There is a Wangfu wife at home

Chapter 144 Salted Duck Eggs Together (Part [-])

This Mrs. Luo Sun just sat idle after eating, didn't she know how to move her fingers, give full play to her strengths, and reduce the burden on the family?
If you make money, it's also your own.

The son is worthless, and it will take at least ten years for the grandson to make money and be filial. Why don't you hurry up and earn some money now while your body is strong?
When she is old and immobile, is she going to drink the northwest wind?

But if you reasoned with Luo Sun, you probably wouldn't listen to it, so Li Jiaoniang decided to put it another way.

"Selling such expensive shoes, who wants them?" Luo Sun curled her lips.

"How come no one wants it? I think the business in that shop is very good, and many people are rushing to buy it." Li Jiaoniang said, "There are a lot of people who don't know how to make shoes, and there are a lot of people who don't have time to make shoes. They want shoes to wear, why don’t they just buy them? Those who can make shoes use their skills to make money.”

Luo Sun snorted softly, "Aren't you going to cook the paste? Why are you talking about selling shoes again? What does it have to do with me if they sell theirs?"

"Have you ever thought about it, in case the sixth uncle can't make any money, Chunbao is young, and the sixth aunt can't make any money, Chunya will be tightly controlled by her in-law's family in the future, and she won't be allowed to go back to her mother's house to help often, Ninth wife, have you thought about what to do then?" Li Jiaoniang was persuasive.

"What are you talking about? What do you mean that Chunbao's father can't make money? He's been smart since he was a child, so it's impossible that he can't make money." Luo Sun snorted coldly.

Li Jiaoniang said, "I'm not making an analogy."

Luo Sun's face immediately stretched, "Is there any analogy from you? You should say, after Chun Bao's father made a lot of money, how should we spend the money? Should we buy a house in the county town? It’s better to eat chicken, but it’s better to eat meat every once in a while. After buying a house in the county seat, it’s too far to go home and farm. Do you want to buy another donkey to ride?”

Li Jiaoniang blinked: "..." Empty painting big cake?
"Hurry up and light the fire, do you want to cook the paste?" Luo Sun ignored Li Jiaoniang and walked into the kitchen.

Li Jiaoniang is speechless, yes, you always love to dream, so let's dream, there will always be regrets.

Although Luo Sun's mouth is broken, she is not sloppy in guiding Li Jiaoniang to make shoes.

She kept scolding Li Jiaoniang, what did she do wrong, and what should she do.

Li Jiaoniang knew what was wrong with her, so she didn't talk back and let her talk.

The words are harsh, but the experience says a lot.

Some of Luo Cheng's old clothes at home were taken out by Li Jiaoniang, and they were dismantled into pieces to make the middle layer of fabric for shoes.

The fabric on the outside of the shoes was newly bought by her.

When the paste became warm, Li Jiaoniang, under the guidance of Mrs. Luo Sun, paste the old cloths with paste and spread them on a board to dry.

"Okay, I'll go to bed. When the cloth hardens, you can take it off and cut it according to the shoe shape." Mrs. Luo Sun yawned and walked back to the shade of the tree outside the front yard. Dozed off.

Li Jiaoniang shrugged, Luo Sun is hopeless!

Forget it, take your time.

Li Jiaoniang put Luo Sunshi aside, and then went about her own business.

Just now, she has already made one slipper for Luo Cheng, and now she is making the second one.

Slippers are cloth slippers, which are convenient for him to wear after taking a bath.

The sole is not thick, the style is simple, and it is quick to make.

And the hard-soled shoes made of these old fabrics to dry are used by Luo Cheng for work, and they have to be made stronger, so they have to be starched.

Li Jiaoniang's movements were not skillful, even a little clumsy, but she was very serious.

Luo Cheng came back from the field, walked behind her and looked at her for a long time before she realized it.

"How so? Look at my craftsmanship." Li Jiaoniang held up a finished slipper for Luo Cheng to see.

The stitching is a bit crooked, but overall, it's a shoe.

Luo Cheng nodded, "Okay." He took it in his hand, and took it to his feet for a test, but he didn't try it on, because his feet were covered with mud, and he was afraid that the new shoes would be dirty, "Size Same, good."

"These are the loafers I wear at home after taking a bath. In addition, I also need to make a pair of shoes for going out. Those pairs are more difficult, and they need to fit the soles, which will be very slow." Li Jiaoniang said with a smile.

"Do it for yourself, don't always think about me." Luo Cheng frowned and said, "It's summer now, and I have straw sandals to wear, so I'm not in a hurry to wear cloth shoes."

"I'm happy." Li Jiaoniang snatched the shoes from him, "Okay, okay, go do your work, I'll continue making shoes."

Seeing that there was nothing he could do to help, Luo Cheng walked away to do his own thing.

In the corner of the yard, there are a lot of chopped miscellaneous tree poles piled up, and they also need to be turned over to dry. After these are dried, they are picked and sold in the village market, which is another sum of money.

