Leisurely Farmer's Family: A Strong Man and His Broken Leg Son-in-law

Liu Meixiang put the white and tender skirt into the dustpan and said softly: "Well...!"

The winter bamboo shoots are crisp, tender and sweet. The lunch meal is braised bamboo shoots in oil. It is rare for Liu Meixiang to come back. It is the first time for Xiaoxue to live in the old house. Nian feels sorry for her granddaughter and great-granddaughter.

Then I steamed a meat dish with bamboo shoots and braised pork.

The staple food is the big white and fat steamed buns left over from the wedding banquet. Each person also adds a bowl of shredded bamboo shoots and egg soup, which is very delicious.

After having enough food and rice, everyone moved small bamboo stools and drank soup in the yard in the sun. They saw Liu Shan walking from the west carrying a basket full of bamboo shoots.

Liu Yu couldn't help but be surprised: "Third brother, when did you go to the bamboo forest to dig bamboo shoots!"

"Sister-in-law went back and said that you would go to the town later to sell bamboo shoots, so I hurriedly took the things into the bamboo forest and dug so much in a hurry. Fortunately, you haven't left yet!"

Liu Shan panted, his face flushed from exhaustion.

"It's already half afternoon when you arrive in town. There's still no one on the street. Let's go there tomorrow morning!" Mr. Nian frowned and looked at the two grandsons who said that wind is like rain.

"Grandma, aren't these fresh bamboo shoots waiting for you? The taste will be worse by tomorrow!"

Of course Liu Yu knew that everyone in the town would be scattered at this moment, but there were not only villagers going to the market in the town, but also merchants. Their families had to eat.

When the time comes, go to the alley behind the shop and hawk it. Women and husbands in need will hear it and come out to buy it.

After listening to Liu Yu's words, Nian waved his hand and stopped making any decisions.

Liu Shan dumped all the bamboo shoots in his basket on the ground and asked everyone to help him peel them quickly. Don't peel off all the shells when peeling. Some people bought them and didn't finish them in one day.

The remaining bamboo shoots were peeled off, which was disliked by these customers.

There is strength in numbers, and the peeling is quick.

When Nian heard that Liushan hadn't eaten lunch yet, he hurriedly heated up a steamed bun. Since the food was gone, he fished out a few pickled chili peppers, picked them up and handed them to Liushan.

Because he was in a hurry, Liu Shan did not delay, put the processed winter bamboo shoots back into the basket, took the steamed buns, and went to town with Liu Yu.

The two of them hurried to the town. On the way, they agreed to try their luck at restaurants in the town.

It was already the end of the market at this time, and the grass market had already dispersed. The two of them did not delay in closing the stalls, and walked through the grass market and went straight to the back alleys of the shops in the town.

The two of them moved separately and went to the back door of the restaurant. The wooden doors in the backyards of each house were all open. The restaurant had a special purchasing manager. They heard that they were newly dug winter bamboo shoots today, but they were also very interested.

I peeled off the remaining bamboo shoot shells and saw that the bamboo shoots were indeed clear in color. I broke them off hard and the fracture was smooth and crispy. I was very satisfied.

"How can we sell these bamboo shoots? We can't consume so much in one day!"

The fat man in his forties took a look at the bamboo shoots in the basket on Liu Yu's back, made a silent assessment, and said.

"Three cents per pound, winter bamboo shoots are hard to dig and there are so few. The family got up early in the morning and dug until noon to get so much."

Liuyu is not lying. The fresh and tender winter bamboo shoots are all in the soil. Whether to dig them or not depends on luck. Compared with the spring bamboo shoots, the number of winter bamboo shoots is indeed much smaller.

If their village had not been short of bamboo forests, it would have taken a lot of effort to gather such a large basket of winter bamboo shoots.

The manager of the restaurant was pampered and knew little about these things, so he habitually counter-offered, and finally bought twenty catties for fifty cents at the price of five cents.

Liu Yu took the money and put it carefully in her purse. Before leaving, Liu Yu told the fat uncle that he would be selling bamboo shoots in the next episode and asked the uncle if he wanted some!

"This husband can come back and have a look the next day. If the sales are good, you can buy more. If they can't be sold, I'm afraid it will delay your time!"

After getting married, the hair can be combed into a bun. Liu Yu's hair is combed high and tied up with a wooden hairpin.

His eyebrows are bright and his facial features are extremely handsome. His hair is tied up, which reveals his face. Coupled with the red lotus mark on his forehead, there is another kind of heroic spirit between his eyebrows and eyes.

The fat uncle praised it in his heart, but felt a little pity. If such a face were born on a man, it would be really outstanding.

It just so happens that this guy's face is somewhat cold and hard, and he has lost his tenderness and delicacy.

Liu Yu didn't know that the fat uncle in front of him was criticizing and pitying her, so he thanked this first guest.

Liu Yu carried a basket on her back and continued to hawk inside. Some women and husbands heard the shouting and went out to look.

Seeing that the bamboo shoots were really fresh and tender, I bought a few kilograms for five cents.

We walked two or three back alleys in this direction before everything was sold out.

Liu Yu breathed a sigh of relief. Although it wouldn't be a waste to take them home and blanch them in the sun if they couldn't be sold out, it would be best if they could all be sold out.

Carrying the money bag, Liu Yu returned to the intersection with Liu Shan.

After waiting for about a quarter of an hour, Liu Shan also came over carrying an empty backpack.

As soon as the two of them met, Liu Yu saw the grocery store not far away. Thinking of Xiaoxue at home, she went to buy some snacks that the little girl loved. Besides, Li Dongsheng gave a bamboo rat as a gift, so he couldn't take it for free. I'll buy something as a return gift.

Most children like sweets. Liu Yu bought a bag of malt candies. Li Dongsheng’s grandma was not in good health. Liu Yu also picked a bag of brown sugar. She also had dates at home, so she would wrap some in a bag.

Brown sugar and red dates are both good for replenishing blood, so it’s not rude.

Liu Shan had money in his pocket, but he couldn't bear to spend any of it.

At this time, another customer came into the store. Liu Yu put things into the basket, counted the money, and hurriedly handed it to the boss who was greeting the customers. When he walked out the door, he realized that Liu Shan had not followed him.

I was staring blankly at the two new customers who came into the store. I couldn't help but take a look and saw that they were a young man and woman.

The man was tall and burly, while the girl was thin. Both of them had faint smiles on their faces, and they seemed to have a good relationship.

From the tone of their conversation with the boss, it sounded like they were about to buy caramel, red dates, peanuts, longans and other auspicious dried fruits for the wedding.

"Third brother, what are you doing!" Liu Yu was amused. This guy couldn't walk when he saw an unmarried couple.

Sure enough, she wanted to get married. Looking at the smile on the young girl's face and thinking of the longevity waiting at home, Liu Yu couldn't help but smile.

It feels good to get married to the person you like.

Seeing Liu Shan come out with a complicated expression, Liu Yu couldn't help but make a joke.

After walking out of the town, Liu Shan breathed a long sigh of relief and said, "The man in the grocery store just now is Xie Weihu from Gouziling!"

Xie Weihu?

Who is that!

Liu Yu's mind didn't turn around for a while, but when he saw the third brother frowning slightly, he remembered who this person was!

"Oh! Brother Xian's ex-fiancé!"

Liu Yu glanced at Liu Shan, who was a little depressed, and was a little confused: "Isn't this good? It seems that he is getting married soon!"

Liu Shan looked at Liu Yu with a dull expression in depression, touched the money he had just spent selling winter bamboo shoots, and said angrily: "I don't think I'm good enough for Brother Xian, that Xie Weihu is much stronger than me!"
