A scholar becomes a landlord
Chapter 64
Especially after Wei Fan's treatment, he can barely use his left hand to draw a bow and arrow to shoot some pheasants and hares.
Wei Le asked them to bring over the pheasant that had washed its internal organs, stuffed some fungus and other food inside, and spread seasoning on the inside, then wrapped them with lotus leaves, spread mud on the outside, and finally threw them away into the fire.
The wild rabbits were peeled and roasted directly, Wei Le brushed honey while roasting, the aroma attracted a group of foodies, almost drooling.
So once the hare was roasted, it was divided among the people.Of the four hares, Wei Le and the four children split one of their hind legs, and the rest entered the mouths of Yi Feng, Wei Fan and the others.
While drinking wild vegetable soup cooked with wild mushrooms, Wei Le said that he is so full now, so don't regret it later.
He and the children just tasted some of the food prepared by Xiaoxue, and there was not a small amount of roast meat on one hind leg, and there was still room in the stomach after eating.
Then Wei Le stood up, found a wet branch and planed it in the fire.
Finally, six black mud balls were dug out.
"Did you forget that there are pheasants?" Wei Le smiled happily, but Wei Fan and the others were very depressed.Only Yi Feng received Wei Le's secret message, and still kept his stomach quietly.
As a result, the Beggar Chicken and the others only got one drumstick, and Wei Le, Yi Feng and the four little ones ate the rest except for the two left for Xiaoxue and the others.
"Sly, too cunning." Wei Fan held up a chicken leg, looking pitiful.
Such a fragrant and delicious chicken, but he only got one drumstick, and he was reluctant to eat it all in one go.Tasting the hard-won chicken drumsticks in small bites, his heart was blocked.
"Hahaha, who told you to eat so much before." Wei Le just ignored him!They were so fierce in grabbing food before, and they ate up all the wild rabbit meat. Originally, Xiaoxue had prepared a lot of food, and it was strange that the rabbit meat was not enough.
Cheng Yong didn't respond and ate his chicken leg.Brother Xiang Tian was similar to Wei Fan, eating the chicken drumsticks while watching Wei Le and the others sadly, but his stomach was not up to snuff, so he could only watch helplessly as people chomped down on the delicious chicken.
After eating the chicken, Wei Le practiced riding all afternoon again, and everyone put out the fire and went home.
When returning home, Wei Le could already ride a horse by himself, but Yi Feng still rode one with him.
Wei Le... he accepted it silently, he didn't say anything anyway, he hasn't thought it through yet!
Autumn is the harvest season. The fruit trees on Weile’s hillside are all ripe, most of which are pear and apple trees. Weile goes up to pick them himself, and the picked pears and apples are transported to the cellar for safe storage.I hope I can keep it for a longer period of time. These two fruits are considered to be relatively sustainable fruits.
There are also persimmons, I picked them quickly before they were fully ripe.Only part of it is left to soften and eat, and most of it is sent to the ice cellar to make frozen persimmons.
Then there are two other mountains, and there are some wild fruits.The wild grape Wei Lerang was picked to make wine, and the chestnuts were also peeled and dried in the sun for storage.Wei Le even found an olive tree, and Wei Le was delighted to see it.
Olive oil, here he comes.
All the olives were knocked down, and people even moved the surrounding seedlings to other places. In a few years, this area will be full of olive trees, and he will have a lot of olive oil to eat in the future.
Although everyone didn't know why Wei Le was happy, but since he wanted to pick it up, they should help him pick it up!Everyone worked together, and the olive tree was quickly wiped out.
Taking the home-pressed oil, Wei Le directly let Xiaoxue use it for cooking and mixing noodles, and let them use it to wipe their faces.In modern times, a small bottle is expensive, but now that you can squeeze it at home, it is strange that Wei Le is not happy.
"Lard oil is delicious, but it's too greasy. There's a little bit of peanut oil, too, but not olive oil."
Wei Le took a bite of the vegetables fried in olive oil, it was delicious!
In order to have vegetables to eat in winter, Xiaoxue has been drying vegetables at home with the summer heat these days, drying all the vegetables that cannot be eaten.The pigs in the family are also specially instructed by Wei Le, and the housekeeper Jin attaches great importance to them.The food given is sufficient, and the pigs are fat, at least weighing more than 200 catties.
Send the pig that is going to be a gift to the husband in a pigsty alone, and then go straight to the road like this live pig, and wait until the capital is killed and dissected in the suburbs before sending it to Liu Mansion.
Of course, the pigs I gave my husband as a New Year’s gift couldn’t be worse. These two pigs were so fat that they couldn’t even walk well. Such fat pigs were rare in ancient times.The main reason is that the ancients themselves lacked food, so the pigs they fed would naturally not be too fat.
Moreover, Wei Le also feeds the pigs snails, and feeds them the leftover soup of every meal at home. If there is no more meat, Wei Le should be worried.Fortunately, they are very edible and grow fast. Even the people in Li Village have never seen a fat pig weighing more than 200 catties a few times.
After hearing about it several times, the owners of the butcher's butcher's shop came to visit and asked Wei Le to buy them pigs.Wei Le still wants to raise it again. During the Chinese New Year, the price of this pork will rise sharply, and it will definitely make money selling it again at that time, so these butchers have no choice but to leave.
"After winter this year, two pigs will be killed first, and the bacon will be made. Xiaoxue, remember to prepare the spices."
Wei Le wrote it down one by one, not forgetting to give instructions.
"Yes, sir."
Xiaoxue wrote it down.
