The salted fish couple is fleeing famine

Chapter 109 Spring Ploughing

Apart from the emperor, Heiwa and Cuihua are the happiest about the outcome of such negotiations. They are so satisfying and worthy of national celebration.

It will be the time of the year's spring plowing, and Cuihua returned to Dali Village with her children and servants. One of their three villages will be used to raise seedlings and grow peppers this year.

At the end of last year, her family bought another [-] acres of wasteland near Zhuangzi to grow broad beans. The demand for bean paste will be even greater this year.

For pepper seedlings, this year, apart from Huangzhuang, there is also the queen's mother's family. Mrs. Gao has made a lot of reservations, her mother's family, husband's family, and old villagers. Cuihua agreed to all the questions.

Last year, I got a big red envelope. Steward Li built a very beautiful courtyard house. Aunt Li adopted a pair of two-year-old twin girls in the Abandoned Baby Hall. The two little girls are very cute. Now Aunt Li is full of energy every day. The daughter earns the dowry.

This year's seedling scale is too large, Cuihua is not at ease, and plans to live in Dali Village for two months, the second and third rooms, and Lao Yuantou also returned to the village.

Seeing her daughter returning to the village, Mrs. Zhang was overjoyed. She hugged Xiaoshitou and came to visit every day. Xiaoshitou played with her two cousins.

"Mom, let's go and see the baa!" Xiao Liu was still thinking about the sheep that had pissed him countless times and was slaughtered during the Chinese New Year. However, at the beginning of the year, a new lamb came online again.

Let Chunya, Xiaya and a few strong women take a few cubs to see the small animals in the village.

The older children will not have such a good life, and they will stay in the uncle's house to study.

"Is the second sister-in-law and third sister-in-law's pregnancy okay? I brought some bird's nest this time and gave them a share. If you eat bird's nest during pregnancy, the baby's skin will be better!"

Cuihua sent a lot of things to the two sisters-in-law and sister Yuan during her pregnancy, and brought a lot back this time.

Mrs. Zhang curled her lips: "No matter how much you give away to others, they haven't said a good word to you. What are you doing with this money?"

Cuihua was speechless: "This tonic is eaten by the mother, isn't it grown on your grandchildren?"

Mrs. Zhang was annoyed: "Who knows who got it? You haven't seen it. Niu Xi'er and Niu Changshui are now eating, dressing and dressing up, but they are the young master and lady of the landlord's house. The silk materials you gave They didn’t make a body for your nephew, but gave it to their own nephew and niece!”

"Not to mention the food. After pregnancy, the stewed chicken and fish are never without meat. I don't know, I thought our family made a lot of money!"

"Your second brother was so angry that he lived in the town for a long time. He always ate at your elder brother's house when he came home. He said he didn't want to go back. I don't know if his family's surname is Hu or Niu."

"Have you reached this point yet? To be honest, mother, if it's really a matter of money, it's easy to say, and I can understand it. The second sister-in-law is a bit obsessed with her natal family now."

"It's not just about money. Your second brother is mainly chilling. His own sons are put in your house, and his wife doesn't care about them. Let alone your second brother, he is so focused on picking up his nephews and nieces. "

Cuihua frowned, she had seen someone who supported her mother's family, but she had never seen such a foolish one who didn't care about men and their own sons, isn't this lack of heart?

Sister Yuan, with her big belly, took Ding Doudou by the hand and came to play with Xiaowu and Xiaoliu. The little guy didn't remember his aunt and brother very much, so he had to get to know him again.

They stayed for lunch together, this would be the season when wild vegetables were in abundance, and the women came back with a big basket of shepherd's purse.

Cuihua made: shepherd's purse scrambled eggs, shepherd's purse tofu soup, shepherd's purse cake, shepherd's purse wonton, shepherd's purse mixed with sesame oil.

The table was full of green, Xiao Wu looked at it and frowned: "Mother, eat meat!"

Cuihua said solemnly: "It's too late to kill the pig today. We don't have any meat to eat, so we can only eat these. We can only have the meat when we kill the pig tomorrow. Do you want to wait until tomorrow to eat?"

Xiao Wu didn't want to, he ran in the fields all morning, he was already hungry, so he could only dig a spoonful of wontons to eat, um, it seemed to taste pretty good.

Xiaoshi ate it with relish, which was much better than his mother's craftsmanship, and the balls were also delicious.

Seeing that the two older brothers were eating deliciously, Ding Doudou and Xiao Liu were not to be outdone, and ate big mouthfuls.

Mrs. Zhang looked at the boys with a smile: "There is someone making samples, so you don't even need to feed them!"

Xiaowu and Xiaoliu started to eat their own food when they were less than one year old. Every time they ate, Cuihua patiently asked: "What kind of vegetables do you want to eat? You can point them out, and mother will pick them up for you."

Although they are boiled unsalted vegetables, there are three or four types of vegetables for each meal, and the three meals have to be rotated, so Xiao Wu and Xiao Liu know a lot of vegetables since they were very young.

It is more delicious to eat with her own hands. Now they can use spoons. Although they often scoop them everywhere, she is not used to this problem of feeding.

"Mother, don't chase after them to feed them, let them eat by themselves."

"You think it's your family, how can adults have so much time, wait for them to finish their meal slowly, then I can't delay you for half an hour."

"The pediatrician said that children need to train their hands-on habits. They need to use their brains and hands frequently. Even if they are slow, they can eat by themselves, which is better than you force-feed them."

