Chapter 8: Tenant and fish head with chopped pepper

Back home, Chang Hao couldn't stand the sleepiness after a tired day. In the hall, Grandpa Chang was weaving the mats and Chang Le was making up the clothes. The two were busy waiting for Yu Qingze.

Seeing him coming back, Chang Le made a gesture and asked him if he wanted to take a bath now, and he helped him bring the water to the bath room. Grandpa Chang translated it.

Yu Qingze shook his head, called Grandpa Chang and Chang Le to sit down at the table, and then solemnly discussed with them: "Grandpa, Brother Le, I just came here for the first time, thank you for your help and thank you. I’m really grateful for taking care of me. As you know, I have no relatives here and have nowhere to go yet, so I want to discuss with you, no, it’s a request. I want to ask you one thing."

The grandfather and grandson looked at each other, and both saw seriousness in Yu Qingze's eyes.

Grandpa Chang said, "You said."

Yu Qingze said to the two people seriously: "I want to live at home for a period of time. I will pay the rent on a monthly basis. I will move out when I have more money and find a suitable place."

Unexpectedly, Yu Qingze was talking about this.

Grandpa Chang waved his hand and said, "You live in it, it's just a bed. If the rent is not rent, you don't need it."

Chang Le also nodded.

Yu Qingze naturally refused to live in vain. He reluctantly said: "Grandpa, Brother Le, if you are like this, I dare not live at home."

Grandpa Chang glared, "What dare you? Didn't you teach Xiaole and Xiaohao to write? Didn't you also say that you want to teach Xiaohao to learn kung fu? Just treat it as Shuxiu. Speaking of which, we are taking advantage."

Yu Qingze laughed, "If you say so, Brother Le saved my life, grandpa."

"That's not the same thing, you can't talk together."

Yu Qingze was very persistent, and Grandpa Chang's attitude was even tougher.

The two sides went back and forth for several rounds, to no avail.

Chang Le watched the two of them arguing, pursing his lips and laughing.

Seeing the old man, Yu Qingze can only say: "Grandpa, I'm serious, I can't live for nothing, I hope you can understand."

Grandpa Chang looked at him for a long time, then sighed and said, "It's fine, just give it if you like."

Yu Qingze smiled and said, "I don't know the rent here. Look, is one or two silver a month enough?"

Both the grandfather and grandson were surprised by his mastery.

Grandpa Chang said dryly: "Our family doesn't have the conditions of an inn."

Yu Qingze said, "I counted the food."

Grandpa Chang waved his hand, "Those things on the spot are not worth a lot of money. Everyone grows them and sells them on the street, but they can't sell them."

Yu Qingze didn't hear it, and said, "That's it, one or two silver a month. I will pay for three months first."

Yu Qingze took out the cloth bag and didn't know how many pieces of silver were. He simply took three coins of copper and handed it to Grandpa Chang, "Grandpa, here you are."

Grandpa Chang reluctantly took it, and then handed it to Chang Le.

Yu Qingze noticed that Chang Le was the one in charge of the money at home. So he said to Chang Le again: "Brother Le, can you ask you to keep the money for me? I don’t have a place to put it. The double grab is over in a few days. I will take it back again. I want to go to the city to make it Some small businesses."

Chang Le is a little embarrassed, so much money, in case you lose it...

Chang Le looked at Grandpa Chang, Grandpa Chang nodded, and said, "Help him keep it."

Chang Le took the cloth bag and entered the room cautiously.

Grandpa Chang looked at Yu Qingze and asked, "Do you want to do business in the city?"

Yu Qingze nodded: "I want to get some snacks to sell. I have to find a livelihood."

Grandpa Chang frowned and said, "Didn't you lose your household registration certificate? It's necessary to do business in the city."

Yu Qingze said ‘ah’ and said, "I have forgotten about this. Grandpa, if I want to put my household registration here, what do I need to do?"

Grandpa Chang frowned and thought for a while, and said, "There seems to be a special department in the yamen that takes care of this. You can ask the village chief, he should know."

"Okay, let me ask."

"Do you want to be naturalized with us? Niutou Village?"

"Yes, it's great here, if I can, I want to get in here."

"Have a foresight! The dozens of households in our village also saw this place very well back then, so I decided here. As soon as it flickered, more than a dozen years passed." Grandpa Chang couldn't help feeling a little when he thought of the past.

Yu Qingze asked curiously: "I heard that you moved here during the war?"

Grandpa Chang nodded his head, and took a sip of dry smoke, his eyes were a little far away, "We were originally in Qingzhou on the north bank of the Qinghe River. The war there was so badly damaged. Everyone couldn't make it. I heard that the war in the south was not so serious, so I tried to cross the river together. Here it is."

The Great Prosperity dynasty ended the wars of the previous dynasty before the founding of the country. Yu Qingze had heard of this just fifteen years after the founding of the country.

"Yes, the people who suffer the most from the war are the people." Yu Qingze had never experienced it, so he could only sigh with emotion.

Grandpa Chang spit out eye circles, then sighed, and said distressedly: "Xiao Le's injury was caused at that time, alas..."

Yu Qingze wanted to ask what was going on, but when he saw Chang Le coming out, he stopped in time, then went back to the room and took out a change of clothes, and said to Chang Le, "Brother Le, could you please mention it to me? Water."

Chang Le nodded with a smile.

The next morning, Yu Qingze saw Chang Le picking up a large dung bucket of beans, and asked him at breakfast.

Chang Le said with some worry that the ground grew too much, and he hadn't had time to sell it recently, so he picked it up and dried it, otherwise it would all be old.

