Chapter 87
With the addition of Lanfang's mother and daughter, the life of Shen Qingning's family became much easier.

She doesn't have to go to the county town with her mother to set up a stall every day. Li's heart aches for her daughter who gets up too early, so she sometimes lets Shen Meixiang go with her. Li prepares things at home, drives the carriage to the old house to pick up Shen Meixiang will do.

Shen Dahe puts most of his energy into the fields, and sells bean curd sticks in other counties. Now he likes the sales work of this kind of short-distance business trip. Every time he negotiates a shop and agrees to sell his bean curd sticks, the sense of accomplishment is not good. What farming can bring.

Lan Fangniang can basically do the housework with a few half-grown children.

Although some people in other counties have started to make bean curd sticks, but the Shen family has a large quantity and a drying room.In the first half of the year in Jiping County, there were very few days. People like Zhu Ji stopped making bean curd sticks for a long time, and they couldn't work without days.

Shen Qingning, who was at home, worked in the workshop for the first half of the day, and basically rested for the second half of the day.

Lan Fangniang came early in the morning every day, and first took the donkey to grind beans. When Lan Hui came, she had ground a lot of beans.

Lan Hui took over the hand-ground beans, and Lan Fangniang began to wash the milk. Shen Qingning helped on the side, and poured the washed soybean milk into the iron pot.

When Lan Hui finished grinding the beans, it was time to come over and light a fire to cook the pulp. Shen Qingning and Lan Hui worked together to make the bean curd skin.

After washing the starch, Lan Fangniang turned around and started to make rice noodles. Lan Hui admired Lan Hui's agility. This work was done faster than her own mother and daughter!
Rice noodles can be sun-dried or dried, and can be stored for a long time. When needed, soak them in water and cook them in advance, and then scald them when you eat them.

Everyone cooperated very well, and the production capacity was greatly improved.

The Shen family is now used to eating lunch at about the same time every day, and when it's meal time, Lan Fangniang, who has been busy all morning, goes back with her meal.

Qingxiu tried to give her a bowl of each meal, and she went directly to the kitchen to pick up half of the bowls and take them back, "It's agreed, I can't take advantage of your family, this big bowl is too much."

After that, Qingxiu didn't add another bowl, but every time Lan Fangniang's bowl was packed firmly.

When Li Lanfang came over, there were a lot less things to do in the workshop, except that it took some time to remove the yuba skin, and drying the yuba and rice noodles.

After all these are done, the next thing will be Lan Fang's monthly subscription, cleaning up and cleaning all kinds of things.

Apart from being inferior to her mother in strength, Lan Fang is no worse than her mother in other things.

The workshop was cleaned up inside and out, and the beans for the next day were also soaked, so there was no need for Mrs. Li to worry about a penny.

Sometimes she finished her work early, and instead of going back, she ran to the vegetable field in the backyard to clean up the vegetable field and clean the pigsty.

Qingxiu stopped her twice, but she didn't listen at all, "It's agreed that one day is a day of help, so there is no reason to go back for half a day. If there is no such work, we will not feel at ease with the wages."

Mrs. Li knew her mother's temper, so she didn't stop her, she just wanted to pay more during the Chinese New Year.

Mrs. Li now gets up early to set up a stall, and sells out in most of the morning and goes home.

After lunch, the two daughters pushed her to bed to catch up on sleep, and they slept for another hour after hugging Xiao Miao.

I don't know how much easier this day is than before, and the whole look is different.

On this day, after lunch, Shen Qingning took four-year-old Shen Zheng to the village to digest food. This little guy has started to grow round at a speed visible to the naked eye these days, and no matter what happens, he will become a little fat man.

For example, Shen Qingning also took him with him when he ran laps, and they didn't run in the village, there were so many people in the village, they would always point and point when they watched, why did this half-grown girl bring a little brother to run around in the village!
When the two of them left the village, they went to a place where no one was around. Shen Qingning found an opportunity to practice her unknown stick technique, and also taught her younger brother the ability to hit a hundred shots.

Shen Zheng was at a time when he was full of energy, and he was overjoyed to be able to go crazy outside the village with his second sister.

Shen Qingning practiced the stick technique behind a few trees, and Shen Zheng looked for a rock and aimed at a tree to practice his head there.

The non-interference between the siblings is somewhat harmonious and peaceful.

"Ouch!"

"what!"

Two exclamations interrupted Shen Qingning's movements.

"Which bad boy is throwing stones at people, let me out!"

The voice was fierce, but Shen Qingning could still recognize that it was Shen Ming's voice.

She came out with a stick, only to see Shen Ming looking at Shen Zheng angrily.

"You little bastard got on my head?"

Not far away, a girl was running towards the village. Shen Qingning was not very familiar with the girls in the village, and she couldn't tell who it was just from her back.

Shen Ming saw Shen Qingning's eyes flicker, thinking about the Gao's family in the county town, his heart couldn't help but ache twice.

For some reason, she didn't dare to scold Shen Qingning, she just gave Shen Zheng a glance and left.

"Second sister."

Shen Qingning came over and patted him on the head, "Why did you hit someone?"

Shen Zheng patted his head and laughed, he was just throwing it around for fun, but he didn't expect that there was someone behind the tree.

"Second Sister, why is he hugging the Big Three, his eldest sister?"

.........

Shen Qingning was embarrassed, how did she know, she had never hugged her in two lifetimes, so asking her was like asking for nothing.

"Who are the three strong men?"

"It's the top three!"

Well, she's not interested in knowing either.

"Let's go, let's go back. From now on, we are only allowed to throw that one tree, and no random aiming is allowed."

"Oh~"

When the siblings arrived home, Qingxiu was doing needlework while warming up in the main room.

Seeing the younger brothers and sisters coming back, I stretched out my hand to greet them, "It's cold outside, come here to warm up."

Shen Qingning first went to the kitchen to touch two pieces of glutinous rice cakes and baked them on the brazier with tongs.

"Didn't you two go out to digest food? Why did you eat again when you came back?"

Shen Qingling turned over the glutinous rice cake, "Such a small piece of roasted glutinous rice cake doesn't take up your stomach, isn't it okay? Roast it for fun."

I was at my grandmother’s house in my previous life. At that time, I thought that the most delicious way to eat glutinous rice cakes was to bake them on the brazier. Watching a piece of hard glutinous glutinous rice cakes soften a little bit. This process is also very challenging. Impatient people can’t eat it. .

Qingxiu looked at Shen Qingning who bowed her head and baked glutinous rice cakes, "Why do you say that I have such a good life all of a sudden? Is this the eldest lady of the landlord's family you mentioned? She doesn't do any work, just embroiders and drinks at home tea?"

There wasn't much work in the afternoon, so Shen Meixiang took Qingxiu's job of cleaning the kitchen after lunch.

Li Lanfang also helped her take care of the vegetable garden in the back yesterday, and she felt that it was broad daylight for a while, but since the holidays were not over, there was nothing to do for her to embroider!

"Where is this going? Our family only has seven acres of land, what kind of landlord is it, and you get up early every morning to cook and do homework, and wash clothes in the cold, so you feel blessed?"
