Chapter Ninety-Nine: Before the Dragon Boat Festival
When the Jiang family heard Wei Meimei's words, they bluntly said that their house was almost cleaned up.
For Wei Meimei, the rest is too little, right?
But this is exactly what they wanted, Wei Meili only said lightly:
"Sure enough, the sister-in-law is still filial, and she deserves to be the eldest daughter-in-law!
The eldest brother not only bought these four acres of land for the family, showing his filial piety, you are also hardworking at home, filial piety to your in-laws, really amazing! ”
After saying this, Wei Meili also cast an affirmative look at the Jiang family.
This expression directly showed Jiang Shi, and his face turned green.
In this regard, why he is so "diligent" and "filial", only Jiang himself knows.
"Sister-in-law, why don't you take care of these four acres of land. After all, the eldest brother bought it with money! ”
Not to mention how much land her own man and the third family cleaned up, Wei Meili even took the opportunity to propose that the Jiang family continue to show her filial piety.
But Jiang didn't answer these words, she was heartbroken!
What is she wronged?
Today her emotions are really up and down.
was slapped by her mother-in-law before, and now her brain is a lot clearer.
Why, her man spent so much money to buy land for the family, and it was not enough?
Do you still need her to show filial piety and serve these four acres of land?
Don't even think about it!
Looking at Jiang's pursed lips and refusing to communicate, Wei Meili smiled secretly and said no more.
That's all for today, Old Man Mei and Zhang looked at Mei Berry, what good face could they have?
Wei Meili didn't frustrate the old man at all, but continued to speak: "Then the matter is settled, there is still something to be done at the daughter-in-law's house, so go back first." ”
After that, Wei Meili took her daughter by the hand and beckoned Miao to leave.
Just as they were about to step out of the courtyard door, Old Man Mei suddenly called out to them.
Old Man Mei stared at their backs and only asked, "You guys are here today just to work less, aren't you?" That's what it's all about! ”
"Dad, what you said ......" Wei Meili chuckled, turned to look at the people in the old house, and said, "It turns out that to be honest, it is also to sow discord?" What is the name of the person who does not tell the truth? ”
After speaking, Wei Meili didn't look at Old Man Mei's dark face.
She only lowered her eyes and curled the corners of her mocking mouth, turned around and said no more, straightened her waist and whispered to Mei Berry: "Pay attention to your feet, no matter how ripe you are, you can't stand an acquaintance from pit you......"
That's what it's called beating around the bush and scolding people.
***
"Wife, you're awesome!!"
In the evening, when Mei Youqian came back, he listened to his wife tell him everything that happened this afternoon.
The excited, reddened face of Mei Youqian, who was taking a bath, didn't know if it was smoked by the heat or excited.
When he heard the last of his wife's yin and yang weird old Mei family, Mei Youqian yelled "happy" and came out of the bucket directly.
Holding only a long towel to cover her lower body, revealing her sturdy body, Mei Youqian rushed behind Wei Meimei, who was cooking, in three or two steps, and picked up his wife by the waist.
Mom's scolding after the exclamation and his father's laughter were heard in the yard.
"You're going to die!"
"Hey, wife, wood!"
Plum berries fed the mules and cubs grazing, and the expression on her face was indescribable.
It seems that I have eaten some kind of sour dog food.
Mei Berry silently turned her head to stare at her bedroom and began to think: Isn't it good for their family of three to live in one bedroom?
"Alas~" Plum Berry sighed and slipped the grass into the mule's mouth and muttered, "I'm single day by day...... Stimulate! ”
solved the bad things of the old Mei family, and the next day Mei Berry found Mei You with her improved soap recipe.
By the way, I brought some pieces of coarse arrowroot cloth to their house.
"My mother said that this kudzu cloth absorbs sweat and breathes, and the weather is getting hotter, which is a good thing.
However, my mother had no experience in making it for the first time, and the coarse kudzu cloth made was at most used as a towel and curtains, and it was too rough to make clothes. ”
When Mei Berry handed Ge Bu to Aunt San and Mei You, both of them were very curious, they were really rough to the touch, and some of them even had some hands.
But it's really good to take a summer bath when it's wet, and it can rub the ashes.
This is a new discovery of plum berries last night.
"Is there still a fine arrowroot?"
Hearing what Mei Berry said, Mei You immediately thought of fine arrowroot.
"Well, but the production of fine arrowroot cloth is more complicated, my mother said that if the third aunt is okay these days, you can go to the mountains with her in the morning, and then take the third aunt to pick kudzu vines and come back to get it together."
