MTL - My 1995 Small Farm-v2 Chapter 438 freeze
Anyway, the atmosphere of the Dragon Boat Festival this year is too strong, everyone's enthusiasm, after the dragon boat race, let Wang Siyi and the others come for a long time.
The little dolls were also very excited, running around the farm with all kinds of small sachets hanging around their necks.
And pestered Chen Ling to ask when the big tiger could be pulled over.
Chen Ling said that soon, the big tiger would be seen soon after the wheat harvest.
"Wow, really? Really Uncle Fugui?"
As soon as the kids heard this, they jumped up and down around him, looking up their faces full of expectation.
Komori clenched his fists and shouted: "Grandpa, the big tiger is here, can you let me ride a tiger once?"
"I want to ride too, I'm sure riding Heiwa more majestic than Ruirui."
Chen Ling heard that each of them gave them a brainbreaker: "You bastards, you still want to ride a big tiger. When the tiger comes, it will eat you first. One bite at a time, crunchy."
"Uncle Fugui can deceive people, we're going to find my little aunt and Ruirui, and I won't play with you."
One by one, the kids stuck out their tongues at him and made faces and ran into the farm to shout for someone.
"Boss Chen is very attractive to children."
A well-dressed couple in sunhats walked along the bluestone path in the orchard and greeted him.
Chen Ling looked over with a smile when he heard the words, and asked them why they came.
I learned that I wanted to come over to buy some zongzi and bring them back for my children.
They ate at Wang Lixian's house. After asking, they found out that the rice dumplings were given by Chen Ling's family, so they couldn't help but came over and asked if they could buy some.
Chen Ling shook his head and said, "There are zongzi, and there are quite a few left, but they are ordinary zongzi, not grass-alkaline water zongzi, which can't stand being stuffed all the way. In such a hot weather, it will spoil if you take it home. It’s gone, so there’s nothing for the kids to eat.”
Chen Ling and his family like eating zongzi very much. This year, a water tower was built to keep them fresh, so they packed more, but they didn't think about selling them.
I didn't expect that someone would come to buy zongzi.
"It doesn't matter, just find some ice cubes from the county seat and take them back. We are people from our city, and we can travel by water very quickly."
The man said with a smile: "Our family often goes to Boss Sun's crayfish restaurant for dinner, and also to discuss business. This time, we came here to listen to Boss Sun's introduction...
By the way, in addition to rice dumplings, we also want to buy some fruit wine from the farm, which is very delicious and perfect for summer. Unfortunately, Boss Sun sells it in limited quantities, so it is rare to drink it. "
Chen Ling listened to this and looked at them carefully: "So, Sun Yanhong asked you to come over for the Dragon Boat Festival?"
"Yes, Boss Sun put up an advertising sign at the entrance of the store to introduce it, and many people came over."
The two nodded and said with a smile: "The main reason is that we didn't know that this delicious crayfish is actually the same place where the Millennium Giant Tortoise haunts. What a wonderful thing, everyone wants to see it after hearing about it.”
Chen Ling let out a sigh, thinking that was the case.
This is indeed the style of that woman. It is secondary to her doing so to win the favor of the villagers. It is also a great thing for the leaders to attract such a large passenger flow.
No wonder her brother was still thriving after his death, blooming everywhere.
"Okay, you don't want many zongzi, do you?"
"Not too much, just what the whole family eats, children eat, old people eat."
"Oh, then I'll give you a little of each, and make it into a zongzi gift box."
So I went back and took a small rectangular box made of reeds that my father-in-law used in his spare time, filled it with rice dumplings, tied them up, and hung a small red and yellow threaded sachet, which was beautiful.
The couple were very surprised and liked.
Chen Ling opened the door of the barn at this time, "Come to pick the fruit bar. The farm sells unlimited quantities, but the price is a bit high. You can try each of them."
"Oh, good."
These two don't seem like poor people, but they feel guilty after knowing the prices of those top quality wines.
Said it was no wonder that Sun Yanhong would limit the amount of wine, these wines are not for ordinary people to drink.
In the end, I had no choice but to choose some ordinary fruit wine, and gave up those aged fruit wine and wine.
"Good things for gifts and collections, Boss Chen, these wines become more valuable the longer they are stored."
"Haha, I owe you a good word."
Chen Ling sent people out.
Not long after, people came to the door one after another, some came to ask the dog, some came to watch the fish, some came to buy wine... Fortunately, no one came to buy zongzi again.
"Did you see, your brother-in-law's stall is quietly earning another 10,000 yuan."
Upstairs, Wang Cunye was smoking a cigarette, and said to his two sons: "Don't talk about it, boss, being a teacher is very good, and your personality can't do this.
But second child, you have to think about it, what do you want to do with your brother-in-law?
Running over mountains and ridges all day long, you can still do it when you are young, but can you still do it when you are old?
Now the wild things in the mountains are drilling out everywhere, how scary.
