Chapter 47
In this way, those cured meats can last longer, and it also indicates that there will be more days when meat can be eaten all the time.
Before the winter solstice, Cui Shun'er held a family banquet in advance to celebrate the completion of the smokehouse.
On the dining table, there are meat and vegetables, a rich assortment, adults and children can eat happily, and the whole family can rarely talk happily.
Cui Shun'er was very happy, and said to Pei Zheng with a happy smile: "This smokehouse can be built, and Zheng'er has contributed a lot. If you hadn't found a skilled carpenter, you wouldn't have saved our family a lot of money, and The most important thing is that the workmanship is so good that it completely exceeded my original expectations!"
Ma Qiufen said proudly: "Mother, my family has always been able to do it, and this time, Mother is right!"
Pei Zheng blushed shyly, lowered his head in embarrassment, and said hesitantly: "Mother, I really want to give credit, thanks to the noble man who introduced me to the carpenter."
Cui Shun'er smiled and asked: "I wanted to ask you that day, which noble person is it? You have to go and thank you some other day."
Pei Zheng originally wanted to hide it, but with a mellow nature, he couldn't take credit for it alone, so he let go and told the truth: "Actually, the identity of that noble man is the Master Xue Zheng of the Imperial College, and he has helped him several times before. Our family..."
In the end, Pei Zheng's voice became softer because he noticed that Cui Shun'er's face suddenly turned cold.
He touched his mouth, wondering if he said something wrong?
Cui Shun'er really didn't want to have any ties with Pei Xian, but that man still liked to post to their family.
The smoker room was finished, and she couldn't blame the boss because Pei Xian was the middleman, so she hurriedly found a topic to cover up Pei Xian's appearance.
Pei Zheng wisely didn't mention it again.
After the family had eaten, the night was dark.
Cui Shun'er washed her body and went back to the bedroom alone.
She lay on the cold bed, pulled off the quilt to wrap herself tightly, but no matter how warm the bed was, as long as she thought about the past with Pei Xian, she would feel extremely chilled.
more than 20 years ago, the imperial court was in turmoil, and every time there was a drought, it was said that it was opening granaries to release grain, but there were poor people suffering from famine everywhere, and no matter how much grain was passed down, there was not much distribution.
The Cui family was originally from a poor family, with both old and young, and every mouth was waiting for food.
Cui Shun'er is the eldest daughter, she is sensible and caring, she would rather starve herself for two days to eat bark, and give that ration to her relatives.
Later, the matchmaker said that the old Pei family in Xiahe Village had an only son, and he was willing to marry a daughter-in-law for his own son with a load of rice as a dowry gift.
In such a difficult situation, a load of rice obviously made the Cui family overjoyed, and when they asked about the situation of the only son of the Pei family, they were told that he was a fool.
Cui's parents stared wide-eyed, and after thinking about it, they agreed to the marriage.
Cui Shun'er is filial, loves her parents and younger sister Cui Yan'er, stepped forward with tears in her eyes, and is willing to marry the stupid eldest son of the Pei family.
And at that time, she had a sweetheart, Gu Jing, the two were childhood sweethearts, and they made a private decision for life early.
Even after marrying into Pei's family, Cui Shun'er shed tears in the middle of the night countless times, missing her relationship with Gu Jing, but within two months, she heard that Gu Jing was about to marry his younger sister, Cui Yan'er.
She smiled and blessed on the surface, but her heart was bitter.
Gu Jing's grandfather was a landlord, and the Gu family had a little property. After Cui Yan'er married, she had no worries about food and clothing, and lived a pretty good life.
It's a pity that she always thinks about helping her, but never thinks about where her sister's dowry comes from.
She is in charge of the big and small affairs of the family with one hand, takes care of the foolish husband in every possible way, raises the children by herself, and earns money to support the family for her husband to study, and at the same time subsidizes her mother's family.
At that time, although my husband had his head burned because of the high fever when he was a child, he couldn't bear his handsome appearance and clear voice, otherwise she would not be willing to have sex with him and give birth to several couples of children.
About ten years ago, my husband went to the mountain to dig wild vegetables, but was stared at by wild animals. While fleeing for his life, he fell off a cliff and fell into a coma.
Therefore, he fell into a coma for more than half a month.
Cui Shun'er washed her face with tears every day, begging the Bodhisattva to bless her.
My husband finally woke up. What is worth celebrating is that he is healthy and smart. That's when he started studying for the scientific examination. After he went to Beijing to catch the examination, he never came back.
Everyone said that he was dead, and Cui Shun'er in the previous life also slowly accepted this fact.
In fact, at that time, she was not good to the foolish husband. At most, she regarded him as a partner to live with, and she cooked and washed clothes for him every day, but he was very dependent on her.
As time goes by, married life naturally gets used to it.
Memories come to an abrupt end.
Cui Shun'er reached out to touch the empty pillow, smiled bitterly, and murmured in a low voice: "It's clear that you've been away for thousands of days and nights, and I'm used to sleeping alone, why do you still appear to disturb my mind..."
As the night flew by, Cui Shun'er was so preoccupied that she hardly closed her eyes.
At dawn, Cui Shun'er simply lifted the quilt, got up with dark circles under her eyes, and couldn't sleep anyway, so she might as well finish today's work ahead of time.
It's already mid-winter, the sky is cold and the ground is freezing, and my grandchildren are sleepy, and they only get up at three poles in the sun.
After Cui Shun'er finished her breakfast, she thought that the cured meat left in the smokehouse last night hadn't been smoked yet, so she went over to have a look, wondering how to get the ingredients for the cured meat.
A few days ago, she chatted with the owner of the spice shop and heard that cypress branches are the first choice for smoking bacon.
Even though there are some cypresses planted on the side of the road in the village, in such a cold weather, the villagers must pick up the useful branches early.
After much deliberation, Cui Shun'er made up her mind and decided to quietly go to the back mountain to chop some.
Although it was forbidden to hunt in the mountains before, let's cut down some tree assemblies.
Breakfast is simple porridge, pickled vegetables and porridge. After eating a bowl of hot porridge, the whole family will be warmed up.
Cui Shun'er picked up the logging tool and was about to go out. Pei Zheng, who had fed the chickens and ducks, saw it and asked, "Mom, where are you going?"
Cui Shuner briefly explained the situation.
Pei Zheng frowned, and said worriedly: "Mother, I'll go with you, the mountains in winter are not safe, and there are too many people, so I can bring more wood back."
Cui Shun'er nodded in agreement.
It just so happened that the two brothers Pei Maimai also had enough to fill their stomachs, so they offered to go up the mountain with them.
There are many people and strength, Cui Shun'er and Pei Zheng are in charge of felling, while Pei Maimai and Pei Xiaoyu are in charge of picking up scattered twigs on the ground.
After a while, the cypress branches were piled up to the brim.
Pei Zheng was tall and tall, he was said to be five big and three thick, but all of them were strong and powerful tendons, and he could withstand a hundred catties of firewood by himself.
The two brothers Pei Maimai also hugged some branches with all their strength, while Cui Shun'er walked at the back, naturally she was worried about the two little guys who followed.
