Nongmen Space: Farming lady is not easy to mess with

Chapter 298 Are You Village Chief Shu?
Qin's knees were half bent, hesitating whether to kneel down, but Jing Yunyan had already urged her to go out.

She swallowed, glanced at Village Chief He nervously, and saw Shu Yingtong coming out of the aisle with a wooden basin and walked straight outside, after thinking about it, she followed.

Looking at the dress on Shu Yingtong's body, she opened her mouth with a bitter face and didn't know what to say.

It is still dressed similarly to yesterday, the style and color are good-looking, but the linen material is not uncommon in the village, and it is better than burlap.

When the two came here yesterday, they were talking about businessmen, but now they took out a gold medal, which is a gift from the emperor.
In this shabby house of my own, I can't provide any decent food for guests. I can't even give a bowl of brown sugar water. I must be neglecting it.
"I'll come, I'll come~" Mrs. Qin chased up and snatched the ladle, and lifted the lid of the water tank, "Madam is waiting in the room, I'll bring it to you."

"Don't bother, just do your own thing." Shu Yingtong took out the toiletries in the basin, and glanced at the embarrassed Qin, "I'm the village head of Huanshan Village, Yuan County, and I'm not as honorable as you think. "

She prefers the down-to-earth identity of the village head compared to the inflated identity Jing Yunyan brought her.

Huanshan Village is the result of her step-by-step efforts. There are all kinds of villagers there, and they are all her concerns.

"Hey! Are you Village Chief Shu?" Mrs. Qin suddenly became excited, "I know! My cousin is married in Wuhuai Village, not far from Huanshan Village! My husband went there once to pick up the dowry !My cousin’s husband’s surname is Chen, and he is the head of Wuhuai Village!”

Shu Yingtong sorted out the relationship between people from her words, the cousin she said should be Dali's cousin, who married and followed her husband, and was called according to her husband's seniority.

When a girl gets married, all the cousins ​​in the clan will carry the dowry to her relatives. Firstly, they want to make a festive scene, and secondly, they secretly hint to her in-laws that their natal brothers are here to support her.

"I met Village Chief Chen once." Shu Yingtong replied lightly.

The villagers of the two villages almost fought because of Yulian's incident.

The young village chief was okay, and his manner of speaking was modest and polite.

It's just a little frightened, and it's easy to be used as a gun.

"My cousins ​​came back to my mother's house for a while at the beginning of the year and talked about you!" Mrs. Qin was very happy and looked at her with admiration on her face, "You are the Village Chief Shu they said, you are so amazing , too capable!"

My cousin's aunt married in Wuhuai Village, and the three generations of the Chen family have all been the head of Wuhuai Village, so they have some family background.

My cousin has a gentle personality and is good at needlework, tea and rice. My grandfather is a scholar, and I knew some characters when I was a child when I lived in my grandfather's house.

The cousin-in-law looks upright and has a good character.

The cousin's aunt and aunt's mediator brokered the two marriages.

At the beginning of the year, the couple came to the house as guests, and the farmers couldn't talk about anything else, such as the harvest, the children, and interesting things in the village.

When my cousin-in-law mentioned Huanshan Village, he gave him a thumbs up and applauded repeatedly.

Not to mention a large piece of wasteland turned into fields, the two rows of green brick buildings were built beside the official road.

As soon as I inquired, the whole village was built together, and it didn't cost money!
Everyone lives in a good house, and anyone who hears it will be envious.

My cousin-in-law said that the village head of Huanshan Village was powerful and strange, and there were hundreds of starving households. After one winter, none of them starved to death or froze to death.

The river has been repaired, the houses have been built, and the ground has been opened. Those villagers are all tough and not to be messed with.

The things planted in spring are weird, and I don't know what effect they have. When I ask them, they all keep their mouths shut.

"Thank you." Shu Yingtong calmly scooped out the water, and squatted by the ditch under the eaves to brush his teeth.

Qin looked curiously at the tooth powder box, bamboo cup and toothbrush left on the low table, but dared not touch them.

Thinking of what Jing Yunyan explained, he realized that he was so excited that he forgot to make breakfast.

"Oh." She patted her forehead.

But I searched the cupboards and grain urns and couldn't find anything decent.

Seeing the basket on the low table, she sighed, she really wanted to use other people's delicious food.

She turned around briefly, grabbed a small jar the size of a palm, and sniffed it closer, her eyes lit up, sweet wine!
There is sugar and sweet wine, and there are foot planks dug in the mountains last year at home!

After Shu Yingtong washed and looked around at the vegetables grown in the vegetable field in the courtyard, she came back and saw Mrs. Qin sitting on a low stool grabbing a huge edamame and peeling the skin, while the aunt was sitting there peeling the edamame.

At this time, the edamame is not yet full, the pods are tender but not old, the pods are emerald green, and the hairs are fine and dense.

Some pods have only one bean with a shriveled tail, while others are bulging and have two bean kernels.

She frowned slightly. I heard them talk about eating beans and rice last night, so I still eat this in the morning?
Didn't Ah Yan just use her as an excuse to ask Mrs. Tan to use the ingredients in the basket to improve her guy's food?
"What's for breakfast?"

Mrs. Qin grabbed the slippery potato and put it into a basin to wash, looked up and said with a smile: "I see that there are sweet rice wine and powdered sugar in the basket. You and my son eat kang potato."

Shu Yingtong turned to look at the basket of edamame, "Then what do you eat, edamame?"

"Yes." With a pottery bowl on her lap, the aunt quickly peeled the pods and picked out the beans, "There is nothing to eat at this time, and I can't go to the mountains. Thanks to my paddy fields not far away, vegetables are grown in the yard." .”

The village chief came and was talking to the young master about smallpox in the main room.

She listened in fear in the room for a while, and after confirming that they would not tie up Dali and send them to the county government, she let go of her hanging heart. She felt close and in awe of the couple in her heart.

"Let's cook vegetable porridge." Shu Yingtong took out the grain bag in the basket, a small sack with only a few catties of rice in it, "I see that the kale in your vegetable field is growing well, my husband likes to eat it."

Before they refused, she took a scoop and dug a small scoop out of a rice bag and handed it to the aunt.

"This" she hesitated to answer.

So much rice, porridge can be boiled out of a wooden pot
More than enough to eat two meals
"Cook some unshelled salted edamame for me to eat on the road." Shu Yingtong folded the ladle on the pottery bowl on the aunt's lap, turned around and took out half a preserved fish from the basket.

Farmers do not grow soybeans to eat edamame as a snack. Even if they eat it, they occasionally pick a little and come back for cooking.

They do not plant soybeans on a large scale, but interplant them on the ridges of fields.Harvest at the end of summer and store them as bean seeds, and measure some out to make tofu during Chinese New Year.

Last year's drought caused a poor crop harvest, and this year has just entered summer, and the family obviously has no staple food.

There is no food, what is available in the fields to eat, can survive this period of time, and the rice will be much better after it comes down.

If you can go up the mountain, you can dig some common herbal tea herbs and go to the town market to set up a stall and sell them to the town residents to supplement their families. However, the village head locked him in the village, so there was no other way.

"Okay, okay, then I'll pick a pot that's full and cook it for you."

The aunt happily agreed, and hurriedly carried the things on her lap to the ground, opened the drawer of the cabinet, and found a small bag tied with red hemp rope among the old and new oiled paper bags of different sizes.

I sighed regretfully in my heart, the spices are there, but unfortunately there is no soy sauce at home, and I heard that the edamame sold in the wine shop is all stewed.
