Portable Space: Small Peasant Girls Farm to Get Rich

Chapter 40 Changes in Villagers

After self-reflection, Liu Qingcao slightly raised the corners of her lips, looked at the blurred figure outside the yard, and breathed a sigh of relief.

"Only by keeping your feet on the ground can you go far."

Yes, she really intends to take small steps. Huibailou is the first step. On the premise of not affecting Huibailou's business, it is the first time to cooperate with the cloth shop in the town. two steps.

Maybe the consumption power in the town is a bit limited, but in short, there will be profits, no matter how little it is, it is much better than being a farmer.

Liu Qingcao sat in the yard for a while, then got up and went to the back mountain with a basket on her back. The Avalokitesvara leaves she picked yesterday were not enough, so she had to run again, otherwise the sun would come out to pick them later. numb.

Liu Qingcao walked across the wasteland with a basket on her back. When the land reclamation people saw her coming, they glanced at her and continued to work. Some of them were more courageous, and smiled at her;

Liu Qingcao nodded slightly at the people who greeted her, strode away from their sight, and went to do her own business.

On the way, Liu Qingcao passed by the pool and took a look inside. Last time she pulled the net, there were still a lot of fish in it. Today, there are still so many fish, and she didn't see that she was trapped and became thinner.

Looking at the fat fish every day, Liu Qingcao swallowed her saliva, thinking that when she came back later, she would fish a few and cook them.

She has come to Houshan frequently these days, and she has already walked a shallow path in the huge forest. Following the marks, Liu Qingcao soon arrived at the place with Guanyin leaves.

There are many Avalokitesvara leaves, a large one, even if we provide materials for several big restaurants, they will not be used up.

Liu Qingcao looked at the leaf that brought her money, a smile overflowed from the corner of her mouth.

With the knife in hand, a handful of tender green Avalokitesvara leaves were picked up in his hand. After a while, the willow grass was mowed full.

Thinking of opening up wasteland for herself, Liu Qingcao walked around the villagers with a basket on her back and went back to her small courtyard, put the Avalokitesvara leaf into the firewood hut, and quickly went to the back mountain, back and forth four times, before Liu Qingcao had enough for herself The number of Avalokitesvara leaves you want.

On the last trip, Liu Qingcao didn't have so many Avalokitesvara leaves in her basket, so she went to the pool, caught four fish weighing about five catties, put them under the basket, and quietly returned to the yard.

Back home, Liu Qingcao saw the old man Niu sitting quietly in the corner of the courtyard washing pigs into the water, Luo Shiyuan looked at the old man with disgust, and looked at the old man Niu with an expression of disbelief, as if he had been struck by lightning, silly of.

Liu Qingcao was used to the old man Niu helping her wash pigs into the water, so she didn't think it was strange, but Luo Shiyuan was different. He knew his identity as Brother Cheng, so he couldn't believe it, and it could even be said that he was terrified.

Liu Qingcao put down the basket, slipped the fish out, put it in a large basin, scooped water into it, the fish straightened up, flapped its two gills, and immediately came alive.

Seeing the lively and jumping fish, Liu Qingcao didn't wait for night, so she packed two of them and came out to eat at noon.

Luo Shiyuan looked at the two sitting in the corner of the courtyard, his expression was stiff, and the corners of his mouth twitched wildly, Liu Qingcao looked up, and twitched the corners of his mouth.

Although this is the master who gave the money, she really doesn't look down on this person at all, she looks like a woman who can't get on the stage and scoffs, maybe he can't even compare with Liu Jiangbei.

Liu Qingcao packed the fish, took it to the kitchen to marinate, went to the firewood room to get the side dishes, cleaned them, and cut them up.

After the fish was marinated, Liu Qingcao started the process of making the grilled fish. It was not until the end that Liu Qingcao brought the grilled fish to the table after watching the old man wash the pig offal.

The grilled fish was on the table, and the aroma was overflowing. Liu Qingcao had already eaten it twice, and smelling this smell again, she also felt that life was very good and she was very hopeful.

