Chapter 62 I blah blah blah!
Xu Jiaojiao was still wondering, could someone really starve to death?
Maybe it's true.
The family she traveled through was a slightly wealthier family in Xujiacun. They ate two meals of solid food a day, and everyone envied them. The lives of other families were hard to come by.
It's not surprising to starve to death.
Mrs. Xu Zhang interrupted Xu Youde, "Bah, bah, bah! The more you talk, the more serious you become. Are you the master of the mountain or the village land security guard? What do you care about these things? This is the money my daughter earns.
, It’s none of other people’s business? Don’t try to fool our old girl with big ideas. I will fight with anyone who wants to swindle her money. I’ll say it again, this is all my old girl’s hard-earned money. I’ll give it to you.
The wages are pretty good, so don’t think too much, just shut up and don’t fool me!"
Ahem!
Xu Youde obediently shut his mouth.
Xu Laoer was a dull man and didn't answer the call at first, and now he couldn't answer the call anymore.
Xu Youde was scolded by Mrs. Xu Zhang, but he didn't want to talk too much to the women.
Not on the same level.
The little beans only focused on the delicious food on the table, eagerly looking forward to when Mrs. Xu Zhang would give out rice!
The atmosphere instantly became quiet.
Xu Zhang saw Xiao Liuzi drooling all over the table in front of him, and finally started to make some moves.
"Give me a meal! Eat and shut up your fooling mouths!"
Xu Youde, Xu Zhang, and Xu Jiaojiao sent two big meat buns each, then Xu Lao Er and Xu Lao Si each had two big meat buns.
Each of the remaining people was given a big meat bun.
There is still more than half of the meat buns left in the basin!
The food today is so rich that there is no need to cook vegetables and porridge until it becomes mushy.
"Okay, let's have dinner. Your old lady said that today is a celebration banquet to celebrate the successful conclusion of this year's loquat paste business. I bought so many delicious foods for you to eat with open stomachs. You have finished eating the meat buns, but you haven't eaten them yet.
If you are full, take it for yourself. Take as much as you can eat. Don’t waste it. Don’t force yourself to eat. I won’t ask a doctor to see you if your belly is full. Don’t let me find out that someone is not eating and hide it.
I'll go drink the northwest wind next time! Do you hear me?"
"I heard you! Milk!"
…
Just wait for this order to be given.
Apart from the Chinese New Year, when Lao Xu's family can eat with open stomachs, how can there be such a good time in ordinary times?
The big meat buns plus the table full of meat dishes!
Good things that I never dreamed of are happening now.
What are you waiting for? Let your belly go and eat!
Not only was there delicious food, Xu Jiaojiao also specially bought some corn wine. Xu Youde, Xu Lao Er and Xu Lao Si all had a glass of corn wine in front of them.
Eat meat, drink some wine, and live your life as happily as you want.
Xu Laosi sighed with emotion, "Dad, since my eldest brother was selected as a scholar, our family has not had such a rich meal in many years, and we can also drink some wine!"
Mentioning the boss, Xu Zhang's face darkened, but she did not speak.
Xu Youde took a sip of the wine and said, "Yeah, I haven't known the taste of wine for many years. It's rare that I have such a good meal today. It's a pity that your elder brother is not here. Your sister can make loquat ointment to make money. Thanks to reading your elder brother's book, you got it.
In light of this, studying is still good. In our family, your eldest brother is the only one who is good at studying..."
At this time, Mrs. Xu Zhang could not bear it anymore.
Bah!
"Our family's life is burdened by the boss. We study for him. How many fields have we sold? We used to eat three meals a day, but now we have two meals. Who do we owe it to? We still get a lot of money. What kind of money is this?
Why? If he is smart, why doesn't he make loquat paste and sell his own books? He grew up in the country, and it's not like he doesn't know about the loquat forest. Oh, my daughter made loquat paste and dipped it in it.
He fell in love with him. Some people are so evil that they will tell nonsense when they open their eyes after eating the big meat buns bought by my daughter..."
Xu Youde was slapped in the face and felt uncomfortable. His attitude towards the old girl had improved a lot, and his impression of the old girl had improved a lot through the loquat ointment. However, he couldn't stand Xu Zhang's reminder at this moment, and again
Being ranked lower than the boss, I couldn't help but feel a bit resentful.
He opened his mouth, but was unable to refute, and his face darkened, "I don't have the same level of experience as you, a woman."
Mrs. Xu Zhang exclaimed, "I'm not the same as you. You're so biased that you went to my grandma's house. Boss, why don't you go and eat at my grandma's house? Why are you eating the meat buns that my old daughter bought?"
You have a backbone, but you won’t eat it! Go and take advantage of your boss!”
…
Xu Jiaojiao searched her memory for impressions of the eldest son of the Xu family. She didn't find much, just an image of a gentle, middle-aged scholar.
He was selected as a scholar when he was in his twenties. Later, he stayed in the county to study and failed to win the exam.
I married a daughter of a single family in Qingshui Town. She is now about forty years old and has a son and a daughter. They are the eldest son of the Xu family and the eldest daughter of the Xu family.
For many years, I would bring my wife and children back during the holidays, and rarely went back to my hometown in the countryside.
In the county town, I make a living by giving door-to-door enlightenment lessons to wealthy families...
Here, I saw that the old couple was about to quarrel.
No one around me dared to say anything.
Xu Laosi just wanted to slap himself in the mouth. There were so many delicious food and drinks. Why did he talk about the scholar?
He quickly advised, "Mom, dad, don't talk anymore. It's thanks to my sister that we have such delicious food. Let's eat, dad, second brother, and the three of us have a drink!"
Xu Youde was persuaded and started drinking with the fourth child.
Xu Jiaojiao also took a large piece of steamed pork and put it in Xu Zhang's bowl, "Mom, you eat it. It's soft, glutinous and fragrant, and it's delicious."
Mrs. Xu Zhang no longer criticizes Xu Youde.
This matter has finally stopped.
Xu Jiaojiao gave Xu Zhang another tofu ball and ate one herself, "Mom, when did soy products start to be sold in this town?"
There are already soy products, which shows that productivity is not particularly backward and low.
It's just that the countryside in Xujiacun is too poor.
It's like traveling to an ancient village, where there is nothing, and the heroine makes a fortune by making tofu. It seems that she doesn't have to think about it.
Now that the loquat season is over, she plans to think about new ways to make money.
Xu Zhang said, "Bean products? Are you talking about this tofu, thousands of bean skins? They have been there for a long time! In the Tofu Xishi family who sells tofu in the town, their ancestors made tofu. It is said that they have been passed down for hundreds of years.
The tofu at home is delicious, the soft tofu is cold and the old tofu is delicious when fried, but it consumes a lot of oil, and the tofu is not cheap, it is made with vegetarian meat! We farmers generally can't afford it, and it's not because of you, our family
I rarely eat soy products during the Chinese New Year, let alone tofu and minced meat balls.”
