Whose farming family has the male protagonist giving three piglets as a gift at the beginning?

Chapter 226 Moon cake? I'm afraid this isn't meat pie.

The aroma of bacon, maltose and wheat filled the air, making everyone salivate.

"Sister, I see you make a lot of them. How about we try one? Just save some for tomorrow. I heard that these pastries are most delicious when they are freshly baked. The taste will be different after this point." Su Zimu said seriously.

Su Ziling: "..."

She glanced at Su Ah Nai and the others and found that everyone was staring at the mooncakes. She was thinking that if her eyes could eat, her mooncakes would be gone.

"Okay, let's eat one and save the remaining one for tomorrow."

The mooncakes are quite big, each about the size of a fist, with golden sides, and the skin starts to peel off after you take a bite.

She uses lard and cake crust, so it comes out crispy. The pastry has a burnt aroma and is sweet but not greasy.

When you bite into it, you can still get a bit of meat filling. Everyone was obviously stunned when they found out that it was meat filling.

"Sister, are you sure this is a mooncake?"

"Yes!" Su Ziling nodded. She was quite satisfied. The meat filling was just right, with a blend of salty and sweet flavors, mixed with the aroma of crushed peanuts and sesame seeds.

"There are no mooncakes filled with meat. Don't they all put sugar and bean paste in them?"

Su Zimu curled his lips, thinking that he just ate a salty and sweet meat pie.

"Have you ever eaten mooncakes?" Su Ziling glanced at him.

Su Zimu shook his head.

"How do you know there's no meat filling in mooncakes if you've never eaten them?"

Su Zimu was stunned. Was he bullying him for his lack of knowledge?

When he was studying in the school, he heard from many classmates that the mooncakes were so sweet that they couldn't stand it.

Moreover, the crust of the pancake is very oily, so it’s okay to eat one, but I really can’t eat the second one.

They all told what kind of mooncakes they wanted, but I had never heard of any with meat fillings.

"You don't like eating it? You don't like giving it to me." Su Ziling reached out to take it.

Su Zimu turned sideways and said, "It's okay, just force your way into the mouth. I won't give you such an unpalatable thing. To avoid suffering, I'll eat it reluctantly."

What he said was quite aggrieved. If she hadn't seen him eating mooncakes, Su Ziling would have thought that what he said was true.

Although everyone thinks it's strange when you first eat it, the more you eat it, the more delicious it becomes and the more you eat it, the better it gets.

"I quite like it." Mr. Su caught the fallen pie crust with one hand and ate it with big mouthfuls.

Su Ziling: "Let's marinate two hams this year. You can make them anytime you want."

Thinking of the jar of radishes she had soaked some time ago, she said, "Grandma, let's go to my fourth uncle's house to buy a duck. Tomorrow, on the eighth day of the lunar month, we'll make sour radish and duck soup to drink."

"If you want to eat, just go and buy it. You don't have to tell us. Do you have enough money? If not, I will get you some." As she said this, she got up and went into the house to get the money.

Now that life is getting better, Su Ah Nai and the others are willing to eat it. It’s okay to eat better during festivals and other festivals.

After eating ice powder and moon cakes, there was no need to make lunch. Mr. Su and the others went to the fields to collect corn, while Su Ziling continued to fry the freshly picked tea leaves.

Su Zimu went back to his room to read, while Axiu and Su A'nai continued to wash the bacteria.

August 15th, August Festival.

We didn't go to the mountain col to set up a stall that day. When we got up in the morning, we hurriedly made tofu and asked the fourth uncle and the others to leave early and come back early.

After the tofu was done, Su Zizhong and the others all went to collect the corn. They thought that they wouldn't set up a stall today anyway, so they should hurry up and collect the corn. With so many people, they would have to harvest most of the corn today, and the rest would be harvested by then. Mr. Su and the others can take it in slowly.

Su Ziling took Su Zimu to break the bamboo shoots. The two of them took two sacks each and planned to bring back a load each, blanch them in water and dry them in the sun, and use them to fry meat.

Last night I tried the cold bamboo shoots. The whole family liked it very much. It has a sour and spicy taste and the crispness of the bamboo shoots. I mixed it in a big bowl and ate them all.

No, early in the morning, after making tofu, Mr. Su urged her to break the bamboo shoots. He didn't let her go to the field to collect corn, so he just asked her to break the bamboo shoots and come back to cook.

The distance was a bit far. After entering the mountain, Su Zimu was responsible for breaking the shells, while Su Ziling sat on the ground and peeled the shells.

The "click" sound of breaking off the bamboo shoots was particularly clear, and after a while, the ground was covered with bamboo shoots.

He brought the bamboo shoots over and peeled them with Su Ziling.

"This should be enough, right? I'm afraid we won't be able to pick it back."

Su Ziling took a look and said, "It's less after peeling off the shell, but it shouldn't be much."

In previous years, no one really ate these bitter bamboo shoots. What they ate was digging up some Dalong bamboo shoots, cutting them into shreds and pickling them into sour bamboo shoots.

No one eats bitter bamboo shoots, so in just a few years, a few bamboo trees here turned into the current bamboo forest.

The two siblings each picked two sacks. When they went back, they met many people who were collecting corn.

"Xiao Qing, are you also going to the fields to harvest corn?"

Su Ziling smiled and shook her head, "No, I went to dig some bitter bamboo shoots in the mountains and thought about drying them and frying them in the winter."

"Bitter bamboo shoots?" The man picked two baskets full of corn. "Bitter bamboo shoots are not delicious. If you want to eat bamboo shoots, go dig them up in the mountains at my house. The bamboo shoots at my house are the bamboo shoots of Dalong bamboo, or yellow bamboo shoots. Bamboo shoots are fine too, just outside my front door."

"Yellow bamboo shoots are more delicious than bitter bamboo shoots. If you like to eat them, just come and dig them. Your aunt and uncle are at home, and we can't eat them ourselves."

Su Ziling's eyes lit up when she heard about yellow bamboo shoots. Yellow bamboo shoots are indeed much more delicious than bitter bamboo shoots.

"Okay, auntie, I will come to your house to dig for you some other day."

"There's no need to change the day. Come when you have time. Anyway, there are people at home. These bamboo shoots grow very fast. They look different every day. If you wait for two more days, they will probably get old." The woman carried two baskets of corn, but she walked quickly. It's like there's no burden to bear.

"Hey, okay!" Su Ziling agreed with a smile, "Then I'll be polite and I'll come over and dig in a moment."

"You're welcome, it's just a few bamboo shoots."

A few people chatted and laughed, and separated when they reached a fork in the road.

When Su Ziling and the others returned home, the yard was noisy, and those children were selling ice powder fruits again.

In the past two days, they came twice a day, once in the morning and once in the evening. They were very happy to earn two or three cents a day.

Seeing that they could make money, their mother-in-law was also happy, and even boiled an egg for them, or gave them an extra sweet potato, so that they could eat more.

They were obviously happy to see Su Zimu back.

"Brother Erniu!"

"Miss!"

"Sister Ah Qing!"

Everyone said hello one after another.

"What are you picking? It looks quite heavy!"

Su Zimu put down the bamboo shoots and wiped his sweat, "Bamboo shoots, how are you doing? Do you have a lot of ice powder fruits?"

When it comes to the ice powder fruit, they are so happy that they can’t even see their teeth.

Seeing them laughing like this, Su Zimu raised his eyebrows, "Looking at you like this, it seems you are making a lot of money!"
