After I was spurned, the champion husband exploded

Chapter 89 Dried pickled vegetables

At this time, Su Laoer was chopping firewood in the backyard, and his clothes on his chest were wet with sweat. Zhao Qian was cleaning the chicken coop and duck coop in the backyard, letting the ducks go to the river to play in the water.Mrs. Lian had already gone to the river to wash a large basin of clothes early in the morning, and they were now hanging them on the clothesline. Mrs. Zhou was preparing breakfast for everyone in the kitchen. The entire Su family, except Su Yu, was still sleeping. From the master to the servants, no one is idle.

Wang Gang and Bai Mo were really surprised to see the members of the Su family. The master shouldn't be idle, so why let the current people do this? How could the Su family be like this.

Mrs. Lian was drying clothes when she heard footsteps behind her. She turned around and saw two people with smiles on their faces.

"You get up, today you go around the house first, familiarize yourself with the place, and I will tell you what to do tomorrow."

"Yes, ma'am."

Since the two intend to stay, there must be rules and regulations. It was difficult to say it at the beginning. If this was put in the past, the two would never have imagined that the host family in the future would be a country family.

When Su Yu got up, the two came over.

"Girl, we have decided to stay in the Su family, and please keep your promise and let us leave after three years."

"It's natural. I always keep my word. I don't care about your personal affairs, as long as you don't bring trouble to my Su family. "

"Yes, girl."

"Today, you will first familiarize yourself with the surrounding environment. As for what to do, I will arrange it tomorrow morning. Let's go to eat now."

After eating, Su Yu and his father went to the back hillside. Zhou's made pork jerky in the stove house, and Lian set up a big pot in the backyard to cook lard. Now the soap business is good, and the lard needed There are many, Su Yu and the butcher Gao set up five pigs at a price of eight cents per catty every day. Lian's daily work is to make soap. Mountain chopping firewood.

When the father and daughter arrived at the back hillside, looking at the radishes all over the mountains and plains, the second son Su was very happy. Although he couldn't sell them for a lot of money, as a farmer, the prospect of his own land grows well, isn't it the biggest harvest.

"Dad, it's almost time to harvest these radishes. Find someone to harvest them in two days."

"It's almost there. There are so many radishes that have been sold for a long time. We can just dig some radishes a day and sell them. There is no need to find someone."

Su Yu didn't think about it at all. He told his parents about the radish, and now he heard his father say it, and slapped him on the forehead.

"Father, I forgot to tell you that these radishes are not for sale, we keep them at home for cooking."

"With all these radishes, what are you going to make?"

"I've thought about it. The leaves will be made into dry pickles, and the radishes will be made into pickles. They will be sold in shops at that time. More than 20 mu of radishes will be enough for our family to sell for a while. If the business is good, our family will be with the villagers purchase."

"Success, listen to you."

Su Laoer is now used to it, as long as it is said by the daughter, it will be done, and he did not ask why.

When Su Lao Er went to the village to recruit people, he ran around but couldn't find anyone, not even old men and women.

"Second brother, my family is busy making your toothbrush. I really don't have the time. You can go to another house and ask."

Su's second son went to several houses, and the answers he got were all the same. People in the village now look down on the Su family's wages of twenty or thirty Wen. Ten texts.

In the end, Second Su didn't bother to look for them anymore, and went directly to the next-door village, and recruited ten people at the price of [-] Wen per day, plus a few from his own family, which was almost enough.

The soil on the back hillside is soft, so you don't need to dig radishes at all. You can just pull them out and put them away without any effort. That's why Su Yu chose to grow radishes in the first place. She likes to grow radishes to save trouble.

The people were arranged by Su Yu. Five people pulled out radishes in front, and the pulled out radishes were placed in one direction. Behind the five people, one person followed, holding a knife in his hand, and divided the radish leaves and radish into two. The two were responsible for carrying the radish and radish leaves to the small river at the bottom of the slope.Mrs. Lian and Mrs. Zhou put down their work today, and came to collect radishes together. At this time, the two of them were washing radishes by the river. The fresh radishes are very easy to wash, and they will be clean after rinsing in the water. trouble.

The washed radish leaves were taken home by Wang Gang and hung to dry on the ropes pulled in the yard.The washed radishes were placed in bamboo baskets, and the two women cut them into thick slices, and then cut the thick slices into thin strips, but the radishes were not cut off at one end, which was more convenient for drying.

Wang Gang took a cart full of radish leaves back and dried them in the open space next to the Su family. This land belonged to the Su family, and the homestead they bought at that time could not be used up. The remaining piece of radish had other plans, but It's been empty for a while now.

Yesterday, several men at home made bamboo stakes and tied strings on them. Wang Gang hung the cut radish slices on the strings to dry in the sun. People who learn martial arts don't think it's a big deal when doing this kind of work. Bai Mo Likewise, she was not very good at washing and chopping radishes, so she took the initiative to carry the radishes down the mountain, and Su Yu let her do it.

Of course, when the family is busy, the Yu family's master and servant are indispensable, and the two of them did not say anything, just pulled the radishes in the field for a day.

No one in her house made lunch today, but luckily she was busy this morning, so Su Yu asked Aunt Zhou to bake some pancakes, boiled a large pot of chicken soup on the pot, Wang Gang threw some firewood into it when he returned to the yard to dry the radish leaves , By noon, the chicken soup was ready.

During the meal, the ten women recruited from the next village complained very much. At first, they were quite happy when they heard that the Su family’s wages were [-] Wen, but they couldn’t be happy after working for a long time. The Su family must work too hard.Moreover, this work was done one after another, so even if they wanted to be lazy, they couldn't. Even the women who worked the hardest were so tired that they couldn't even straighten their backs.But when they saw that what the Su family ate today was pancakes and chicken soup, and each person still had more than half a bowl of chicken in their bowl, no one said anything.

After a busy day, more than 20 acres of radishes have been harvested.The main reason is that the yield in ancient times was low. To have a high yield like modern radish, more than 20 acres would have to be busy for at least three days.

The current weather does not worry about rain, and there is no need to harvest at night. It is almost the same after a few days of drying.Take back the radish strips and cut them into cubes, add all kinds of seasonings and mix well, and fill more than a dozen large tanks. The family has been busy for two days, and the radish slices are finished. The next step is the radish leaves. This is It's a little troublesome.

Su Yu first asked several large pots of gruel to be boiled, put five bowls of rice in a large iron pot, boiled it for an hour, poured the gruel into large vats, poured half a vat of gruel into each pot, and it was full. Ten tanks, then put the dried radish leaves in several big tanks, make sure that the porridge is covered with radish leaves, put the big tanks in the sun to dry, turn it over every morning, and wait for seven or eight days, and wait for the tanks After the pungent sour smell can be smelled, the radish leaves in the tank are taken out to dry.

After drying, use gauze to drain out the juice residue in the jar, leaving only its juice. Pour some oil on the bottom of the pot to prevent it from sticking to the pot. Then pour the juice into the pot and boil it for an hour, then put it out in the sun. Boil the dried radish leaves in the juice. After the juice dries, take out the radish leaves and roll them into a circle to dry. After drying, the dried pickles are ready.

　I make some dried pickled vegetables, a specialty of the Dai family, every year.
