Chapter 146 146. Luxurious breakfast
There were not many people eating in the morning, including Song Youde and his wife, Zhang Yanping who was sleeping in, and the seventh cousin's family.
All counted, nine people.
The seventh cousin asked about the number of people and re-evaluated yesterday's food intake, so he and the seventh grandma started cooking without saying a word, washing rice and lighting a fire.
Those who do farm work should not drink anything thin early in the morning, otherwise they will lose energy.
Song Tan just got up, and when he saw this situation, he couldn't help but laugh:
"Cousin Seven, why did you ask Grandma Seven to come into the kitchen? Didn't I spend one salary to hire two people? It's a big advantage."
The seventh cousin then said with a arrogant tone:
"It's just your salary of three melons and two dates. Isn't that what it means? Let your seventh grandma do the work. When you get older, you can't move. Once a person doesn't move, he will be wasted."
That's true.
If the elderly in the village gradually stop working, no matter whether they are unable to work or simply don’t want to work, their health will deteriorate very quickly.
However, what is the salary of three melons and two dates?
Song Tanxin said: Uncle Zhang on the mountain only gets two thousand a month!
But she didn't say anything else. She just said to Song Sancheng: "Dad, you guys have been tired for the past two days. Don't work today. I will go to my grandpa's house to pick up the pig food later. You can put it at home." Let’s weigh the bamboo shoots.”
In the past, Song Sancheng would definitely have said: How can my daughter do such a job?
But now, his face is full of smiles: "Oh, my girl is still filial! Okay, don't worry, your bamboo shoot dad will definitely take care of it for you!"
When I went to my grandparents' house, Song Youde had just come back from outside, and there was still some wet soil on his feet. At this moment, he looked at the vast sky and said firmly: "It will definitely rain today. Tan Tan, are you still going to sell vegetables?"
"Sell!" Song Tan was more sure than him: "It won't rain much today. Besides, I have informed everyone in the group."
"Okay." No one in the village took the rain seriously: "Just remember to wear a hat."
Grandma skillfully scooped out the bucket full of pig food with a big ladle. At this moment, through the pig food, she seemed to be able to see her big fat piggy...
"Tantan, I've been raising this little pig for more than half a month. I see it's growing very fast. It's getting warmer soon. Does it mean that we don't need to cook the pig food anymore?"
Mix some wheat bran and rice bran with water and mix it with other messy things, and the pigs can still eat it.
"Yes," Song Tan nodded:
"Grandma, you should have reminded me a long time ago, but I forgot and made you work hard for so long."
"What's so hard about this!" Wang Lifen smiled so hard that she couldn't even see her eyesight: "If you have something to do every day, your life will be complete!"
"Besides, that little pig is too small. It won't hurt to eat pig food for a few more days. It's safe."
Song Youde was scraping the mud under his rubber shoes with a piece of bamboo. At this moment, he also said happily: "Tantan, have you gone to the fields to see? The seedlings that were just removed yesterday look different today." , this year is guaranteed to be a good year!”
Song Tan thought, can he not grow strong?
Yesterday, I climbed up the back mountain in the middle of the night. The first few hours were given to peach trees, and the last few hours were given to fields.
The king, Dabao and Dabao were all happy, but only the three and four treasures in Chestnut Forest felt aggrieved.
Tonight, both rain and dew are inevitable!
Alas, the top is spinning during the day, and the top is spinning at night!
If there is not a good harvest, the face that is more than a hundred years old will be torn off and trampled on!
It's a pity that no one understands this pain.
Song Youde thought about it:
"Is there any other work to do this morning? If nothing happens, I will take a few nets and go to the ditch to catch fish. Yesterday, when the water was released, many fish washed down."
Song Tan wanted to sigh again when he talked about this.
If you want the fish to grow well, the spiritual energy of the two ponds is indispensable. I am like a sponge that is tightly grasped by people. Every drop comes out in the east and a drop comes out in the west. It is really squeezed out.
She thought for a while:
"Don't worry, grandpa, you and dad can set up some big stoves for my seventh cousin at the door. For our family to eat, it's better to be more spacious."
Even though they only had nine people at full capacity, if they really let go, they could still satisfy the appetites of ten or twenty people. It's not like asking the seventh cousin to huddle in his kitchen all the time.
"OK."
Song Youde looked at the sky: "Then you go sell vegetables early today. Your father and I will build a shed and build a stove in the morning. It will probably rain again in the afternoon. Then we will go and see your seventh cousin's old house. How to fix it inside."
Grandma Wang Lifen was still a little confused: "Isn't it...not busy anymore?"
The past few days had been as busy as a war, and she was a little anxious when picking tea leaves.
Now it's quiet enough to say it's quiet, but I'm still a little at a loss.
After thinking about it, he quickly tied the basket again: "Isn't this meal ready yet? I'll go for a walk on the tea mountain first."
Song Tan didn't know whether to laugh or cry: "Grandma, if you just turn around twice, I will only give you a salary of 100 yuan a day. Why bother? You have to be lazy when you should be lazy."
Wang Lifen also laughed: "Why are you being lazy when you help your granddaughter? But if you go around Chashan and come back for dinner, you won't be able to do much work...otherwise I will help you feed the pigs."
Ouch, I don’t dare to do this.
The mountain road is not easy to walk, and her grandmother's small body may not be able to withstand carrying such a heavy pig food bucket.
Song Tan thought for a while: "I see that there are a lot of wild vegetables growing in the back mountains. Grandma, if you are free, you can help dig them back."
Over in the peach forest, because the soil had just been turned over and exposed to the sun, the grass roots would not sprout so quickly.
But around where the spiritual energy was dissipating, the wild vegetables were growing vigorously. Even though it was Qingming Festival now, there were still fresh new buds growing.
——It would be embarrassing not to eat this.
However, grandma thought about it and said, "Ask your mother to go, and let her take some time to rest. I'd better go to pick tea, there's a salary."
Song Tan: ...
This 100 yuan salary is really useful.
She went back with the pig feed bucket, but saw that Wulan and Song Sancheng had already called Zhang Yanping and Qiao Qiao. The four of them were weighing and packing at the same time, and the speed was really fast.
Looking at the kitchen again, the smoke was curling, and Grandma Qi was sitting in front of the stove, constantly adding fire to the stove.
The pot was cooking fragrant rice, and the seventh cousin was standing on the side. At this moment, I don't know where he found a handful of sour cowpeas, chopping and chopping, the knife was flying fast!
I chopped the sour cowpea into small pieces.
I picked out the leftover chili peppers from yesterday and chopped them up as well, and beat a bowl of eggs.
Finally, I searched around the kitchen again and picked out a few yellow heart cabbages, and directly smashed the garlic cloves and stir-fried them.
When the dishes were cooked, the rice here had already bloomed. My seventh cousin skillfully took a ladle and scooped up the excess rice soup on top, and then slowly simmered the rice with the remaining fire.
The rice soup was not wasted, and it was directly put into the pot, and some frozen astragalus pieces in the refrigerator were added, and then two eggs were cracked. The green leaves and yellow flowers in the clear rice soup smelled tempting!
Everyone quickly set up the table and looked at the three dishes and one soup in front of them. Obviously, they were not luxurious, but they won in quantity. Everyone present swallowed their saliva.
How to say it?
Now that there is a chef, this breakfast is finally not a mess!
