Defeat natural disasters with farming

Chapter 40 Chive Potatoes 【V end】

Before they had dinner, Aunt Ye and his wife left with their children, because Fu Niu was really young and couldn’t do without others, so Ye’s family didn’t ask them to stay, they just packed some farm specialties for them to take with them before they left. go back.

Aunt Ye firmly refused to accept it, "How can a daughter-in-law bring things from her mother's house when she returns home?"

Mrs. Ye forced the cloth bag into her hand, "It's not a good thing, every household has it, take it home and let the two children eat it."

Aunt Ye couldn't refuse, so she accepted it. The group of people led the donkey cart to the entrance of the village. Only then did Mrs. Ye stop, rubbed her grandchildren one by one, and said, "I'll send it here. You guys go back with the donkey cart." , These few days I will help feed the donkey first, and when your brother’s restaurant opens later, I will go directly to your house to bring the donkey back.”

"Okay, parents, you should also take care of your health."

Aunt Ye boarded the donkey cart in three steps and turned her head twice, "It's cold outside, you guys should hurry back."

After Niang San sat down firmly, Qin Zheng flicked his whip and drove the donkey cart out.

The old couple stopped for a while, and turned back when they could no longer see the shadow clearly.

After getting home and lighting the oil lamp, Mother Ye looked at the sky and said worriedly, "Second brother and second sister-in-law, why haven't they come back yet?"

They didn't say they would spend the night at the second sister-in-law's family.

Mrs. Ye waved her hand, "You are old, don't worry, maybe they won't come back until after dinner, let's eat quickly too. By the way, daughter-in-law, go to the house and call Tao Hua out, it seems that she is noon I didn’t eat much, and I couldn’t even skip dinner.”

Mrs. Ye responded, wiped off the water from her hands and entered the house, and came out with listless peach blossoms after a while.

At this time, the food was already set on the kang table, and Mrs. Ye handed her a steamed bun, "Don't be so embarrassing, you are angry here, people have already forgotten about it, so it's not worth it."

Taohua took the steamed bun and ate it absently, "Got it, grandma."

What she is actually sad about is the cousins ​​of grandma's family. They used to have a good relationship, but since seeing the silver bracelet on her hand, their attitude has changed. It was really sad to hear her.

But after all, they didn't play together every day, and Taohua regained her spirit after wilting for a while.

Sister Ye was relieved when she saw that she had eaten a bowl full of porridge.

When they finished their work after dinner, Ye Laoer's family came back, and they all had smiles on their faces when they came back.

Mrs. Ye asked puzzledly, "Why are you so happy?"

"My younger brother and sister were diagnosed with a happy event, because I didn't tell anyone about it in three months, so I only found out today." The second sister-in-law Ye smiled.

Her younger siblings have been married for five or six years, and they have never had children, and now their wish has been fulfilled.

"Hey, this is a happy event." Mrs. Ye was also very happy, "Are your parents in good health?"

The second sister-in-law Ye changed her clothes, took over the work from the old lady Ye, and said with a smile: "Well, since I found out that my younger brother and sister are married, there is no sore waist or leg pain, and I can eat three bowls of rice in one meal. "

"My father said, when the child is born, please invite us to the full moon ceremony."

In fact, they don't pay much attention to the three full moons here. If you want to say that it is also a matter of rich and noble families, but Ye Ersao's family has been looking forward to their child for many years, and the point is normal.

While chatting, Ye Yu suddenly yawned, and then, as if infected, several other children also covered their mouths, yawning continuously for a while.

Seeing this, Mrs. Ye put down the dough she was kneading, and urged: "It's getting late, pack up and go to bed."

But after only a quarter of an hour, Ye Yu finished washing and lay down on the bed. He looked sideways at Chu Xufeng, "How are you leaving tomorrow?"

"My father sent someone to pick me up. Calculating the time, it should be tomorrow morning." Chu Xufeng said gently.

"That's it, then go to rest early, you will be exhausted tomorrow."

Ye Yu could not help but shudder whenever he thought of the hardships of traveling far away. Now even the official road is very rough, and walking back and forth will be scattered.

No matter how good Chu Xufeng's physical fitness is, he should be tired or tired.

Chu Xufeng nodded, he got up and blew out the oil lamp on the table, and whispered, "Good night."

"Good night."

After breakfast the next day, Chu Xufeng and Jia Yi had already packed their luggage and were ready to leave as soon as they arrived.

As soon as half of the salted egg yolk was exposed in the sky, a group of three people came riding on horses.

The leader was a middle-aged man with an unshaven beard. When he saw Chu Xufeng standing at the door, he immediately got off his horse and saluted, "My subordinates will see the young master."

"Wang Dutou doesn't need to be so polite."

According to this title, this man is at least the commander of a hundred people.

Wang Dutou stood up and nodded at Ye's family, and said seriously: "The general sent me a special message, please take care of the young master during this time."

Old Man Ye answered, "No, it's just a matter of convenience."

