The splendid life of a small peasant girl

Chapter 95
Xie Zhiwen was even more shocked when he heard it, "Sacrifice, why don't you talk about the sacrifices I made for the Xie family!" Xie Zhiwen scolded everyone in the Xie family while scolding his father and mother, and finally threw the table over in anger, thank you The house was not peaceful at all last night, and it was noisy for most of the night.

Yao Yu shook her head, "Poor Xie Xiuhong."

"That's right." Although Luo Shi didn't like Xie Xiuhong, after knowing that Xie Xiuhong was given to the wife in the town because of Xie Zhiwen's future, he couldn't help but sigh.

"Hey." Wang Fengzhen sighed. Xie's family used to be a good family in Shuangshui Village. They have made their good life like this. They are a big family. Now there are only Xie Wanfu and Liu's old couple, and four in the big house. And Xie Zhiwen.

Yao Yu felt that for the Xie family, this might be just the beginning. Xie Zhiwen didn't focus on the right path. Even if he couldn't pass the next hospital exam, Yao Yu led the horse out, "Let's go."

Seeing that the twelfth lunar month is entering, the village is busy doing New Year's goods, and the business of the shops is also very busy.After the breakfast was sold out every day, Yao Yu took Aunt Wu and his party to buy new year's goods. Since Yao Yu often went to buy meat, the shop owner always gave Yao Yu the best, and the price would be quite discounted.Aunt Wu and Wang Fengzhen didn't expect to be able to buy such fresh meat at such a cheap price, but they were very happy. After all, after the twelfth lunar month, everything has increased in price.

By the [-]th of the twelfth lunar month, Jiangzhou had fewer talents, "Is there anything else you need to buy?" Yao Yu planned to close the store tomorrow, so thinking about what everyone still lacks, it would be best to make up for it today.

"It's just the couplets." Aunt Wu said, in the past half a month, after buying some things every day, the family has piled up a lot of New Year's goods. This is the most prosperous year in history.

"Yes, I also forgot to buy couplets." Wang Fengzhen said.

Yao Yu was going to take Aunt Wu and Wang Fengzhen, but they quickly refused, "The only thing left is couplets. We'll go and buy them and we'll be back. You don't have to take us there."

The store will be closed tomorrow, but Yao Yu is busy counting things today, and there are still a lot of things to do, so Aunt Wu and Wang Fengzhen won't let Yao Yu go with her.Seeing this, Yao Yu turned around and continued to work.After buying the couplets, the two went back to the shop and continued to help, until it was almost dark, and the group returned to Shuangshui Village.

"Sister, don't you want to buy couplets?" Aunt Wu took out a pair of couplets from her pocket as she spoke, "I have more here."

Wang Fengzhen also hurriedly took out two or three pairs of signs for Yao Yu to take back and post them.

Yao Yu waved her hand. A few days ago, she bought a lot of red paper because Mr. Ji told Nuoer to practice writing couplets, "Our couplets are going to be written by Nuoer."

"This is a good idea." Luo Shi said, "When Xiao Lizi and Xiao Hai go to the village school for a few more years in the future, let them write couplets by themselves."

It was rare for Wang Fengzhen to agree with Luo Shi's statement, "That's right, what I wrote is so beautiful." In fact, it can't be said to be better than the people in Jiangzhou, but it's written by my son, so I can't help thinking that everything is good.

"It can also save a lot of money." Luo Shi said, some of the better couplets in Jiangzhou can be sold for a tael of silver or even more.

Aunt Wu said, "After the New Year's Eve, I'm going to send my grandchildren to the village school."

"This is a good thing." Yao Yu continued to ask, "Are all three grandchildren sent?"

"Well, send them all." Aunt Wu asked them before. If you want to go, you should make a decision this year. Once you go to the village school, you can't go back on your word. If you don't study well, you can't go to the village school again. The three grandsons all expressed that they would go to the village school and study hard.

Xie Zhiwen is no longer the only one in Shuangshui Village who goes to the village school to study. There will definitely be more and more children in the future, and then Liu will be unable to seduce her. Thinking of this, Wang Fengzhen asked curiously, "Big sister, you Nuo'er will go to take the exam for a boy student when she comes back." At present, Nuo'er is the one who goes to the village school in Shuangshui Village, and Master Li has the highest evaluation. Tong gave birth, and the Xie family couldn't be more frightened.

A few days ago, Mr. Ji said that after the new year, Nuo'er can take the county exam. If she passes, she can continue to take the government exam. It's not bad to be a child student. Thinking of this, Yao Yu said, "Maybe I will go to the county exam this year."

Shocked looks flashed across the eyes of Wang Fengzhen and the others, "New Year? How old is Nuoer?"

"Six years old at the beginning of the new year." Yao Yu said, it is normal to be surprised, thinking that when she was six years old, she was just a child with nothing to do.

"I heard Xiao Lizi say that Nuo'er is good at studying, but I didn't expect to take the county exam this year." Wang Fengzhen obviously hasn't recovered yet.

"In this way, our Shuangshui Village will have another child." Aunt Wu said.

