farm daughter-in-law

Chapter 148

Zhang Xihua had just finished pasting the coarse grain cakes, and when she was about to cook the soup, she heard the excited twittering of the little girl in the yard.

He Yuanyuan didn't hide the joy in his heart, and shouted: "Sister-in-law, where are you?"

"It's in the kitchen." Zhang Xihua said.

He Yuanyuan rushed into the door with a whimper, she had no image of a girl at all, she put her hips on her hips and laughed loudly: "Sister-in-law, I sold it for fifty Wen."

Zhang Xihua said with a smile, "I sold so much this time."

"It's all sold out!" He Yuanyuan brought up the empty bamboo basket in his hand and showed it to his sister-in-law, and said proudly, "Fifty Wen is a net profit."

Zhang Xihua pursed her lips and praised: "Yuan Yuan is really capable."

He Yuanyuan was pleased to receive the compliment, and she put down the bamboo basket, expressing that she would help her sister-in-law make dinner together.

Zhang Xihua stopped her and said, "I made mung bean porridge, you go and wash your hands and face, then come over and have a bowl."

He Yuanyuan was exhausted for a long time, and the food he ate was also digested. He heard that there was mung bean soup to drink, and as soon as his eyes lit up, he ran to the well in a hurry.

Zhang Xihua shook her head as sister-in-law's erratic temperament could never be corrected.When she walked to the door of the kitchen, she caught a glimpse of her husband He Sheng leading the cow into the cowshed, their eyes collided, Zhang Xihua smiled and said: "He Lang, you also wash your face quickly and come over to drink mung bean porridge. "

He Sheng looked back at her and nodded slightly.

Before He Sheng arrived, He Yuanyuan had spontaneously set up the small table and placed it under the eaves of the yard, filling a bowl of bean porridge for himself and his brother.

"Sister-in-law, do you want to drink?" He Yuanyuan asked aloud.

Zhang Xihua shook her head and said: "You two drink it."

After He Sheng tidied up, he first went to the room to visit his son, then came to the courtyard and sat down with his sister, respectively, drinking mung bean porridge.

The beans were harvested last year. The bean taste is quite strong. The stew is so soft that no grains can be found. With the addition of sugar, you can taste the sweet taste. Both brothers and sisters love to drink this.

Just after drinking a bowl, there was a cry of a baby in the room, He Yuanyuan put down the bowl and chopsticks immediately, but the elder brother at the side was earlier than her, and had already strode into the room with great strides.

He Yuanyuan knew that he couldn't compete with He Sheng, so he simply stayed under the eaves and ate to his heart's content, thinking that he would share the money he earned with his sister-in-law later.

He Yuanyuan still sells food in the market, and it is still the same two that He Yuanhui went to sell together: fried glutinous rice cakes and steamed rice cakes.

The glutinous rice flour used for deep-frying glutinous rice cakes, add sugar and water to make dough balls, then knead into balls and fry them directly in the oil pan until they are golden brown. Five balls are strung together with bamboo sticks and put in bamboo basket Convenience, a string of three pennies, the color and fragrance are sold at the market, and the children pester and clamor for the elders to pay for it. If there is a generous child who loves the child, Ren Ren will still give up a few pennies.

On the contrary, the steamed rice cakes are not as fast as the fried rice cakes, because they only have a basket size, so they can be sold out without the market closing.

He Yuanyuan pinched the purse in his hand, the smile on his lips couldn't be stopped.The money earned, the mother said that she could share it with her sister-in-law, and would not accept the half-son.After two months, besides what she had already spent, she had actually saved a hundred dollars, how could she not be happy?

He Yuanyuan couldn't help but recall what happened at the beginning.

Because He Yuanyuan had tasted the sweetness of selling food at the market twice with her eldest sister last time, her mind was also aroused. She wished that the market would be open every day, but it was a pity that the eldest sister's family went, and this business would not be possible. She also has no source of pocket money.With such a sister, He Yuanyuan's temper is naturally not as boring as his brother's.As soon as I thought about it, I wanted to go to the market alone to sell food.

He Yuanyuan beat He Zengshi a lot, but unfortunately He Zengshi still didn't let her go to the market by herself. He Yuanyuan was very distressed, so he asked his sister-in-law to come.

After hearing this, Zhang Xihua felt quite helpless, reached out and tapped He Yuanyuan's forehead, and said with a smile: "Our Yuanyuan really fell into the eyes of money. Tell me, what can I do for you?"

He Yuanyuan felt that sister-in-law is more reliable in doing things, and it is easy to reassure parents, so she tried her best to express that she wanted to continue the business of selling food with her eldest sister, and she begged: "Sister-in-law, do you agree? Help me Tell your parents, they will definitely listen to you."

Zhang Xihua thought for a while, then asked with a smile, "You really want to go?"

He Yuanyuan grinned, grabbed Zhang Xihua's elbow with both hands and shook it non-stop, and nodded affirmatively: "I want to go! I want to go! Besides, it can really make money. I can buy some for Xiao Yu'er if I make money. Little toys to play with."

She hasn't sold it yet, and she's been thinking about it recently, and she can't calm down to do anything at all. She usually goes to the next few villages to chat with little sisters, and she doesn't want to go.

"You..." Zhang Xihua shook her head helplessly, and said, "This month's market is in Baofeng Village, which is far away from us. Parents are just worried about you running so far alone. Your brother said I will go to buy some things, if I really want to go, I will ask your brother to promise to take you."

Why would the parents-in-law worry about He Sheng taking his younger sister there?

"Ah!" He Yuanyuan's eyes lit up instantly, she slapped her head fiercely and said, "Why didn't I think of that, then I'll go and ask my brother to agree now."

He Yuanyuan hurriedly ran to the yard to look for He Sheng. He Sheng was chopping firewood, chopping large pieces into pieces, so that the family members did not have to do this process when cooking.

After my sister-in-law left, Zhang Xihua concentrated on sewing her husband's torn clothes. When his son went to the mountain to cut firewood, the hem of the clothes was scratched by thorns, so he tried to sew it up quickly when he freed his hands.

After a while, He Yuanyuan went back and forth, she scratched her head in embarrassment, and said: "Sister-in-law, I dare not speak, for fear that my brother will not agree. Why don't you help me?"

Brother always listens to sister-in-law, right?He Yuanyuan thought to himself.

Zhang Xihua asked: "Your brother refused?"

"No..." He Yuanyuan hesitated for a while, and said simply: "That's what I thought, I couldn't make the taste of the two dishes I sold with my eldest sister last time, so..."

So want to do it yourself?Zhang Xihua was surprised, then smiled and said, "Okay, I'll make the deep-fried glutinous rice cakes and steamed rice cakes for you."

He Yuanyuan was really happy, and happily ran out to seek He Sheng's agreement.

Hearing that it was his daughter-in-law who asked her to come to him, He Sheng agreed after thinking about it, and just said: "Your sister-in-law works hard to watch the children at night, and you have to get up early tomorrow morning to help her with things, and you will also be early for those things that are sold." Learn to do it yourself."

He Yuanyuan agreed wholeheartedly.
