Ye Xiuyan, Sanya, bean buns, bean dices, and four children, one of them put a small bowl of mutton soup.

The four children were giggling and eating meat and drinking soup with a small bowl, and their little faces were flushed when they drank.

Ye Junlan watched the little girl drink the mutton soup, smiled with relief, and then picked up the chopsticks and ate elegantly.

Lin Jingcheng watched it interestingly, poked his squeaky socket with his elbow, and teased with a smile: "You really want to grab the little girl with me?" Even counting on eating? ”

Ye Junlan glanced at him squint, serious: "Yan girl is young, and she needs nutrition when she grows tall." ”

"You can do it, I'm convinced."

Lin Jingcheng listened to the music and stretched out his thumb to express his admiration.

"Aunt Juan's salted duck eggs are so delicious."

The sword rushed to the salted duck eggs, and ate three of them in one go, still unsatisfied.

"Daddy."

Ye Xiuyan slipped down from the chair, leaned into her father's ear, and whispered, "When are you going to the town to sell salted eggs?" I'll go with you. ”

"Does your mother agree?"

Ye Jian subconsciously glanced at his daughter-in-law.

Ye Xiuyan's playful smile was sly: "Lingyan County has gone, and the mother of Xitang Town agrees." ”

"In the past two days, we will build stables and pull hay."

Ye Jian held the bowl and smiled: "The foal and the ewe's forage for the winter are complete, let's go sell salted eggs." ”

"yes."

Ye Xiuyan was overjoyed: "You can ride a pony to the town to play." ”

"Let's eat."

Wu Juan smiled helplessly, interrupting the whispering of the two masters: "Isn't there anything important to do after eating, eat quickly." ”

"Hee-hee, got it."

Ye Xiuyan playfully stuck out her tongue and slipped back to her place.

After dinner, Wu Juan lit two lamps and candles to illuminate the dining room.

The family sat around the dinner table and listened to Ye Junlan talk about how to artificially cultivate pearls.

Ye Junlan sat in a wheelchair, flipped through the study tour and miscellaneous conversations, found the article introducing artificial breeding, and read it word by word.

"I see."

After listening to it, Wu Juan already had a number in his heart, and picked out two river mussels, one large and one small, from the wooden barrel to demonstrate to the family.

She prepares the tools she needs, uses a knife to pry open the mussels, scrapes off the mantle of the mussels, cuts them into small pieces, and rinses them with salt water for later use.

Then pry open a gap in the mussel, use a wooden stick the thickness of the little finger to prop it up, and then use a slender embroidery needle to pick up a small piece and stuff it into the mantle membrane of the mussel.

A large mussel can be stuffed with 20 to 30 small pieces, and each small piece can grow into a seedless pearl in the shell of the mussel in the next two to three years.

"Mother's hands are so skillful."

Ye Xiuqing saw that she was flying, and after a while, she stuffed a big river mussel, and couldn't help but be amazed.

"Aunt Juan's knife work is really good."

The sword sword's focus was different from hers, and his gaze fell on the small pieces of the same size, thoughtfully.

"Mother, let's divide labor and cooperate."

Ye Xiuyan's brain turned quickly, and she came up with an idea with a smile: "Some people specialize in prying small river mussels and cutting membranes, and some people specialize in inserting pieces into big river mussels, practice makes perfect, our family cooperates tacitly, and the speed will definitely get faster and faster." ”

"Okay."

Wu Juan readily agreed.

"I pry the mussels."

Bean Bao was the first to raise his hand.

"I cut the mantle."

Ye Jian followed.

"We're in charge of the inserts."

The girl was ingenious, and the three Ye Xiuqing sisters, together with Ye Xiuyan, raised their hands in unison.
