Lian's don't pick, Su Yu will help her pick it by herself, her family is not yet the time to show her wealth, Su Yu picked all the silver jewelry, picked a silver hairpin and a silver bracelet, picked a pair of earrings for herself, two strings of small silver bells, several things added up to cost twenty taels of silver.

"Fish, my mother still doesn't want it."

Su Yu looked at Lian's eyes and didn't speak.

Lian's daughter couldn't stand it.

"Buy!"

"Shopkeeper, wrap it up."

Su Yu held Lian's arm and smiled brightly. The father and son didn't understand jewelry, so they stood by dryly.

The next thing is to buy a family to eat for the New Year, the Su fish to buy is quite experienced, buy it in a circle, the car has been loaded with a half-ox cart, Su Lao Er has long been surprised, and has long seen the ability of his daughter to buy and buy. Lian's forehead was a little sweaty, and she couldn't figure out how much her daughter had spent today. It cost me 20 taels to buy jewelry just now, more than 10 taels to buy fabrics, and 20 taels to buy pen, ink, paper and inkstone for my son.

She didn't know that pen, ink, paper, and inkstone were so expensive, and her daughter usually bought them, and she didn't ask how much she spent.

I don't know if that's all of this, not to mention how much money my daughter has spent on more than half of the cart to eat on the ox cart.

Until the end of a few streets in the town, Su Yu is still a little unfinished, and when he has time to go to Fucheng to shop, the town is too boring, just a little big, and it will be done in two clicks.

"I've almost bought something, let's go back."

The three of them wiped the sweat from their foreheads with their sleeves, and at the same time breathed a sigh of relief in their hearts, but they were going back.

Su Sheng thought to himself that he would never go shopping with his sister again in the future, otherwise he was afraid that his heart would not be able to stand it.

When I got home, it was already dusk, and the person who built the house was still working, and it was already strange to see that the Su family had bought something from an ox cart. The Su family's house will be built in more than ten days after the year, and the Su family's house is different from what the people in the village have built, and it is not much different from the houses of the big families in the town, but it is smaller than the people in the town. At this time, the village realized that the Su family was different from them, and they could become landlords like this.

On the twenty-ninth day, no one came to work, and it would not start until the third day of the new year, and the ears of Su Yu were a lot quieter.

Tired for more than ten days, these days can be regarded as a good rest, the previous amount of three pigs a day, the family has to be busy until dark, and now it is a little annoying to have a few large vat of lard. Just looking at the amount of oil used by her mother to stir-fry, Su Yu knows that there are not many people who buy it if she sells it, so she has to think of a way.

The remnants of lard residue left over from boiling lard were sold by the Su family to the villagers at the price of a penny and a catty, and they didn't think about making the villagers' money, they just thought about not wasting it.

There are a lot of people in the village who come to Su's house to buy oil residue, although it is left over from oil refining, but in the case that the vast majority of families can't eat meat once in a few months, they have opened meat for the villagers, and there are children at home, and the children's faces are much better.

Su Yu thought about it, and finally thought of making soap, but she didn't remember this ratio very clearly, as if she remembered to use grass and wood gray water, try it first to see if it could be done.

Su Yu is a man of action, he can't sit still when he thinks about it, so he burns some plant ashes and puts it in a basin, pours water into the basin and stirs it, and puts it back in his room to let it settle overnight.

After a night, pour the grass and wood ash water into the pot of boiled lard, and wait for the boil to be almost, pour it into the small wooden box made by his father, put it in the yard and let it take shape naturally, and wait for the afternoon Su Yu to take off the film, as soon as I got started, it didn't seem to be right, I went to play a basin of water and tried it, the foam was very small, and it was greasy, it seemed to be a failure.

She had to think about it, otherwise what would she do with so much lard?

Su Yu didn't let his father be idle, and asked him to make a mold for himself. Although Su Lao Er is not a carpenter, he is better at skill, and the mold of soap is not difficult to make, just a small wooden box with a rectangular row.

By the time Su Yu understood the proportion of soap, it was already the thirtieth year of the Chinese New Year's Eve, and the Lian clan had been rushing to work in the past few days, and before the thirtieth day of the Chinese New Year's Eve, one person rushed out a new set of clothes, and the family could wear new clothes on the morning of the first day of the new year.

Today is the Chinese New Year's Eve, Su Yu stubbornly wants to cook by himself, the father and son seem to be standing not far away like invisible people at this time to listen, of course they want their daughters (sisters) to cook, but they dare not say this.

Lian's family didn't fight with her daughter today, she knew her own craftsmanship.

With permission, Su Yu immediately swelled.

"Mother, you're the best."

Su Yu plans to make all the food he wants to eat during this time, fried small fish, fried pork cutlet, braised pork, sauerkraut fish, seven or eight dishes, Su Yu is still on the rise, and Lian's side has already shouted to stop.

"Almost, you do so much, do you want to eat leftovers every day for the next few days."

Su Yu is right to think about it, anyway, there is time for the New Year, and I will do some one day these days.

"Okay, I'll go see if the eldest brother is done, let's eat when they're done."

After saying that, the man ran out of the stove house.

"Dad, big brother, have you posted it?"

"It's almost there, the girl came just in time, you help my father see if it's right, why do I feel a little crooked."

Su Lao Er stood on the ladder with his body tilted, holding on to one hand and sticking the couplet with the other, and Su Sheng was holding on to it underneath. The couplet was written by Su Sheng, Su Sheng did not study for a long time, and the words can only be regarded as Zhou Zheng.

"Dad, a little to the right."

"So?"

"Yes, it's not crooked."

After pasting the couplet, hanging a pair of red lanterns at the gate of the courtyard, the three of them went back to the stove house to eat.

Serve the eight dishes and a soup on the table, although the house is still in tatters, but it has not affected the good mood of the family at all, the two tigers are burying their heads at the table to eat, in addition to the fish, there are dishes on the table It has in the basin, Su Yu specially gave, New Year's Eve, you have to let it eat something good.

Su Yu went back to his house, took out a small jar of wild wine he had brewed earlier, and poured a glass for everyone.

Several people looked at the red and bright wine in the cup, they were all very novel, Su Lao Er picked up the cup and took a sip, there was a fragrance of grapes, as well as the spicy taste of the wine, the taste was a little strange, but I got used to it after drinking two more sips.

"Come, let's have a toast as a family, and I wish you a better and better year."

The three of them followed the example of Su Yu, picked up the cup and touched it, and one took a small sip.

Lian couldn't help coughing dryly, she couldn't get used to the wine, but she hadn't drunk before.

"Mother, you drink slowly, this wine has to be tasted slowly."

Su Yu, who was sitting on the side, hurriedly patted Lian's back.

"Drink less, don't get drunk then."

"No, mother, this wine is not high, you won't get drunk if you drink a small glass."

Su Lao Er was on the side to help.

"Let my daughter drink some during the New Year, and Brother Sheng will drink more, men, you must always learn to drink some wine."

"Got it, Dad."

Su Sheng had few words as always.

"Dad, mother, I plan to open the shop after fifteen, it's impossible for me to go to see the shop, I have to help at home, no one in our family can take a hand to go, or we will buy someone, right?"
