A man travels through time and becomes a widow, only wanting to pursue a career
Chapter 53 Children also need to save face
Unexpectedly, the third child observed very carefully.
Chen Changsheng, a master of lies, started to lie, "While you and Sixi were washing vegetables in the afternoon, my mother finished drawing the picture of the keel waterwheel in the house, and then went out to walk around the pond.
You said it was a coincidence, but as soon as my mother arrived at the pond, the fish jumped out of the water, jumped to the shore, and knocked herself unconscious. My mother picked it up and made dinner. "
Chen Changsheng made up her mind. Regardless of whether the children would believe it or not, she insisted that the fish was picked up from the water's edge.
"This fish is too stupid. Since you are so stupid and were caught by my mother, then we will eat you. Anyway, you will be caught and eaten by others in the future." Sanshou ate another piece of fish. I also scooped some fish soup into my bowl to mix with the rice.
"How stupid!"
"You're so stupid, I'll pour you some soup too."
Even the eldest and second eldest brother believed Chen Changsheng's lies, and they all wanted to get rid of this stupid fish for God.
Chen Changsheng, "You're really stupid."
After dinner, when the children were at home, Chen Changsheng went to Li Zheng to continue talking about the keel waterwheel mentioned in the afternoon.
She has figured out the crafting method of the keel waterwheel, and now she can start preparing the materials, which requires wood.
There are quite a lot of trees in the hills behind Chenjiacun. Chen Changsheng figured he would have to cut down five of them first.
Li Zheng reassured her and arranged for several young people from the village to go up the mountain to cut down trees.
All that's left is to wait for the woodworking craftsman to come and communicate in person about the production methods and details.
After returning home, Chen Changsheng counted the remaining ground vegetables at home. In addition to the fifty kilograms that will be fried tomorrow, there are still more than thirty kilograms left.
The eldest and second eldest brother have to dig ditches these days and have no time to pick vegetables. Chen Changsheng plans to take the two little ones into the city tomorrow so that no one at home will pick vegetables.
You have to find someone to take care of this matter.
Chen Changsheng saw in the yard that there were still some lights in Aunt Ma's house next door. Knowing that Aunt Ma's family had not rested yet, she shouted through the fence.
Aunt Ma came out and looked at Chen Changsheng with some confusion, "Sister-in-law Chen, what's the matter?"
Chen Changsheng smiled and said, "Aren't Dafu and Erlu going to dig ditches these days? I'm going to take Sanshou and Sixi into the city tomorrow, and we don't have any manpower at home. If you want to trouble Aunt Ma, you can find someone to help pick the ground vegetables, or as per the instructions The price is more than a penny per pound.”
Aunt Ma knew that Chen Changsheng was collecting Dipi vegetables, and she also collected her own Dipi vegetables the day before yesterday. She said cheerfully, "I will be responsible for the Dipi vegetables. How much will it cost?"
"Fifty kilograms a day, of course, the more the better, I will collect them all. Auntie, you are at home, you help me collect them, and when I come back from the city, I will come and get them. This is one hundred coins, you take it first ." Chen Changsheng touched a hundred copper plates and handed them over.
Aunt Ma pushed Chen Changsheng's hand back, "Don't rush to give me money now. You can give me money after the matter is settled. My family still has a hundred copper coins."
Chen Changsheng didn't want others to advance money. He had already troubled others, so how could he have the nerve to let others advance money.
She forcefully pushed the money over again and said with a serious face, "This money must be given to you first, Auntie, and I also ask Auntie to check the vegetables that will be received tomorrow."
This sentence also hopes that Aunt Ma will not be half-hearted and pay more attention to the quality of the vegetables when collecting the vegetables. Don't let any sediment or branches get mixed in.
Aunt Ma couldn't refuse anymore, so she accepted it, which was regarded as accepting the matter.
Chen Changsheng drank two more endorphins before going to bed and gained 200 calories. His current calorie consumption totaled 1,135 calories.

"Cuckoo".
The chickens outside the house were crowing early in the morning, and the Chen family got up very early.
There was a lot of work to do today. The first thing Chen Changsheng did when he got up was to buy an egg from his bracelet and stuff it into the chicken coop.
Then he took out two packets of nutritional powder and opened them with water. Then he asked Sanshou and Sixi to take the water and feed it to the chickens, and then cut some wild vegetables to feed the chickens.
The two children thought that the hen had laid eggs again today, so they kept praising the big hen and even gave the hen extra food, including two handfuls of wild vegetables.
Chen Dafu is grinding soy milk, which is what his mother ordered after getting up. Erlu went to the old house to borrow a bucket, and then went to the mountain spring to get a bucket full of ice water.
Chen Changsheng was responsible for making breakfast. Sanshou and Sixi followed her into the city today. The two eldest sons were the only ones at home to have lunch, so let's make something simple.
She cooked a pot of brown rice and wild vegetable porridge, and added some brown flour to the bean dregs left after grinding the soy milk, and placed them on the side of the pot to make two cakes.
Finally, I cracked the eggs I bought in the morning and fried them into fragrant egg pancakes. Each of my two sons had half an egg.
The sons' lunch was prepared in advance, each consisting of pancakes and fried eggs.
After eating, Chen Dafu and Chen Erlu applied ointment again, put on labor gloves and carried tools and went out to dig ditches.
Sanshou and Sixi were responsible for carrying the tofu curd, five newly bought bowls and spoons, brown sugar, hawthorn and iceberg spring water one by one to the yard, and waited for the bullock cart to pick them up at Chen's house.
After cleaning up, the two children even put on the new clothes that Chen Changsheng bought them last time.
It's my first time to go to town today. I can't wear too shabby clothes. Children also need to save face.
Chen Changsheng has also cooked the vegetables, and now he just needs to make another salty stew.
Wash and chop the mushrooms and ground vegetables, and prepare the water starch.
Put oil in the pot, add ginger and sour, sauté until fragrant, then add chopped mushrooms and ground vegetables and stir-fry.
Then add light soy sauce and water, and finally add some salt to taste. After cooking for a few minutes, add water starch and turn off the heat after the soup thickens.
A pot of salty and delicious fresh mushroom marinade is ready.
After putting all the things on the ox cart, the family of three, plus two buckets, a large pot and a backpack, set off for Baishui County.
As soon as they entered the county town, Chen Sanshou and Chen Sixi's eyes were a little exhausted.
Seeing people coming and going on the street, Sanshou couldn't help but say, "Mom, why are there so many people in the city!"
"The clothes of the people in the city are very nice, and the houses are also elegant. They are all made of blue bricks, and even the roads under their feet are paved with stone slabs." Sixi kept observing with her eyes.
"Third brother, look, there are a lot of food there, selling buns, steamed buns, candied haws and winter melon candies!"
Sanshou looked in the direction of Sixi's finger. Sure enough, he was selling candied haws and winter melon candies, and there was even a candy seller next to him.
The two children couldn't help but lick their lips. Chen Changsheng had a panoramic view of this scene.
She smiled softly, "Let's go deliver the groceries first. After the groceries are delivered, Mom will buy a candied haws for each of you, okay?"
Sanshou's voice was clear and crisp, "Mom, I don't want to eat the candied haws, I just want to take a look."
Chen Sixi's voice was a little hollow, "I...I...I don't eat candied haws, either. We came to the city today to help my mother sell things."
The child's eyes were full of reluctance, but his actions resolutely refused.