Sister Yuan and Mrs. Zhang were stunned when they heard the words. They both have the habit of feeding, and they often dislike their children eating slowly and not being serious when eating, so they want to finish feeding quickly, otherwise, the food will be completely cold. .

"Then I can fool you. Let them warm the dishes with hot water. If they get cold, what are you afraid of? Just change them, big sister, it's not like your family doesn't have maids and women, so you just take care of Doudou's food."

The villain Ding Doudou heard his aunt say his name, looked up from the rice bowl, and smiled at them: "Mother, it's delicious!"

Cuihua greatly praised them: "Eat slowly, the child who eats the best meal today can reward a piece of biscuit, delicious and crunchy biscuit!"

As soon as the reward came out, a few boys put their heads down and worked hard. They had eaten biscuits and had a good time.

Sister Yuan laughed and said, "I'll bring it to you during the day, let him play at your house, eat your food and drink your food!"

Cuihua rolled her eyes: "That's up to you to say, I don't have anything to say when your whole family comes to eat and live."

Sister Yuan laughed: "That won't work, my man has to come back every day, I have to give him food and drink."

Mrs. Zhang looked at the elder sister-in-law and her younger siblings. They got along well, and she was jealous. Thinking about her bad daughter-in-law, she was making trouble.

From this day on, the six boys, Little Shitou, plus the three heads and four heads, searched for nothing, and even the gentle Ding Doudou was taken astray, and they even dared to ride a dog.

Black tigers and panthers are very helpless to the cubs climbing their dogs' backs every day, and they dare not bite them, so they have to carry them around the yard at any time.

The chili seeds have been planted in the soil lumps, and the temperature in the greenhouse covered with oil paper is higher than that outside, and people check carefully every day.

The Royal Ceramics Research and Development Center is very close to the village, and you can walk to and from get off work. The guards assigned by the emperor to Uncle Zhongqin now have a sharp reduction in workload, and they are often invited to dinner. This job is very smooth.

There are still a few fat pigs that were not killed during the Chinese New Year. It is really delicious to kill and eat now.

The sauerkraut that has not been eaten in winter is cleaned up, sliced ​​into thin slices, cut into thin shreds, stir-fried with oil, then added with water, thrown into large bones, large pieces of pork belly, pork blood sausage, konjac vermicelli, stewed in a large pot Butcher dish.

Although it is not the end of the year, but when is it not delicious to eat pig-killing vegetables?

The oily big stick bone, the pork belly cut into large slices, the spring onion made with garlic, chili oil and bean paste dipped in water, no matter how you eat it, you will never get tired of it!

The smooth and tender pork blood sausage, hot on the tongue, has another flavor compared to Maoxuewang. The sauerkraut and vermicelli soaked in meat and oil are the last few mouthfuls of greasy vegetables.

In the yard, there was a large stove built of bricks, two large iron pots full, and dozens of people from Hu's family and Heiwa's two cousins, who ate with enthusiasm.

Xiao Wu held up a big stick bone and gnawed it until his face was covered with oil. Xiaomi's teeth stubbornly fought against the bone, and there was nothing else in his eyes.

The meat was also cut into pieces, and ten catties were shared among the relatives, and a lot of them were sent back to the city for the eldest and second children to taste. This is a big fat pig that has been raised for more than a year.

Compared with Cuihua who loves to go back to the countryside, the Fan sisters come back to Dali Village once or twice a year at most, and the climate is comfortable in spring, so they come back for spring.

The Fan sisters felt the joy of being aristocrats when they took the maid and mother-in-law who had been allocated to their own yard by the Earl's Mansion and led the baby in the village.

It's a pity that I can't go back to my natal family to show off, otherwise it would be a return home. They men are earning a lot of money now. Looking at the envious eyes of the daughters-in-law and eldest daughters in the village, the sisters are so proud and satisfied.

Niu Changshui and Niu Xi'er also came with their aunt to eat pig-killing dishes. Looking at the courtyard of Yuan's mansion and the girls, Niu Changshui's eyes were full of dissatisfaction: so rich and so powerful, how much does he and his sister eat? , It caused my uncle to have such a big opinion, how many times I quarreled with my aunt, and I didn't even want to go home.

Niu Xi'er saw that her little brothers were always served by maids and maids, and she was also envious: It's great to have someone to serve her, when will her aunt buy the maids to go back!
Distributing the bird's nest to several pregnant women, Cuihua wanted to have a good talk with Big Sister Niu, but she didn't say anything like she had a lot of things at home and I went back when I had nothing to do.

However, facing Hu Erniu, she was not polite: "Second brother, I didn't blame you, and you are not the one who can't stand up, why is it that my mother is complaining now, and said that you are not willing to go home. "

Hu Erniu wanted to cry: "Sister, I really have nothing to do with this bitch, she threatens me with her belly every now and then, not only Xiaochuan doesn't care about me, but now she even cares about my food, drink, clothes and so on. Don't care, let me do my own laundry, tell me, what else can I return to my house?"

"Then do you want to ask a woman to do housework at home? The second sister-in-law has a bigger belly, and she really can't do these housework anymore."

"Hehe, they don't wash my clothes for me. My nephew and niece wash them very diligently. They also said that I was fussing with my two children. I want to hire another woman, but I don't know who I did it for! "

Cuihua frowned, this girl Niu might have lost her mind.
