A man travels through time and becomes a widow, only wanting to pursue a career

The setting sun.

The cool breeze blew away the remaining heat of the day.

The courtyard of Chen Changsheng's house was very lively.

Li Zheng and all the masters who built the brick kiln were already seated. Chen Changsheng and several children finished the last dish of pork rib soup on each table, and each found an empty seat and sat down.

When everyone was gathered, the foreman coughed and spoke first. He said cheerfully, "Aunt Chen has prepared such a table of delicious food for us all. I would like to thank Aunt Chen on behalf of all the brothers. Thank you for your work."

Chen Changsheng smiled and said politely, "I would also like to thank all the masters for working hard for so many days. If it weren't for you, I really wouldn't be able to build this brick kiln. Next, I would have to trouble the masters to teach us how to bake bricks. "

After some pleasantries, everyone moved their chopsticks.

Everyone first picked up a fried locust and smacked their lips after savoring it.

I don’t know who among them said, “Today’s food is so good, it would be a pity not to drink some wine.”

Another person said, "We have to rush back to the city after dinner, and you are the only one who wants to drink."

"Hey, I'm telling you the truth. The dishes prepared by Aunt Chen are so good, especially the fried locusts. They go perfectly with a glass of wine."

The foreman got up and took down a clay pot from the oxcart and said, "I knew you guys wanted to drink. Fortunately, I prepared it early. I won't drink too much today, just one bowl per person."

Because the alcohol content was low, everyone present except Sanshou and Sixi, who were too young, didn't drink it, and everyone else took a bowl.

Chen Changsheng took a sip and felt a sour taste going straight into his throat.

This liquor is less than one-tenth of modern liquor.

When she has free time, she will think about how to make wine, and there will be a way to make money.

After drinking, everyone who was still a little restrained relaxed a little and chatted while eating the food.

"Dafu Niang, how do you make this fried locust dish? How do you make locusts so delicious?"

In Li Zheng's mind, the locusts were sent by the Locust God to punish them, so how could they eat them?

When Chen Changsheng heard that there were locusts in the fields, he was extremely anxious, but he didn't have any rules on what to do.

Now that I know that locusts can not only be eaten, but can also be made so delicious, I might as well catch the locusts and eat them so that everyone in the village can get rid of the insects and fill their stomachs.

Chen Changsheng picked up a locust and said, "Uncle Li Zheng, this locust is not only edible, but also rich in protein. However, my method consumes a lot of oil. There is a simple way to bake it directly..."

"What is high protein?" Li Zheng asked confused.

He didn't cook, but he thought it was the woman who was cooking.

"Well, it's just that eating it is good for your health and helps. How about this? Let's go to the fields after noon tomorrow and I'll show the villagers how to make it."

In this era, everyone thinks that locusts are inedible, and their color changes when they hear them.

"The relationship is great! Do you want those guys who are preparing to cook?"

Chen Changsheng shook his head and said, "No need, I will prepare the things myself."

She took a sip of the sour wine and continued, "Uncle Li Zheng, my brick kiln factory will officially start construction soon. The workers have been recruited and some management regulations have been drawn up. I would like to ask Uncle Li Zheng for help. Come on, write these regulations on paper to make them more formal. I have paper and pen ready."

Chen Changsheng can also write, but he just doesn't have a writing brush, so his writing is crooked and hard to read.

If such ugly words were posted in the kiln, it would be a disgrace to the head of the factory.

Li Zheng said, "First tell me what the regulations are, and I will see if I can handle it."

Although he could also read and write, he was writing the charter for the brick kiln factory after all, and he was afraid of messing up such an important matter.

The most important thing is that if you can't write any word, you will lose face.

Chen Changsheng explained the management regulations to him in detail, and Chen Lizheng kept nodding in praise while listening.

After listening to everything, Li Zheng frowned slightly, and said in a low voice with some embarrassment, "Dafu Niang, these methods of yours are really good. I also want to help, but I am afraid that I am powerless. There are some words here that I really don't know." Write."

Chen Changsheng smiled lightly and said nothing happened. She could go to the city to find a gentleman to help her write the book someday.

This meal was eaten until dark, and the guests and hosts enjoyed it to the fullest.

All the masters had eaten and drank enough, and drove the bullock cart slowly back to the city with glowing faces.

The five people left at home, Chen Changsheng, mother and son, were cleaning up the mess. The vegetable basins were all eaten, and the wine was drunk. There was not much food wasted. All they had to do was wash the dishes, put away the tables and chairs, and sweep the yard. That was done.

Sanshou and Sixi were responsible for the washing work. One did the first washing and the other filtered. The two of them cooperated in washing while exchanging their recent learning experiences.

When Chen Sanshou encountered an unfamiliar word, Sixi dipped it in water and showed it to him.

Chen Changsheng frowned slightly at the scene in front of him. He couldn't practice calligraphy with water all the time. He didn't have the feeling of writing, so he had to use paper and pen.

But of course she wouldn't spend more than ten taels of silver to buy these things from a bookstore. The pens, inks, paper and inkstones in the Bracelet Mall are not only diverse, but also cheap.

Besides, children are not required to use advanced pen and ink at this stage, as long as they can write.

She opened the bracelets and prepared to buy them first, and then take them out to the children when she found a suitable time.

Chen Changsheng chose a shop that sold the Four Treasures of the Study. Buy two for beginners' brushes and get three free. For this price, you also need a bicycle. Add it to the shopping cart.

Ink sticks, buy two and get an inkstone for free, add to shopping cart.

Paper was even cheaper. What Chen Changsheng bought was not high-quality paper, but thickened practice paper for calligraphy brushes. One hundred sheets cost only nine cents. She proudly added two hundred sheets of paper to her shopping cart.

Submit your order and pay in one go.

All added up, no more than six hundred calories.

Now Chen Changsheng doesn't feel so distressed about paying for this small amount of calories, because this little monkey named Lao San can give her a thousand calories a day.

Chen Sanshou was squatting on the floor washing dishes. For some reason, he felt that his mother's eyes suddenly became very gentle, urgent and longing when she looked at him.

Chen Sanshou: [How is mom doing today? Not only did he make fried locusts for me to eat, but he also looked at me lovingly. Do you think my washing speed is too slow? 】

The movements of his hands speeded up unconsciously. Before Si Xi's first wash was finished, San Shou snatched him over, "Sixi, you're too slow, it's almost getting dark. Just let me go." , I will do the rest.”

Chen Sixi looked at the third brother in bewilderment as he quickly moved his left and right hands, and couldn't help but curse in her heart as to why her third brother was rushing to work today.

After cleaning everything inside and outside the house, Chen Changsheng lit a pine oil candle in the house and lit a coil of mosquito coils to start tonight's class.
