Farm girl is busy making money

Chapter 46 Building a house
Chapter 46 Building a house
Early this morning, the sun came out early, driving away the severe cold of early winter.

A few children sneaked out to play under the big tree after breakfast. They had no toys, so they all picked up beautiful small stones and threw them farther than anyone else's stones. Those who won could take away the stones brought by the opponent.

He Qinmao also played with them with a handful of small stones.

At this time, a fat boy came over and put his arm on his shoulder, "Maomao, I heard that you almost died, and it would be better if you ate that mad dog's brain. What does a dog's brain taste like?"

"It's not for eating, it's for applying on the wound, idiot!" He Qinmao gave him a big white eye, playing with the small stones in his little hand, he was going to win a lot more today.

"I'm not an idiot. I heard that your mad dog's brain was sold for a lot of money. How much did you sell for?" The fat boy wanted to become angry at first, but he held back his temper when he thought of his parents' advice.

He Qinmao tilted his head to look at him, his cheeks bulging slightly.

When I went to bed that night, my eldest brother said that anyone who wants to ask Mad Dog how much his brains were sold for is not a good person.

Since he is not a good person, He Qinmao gritted his teeth and said, "Give me a mint candy your mother bought for you, and I'll tell you!"

"Here!" The fat boy took out the last piece of mint candy that he had treasured in his arms for several days, and put it in He Qinmao's hands with great heartache, thinking that his mother must buy more and return it as soon as possible He can do it.

"It can probably sell mints for 1000 yuan!" He Qinmao stuffed the mints into his arms.

How much is 1000 yuan mints? The fat boy couldn't figure it out after breaking his hands, so he ran after him, but he couldn't run, so he had to go home and find his mother to figure it out.

He Qin Maobai got a piece of candy, and won a lot playing stone throwing with his friends, when he saw He Lanshan coming over.

"Brother Maomao, do you want to pick shepherd's purse with me?" He Lanshan greeted casually.

"Did it come from your mother?"

"Well, I prepared cold salad for my uncle who is working at home."

After the two asked and answered, He Qinmao took away his small stones and followed He Lanshan. The elder brother said that more things should be done to save money for the family!

He Lanshan took He Qinmao to a piece of wasteland, which was full of shepherd's purse.

Because of the good harvest, not many people in the village came to dig wild vegetables to eat, and He Lanshan saw a piece of plantain, although it was sparsely grown, it was not small in size.

This plantain is a treasure, it has the effects of clearing away heat, reducing phlegm and improving eyesight.

She was so happy that when she devoted herself to picking it, He Qinmao had already walked up behind He Lanshan and stuffed a hard thing into her mouth.

"Don't spit it out, it's sugar!" He Qinmao said anxiously.

"Third brother, why don't you keep the candy for yourself, give me the whole piece." If He Lanshan hadn't tasted the sweetness, she would have vomited it out a long time ago. This He Qin Maosai made the candy look like poisoning.

"I've heard from elder brother that when I was bitten by a dog, grandma locked dad in the house. It was the mad dog that you and elder brother Gu beat to death. Thank you, Lan Shan."

He Qinmao thanked He Lanshan coyly.

He Lanshan laughed "puchi". In her eyes, He Qinmao was just a brat, but Zhao Shuangxi taught the children well. Even if they didn't like her at first, they would now seriously thank her.

"Well, I'm going to dig wild vegetables! This is for you to play too, I won it." When He Qinmao jumped to pick wild vegetables, he gave He Lanshan all his precious little stones.

He Lanshan looked at the small blue and white stones in her hand, and couldn't laugh or cry. Since it was He Qinmao's wish, she accepted it and put it carefully in her arms.

The taste of mint in the mouth spreads on the tip of the tongue, and the sweet heart will melt.

He Lanshan and He Qinmao went home with the shepherd's purse they dug.

Zhao Shuangxi was busy on the stove. The black-faced steamed buns had already been steamed, and they were piled high in a big wooden barrel. They were covered with gauze and covered with a thick cotton-padded jacket.

"They are really two diligent little guys. When you are hungry, go get a steamed bun to eat."

Zhao Shuangxi just turned his head and glanced hastily, and then he took care of them flawlessly. The sun was high, and soon the people who helped his family would come to eat.

Fortunately, the big stick bone was stewed in the clay pot at the beginning. Zhao Shuangxi quickly poured the big stick bone, bone and soup into the pot, and chopped a whole Chinese cabbage into it.

"Mom, we won't eat. We will eat together when the time comes. I'll wash the shepherd's purse." He Lanshan saw that Zhao Shuangxi was sweating, and He Qinfeng and He Qinzheng also went outside to help people hunt pigweed for sweet potatoes. I went, although she was a little hungry, but she was too embarrassed to eat as soon as she came to the table.

"to make!"

Zhao Shuangxi frowned, thinking that having a daughter was just right and caring.

When the Chinese cabbage bones in the pot were out of the pot, it was enough to fill three large bowls. Zhao Shuangxi burned the fish that Lao Li gave yesterday, and bought a piece of tofu at the tofu maker Xi Shi's house at the entrance of the village, and stewed crucian carp tofu soup.

As soon as the pot was started here, people came back one after another. He Lanshan had just brought the washed shepherd's purse into the door.

Today was the foundation of the homestead, and all the villagers were disheartened. Zhao Shuangxi put the fish out of the pot, and hurriedly went out to fetch water for them to wash their faces and hands.

Seeing that Zhao Shuangxi was too busy to touch the floor, He Lanshan had no choice but to heat the shepherd's purse by herself.

A group of cleaning men came in and joked as they watched He Lanshan scooping up the boiled shepherd's purse on tiptoe.

"This is the little girl from Jin Yi's family. Not bad, she has been busy on the stove since she was young."

"Yeah, let me see what delicious food I have made for the uncles."

"This girl is not bad, she is diligent at first glance, why not promise it to my eldest son in the future."

He Lanshan was an adult at heart, so she wouldn't be embarrassed by their joking words, so she continued to cut and mix the shepherd's purse before serving it to the table.

Some of the villagers who came to help them were standing and some were sitting. At first, they didn't have any expectations for the meals of He Jinyi's family. After all, they lived in a wooden house with air leakage!Moreover, they didn't get a lot of money from the division of the family. Although the mad dog's brains were sold, there was not much left for a house.

Who knew that there were fish and meat served.

Crucian carp stewed with tofu, the crucian carp has been smashed by Zhao Shuangxi, the fish meat is mixed in the milky white soup, mixed with tofu, tender and fresh after a sip.

As for the fried Chinese cabbage, if you look closely, there are oily flowers floating in it. There are actually a few bones together. When you take a bite, it is not only crispy but also has a meaty taste.

This cold shepherd's purse is even better. The originally bitter wild vegetables are very delicious and refreshing!

With the conditions of He Jinyi's family, it's pretty good to be able to eat like this. Although there are no big fish and meat, every dish is thoughtful, and the villagers who came to help are all very satisfied!