Your brother-in-law approached me several times about this, asking me to tell you something, but he wanted to speak, but felt unable to speak. "
"Father, you think highly of me. How can I have the ability of Lingzi? When the business fails, who will pay if I lose money? Not to mention how Lingzi thinks of me, I will definitely be ashamed to see my sister."
Wang Qingzhong frowned and said.
"Don't worry about losing money, your mother and I also benefited from your brother-in-law's favor and saved some money."
Wang Cunye tapped the cigarette pot under his feet, and pouted in another room: "In the spring of this year, the turtle prince of the reservoir went on a tour. At that time, there were not many people here. Your mother and I, the two of us, cook for others. Selling beef soup and so on, I saved nearly 20,000 yuan, most of which were earned on the farm when people came to the farm to play, Ling Zi said that he would not want anything, and your mother and I have no place to spend this money.
You and the boss are half of each other, this is the cost of your business. "
"Huh? Twenty thousand? So much?"
The two brothers looked at each other, obviously surprised.
Only then did I know how much money Chen Ling gave up after they came to keep the tourists out for the family reunion.
This brother-in-law, alas...
It is a lie to say that I am not moved.
But distressed is really distressed.
Even the more I think about it, the more it hurts, and I want to stomp my feet in pain.
What a great opportunity to make money.
Wang Qingwen was silent for a while, then raised his head and said, "Father, this money should be given to Ah Zhong. I don't have much money here, so I can't spend it."
"Don't, brother, I didn't say that I want to do business with Lingzi? I can't do it."
Wang Qingzhong was very anxious when he heard the words, and said he had never seen so much money? That’s not true, it costs thousands of dollars to stock up on food every year, but it’s all used to save capital, and it was given by his parents, and his elder brother also let him come over with 10,000 dollars , which made him panic.
Although he is honest and honest, he has a set of principles that he understands after doing small business for so many years.
For example, if the money is easy to come by, it will be easy to spend it.
He was afraid of losing all his money.
"It's okay, ask Lingzi at dinner tonight, listen to what he said, can he still make you lose money with his stupid head?"
Wang Cunye laughed.
Wang Qingzhong still looked troubled.
Wang Qingwen comforted and said: "It's okay, Ah Zhong, just treat me as a shareholder, okay? We two brothers will do this business together, first ask Ling Zi, if he can still cheat you, don't panic like this now."
He also didn't want his brother to always be in the deep mountains and old forests, getting up early and staying late, eating and sleeping in the open, hard work and danger.
Mainly still dangerous.
There was no way before.
Now that his brother-in-law can be counted on, and he is devoted to his family members, this must be reliable. Naturally, he doesn't want to let his brother go back to his old job.
Chen Ling didn't know what the father-in-law was talking to the brothers at this time.
was accompanying Zhou Weijun and others to talk and cut bamboo sticks in the pavilion outside.
Zhou Weijun and the others took a nap and rested, and wanted to go out for a while. When they came out, they saw Chen Ling preparing bamboo sticks here. Knowing that they were going to make barbecue for them at night, they also sat down to help.
Zhou Weijun felt tired after working for a while, and muttered: "Fugui, why don't you get some iron sticks, it takes a lot of effort to cut the bamboo sticks every time."
"Iron sticks are convenient, but the taste is not as good as baked with bamboo sticks."
Chen Ling said without looking up.
What's more, these bamboo sticks are some deep-rooted bamboos, which are used for barbecue, or directly use bamboo to burn wood for barbecue, such as roast chicken, roast duck, grilled fish, etc., the taste will be surprisingly good.
"Well, no wonder your cooking is delicious. You are really serious about eating."
"Haha, yes, we can't wrong our stomach if we are wronged."
"Uh, Brother Ling, let me interject. It's just bamboo sticks and iron sticks. Is it really that bad? When I was in school in Beijiao, I used car spokes to grill mutton kebabs, and it tasted just like that." .”
"Aren't you older than me, Haidong? Why do you still call me brother?"
"Oh, age has no size, the one who has reached it is a brother...
It is a great fate to be able to play Wusong together. You are stronger than me, and you can fight tigers, so you have to be an elder brother. Besides, when we acted as Water Margin, we called him brother, this should not be the case. "
"Haha, that's okay, that's okay, anyway, Haidong, have you ever heard of Red Willow Roast Meat?"
"Red willow barbecue, I seem to have heard of it, but I forgot where it is."
"Well, this one, Xijiang is quite famous, and it can be regarded as a very distinctive Xijiang delicacy. This red willow, which grows in the Gobi Desert and desert, is very drought-tolerant.
Use its branches to skewer grilled meat. Compared with ordinary grilled meat, the grilled meat is not only delicious, but also has a special fragrance.
No other sign, but it doesn't work.
My bamboo stick is also the same way. I use the secret sauce to match this bamboo stick. You will know the taste when you try it at night. "
Chen Ling explained it patiently. Seeing that everyone started to swallow their saliva, lowered their heads and began to sharpen the bamboo sticks seriously, he nodded in satisfaction.
