Xiuse Farmhouse

Chapter 65
A carriage with a green cloth roof was parked at the entrance of the village. Several children in the village watched the carriage happily and curiously. Some children wanted to reach out to touch it. The driver was a young boy. He waved his hand at the child: "Don't touch it. Go and play."

The child's mother dragged the child back, for fear of accidentally breaking something on the carriage and asking for compensation.

At this moment, shopkeeper Yu came out from the village, and the young boy immediately jumped out of the carriage, and respectfully called out to shopkeeper Yu, "The shopkeeper."

Shopkeeper Yu jumped into the carriage and asked, "How is it?"

The young boy also jumped into the carriage and yelled at the horse and left the village. In the countryside, there was no one on the side of the road, and he was not afraid of being heard. The condiments are all prepared..."

Wanwan took Baishou's back basket, first talked about the clothes hanger, Baishou agreed without thinking, as long as the village asked him for help, he never refused.

Wanwan said: "Then just do more, in case someone needs it, don't do it again."

Then he talked about Shopkeeper Yu.

After listening to Baishou, he was silent for a moment, and said: "He will definitely come again."

Bend thinks so too.

Then I heard Baishou say: "People in the village have a lot of talk, sooner or later people will know about the chili and prickly ash, but you must not let people know about the sweet noodle sauce you make. Although Yuanbao's family and Shitou's family know about it, I believe in their character. Even if you are seen and believed that others can’t make the same thing when you make it. Didn’t we grind red sauce a few years ago, maybe some people will think it’s that thing!”

Wanwan looked at Baishou in surprise, he thought exactly the same as himself.

However, Baishou also missed the most important point. To make the sauce meat more delicious, it is necessary to rub the fresh meat vigorously when rubbing it, just like a massage.

This is the same as modern fried chicken legs. The chicken legs have to be massaged for a period of time, and the meat has to be pricked with a needle so that the flavor can enter the meat, so as to ensure that the meat in the fried chicken legs is as tender and delicious. eat.

As expected, shopkeeper Yu came the next day.

"... Most of the pigs raised by households were sold years ago, but there are some now, you can ask and you may be able to buy them. The more sauced meat, the better, and of course sausages are also indispensable. If you don't have enough manpower, please ask Someone can help, let me know as soon as it is done."

When Shopkeeper Yu came yesterday, he asked someone to ask the other two. Unfortunately, both Yuanbao's and Shitou's made the condiments directly, so the two families didn't know the contents of the recipe at all.What the capital needs is urgent, and there is no delay.It is really impossible to buy someone else's secret recipe, so after thinking about it all night, shopkeeper Yu gave up the idea of ​​buying the secret recipe, and wanted to ask the two of them to buy a few pigs to cook at home and then sell them to restaurants.

This method is the best for the two of them.However, there is one more important thing.

"Don't worry about this, we will do it as soon as possible, and the cooked meat will definitely satisfy you. However, there is still a small problem." Wanwan said with a smile.

"What's the problem?" Shopkeeper Yu was also very straightforward.

"You also know that you have to buy ready-made pigs now, and this is not a small business for us. Shopkeeper Yu, you are also in business, so I think maybe we can make a contract, or you have to pay us some deposit first .”

Shopkeeper Yu's eyes lit up when he heard it, and after looking at Wan Wan for a few moments, he suddenly laughed out loud, and said simply: "Then let's make a fingerprint, and I'll pay some deposit." There was a hint of regret in his tone.

This is really a business material!

But there was no pen or paper in the house, and the handprint was not printed in the end, so shopkeeper Yu directly left 50 taels of silver.He added: "I know the two of you, so you don't need to print your fingerprints this time. Remember to let me know when the meat is ready."

Then Baishou politely sent Shopkeeper Yu out of the yard.

Wanwan looked at the 50 taels of silver on the table, and smiled, hey, 50 taels, without even making a fingerprint, people are not afraid of their husband and wife denying it at all!
Shopkeeper Yu didn't leave for a while, Yuan Baoniang came, looking mysterious.

"I heard shopkeeper Yu came to your house again today?"

Wanwan nodded to her.

Then he looked at her carefully and asked, "Are you here to buy the recipe for sauced pork?"

Wanwan showed surprise.

Yuan Baoniang explained slowly: "Yesterday afternoon, a young boy suddenly came to the house. As soon as he entered the door, he asked us for a recipe for buying sauced meat. Shitou's house has also been to their house. How do we know? He didn't give up, and asked How on earth did we make this sauced meat? We don’t know him at all, so we didn’t say anything.” After a pause, he asked hesitantly, “Isn’t this shopkeeper making things difficult for you?”

It was only then that Wanwan realized that he had prepared it with two hands.At the same time, I am more sure of the idea of ​​hiding the prescription.

Yuan Baoniang didn't think it was a big deal at the time, but later she heard that a nobleman was going to Wanwan's house in a carriage, and then she saw that it was shopkeeper Yu. After thinking about it all night, she felt that she should tell Wanwan about it.Unexpectedly, someone was as puzzled as she was, and Shitou Niang went to her house early this morning and told about it.Then Yuan Baoniang came over.

