Chen Dongsheng nodded, "I've already cut a lot of cattail grass. I'll go back and weave a thick mat for you according to the car."
Chen Miao didn't refuse. The parents were arguing because they lived in poverty. In fact, they really didn't ask for anything after they got married. They didn't talk nonsense and didn't take advantage.
It's two good things and one good thing. It's not bad for this kind of relationship to continue. After all, if you really break up with your mother's family in the village, the villagers will talk about it behind your back. It's completely unnecessary.
"Third girl, this celery is very fragrant."
"Mom, do you like to eat vegetables with this flavor? I got these from the south, and there are a lot of seeds. You can plant them now, or you can use roots to plant them. I have a lot of roots at home and I haven't thrown them away yet. I just want more.
Water."
"Okay, let Chen Dou go get it and eat it too. The pickles are so delicious."
Yunshan Yunxin took Chen Dongsheng's hand and said, "Grandpa, I want to eat fish."
"Okay, grandpa will go down the net tonight."
Now the two brothers were happy and cheered that they had fish to eat.
Chen Miao didn't expect that there really was a fishing net. The next morning Chen Dou came over with a bucket and said, "Third sister, there are several fish. My mother said they would be given to Yunshan and the others to eat. I asked you to watch them and not let them get stuck."
"
Chen Miao was poured into the basin. There was a carp weighing a little over a pound, a grass carp weighing a little over a pound, and three crucian carp. It was really quite a lot, so there was no problem in eating one meal.
This was the first time for the two children to see a living fish in the river. They squatted by the basin to watch curiously.
"It's almost like a fish in the sea." Yun Shan muttered.
"Is your grandpa great?" Chen Miao asked with a smile.
The two younger ones nodded vigorously, "Awesome."
Chen Miao smiled. "Eat fish today? Or wait until tomorrow?"
"Eat today."
Chen Miao nodded with a smile, went into the house, took a pot of scissors, and sat down. Liu Laifu happened to come over to sell tofu, and this time he asked for five big pieces.
The two children had seen how to handle fish at sea and were not curious about it, so they asked the master to tell stories.
After the fish was packed, Chen Miao went outside and pulled out some peanuts. The particles were quite plump.
Luo Bingyuan looked at Chen Miao coming in with peanuts and asked, "Is that okay?" He was really not a farmer, and he still didn't understand many things.
"It can be cooked and eaten."
They sat down and started picking, and now the two little ones ran over to help. They could do this job, and it didn't stop them.
When washing the peanuts, pinch each corner. It will also taste better when cooked.
It was almost ten o'clock. Luo Bingyuan took the horse and donkey out, and the two little ones sat on them. In fact, Chen Miao thought it was too dangerous. But Luo Bingyuan said there would be no problem, and as time went by, she was no longer afraid.
Boil peanuts at the bottom of the pot, and assemble steamed buns and steamed buns on top. I still think cornmeal pancakes soaked in fish soup are more delicious.
After the pot is simmered, the fish is stewed in another pot. The fish is boiling and the tofu is boiling, so after frying the fish and adding the condiments, add water and break five pieces of tofu into small pieces and add them in.
After thinking about it, I picked the eggplant and steamed the beans. The eggplant with minced garlic was also delicious.
When they came back from their horses, the meal was already on the table. Chen Miao had a carp, a crucian carp and a lot of tofu in a basin.
"You guys eat first, I'll bring it to your grandpa."
The family was setting the table. Chen Dongsheng looked at the fish brought by his daughter and smiled. "It smells very fragrant."
"It tastes delicious. I tried the tofu and it was delicious."
After putting down the fish and boiled peanuts, she went home. When she got home, the three of them were still waiting for her to eat.
Children don't eat much fish today, they still like to eat steamed buns soaked in fish soup and tofu.
In the afternoon, while they were studying, she took the bag to the river, where the water plants should be dry.
When I saw it was less, I put on my mask and gloves and squatted down and started rubbing it with both hands.
It was already very dry, so it was easy to rub it in. I filled two bags and took it home.
When I got home, I didn't even wash myself when I got home. Instead, I went into the barn, where my feces had to be kicked out.
She really didn't want to do this job, but she couldn't do it. The house next door was built and the three of them moved in. They really didn't like the smell of the yard.
After pushing it out with a trolley, clean sand must be pushed in and spread on top.
In fact, she just thinks that this is retting manure. There is already a lot stored outside, and the three acres of land should be enough for fertilizer next year.
After everything was tidied up, I got some water to take a bath. In the evening, I ate corn grits porridge and a lot of pickles and celery. The two children also ate.
However, Chen Miao wanted them to eat scrambled eggs with carrots because she was afraid they would get mouth ulcers. Carrots are particularly rich in vitamins.
I suddenly thought that it would be good to go to the mountains next year to buy some more carrots and dry them in the sun. Maybe they will be used in the future.
The children didn't want to eat this time, but Chen Miao stipulated that they must eat it.
I'm thinking of making carrot porridge tomorrow so they will definitely eat it.
Peel and boil peanuts for them. It tastes better at night than at noon, and it is already delicious. There is no objection to eating this.
On August 13th, Chen Miao drove to the county seat. She went to pick up cotton and cloth, and also wanted to buy some mooncakes.
She had a rough idea of how to do it, but she really didn't want to do it, so she just bought it ready-made.
Nowadays, there are not so many additives, preservatives, etc., so you can eat with peace of mind.
When she was a child, her least favorite snack was mooncakes. The fillings at that time were too little. They were basically filled with roses. She really didn’t like the taste.
But considering that transportation is not so convenient now, there should be very few black-threaded roses with sunken ones. The most common ones are probably five-nut ones, right? I just don’t know if there are raisins here?
After entering the county town and going to a snack shop, she didn't know how to buy mooncakes from the grocery store, thinking that they would be even more inedible.
She really guessed it right, real five-nut mooncakes. Two hundred yuan a piece.
Two hundred Su coins is actually not expensive. But she didn't say anything when they charged her.
I have more than two million Soviet coins in my hand. I don’t feel bad about spending any of them. I picked out the old ones, and I still want to keep the new ones. They will also be collected in the future.
I bought two kilograms for my family and two kilograms for my parents. Then I went to the liquor store and bought five kilograms of wine. This was a good gift.
I actually saw a meat seller. This time I didn't have to take it from the space. I bought a meat with three kilograms of fat. This was also a gift.
She bought fifty kilograms of ribs and asked the butcher to cut them into strips of about three kilograms, which was convenient for eating. People saw that she bought a lot of pork bones and gave them to her.
It's really a festival, and there are a lot of meat sellers in the city.
I didn’t buy any more pork, but I bought a hundred pounds of beef, which was also cut into three-pound pieces.
Chen Miao thought about it and thought that she had spent 50,000 Su coins on it. It sounded like a lot.
After driving around for a while, some meat was left outside and the rest was put away.
Clothing here is very fast. "Sister, I will go to purchase the goods in a few days. I heard that the quality is very good, and it is denser and thicker than the current ones."
