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

Chapter 443: Cousin's Proposal

Next February?

Su Ziling counted the days and found that there were almost three months left. It would be okay to get married in February. It would not be so cold by then. It happened to be that Li Zeqi was 19 and the girl from the Chen family was 18.

The family gathered around the fire pit and talked about the recent events. Yang Wanxiu mainly said it, and Su's mother and others echoed a few words.

The dim kitchen was illuminated by orange firelight. With the occasional addition of firewood, the fire leaves rose and fell, and the room also lit up and darkened.

Yang Wanxiu lowered her voice, spoke slowly and softly, and was accompanied by bursts of laughter from time to time. Everyone chatted until late at night.

It wasn't until Su A'nai yawned that they realized it was late.

Mother Su turned around and looked at the stove hole where there was no fire at all. "Is there still hot water in the small green pot? If not, add two firewood. Let's take a shower and go to bed tonight. It's getting late. Your uncle and the others are going to sleep today." I’m tired after a long day’s journey, let’s talk again tomorrow.”

"Yes, I just don't know if it's still hot. Let me take a look." Su Ziling stood up and took a scoop of water and touched it with her fingers. "It's still hot. You can wash it."

After washing, Su A'nai and the others went back to sleep first, and the two uncles and aunts were arranged in a three-bedroom house.

After Third Uncle and the others went to the county, this house became empty. They usually put some things there and no one went in.

It's been a long time and there's still a bit of a musty smell, but thanks to the daytime uncle and the others opened the doors and windows to ventilate the room when they first came to Su'anai, otherwise it might be really difficult to live in today.

Early the next morning, Su Ziling got up early to prepare breakfast.

Last night, Su's mother said that she would try lacquer oil for them today. Su Ziling thought that the best way to make lacquer oil is hot pot, but there was no meat at home, so it tasted a bit monotonous.

Finally, I went to my fourth uncle's house to catch a duck and came back to make a pot of oil-coated duck, and also made a sour papaya fish dish that they had never eaten before.

A dish of steamed eggs with kohlrabi roots, cold shredded radish, and a bowl of mushroom sauce. There were a lot of preserved eggs at home, so she burned a few green and red peppers and pounded them with the preserved eggs.

Finally, I soaked a handful of prunes made from purslane, added eggs and chopped green and red peppers. This dish is perfect for rice. There is no meat at home, otherwise making braised pork with plums and vegetables is a must.

The staple food is still brown rice and white rice, plus a pot of steamed buns, which is best paired with mushroom sauce.

Spoon a spoonful of mushroom sauce or prunes into the wowo, and bite into it. All kinds of flavors blend in your mouth. A mouthful of wowotou, a mouthful of prunes, and a mouthful of lacquered duck soup. The taste is incredible.

After the meal, Li Dazhu was still satisfied with the meal and said that the duck stewed in oil was delicious.

After breakfast, everyone sat under the yard to bask in the sun, while Su Ziling went to prepare things.

Su's mother originally wanted to go with her, but Su Ziling refused. She could usually meet her uncle and the others in the county, but Su's mother could not see them.

We didn't see her a few times throughout the year, so I asked her to come over and talk more.

Li Dazhu and his wife didn't delay much. They had many things at home and were busy. In addition, Li Zeqi was getting married in February of the new year, so they were even busier now and had a lot to prepare.

I just heard it, and it seems that there is not enough room in the house, and a separate wing is probably needed. The eldest brother has a family, and the second and third children are almost there. The uncles, grandparents, and the others are under a lot of pressure.

When they left, Su Ziling handed them the things she had packed, including a piece of original lacquer oil, a piece of lacquer oil hot pot base, five kilograms of tea oil, two jars of mushroom sauce they had just made at home, and dried mushrooms. Those also took some to them.

Thinking that grandma and the others liked to eat preserved eggs, Su Ziling went to pack thirty more preserved eggs, and also packed some of the green and red peppers she got back yesterday.

Finally, there were the coni chestnuts, most of which were sold in restaurants in the county. There wasn't much left at home, so she divided a few kilograms and gave them to them.

Mr. Su and Su's father dug up the kohlrabi roots that day. They dug a lot and kept some of them, while the rest were pickled. Seeing that Li Dazhu and the others liked it, Su Ziling packed some more for them.

The last thing was the vermicelli, which was packed with twenty kilograms for them. The roasted dried vegetables and seasonings were gone, so Su Ziling only gave them the vermicelli, and then asked them to cook it with the lacquered hot pot base.

Every time when cooking noodles, add some fried eggs, meat, green vegetables and the like, and then chop a small piece of the lacquered oil hot pot base into it. The noodles cooked with the lacquered oil hotpot base are also delicious, or more flavorful. .

There were a lot of miscellaneous things. When Li Dazhu and his wife saw the two sacks of things Su Ziling packed in return gifts, they were dumbfounded.

The corner of Yang Wanxiu's mouth twitched, "Xiaoqing, are you evacuating your entire home?"

As she said that, she went to untie the sack and said, "Why did you bring so many things? We won't dare to come next time if you do this."

Su Ziling stepped forward and pressed her hand, "Auntie, these are not valuable things. They are all wild products. They are not valuable. They look like a lot but they are not much. I just want to see that you like to eat kohlrabi roots. Just a lot of them. Pretentious.”

"These are all unwashed. They can be stored for a longer time. Don't the stems inside the kohlrabi roots have buds? When the time comes, you can bury them in the soil and plant them in spring."

"You can eat the leaves when they come out, and they will bloom. They are similar to garlic flowers. They can be eaten cold or stir-fried, and they can also be used to make pickles."

"You take it back and it will spread slowly. If you want to eat it later, you can go dig it in the ground."

Yang Wanxiu was really moved by the words. She still liked to eat this kohlrabi root. Whether it was the soup made last night or the chopped one, it was delicious.

Especially since she ate the steamed egg with Su Ziling pickle this morning, Yang Wanxiu liked it even more.

Especially the pickled kohlrabi root is absolutely delicious when used with porridge.

Thinking of this, her face relaxed a little, "Okay, I won't take the kohlrabi root. I also like the lacquer oil, so you're welcome, but you took too much vermicelli, right? So much, you have to take it. When will you eat?”

"Take less and give it to your grandma and the others to taste. Keep the rest and sell it."

Yang Wanxiu also knew how expensive her vermicelli was. In addition, she went to see the workshop yesterday, which made her feel that it was not easy to make the vermicelli.

At the beginning, she was shocked when she saw the vermicelli all over the yard, but after watching the whole process, she couldn't help but sigh at how awesome Su Ziling was.

This process is so complicated, and it is not easy to make. How much flour does one pound of sweet potatoes have? She made twenty pounds of sweet potatoes in one shot. How many sweet potatoes does it take to make it?

Thinking of this, she couldn't ask for so much.

"Auntie," Su Ziling said in a serious tone, "This is not worth a lot of money. If you keep doing this, I will be angry!"

"Besides, this is not for you. This is for me to honor my grandma. You have no right to say no!"

Yang Wanxiu laughed helplessly after hearing her words, but she wasn't angry. She knew why Su Zi said that. He just wanted her to take the vermicelli back.

"I know, I know, this is for your grandma!"

In the end, Li Dazhu and his wife picked up the things and left. Su Ziling and the others followed them out and gave away a piece. They did not return to the yard until they could no longer see their figures.
