Madam, go home and farm

Chapter 138: Go Your Own Way

Two days after the wedding, the couple still went to Uncle Hong's house to continue helping, such as how to distribute the leftover food from the banquet, and use the leftover ingredients. The borrowed tables and chairs were shared by the two clans surnamed Wang and Hong. The bowls and bowls should be separated, etc., anyway, there are many things.

After finishing things, I have my own time, and in the contact with this cousin, she seems to be easy to get along with, not as delicate as imagined, I heard that she will cook on the third day after marriage , I am quite familiar with the kitchen, so look, the eldest aunt looks very satisfied, and she walks with wind.

It is almost May at this time, the weather is getting hotter, the rice in the field has grown to the height of the calf, and there are a lot of weeds, which have to be pulled out, otherwise they will rob nutrients. In short, the field is busy .Of course, Puhuang is not easy. She is fertilizing the peanuts for the second time, and the sweet potatoes also need to be fattened and the ridges should be raised. Fortunately, these are all hard work, and Hong Haoan is there to help, so she will be seated soon.

This year, the number of trips to the mountains is relatively small, and the valleys are also relatively rare. The vegetables and fruits planted are not taken care of. Taking advantage of the good weather, Puhuang plans to go to the mountains to see the peaches, which are probably ripe.

In the past, Hong Hao'an couldn't walk, but now he doesn't need crutches, so he strongly asked to go into the mountain together. He wanted to see if the place Pu Huang kept talking about was not as dangerous as she said.

Standing next to the small canyon, Hong Haoan looked at the various animals moving inside with a blue face, and he looked at Puhuang, "Madam, how can you take such risks? There are so many poisons. Last time you caught Dr. Lin Those centipedes are all from here, it’s too dangerous, no, no, we won’t make any money in the future.”

Hong Haoan was walking back and forth on the sidelines. He may not be flexible yet, but his eyes are good. Seeing that the Dragon Boat Festival is coming again, the poison in the mountains is the time to appear. If he didn't follow this time, he would Didn't know that was the case.

Pu Huang rolled her eyes helplessly, "Don't go, I've made you dizzy, I'm not that weak, besides, I cherish my little life very much. Let's go, if you go like this again, what are you doing?" When can we reach the valley?"

Walking up the canyon, at the end, seeing the poisonous snakes swimming on the mountain, his hands felt a little cold, and he held Puhuang's hand tightly, watching the poisonous snakes vigilantly.

"Master, don't look at it, as long as you don't mess with them, they won't take the initiative to attack people." Last year, the small road that was made with great difficulty, became difficult to walk again in one spring, either it was hooked by thorns or there were more. The vines, if you are not careful, you will trip over them.

Because of bringing Hong Haoan, Puhuang arrived at the valley two quarters of an hour later than before. Walking through that path, Hong Haoan was also stunned by the wide and flat scene inside.

She often cleans this place, there are not many insects and snakes, let go of Hong Haoan's hand, Puhuang went straight to the lake, the peach tree was already full of fruits, and a lot fell on the ground, directly swept into the lake I fed the fish in the lake, then picked one, washed it in the lake, and ate it.

At this time of year, there are not many fruits and vegetables that can be eaten. These days, they are all dried vegetables, and the taste in my mouth is almost gone.

This peach is not fully ripe yet, the green color is pink, it tastes very crisp, sweet and sour, very appetizing.It would be good if there is bayberry juice. Soak the peaches in it, and when it is fully soaked, the whole peaches will be sweet and sour, with the taste of bayberry, not to mention how delicious it is.

Hong Hao'an also touched it, reached out and picked a wash, and took a bite, "Lady, this taste is really good, even better than the ones sold in the city."

"It would be great if there was bayberry juice, soak it for a better taste."

Hong Hao'an bit a peach and said vaguely: "Redberry juice? Aunt Qiu should have it. She likes to eat it. When the redberry is ripe, she will ask the children in the village to go up the mountain to pick it for her. The price is calculated by the catty."

Hong Hao'an walked around the fruit forest twice, and stopped in front of two loquat trees, "My lady, the loquats are ripe, and almost all of them have fallen."

When Puhuang heard this, she ran over to see that it was indeed the case. She couldn't help but feel depressed. The fruits here ripen relatively late. She thought the loquats were too. What a pity.Pursing his lips, without avoiding Hong Haoan, he threw all the fruits on the ground into the lake, then took the sack and started picking them.

Hong Haoan's mouth was wide open, and it took him a while to rub his sore chin. When did the lady become so powerful?

"Look at me, you take a bag to pick peaches!" Pu Huang glanced at Hong Hao'an, it's not like he didn't know that she had used it before, so why should he be so surprised?

But Hong Haoan was really surprised. He always thought Puhuang could only control one thing, but what she did just now, he could feel that she didn't control the loquats on the ground. Could it be that the dozen or so wild boars before were also She got it back the same way?
His enigmatic lady, what else does he not know?

There are not many loquats left, only half a sack after picking, and you can't sell much if you want to sell it. It's really a big loss.I don't know why the person who planted these fruits didn't plant a few plum trees. The wild plums on the mountain are very sour and not tasty at all.