"Okay!" Miao agreed to this matter in one bite, and Mei You didn't need to open his mouth at all.
helped his mother make an appointment with the third aunt, and then Mei Berry and Mei You were busy with the two of them.
The two went out together, and when they entered the mountains, Mei Berry showed him Mei You's recipe for improving soap that he had written.
"Goat's milk soap, flower essential oil soap ......"
Looking at the words written on the yellow paper that were not neat, but they were indeed the words of this era, Mei You was already very surprised.
When she finally read the content, Mei You's eyes at Mei Berry were quite complicated for a while.
"You didn't mean...... Don't you know how to make soap? ”
"I won't do it, but I can theorize~" Mei Berry smiled, not at all weak, "Don't you see that I don't have a specific proportion on this?" Doesn't I have to rely on sister, you to take me to practice and explore~"
The system gives a proportional nature, but the plum berry was not added when it was written.
Laughing to death, she seems to have a rigorous person with that brain?
Isn't this a collapse in front of the heroine?
She writes like this, and the heroine has to be suspicious, not to mention that she writes all the proportions.
"Goat's milk or something, is there anyone in the village who raises sheep? It's okay to find a chance to get some. ”
Mei You has begun to think about the possibility of making this recipe for plum berries, "Flower essential oil soap, mainly flower essential oil, this thing is very difficult to get, about the extraction of flower essential oil, will you?" ”
"Theoretically, yes, but in practice I can't ...... it"
Mei Berry scratched her head, and secretly scolded that the system was not authentic, so why don't you give her the method of extracting essential oils together?
"I haven't tried it either, and this one is probably better."
Mei You looked at the soap in this recipe, looked at Mei Berry's attitude was much gentler, raised his hand and touched the top of Mei Berry's hair, and said, "Don't worry, I will definitely take you to make a lot of money!" ”
In the following days, the weather gradually warmed up, and Meiyou and Meiberry have been adjusting the soap ratio.
In the blink of an eye, there are less than five days left before the Dragon Boat Festival.
Plum Berry and Mei You's production of upgraded soap has been temporarily halted due to the arrival of the festival.
Because the plum berry family's holiday snack business is about to start.
"In addition to zongzi, do you also want to make strip cakes and mung bean cakes?" Plum Berry was stunned.
"Yes, we didn't hide this zongzi business from the outside world. Your dad also bought a lot of glutinous rice for this and came back to confuse everyone.
I looked at it, and it was better to make some snacks and sell them. ”
Wei Meili doesn't like to eat glutinous rice every day.
When the new rice comes down this year, their family will definitely spend a lot of silver to buy a lot of rice.
"Mom, do you have enough manpower? You're a dumpling and a pastry. ”
"Ah, I found the third brother and sister, as well as Aunt Wang's eldest daughter-in-law Li Cuihua next door.
When the time comes, settle the wages, or make a part of their food, or keep it for holiday gifts. ”
Forget about zongzi, but the price of tiaotou cake and mung bean cake is not cheap.
When the time comes, especially a new daughter-in-law like Li Cuihua, she will definitely go back to her parents' house with her husband before the holiday, and it will definitely save face with these snacks!
In fact, the arrival of Li Cuihua also has a story.
Aunt Wang is really troubled by her daughter-in-law, although she is well-behaved and gentle, she is afraid of seeing people all day long.
However, whose little daughter-in-law can't not see people every day, right?
No, I heard that Wei Meili was short of manpower recently, so she simply recommended her daughter-in-law.
It doesn't matter if she earns money or not, she can meet people.
"Are the bean pastes in the mung bean cake and the strip cake all beans in my space?"
Mei Berry thought about asking this, but Wei Mei glanced at Mei Berry and said, "Such good beans are directly taken out to eat and sell?" Even the glutinous rice for dim sum is bought, and these beans are also bought separately. ”
"Oh, yes."
Wei Meili suddenly remembered something.
"Before the Dragon Boat Festival, you delivered the zongzi, and asked your father to take you to the county by boat that day."
"Huh?"
Seeing that Mei Berry hadn't reacted yet, Wei Meili said again: "The silver ticket you took back is not exchanged for silver?" When the time comes, you and your dad will buy more things in the county.
There are too many acquaintances in the town, and it is easy to attract attention if you buy more food and cloth, but you don't have so many scruples when you go to the county with your father to buy things.
We have so much silver, what do we do if we don't spend it? ”
Plum Berry: It's finally going to cost money!
Finally a new character is coming, ahahahaha
