   Chapter 30 Chapter 30 Buying Food

Li Yu went home and filtered out the soaked moldy bean curd and put it into a sauce tank. He poured in the white wine, pepper noodles, salt and rapeseed oil in proportion. Put it in the chili sauce according to the proportion of white wine, stir well and put it there for later use, and start frying the chili to make cowpea sauce and kohlrabi sauce.

  Zhao Di salted the dried cowpeas and brought them into the kitchen for Li Yu to use.

   Li Yu saw that it was almost time, and went to the wasteland to bring the ox home, set up the ox cart and sent the pickles to Shunfeng Inn.

   Shopkeeper Liu laughed as soon as he saw Li Yu, "Xiaoyu, I have to make a trip. I have ordered another 300 cans in a while."

   "Okay, Uncle Liu, I'll go back and pull it right away." Li Yu unloaded the goods and shopkeeper Liu settled the account, turned around and drove the bullock cart back.

As soon as Li Yu got home, he called Shang Zhaodi and Laidi, "Cousin, come and help me move the pickles." The two Zhaodi sisters ran out, and Li Yu said with a smile, "I ordered another 300 cans, but luckily they were packed yesterday. Hundreds of cans, otherwise it will be delayed."

  Laidi smiled happily, "Cousin, you must know that more people are picking up our pickles, and it seems that we have to decorate them."

   "Yeah! I'll start canning when I deliver it back." Li Yu quickly delivered the pickles to the inn, and went home and started canning with sister Zhao Di.

   The three were busy until Li Qing came back, only to find that they hadn't cooked yet.

   Li Yu smiled, "It's too late to cook, so let's eat the lump soup."

   A few people smiled and nodded, Li Yu and noodles cooked nugget soup, Li Qing and Zhao Di, who were slurping their food, kept praising Li Yu's delicious cooking.

   Li Qing went to the woods with Xiao An after eating, and dashed to the school until it was not far from the school hour.

  Li Yujue thinks that the children here are really sensible, as long as they have enough to eat and work, they never have to worry about it.

The three were too busy to make dinner, and the packed pickles were sorted and filled the whole room. After counting, Li Yu found that there were only two hundred jars of meat sauce left, and he planned to wait for Sister Zhao Di to come home and put the sauce in the space. The wild boars were sent to Hejia to be beaten and made into meat sauce.

After eating, Li Yu lit the oil lamp, mixed the watercress and chili sauce in proportion, and stirred them evenly. He moved the sauce tank and placed two rows against the courtyard wall. He scooped a layer of watercress sauce into the sauce tank and put a layer of vegetable oil. The bean paste is loaded and stopped at a position half a foot away from the tank, leaving some space to prevent the fermenting of the bean paste from spreading to the outside of the sauce tank.

  Li Qing took the oil lamp and watched Li Yu busy, "Sister, sir, let me thank you for the pickles."

   "Oh! If your husband likes it, give it to him next time, Ah Qing, put the oil lamp on the bamboo stand and rest early."

  Zhao Di pointed to Lai Di who was sitting and dozing under the eaves porch, "Aqing is about to go to sleep, it seems to you that Di is a rooster who falls asleep as soon as it gets dark."

  Li Qing shook his head, "None of you slept." Li Yu took the oil lamp in Li Qing's hand, "Be obedient, call my cousin back to the room to sleep."

  A Qing watched Li Yu nodded and put down the oil lamp, and went to wake up the cousin and brother and went back to the house to sleep. Li Yu and Zhao Di were busy until midnight to mix all the watercress, cover it and leave it to ferment in the yard.

  Li Yu went to the backyard to check whether the door was closed properly, and then sent a bale of grass to the big ox before returning to the house to close the door and rest.

   The next morning, I stirred the bean paste in the sauce pot, put the bamboo lid upright against the sauce pot, and opened the sauce pot to start drying.

   Several people worked non-stop for several days before making all the cowpeas, peppers and kohlrabi in the yard into pickles.

   Li Mei built a shed and brought the Zhaodi sisters back to Dongshan Village to help take care of the construction site. Laidi carried her rabbit and said to Li Yu, "Cousin, I'll come back to spend time with you when the house is repaired."

  Li Yu touched her soft hair, smiled and said, "Okay! I'll wait for you to come back."