Wanwan told her that shopkeeper Yu wanted her to make some more sauced pork, but he didn't know where there was fat pork.Yuan Bao's father often walked around outside, so he asked him if he could take a look.Yuan Baoniang immediately agreed.

One day later, Father Yuanbao found Baishou, and said that there was a family in Niujia Village who raised three pigs.Getting ready to sell.

On the second day, Baishou went to Niujia Village with Daddy Yuanbao to buy three fat pigs. On the way back, everyone in the village asked curiously. Of course, the first choice was Yuanbaoniang and Shitouniang.This year's festival is over, I don't know why Wanwan and his family still buy fat pigs?

The two kept silent and said they didn't know.

The pig bought it, and half of the stone in his heart fell.

The next day, Yuan Bao's father came to help kill the three fat pigs, and only picked out a small part of the bones.In the evening, Wanwan sent pig blood to every family.

The next day, Yuan Bao's father came over early in the morning to help pick out the bones of the three fat pigs, and also helped chop the pork into strips.I left him for dinner at night, but he didn't eat and went home.In order to thank Yuan Bao's father for his help, she took a big basket of bones to Yuan Bao's house, and also sent some to Shi Shi's house, which will be indispensable for grandpa in the future.

Because the last time I went to Laisheng's house, Wanwan felt more and more that her two families were connected by the same fate, so, as long as within her ability, she and Bai Capital would try their best to take care of their grandparents and grandchildren.

It took several days to kill the pig, make sauced meat, spare ribs, and stuff sausages. When the sauced meat tasted good and was marinated, the two of them hung the meat in the yard.

Although the ancients were simple and simple, we must guard against people's misconceptions. Since then, Wanwan never went to the market to sell cakes, and almost all went to Baishou and Laisheng.

After the beginning of spring, the weather is gradually warming up, and the fields are busy. It is time to start planting new plants.Spring is the season of revival of all things. The grass starts to grow longer, the trees start to sprout, and all kinds of flowers are competing to bloom. For fruit trees, of course, it is also a new beginning.

Baishou didn't forget about Wang Baoshan's fruit tree grafting, so he went to his house to discuss with him on the day he was free, and then the two decided to start grafting fruit trees.No matter what Baishou does, Wanwan will support him, especially to build a good relationship with the villagers.

Fruit tree grafting is one of the methods of asexual reproduction of fruit trees, that is, to take branches or buds on a plant of a good variety and connect them to an appropriate part of another plant, so that the two can be combined to form a new plant.

The two finally found good fruit tree branches in other places, brought them back and started grafting.

Wanwan watches meat at home every day, and occasionally goes to the mountains to have a look.Because there are many fruit trees on the mountain, this is a delicate job, and if the grafting is not good, it will not survive.Very slow.Baishou came home very late every day.

However, Wanwan cooks delicious food every day to wait for him to come back.

Half a month later, the sauced meat looked dry, and Wanwan didn't go to the mountain to watch Baisong for several days.On this day, after eating the afternoon meal, I hung all the sauced meat in the main room, closed the door and went down the mountain.

Walking halfway, I saw Li Dazhi in the field, thinking that Li Dashi asked for a coat hanger for his younger brother a few days ago, and I haven't seen Li Dashi these days, so I thought it was for him anyway, why not give it to him directly So he stood beside Tian Yin and called Li Dazhi.

"...Brother Dashi said to make some hangers for you last time. Baishou is already done. If you are not busy, wait for me in the field for a while, and I will go back and bring them for you."

Li Dazhi glanced at her in surprise, his face quickly returned to normal, and said, "Okay."

He was surprised because the last time Wanwan saw him, she acted as if she didn't know him at all, but now she called his name again, which made him a little puzzled.

Seeing that he agreed, he turned around and went back to the mountain. After thinking about it, he took ten hangers and went down the mountain, some thin and some wide, and showed them to Li Dashi in the field.

"The width and thickness are different." Later, at Wan Wan's request, Bai Capital carved some small patterns on it, which looked very beautiful.

Li Dazhi took a closer look at it, he found that the left and right sides were well balanced, the bend was very good, the style was pretty good, indeed better than his brother, he admired Baisong in his heart, and said: "It's all done well, it doesn't matter."

While the two were talking, the long gang lady came over carrying a hoe, followed by a man in his early twenties.As soon as he saw the patterned clothes hanger, he was surprised and said, "Hey, this clothes hanger is so beautifully made, whose family is it?"

Wanwan glanced at Li Dazhi, and said embarrassedly: "Baishou made it. A few days ago, Brother Dashi said that there was a shortage at home, so I made some for them."

"Oh, this hanger is really beautiful, and there are patterns on it, why don't ours have one..." He also praised Wanwan: "Your family is really good at Baisong!" It's quite flattering and interesting.

Seeing how Changbang Niang likes it, she is in a dilemma. If she had known that she would meet someone else, she would bring out a few more. At this moment, Li Dazhi next to her said: "I have some at home, but I don't have Brother Baishou to make them." Well, if Auntie likes it, why don’t you take some home.”
