C68

He pointed to a group of teenagers around fifteen to sixteen years old. "Catch some fish behind those mussel baskets and don't run around. Move faster. Think of the hot drinks, the kang, your wife, and your child."

"Haha ?"

The originally cold weather had become a hot topic as a result of that person's roar.

It was easy to find a full basket of river clams, there were also quite a few screws inside. Mu Rousang felt that the river clams looked a little familiar.

"Rou Sang, where are you going?" Little Tail, the little Peach Blossom girl was holding her sleeve with one hand.

"Uh, I'll go over there and take a look. Didn't you just pick up a lot of river clams? I want to pick up some of them and go back to eat. " Mu Rousang remembered to braised clams with ginger and garlic, saliva flowing out of his mouth. He had not eaten this for a long time.

"That thing can be eaten!"

Auntie Zhou, you don't need to make such a loud noise just because you're so angry. The sound was like a thunderclap in the spring, shaking Mu Rousang's head and making her want to buzz.

Shaking his small head, Mu Rousang then responded: "Yes, the clams can cure thirst and heat, while the antidote can cure the eyes. The clams juice can also cure the hemorrhoids." Really? That can be eaten? " Someone asked the question that was on the minds of most people.

Mu Rousang thought for a moment before saying, "This is what the book says. Dig out the clams' meat and feet, marinate them for a quarter of an hour, grab them with salt and wash them a few times. After that, boil some water and boil them once.

A group of village women did not know what was going on. They did not know what was going on, but they could all see the mosquito coil around their eyes.

The group of village women were still thinking about what the hell she was talking about, when Mu Rousang had already carried her little wooden bucket to the pile of clams.

She was not mistaken. The Fresh Water Pearls were not all of good quality raised by clams. Only those triangular-sail clams were the ones that were specialized in raising pearls.

"Little girl, do you want these?" An uncle walked up to her with a basket of oysters.

"Yes, Uncle!" Mu Rousang wanted to do it, but those Three Sails Clams were mixed with the other river clams and it was picked up from the muddy water, its surface was covered with mud.

"You must be the Sang girl at the back of the village!"

Mu Rousang was speechless, she had become famous wherever she went: "Yes, uncle, can I trouble you to pick me some river clams?"

She pointed to a small clam. "I want some like this, and then I want some of those big fat ones."

"What's the use of this?" The uncle was curious.

Mu Rousang did not want to say more, "Eat!"

Everyone in the village thought that Mu Rousang had picked up the noble young master, that Mu Rousang was merely in charge of managing the store.

The old man put away his curiosity and picked out a few small clams for her, then picked up about ten big clams.

"Yo, your bucket is full, how can you carry it back!"

Mu Rousang was also worried. No matter how strong she was, she was only five years old, and each barrel weighed a few kilograms.

Seeing that she did not look like a peasant girl, the uncle waved his hand. "Smelly brat, hurry up and come over here. This is my son.

"Uncle, there's no need to trouble this brother. My brother will be leaving school soon. I'll just put it on the donkey cart then." In any case, the clam wouldn't die for a while after it left the water.

She finally thought of a good idea as she did not like strangers entering her house casually, not to mention that Mu Jinzhi was not at home.

As the stars looked forward to the moon, Mu Rousang finally looked forward to Mu Jinzhi's return when the sun was about to set in the west.

Mu Jinzhi saw his own cute girl standing at the edge of the pond from afar. He jumped down from the donkey cart and carefully tied it to a willow tree by the pond before walking to Mu Rousang's side. "Little sister, why are you picking up so many river clams?"

"Bro, look, there are a lot of fish and shrimp in the pond." Mu Rousang liked to eat Red Braised Fish very much.

Mu Jinzhi smiled lovingly: "Un, I didn't expect to dry pond this year."

"Bro, have we shared fish before?" Mu Rousang's mind filled with Red Braised Fish floated past, and upon hearing that, she casually asked.

