Chapter 472 Pickled Radish

"You kid, you're the one who called me Lao Wangtou? No matter how big or small you are, if people hear you, you will be said to be unruly." Su A'nai scolded with a smile.

Su Ziling stuck out her tongue, "Isn't that what I say? It's easy to say."

Grandma Su added: "You can use these first. If they are not enough, let your grandpa tell you later."

Just after midnight (15:00), the village became lively. Many people came out of their homes, carrying baskets on their backs, carrying poles in their hands, and several sacks in the baskets.

After greeting each other for a few words, they quickened their pace and walked towards the mountains. At this time, it depends on who can run faster.

After washing all the olives, Su Ziling hung them in a glass to drain the water. Seeing that it was still early, she lit a fire in the fire pit and boiled water to soak the radishes.

Su Mu and the others had washed the radishes in the morning, and the water on the surface of the radishes had completely dried by this time.

The big ones were cut into strips and dried in the sun, while the remaining ones were smaller ones, just perfect for soaking pickled radish.

The jar was sterilized with white wine, the radishes were put into the jar, and finally the kimchi water she had boiled was poured in. There were a lot of radishes planted this year, so she simply soaked a few more jars.

Cut the rest and dry it in the sun for a day or so before it becomes wilted. Then it will be used to pickle spicy dried radish.

It's already late to soak the radish, and Su's mother is still cutting radish strips, "Qing'er, do you still want these radish leaves?"

"Yes!" Su Ziling was preparing dinner in the kitchen and responded quickly when she heard her words. "Cut it out and marinate it tomorrow. It's delicious."

The last time it was used to pickle pickled vegetables, it had been pickled for a while. She was just worried about what to eat tonight, and Su's mother's words happened to remind her.

Cook some porridge, which is just right to go with the pickled vegetables. The water pickled vegetables are also sour. Boil a handful of broad bean pods and mix them with them.

While the porridge was being cooked, she peeled a bowl of peanuts, fried them for a while, and then mixed them with pickled vegetables.

Thinking of the fried tofu in the morning, she soaked a handful of fungus and burned a few hot peppers. After a while, she cut the fried tofu into pieces, added the fungus and roasted pepper and mixed it together.

With the addition of vinegar, coriander, and paprika, it is sour and spicy and goes very well with rice. The fried tofu is more flavorful, so mix it in advance. When you eat it, the tofu is filled with olive vinegar and paprika, which makes you want to stop eating.

There was a lot of tender tofu left, and she was worried that it would go bad, so she simply made another bowl of Mapo tofu. This tofu was the most popular. It was spicy and spicy, and the tofu was tender and had no beany smell.

Thinking of Su Zizhong saying that soy milk was very popular, Su Ziling simply picked up the bucket and soaked another two kilograms of beans. Now that she was soaking them, she would have to get up early to grind the beans tomorrow.

After the meal was ready, Mr. Su and the others hadn't come back yet, but the olive delivery person arrived. Suddenly, this deserted little courtyard became lively.

The adults carried two halves of sacks, the children carried a basket, and the old man carried half a basket. When Mr. Su and the others came back, they thought they had gone to the wrong place.

I saw that the courtyard was crowded with people, and laughter spread far and wide.

The father and son looked at each other, obviously not understanding what was going on. They tied up the cows, and no one noticed them. They simply went inside to drink tea.

Half an hour later, the yard became quiet, and the two of them walked out, "Xiaoqing, what are you doing?"

Su Ziling was gathering the olives when she heard the voice and looked back, "Grandpa, are you back? Just in time, we can eat after I finish here."

Father Su's mouth twitched, "We've been back for a while, what are you busy with?"

He took two steps forward and looked at the olives in the basket, his eyes suddenly widened, "Huh! What are you going to do with so many olives?"

"Let's soak it. It's the one we ate last time. Let it soak until the weather gets hot and then sell it. By the way, Dad, when you have time, go to Uncle Wang's house and ask him to help burn a few more big jars."

Father Su looked at the ones left in the yard, "Still burning? There are still some left!"

"It's not enough. Where are you going? The radishes my grandma cut have to be pickled, and these olives also need to be soaked. No, it's not just that. I estimate that they will eat up all the olives in the mountains in the past two days. By then, we won’t be able to fit the jars in our house.”

After closing the last half of the sack of olives, Su Ziling patted the dust on her hands and said to Su's mother who was still cutting radish strips at the side: "Mom, stop cutting it. Let's cut it tomorrow. Let's eat first."

"Okay, you go first, I'll cut this in my hand and come back." Mother Su replied without raising her head.

Su Ziling went back to the room to prepare the food. Most of the dishes were cold dishes, just a mapo tofu, but she put it in the pot to warm it, so it didn't get cold. After the food was set, Su's mother also entered the room.

"By the way, Qing'er, have you fed the pig?"

Su Ziling was stunned, "I forgot."

I was so busy during the day, and after the meal was ready, I went back to collecting olives. I really didn’t think about it for a while.

Su Zizhong on the side said quietly, "I've fed it."

Not to mention Su's father and the others, no one noticed them even when they came back. A group of people, all focused on olives.

"Have you fed it? Just feed it!" Su Ziling breathed a sigh of relief, "I soaked some more beans. I have to get up early tomorrow to grind the beans."

Su A'nai glanced at her, "You didn't take out the seeds I left and soaked them, did you?"

Su Ziling shook her head, "No, it was sent here by my third uncle and the others. Soy milk and tofu curd are very popular. I was thinking, why don't we collect some beans?"

Mr. Su's voice was a little low and indifferent, "I'll tell people later, and if anyone has it, just send it to their home."

"Well, this pickle is delicious and crunchy. It goes well with porridge."

"I pickled them with radish tassels, and I didn't expect them to be quite delicious. I thought I would cut the ones in the yard and dry them tomorrow, and pickle them later for ten and a half months before they can be eaten. If you can't finish them, you can pickle them. It won’t be a problem to eat it until the twelfth lunar month of next year.”

Pickled radish tassels are much crispier than pickled vegetables, but pickled radish tassels are the more delicious the longer they are marinated, while radish tassels are suitable for short-term consumption and will not be so crispy after being marinated for a long time.

Father Su suddenly said, "The peas in the field are ripe. You can pick them back and cook them, or make porridge. The broad beans are not good yet, they are still a little tender, but the broad bean pods are edible."

"That's good. I'll go pick some tomorrow and cook porridge when I come back. You can also fry spicy peas. The two cows will be back in two days, and the intestines will be ready to eat by then. Just in time to cook some peas, sausage, and rice."

Broad beans and peas that have experienced weathering are the sweetest. Whether they are eaten boiled, fried with spicy peas, or cooked with rice or porridge, they all taste great.

"If you don't have time, you can ask your elder brother to pick some for you when he comes back." Mr. Su suggested.

Thinking that Su Zizhong would pass by the pea field every day when she came back from work, and she still had a lot to do tomorrow, she nodded in agreement.

"Okay, big brother, please help pick some and bring them back tomorrow. Pick more."
