Chapter 17 Chapter 17

Xiaodouzi grinned happily, took it and handed it to Lin Lan's mouth: "Mom, eat."

"Good baby." Lin Lan took a bite lightly: "Soft, sweet, and delicious!"

Xiaodouzi took a small bite: "Mom and Douzi will eat one, and leave one for grandma."

"Good baby!" Lin Lan responded with a smile.She looked at it for a while and found that the woman's business was not bad, and she made a few deals in a short while.

Lin Lan looked around, and felt that this place was really good for selling things, extending in all directions, even if someone with a red armband came, she could run away.

The mother and son walked through the forest to the alley, and saw a few rows of two-story dormitory buildings, and the walls were also covered with red slogans.

Passing through the alleyway, there are rows of small courtyards, and the walls are also filled with big characters.

The workers held their heads high, looked at people through their nostrils, and looked really proud.

Lin Lan looked around, and walked back satisfied with Douzi on her back. At the gate of the courtyard, Xiaodouzi said, "Mom, bring cakes to grandma."

"Okay!" The mother and son sent the egg cake to the third uncle's house.

Knocking on the door, Xiaodouzi handed the egg cake to the old lady: "Grandmother, the cake is soft and delicious!"

The old lady looked at the chicken cake, and happily touched Douzi's head: "My dear, the old lady doesn't like to eat it, and the little Douzi grows taller after eating it."

Lin Lan smiled and said, "Third Uncle, you can eat! The beans have been squeezed all the way home, and I want to give them to you!"

The old lady took it and put it aside. She was relieved and happy, and said to Lin Lan with a stern face: "Correct your gluttonous problem, and return the money that compensated you to Zhang Yazhen. Remember, you owe it to others." Always in debt."

Lin Lan looked at her pretending to be wronged: "Third Uncle, I have already returned it to them."

The old lady gave her a blank look: "Then what are you doing in the woods?"

Lin Lan thought of asking her to look after Xiaodouzi when she wanted to sell things, so she hesitated and said, "I got some peas and want to make some orchid beans for sale."

"Orchid Bean!" The old lady was a little disbelieving, "Can you make it?"

Lin Lan nodded with a smile, "Yes, I've soaked it, and I can fry it tomorrow afternoon." She said flatteringly and looked at the old lady, "My fried orchid beans taste pretty good, you can try them later. See if you can sell it for money."

Knowing that he has found a way to earn money to support his family, it seems that he has really woken up.

The old lady looked at her with some relief, and lowered her voice: "That stuff costs oil, and the seasonings used are not cheap, you should buy less at the beginning, don't sell it by the pound.

Go buy some kraft paper and come back, I'll paste dozens of paper bags for you.A bag contains three taels, and it sells for two cents a bag. Try it out and sell it before making more. "

After hearing this, Lin Lan looked at her with bright eyes, and gave her a thumbs up: "You have a good idea. Third uncle, I will give you money, can you help me buy kraft paper?"

"Just know how to order the old lady." The old lady smiled and gave her a reproachful look, "Bring it, go back and cook."

"Hey!" Lin Lan gave her all the money left in her pocket: "I'll bring the food and oil book tomorrow morning, and you can help me buy a catty of sugar and two catties of toilet paper. Do you know where to buy pepper noodles?"

The old lady nodded: "I'll buy it for you tomorrow."

Lin Lan looked at her gratefully, and bowed respectfully to her: "Thank you, uncle."

Seeing her satisfied, the old lady said disgusted words: "I am helping Xiaodouzi, not helping you. You should stop talking nonsense and live your life well, just thank me."

Lin Lan looked at her and replied solemnly: "I remember." She felt that the old lady was a typical knife-mouthed bean curd heart, and it was also a blessing for her and Xiaodouzi to have such an elder by her side.

Lin Lan walked a few steps, suddenly remembered something, and turned around: "Uncle, do you still have any ramie seeds?"

The old lady stopped closing the door: "Also, do you want to sow seeds to feed the pigs?"

Lin Lan nodded: "Yes! I want to earn some money to buy two piglets to feed."

"I'll get it for you!" The old lady turned around and went into the house and took out a small bag of ramie seeds and gave it to Lin Lan. "Scatter some under the fence and on both sides of the wing room, the pigs are most willing to eat it."

Lin Lan nodded with a smile: "Thank you."

The old lady waved her hand, turned and entered the house.

The mother and son came out of the third uncle's grandmother's house, and when they walked to the ditch, they saw Zhang Yazhen poking around the door.

When Zhang Yazhen saw them coming back, she gave Lin Lan a blank look, turned around with her head held high and her buttocks up, and went into the courtyard, and slammed the door on the courtyard with a bang.

Lin Lan felt that this woman was a little baffled. The original owner owed you money, but she returned it all to you.Every time I encounter it, the nose is not a nose, and the eyes are not eyes. Something is wrong!
She led Douzi straight across the machine-cultivating road and walked towards the gate of the yard, and saw a basket of sprouted yams at the gate.Thinking that Yang Liying had said that she would send some potato seeds at noon, she brought them in and was busy cutting and planting the potato sprouts before starting to cook.

Boil the yams with the buds removed, press them into mashed yams with a kitchen knife, cook them into a paste, and fry a plate of vegetables for dinner.

Xiaodouzi was very satisfied with the potato paste: "Mom, I like to eat potato shreds, potato paste."

Lin Lan wiped the rice grains off the corner of his mouth with a smile: "There are many delicious ways to eat yams. Mom has planted a lot of them, and I will make them for you in the future."

Xiaodouzi nodded heavily: "Mom, after eating Douzi, you will grow taller. I will earn money to buy you cakes."

Lin Lan kissed him: "Little glib! Go for a walk around the yard to digest food!"

"Yeah!" Xiaodouzi walked towards the yard with short legs.

Lin Lan washed the pots and bowls, went out to collect the clothes, and went to the west wing to find a urea bag, opened it, took it to the side of the ditch, scrubbed it clean, shook the water and hung it on the bamboo pole.

Pick up the hoe and start digging the ground, and dug the east wing along the wall, and it was getting dark.She hastily mixed plant ash and sprinkled half of the ramie seeds on the ground, poured water and closed the courtyard door, took the urea bag and returned to the kitchen with the small beans.

After the mother and son washed up, Lin Lan told Xiaodouzi a story and sewed a drawstring pocket with a dried urea bag before falling down to sleep.

The next day, Lin Lan met Lao Chen who was picking up cow dung with a pan bag, and saw that he was in much better spirits.

In the afternoon, she mowed the grass and sent the cattle back to the drying yard. As soon as she got home, the third uncle came with Xiaodouzi on her back.

A large bundle of yellow-brown straw paper, a catty of sugar, a pack of pepper powder, several thick paper bags, and a colander made of bamboo strips.

The old lady also changed the remaining money into small change.

Lin Lan looked at her in surprise: "Uncle, why did you spend so much money?"

The old lady smiled and said: "The sugar is six cents and five cents a catty, the straw paper is one cent two, and the kraft paper is two cents a piece. I bought the pepper noodles from an old sister who cooks food. The colander was given to her. It is just a piece of kraft paper." five."

Lin Lan took the money, and said embarrassedly: "You owe me a favor by buying things for me. When I make money, treat your old sister to eat delicious food."