Luo Shiyuan had never eaten such a dish, and when the grilled fish came out, he stared at it nakedly, and the saliva in his mouth made him swallow continuously.

Liu Qingcao brought out the white rice, and the old man Niu also washed his hands and sat on the chair. Luo Shiyuan was watched by the old man Niu, so he didn't dare to move his chopsticks first.

When everyone was together, the old man Niu would hold his chopsticks to eat gracefully. Seeing Brother Cheng start, Luo Shiyuan naturally stopped being polite, and picked up vegetables and planed rice like a disobedient brat.

Liu Qingcao knew that grilled fish was served with rice, so she had an extra bowl of rice for lunch. No, Luo Shiyuan was about the same age as her, and her fighting strength was several blocks behind her.

She also eats half a bowl of rice when she eats something delicious. She cooked a big pot for lunch, and she ate one and a half bowls. Luo Shiyuan and the old man Niu also eat a lot. .

After eating, Luo Shiyuan was still unsatisfied, saying that she didn't cook much, Liu Qingcao didn't want to talk to him, so she rolled her eyes, thinking, if he eats like this, the ten taels of silver may not be enough for living expenses, so I have to let him He only needs to add money.

After tidying up the kitchen, Liu Qingcao cooked a large pot of mung bean soup in the kitchen after the old man Niu and Luo Shiyuan drove the ox cart back. After cooking for more than an hour, the red bean paste came out. After cooling, Liu Qingcao added A large piece of ice was added to make the mung bean soup even cooler.

The weather was too hot, and by the time Liu Qingcao carried the load to the villagers who opened up wasteland, the ice had already melted away.

"Uncles, sisters-in-law, brothers and sisters, rest for a while, it's so hot, I made some mung bean soup to relieve the heat for you."

Liu Qingcao put the burden under the shade of the tree, and greeted the villagers who opened up wasteland from far and near.

The nearest Jiang Dafu heard Liu Qingcao's call, and hurriedly called everyone to come with bowls.

In the morning, the girl put a big bucket there. When the sun was scorching hot, most people’s mouths were parched. When he was about to go back to get water, Jiang Dafu stopped him and asked them to bring a bowl to make mung bean soup.

There were a lot of people, and consciously, Jiang Dafu took a soup ladle and made half a bowl for each of them. At the end of the beating, it seemed that it was not enough, so he reduced the amount again, so that everyone drank more or less. up.

This mung bean soup, he drank half a spoonful of it, it really quenched his thirst, and it also had a satiety effect. He didn't know why this girl was so willing, a big bucket of mung bean soup cost some copper coins, so he just gave it to them like this have eaten.

Liu Qingcao held the spoon and stood under the tree waiting for someone to come. When she saw Jiang Dafu was the first one to come forward, she offered the spoon to him.

Later, she asked old man Niu about this person, and then she found out that it was Jiang Dahe's eldest son. She could see that Jiang Dahe was not very good, but his son was not a bad guy. Maybe Jiang Dafu did it without him. After the village head, he will also lead the villagers out.

Jiang Dafu took the spoon, looked at her, and then at the mung bean soup that was half as much as in the morning, and he struggled to say:
"Little girl is good at cooking. It's just that it costs money. Don't do it next time. A countryman can just drink some plain water, so there is no need to spend more money."

"It's okay, it's only two or three days, I can't spend a lot of money, it's so hot today, if I suffer from heat illness, I'm sorry." Liu Qingcao waved her hand with a smile, and retreated when she saw the villagers coming one after another After a few steps, he gave up the position to Jiang Dafu and the villagers.

Liu Qingcao standing aside had nothing to do, so she began to observe the villagers carefully. When registering information in the morning, most of the villagers were still a little timid. Uncheckable changes.

Seeing the changes in the villagers, Liu Qingcao was relieved a lot. It seems that this method is still useful for the younger generation who are eager to return to normal life.

After Jiang Dafu distributed all the mung bean soup, he himself picked up a large bowl and sat on a hoe pole to drink it.

Liu Qingcao saw that everyone was having fun and didn't disturb her. She said hello to Jiang Dafu and went back with the bucket.
