Dinner was very simple. There were preserved eggs and ready-made lean meat at home. Su Ziling cooked a preserved egg, lean meat and brown rice porridge. When it was about to come out of the pot, she put a handful of chopped green vegetables and simmered for a while. A pot of preserved vegetables, preserved eggs, lean meat and brown rice. Porridge will be fine.

How could it be enough to just eat porridge when doing heavy work? Su Ziling steamed a pot of buckwheat steamed buns, mixed them with cornmeal and white flour, and fermented them with baking powder. They were also fluffy and soft.

Axiu likes to eat lard residue, so she fried purslane with lard residue, and added a little minced garlic and dried chilies. The color combination not only looks good, but also tastes more delicious.

There was no room for the other internal organs, so she stir-fried a kidney and a spicy stir-fried pork lung. The green peppers she had just picked came in handy.

The green peppers are picked young and cut into pieces with a diagonal knife. The dried pork belly is stir-fried with oil and stir-fried with the green peppers. It is spicy and appetizing.

Finally, she made a mushroom soup with the freshly picked gray gray mushrooms. The soup base was bone broth. Butcher Yang gave it to her today, so Su Ziling took one and made the soup.

There was such a large table of dishes, except for the one with pepper added. Mr. Su took a sip of the porridge and said, "This stir-fried dish tastes much better with some pepper. It's appetizing and goes well with the meal."

Father Su nodded, "Let's plant more crops next year. The harvest from the acre planted this year is also pretty good, probably not much worse than corn."

Mr. Su was silent for a while, "Let's start some farming this year. If you have pigs and cows at home, there will be more dung. If you plant dung, the harvest will be better."

"Okay, when it stops being busy here, open up the hills to the east. I remember there is water over there, and cultivate the land for two years. By then, whether we are planting peppers or corn, the harvest will definitely be the same." Su My father took a big bite of the steamed bun and accepted it without any hesitation.

"By the way," Mr. Su looked at Su Ziling, "How did you arrange the mushroom sauce tomorrow?"

Two hundred jars of fungus paste, which is estimated to be eighty jars per person, is enough for three people to deliver, but she bought five to six hundred kilograms of rice and noodles, so two more people need to go.

"When I came back, I asked Aunt Ji. She hadn't finished harvesting the corn yet. It's probably going to take another day tomorrow. I thought I'd postpone setting up the stall for another day and go the day after tomorrow. If I go to deliver mushroom paste tomorrow morning, I guess We need to invite two more people, and we probably won’t have enough people on our own.”

Mr. Su frowned, "Two hundred jars of fungus paste, isn't it enough for so many of us?"

"Oh." Su Ziling said in an upbeat tone, "I bought one hundred catties of white noodles, two hundred catties of buckwheat noodles, two hundred catties of black noodles and one hundred catties of brown rice."

"How many?"

Su Ziling: "Six hundred catties."

"How many did you say?"

Su Ziling frowned, "It's more than that."

Everyone: "..."

"There are also duck eggs. The duck eggs are not included. I also bought two old ducks to make soup later."

"What, are you going to run away?" Su's father asked stupidly.

Mother Su rolled her eyes at him, "What are you talking about!"

"I thought that the truck they came to pull mushroom sauce would be empty anyway. It's just a coincidence. It saves us having to find an oxcart to pull it. Also, I plan to steam more steamed buns, flower rolls and steamed buns. Didn't grandpa make another steamer? , we’ll steam them together then.”

The main reason is that the tofu business cannot be opened, so the income here will be less, and Ji Yunhe is also helping in the mountain col. Without the tofu business, she will have a free person there.

When the time comes, teach her how to make steamed buns and make buns, so that Su Ziling can have her hands free and no longer has to worry about that.

Mr. Su nodded, "Then there's no need to invite anyone. Just bring the cow up and our own home will be enough."

Early the next morning, the old Su family got up early. After washing, they took the cow out and put a saddle on it. Because the jar containing the fungus sauce was relatively fragile, they were afraid of being bumped by the cow when carrying it. , so I didn’t give it to the oxen.

Fortunately, the fungus sauce is not heavy. There is one box for every twenty jars, and two hundred jars is ten boxes. Five people can easily pick forty jars each.

As soon as the fungus sauce was installed, Su Yongan knocked on the door, "Uncle, are you ready? It's time to go!"

The door banged loudly, and it was Su Ziling who opened the door, "What time are you urging? When is this time? Isn't the appointment made at the end of Chen Shi (9:00)? It's only the end of Mao Shi (7:00) now, so it's still early. .”

As she spoke, she turned sideways to let Su Yongan in.

Mr. Su and the others were fixing the box when they heard the movement and looked up, "Yong'an? Have you eaten?"

"After eating, uncle, do you need any help?" Su Yongan stood aside and watched.

"No, no, I'll tie it here and you can set off." Mr. Su continued to tie it without raising his head.

Su A'nai came out of the kitchen, holding a pot of steamed buns in her hand. She steamed them last night. There were too many steamed buns and she didn't finish them. Su A'nai steamed the steamed buns this morning.

"Come on, rest on your stomach. I'm here for a while. I don't know when I'll be back."

After tying up the box, Mr. Su and the others washed their hands, wiped the water with water and took the steamed buns. "Why don't you put the baskets on your back and take a look at the tea in the tea forest? I guess it's almost ready to be picked."

"Yong'an, come here, have a steamed bun." Su A'nai handed him a steamed bun, "Xiao Qing bought so much rice and noodles, it's better to send them back first, otherwise it will be inconvenient. Cha Lin can eat before going to visit. "

In the end, the old man nodded. That was five or six hundred catties, not fifty or sixty catties. Food was more important.

After eating the steamed buns, everyone set off. Originally, Mr. Su, Father Su, Su Chuanbai, Su Zizhong, and Su Ziling each picked forty jars.

But now that Su Yongan is here, he doesn't let Su Ziling pick.

Su Ziling felt relaxed and happy. She carried a basket on her back, thinking that she would carry duck eggs and two ducks later.

Before going out, she returned to the house and put the mushrooms she had left last night in a basket on her back, including one of various kinds.

When we arrived at Sangshuping, it was not yet the agreed time, but the oxcart from Xinghualou was already waiting there early. Also waiting on the roadside were yesterday's grandma and yesterday's pillar.

In addition to them, there were two unfamiliar faces. Su Ziling thought that these might be other duck-raising villagers in Mulberry Ping.

Seeing Su Ziling and the others coming out, the waiter smiled broadly and quickly stood up to greet them, "Miss Su, you're here."

As he spoke, he pointed to the bullock cart behind him and said, "The food is all in the cart."

Su Ziling took a look and found that he was using buffalo. When she came back yesterday, she was worried that if it were a scalper, it might not be able to pull five to six hundred kilograms.

For buffalo, this weight is nothing to worry about.

Su Ziling nodded, with a smile on her face, "Sorry to trouble you."

"No trouble, no trouble!" He waved his hands repeatedly. When he saw Su Yongan following behind him, he raised his eyebrows and winked at him.

Mr. Su and the others stabilized the box, unloaded the rice noodles first, and then packed the fungus paste for him.

Su Ziling: "There are a total of two hundred jars of fungus paste here. Each box contains twenty jars. You can check and accept it."

The waiter didn't make any excuses, but opened the box and took a look at the quantity. After confirming that there was no problem, his smile became even brighter.