Only Wang Siyi is not very quiet, and keeps using the time of serving tea and water for everyone to be lazy.
However, there is such a beautiful woman who hands them fruit and cuts watermelon from time to time. Everyone teases her and enjoys it.
She joked a lot, she yelled, "I'm not being lazy, I'll help Aunt Gao steam steamed buns at night, and bake steamed buns for you guys."
Actually, she didn’t mean to be lazy when she said she was lazy. She simply didn’t do this kind of work, and she didn’t know how to sharpen bamboo sticks. She almost hurt her hand several times, and she was too scared to touch it again.
There was also a small bamboo thorn pierced here, which I found out when washing my hands after eating the watermelon. I ran upstairs to find Wang Susu to help her pick it out with a needle.
"Uncle Fugui, I met a cattle killer on the road. I'll bring you some beef and tendons."
Little Sheep rode a 28-bar and stopped outside the fruit forest. Behind him, a **** back rushed out, and ran to Chen Ling with its tongue out excitedly, wagging its tail.
This is naturally the big dog that Chen Ling rescued with Ruirui soaking in the boy's urine. Now that he sees Chen Ling, he is so affectionate. He almost stayed at Chen Ling's house before.
"Ok, ok, ox tendon is a good thing. It happens that we are going to have a barbecue tonight. You can save a piece to eat."
Chen Ling took it over and took a look. The portion was quite a lot, and he immediately realized that this was specially delivered because he knew that his family had recently entertained a lot of guests and was afraid that there would not be enough.
"No, no, I will go back to the county to rest at night, and I will still have to transport fish in two days."
"Good guy, Xiao Fang, you've been very motivated recently."
"Hey, Uncle Fugui is taking care of me. By the way, uncle, your fish should be sold."
"My family is not in a hurry. The adult fish in the canal have been sold, and the rest are a bit more expensive and no one wants them. Ornamental fish have to wait.
How are you doing? Have you and Sannier come to the village for the Dragon Boat Festival this year? "
Ask this, Little Sheep showed a hint of distress on his face: "No, this year, the second sister and the fourth Nier are going back to their parents' home. Xiaojing sees a lot of people, so I'm sorry to go back."
As he spoke, he smiled shyly: "I'm looking at when the wheat is harvested at home this year. Is there anything I can do to help?"
"Well, the revolution has not yet succeeded, and comrades still need to work hard. I am optimistic about you, and behave well. Your father-in-law's family is not unreasonable."
Chen Ling smiled and comforted: "As for harvesting wheat, you don't have to worry about it. You can do what you need to do. We are taking care of your father-in-law. In recent years, everyone has helped each other harvest wheat."
Chatted a few more words, and then sent him away.
"Brother Ling is very popular, even if he sent such a large amount of meat, we couldn't finish it with too many people."
Wang Siyi untied the sack and looked at the beef. This guy was indeed a bit too much.
"Is there a refrigerator at home? If there is no refrigerator here, it will be broken if it is left overnight in this weather."
"It's okay, don't worry. We don't have a refrigerator to store it, but we have a water tower, put the meat in it, it won't break..."
Chen Ling chuckled.
Wang Siyi was confused: "What? Water tower? How does the water tower keep fresh? Is it soaked in water?"
Zhou Weijun and Ding Haidong were also confused.
I don’t understand how the water tower keeps the meat fresh. Is this the same thing?
Chen Ling shook his head: "How could it be placed in the water? It's like hanging in a well. I'll show you to see it."
"Yes, I'm going to take a look. I haven't seen meat preserved in a water tower."
Ding Haidong's curiosity was aroused, and he was full of doubts.
Chen Ling threw a bunch of bamboo sticks into the basin and led them to the small water tower.
It is said that it is a small water tower, but it is actually not small, but it does not store as much water as the serious water tower, and it is inconspicuous compared to the farm.
Under the steep mountain wall on the west side, the small water tower is more than three meters high, with a thin and slender body, with a big head on top, like a watchtower hidden in the shade.
There is a small iron gate under the tower body, and there are iron rings on the side, which are used as small ladders.
Chen Ling took out the key, stretched out his hand to open the iron door, and immediately a gust of cold air rushed over his face.
Zhou Weijun and the others couldn't help shivering.
"Hey, it's really cold here, I kind of understand why you said you can put meat in."
Chen Ling pointed to the top of his head and smiled: "Isn't that right? Why don't I tell you that this is a natural refrigerator."
Several people looked in the direction he pointed, and saw an iron ring welded in the center of the water tower, and iron hooks hanging from it. All kinds of meat were hung from it, complete chickens, ducks and fish, in strings, and Beef and mutton, and offal.
It is really dazzling, varied, and has everything.
Wang Siyi reached out and touched a sheep's head, and suddenly shouted: "Wow, there are ice flowers on it."
