North and South groceries

I heard that Luo Sanlang woke up, and in the past two days, some neighbors have come to visit one after another, but no one who came to the door was empty-handed, more or less brought some rice noodles and eggs.

For a while, the Luo family became lively, and the food also improved to a certain extent. Every morning Erniang steamed eggs for Sanlang, but most of them went into the stomachs of the two little babies, Liulang and Qiniang.

In the countryside, this is mostly the case among neighbors. If someone’s family suffers from natural or man-made disasters, they will more or less visit the door to show their concern and take some things over there. It is both a help and a favor.

Of course, like the kind of really down-and-out shabby households, there is generally no such treatment. It is considered good if there are three or five well-connected people who are kind and soft-hearted and willing to come to the door.You can't blame the world's indifference. The so-called human relationship means that there must be exchanges and exchanges. Seeing that they are a family that cannot be opened, how can they communicate?Families in the countryside are not very rich, so they have to live on a budget.

Although the Luo family is poor now, Luo Sanlang, a young man, is still favored by others. When their family had an accident, everyone came here once. Many villagers also helped Luo's father and Luo mother's funeral Now that Sanlang is awake, the neighbors came to visit him with eggs and rice noodles, which shows how much the people in this village value Luo Sanlang.

At the beginning, Luo's father and Luo's mother wholeheartedly supported Luo Sanlang's education, hoping that he would be able to succeed in the future, and then their family would be able to live a good life.The neighbors are not like this, the so-called one person can ascend to heaven, if any village or clan can produce one or two promising people, then the atmosphere of this whole place may be different from the past.

Since waking up that night, Luo Yong's spirit has improved day by day.In two or three days, he will be able to walk on the ground. At the beginning, he can only rub against the wall little by little, and then he can go out to the yard with a cane to let the wind go.

In winter, there is nothing to see in the yard. It is a bare small yard, except for three adobe houses and a fence wall, it is just a pile of straw.

There are a few scattered farmyards not far away. The houses in this village are mainly concentrated in the north. From this position, it is not very clear. The dirt road in front makes a bend, and a small slope blocks the view.Luo's yard is at the south end of the village, next to the entrance of the village, so it is convenient to get in and out.

Looking up, there is a large mountain. Among those mountains, withered yellow and dark green are mixed. Luo Yong knows that the mountains of this era are rich, not only with dense vegetation, but also with many animals. Needless to say, pheasants and hares, roe deer They are also very common with deer and the like, but they are all meat.

But Luo Yong didn't dare to think about those wild game at all, not to mention the jackals, tigers and leopards on the mountain, even if a pheasant was blatantly in front of him, with his current small body, he couldn't catch it at all.

It's already October in the lunar calendar. Although it hasn't snowed yet, the weather is quite cold. There is a biting chill in the cold wind. Luo Yong's body is weak now, so he doesn't dare to stay outside for too long.

Sighing, he went back inside.Speaking of which, Luo Yong now has something to eat, the space is still there, and there is no shortage of things in it. He confirmed this early in the morning.If it wasn't for this, he might still think that Luo Yong in the 21st century was just a big dream he had because he was bedridden for a long time, and it didn't really exist.

About how he came here and how he became Luo Sanlang again, Luo Yong has no memory at all. He only remembers walking alone on the mountain road, and then he came here and became Luo Sanlang, a He has the same name and surname as him, and looks similar to him, but he is a boy who is more than ten years younger.

Luo Yong has nothing to complain about based on his youth that has been gained in vain for more than ten years. In addition, he has space in his hands. Such a great benefit is beyond the reach of others. In this case, God loves it. Put him wherever you want, Luo Yong has no objection at all.

"Sanlang, it's time to eat." Luo Yong was walking into the house with a wooden stick, and Luo Erniang had already brought Luo Siniang to arrange today's dinner.

This summer, several fields of their family on the slope were buried. In addition to a subsequent funeral and Luo Sanlang’s bottomless medicine jar, the family has basically been emptied, with neither much land nor much food. What I ate was still millet porridge with little water in the soup, a few miscellaneous noodles and some pickled vegetables.

During the Zhenguan period, people could not help illegally smuggling salt, and the salt tax was very light, and the price of salt was not high, so cured meat and vegetables were more popular among the people, and it was not a pity to use more salt.

"Brother, eat more." Si Niang kept looking at the pancakes, but she didn't dare to reach out to take them because Saburo didn't move, or Er Niang would sue the aunt There, she had to be cleaned up again.

"You guys eat too." Luo Yong said, and divided the pancakes on the table.

There was not much food in the house, so Erniang didn't dare to eat and use it, so Erniang made four big, two small and six cakes with a little mixed noodles, one of which was the biggest, Luo Yong didn't want it himself, so he gave it to Er Niang Mother, most of the work in the family is now on this little girl's shoulders, if you don't eat more, your body will definitely not be able to bear it.

