doing with these old ones, thousands of pieces, can they be sold out?" If we can't sell it out, we won't be able to eat it! It's a hot day, and if you can't eat it, it's time to spoil it! ”

He Zao smiled slightly: "Dad, don't worry, after making Songhua eggs, even if it is hot, it can be stored for a year, and it will definitely not be broken." ”

He Laosan frowned, obviously not convinced.

He Zao took him to buy ten catties of soda ash and ten catties of fine salt.

Nowadays, the salt eaten by ordinary people is big green salt, rough, mixed colors, He Zao is afraid that the taste of Songhua eggs made with this green salt will be discounted, so he ruthlessly bought the finest fine white salt, very small crystals, and modern salt.

He Laosan was so distressed that he twitched: "Morning, this salt can be eaten, what are you doing to buy this expensive one, it's all wasted." ”

Fine salt is three times the price of green salt.

He Zao only smiled, not ready to explain.

The materials for making Songhua eggs are simple and easy to obtain, in addition to soda ash and salt, there are only quicklime and plant ash left, and both of them are available to the He family.

Lujia Village walks five or six miles inside, passes through two hillsides, there is a big ash kiln behind, around this ash kiln, gradually formed a village, the name is called "Lime Village", as the name suggests, this village is out of slaked lime.

He has not been to it for a long time, but I heard that there are very few people in that village, and they live in caves, which are warm in winter and cool in summer, and very strong, because of the mountain, the ancestors of Lujia Village have developed caves in the mountains, as houses, and the light in the caves is very dark, so when there are conditions, people come out and start to build houses, which is a far more comfortable living environment than caves.

However, when there is heavy snow in winter, and the tigers and beasts in the mountains come out to feed, those villages close to the mountains will hide in the caves to avoid for a period of time, just like Lujia Village, every household has a cave left by their ancestors behind the Lime Village Mountain, some of which are deserted, but they can still live in people.

The He family owns two caves. When the family was separated, if it weren't for the empty yard of Uncle He's house, maybe the third room would have been driven to live in the cave.

Because of this, they are very close to the lime village, and every household has a few lime blocks, which are used to write and draw lines, and some have lime powder, which is sprinkled outside their yards to ward off people who have just passed away - in the countryside, people believe that people will become ghosts after death, and these ghosts will float into the homes of people who have been friends before death, and quicklime powder can resist ghosts.

This has also led to a very interesting phenomenon, in Wuxian Town, if you see a circle of lime powder sprinkled around the outside of the courtyard, you will know that this family has just passed away a relative!

Grass ash is the fertilizer needed for farming, and it is even more necessary.

He Zao went to the iron shop to get a few iron tools, a straight wire, wound around the head into a circle the size of a duck egg, to ensure that when the duck eggs are placed, the duck eggs will not fall from the middle.

After the separation, there were not so many urns in the third room, and He Zao bought five potbelly jars.

He Laosan nagged a few words and said: "I really use this, I want to go to your father, your father was a good hand at making altars when he was young!" ”

He Zao glanced at him meaningfully: "Dad, there is milk and the eldest lady, do you really think we can be white." If we give money, my father is really willing to ask for it? So let's not embarrass you. ”

He Laosan moved his lips, but his eyes darkened, and he didn't say anything more.

He Zao said very reasonably, for the sake of a few jars, don't let the old house quarrel again.
