Ancient Fortune Records

On the 29th day of the twelfth lunar month, it was snowing so much that it almost blocked the gate of the yard. Shen Li put on new clothes early in the morning, put on a sheepskin hat and ran out to watch his father sweep the snow. By the way, he built a simple snowman at the door. It's not very round, it's a bit like a big snowball on a triangular cone.

Mrs. Yu took a look, "The villains in the pile are pretty good, but something is missing." Going back to the kitchen, she got a carrot and stuffed it into the snowman's nose, and took two slightly round black charcoal to inlay on the snowman's nose. eye position.

Shen Li: Did his mother pile it up before? Why is she so proficient?

Shen Laiqiu watched the two of them busy while sweeping the floor with a smile, Shen Li saw that his father forgot to bring the scarf made of rabbit fur, and hurriedly took it out to wrap around his father.Yu fed Shen Laiqiu meat buns and steamed cakes to cushion his belly, and the villagers saw it, and hid in the wing room to do needlework in embarrassment.

After Shen Laiqiu finished sweeping the snow, he took two baskets of rice cakes and steamed cakes and gave them to the elders in the village. These are called blessing cakes.His parents had to send it, the patriarch and the village head had to send it, and the third uncle had to send it too. The uncle's house was far away, so the villager had to drive there in a donkey cart.When the times are good, this custom can still be maintained.When the year is not good, most people don't accept it, and they don't give other people blessing cakes.

In addition to this, he collected some old grain last year and planned to give it to the lonely old people in the village, which can be regarded as saving for the prosperity and well-being of the coming year.If Shen Gaoshi was still alive and kicking around, she might have to reprimand Shen Laiqiu for his prodigal behavior. It was only a few days ago that Shen Baodong was taken away by the conscripts, and he didn't know when he would be able to return. Now that he is sick, I'm afraid he can't control it. So many.

Once she got sick, Shen Daman had to do more work, especially he had to go to various houses in the village to grind beans.It was inevitable that he would be in a bad mood when he came back. He repeatedly accused Mrs. Shen Gao of not being able to raise his sons. Several sons were brought up to be deviant, and the youngest son’s moral behavior was also distorted. Even his daughter’s marriage was ruined. Dear, fortunately, Shen Daman is willing to give his daughter an extra acre of land as a dowry, so the Zhang family didn't say anything, and stopped talking about the divorce.Shen Gaoshi was even more miserable, she remembered to scold the members of the Zhang family, but she was afraid of ruining Shen Fang's affairs, so she could only bear it.

When the villagers heard about it, some said that the Zhang family was unrighteous, and some said that Shen Daman had done it to himself, they all sympathized with Chen Xiang's experience, and were relieved to hear that the marriage would not change.

It's just that Chen Xiang is a little disheartened about this marriage, seeing the people of the Zhang family like this, she knows that the life after marriage will not be easy.The family has given the field a lot, but she can't grow the land. She can only weave cloth, and the land has to be planted by Zhang's family.

If her third brother could accept the land and plant it for her, then he would share half of her grain. No matter how bad the Zhang family is, they wouldn't interfere with her dowry.It's a pity that when the third brother didn't separate, she never spoke for the third brother. Now that she has a request for him, how can she be willing to help.

Shen Laiqiu came to deliver blessing cakes to his father, and after delivering a few simple greetings, he left.There are several brothers, and the relationship is awkward. They just create an appearance of brothers and sisters, which is not in line with reality.Shen Laiqiu will always be the one ignored by his parents, even Chen Xiang's status in the family is higher than him, but Chen Xiang has never bullied him, the other brothers are different, they directly encroached on his rights and interests.

When Chen Xiang faltered and came over to ask Shen Laiqiu for help, Shen Laiqiu didn't hesitate much.It's only a few acres of land, and he has servants who can grow it.The little girl was implicated by Shen Baodong, and was afraid that the land would fall into the hands of Zhang's mother-in-law, and the output would be confiscated, so it was okay to ask him for help, not to mention, Shen Laiqiu was not at a loss for half a share.

