"Mom, should we move the kimchi jars onto the donkey cart? It's a bit crowded inside." Boss Yun looked at the kimchi jars in embarrassment.

Zhang understood immediately that Boss Yun and his men must have lined up the kimchi jars. The kimchi jars were all made of pottery, and straw ropes were placed between the jars to prevent them from colliding with each other.

In this case, the kimchi jar will take up even more space.

"Put a few on the newly bought mule cart, and the rest will have to be put on the donkey cart." Zhang made the decision quickly.

After listening to Zhang's words, Boss Yun and his men started moving jars of kimchi onto the truck one by one.

Zhang washed her hands and began to knead the dough. By now, the dough had risen well. After she kneaded out the air in the dough, she evenly divided the dough into three equal-sized pieces.

Next, Zhang kneaded the dough into a ball. Then she used a rolling pin to roll the dough into the size of a chopping board. Then she evenly spread the prepared radish filling on the dough.

Finally, Zhang rolled up the dough layer by layer, and finally cut it into rolls of the same size with a knife.

"Mom, we have put all the kimchi jars away." Boss Yun shouted from afar.

"Then add half a pot of water into the pot, put a bamboo grate in it, cover it with a layer of cloth, cover the pot and start boiling. Call me when the water boils." Zhang kneaded the dough as she spoke.

"Got it, mother."

Boss Yun and his friends were busy as some went to get firewood, some went to find a comb, and some added water to the pot.

Zhang has been cooking for many years and is very skillful. She quickly kneaded the three dough pieces into dough, spread the radish filling on them, then rolled them up layer by layer, and finally cut them into radish rolls with a knife.

Zhang thought that she had already made the radish rolls, so she didn't need to stir-fry the vegetables. She washed a carrot and half a cabbage, and cut them into very thin strips. Then, she put the cut radish and cabbage strips into a clay pot.

Then, she put appropriate amount of salt, pepper powder, and chili powder into the earthenware basin, stirred it evenly with chopsticks, and finally added a few drops of sesame oil. A spicy and refreshing cold dish was ready. Zhang covered the earthenware basin with a cloth and put it aside.

"Mom, the water in the pot is boiling, you can put the radish rolls in."

"Coming, coming." Zhang walked towards the iron pot holding the lid.

The eldest Yun lifted the lid of the pot, the second Yun took the lid from Zhang's hand, and the third Yun continued to light the fire.

Zhang waited until the steam in the pot dissipated a bit, then she hurriedly put the radish rolls in. When the bamboo grate in the pot was full, there was still half of the radish rolls on the lid.

"I'll cover the pot and you guys continue to light the fire. I'll pick up the radish rolls when the time comes." Zhang took the lid and put it on the chopping board.

"I got it, Mom. Please sit down and have a rest." Boss Yun looked at Zhang with concern.

"I didn't do much work today, so I'm not tired. But we talked so loudly, but we didn't wake up your father and the other two. It seems that they are really tired."

"Mom, my dad has been in the city with Yiyi and Zirui for most of the day and bought so many things. He must be tired." Old Yun said in a loud voice.

"Mom, I like the two mule carts Dad bought today. Mules are taller than donkeys, stronger than donkeys, and run faster than donkeys." Yun Lao San was dancing with joy.

"Mom, this time you, big brother, and dad don't have to push the cart. We will all drive the cart, and you won't be as tired as before." Yun Laoer happily looked at the mule and donkey eating grass not far away.

"Mom is as happy as you are. I took a close look at the donkey and mule carts your father bought in the city this time. They are both very good. The donkeys and mules are both in their prime and are ready to work."

"And in a year like this, donkeys and mules aren't skinny, so the people who sell them must have fed them well."

"Speaking of the matching donkey cart, it's brand new, needless to say. I think the space is much larger than our donkey cart, so it can hold a lot more things." Zhang's analysis was very logical.

"Mom, I saw that the carriage of one of our mule carts is much bigger than the other one." Yun Laoer is a good child who observes carefully.

"Really? The two mule carts are of different sizes? I thought they were the same size." Zhang asked doubtfully.

"Mom, take a closer look at the mule cart my father drives into town and the mule cart we have at home. Are they different in size?"

As soon as he finished speaking, Zhang, Yun Lao Da, and Yun Lao San all started to walk around the two mule carts.

"Mom, the mule cart Dad drives is indeed bigger than the new one." Yun Lao San sighed, touching his chin.

"If your second brother hadn't mentioned it, I wouldn't have noticed this. When we eat, ask your father what happened. How could they not be the same size?" Zhang said puzzledly.

"Okay, you two can go and help light the fire. I'll continue to pick the cabbages and radishes."

"Mom, how should we clean up? You tell me, and we'll do it together."

Zhang glanced at the eldest brother Yun who was talking, and the third brother Yun who was restless beside him, waved her hand, and took them to work.

"You two should pack the remaining cabbages and radishes into baskets and then move them onto the donkey cart."

As soon as Zhang finished speaking, Yun Lao Da and Yun Lao San started working swiftly.

Zhang washed more than ten peaches in a clay basin and gave one to each of them. She took a bite of the peach and was surprised that the peach was not big but tasted very good, fragrant and sweet.

At this moment, the three brothers of the Yun family sat in a row in front of the stove, lighting a fire and eating peaches.

"Mom, the peaches my dad bought are so sweet." Yun Lao San became happier and happier as he ate. It had been a long time since he had eaten such sweet peaches.

"Yes, it's dry now, but the quality of peaches should be at its best. I didn't expect that peaches are so small but taste so good."

"This kind of peach is late-ripened and relatively hard, so it's best to eat it while it's still ripe. You can try one first to see how fresh it is, and then eat the peaches after dinner."

"Got it, mother."

"Mom, the steamed buns in the pot are smelling good, are they cooked?" Yun Lao Er said hurriedly.

Zhang opened the lid of the pot and pressed the radish rolls with her hand, and the radish rolls quickly returned to their original shape.

"Boss, go and bring the curtain over." Zhang said hurriedly.

"Here we come, mother."

Zhang picked up the steamed radish rolls in the pot and placed them on the lid. After adding two scoops of water to the pot, she put the remaining radish rolls into the big iron pot and continued to steam them.

"Mom, the radish rolls smell so good and look delicious." Yun Lao San said as he smelled the fragrance of the radish rolls.

"Let it cool for a while, and then we'll eat after the next pot of radish rolls are steamed. I guess your father and the others will be waking up soon, right?" Zhang stretched her head to look at the three men sleeping on the mat.