Yu Qingze asked them how to eat most of the beans here, and when they learned that they would usually be cooked and eaten, and then they could not be sold until they were eaten, so they were dried into dried beans.

The beans in the dung pan are all fresh and tender. Yu Qingze thought for a while and asked, "Brother Le, is there an empty jar at home? The one with the edge."

Chang Le nodded, looked at him curiously, and asked him what he was going to do.

Yu Qingze said: "Pickled tamarind beans."

"Caper beans?" Chang Hao asked curiously, "Is it delicious?"

Yu Qingze nodded and said, "It's very appetizing, it's suitable for summer and winter."

"Is it better than dried snap beans?" Chang Hao is a little disgusted when he often eats dried snap beans in winter.

Yu Qingze smiled and said, "I will pickle some for a different taste. If you find it delicious, we can also pickle it in a jar and eat it in winter."

Hearing that it was delicious, Chang Hao was happy, and raised his hands in agreement: "Pickled!"

Brother Yu said it was delicious, it must be super delicious! He now has a blind worship of Yu Qingze, especially in eating.

So after breakfast, the three of Changle and their grandparents went to plant in the fields, and Yu Qingze made capers at home.

Wash the jars and let them dry naturally, then select the fresh and tender beans, remove the heads and tails, wash them with dry water, and boil a small pot of boiling water to let cool.

After all the preparations are completed, pour the small half jar of cold boiled water directly into the jar, put the beans into the jar, and submerge all of them in the water, add a little more salt, and you're done.

Yu Qingze thought for a while, then put a few green peppers in. In fact, if there are radishes, sour radishes are also delicious, but now it is summer, and Le and the others do not grow summer radishes, but they can pick some bitter gourds and soak them.

Finally, close the lid, pour water on the edge of the jar to prevent air from entering, and place it in a cool place. You can eat it in two or three days.

Now that the capers have been made, Yu Qingze made a simple version of the pickled cucumbers from those cucumbers.

At noon, Grandpa Chang said that he cooked the fish that the village chief sent yesterday. Yu Qingze remembered the first meal he had here, the taste of the fish...

"Let them enjoy the delicacy of real fish." Yu Qingze said to himself.

There is no **** at home, only rice wine can remove the fishy, ​​and some vinegar can also remove the fishy, ​​but it is not enough. Yu Qingze was worried, and suddenly remembered that he had seen a small piece of perilla on the roadside of the village. His eyes lit up and he planned to go out and pick some back instead of **** to get rid of the smell.

While picking it, I ran into the village chief.

"Aze, what do you pick this for?" The village head was curious. The smell of perilla is rather strange, and people in the village regard it as weeds, and cows don't like it very much, but sometimes doctors use it as medicine.

Yu Qingze replied: "There is no **** at home, I will pick it back and make the ingredients. Village chief, you are looking for me, did you think about it?"

"Yes. We discussed it yesterday, and we will do as you said." The village chief and Dajian Dayong continued to discuss until the early morning, and finally made a decision.

One thing happened during this period. The village chief found that his family was missing thirty taels of silver, and he hurriedly looked for them, thinking that the family had been robbed. Later learned that they had bought a plank with money, and they had been making trouble for a while. The village chief and the three men spent a lot of talk before finally persuading him. It's also a lot of toss.

Yu Qingze happily said, "I knew you would agree."

The village chief smiled, and then asked, "But, Aze, I just want to discuss with you, can you start working on the threshing machine and the Fenggu car later?"

Yu Qingze thought for a while, and probably knew what the village chief and others thought was nothing more than trying to make rice beds before the autumn harvest. He asked: "How many people do carpentry work in your family?"

The village chief replied: "I, Dajian and Dayong are all skilled hands. My third son can only fight, and my husband can do some better."

Yu Qingze pretended to think hard for a long time, and then said, "That's it, that's okay. The threshing machine and windmill will wait until the autumn harvest before starting. After the autumn harvest, you will arrange for someone to work with me to study the production. Guji and Fengguche, other people will make other simple products."

What Yu Qingze pursues is long-term cooperation. First, let the village chief and them see the sweetness, and the cooperation will be smoother in the future. Projects can be done one by one, and no one knows those things in his mind anyway.

Besides, he also wanted to ask the village chief to help him fix the household registration.

When the village chief heard this, he immediately smiled and said, "This arrangement is very good."

The two agreed to go to the village chief's house in the evening to discuss the terms of the cooperation contract.

After returning home and estimating the time, Yu Qingze cooked the rice first, set the fire, and then began to process the fish.

The village chief sent a silver carp, which was quite big, weighing more than two catties and nearly three catties.

Using perilla instead of ginger, Yu Qingze made a chopped pepper fish head according to the taste of Changle's family. He marinated the rest of the fish and put it in a bowl to make braised fish at night. Make another loofah and egg soup with a green vegetable, which is also a very hearty lunch.

The food was ready, and Chang's grandfather and Sun Sa also returned.

As soon as Chang Hao entered the courtyard, he smelled the scent in the air. He rushed into the house and asked excitedly: "Brother Yu, you are ready to eat again!"

Chang Le also brightened his eyes, and another new dish! Still fish!

It's a pity that I didn't see how to do it. It's a little regrettable.

The greatest happiness of eating goods is to meet a good cook!

And the greatest happiness of a culinary scum who aspires to be a good cook is undoubtedly meeting a good master!

The author has something to say: Yu Qingze: The silver is handed over to the husband, there is nothing wrong with it!

By the way, I forgot to say, the time in the text is calculated according to the lunar calendar. The current timeline is the rice harvesting season in late June of the lunar calendar.
