Sign-in space: I grew rich in ancient times

Chapter 86 Empathy is used like this
Chen Huiyin nodded affirmatively: "Sir, you should have noticed that the surface of the winter melon we store is covered with a thick layer of powder. As long as this kind of winter melon is not broken, it can be stored for a long time. As for the old pumpkin, it can be stored for a long time. Because the outer skin is hard and has a certain thickness, and the weather is cool now, it can be stored for a long time even if it is not opened."

The doubts in Wu Shengzhe's heart were answered, and he asked curiously: "I was also in the village before, and found that except for your family who kept a lot of old pumpkins, most of the other houses sold them to Gu's firm when the pumpkins were still tender. Since the old pumpkin can be used as a dish, why don't they keep some?"

Chen Huiyin explained with some embarrassment: "In my house, the old pumpkin can be used as a dish or a staple food, but in other villagers' homes, it is only a staple food, and every family's method is the same.

It is to boil the diced old pumpkin with a lot of water to make a paste, then sprinkle corn flour in it, stir it quickly with chopsticks while sprinkling, and wait for the pumpkin paste to thicken before it can be out of the pot.

I heard from my father that a few years ago, people in the village ate like this almost every time after the autumn harvest. They saved the cornmeal and corn grits for the spring plowing in the next year. Work hard.

After the spring plowing, they returned to eating porridge every day, but it was not pumpkin porridge, but corn porridge, which is the corn dough that my husband used to eat. In the past two years, because of goat milk and cold vegetables, the life of each family has been much easier , No one will eat pumpkin paste and corn dough. "

After listening to the explanation, Wu Shengzhe could understand it. Even if the old pumpkin tastes sweet and the corn has a pleasant smell, if you eat it like this after a while, you will sometimes get tired of it. Farmers in the northern region have a hard time.

Wei Chen on the side listened for a while, and couldn't hold back and said: "I haven't eaten pumpkin paste, but corn dumplings are delicious, why don't they eat them, don't they think that corn dumplings are not a meal?
These people are really picky eaters. If I were to eat three meals a day, I would be too happy. "Thinking of the corn balls he ate, Wei Chen couldn't hold back and swallowed.

Mu Yang was on the side, although he felt something was wrong, but he didn't want to understand what was wrong, so he nodded accordingly.

Upon hearing this, Wu Shengzhe looked at Mu Yang and Wei Chen thoughtfully.

Mu Yang and Wei Chen felt terrified when they were watched by their husbands, and they immediately felt a bad feeling in their hearts.

Wu Shengzhe then pursed his lips and smiled, and said to the two of them: "Since you two think the corn dough is delicious, after the study tour is over, go back, and I will inform you Aunt Zhou, and you will eat three meals a day for a month." Let’s stir the corn, I think you should be able to realize something after eating it.”

To be honest, Mu Yang and Wei Chen really miss the taste of corn chowder, they really want to eat it often, but now they are arranged by the teacher like homework, the two feel a little wrong, But he couldn't tell the reason, so he looked at Chen Huiyin and Tang Yaoling as if asking for help.

Who is Chen Huiyin? The undercover master in her previous life was best at keeping her face down, so she lowered her head early, and her little hands were diligently adding some dry branches to the simple stove, and then put the soup that everyone had drank into. Putting the bowl away, he didn't meet the eyes of Mu Yang and Wei Chen the whole time.

Tang Yaoling on the side was really dumbfounded when he saw the two people asking for help. Although he was a little envious, he also felt that something was wrong, so he didn't speak for a while.

At this time, Chen Huiyin rescued him: "Da Lang, Mu Yang, Wei Chen, hurry up, go to the river to wash these things out, and then boil the water. It's not good to be delayed on the road at noon."

Although Mu Yang and Wei Chen thought they were still in a cold war with Chen Huiyin and Tang Yaoling, they would never bully the small with the big, so they picked up the earthen pot one by one, four bamboo tubes by the other, and put the lightest bowl and spoon Leave it to two people.

When he got to the river, Mu Yang felt uneasy, he struggled for a while while washing the earthen pot, decided not to fight coldly, and then he took the initiative to ask: "Sister Qiao, why did the master suddenly let us eat three meals a day for a month of corn chowder. "

While washing the dishes, Chen Huiyin replied, "It's not that Wei Chen said that the people in the village are picky eaters, but if he eats three meals a day, he's too happy, so I think the husband wants to verify it!"

Chen Huiyin didn't make it clear. Children are like this. They may not believe what others say. The best way is to let them experience it themselves. This is how empathy is used.

Mu Yang still felt that something was wrong, but Wei Chen was more innocent, and immediately snorted: "I will definitely win this time, let me show you, the people in the village are picky eaters."

Tang Yaoling on the side looked at Wei Chen inexplicably at this moment. Although he didn't understand the problem, he had already realized that the task assigned by his husband to eat corn for a month clearly meant punishment. Chen still dared to say that he would win without shame.

Mu Yang also saw Tang Yaoling's expression, and the bad feeling in his heart became stronger. He felt that he couldn't find anything from Chen Huiyin, so he asked Tang Yaoling: "Da Lang, what do you mean, sir?"

Tang Yaoling shook his head honestly: "I don't know, I just think the task assigned to you by your husband is very strange."

Then Mu Yang and Wei Chen, who didn't ask for the result, went back with a crock of water. Chen Huiyin and Tang Yaoling went back with four diabolo tubes and five bowls and spoons.

Boil the water and pour it into the four bamboo tubes. Once the fire is extinguished, everyone climbs back into the car and continues to set off.

The first stop of their study tour was Baojing County. In the middle of the afternoon, they saw the city wall of Baojing County. Baojing County, like Huaiyuan County, is an upper county, so the city walls and gates are not comparable. , five masters and apprentices lined up to enter the city.

Wu Shengzhe drove the mule cart directly to the tooth shop, handed the cart over to the staff of the tooth shop to watch temporarily, and then entered the tooth shop with four disciples.

Seeing a customer coming, Wu Yazi hurriedly greeted him with a smile. While leading Wu Shengzhe and his disciples to sit down, he asked, "Is the guest officer buying and selling land, real estate, and renting a house, short-term or long-term?"

"To rent a house, I want to rent a small independent yard, preferably a house with daily rent. We will only stay in the county for three or four days."

Wu Yazi thought for a while, and then said: "Lang Jun is lucky, I happen to have a small yard in my hand, and the guest just returned the lease this morning. This small yard is a main room with two rooms. There is a shed and a well in the yard. , the water is very convenient, the rent is also cheap, and the tenant’s daily settlement is also accepted.”

"Okay, then take us to see the house, and we will rent it if it suits you." Seeing that the old man only mentioned this place, Wu Shengzhe knew that there was no other choice. Although there were fewer rooms, they were still crowded and could still be accommodated. of.