Their family kept the tofu recipe in the name of General Chu, which is really wrong to say.

Wang Du shook his head disapprovingly, "It's the New Year's Eve still bothering you, our general is really sorry."

After he finished speaking, he took out a silver ticket from his close pocket, "This is 100 taels of silver, with General Chu's emblem on it, and you can go to the bank ticket shop to exchange it for money in the future."

In fact, the important thing is not the bank note itself, but the unique emblem of General Chu on it, which means that if something happens in the future, the Ye family can borrow the name of General Chu, and General Chu is their biggest backer.

Mrs. Ye confiscated it. This is a big favor and it is really inappropriate.

But Wang Dutou directly forced the banknote to Boss Ye, and Chu Xufeng also persuaded him: "Just keep it, for my father, this is really not a big deal."

Boss Ye looked at Old Man Ye and Mrs. Ye at a loss, and he didn't know whether to accept them or not.

Seeing the old couple look at each other, the old man Ye looked back and nodded, "Then we will keep it."

Wang Dutou smiled when he heard the words, "It should be so."

After saying this, they were about to leave. A soldier jumped off the horse and gave the horse to Jia Yi and Chu Xufeng, while he himself rode on the same horse with another soldier.

"Wait." Mrs. Ye suddenly stopped them.

Before they left, he quickly took out the hard pancakes and bacon bean paste wrapped in cloth.

"Take it as dry food on the road. It's all just made this morning. It's fresh. It can be eaten for a month without spoiling."

The method is simple, and the taste is naturally not very good, but it is enough to fill your stomach when you are on the road.

Wang Dutou did not refuse, he readily accepted.

"Let's go here, you don't need to send it off."

Ye Yu followed behind and watched the group of people ride away on horseback, and only looked downcastly when they could not see Chu Xufeng's shadow.

I don't know what's going on, he obviously only got along with Chu Xufeng for a few days, but the two seem to have known each other for many years, there is nothing unfamiliar, but very close.

It was a little uncomfortable to lose him all of a sudden, Ye Yu thought so.

However, when he returned to the house, he suddenly saw a purse on the Kang table.

Ye Yu was surprised, but expected, he took a few steps forward to open his purse, and sure enough, a Tian Huangshi seal was revealed.

- Chu Yaojin.

Holding the seal tightly, Ye Yu couldn't laugh or cry, why did he leave the seal so simply, and he is not afraid of losing it.

Having said that, Ye Yu still carefully put the seal back into her purse, and then opened the kang cabinet to hide it carefully.

When he went out again, his mood was already clear.

Mother Ye gave him a puzzled look, "Aren't you sad?"

Ye Yu smiled, and ran to Mother Ye to help her choose vegetables, "Don't be sad, mother, what shall we have for lunch?"

"Your second brother caught a soft-shelled turtle yesterday, and it is still kept in the stove. Today, it is used to make soup at noon."

Mother Ye didn't ask any more questions, she kept on working, and picked out two handfuls of leeks in a short while.

"I'll bake leeks and glutinous rice for you later, stuffed with leeks and eggs."

Simply put, leeks are the enlarged version of dumplings. You only need two enlarged dumpling wrappers, adjust the stuffing, put them in and press them firmly, heat the oil in a pan, then put the leeks in and bake them until both sides are browned It's ready to serve.

The fresh leeks have a strong flavor, and the juice bursts out after one bite. With the salty eggs, the Ye family finished eating the whole basket of leeks.

At the end of the meal, Mrs. Ye was dumbfounded. She looked at her children and grandchildren paralyzed on the stool, and then at the empty basket. She was speechless for a long time before she found her voice.

"I originally thought I could keep a few for dinner, but I didn't expect you to eat all of them."

Ye Yu stroked her slightly protruding belly, and said contentedly, "Isn't it because you cooked it so deliciously? You ate it all without paying attention."

Ye Hai and the others also nodded one after another, and Ye He licked the corners of his mouth, thinking about it.

"Grandma, you should bake more chives and rice dumplings, this is much more delicious than steamed buns and steamed buns."

Mrs. Ye rolled her eyes at him angrily, "That's not true, this fried leek is a waste of oil and eggs, so it's strange if it doesn't taste good."

In their simple thinking, it is a luxury to have oil and meat on the meal, not to mention the leeks that have been rolled in the oil once in a while. .

Hearing this, Father Ye persuaded: "It's just a little oil and eggs. Our family can't afford it now. If the child wants to eat, just make it for him."

In fact, he has long wanted to say that their family can be regarded as a wealthy family no matter what, and it is not much worse than some small rich families in the county. what a bad thing.

Mrs. Ye was stunned for a while, but the words of the third child reminded her, "It's because I was thinking less."

She still thought about saving money at home, but looking at it now, she really didn't need to do this anymore, at least it was okay to meet some small demands of the children.

"Okay, I'll bake leeks and pancakes for you tomorrow, eat as much as you want."

Ye He immediately became excited and exclaimed, "That's great!"
