Before dawn, Su Jinxiu got up to catch fish and make fish balls.
Put it in the backpack and ask Su Shangwu to deliver it to Uncle Lin.
As soon as I sat down to take a rest, I heard Su Afang shouting at the top of her lungs outside.
"Eating meat is exciting, but herding pigs is boring.
Li Zhaodi, it’s your turn to herd pigs this month.”
Before the family was separated, Su Jinxiu's father bought a sow.
He said he had laid piglets, so he gave them two.
When the family was divided, the second and third bedrooms took it upon themselves to divide the pigs.
It is said that there are three families to feed, and when the time comes, the three families will be divided.
Li Zhaodi came out of the room and walked out in a hurry.
"Second brother and sister, don't wake up Jinxiu, I'll go..."
Su Afang rolled her eyes and spit at Su Jinxiu's house.
“Young girls eat so much meat that they can’t afford to sleep until the sun shines on them.
How can she get married like that?"
Last night she smelled the aroma of meat even with the door closed, and her brother Shuan's mouth watered with greed.
She opened the door and stood outside waiting for Li Zhaodi to deliver the meat.
Unexpectedly, Li Zhaodi didn't send it, and instead let that little bastard Su Shangwu yell.
Brother Shuan lost his temper all night, and she didn't sleep well all night.
Naturally, I have to seek revenge from Li Zhaodi for this bad breath.
"After you let the pigs go, come back with a load of water for me.
I haven’t eaten meat, so I’m bored.”
Just as Li Zhaodi was about to nod, Su Jinxiu came out of the room.
The door slammed shut, and the sound seemed to hit Su Afang's heart.
"Is the second aunt disabled? Can't move? Or is she stupid?
Have you forgotten what I said that day?"
Su Afang shivered, gritted her teeth and entered the house.
"If the pig loses weight, I will go to the mayor and drive you Sangmenxing out."
She had discussed with the third roommate at the beginning, and they would take the lead.
When Li Zhaodi was raising the pigs, they happened to catch up with the sows for breeding.
In this way, Li Zhaodi had to pay for the breeding. They saved the breeding money and got a few piglets for free.
Su Jinxiu let Li Zhaodi into the house and turned to the pig pen.
Driving the sow, she wandered up the mountain.
Su Afang and the others were reluctant to give rice bran to the pigs, so they drove the pigs up the mountain every day to eat some wild grass and fruits.
It's also strange that just by eating these things, this sow is stronger than ordinary sows.
Su Jinxiu followed the sow into the forest, going deeper and deeper.
Because so few people came, the wild fruits fell to the ground and rotted.
The sow, however, was not interested in the fruits on the ground. She lowered her head and raised her head to the ground.
“Hang Chi Chi Chi Chi.
Red fruits, green leaves, eat one and think about one."
When Su Jinxiu heard this, she immediately thought of something.
Quickly following up, the sow dug out a ginseng stick from a crack in the soil, chewed it and swallowed it.
Then, go to dig another mound.
This time, Su Jinxiu's hand was quickly snatched away.
It's a small ginseng, less than ten years old.
"Hang Chih Chih, I want to eat."
Su Jinxiu smiled and tickled the sow.
"In this way, let's take half the ginseng for each of us.
How about using the money from selling ginseng and me buying you rice and sweet potatoes to make porridge?"
The sow seemed to understand. She chirped twice and continued to look for ginseng.
When going down the mountain, Su Jinxiu and Sow were very satisfied.
She got three small ginseng sticks. Although they were not worth a lot of money, they could relieve an urgent need.
I kept one and took it into the city before dawn the next day.
The bullock cart from the village left, but she missed it. It was almost noon when she arrived in the city.
As I got closer, I saw that the front of the old man's shop was crowded with people.
The old man saw Su Jinxiu coming and quickly greeted her.
"Okay, the fish balls will be available soon."
Seeing such a good business, Su Jinxiu felt happy from the bottom of her heart.
After working all morning, the fish balls were sold out.
Only then did she take the time to wipe the handle and eat a bowl of wontons.
At a glance, I found that the tortoise brought that day was still in the bucket.
The old man saw Su Jinxiu staring at the barrel, and he quickly stepped forward.
"This stuff is so ugly that most people can't cook it, so no one eats it."
Su Jinxiu smiled and put down the bowl.
"It doesn't matter, I'll do it, just like adding a rare dish to the shop."
Slice, fry, stew, sprinkle with chili and perilla, and take it out of the pot.
The smell was almost unbearable, so the old man sniffed and stepped forward.
"Is this thing really delicious?"
Su Jinxiu nodded: "Try it?"
Before I even moved my chopsticks, I heard a slight cough outside the door.
"Miss Su is making delicious food again?"
It was Manager Chen. Su Jinxiu's eyes lit up and she invited him in politely.
"I've cooked a fish dumpling. Can Mr. Chen give it a try?"
Manager Chen had already smelled it, so he picked up a piece of skirt with his chopsticks.
Spicy and soft, the more you eat, the more you crave it.
A pot of fried fish was gone in the blink of an eye, and Manager Chen ate it very happily.
"Okay, okay, if you have such a good thing in the future, send it to your house."
Su Jinxiu wiped her hands and stepped forward with a smile.
"I often hear my old man say that stewards are well-informed. If there is something, I would like to help Steward Chen to see it and open his eyes."
She took out the ginseng in her arms and handed it to Manager Chen.
Manager Chen took the ginseng and smashed it into his mouth.
"This ginseng looks like it's about ten years old. Although it's not top quality, it's not bad to take it back and make tea for the old lady.
How many do you have here? I want them all."
Su Jinxiu looked embarrassed and sighed.
"I'm sorry, Manager Chen, I only have these two.
If there is any more in the future, I will bring it to you directly..."
Manager Chen was soft-spoken and gave him fifty taels of silver notes and left with the ginseng.
Touching the thin silver note, Su Jinxiu smiled with satisfaction.
These two ginseng sticks would definitely not be sold for so much money when taken to a drug store.
——————————————
I bought a chicken with my money and went home to make a pot of chicken and ginseng chicken soup.
As usual, I added a drop of spiritual spring water, and first filled a bowl of chicken soup to feed the man on the bed.
The man did not wake up, but nourished by the spiritual spring water, his complexion was no longer so pale.
Li Zhaodi took a look and carefully closed the doors and windows.
"Jinxiu! This person never wakes up. We can't hide him forever."
Su Afang was always out and about these days, and her heart kept rising in her throat, fearing that she would be discovered to have a man hiding in her house.
It doesn't matter if she doesn't, but she can't ruin Jinxiu's reputation.
Su Jinxiu sat down and gave Li Zhaodi a big chicken leg.
"By the way, did dad build a new house in the east?
It will be empty before it is built, so you can spend some money to build a roof and move in."
Li Zhaodi gave Su Shangwu the chicken legs and sighed.
"Your second aunt said you can't move it, she's saving it for Shuanzi to get married and build a new house!
Why don't you, mother, clean up the pigsty and move in with your brother and the others?
If you live in my mother’s house, let him live here..."
Su Jinxiu frowned. The second and third bedrooms had no support for them at first.
He took a lot of their stuff, so he had to find a way to get it back.
"Sister-in-law, what delicious stews have you made at home?
My embolus is sick, and I'm asking you to stutter."
Su Afang banged on the door outside, and Li Zhaodi glanced at the man on the bed.
I was shocked and the bowl in my hand fell to pieces.
