Leisurely Farmer's Family: A Strong Man and His Broken Leg Son-in-law

Liu Yu stepped in, took a small horse, and placed it next to Changsheng who was sitting quietly.

When Nian saw him coming back, he asked if he had bought the pork.

Liu Yu then said that the butcher had gone home to get the meat, and he would deliver it in two-quarters of an hour.

After saying a few words, Liu Yu thought of Huang Ying she saw last night, and couldn't help but look at Chen Jinmei and explain the matter in general.

"I don't know when I came down the mountain. I was busy greeting guests who were burning incense sticks!"

Liu Yu and Huang Ying had no complaints in the past and no worries in recent days. Seeing that he was wearing thin clothes and shrinking from the cold, they wanted to treat him to a bowl of noodles yesterday so that he could warm up when he returned.

"It's okay. Brother Ying has a good foundation. When he was at his parents' house, he took care of most of the work in the fields!"

Chen Jinmei waved her hand indifferently!

After chatting a few more words, it was getting late, so Liu Yu urged a few people to go home quickly in order to avoid traveling at night.

"Don't be anxious, you have to wait for the pork to arrive and chop the dumpling fillings before leaving!"

If so much work is left to two people, I don't know how busy it will be.

"I can also chop dumpling stuffing, and Changsheng and I will make it here. It's such a long journey, and I can't even borrow a moon's shadow, so don't waste time!"

"The filling you made is not as good as your elder sister's, don't say more!"

Mr. Nian is very insistent. Business is really good today. At two o'clock in the afternoon, he has to sell one or two hundred bowls of dumplings. Yesterday, a large pot of dumplings was filled with fillings and sold out.

The diners were full of praises. Why are these people so supportive? It’s not because of the good taste.

Finally, the stall started out well, but Mr. Nian didn’t want to ruin it!

"Either I just chop the stuffing and season it or wait for the eldest sister to come!"

Liu Yu proposed a compromise.

"That's it!" Nian thought for a while, finally nodded in agreement, and finally said: "Chop the stuffing into the same thickness as today. Don't make it too broken, and don't make it too big!"

The meat filling is too minced and the taste is greatly reduced. It is too big and unevenly fat and thin. You have to control the degree of the filling to make it taste delicious.

He also told me that the vegetarian stuffing would be brought from home tomorrow, and that he would also send two bags of flour.

Liu Yu had no objection. He had no vegetables on hand and there was nothing he could do about the vegetarian stuffing.

When things were almost said, everyone felt that nothing was wrong, so Liu Yu urged a few more people to go home quickly.

After sending Nian and others away, Liu Yu and Changsheng were not idle either. They wiped the tables, chairs and benches again, put them together, and spread them out again when the stall opened tomorrow.

The floor has already been swept, which saves trouble.

After a while, the butcher also brought pork. Liu Yu took it and put it on the opposite table. She saw that it was really good pork belly, fat and thin, and beautiful in color. As the butcher said, it was freshly killed. Pig soon.

When I touch it with my hand, it still feels warm.

There were many tube and rod bones in the basket they brought with them. Liu Yu was happy to see them and thanked the butcher cheerfully.

Pork belly costs fourteen cents per catty, forty catties of meat, a total of 560 cents. Liu Yu brought the money jar, grabbed a large handful, and began to count the coins.

"I weighed this meat very high for you. It weighs forty-one kilograms! If you are not at ease, you can go to another place and have it weighed again!"

The butcher took the five and a half bunches of money and said cheerfully, this also explains why he didn't give me any more discounts.

"Thank you very much, uncle. Your business is old. If you don't have this bit of credit, the nearby villages won't buy it!"

When Liu Yu just took the meat, she thought about it in her heart and knew that the butcher was right.

This was considered a compliment, and Butcher Li was all smiles when he heard it: "Okay, uncle, I won't cause any trouble for you. If you want more meat, just go to my stall and say hello."

Butcher Li left, but Liu Yu and Changsheng had to get busy.

Fortunately, after going through experience, it is quite orderly.

Liu Yu fetched water to clean the pork. Chang Sheng sharpened his knife and began to divide the meat.

Cut half of it into cubes for making saozi tomorrow, and remove the other half from the pork skin and mince the filling.

Pork rinds are a good thing. They are delicious stir-fried with sauce and served cold. Changsheng packed away the pig rinds and began to ladle out water to clean the pork.

The two of them were busy for an hour. When dusk fell, the pork belly and stuffing were chopped into pieces.

After removing the charcoal fire and adding more charcoal, the two of them eagerly carried the money jar into the oilcloth shed.

At this time, no one was walking around outside. Everyone was in their own stalls taking inventory and comparing goods.

Liu Yu did not dare to bring the torch into the shed covered with oilcloth. She only opened the curtain that served as the door, moved the clay stove outside the shed, and started counting money with the help of this dim light.

Today, we sell hundreds of bowls of steamed noodles, and almost the same number of plain noodles.

There are about seventy or eighty plates of meat dumplings, and the vegetarian dumplings are worse, there are about fifty or sixty plates in total.

All the eggs and rice dumplings were sold, and Nian divided the remaining ones into three parts and took them back as snacks for the children.

The price of meat and vegetable noodles and meat dumplings is the same, eight cents each. The price of vegetarian noodles and vegetarian dumplings is the same, five cents each.

Sweet jujube rice dumplings are 2 cents each, and a bowl of Fuzi tea is 2 cents each. These are the prices sold separately. If a bowl of Fuzi tea and a rice dumpling are added, it only costs three cents.

An egg costs two cents per egg, and two or more eggs only cost one and a half cents.

The accounts collected by these foodies were all placed in one place, and it was unclear how much each item was sold for. Liu Yu and Changsheng carefully counted the coins and string up the scattered copper plates carefully with a rope.

The two of them became happier the more they hung out, hoping that the money jar would never be full.

After a long time, Liu Yu took out the last few coins and swung the money jar downwards. Seeing that there was indeed no money left, Liu Yu sighed and put the money jar aside.

The fire glowed red, and shadows hit the faces of the two people. Although it was not clear, the excitement of the two people could be seen.

After carefully counting the copper coins on his body and on Changsheng's lap twice, Liu Yu lowered his voice and said, "Twenty-seven strings are more." His voice was full of joy.

Changsheng was also happy to hear it, and he hummed twice.

Liu Yu pushed the bunches of copper coins piled up at her knees towards Changsheng and said with a smile, "You can count them too. Just touching this money makes people happy."

Changsheng didn't refuse, he pursed his mouth into a nice arc and started counting in series.

By the end of the count, the corners of his mouth, which were only slightly curved at first, were smiling brightly.

My husband is right, counting money really makes people happy.

"We just spent more than 500 coins on meat. Adding that, we have to have three taels of silver!"

"That's considered capital, and it's quite a lot now. The money spent must also be recorded." Liu Yu shook his head.

After counting the money, the two of them were looking forward to tomorrow. It would be best if there would be more people tomorrow. It would be best if it could be doubled!

The two of them just thought about it in their hearts. It was the official day of the temple fair, and everyone at home who could walk around had basically come to burn incense.

No one dares to neglect worshiping gods.
