It took a day to boil water to wash the injured sweet potatoes, cut them into slices, and dried them on the sorghum straw curtain that Yang Minggang had given me. This curtain was 1.5 meters wide and 3 meters long. It could be fully exposed to the sun.
.
It was already the end of November, and the beginning of winter was about to begin. Su Yuanyuan began to collect cabbage from home.
When you get home, simply clean up the cabbage, repair the roots, and break off any rotten cabbage.
There are only a dozen or so left outside, and the rest are stored in the space.
Of course, if you don’t make it, prepare pickled sauerkraut. The smallest one is left to dry in the sun. This dried cabbage is also very delicious.
Especially the vegetable buns with dried cabbage and chive vermicelli.
Su Yuanyuan had already thought about it. During the twelfth lunar month, she would sell vegetable buns at the train station. She would definitely earn more than selling food.
There are more than 400 cabbages. If the price is right this year, I will sell them. If not, I will wait until later.
The radish is also good. The radish tassels were given to Hu Chunhua and Xu Chunjiao.
There is a kind of sauerkraut here, which is steamed radish tassels. Mix it with raw shredded radish and press it with big stones. After more than 20 days, it will be sauerkraut.
Su Yuanyuan didn't like sauerkraut, so she gave the radish leaves to both families.
Because there were so many people in their family, they made two large tanks of this pickled cabbage.
Su Yuanyuan treated the radishes in the same way as cabbage. The small ones and the unsightly ones were put outside and grated into shreds.
Su Yuanyuan used to love eating steamed buns made with dried shredded radish. There were a lot more radishes than cabbage. She wiped ten pieces of shredded radish. She also used the shredded radish to pickle the pickles herself.
Now all the work in the fields has been done. This year is a harvest year for Su Yuanyuan, and it can be said to be a bumper harvest.
I am always busy and have no space to check.
Su Yuanyuan was inspecting her territory that day. She had a satisfied smile on her face when she saw several frames of vegetables and bags of grain.
The ancients did not deceive me. As long as you work hard, you will definitely gain something. This is absolutely proportional to the effort you have to make.
The lamb gave birth to three little ones, two females and one male.
Su Yuanyuan thought of the big ram at home and was really reluctant to sell it, but she would never be willing to kill it and eat it. Nor could she keep it like this for a long time.
I am very confused. I feel bad no matter what I do.
The temperature is already very low now. It has been almost a year since I came here, and this year my mentality has changed the most.
I am so tired every day that I have no time to grieve over the Spring and Autumn Period. When I open my eyes, there is life waiting for me.
She feels that living such a life is comfortable, and she must find a lifestyle she likes for herself in this life.
Back outside, lying on the warm quilt. It's time to go up the mountain again.
We should have enough firewood this year, but we should save more.
Maybe I can increase my income. I didn’t pick up pine cones last year, so I will definitely do more if I have time this year. She fell asleep with a smile on her face.
The next day I went to raise the ground cage again, and this time I planned to raise the ground cage. I didn’t plan to go into the water every day. It was too cold and was not good for my health.
In fact, I have seen it a lot, and I know that nothing is as important as your body.
There are not too many fish and shrimps now. They look pretty good, especially the green shrimps are even less.
I am planning to go to the county in the next few days to deliver some sweet potatoes and sorghum rice to Lao Yang. I will also give him some small fish to eat.
We collected a total of 200 winter melons, more than 300 Japanese melons, and more than 100 pumpkins.
She sent two pumpkins to Zhao Yanli, "Try them, they are very delicious."
"Thank you Yuanyuan, there is a big gathering tomorrow, will you go?"
"I won't go. I have to cut the Japanese melons into pieces and dry them. When they are frozen, they should be ready to be dried. I will order four pigs from your family next year."
"Yuanyuan, you are so awesome. Can you help me?"
Su Yuanyuan shook her head, "No, I'll do it slowly by myself. I'll be able to finish cutting it in a few days."
She also gave Hu Chunhua and Xu Chunjiao five pumpkins, five Japanese melons, and five winter melons.
"Girl, this little Japanese melon is so beautiful." Xu Chunjiao looked at the pumpkin.
"Auntie, let me tell you, these little Japanese melons are delicious. You can steam them when you cook for lunch. You can try them."
Hu Chunhua also liked this pumpkin very much. Both families ate it, and it was indeed much more delicious than Japanese melon. So I saved the seeds, thinking that I would grow more of it next year, as it is even more delicious than sweet potatoes.
Su Yuanyuan is sitting in the yard cutting Japanese melon slices. A few days ago, Yang Minggang made her a mat of sorghum straw.
It took her three days to finish it by herself, and she left it in the yard to dry. It was good feed for pigs.
In my previous life, I and my grandma would do this every year.
The three fat pigs are already very fat, each weighing 2,670 pounds.
This time when I went to the county, I told Lao Yang to sell him one, kill the remaining one, and sell another one.
But this slaughtered pig is not going to be sold. It is kept in the space and eaten slowly later. Yang Minggang has to kill the pig for himself, otherwise it is hard to say. You can't say that you will keep one for yourself, right?
It's easy to explain this to me. People in the village won't come to buy the pigs if I kill them. When the time comes, I will go to the county to sell them.
Su Yuanyuan suddenly wanted to eat braised pork ribs. However, in this era, there was too little meat left on the pork ribs. Even after eating it, she was not satisfied. When she kills the pig, she will definitely leave a lot of meat.
This morning, I finished feeding the livestock at home, carried a basket on my back, and went out.
When we arrived at the county seat, we took out half a box of sweet potatoes, half a bag of sorghum rice, two pumpkins, and a winter melon. The small fish were placed in a basin.
Lao Yang was really touched when he saw this girl giving him something.
"Girl, have you had a good harvest?"
"Isn't it? It's been a great harvest. Come and thank Uncle Yang."
"It's easy to talk about. This Japanese melon is quite different."
"It's good to steam it. Uncle Yang, my fat pig weighs 2,670 pounds. Do you still want it?"
"Yes, don't you have three of them? Just sell me one?"
"I'll sell you both ends."
"That's about right." A pig weighing 2670 pounds must have a lot of fat. This girl is really good at it.
"How do you raise such a fat pig?"
"I bought more than a thousand kilograms of corn and all these small fish for the pigs to eat."
"Is that so? You are really amazing, girl. Are you staying for dinner today?"
Su Yuanyuan shook her head. "No, I still have a lot of things to add, because the autumn harvest has not come out for more than two months."
"Then come over before you leave. I'll order the pork right now. I'll decide on a day when you can find someone to kill the pig, and I'll just bring the meat back."
"Well, okay, I'll come back before I go back."
Lao Yang went out for a walk. Two pigs and four families were divided.