Everyone in the family has a division of labor, and Wei Le also has work to do.For example, adding sugar to wine and so on, all came quietly.Although he didn't care about a prescription, the emperor wanted it, and he couldn't let it spread to the outside world.The emperor said that he wanted to do business with people from the Western Regions, and preparations were already underway for this.People in the Western Regions love to drink grape sprinkles, and this business is simply tailor-made for them.
With a better wine than theirs, do they buy it or not?To drink or not to drink?This is a difficult problem.
There are still several months before the Chinese New Year, but Wei Le is busy.New Year's gift, New Year's goods, these must be written down first, so as not to get ordered but don't know how to start, and it's not good to be in a hurry!
Wei Le is not only busy with his own affairs, but also helping several other families prepare.He sent a pig to each family, and asked them to send New Year pigs to their families.
Yi Feng didn't have anyone to give away, so he asked Wei Le to help kill and make bacon for the veterans at home, so that they would have meat to eat when they went home for the New Year.
What else could Wei Le do?Of course he helped kill him.
The next thing is the matter of the Wei family. The Wei family has been fairly honest in the county this year.Although Wei Le refused their gifts every time they celebrated festivals, they still gave them over and over again.
The Mid-Autumn Festival is approaching, and they are sending Mid-Autumn Festival gifts again.
Wei Le took care of him and called back, and if he didn't accept it, he wouldn't accept it.Although he called back, he sent someone to send 100 taels of silver to the Wei family, clearly stating that it was their reward for being honest this year.
With this reward, the Wei family should understand his attitude.As long as they stay in the county obediently and don't cause trouble, he will protect them.
100 taels of silver The Wei family looked down on them before, but now they laugh at the 100 taels of silver.With these 100 taels, they can buy another shop or a few acres of fertile land.
The ancient people cared most about fields and shops. With these two things, money can make money, which is the best.The Wei family is not stupid. After seeing Wei Le's attitude, they managed their business slowly. Although the family's wealth is not as good as before, the family has become a lot more harmonious.Although each room has its own calculations, in general it is quite good.
Thanks to the careful planning of the housewives, they have also saved a little money after one year, and I believe they will have a good year this year.
After Wei Le reminded the Wei family, he was busy presenting the gift of the capital.Moon cakes must be made. In ancient times, there were only five kernel moon cakes and lotus moon cakes.
Although neither is considered unpalatable, but Wei Le himself chooses, he doesn't think he loves these two.
Let Xiaoxue make egg yolk mooncakes, fruit mooncakes and meat mooncakes. With his recipe and Daxue's craftsmanship, all the mooncakes were sold out before they were served.
It must be delicious to see them like this, so I added a lot and made more.Several families have them, and there are also mooncakes sent to the capital.
Each family distributed [-], and the capital even sent [-] over.As a result, my husband sent a letter saying that there were not enough points, and asked him to rush to send another batch.
Wei Le cried after reading the letter, Mr. is not in charge of the family, he doesn't know the price of oil and salt, he has added good ingredients to this moon cake, the cost of one moon cake is more than ten yuan, and hundreds of them are more than ten taels of silver.
In the end, after giving away [-] pieces, he said that it was not enough, so he asked him to give some more, and dozens of taels of silver flew away like this.
Well, for the sake of you being my husband, money and everything are just clouds, nothing more.
Another [-] were sent to Beijing. This time, the husband did not write any more letters. He probably knew that Wei Le would not give them any more because of Wei Le's stingy temperament, so he accepted it as soon as he saw it.
But the emperor in the capital had mooncakes for dessert.He only ate it himself, and gave it to many ministers and the harem. As a result, when the emperor came back to his senses and found that there were only a few dozen moon cakes left in the end, he became stingy.
No matter who came to ask for it, he would not give it, and he would not let it go.The third prince finally became anxious, and simply snatched food from the dragon's mouth, directly snatching away the two plates of mooncakes placed in the imperial study.The grandson of his family was crying at home and wanted to eat, but the emperor, being a grandfather, had the nerve to eat alone, it was too much.
"Unfilial son."
The emperor scolded angrily in the imperial study room. The emperor of the Qing Dynasty was not as perverted as the later emperors. Everyone except himself, including his son, was a slave. Therefore, the ministers and the emperor could joke a few words at ordinary times, and the relationship was also better than that of the later emperors. The emperor was much closer to his ministers.
The emperor was robbed of snacks, and it was hard to get them back.So he changed into plain clothes and ran to Mr. Liu's house to rob.
"Your Majesty, I really can't."
All the mooncakes that Wei Le sent to Beijing were freshly made by his own family, which meant that the taste was completely different from what they had eaten before.There are dozens of each, and you will never get tired of eating them.Especially the fruity ones, Wei Le controlled the sweetness very well. Since it has a sweet taste but not too sweet, the emperor likes it the most.
"Aiqing, shouldn't a courtier relieve me of my worries?" The emperor glared at Mr. Liu, he just couldn't bear to ask for dozens of moon cakes, and said that he would do his best for me until he died.
"Then the emperor first returns the four hundred mooncakes that I took away from my minister."
Four hundred of them have been snatched away, even if you are the emperor, you can't go too far!
Although Mr. Liu is not a censor, he still wants to speak up for justice today.
Wei Le asked them to bring over the pheasant that had washed its internal organs, stuffed some fungus and other food inside, and spread seasoning on the inside, then wrapped them with lotus leaves, spread mud on the outside, and finally threw them away into the fire.
The wild rabbits were peeled and roasted directly, Wei Le brushed honey while roasting, the aroma attracted a group of foodies, almost drooling.