Luo Cheng untied the bundles of firewood and spread them out in a corner to dry.

These days are full of sun, and it will dry after a few days in the sun.

Li Jiaoniang made the second slipper. After looking at it for a while, she boasted, "Perfect!"

Hearing her boasting, Luo Cheng couldn't help twitching the corners of his mouth.

Chun Ya happened to come to the back door and said in surprise, "Oh, sister Jiao Niang, you can make shoes."

"How is it? Does it look good?" Li Jiaoniang asked humbly.

Chunya: "..." It's not pretty, but she was too embarrassed to hit Li Jiaoniang, so she nodded and said, "It's pretty."

"Really? Hehe, this is the first pair of shoes I made in my life. Although it's not for sale, but I really put my heart into it?" Li Jiaoniang put away the shoes, stood up and stretched her arms, "I'm going Pickled salted duck eggs. Chunya, do you want to watch my pickled eggs?"

Chun Ya waved her hand, "No, Sister Jiao Niang, I want to go fishing for shrimps, and tomorrow is a small market, I'll see if I can catch some, and sell them at the market tomorrow morning."

So soon, it's a small market again?

But Li Jiaoniang didn't have time to go fishing for shrimps, so she said, "I'm going to pickle salted eggs, Chunya, go by yourself."

But she thought in her heart that at such a young age, Chunya knew how to make money to support her family, and Luo Sunshi was an adult, but she didn't worry about it at all.

Thinking about it, like a mother, like a son, Luo Fucai is also a person who doesn't worry about it.

"Okay." Chun Ya nodded.

She already knows how to catch snakes, and she is not afraid to catch shrimps alone.

Chun Ya picked up the small bucket, the small shovel for digging up earthworms, and a ball of twine, and walked towards the ditch.

One of them was contracted and rented by Li Jiaoniang, Chun Ya was embarrassed to go, but went further away.

After Li Jiaoniang put the finished slippers into the bedroom, she rolled up her sleeves and went to the backyard.

She took out one of the pickle jars, wiped off the dust, and put it in the sun to sterilize.

Then, she found the twenty or so wild duck eggs, scrubbed them clean one by one, dried them in a ventilated place, and then wiped some wine on the surface.

Then, Li Jiaoniang found an old clay pot, took out some plant ash, poured in some water, sprinkled a handful of salt in it, and stirred it up.

Luo Cheng, who was busy in the yard, guessed that she was going to pickle duck eggs, so he came out.

"It's dirty, let me do it." How to wrap duck eggs, he saw other people do it.

It's not a difficult thing, he'll figure it out after a while.

"You go about your business, I'll do it." Li Jiaoniang waved at him.

Luo Cheng pushed her aside, "Sit down and direct me, I will do it."

He rolled up his sleeves and squatted down.

Li Jiaoniang laughed and said, "All right, all right, you come and you come." You have great strength, so you have the final say.

Pickling duck eggs is very simple, without Li Jiaoniang's instructions, Luo Cheng quickly wrapped a duck egg.

25 duck eggs, just a moment.

Li Jiaoniang brought the sun-dried jars to Luo Cheng, "Just put them inside, and put them gently one by one."

"Okay." Luo Cheng carefully picked up the duck eggs one by one, gently put them into the jar, and closed the lid.

Under Li Jiaoniang's gesture, he carried the jar and put it in the corner of the kitchen.

.

It was noon soon, and Chunya, who went fishing for shrimp by the ditch, came back with a bucket.

Probably the harvest was not good, she walked into the courtyard gate and let out a long sigh.

Li Jiaoniang was about to scoop rice for cooking, she glanced into the courtyard, and said with a smile, "What's the matter, Chunya, why are you sighing?"

"I only caught 25 prawns, so few, not enough to sell."

"Then let's keep it, and go fishing in the afternoon." Li Jiaoniang smiled.

"Hmm." That's all.

Chun Ya carried the bucket to a shaded place in the corner of the yard, and washed her hands.

Mrs. Luo Sun walked over, looked around, and asked Li Jiaoniang, "What's for lunch?"

For the sake of teaching her how to make shoes just now, Li Jiaoniang replied, "Dried radish, fried wild duck eggs with pickled vegetables, shallot pancakes, wild vegetable porridge."

She picked up 26 wild duck eggs, marinated 25, and kept one for stir-frying.

Luo Sun immediately raised her eyebrows, "Why is it all vegetarian, not even a piece of meat."

"Uncle Six hasn't come back from looking for vegetables, and there are only these vegetables at home." Li Jiaoniang didn't want to talk anymore.

"Isn't that a wild duck?" Luo Sun pointed to the cage beside the fence wall.

In the cage, the wild duck that Li Jiaoniang had just picked up was locked.

"No, that's for sale tomorrow." Li Jiaoniang didn't want to kill the duck.

"Stingy." Luo Sun hummed and walked away.

After a while, Chun Ya's scream came, "Why are all my shrimps dead?"

　There is no third watch today, (cover your face. >_<~)