"No way, Nuo'er is still young, and participating in the county examination is just to gain experience in advance. Besides, only after passing both the county examination and the government examination can one be considered a child student." Yao Yu said.

A few people nodded. If Tongsheng was so easy to take the exam, it wouldn't be so rare. In fact, it's not that Tongsheng is rare, but there are too few people in Shuangshui Village going to the village school, so Xie Zhiwen is the only one.

It's another new year, but this year is extraordinarily lively. Nuo'er and Mr. Ji wrote many couplets at home.

"Grandpa Ji, what do you think of my picture?" After Nuoer finished writing a couplet, she showed it to Mr. Ji, and if the meaning was good, she posted it on the wall. Nuoer never tires of writing couplets these days.

Mr. Ji read while reading, "Farewell to the old and welcome the new, the cold wind blows people away, and the rewards of hard work come to warm people's hearts. Horizontal comment: title on the gold list." Mr. Ji stroked his beard, and said with a smile, "That's right, This can be posted outside your house."

When Xie Zhimo heard this, he quickly took this couplet to the door of Nuoer's room and pasted it up. In two days, the couplets of Mr. Ji and Nuoer were pasted outside every door, including those of Yao Chang's house. I wrote a couplet written by my two grandparents.Xie Zhimo bought a few red lanterns from somewhere, and hung them outside the house, making them look more festive.

Two siblings, Yang Lan and Yang Gui, also came to Shuangshui Village on the 24th of the twelfth lunar month, making the family even more lively.The two siblings live directly in Yao Chang's house, which makes Yao Chang very happy. He has lived alone for a year, and finally two people came to accompany him, laughing every day.Yao Yu smiled secretly, the second brother still needs to find someone to settle down.

The preserved eggs in the jar were also cooked, Yao Yu took out a few, and after peeling them off, divided each preserved egg into four pieces with a needle and thread, and then laid them out one by one on the plate, like blooming flowers, and then poured vinegar on it.

Yao Yu took some preserved eggs and peeled them well, then crushed them in a bowl with chopsticks, fried them with lean meat, poured them into the boiled white rice porridge, stirred them evenly, and cooked them for a while. The new product, preserved egg and lean meat porridge.

When the whole family gathered for dinner, Nuo'er pointed to the plate of preserved eggs and asked, "What is this?"

"What do you think it looks like?" Yao Yu asked back.

Nuo'er thought for a while, "This should be a round object when you fight it up, and it looks a bit like an egg." But no matter whether it is an egg or a duck egg, there is no such deep black.

"Try it." Yao Yu said.

After everyone picked up their chopsticks, Xie Zhimo suddenly asked, "Could this be a duck egg?"

Yao Chang also thought about Yao Yu collecting duck eggs a while ago, "Although the size is about the same, duck eggs are not like this?"

Yao Yu didn't hold back any more, "It's made from duck eggs, called preserved eggs."

"Preserved eggs?" Mr. Ji asked suspiciously, this was the first time he had seen this thing.

"Well, it can be stored for a long time, how does it taste?" They must have never eaten preserved eggs, and Yao Yu was worried that everyone would not be able to accept the taste.

"Delicious." Xie Zhimo was the first to answer.

"I also think it's delicious, especially this egg yolk." Nuo'er went on to say that the egg yolk of the preserved egg Yao Yu deliberately made it with a candy heart in order to taste better.

"The taste is really good, cool and refreshing, fragrant but not greasy." Mr. Ji said pertinently.

As for Yao Chang, Yang Lan and Yang Gui proved that preserved eggs are delicious.

Only then did Yao Yu feel relieved. It seemed that the new dishes would not be sold out. When the Chinese New Year was approaching, Yao Yu gave Wang Fengzhen, Luo Shi, and Aunt Wu a red envelope of ten taels of silver, saying it was a reward at the end of the year. Everyone was even more happy with the silver.

As for Yang Lan and Yang Gui, Yao Yu gave them winning money on New Year's Eve, and each of them was ten taels of silver.As for the red envelope given to Yao Chang and Mr. Ji, neither of them wanted to take it. In the end, Yao Yu spent a lot of talking before they agreed, but when they turned around, they all gave Nuoer the money.So in the end, Nuoer received the most red envelopes alone.

Xie Zhimo's family set off fireworks on New Year's Eve, mainly because Nuoer wanted to see them, and since they had two more children this year, Yao Yu bought better fireworks for 20 taels of silver.

Aunt Wu and Wang Fengzhen's family had already heard the news that Yao Yu was going to set off fireworks, so they waited in the yard before the hour.Not to mention the villagers of Shuangshui Village, whether they saw it or not, they all stayed in the yard early last year.

When the time came, the brilliant fireworks illuminated Shuangshui Village again. The villagers were all excited. Those who had seen it knew that it was better than last year. They were very surprised. is surprised.

Yang Lan and Yang Gui were even more excited. Speaking of which, this was the first time they saw fireworks, and Yang Gui danced happily, which made everyone laugh.

The fireworks time was very short, Yao Yu patted Nuoer's head, "Why don't we buy more fireworks next year and come back to set them off?"

Nuo'er shook her head, "Then if you get tired of watching it, you don't have any expectations. This is the best."