But the bayberry tree grows densely, and the green fruits hang all over the branches and leaves, which is very comfortable to look at.After roughly calculating the time, it will be not long after the Dragon Boat Festival, and it should be able to sell for a sum of money.

Not all the peaches have been picked, three sacks, half a sack of loquat, Puhuang asked Hong Haoan to catch fish, and he went to reorganize the fields. This year, all the melons and fruits are planted in the valley, such as cucumbers, loofahs, bitter gourds, etc. wait.In the corner, only a dozen or so papaya seeds that she left behind had sprouted, and seven or eight died, which made her feel very distressed.

Now the papaya seedlings have grown to a height of more than one foot, and they will be transplanted to the lakeside in July. This kind of papaya has fruits all year round, no matter whether she picks it or not, it is good to feed the fish in the water Ah, so affordable.

On the way back, everything was picked by Puhuang. Hong Haoan looked good, but he couldn't bear the weight yet. He could only carry a few fish and pick some mushrooms.On the way back, he also had an idea in his mind. He didn't know who left that valley, and the things in it were cheap for himself and Puhuang.

Thinking of what Puhuang seemed to have said about the farm before, he couldn't help thinking seriously about how much it would cost to buy a farm, and to grow those fruits and raise fish, where the environment would be more suitable, how much it would cost, and so on.

He didn't think they would stay in Heping Village for the rest of their lives. No matter how difficult the road was, no matter how hidden the valley was, people would always discover it. After all, who wouldn't be jealous of something that makes money?Those greedy and cowardly people dare not enter the mountain, but it doesn't mean they won't think of other ways to force themselves and Puhuang. All these have to be prepared in advance.

Hong Hao'an didn't tell Puhuang about this, because she has always been very careful. She would cover up things with firewood when she brought them back from the valley. On the border of Niu Mountain, there is still a valley.

There are a lot of peaches, so it is impossible to give them away if you want to sell them. After all, there is no impenetrable wall in the world. However, whether these things are sold in stores or retailed, there are several ways to get rid of them, because they are afraid that the price will not be worth it.

Just as the couple were taking out the peaches from the sack and putting them in a basket for air, the somewhat familiar voice sounded outside the door again, and Lin Shaodong's family jumped out of the carriage, "Brother Hong, the weather is finally getting better, the dried fish But let’s make a lot, I brought all the fish, but they are all fresh.”

Hong Haoan put down the peach in his hand, washed his hands before going out, and glanced at the carriage at the door, the several large wooden barrels on the carriage were clear at a glance, his face turned black immediately, with so many fish, he and Puhuang could not die of exhaustion , it is better to let Puhuang stir the raw materials, maybe the money will be less, but it will save trouble.

You must know that it takes a lot of time to make this dried fish, and during this period of time, there will always be people who like to "drop in" and talk around this, which is really annoying.And besides Lin Shaodong's family, it's not that no one has come to him, threatened or lured him, wanting to get the formula.

Benefits are easy to tempt people. Although Bihu County has a lot of aquatic products, it is not as good as the seaside towns, so there are more fish. If this method of dried fish can be used for sea fish, the profits will be greater, and of course many people will be tempted.Lu Yuan also mentioned this to Hong Haoan, telling him to be more careful, and to go to him if there is any problem.

In fact, Hong Haozheng also came to look for Hong Haoan. Of course, Hong Haoan did not do business in this area, but his business friends asked, and he refused the matter, and did not tell Puhuang, because he did not want her to worry. .

Puhuang prepared all the peaches, went to the well to wash some and sent them over. Lin Shaodong's family was quite sensitive and asked about it on the spot.It just solved the problem of Puhuang and the others. However, she has been a little annoyed by making dried fish frequently in the past six months. As Lin Shaodong's family pushed dried fish to Zhenweilou in other cities, the supply of this thing is even more in short supply. Without development, their lives will revolve around fish.

This is not the life Puhuang wants, and it is also not what Hong Haoan wants to see. After negotiating the price of peaches with Lin Shaodong's family, he told the matter, directly asked the number of fish, and asked Puhuang To play the corresponding amount.

Up to now, Lin Shaodong's family still hasn't given up the idea of ​​buying the formula, and it's not that they haven't investigated the medicinal materials and spices that Hong Hao'an and the others bought from the shop, but they haven't tested it successfully, so they can only work hard in this regard.

As soon as Lin Shaodong's house left, someone came to visit him, and they still came together, saying that they were discussing and chatting with Puhuang to do embroidery work, but what they said was not nutritious, and they turned to the direction of dried fish. , and this time, there are more lo-mei recipes.

Once or twice was okay, but after more times, Puhuang became impatient and gave people a look of embarrassment. Women are narrow-minded and hateful people, and they are lovers of gossip, so rumors that are not good for Puhuang began to arise again.

In other words, if there are too many lice, it doesn't itch, and if you have too many debts, you don't worry about it. People say that you get used to it, and Puhuang doesn't hurt or itch anymore. Let people tell you to go your own way!
