Chapter 10 Eight Zero Best Sister-in-Law (10)
"Yinyin, after breakfast, you go to grandma's house. Last time you hit a tree, your uncle came here after hearing about it. He brought back a sack of mountain goods, a bag of brown sugar, and thirty eggs. This time you won an award, give them some to taste, respect and filial piety."
Mother Xu explained one by one, "Come home for lunch. Mom will make braised pork for you. Don't be greedy when your grandma keeps it. Your uncle's life is tight and it's not easy..."
Xu Yin twitched her mouth, thinking of her as someone, is she so greedy?
"Mom, I'll go now. When the sun rises, will the meat go bad?"
"That's fine, you can take a steamed bun to eat on the way."
"..."
How does she eat while riding a bicycle? Forget it, mother's kindness, let's keep it.
Mother Xu's family is in Da'ao Village.
Although it is also part of Shuangxi Township, it is separated by a few villages and is in the mountains, so it is inconvenient to get in and out.
The road from the village to the countryside is still muddy in rainy days and dusty in sunny days, and the bus is impassable.
Bikes are also bumpy, but it's better than walking for two or three hours on foot.
Xu's mother knew that her daughter was delicate, so she would not let her run away.
But just as she said, last time after my daughter fell into a tree and fainted, my natal brothers came to visit with sackbags on their backs for half a day.
Xu Yin rode for an hour and finally arrived at Da'ao Village.
Da'ao Village is in the mountains, and many houses are built on the mountainside.
The mountain road was difficult to walk, so Xu Yin simply locked the bicycle under the big locust tree at the entrance of the village.
Still searching for the grandmother’s house in memory, a woman in the village recognized her:
"Ah! Isn't this the granddaughter of Lao Geng's family? Come to see your grandma and uncle? Oh! I even brought meat! How filial!"
"Ah Xiang! Ah Xiang! You came just in time, your niece is here, and she brought meat!"
Li Axiang, who came to Xikan Pier to wash clothes, heard the words and looked over. Seeing that she was indeed her husband’s niece, she put the laundry tub on the stone and stepped forward enthusiastically:
"Why is Yinyin here? Are you tired? Go for a walk and go home with your aunt to have a rest."
It's no wonder Li Axiang is so enthusiastic. She has been married to the Geng family for so many years, and she rarely sees her niece visiting.
Besides, he was carrying a knife of meat and two canned oranges.
Xu Yin followed her aunt, walked around and climbed a section of the mountain road, and came to her grandmother's house.
Grandma is old and has bad eyesight, but the granddaughter still recognizes it at a glance.
Smiled benevolently, let Xu Yin sit down, and asked his daughter-in-law to boil water and make sugar tea.
"Grandma, don't be too busy, and auntie, don't be too busy. I'm here to deliver some meat to you. This is the prize I got from working on the farm yesterday. It's not much, just enough for one meal. I just want you to be happy with me. "
Xu Yin handed the meat, two cans and a bag of brown sugar to grandma.
The canned food and brown sugar were sold when she passed by the supply and marketing station in the town, and remembered that there were a lot of them in the system warehouse.
Didn’t she dress up as a peasant girl in her previous life, follow the fleeing team all the way south, and finally find a place to stay after going through untold hardships.
That place is rich in sugarcane, and the energy points obtained through farming were exchanged with the system for a recipe for making brown sugar.
Rely on this to start a business, open a workshop, and build a manor.
There are not as many other fruits as sugar cane.
But after the disaster year, the weather gradually improved, and the harvest improved year by year. There were too many fresh fruits to sell, and there was no fresh-keeping technology in that era.
He gritted his teeth and spent a huge amount of energy points on the method of making glass.
Using her left hand, she carefully wrote it on a yellowed and worn-out sheepskin scroll, and when the honest and impartial imperial envoy, who was dedicated to serving the people, was passing through her jurisdiction, she hired a little beggar and delivered it to him.
After waiting for two years, the imperial court finally established a glass workshop.
Since then, the price of colored glaze has fallen sharply, and glass has become popular, which greatly provides convenience for a series of canned products such as canned fruit and pickled vegetables that she wants to make.
Produced by the system, the canned food and ancient brown sugar are no worse than similar products sold in supply and marketing stores.
Not only did I pack two catties of brown sugar, but I also found two cans of canned oranges.
She dare not take out lychee, longan, yellow peach and other supply and marketing stores that do not have it.
"Come here as soon as you come, why do you still buy these, and still have a relationship with grandma."
Grandma Geng pretended to be unhappy and said a few words, then smiled happily:
"Yin Yin is still studying and earning meat for the family! She will definitely have a bright future!"
Li Axiang is also enthusiastic and smiling:
"Yinyin, sit and chat with grandma for a while, and aunt will make you a bowl of egg noodles."
"I really don't need aunt, I had breakfast before I came."
"Then cook a soft-boiled egg. It's still early at noon, so fill your stomach first. Your uncle hasn't come back after he went to the mountain. It just rained yesterday. I think you can pick up some mushrooms or something. You can take some back home later. No. If you have something good, try it out."
Xu Yin is quite interested in Shanhuo.
Authentic wild mushrooms are sold very expensively in later generations.
"Does uncle go into the mountains every day?"
"That's not true. I only go a few times when I'm free. Didn't we engage in joint production contracting last year? Our family has a small population, relying on your uncle alone, and the stall is too big to be busy, so we contracted one close to home. I planted some local peaches and green plums on the small hill. This year they only bloomed but did not bear fruit. I don’t know if there will be any output next year. I am quite uncertain. Your uncle is a restless person, and he goes to the mountains every now and then to pick up some mushrooms, Dig some bamboo shoots or something, dry them in the sun and store them, and someone will come to collect the mountain products before winter, and exchange them for some money."
Li Axiang quickly cooked a bowl of soft-boiled eggs, sent them to Grandma Geng's room, and chatted with Xu Yin about the homework.
Xu Yin's heart skipped a beat when she heard this.
She remembered that after dressing as a fleeing peasant girl, a batch of improved fruit saplings appeared in the system mall.
All the products that are brushed out can be exchanged with energy points in the future.
After living her life, she used the accumulated energy points to exchange for several common fruit tree seedlings, including peaches and plums, and the fruits produced tasted very good.
Thinking about this, he logged into the system mall and took a look.
Well, the system really bloats.
A small peach sapling needs 500 energy points to redeem.
The money she earned from cycling these days is not enough to exchange for a small sapling.
Fortunately, after brushing out S in tractor driving skills yesterday, there are also rewards for plowing.
For every half acre of land plowed, 50 energy points will be rewarded.
It's a pity that there is still more than a month before the double grab, and even if there is a tractor in the village, she may not be willing to let her drive it.
So, this energy point is a bit like a carrot hanging in front of a donkey—it’s out of reach.
Withdrawing her thoughts, Xu Yin asked her aunt:
"Didn't our family raise any chickens and ducks? I heard from my classmates that people in the city like to eat pheasants raised in the country. They say the meat is firm and fragrant. The eggs laid by pheasants are also very popular."
"How many pheasants are raised behind the house? The running pheasants you mentioned are raised in the mountains? Don't they run away and can't be found?"
"Didn't we plant fruit trees? Put up a few more fences between the fruit trees and build a larger chicken farm, let the chickens find their own food inside, and peck the insects that fell from the trees, and the chicken manure piled up. It also adds fat to fruit trees.”
Li Axiang's eyes lit up when he heard this: "This is a good idea. When your uncle comes back, I will discuss it with him."
