Chapter 545 545. Do you want to save seeds?
A room full of people devoured the watermelon in the basin quickly, and then they had time to extend their claws to the watermelon on the side.
Fortunately, this thing has a shell, and there are always two more steps to eat, so that everyone will not fill their stomachs too full at once.
Even so, when the seventh cousin was cooking, he came to the living room to collect his most convenient large basin, and saw that the trash can was almost filled with water chestnut shells and watermelon rinds.
He couldn't help but be stunned: "You are eating so much now, do I have to cook less for lunch later?"
When lunch was mentioned, everyone became energetic again.
But the spirit is the spirit, and the stomach won’t admit it!
Looking at the water chestnut in my hand now, I want to eat it but complain about it taking up my stomach. It’s really a dilemma!
However, the seventh cousin has always been in charge of the kitchen affairs. He does not need to listen to any opinions at all. At this moment, he makes arrangements on his own:
"I just haven't cooked yet. , how about eating cold noodles for lunch?”
He thought about it: "I still have a pot of bean sprouts from yesterday. Later I will go to the vegetable garden to pick a few cucumbers and grate them, add some green pepper beef sauce, and fry some eggs... For soup, I'll have white fungus soup. Come on, alas!"
He said reluctantly: "... Just eat it."
Professor Song and others:...
If this is the case. Life is called make do, so they can make do for the rest of their lives!
However, in the eyes of the seventh cousin, this kind of thing that does not require any technology is indeed just make-do. As for tomorrow’s meal, he has a new idea——
"Tantan, if nothing goes wrong tonight, let's grind some tofu. We'll make a ground basket tonight. Tomorrow, crucian carp will be stewed with tofu and Mapo tofu. I'll mix some fermented bean curd - duck egg yolk pressed with garlic. You're used to it. I’ll give it a try if I’m used to it.”
Oh my God! ! !
What kind of magical day is this? The master and apprentice were already so happy that they were speechless.
Until Wu Lan called Song Tan:
"Tan Tan, you go to the canteen. I told others before that I can help you in exchange for five thousand yuan."
Song Tan was startled: "What do you need this money for?"
Ulan was recycling the hardened sheets: "You asked Mrs. Li and the others to deal with Jin Yingzi before, but you haven't even got the money yet. Give it... It also made me forget that they are old, can't use mobile phones well, and they need cash... I only have 300 yuan left at home, so I thought I should prepare more."
Actually, before. I have it at home, and I can use it occasionally to give small gifts as gifts, but I spent all the money on hiring people to pick peaches a while ago, and I didn’t go to town because of the hot weather, so I was delayed for a while.
No, I heard that someone was going to the bank early in the morning, so I asked him about this specifically.
Song Tan responded: "Then I will transfer money to others later?"
"Okay!"
It's only five thousand yuan. Wulan, whose situation has changed, doesn't take it seriously now. After thinking for a while, he stopped her and said, "Wait a minute... you ask your dad to pack a pot of water chestnuts and bring it over."
There are not too many water chestnuts in the pond, but not too few. Anyway, there is no plan. The money you sell is just snacks. Song Tan was not stingy to this extent. He responded quickly and walked to the canteen with the basin in hand.
The canteen is actually quite far away from home, and it takes more than ten minutes to walk. However, Wulan now realizes that her children are not very afraid of the sun, so they can do things more efficiently.
Song Sancheng, on the other hand, was already impatient picking water chestnuts. At this moment, he stood up particularly actively: "I'll ride a motorcycle! It's so sunny."
"Pick your water chestnuts, no one is like you, stupid and stupid, doing so many at once."
Song Sancheng:...
He had to sit down again depressed.
......
And here, Song Tan came to the canteen. Although it is said to be a canteen, it is actually completely different from the canteens found everywhere in the city. This place is small and pitiful, and the variety of things is pitiful, but you can find a lot of childhood memories.
Unfortunately, many of the snacks that are rare in urban areas are now disliked by my family.
"Aunt Wang, my mother asked me to exchange five thousand yuan."
Song Tan pushed open the glass door, and the woman who was watching TV in the room immediately stood up:
"Oh! Tantan? What a rare visitor... It's been a while since you've been back, right? I haven't seen you walking around in the village... Look at your skin, how fair it is at home!"
Song Tan thought to himself: I don't walk around the village very much, because when I go out I always drive or go to the mountains.
But at this time she just smiled: "My mother has good genetics."
Aunt Wang nodded seriously: "Your mother is blessed now, and all the girls are by her side. You have made a name for yourself in farming... Look at her, she is now stress-free, her skin is fair and rosy, how energetic she is!"
"Your dad is the same, he looks a lot younger when he walks out. "
Song Tan laughed and said, "Yeah, I must have been in other places, and they were thinking about me! Come on, Aunt Wang, I'll bring you a pot of water chestnuts that my dad just caught this morning."
"Ah!"
Aunt Wang opened the drawer, counted the cash in her hand, and said in surprise: "It's amazing! You've been home for half a year, right? This is the first time I eat you Where are the things at home?”
In the beginning, when they hired the villagers to work, they included meals. Later, when Song Tan and his family grew more and more, they simply raised the price without including meals.
At most, everyone knew what was planted in the fields when they were chatting, but they didn’t know whether it was the old Song family who had a lonely temper, or whether the young people were incompetent. Half a year had passed, and no one had a single bean. Touched it and tasted it.
It’s also strange!
People in the village, for example, who grows watermelons in their fields, will definitely give one or two to their relatives and friends to try. If that doesn't work, I can just say a polite word and ask you to pick it directly from the fields.
Even if you don’t give them away, you still have to ask someone to do some work. It is also appropriate to carry a peaches or two watermelons back before leaving.
When living in a village, people don’t talk about economic value, they talk about human relationships and rural character.
It’s not that Song Tan doesn’t know that he should do this, but the question is, if the smell of his food is released early in the morning, the villagers will come back to replace the vegetable seedlings. Do you agree or disagree?
After the change, the appearance of my family is still far inferior, so what should I say?
What's more, are there those who are greedy and want to destroy things?
If nothing else, it’s definitely not that easy to make their own buns, or the price will definitely have to go up.
But now...
“Aunt Wang, it’s my fault too.”
“My mother said at first that she would give it to everyone to try. But you also know, Our family spent all their money to cultivate this small amount of land, and the peaches and watermelons were contracted by others. The trucks carrying watermelons are still arriving every day. We think the output is not enough, and we are really embarrassed to deliver them outside... …”
She complained to herself, half-heartedly, turned around and took the five thousand yuan and asked again:
"Oh, by the way, Aunt Wang, my mother asked me to ask if our vegetables are growing well this year." Yes, do you want to keep some when the time comes? If so, she will keep more.”
Good night.
This plot was set up early on, and I finally wrote it. Living in the village, if your family grows something that others don’t have, even if you are polite, you have to ask if you want to taste it... Relatives and friends always have to give some away. This is a unique human exchange in the village.
People who are used to living in the city may not be able to adapt, but he is also true.
Tantan has been back for half a year. After the New Year, the whole village will slowly begin to change.