Chen Xiang gratefully took a purse to her third brother: "Third brother, I was not good enough to respect you before, thank you for not taking it to heart." Her third brother is a kind person, this field, no one can rest assured She is most at ease only for the third brother.

Shen Laiqiu nodded in dispensation, my sister, it's only right to help me out, it's a lie to say that I don't mind about the past, but people have to look forward, don't they?

After grinding the beans, Shen Daman was so tired that he was out of breath. Seeing Shen Laiqiu, he was very happy, and asked with great interest how Zhuangzi's land and house were doing, and whether they had been cleaned. Shen Laiqiu simply answered, no more words. .

Shen Daman looked at Shen Laiqiu's calm expression, and knew that his third son didn't like to talk to him about these things, so he didn't mention it again.When the family was separated, if it was fairer, maybe Laiqiu would be more filial than now, it's too late to say anything now.

After his father went out, Shen Li took out a steamed pancake from the steamer and ate it slowly, his mouth bulging like a squirrel.The stuffing inside the steamed cakes is pork and cabbage. The pork is castrated male pork. It is not fishy, ​​and even tastes a little sweet. The ancient pig is authentic black pork, which is very fragrant.

A few days ago, I asked the butcher in the village to help butcher the pigs. Today, fresh pork is frozen in the cellar, and Maoxuewang can be eaten at noon.In the past few days, there is a kang at home, and the houses in the village and in the village have kangs.So Shen Li planted peppers again, wondering if they could grow them. If they could grow longer, there would be more seeds next year.

But without chili, pepper and peppercorns became commonplace.Shen Li recently wanted to eat barbecue, so he used a few iron racks to build a simple grill, skewered pork belly, mutton, sprinkled with cumin and pepper, the meat was roasted until it sizzled, and the burnt aroma and slightly spicy taste The taste collided, and he felt as if he had returned to modern times, but unfortunately there was no beer.But he can also make beer. If it is made, it can only be drunk at home, because selling alcohol in large quantities is a crime in this era.Wine is brewed from grain by default, and the officials are afraid that the grain will be collected by the powerful, so they go to brew wine. After all, wine is expensive, and money touches people's hearts.In the event of a natural disaster, there is not enough food, which may shake the foundation of the country.There is no need for the aristocratic family to be afraid, the emperor will be the one to blame at that time, so Shen Li can understand the emperor's rule.

The rattan pepper was made into pepper oil and rattan pepper oil by Shen Li. The pepper oil tastes a little numb, and the rattan pepper oil is more fragrant.He bought a large number of rattan peppers, made these two kinds of oil, and earned another five pennies for his family.This is the net profit after deducting labor and raw materials, which is considered a large amount of income.

Of course, many people followed suit, just learn. There is no patent fee in this era, but the people in the village are somewhat embarrassed. They bought gifts for Shen Laiqiu after earning money. It took a lot of thought.

Maybe Shen Li has accumulated a lot of experience in his dream, even if others follow the procedure to make these two oils, it seems that the taste is not as good as Shen Li's.Some restaurants in towns and counties heard that these two kinds of oil are especially delicious for some dishes, and the taste is very strange, so they came to Shenjia Village to buy oil one after another. enthusiasm.

In short, Shen Laiqiu's net worth is quite rich, and he even has new ambitions, he wants to buy land and a house in Bianjing, and then take Shen Li to Fucheng to study!Shen Li doesn't know anything about this, he still thinks that if he is a little rich, he will be safe, and if by the way, the Shenjia Village where he lives becomes a little richer, he will be very happy.Shen Li doesn't have any big ideals, it's not that he is cowardly, nor does he have no ambitions, but that he doesn't think he has the ability to change society at all.

In his heart, he is not a person who connects the merchants and farmers around Shenjia Village more closely, but simply produces some food, drink, and supplies, that's all. He doesn't realize that in this society, this is A particularly remarkable thing.

On New Year's Eve, his father took him to the ancestral temple to participate in the sacrifice.Before offering sacrifices, go to grandpa's house to have a reunion. The women stay at home to cook food, and the men bring the sacrifices to the ancestral hall and wait for other clansmen to arrive.

