Chapter 37

But with Erya here, it was hard for him to speak.

After Uncle Cao left, the Shen sisters and Da Ya and Er Ya were busy in the kitchen.

Huo Lin carried a big bamboo basket and filled two baskets. Uncle Huo visually inspected and said that it weighed fifty kilograms.

Shen Qing wiped his sweat and said, "I will go to town to sell it early tomorrow morning."

"I'll go with you too, take me with you!" Er Ya tugged at her sleeve coquettishly.

Shen Qing said: "What are you going to do if you run around? I can't see you."

Da Ya was also very excited, "I'll go too, and I'll watch her."

After settling down, they started boiling water to take a bath. They worked until the moon reached the treetops. Only then did a few people fall asleep. Naturally, they crowded on the same kang.

In the Huo family's house, Huo Yunzhou had just returned from a car accident and handed Uncle Huo something.

Uncle Huo turned on the oil lamp and took a look. He was immediately shocked, "This is..."

"The title deed, the title deed of the two old houses of the Guo family."

"You go out all day for this?"

Huo Yunzhou nodded, and sat on the other side of the kang to take off his shoes, "Their family moved three times, I searched all the way there, and only found it by mistake once."

Mr. Huo held the land deed in his hands and looked troubled, "Then do you want to give this land deed to the two girls next door, or do you have other ideas?"

Huo Yunzhou looked at him and smiled, "What does Grandpa think I want to do?"

Uncle Huo frowned, he was in trouble because he couldn't understand.

Huo Yunzhou sat cross-legged on the kang, picked up a small teapot and poured himself a cup of hot tea, took a sip, "Huh? Is this the tea they made?"

The topic changed suddenly, and Uncle Huo couldn't react, "...Really, what's the matter, this tea is not good?"

Huo Yunzhou took another sip, "It's a bit lucky for these two girls to come across such good tea."

"I think so too. As for the dendrobium, we have lived here for many years and have never seen that it is a precious medicinal material. This wild tea, Qing girl said it is called Guapian. It is a rare and good variety. She also said that during the Qingming Festival I can pick a lot of them before and after, speculate them and sell them, and earn dozens of taels of silver at least. This girl has a pair of hands that can turn stone into gold."

The little girl's bright watery eyes appeared before Huo Yunzhou's eyes, and as soon as the eyeballs rolled around, there were countless ideas.

He thought for a moment and said: "Tomorrow, ask Huolin to take this land deed and give it to the two people next door, and say that our family will join her business with the land deed. This way no one will say that our family is taking advantage. In addition, called Huo Linduo followed him. He had a kind-hearted nature, was not good at studying, and was timid. He was neither suitable for joining the army nor studying for fame, so he was asked to do business with the Shen sisters."

"What they do is just a small business, so it won't be a big deal, right?" Mr. Huo actually looked down on the Shen sisters' petty quarrels, but he didn't show it.

Speaking of which, apart from Huo Lin's ignorance, even Huo Yunzhou looked down on him.

Since ancient times, people have thought that copper money smells bad, and they think businessmen are profit-seeking and vulgar. However, they cannot do without money. On the one hand, they look down on it, but on the other hand, they want to be greedy. It is really a contradiction.

"It's hard to say, let Huo Lin try it together first, I will go back to the border gate tomorrow, if there is nothing wrong with the border gate, I will go back at the Dragon Boat Festival, and if there is something to do, I will go back at the Mid-Autumn Festival."

Old Man Huo nodded, "Just take care of yourself. You don't have to worry about me. Yun'er, will you see Chun Niang when you go to Guo's house?" He was really curious, and it was because the old man's life was too boring and he wanted to find some news. .

"No!" Huo Yunzhou shook his head, not wanting to mention it again, so he got up and went to sleep next door.

Xiao Shen's house is also a mess tonight.

There are four little girls sleeping on a kang, which is not crowded at first, so it can make do with it.

But who would have thought that Erya was a bed-roller. She was sleeping on the easternmost side of the kang, and Shen Qing was sleeping next to her. In the middle of the night, she was so pressed that she couldn't breathe. She stretched out her hand to touch her chest, and she actually felt a pair of feet. .

Erya put her legs on her body, and she couldn't push her, so she pinched her hard.

Unexpectedly, Erya was sleeping like a dead pig, unable to wake up at all.

But Shen Hui woke up, under the moonlight, saw her sister was being pressed by Erya, so she sat up and pulled her out, "Qing'er, you sleep here with me, let's change."

"Forget it, you're a light sleeper, just push Erya to the side."

Daya, who was sleeping in the farthest corner, muttered dullly: "That's how good she is when she sleeps. She can't wake up even if she's beaten by thunder, and she's still crowded. It's useless even if you tie her up." So she hid in the innermost corner.

Shen Hui still insisted on changing places with her sister, fearing that she would not sleep well.

Da Ya was impatient to hear the two of them tugging, so she got up with a pillow and jumped off the kang, "I'll sleep with her, you two go over there."

She squeezed in until Erya and Shen Qing were satisfied, and as soon as they lay down, Erya stretched out her legs.

Da Ya skillfully turned Er Ya over so that she was lying on her stomach, and then put his legs on her butt, "Okay, let's all sleep!"

The corner of Shen Qing's mouth twitched, as expected, one thing dropped the other.

Early the next morning, before dawn, Shen Hui got up to light a fire and make breakfast.

Because Shen Qing and the others were going to town early in the morning, they had to make dry food.

She then made pancakes. The dough was fermented last night. It was placed in a large pot, and the residual heat of the stove could be used to promote fermentation.

In the morning, she opened the basin to see that the dough had risen to a high level, and when she turned it up, the inside was honeycomb-shaped, which meant it had risen well.

She started making stuffing again.

The cured vegetables given by Uncle Cao had already been eaten, so Shen Qing bought some pickled vegetables from Fan's family.

Even if it is brought to the town, it cannot be sold, so the price is cheap and it can be eaten. Shen Hui likes to use it for cooking.

Wash the pickled vegetables, chop them into pieces, add the same chopped dried chili peppers, and pickle the wild boar meat. Chop the fat and thin pieces into pieces, mix them together, add them to the pot and stir-fry them with vegetable oil, and the aroma will be released. When it comes up, the mouths of those who smell it will be filled with saliva.

cough cough!It means that the halazi is excessively secreted, and it has to be sucked twice, otherwise it will fall out.

No, Erya can smell it in her sleep, and she wakes up immediately after closing her eyes and sniffing hard twice.

Pushing open the window, she said loudly towards the kitchen, "Sister Hui, what delicious food do you cook?"

Da Ya scolded her in the yard, "Look at the gum in the corner of your eye, it's so dirty, why don't you hurry up and wash your face and comb your hair, do you want to go to town?"

"Come on, come on!" Erya put down the window and turned around to see Shen Qing sleeping in, "Miss Third Sister, why are you lazier than me?"

Shen Qing put his hands behind his head and gave her a faint look in his eyes, "I'm thinking about something."

Erya was combing her hair and asked, "What are you thinking about? You already make money, what else do you want to think about?"

"Children, don't ask so much."

Shen Hui mixed the fillings and was ready to paste the pancakes, so the eldest girl came in to light the fire, looking into the pot, "You two eat so well every day?"

Shen Hui smiled and said: "How can you? You are going to the town. You have to walk such a long way. The things sold on the street are expensive. Why not bring more food for the road? Wouldn't it be cheaper?"

Da Ya: "That's pretty much it." She added some branches to the stove and remembered something, "Xiao Hui, did my mother mention that Wu Laohan to you?"
