C51

"Rou Sang, yesterday afternoon, when your brother was passing by the school yesterday, he told Second Aunt that he would help out earlier. Peach Blossom, help Rou Sang pack her things after lunch. Do you have anything to carry these cabbages at home?"

Seeing her ask that, Mu Rousang pointed to the two big vats in the courtyard outside, "Let's use those two vats first. There used to be no wells, so it is rarely used, but it has come in handy now!"

At most in the afternoon, Yang Zixuan would bring his own batch of jars over. All she needed to do was to pack the pickled cabbage in.

After the group finished their meal, Qin Tieshu and Second Uncle Qin carried their big brooms and went to tidy up the pigsty.

Just as he finished feeding the pigs, a group of people arrived at the entrance of the courtyard.

"Uncle Zhu!" Mu Rousang went up to greet him with a smile. "I'll have to trouble Uncle Zhu to help when the weather is so cold."

Chusu was a rude person, he reached out his big hand and rubbed her head, causing Mu Rousang's eyes to immediately sparkle. Why did he have to use so much strength!

Then there was a dull drumming that turned her insides upside down.

"Sang girl, the Village Chief already told me yesterday that I will be eating dinner at your house for the day!"

The crowd behind him roared with laughter.

"What are you laughing at? I still have this kind of luck, you guys can only watch! "

The ground quaked.

Mu Rousang did not waste any words and rejected, "If that's the case, then I'll have to trouble Uncle Zhu!"

"What the heck? Hey, don't worry everyone. The village chief has already assigned the number of households to each individual household. Line up one by one."

As expected of someone who came from a peerless existence, Chusu had killing intent that ordinary people did not. He pushed the pole scale onto the ground and stood there arrogantly, his imposing aura sweeping up.

"siderocarpus, can I trouble you to help me carry the table to the steps! Uncle Zhu, after you finish weighing the cabbage, put it on this stage first! " He then went to the kitchen to tell Qin Er how to handle these cabbages.

Mu Rousang pulled Qin Er to the side and said, "Second Aunt, this is what you use to marinate the cabbages, so you don't have to sprinkle too much salt on it. You have to wait until these cabbages are marinated in water, then wash them and marinate them with seasonings."

Qin Er did not say much as he opened up the salt jar. He was shocked and anxiously pulled Mu Rousang who was about to leave, "Rou Sang, this salt is too expensive, isn't it too wasteful to use it to marinate vegetables?"

She really couldn't bear to part with this white and fine salt. One had to know that at home, all the food was ordinary coarse salt. Usually, when cooking, it would be melted with water and then sprinkled with a little bit of it when cooking.

Mu Rousang knew that all the salt in the dynasty depended on the sun to grow, and all the salt that could be dried in a year depended on the heavens to eat.

"Second Aunt, even he doesn't have to worry about that. We are only helping him with something, just do it!"

She had only made the coarse salt she had bought into fine salt, which saved a lot of silver. The salt was several times more expensive than the coarse salt.

Qin Er opened her mouth but in the end, she did not say anything, the main character did not care, she was just here to help!

Just as she finished speaking, someone called out to her from the carriage. Qin Er pushed her, "Go quickly, I'll clean it up after you're done."

"Second Aunt, can you handle this alone? "Why don't I get a few aunties to help!"

What nonsense are you spouting? Just treat it as helping the Second Aunt's family, I can just ask Tie Mu and Peach Blossom to help me. Qin Er smiled and said that she was not really greedy for that little bit of money, but she wanted to help Mu Rousang save some money.

"Thank you, Second Aunt!" Even if the Qin Er wanted to help, she did not explain any further. Since she could not finish her work and throw away the space, no one else would be able to notice.

When Mu Rousang came out of the kitchen, there were already many people in the courtyard, all of them had a pair of baskets at their feet. When Chusu saw her coming over, he shouted to the people around her: "Everyone line up, come one by one, don't snatch it!"

Was this when pork was being sold? Mu Rousang's head was filled with black lines as she floated past.