   Li Mei told Li Yu: "Be careful at home, and when your aunt's house is repaired, she can come over to help you make pickles together."

   "Okay." Li Yu saw off Li Mei and his daughter, turned around and went back to the house.

  Li Mei bought the foundation in Dongshan Village, which is close to Xishan Village. There is a mountain area of ​​more than 30 mu behind the homestead. The land deed and the house deed cost 10 taels of silver.

  Li Yu's pickles business is also on track, and even if it sells at least one day, it can sell sixty or seventy cans.

  Li Yu knew that as the weather became colder, cowpeas and peppers would become less and less, so he put the recovered cowpea peppers into the space.

   After Li Mei's family went back, it was much easier for Li Yu to take and put things in the space, so he sent the wild boar to He's house to be cleaned and made into meat sauce.

  Li Yu was afraid that if he was not at home, Mr. Liu could not get the goods and lost customers, so he increased the pickles in Mr. Liu's inn to 100 cans, arranged and stored all the prepared pickles in the space to keep fresh.

  The straw in the field was also dried, and Li Yu spent a long time putting all the straw back into the woodshed and piled it up.

   After another five or six days, Chen Yaohui and the others, according to Li Yu's request, sowed the wasteland twice with fertile soil, plowed it deeply, and raked the wasteland.

Li Yu paid the wages to a few people, and when some of the helpers left, he said to Chen Yaohui: "Uncle Chen, I have a lot of energy and eat a lot, and A Qing is also growing up. My family's grain is paid for and tax is paid. There are only three or four stones left, I want to buy some millet or rice to keep at home, do you know which one has more grain?"

   "My family sells 20 to 30 shi of grain every year. Buy as much as you want!" Chen Yaohui said with a smile.

Li Yu knew that the village chief was in charge of the Chen family's family affairs, so he said to Chen Yaohui with a smile: "Uncle Chen, I will buy thirty stone at your house. You and the village chief grandpa say how much money others give for one stone, and I will also give it to you. How many."

   Chen Yaohui breathed a sigh of relief after hearing this. If he buys less, he can make the decision and make it cheaper. If he buys more, the rest of the family will complain. The price is the same as others.

   "Okay, Uncle will send it to you when he returns." Chen Yaohui strode away.

  Li Yu called Xiao An, who looked at Li Yu anxiously, "Sister Li, I'll go home after cutting the cow grass."

   "Xiao An, I want to ask if you can help me at my house. I will give you 400 wen a month. Would you like to have lunch at my house?"

Xiao An didn't expect that Li Yu would still hire him, so she said to Li Yu gratefully, "Sister Li, you don't need to give me so much, I know you take care of me, but I'm not worth so much, just give me ten cents a day. ."

  Li Yu didn't expect Xiao An to say this, but he also decided to respect the child.

   "Okay, just as you said, is your mother better?"

   "It's much better, thank you Sister Li." After Xiao An bowed to Li Yu, she happily led the cattle to herd.

After more than half an hour, the two brothers of the Chen family drove the ox cart to deliver the grain. Chen Yaohui's elder brother Chen Yaozu pointed at the grain and smiled at Li Yu: "Xiaoyu, the millet is all dry and crisp, it is the new grain of this year, six hundred Wen Yishi's car is ten stone millets."

   Li Yu nodded with a smile, "Okay Uncle Chen, I'll give you the money when you send it all."

  Chen Yaozu smiled cheerfully, "It's not in the way, I'm afraid you won't be able to escape."

   Several people brought the grain into the house, Li Yu asked them to put it under the eaves, and the brothers went back to pull the grain.

After running back and forth three times, all the food was brought to Li Yu's house. Li Yu paid the money to send Chen Yaohui's brothers away. As soon as he returned to the courtyard, the house that sold the little pigs came with two little pigs. Mrs Xie was hearty. He smiled, "Xiaoyu, the piglet has already been gelded. Is your pigpen still in the backyard? I'll carry it for you."

   "Still in the backyard." Li Yu took the Xie family to the backyard and put the piglet in the pigpen. Li Yu paid the rest, and the Xie couple left happily.

   Book friends, the doubanjiang made by Maojia is better than the one bought in the supermarket. It has no pigment and the color is beautiful!