The remaining few cakes were divided among others, Luo Yong asked for the smallest one, and the other small cake was in Luo Qiniang's hands. This little girl was smart at first glance, she was three years old, but in fact she was only one. At the age of more than a year, she doesn't even know how to speak, but now she knows that the cake Luo Yong gave her is smaller than others, and while gnawing on it, she looks straight at Liu Lang.

Looking at the Coke, Luo Yong broke off half of the cake in his hand and handed it to her. The little girl was so happy now, she grinned at him happily while holding the cake.

Liulang and Qiniang are a pair of twins, a little bit older, they are not disturbing at all, and they are not picky eaters. They can eat whatever they give them, even a piece of mixed noodles.But being born in this family that can't even fill their stomachs, there is really nothing to choose.

According to the memory of the original owner, the grain was sold very cheaply these days. In autumn, when the grain was harvested for each household, some grain merchants from other places were collecting grain in the county. A bucket of corn was only worth three or four pennies.

Converted into weight, a bucket of corn weighs about twelve to three catties. The current level of productivity is not high, and one mu of land only produces so many dans of grain, and it can't be sold for much money.

Low food prices are naturally a good thing for those in the city, but not necessarily for farmers. However, low food prices generally mean that the harvests in various places are good, and usually it is not easy to starve to death.

Qian Naihua is a good thing, but ordinary farmers don't have a few copper coins in their hands. The current Luo family is even poorer and has no money to buy food.

"Sanlang, eat more." Erniang disapproved of Sanlang's behavior of distributing all the food to his younger siblings, and stretched out her hand to pass the cake in her hand.In her opinion, it is time for Saburo to eat more, and no one can starve him when he is hungry.

"It's okay, I've been lying on the bed for a long time, I don't have an appetite, I can't eat that much for a while." Luo Yong laughed.

When Luo Yong said that, Er Niang believed it, and saw that since he woke up, his energy was getting better day by day, and he gradually became tougher, so she didn't worry too much.

In fact, he has no appetite at all, he has an appetite too much. He has been so hungry these past few nights that he secretly eats in his room every night. The little one went to the next door to sleep, and he took out food from the space to eat... Carrying this group of little beans on his back is really a crime.

After dinner, Luo Yong turned over the large and small pottery urns by the wall, scooped out a few catties of beans from one of the urns, put them in wooden basins, and brought in some fresh water from outside the house, and poured them Soak a pot of beans.

"Sanlang, why are you soaking so many beans?" Seeing that he soaked so many beans at once, Erniang felt a little distressed. Could it be that he will eat them tomorrow?According to this way of eating, the rations at home will not last until the beginning of next spring.

"You will know tomorrow." Luo Yong said with a smile.

"Brother, is this going to be eaten?" Goro asked boldly.

"Yeah." Luo Yong stretched out his hand and touched his head. This doll is seven years old this year. He is thin and thin. He looks only five or six years old and has a relatively introverted personality. Hear a few words from him.

"What do you want to eat?" Si Niang tugged on Luo Yong's sleeve, looking at him eagerly, with a greedy look on her face.

This girl is an extrovert. After seeing Luo Yong wake up these few days, she is not as stern as she used to be and just concentrates on reading. She can talk to them with a smile and give them food, so she gets close to him. Plus, he always hangs around Luo Yong when he has nothing to do.

"When I was studying in the county, I heard about this kind of food from a businessman from other places..." As soon as Luo Yong opened the chat box, the whole family surrounded him, even the seemingly stable second mother. He also put down the work in his hand and listened with gusto.

Luo Yong told them about tofu, what it looks like, and what it tastes like. By the way, he also talked about the various ways to eat tofu, such as mapo tofu, crystal tofu, dried tofu brain, and so on. Xiao straight swallowed...

In the past few days after waking up, Luo Yong has been thinking about how to improve the family's financial situation. Although there are many things in the space, they cannot be taken out easily because of unclear reasons, and things that are too modern are not suitable for storage. This small mountain village appeared, after much deliberation, it is most appropriate to make some tofu first.

According to the memory of the original owner, there is no such thing as tofu in their place. I don’t know if there are other places. Anyway, there is no tofu in their village, and they have never seen it in the county.As long as this thing is made, it will be an exclusive business, and because it is only a simple processing of agricultural products, it is not too out of the ordinary.

Making tofu is easy, and the materials needed are simple. The beans needed to make tofu are available at home. In addition, there are several bottles of white vinegar in the grocery pile in his space.For the first time, you can order tofu with white vinegar first, and then leave the physalis left over from making tofu. After a few days of fermentation, you can use physalis to order tofu later, which is the same as noodle fat.

Luo Yong plans to exchange tofu with the villagers for food. The weather is good and the country is peaceful and the people are safe. The villagers may not have much money, but they are definitely not short of food.

When the first batch of tofu is made tomorrow, he can send some to every household in the village to express his gratitude.It is not easy for the children of their family to spend the first half of the year in peace. Although they have the relationship with the Lin family, it can be seen that the people in this village are quite kind. Their siblings are young and helpless.
