Under Ye Yuran's "prompts", Zhu Bamei recited the first chapter of the first volume of "Sound Rhythm Enlightenment" intermittently.

Before going to bed, she asked Zhu Bamei to recite it a few more times, and did not let her go until she saw that she had memorized it well.

Zhu Bamei, who was let go, breathed a sigh of relief, quickly turned over and closed her eyes.

She silently muttered in her heart: It's terrible, my mother actually started asking me to carry things! Fortunately, I carried things down, otherwise it would be like the first and second treasures. If they can't carry things, they won't be able to eat. It would be miserable.

Unfortunately, Zhu Bamei didn't know that she was soon included in Zhu Qi, Dabao and Erbao's "reciting army".

There is no way, no matter how hard she is, she is not the main labor force of the Zhu family. Even during the busy farming season, she is still a dawdling type.

Before the autumn harvest comes, there is a market.

Going to the market this time is very important, as many farmers need to make purchases to prepare for the autumn harvest in a few days.

Ye Yuran naturally needed it too. She counted the basket of eggs she had saved, then looked at the pounded sweet potato flour and the remaining rice bran and dried sweet potatoes, and thought about how to arrange the meals during the autumn harvest.

.

She called Mrs. Li over and asked her how much jam she had in her hand.

"Mom, why are you asking?" Since she got the business, Mrs. Li has a big belly and feels windy when she walks.

People say that once you have money in your hands, you will be confident.

Ms. Li is no exception. Ever since her mother-in-law asked her to have "private money", she has saved a basket of food in a few days. Except for 20% of which she has to keep for the public house, she and a few other people share the rest.

.

At the end of the day, although there wasn't much, she was very happy to be able to get half a basket or something.

Because it was just a small amount, she asked someone to send it back to her parents' home, so that her parents could save food for a few days.

"I'm going to the market in a few days. I was wondering if I should take some to buy at the market?"

As soon as Ye Yuran finished speaking, Mrs. Li's eyes lit up. She sat down and said, "Mom, you really want to go with me. This morning, I also discussed with my sister-in-law to let her kill pigweed.

, when we encounter small red fruits, pick more and bring them back, so that when the time comes we can help with some more jam, and we can sell them during the market. Even if it’s not much, it’s okay to buy some meat and bones for the family.”

This means that Mrs. Li knows how to be a good person. When people don’t say what they want to buy for her parents’ family or for herself, they say “home”, which makes the listeners feel comfortable.

"Also," Ms. Li continued, "my little sister has knitted a lot of bracelets in the past few days. I am going to save them and buy them at the market."

Safflower dyeing is not so easy to dye. After it was soaked in water that day, the yellow juice (i.e. yellow pigment) was removed with a cloth bag, and most of the remainder was red pigment.

But this was not enough, Ye Yuran asked Zhu Bamei to rinse it with sour rice water to further remove the remaining yellow juice, and finally got the residual flower cake containing red pigment.

This method, called the "flower killing method" in ancient times, is one of the older methods.

It is also simple to use, just use straw ash to clarify it a few times, and then it can be used for dyeing.

However, it cannot be used to directly dye the bracelet that has already been made. For fear of damage due to soaking, dried brown leaves, hemp rope and the like are used as raw materials for dyeing, and then dried and knitted.

In fact, after dyeing, use ebony acidic water to treat it, which has the effect of fixing the color. Because the conditions at home are too simple, this step is omitted. Just tell the seller when selling it that this thing cannot be exposed to water or sweat, otherwise it will be easy to "faint"

”.

Not to mention, although it is not particularly red, it is already very beautiful, and the effect of the weaving is quite amazing.

At least in the eyes of Zhu Bamei and Li, don't be too beautiful.

When Ye Yuran heard what she said, she naturally remembered it, but she also thought of something. She said, "Wait a moment."

Then he took a sealed ceramic jar from the windowsill.

When Mrs. Li looked at the jar, she remembered: "Ah, yes, you made some sort of sauce with that crab last time. It has been there for so many days and I almost forgot. Mom, is this marinated ready?

?”

"You'll know just by looking at it." Ye Yuran is quite confident in her own skills.

She had never done any of these things by herself in her previous life, so she felt that as long as there were no accidents, there shouldn't be any big problems.

Sure enough, when she opened the lid, a strong fragrance wafted out of it.

Ms. Li swallowed her saliva and said, "Mom, it smells so good!"

"This is cold. You are pregnant and cannot eat it." Ye Yuran understood the meaning of her words and wanted to try it.

Sure enough, as soon as she finished speaking, Mrs. Li said: "Mom, I will try it, just a little bit."

She pointed to her little finger and added, "Just a little bit. I also tasted it when I cooked crabs last time, and it was fine at all."

Ye Yuran was a little helpless and asked her to get the chopsticks.

Mrs. Li was very positive and quickly went to get it.

Ye Yuran dipped a little bit of the flavor into it and tasted it: Well, how should I put it?

The smell was definitely there, it must be this crab. Due to the lack of ingredients, the fishy smell was extremely strong. Compared with what she remembered, it was completely incomparable.

"Mom, how do you like it? Is it delicious?" Ms. Li asked impatiently.

Ye Yuran looked at her big belly and was really worried. If she hadn't known that Mr. Li was always in good health, she would definitely not "indulge" Mr. Li like this.

"We agreed in advance that we can only taste a little bit. If you eat it secretly behind my back, something will happen to the baby in your belly. Don't say I didn't warn you."

Li's baby in her belly struggled with the delicious food in front of her and chose, "Just try a little bit to get a taste."

"It's not like I won't do it for you when you give birth in the future."

"I know, Mom is the best to me, but if I don't try it, how can I describe to them how delicious this food is?" Li looked at it eagerly, "Mom, you can only speak after you have tried it.

right."

"Okay, just a little." Ye Yuran really dipped a little with his chopsticks and put it into Mrs. Li's mouth.

Mrs. Li smacked her mouth and smacked her mouth, looking so beautiful: "It's really delicious, but it's just too little. It would be nice if I could eat more."

Although she is a bit greedy, she still attaches great importance to the child in her belly. She knows that there will be no problem if she only eats a small amount, so she eats it boldly, otherwise she would not taste it at all.

Ye Yuran burst into laughter.

"Mom, it's so delicious that I can't bear to sell it. Otherwise, why don't we keep it for ourselves? Our family is about to harvest in autumn, and we all need to improve our food."

"Sell them all. You can use the money to buy something else. You can't fill your stomach just by eating this."

Ye Yuran's words silenced Mrs. Li. She couldn't eat anyway, so she fought for it for everyone. It was her mother who didn't agree. When everyone knew it, they couldn't blame her.

The mother-in-law and daughter-in-law discussed and soon decided on the things to "sell" at the market. They also discussed what things needed to be purchased at home.

Li did not expect that her mother -in -law would discuss this with herself, and she was so happy. When she went back to bed at night, she still looked like a smile, which hurt Zhu Si and thought she had picked up treasures.

"Just pick up the treasure!" Li said with a smile.

"What treasure did you pick up?"