She went up to the table, picked up the pen and paper, and prepared to record, "Uncle Zhu, later on, tell me the name of the man and how many jin is he, I will only take ten thousand jin on his behalf, no more, no less, no more, the village head has already informed everyone of their numbers, let's begin!"

She wanted to make things ugly so that no one would want to take advantage of the situation and take advantage of the money. It wasn't like she, Mu Rousang, was the only one who loved money.

With the Chusu watching over him with ease, and with Second Aunt Zhu's help, the process of Mu Rousang picking up the dishes was still very smooth.

The six of them had to busy themselves until noon before they could finish weighing the ingredients. Mu Rousang let out a breath of air as she picked up a large bowl of warm tea and gulped it down.

"Damn it, I told you to come with me in the morning and not to cause any more trouble!"

Aunt Zhu shouted at the top of his voice, causing Mu Rousang to almost choke on her saliva. He rolled his eyes and coughed nonstop at the side.

"Wifey, lower your voice. Look how shocked Sang girl is!"

Uncle, who has the loudest voice, she used to think that Qin Er's was loud enough, but when she met someone like him, she would beat the drum, and her ears have always been bullied today.

Aunt Zhu, wrapped in a thick cotton-padded jacket, carried a basket as he walked in, "Sang girl, you haven't eaten yet, right? I brought the leftover meat from the day's sale. "

Mu Rousang looked at the two of them with teary eyes, "Eldest Aunt, how was your business today?"

Mentioning this matter, Aunt Zhu was so happy that his mouth couldn't close. "Thanks to your house collecting cabbages, I sold more than a few dozen catties of meat today!" After suddenly losing a sum of money, wouldn't everyone feel warm with this unexpected fortune!?

Mu Rousang only smiled, "If that's the case, then I will have to thank First Aunt for her help!"

"Why are you being so polite!" That child of mine sits in your car every day. Not only is the wind not blowing and the rain not pouring, but I'm not worried that he will freeze in the winter either! " Aunt Zhu was very happy in his heart. It was all thanks to his thick-skinned face that he had come to ask for help back then.

Mu Rousang and Aunt Zhu went into the kitchen to cook dinner, "Big Aunt, do you have any more cabbages?"

Aunt Zhu quickly scooped water into a gourd and rinsed the pot, "Sang girl, burn more. You have to heat the pot in the middle of winter to cook properly, cabbage? Also! "Why not? There are two pigs to feed at home. Even if you don't have any food to eat in the winter, you can still feed the pigs!"

Chusu helped people kill pigs and sell meat. The couple lived a light life and lived a few acres of living.

Big Aunt Zhu asked in a low voice, "Sang girl, do you want to accept more?"

Mu Rousang grabbed a handful of straw with the fire pincer and threw it into the stove, then raised her head with a cute smile on her face, "Big Aunt, I don't know either. I heard that the lord is in the business. "

Yang Zixuan didn't continue to purchase these kinds of items. She didn't know whether or not he would continue to do so, but she felt that these kinds of things should have a very large market.

"Besides, it's not something expensive. There are many people who would buy it for the sake of making the map light, just like ripe melon seeds. Aren't there quite a few shops in the town?" However, I can see that this item is not expensive, and that person might continue to sell it! "

She only hoped that Aunt Zhu and the Qin Er would be able to slow down their pace a little in terms of the use of cabbages, and that the two families would be able to earn a little more money from this.

"No problem with that. Just use it sparingly, even if we have to drag it out for ten days or half a month, we'll still kill these pigs!"

Aunt Zhu had been helping her husband sell pork all year round, and his eyesight was much better than Chusu. Just based on the few kilograms of meat he had taken today, it was also her idea.

The two of them moved very quickly. Aunt Zhu made some noodles with a knife, adding some pickled vegetables and some meat. There were also some green onions scattered on top. It was the perfect time to eat in the winter.

Everyone was already hungry, and each of them was holding a large mortar and eating it on the stairs.

Mu Rousang felt that she was already very happy, she had just arrived here to chew grass roots everyday, and now she could even eat white noodles.

