Chapter 753 753. Chestnut Stewed Chicken
Master Qian really wants to eat sweet potato vines!
He ate this at Song Tan's house last night.
Song Youliang is an old guy. The older he gets, the more his cooking skills return to his original nature. Choose tender sweet potato vines and cut them into small pieces, stir-fry them with garlic and chili peppers, it’s refreshing and spicy, not to mention filling more rice!
As for the old ones, they were not wasted at all. They were all fed to pigs!
Those green vines were chopped into pieces in front of him, as if they were chopping his heart!
How can Master Qian bear it!
He almost yelled that he could pickle sweet potato vines, but that black guy named Zhang Yanping was not a good person either. When he heard that the old vines had to be cut into sections and peeled to taste delicious, he immediately said that they couldn't. Lacking vegetables, only good pork.
In short, the final destination of those Fujiko is the pig pen.
Master Qian wanted to let the workers try it, so that he could have another meal.
I didn’t expect this group of people...
Alas!
He sighed, and finally went out for a walk with his hands behind his back. He saw that the radish seedlings nearby had grown as long as the palm of his hand, and he couldn't help but want to eat fried minced pork with radish leaves.
As I walked further, I saw that the Chinese cabbage already had several leaves, and I couldn’t help but wonder what it would taste like when stir-fried.
If we go a little further, spinach, celery, lettuce, Chinese cabbage... will all grow.
Looking towards the low-lying areas where the temperature is more stable, autumn cowpeas and peppers are already quite large.
"We have to build a greenhouse next month... It is said to be a new cold-resistant product, but I don't know if it will work..."
Master Qian stared quietly for a while, feeling Then it gradually calmed down. He looked to another place in the distance and saw a strong chestnut tree with leaves with a pale white color on the back that had been turned over by the wind. Heavy thorns were pressed on the branches, and they were about to mature.
There are also golden rice fields further away under the mountains...
Golden! ! !
It’s time to harvest the rice! New rice!
His whole body was excited. At this moment, he felt light and healthy, and his steps were nimble. Soon he rushed down the mountain:
"Song Tan, when will your rice be harvested?" Harvesting? Sell me some rice! I want it for myself, not for the restaurant.”
Song Tan was stunned: “Master Qian, we can’t sell the rice, and the output is only enough for our family. It’s for human consumption.”
That’s enough. I have to do something else in my daily life. But there's nothing you can do about it, everyone in the family is a loser!
Master Qian's old face fell and he said pitifully: "My wife is old and weak. She usually likes to drink some white porridge...this rice..."
Song Tan: ...That's really not the case! Master Qian, you said yesterday that your family members wear high-heeled leather shoes to dance in the square every day!
In the morning, we even led everyone to do Baduanjin together in the park!
She smiled helplessly: "Okay, Master Qian... when you leave, I will pack ten kilograms of rice for you alone!"
Seeing that Master Qian was still thinking When she said something, she quickly stopped her: "If you add more, it will be gone! Ten pounds of rice can last you a long time to make porridge. You can't just eat plain porridge every day, right?"
Master Qian's face didn't even turn red, and he went up the mountain contentedly.
Before leaving, he turned to his seventh cousin and shouted: "Old Song, I see the chestnuts are ripe on the mountain. When are you going to make chestnut stewed chicken?"
angry The seventh cousin yelled at his back: "When you are old, you want to have a face and eat whatever you see. You are still a master, why are you so greedy?!"
"Uh. ..." Wang Xiaoshun said weakly from the side: "I can peel chestnuts..."
Seventh cousin: ...
"Eat, eat, eat! A group of talented eaters! Let's eat it at night! Tantan, good chestnuts must be paired with good meat. How about randomly catching a little rooster and hen from the back mountain?"
They are all tender. It's time!
Before Song Tan spoke, Qiao Qiao disagreed: "Seventh cousin, why are you like this!"
"Sister has already said that buying a chick costs several yuan. Qian, now it has eaten so much of our family’s food, and it hasn’t even laid eggs for a few years, so how can it be eaten like this?”
He shook his head and sighed, quite like Ulan usually sighing at the prodigal son. : "Seventh cousin, you really don't know how to do business!"
The seventh cousin was silent for a moment and then said: "Qiao Qiao, is it possible that I am a cook?" Qiao Qiao was dumbfounded.
…
But when it comes to rice harvesting…
Ulan also just hung up the phone: “It’s still the same, agricultural machinery harvesting 400 Five acres, let’s hire someone to do it.”
In plain areas, it would cost two to three hundred yuan per acre, but here they are in a mountainous area.
Besides, my family is the only one who wants to harvest around here. They opened a machine specifically for these two pieces of land, and the asking price of four hundred and fifty is really not much to say.
But the two pieces of land add up to three or four acres. Ulan thought about it over and over again: Anyway, the excavators on the mountain are still digging pits for fruit trees. They have to wait for the fruit trees to come and the newly returned strong laborers from the village will Go ahead and dig holes carefully to plant trees...
In this case, it costs three hundred yuan a day, so why not let them help with harvesting. Three people can finish the two pieces of land in less than two days.
The only difference now is——
"Didn't sister say that you can hold a class reunion for me when the rice is harvested again?"
Qiao Qiao looked at Song Tan expectantly.
Song Tan: ...
Just... when you are coaxing a child, don't you just open your mouth and say something?
But...even if people come now, there is nothing to sell, and the economic benefits are not high!
But Qiao Qiao has been taught so well now, if she doesn't fulfill it...
Song Tan thought for a while and seriously discussed with him: "It is easy to get hurt if no one is watching when cutting rice. Last time my sister held a class reunion. , They are all watching from the side, it’s very hard.”
“Qiao Qiao, I can’t hold a class reunion for you this year, but when the pigs are slaughtered before the New Year, I will invite five to hold a class reunion for you. Is that okay? ”
“You can invite them to watch the pig being slaughtered, and you can also ask them to help pull the pig legs, and finally you can treat them to the slaughtered pig vegetables.”
You can also sell them when you leave. They have some big and small bags... After all, the Chinese New Year is coming soon, and no matter how stingy you are, you have to be willing to give up some.
Qiaoqiao thought about it for a while, but he wasn't particularly persistent.
He just emphasized very seriously: "When you kill the pig, you must invite it. You can't postpone it to next year."
"It must be sure!" Song Tan also relaxed. tone.
Ulan was busy replying to everyone’s questions, and was extremely happy at the moment: “It takes two days to harvest rice, and several days to plant fruit trees, and then it’s time to sow winter wheat.”
The land has already been plowed, it just needs to be raised more ridges for sowing. The temperature is still a little high these days, and wheat will tend to grow too early if planted early. It is more suitable to wait until the end of the month.
Based on this calculation, the next half month will be busy. None of the available labor force in the village will be wasted. Everyone will have an income...
Ulan thought to himself, work After a lifetime of farm work, it is only this year that I feel there is hope for life.
Ah, thank you for the reward from the Heartless Demon Cat.
To tell you a very desperate thing, I used to be a night shift fanatic. At night, I became passionate, full of inspiration, and my hand speed soared.
Now at night my mind goes blank and I feel sleepy like a dog.