"Yeah, we shared it a few years ago." It was just that his father had just passed away, and his eldest uncle had cut off the fish that should have been divided between them for the sake of not being able to eat meat during filial mourning.

At that time, Village Head Grandpa did not say a word of fairness. Fortunately, their family was on good terms with the Village Head Grandpa family. With the Village Chief supporting them, Uncle could do nothing to them.

As long as there were old and young men who could enter the pond, they would all try their best to fish. The pond was not big, so after getting rid of the clams, the screws and the like, each family would get an average of around fifty kilograms. Mu Rousang had gotten a few more live small fish and small shrimps, so the others would naturally be happy to get more big fish.

Mu Rousang had given a big wooden bucket to the village chief to raise these little fishes and prawns, and also asked someone to help him carry them up the donkey cart. Then, she and Mu Jinzhi rushed the donkey cart back home.

"Little sister, why are there so many small fish and shrimp?"

Mu Rousang laughed lightly. Fish was tasty only if it was not big, the freshwater fish preferred the crucian carp the most: "Brother, tonight we will eat the Red Braised Carp."

She calculated in her heart. It was rare to see fish and prawns, so she would naturally throw them into the river of space. In the future, she would not have to worry about not having any fish to eat.

She was a kind person, not just some small shrimps. She had all sorts of common fish seedlings, and Mu Rousang was very happy that her family's food had gone up another level.

After dinner, she took the opportunity when Mu Jinzhi was having a hot water bath to secretly run into the living room to scoop up a third of the fish and prawns in the wooden bucket and throw them into the spatial river, then picked up a few clams and threw them in. By doing this, she was afraid that these things would not survive until tomorrow.

Because Mulberry's family came here to make trouble that day, Mu Rousang did not have the mood to sew clothes.

The next day, after Mu Jinzhi went to school, Mu Rousang locked the door and rushed in, not caring about Mu Yiyang who was almost there, he took the clam bucket and entered the space in a flash. Roar, she wanted to raise pearls, she wanted to develop his pearl industry, the ancient drilling techniques were lagging behind, a round, glossy and small pearl that was the size of a little finger, that was worth at least 5 taels of silver.

She didn't know how to use clam clothing to grow pearls, so she roughly pried open the shell of the river clam and sprinkled it with some sand.

By the time she was done with her work, Mu Yiyang was already outside the gate.

He didn't have the time to throw the clam into the river. Instead, he stepped out of the space to open the door. "Coming!"

had been treating Mu Yiyang coldly these past few days, she was purposely leaving him out, that day when the Mulberry's family came to scrounge for food, Mu Yiyang actually did not open his mouth to chase them away, of course Mu Rousang was arrogant and spoiled, no matter what he did as his own son, he could not drive her parents away, he would stay and eat and drink, and if he really did that, Mu Rousang would also be disappointed.

"Go and clean the pigsty first. After you're done, come over and try out your new jacket."

Then, ignoring him, she turned and entered the room.

Just as he was about to finish sewing the clothes for Mu Fengchai, someone knocked on the courtyard door. Mu Yiyang threw down the big broom in his hand and ran over to open the door.

He ran to the door and was about to remove the bolt when his hand stopped. "Who is it?"

Last time when he secretly let his parents come in, he had already displeased Mu Rousang.

"Is wood girl home? I am Chinese toon. "

Chinese toon? Mu Rousang could hear them clearly in the room. She threw down the needle and thread in her hands and ran out: "yang-ge, hurry up and open the door. Chinese toon is here."

Qin Chunshu would only be able to return during the monthly break, and it was not the first time he had the time to visit Mu Rousang's home.

Mu Yiyang immediately opened the courtyard door, and went up to welcome them: "Chinese toon, are you on vacation? Last time when you asked Manager Wu, didn't he want to reach the 28th of the Moon? "

Qin Chunshu hadn't seen Mu Rousang for a while, and when he saw a little girl wearing a rabbit skin robe, he thought that she was a young miss from a rich family.