"Mom, Rou Sang's noodles are so delicious, I want more!" Qin Taohua was the first to finish eating the noodles in his little mortar.

"Kid, aren't you afraid of you eating so much at once!?" As he spoke, he scooped some noodles from his bowl and gave it to her.

"They're from the Qin Clan, and there's something older in the pot. Sang girl just said that it would be more peaceful. Oh wow, this kind of meat that makes people want to cry is pure white noodles. It costs five or six yuan in the town."

"That's right, the last time I went to see Chun Mu, he took me to eat this kind of white flour. It's so soft and soft, but there's no way corn flour can compare to it."

"Everyone should eat more. If it's not enough, I'll have to trouble Auntie Qin to knead more. Today, I'll be full!"

Qin Er also laughed, "That's right! Today, we are going to have a big meal! "

A hot noodles made Qin Er feel hot all over his body. When he was done eating, he wiped his mouth and said, "Old man, quickly take the opportunity to wash the food while it is warm."

"Let me order a few carbon basin for everyone!" Everyone had been so busy in the morning that they had forgotten about it.

"I'm afraid these two vats are not enough!" Qin Er and Second Uncle Qin had already finished marinating the first vat, covered the dried lotus leaves that they had prepared, and pressed two small buckets of water onto the top. Just to maintain the crispness of the cabbage, they also needed to speed up the water loss.

"Two vats will be delivered today. They should be arriving soon!"

Sure enough, not long after, Xiao Tong brought two ox-carts over, "wood girl, it's not good for the town to go this way early, after we went back last night, my Young Master specially ordered some people to rush over to the county city late at night, and brought the things here."

He called the carriage driver to unload the things at the entrance of the courtyard, then carried the vat into the courtyard and looked at the neatly stacked cabbages by the side. He thought to himself that wood girl was very dependable, no wonder his master was praising her behind her back.

Mu Rousang looked at the pickled vegetables and frowned, "Big Brother Xiao Tong, it's been hard on you, quickly come in and sit down to drink some hot tea!"

Xiao Tong was really tired, he immediately followed Mu Rousang into the living room, "Big brother Xiao Tong, you guys haven't eaten yet, right?"

"Not bad. I had some hot steamed buns with me in the morning, so I decided to take care of it on the way."

Mu Rousang was really tired when she thought about it, "Since our family has a lot of noodles at noon, I will ask Aunt Zhu to make them for you guys."

Xiao Tong was originally feeling cold and hungry after travelling so far in the daytime, and he had initially grumbled about Mu Rousang having nothing to do. Now that she said it, he immediately laughed and said: "I really want to eat hot noodles, it's really troublesome for wood girl."

Mu Rousang waved her hands, "Of course not, big brother Xiao Tong is tired. Take a rest first, I'll go to the stove house and help aunt Zhu."

It seemed like Yang Zixuan didn't hesitate to do his job, and he was in a hurry to do it. Why was that so?

Mu Rousang didn't really know how to make hand-rolled noodles, and quickly found Aunt Zhu in the pile of cabbages, "Eldest Aunt, I would like to ask you to cook a pot of noodles first.

"Yo, why didn't you say so earlier!" I'll go get it for those three as soon as possible! " Throwing away the cabbage in her hand, she hurriedly rushed into the kitchen. She knew that the people who had brought these jars were the subordinates of that young master, so she couldn't be careless!

Xiao Tong originally did not want his young master to interact with this poor family, but now it seemed like it was a good thing that he had come. This wood girl was also very nimble, he thought that if his master knew of this news, he would probably go crazy with joy.

Very quickly, the noodles had been cooked, and all the pickled vegetables from Mu Rousang's house had been cleaned up by Yang Zixuan.

"Big brother Xiao Tong, quickly come eat some noodles. Those two coachmen, Auntie Zhu, have already helped send them off!"

Seeing Xiao Tong happily eating, he sighed and said, "Heh, what happened to wood girl? It must be that my heart hurts just to watch this little one eat noodles! "
