Chapter 74
Song Liyun was washing the pot with hot water, nodded: "Brother, the vegetables are so tender, they must taste delicious."

"Hey! Of course it's tender. She hasn't grown up yet, and it will take at least half a month to eat it. Why are you pulling it out now?"

Song Zhenping said anxiously. He thought that Xiaoyun didn't understand, and explained: "There are too many seedlings, too crowded and poorly grown. Only by keeping good seedlings can they grow."

Song Liyun smiled and said, "What will the vegetable seedlings be used for when they grow up?"

"Eat!" Song Zhenping was a little confused, asking this question again, of course growing vegetables is eating.

"Yes! I'm eating right now!"

"That's not right, you have to grow up and eat!"

"Starting to eat now, I can thin out the seedlings every day, have tender vegetables every day, and eat the biggest plants every day."

"No, farming can't be like this..."

Song Zhenping was so anxious that his brow was sweating, and he wanted to explain that the vegetables had to be grown.

This is the same as an ethical question that once caused people to think deeply: there is a basket of apples in front of you, should you eat the best one first, or pick the worst one?
It is said that you can tell the difference between a pessimist and an optimist by how you choose.

Song Liyun came from the end of the world, of course, no matter how good or bad, eat first and then eat up.

She didn't say much, and just put the filled noodles in Song Zhenping's hands: "Are you hungry? Eat when you're hungry, and we'll talk after eating."

With such delicious noodles in front of him, Song Zhenping's stomach growled in an instant, and he murmured, "What a pity!"

With a mouthful of fragrance, the saliva welled up, and he was almost choked.

The body is the most honest.

Xiao An came over after washing his hands, and saw that his face and eyes were shining. For him, of course, there is food.

For Song Zhenping, the days that followed were both happy and worrying.

Sure enough, vegetables can be grown in the greenhouse, and the growth is gratifying. Looking at the green in winter, he just soaks in the greenhouse from time to time and does not want to leave except for making acorn tofu.

But Xiaoyun is also very good at eating, saying that the tender vegetables are delicious, but they will be pulled out when they grow up a little.

Every time he sees these vegetables being stir-fried in the pot before they grow up, he will feel guilty and feel guilty to eat an extra bowl of rice.

Not only him, but everyone ate with great appetite, rice bowls and noodle bowls were almost sky-high.

He wants to save money, but also wants to buy rice for his younger brothers and sisters, make fine cotton clothes, and buy back when he encounters mutton and horse meat sellers, but he can't let Yun'er touch the treasure bag again.

To support such expenses, his income of more than 20 cash a day is definitely not enough.

Fortunately, there were no worries for two days. When the first snow foam fell, the business of acorn tofu suddenly improved.

Boss Mu's place has increased from three pots to five pots, and his daily income has also risen to 45 cash. If this continues, it will be just around the corner to make a fortune.

On this day, on the way back after delivering the goods, Song Zhenping was stopped by Xue Zhuang.

Mrs. Cui has been selling acorn tofu at a small dining table for more than half a month. During the previous quarrel, they both knew who was buying and who was selling, and the two families also had a tacit understanding.

At this time Xue Zhuang called to stop him, Song Zhenping suddenly became nervous.

Leaving the barracks, not training hard, marrying a daughter-in-law and having a family, plus three meals a day, Xue Zhuang is gaining weight as far as the naked eye can see, and adding a sheepskin cloak that he doesn't know where he came from, he is getting bigger and bigger.

Even after eating enough for two months, Song Zhenping was still thin and weak like a chicken standing in front of him.

Song Zhenping frowned and said nervously: "Master Xue..." As soon as he said the words, he remembered that Xue Zhuang was no longer a sergeant. He wanted to change his words, but he didn't know what to shout.

Xue Zhuang looked at Song Zhenping and laughed: "Daping, I heard Lao Mu call you like that, you don't mind!"

Song Zhenping became more and more nervous, holding the package in his hand tightly, took a step back and said, "What are you going to do?"

I had a quarrel with Xue at a banquet, and later Uncle Kui said he was careful of being retaliated against, and I usually don't meet him, so why did he become polite for no reason at this time.

This is outside the town, there is no one around, and I am still carrying red sugar cubes. These things cost fifty yuan, so don't be robbed.

Xue Zhuang smiled cordially and enthusiastically: "Brother Ping, I am twenty-five years old this year, and I am married, so just be a big brother. You can call me Big Brother Xue."

"You see, both of us are military households, and now we are brothers.

In the past, I should blame my elder brother for drinking and losing my temper, which offended Brother Ping and Sister Yun.

Time has passed for a long time, if there are any gaps, brother, just put more, don't worry about it. "

Hearing that he wanted to reconcile with himself, Song Zhenping felt a little more at ease. He had also met Xue Zhuang when he was choosing a house, and if it weren't for the nonsense words of the sergeants when they were drinking, he would not have any ill feelings towards Xue Zhuang.

At this time, when I heard the apology, most of the disgust in my heart disappeared, but I couldn't say anything beautiful, so I could only nod indiscriminately: "Don't care, don't care!"

Xue Zhuang laughed even more when he heard the words, stepped forward and patted him on the shoulder and said: "It's still early today, my brother will sit at the elder brother's place for a while, I brought some good meat from the guard, we two brothers drink wine to warm up .”

Song Zhenping was terrified by his sudden slap, and shook his head again and again: "No, I have to go back to peel the acorns, later...later!"

"Hey! After what, let's go, it's rare to see each other, it's better to hit the sun than to choose a day, just today."

Xue Zhuang took Song Zhenping's arm like an eagle catching a chick. Song Zhenping couldn't struggle, so he was forcibly taken away by half dragging and half hugging.

It was noon, and Song Liyun cooked the rice. She waited and waited but Song Zhenping did not come back. Seeing that Xiao An was already rubbing her stomach with hunger, she didn't intend to wait any longer.

First, I gave Xiao An the baked pancakes and millet porridge and pickles, and then gave Hei Jin a coarse grain pancake, and then said to the two:

"Xiao An, you and Hei Jin have dinner at home first, I will go to the town to find my brother, and be careful to lock the door."

Although it has been snowing for the past two days, it is only sparse snow particles, and the road is not difficult to walk.

She was worried that something happened to Boss Mu, which delayed Song Zhenping.

Xiao An and Hei Jin were already used to staying at home, and they all nodded when they heard this. Hei Jin also seriously sent Song Liyun out, and when she left, he tumbling back to the kitchen.

Xiao An was stepping on a stool to open the lid of the pot: "Hei Jin, there are sugar bags in the pot!"

Hei Jin immediately rolled up his lips and "smiled".

Walking out of the miscellaneous forest, Song Liyun pulled out a square scarf to cover her head, and strode towards the town.

When she got to Boss Mu's shop, except for two sergeants who were shopping, she didn't see Song Zhenping.

When the two sergeants saw a girl suddenly approaching, they stood aside and whispered.

Song Liyun was anxious and asked Boss Mu, who was pulling a leather wine bag from the corner of the shelf, regardless of the presence of other people, "Boss Mu, has my brother been here today?"

Boss Mu's head was full of dust. Seeing that it was Song Liyun, he was surprised and said, "Isn't Daping in a hurry to go home and peel the acorns? I can't let him stay for a while. He said you want to make some cakes and left with brown sugar. What? , I haven't reached home yet, it's impossible!"
