"Grandma, I'm going to buy a chicken. Let's have chicken stewed with fragrant news tonight, right?"

She stir-fried a lot of Jianshouqing, Suziling, and cooked another bowl of rice, so the mushrooms were not finished. She was thinking of eating chicken stewed with Xiangxin at night, so she left some of the Jianshouqing in her stomach, leaving the unfinished Jianshouqing. , she placed it at the top of the cupboard.

"Buy chicken? I haven't heard of anyone selling it!" Su A'nai got up and went into the house, and came to the kitchen after a while.

"Go to your third uncle's house and ask. He has a lot of chickens. If you want to sell them, he will sell them." After that, he gave her sixty coins.

"I don't know how much one is now. You can take it first. If it's not enough, you can give it away next time."

"I know. Last time I went to the place where live animals were sold, I asked, it was 40 cents for a hen and 30 cents for a rooster." Su Ziling didn't take the money, so she pushed the money back.

"Grandma, I have money. I haven't spent what you gave me last time."

Grandma Su gave her an angry look, "It's the same as last time. What's given to you is for you. Just take it. Girls should still have some money in their hands." She sighed as she said that His tone was, "You earned all this money, so logically you should..."

"Grandma!"

Su Ziling interrupted her and took the copper coins, "It stands to reason that I should go out, otherwise the chicken will not be cooked properly."

"You girl," Su A'nai smiled and poked her forehead, "I know you don't want to hear this, but I still want to say something. I have saved all the money you earned and will give it to you when the time comes. Make a dowry.”

"What do I earn? This is earned by everyone, the whole family earns it together, including you, grandpa, Axiu, and third uncle... This is earned by the whole family. Obviously everyone has contributed, so how can it be regarded as my earnings? Where are you? Look at Er Niu and my third aunt, walking so far every day, look at my father and the others, going to the mountains and fields every day, everyone is working hard, don’t say that again in the future!"

Su Ziling put the money in her pocket, thinking that she still had some tofu she made in the morning, so she mixed two bowls and put them in a basket, then took one bowl to her two uncles' families.

Ever since tofu started to be sold on both sides of the mountain in the county, when I make tofu at home, I will make an extra bucket and put it at home.

Sometimes people will come to the house to change, and Su A'nai can also help change some at home.

If it is not sold out that day, then you can eat some for yourself, Liu Guilan's family will share some, and Ji Yunchu's family will share some, so there won't be much left.

"Okay, okay, okay, let's not talk anymore. You go quickly. Axiu and I have washed the remaining bacteria, and there aren't many left." Su A'nai smiled and shook her head helplessly, but But there was infinite relief in his eyes.

The third uncle's and fourth uncle's homes were in the same courtyard, a bit like a courtyard house. One family lived in the east wing, and one family lived in the west wing. There were three rooms in the main house plus the living room, and the two rooms on the left and right were for one family. The living room in the middle was shared by both families. .

When she went, everyone was picking sweet potatoes in the yard, "Third uncle, third uncle, are you at home?"

Seeing that it was her, everyone stood up to greet her, "Ah? Xiaoqing," the third uncle looked at the sky and joked: "The sun didn't rise from the west today, what kind of wind is it that's blowing you?" Has this busy man gotten here?"

Su Ziling smiled, "Look what you said, I'm here!"

Hearing the commotion in the yard, the fourth uncle and his family also came out of the house, "Xiaoqing is here? Sit down for a while, sit down for a while, I, a gray-faced person, can just come and wash my face."

The fourth uncle was obviously very happy to see Su Ziling.

"Don't worry, I'm just here to sit down." She opened the basket, "I'll give you some tofu by the way. I don't usually see you at home."

The third uncle wiped the ashes and said, "Why bring something with you when you're here? You can just keep it and sell it for yourself."

"What's for sale is for sale. You still have to eat it yourself." The fourth uncle washed her hands and came over to continue. She didn't say any polite words.

He smiled and said, "But I really like your tofu. It tastes great. Your fourth uncle, every time he eats this tofu, he has to pour a sip of wine on it. I don't know what it is for, so he just takes one sip and sips a few times." ten times."

After saying that, everyone burst into laughter. Wine is very expensive and no one usually drinks it, but when guests come to the house, they still have to pour a glass out to greet the guests.

The third uncle and the fourth uncle like this one, but they just pour it occasionally and sip it a few times to taste it.

The two uncles brought the tofu into the kitchen, changed the bowls, washed the bowls and returned them to Su Ziling.

"Third uncle, what are you doing?" Looking at the sweet potatoes all over the yard and watching them picking them, Su Ziling was puzzled.

"Hey, didn't I hear your Uncle A Yuan say that you want to buy sweet potatoes? I just thought, I can't eat them all myself, so I will take them out all at once for your family to pick and wash. This store will be stored in the cellar for a while. I won’t be able to finish the food, and when the new grain comes out, the ones in the cellar will probably start to vine.”

The third uncle poured a glass of water, took a bowl of melon seeds, and was busy.

Su Ziling stopped her and said, "Uncle, please stop being busy. I'll have to go back to cook after I sit down for a while. I guess my grandpa and the others will be back soon."

The third uncle entered the house again, and after a while he brought out a bowl of mulberries for her, "Come, eat mulberries. I guess you haven't eaten them this year. Your third uncle just picked them this morning, and I returned them." I was thinking of giving you some in the evening, but I didn’t expect you to come.”

Su Ziling smiled and said, "That means I have a sharp nose and can smell it."

Mulberries are not big, similar to Huangpaoer. Unlike later generations, which are big and long, this wild one is particularly sweet when it is ripe.

Su Ziling took a look at the ones they picked out. Some were half eaten by insects and had pits, but they were not broken inside and did not affect eating.

"Uncle, there's no need to pick out like this. Just pick out the ones that are broken and can't be eaten. The bumpy ones like this don't affect eating, so there's no need to pick them out."

"Is that so? Didn't you say you want to sell it? I'm afraid people won't buy it because it doesn't look good, right?"

The third uncle was stunned for a while.

"It's not going to be sold like this, it has to be processed." Su Ziling didn't elaborate, "I'll be too busy by then, so I guess I'll have to ask my two uncles to help!"

"You can just ask, but if the whole family is too busy, just say, you're welcome."

The third uncle said as she stuffed melon seeds into her hand, "These melon seeds grew better last year. I planted some more this year. The melon seeds are fuller than others. Eat more."

Su Ziling accepted them all, until finally she couldn't hold them anymore, "That's enough, that's enough, third uncle, I can't take any more," she smiled and put some back.

"Since you said you're welcome, I'm really rude. Uncle, do you have any chickens at home to sell?"

The third uncle was stunned for a moment, "Yes, there are. Why did you buy chickens? I remember you have a few chickens at home, don't they? They don't lay eggs anymore?"

The third uncle frowned and said, "You old woman, why are you asking Na Duo? If you have one, just go and catch it for Xiao Qing."