"Father, I brought you some novelty snacks for you to try. These are bought from the county seat. They taste good and don't stick to your teeth. And this sheepskin coat and cowhide boots, you and your mother each have one." He doesn't think it's a big deal, he buys it when he buys it, and other people can see what he wears and know who bought it.

"Alas, what are you doing with this money? Can I still wear enough clothes?" Having said that, he put it on happily, and kept touching the hem of the coat. Although Shen Gao didn't like Shen Laiqiu, he didn't I can't get along with a two-hundred-cent coat, so I naturally wear it on my body and show it off when I feel better.

"Third brother is well-off, so don't mention me, your nephew might follow you in the future." Shen Laichun smiled, feeling a little uncomfortable in his heart.They are all peasants, so why does Shen Laiqiu have such a big manor now?Everyone knows how to make tofu, and the prince is also the axis, so he gave him so much reward.

Shen Laiqiu also laughed, "Where is it, the two nephews have been studying early, and I am afraid that they will have a great future in the future. Our family, Shen Li, may not be as good as the two elder brothers, and we will have to rely on them in the future. "Damn it, my son must be better than your son!There is a savvy in reading, and he will teach him to read!There are gods entrusting dreams, being favored by gods, and there is a long-term father, so you don't need to rely on others no matter what.But modesty still needs to be humble.

Shen Laixia looked at them and didn't care. Now his third brother bought him cheaper, which made him more and more valued by his father-in-law. He found many companies online, bought at low prices, and sold at high prices. Made a lot of money for myself.In the past, he looked down on the third brother, but now the situation has changed, and only the eldest still thinks that the third brother is still the one who was easy to bully in the past, and dares to run on words.He is different—

"Third brother, you did the right thing when you married the third sibling. Look at your family, Shen Li, how handsome he is, with a good complexion and thick earrings. You are blessed! You will have a great future in the future, don't forget you Second Uncle!" He also patted Shen Li on the shoulder affectionately.

Shen Li: As expected of a man who married himself to the county seat, he and his father didn't have the same attitude before, but the change today is really astounding.

Reach out and don't hit the smiling person, no matter what, from the outsider's point of view, the three brothers still have a very good relationship.

Now the Shen clan has no shortage of money and food. This year, everyone is wearing festive brocade robes, with rabbit fur or wool collars around their necks. Except for Shen Laiqiu, everyone's ears are red from the cold.

"Laiqiu, what's on your ear?" A clan uncle asked.

Shen Laiqiu smiled from ear to ear, and just had no chance to praise his son, so he immediately replied: "Hey, my son, Shen Li, is afraid that my ears will be cold, so he insists on making me an earmuff. Our whole family is wearing it now. It’s made of rabbit fur, and there are also wool ones, but it’s not as comfortable as rabbit fur.”

The elders touched it with their hands, um, it was very good.So he stared at his sons who were tall but not filial, blew their beards and stared, implying that they also wanted such earmuffs, how comfortable they were.Men in the same generation as Shen Laiqiu also envied him for having such a good son, who was only seven years old during Chinese New Year, yet he knew how to honor his parents, and planned so meticulously for his parents.

Shen Li had a sweet mouth, and he yelled when he saw people, and received another wave of compliments, so Shen Laiqiu almost lost himself in the waves of praise for his son.

After the patriarch finished his congratulatory speech, the ancestral hall sacrifice was over, and Shen Daman happily took his sons back to the old house for dinner.The family has been separated for so long, and he misses the feeling of eating together as a family in the past. Today, this wish has come true, and he must have a good reunion dinner!

Seeing Mrs. Yu wearing such a nice red coat, Mrs. Gao couldn't help being jealous, but their family is not willing to offend Shen Laiqiu's family now, and their words are only flattery.

Wen's is a proud and arrogant person. She used to think that Yu's clothes were not good-looking, and she hadn't brought her dowry, so she didn't pay attention to Yu's at all. It's just that her father is very fond of the goods bought from Shenjia Village. So he didn't want to make Mrs Yu unhappy, so he said a few flattering words, which made Mrs Yu very comfortable.