"Rou Sang?!" This little girl is getting more and more adorable! "

Mu Rousang had a very good impression of him: "Chinese toon, hurry and come in. yang-ge, help me pour some hot tea."

Qin Chunshu quickly waved his hands: "We'll talk later, let's take off the things first." He turned around and called to the coachman to help him carry a few baskets into the living room.

Mu Yiyang had already sliced two cups of hot tea and brought them in. Mu Rousang then brought two plates of snacks out from the side of the room: "Come, let's hurry back early in the morning.

"En, this dessert is delicious, it's soft and sticky." Qin Chunshu did not hold back, and took a big bite: "Don't be in such a rush, now it's the new year, there are many families going to town to pick up goods, the shops are always busy, I have to rush back later, when the shops close, I will come back to your house later."

Mu Rousang didn't know, but she knew that ancient shops rested early even until New Year's Eve.

"These are?" She pointed to a few baskets sealed in red paper.

"It was sent by the Manager Wu. They said that it was from a annual festival gift, and this is the list." He took out a dark red and golden thread and opened it to reveal a faint fragrant scent.

"Shopkeeper, thank you so much. Chinese toon needs to thank him on my behalf." Mu Rousang was moved, although it was just a gift from the annual festival gift, but this move of the Manager Wu was secretly teaching her how to send gifts to the rich, and this gift was exactly one. It was a bit similar to a business card from the modern era.

After looking at it carefully, Mu Rousang compared it with the Boxing Ceremony that Yang Zixuan had called Xiao Tong over for him last time, some of them were different, it was a little lighter than Yang Zixuan's, but it was just right for his identity.

Mu Rousang saw that Manager Wu had given her some cured fish meat, so she returned the gesture with a question.

"Chinese toon, I'll have to trouble you to sit for a while, and take the opportunity to return the courtesy. When my brother ends school the next day, we will go pay our respects to the Manager Wu." Mu Rousang thought about the plan.

Qin Chunshu was not in a rush, he nodded his head and continued eating his snacks: "I recognize one of the cinnamon cake s, but what is that thin golden skin filling?"

he asked, pointing to a round golden pastry.

"That's my wife's biscuit. It's made from glutinous rice stuffing. I thought it was not good enough, so I added some winter melon sugar and seeds. It's also quite sweet when you eat it."

Mu Rousang casually replied.

Qin Chunshu, however, was a kind-hearted person and couldn't help but remind her: "Rou Sang, it's a pity that you're too young. Otherwise, your family could go to the county city to rent a shop and open a pastry shop."

Mu Rousang shook her head, she would not consider it at the moment, it was because she was too young, if Mu Jinzhi was eleven or twelve years old, she could give it a try.

had obviously considered all the gifts she received. Other than a few customizations, one was for Mu Rousang, one was for a piece of silk cloth, and the other was for a silver collar. Black lines appeared on her forehead. Mu Jinzhi's were the four treasures of the study.

Mu Rousang was naturally unable to compete with Manager Wu in terms of family background. She had prepared two Rabbits, two Duck, a Lama Chicken, and a few kilograms of Mountain Wood Ear, a big bag of dried mushrooms, a big jar of pickled vegetables, and a few kilograms of snacks. She remembered that Manager Wu had a pair of children at her side.

After wrapping up the items and placing them in the basket, he caught two live chickens and tied them up with several kilograms of fresh eggs. Compared to the gift from Manager Wu, it was still a little lacking.

Only then did Mu Rousang remember that her family did not prepare any gifts, looks like she had to prepare some next year.

He put everything in place and cut out two large pieces of red paper that he was going to use to write couplets. He then took out a pen and wrote the word "Fortune" or "Wealth" on the paper. A businessman's favorite was to get lucky, regardless of how hard it was to write or not to look good.
