Whose farming family has the male protagonist giving three piglets as a gift at the beginning?

As March came, life became really busy, and the matter of clearing the road that I had discussed with the old patriarch of the Su family was also implemented.

No one had any objections. Originally, it was agreed that each family would provide one person and slowly start the business. However, the peas have been harvested recently and there is still some time before planting, so everyone felt that one person was too few and that two people could be provided.

If you don't dig now when you have time, you will have no time when the rain comes and it's time to plant.

Fortunately, most people planted peas this year, so the harvest was early, so we had time to dig the road.

If we plant all wheat like in previous years, I'm afraid we won't have time, and the wheat can only be harvested in April or May.

In this way, two people from each family went to dig the road, Su Ziling's family was responsible for providing lunch, and everyone had to go back to their own homes to eat breakfast and dinner.

There were many people and much food to eat, but Su Ziling did not fool anyone.

Although we cannot provide white rice and white flour buns, we can still ensure that everyone is well fed.

She found a few people to go into the county and buy a lot of coarse grains. The corn was bought in the village, which was cheaper than in the county.

When she went to the grain and oil store, she would buy some buckwheat flour, black flour, etc., mix them with corn flour, and add yeast powder, and she could also steam them into soft and large steamed buns.

When the weather is hot during the day, she will also mix some cold dishes, such as bean powder and tofu.

The bean dregs left over from making tofu can be stir-fried with pickled peppers and minced meat and go very well with rice.

Su Ziling also likes pickled vegetables, which are simple and delicious, especially when the weather is hot, and are particularly refreshing and delicious when eaten with rice.

Go to the fields and find some mustard greens, wash them and pickle them. They will turn sour in two days if the weather is hot, and three to four days if the weather is cold.

It is easy to pickle and cooks quickly. After taking it out, you only need to add some salt, pepper, chili and coriander. You can also add some fried peanuts. It is especially refreshing when mixed together and everyone likes it very much.

Su Ziling was thoughtful. If the steamed buns were dry, she would usually make a pot of soup. Most of the time, it was soy flour paste. No oil was needed, just some salt and green peppercorns.

The old Su family is short of manpower, and Su Zizhong and his family have to set up a stall. It's okay for Su Yonghe to look after the workshop. Su's father and old man Su are responsible for digging the road, and Su's mother and Su Ziling are responsible for cooking.

Grandma Su was at home, responsible for collecting things and washing duck eggs.

Considering that there were more duck eggs, Su Ziling invited another aunt to help. Sometimes when Su Ziling was not at home, she could help Su's mother cook.

"Aqing, the meal is ready. You can go and deliver it." Su's mother packed up everything and delivered the steamed buns together with the steamer.

If the quantity of vegetables is relatively large, just put them directly into the bucket, one vegetable per bucket.

After it was installed, it was covered with a lid, finally put on the ox cart, tied up, and driven by Su Ziling to deliver it.

A section of the road had been opened, and Su Ziling would lead the cow to deliver meals every day, saving time and effort. If there was no ox cart or the road was blocked, he would have to ask someone to deliver the meals.

"Hey, here I come, mother, you didn't make soup, did you?"

Su Ziling sat on the stone steps and asked while changing his shoes.

"No, didn't you tell me not to? Oh, how can I eat the soup without beating it? The steamed buns are very dry."

After loading all the stuff into the car, Su's mother slapped her head and said, "Sacks, sacks, look at me, I forgot again."

She muttered back to the house and got two sacks, "By the way, what do you want the sacks for?"

"I'm going to pick tea. My father went to see it the other day and said it was time to pick tea, so I'll pick some and bring them back."

Su Ziling patted his trouser legs, stood up and stomped his feet, and the mud on the soles of his shoes fell off.

Grandma Su took a look and scolded with a smile: "Why don't you shake it out of the house? You don't even sweep the mud in the yard."

Su Ziling stuck out her tongue, "Grandma, stop scolding me, I'll clean it up right away."

Su Ziling took a broom and a dung basket and swept the mud carefully.

Looking at the things on the oxcart, she tilted her head and shouted to Su's mother who was busy in the house, "Mother, put the big gong pot on the cart for me."

Although Su's mother was puzzled, she still did as she was told, "Why are you taking the gong pot?"

"Cook soup, there's no soup." Su Ziling smiled and turned to lead the cow fowl.

Thinking about the tea forest, Su's mother put on her hat and said as she tied the rope, "I'll tell you, the tea forest is quite large. Didn't you say that the tea leaves are scattered quickly during this period? Two people can still pick more. If we wait for a while, the scattered leaves will not be able to be sold at a good price."

Seeing Su Ziling hesitate, Grandma Su spoke up, "Let your mother go with you. I'm at home, as well as your cousin's wife and aunt. Besides, you've sold the big pigs, so how can a few little pigs knock me over?"

"Okay, then, grandma, please go slow. If you can't fix it, we can do it when we come back. If there is anything, just shout and I will ask Yonghe to come and help."

"I know. How can you be more nagging than me at such a young age? Go out quickly. Everyone is hungry." Grandma Su interrupted her with a smile.

Liu's eyes were full of envy, and she interrupted and said, "Xiaoqing, you are worried about me. Whose eldest granddaughter is so capable? Not only does she know a lot, but she is also capable, filial, and has good craftsmanship. There are many people out there who want her."

Su Ziling raised her chin slightly when she heard this, and said with a little bit of arrogance, "Grandma, you see, I have so many advantages, but you are the only one who thinks I am nagging."

"Look at this girl," Grandma Su looked at Liu, "She just can't stand being praised. She's so arrogant. Which girl is as shameless as her?"

Liu knew that Grandma Su didn't really dislike it. "I think it's pretty good. If you don't like it, give it to me. I really appreciate it."

"Go, go, go. This is my granddaughter. I raised her by myself. How can I give it to you?"

The two old sisters laughed out loud.

Su Ziling set up the ox cart and said, "Grandma, we are leaving now. Remember to close the door."

In March, the tea leaves in the mountains were ready to be picked. Su Ziling took two days to pick tea from the century-old tea trees in the mountains.

Su's mother was tidying up the pea and broad bean fields, pulling out the weeds. Su Zizhong took three days to plow all the fields with an old ox.

This is only possible with cows. If it were dug manually, it would probably take at least ten days or half a month to finish digging.

After the land was plowed, it was Su's mother's job alone. Every morning, she carried a hoe to the fields to build ridges and dig furrows.

At noon, she came back and cooked with Su Ziling. After Su Ziling went to deliver the meal, she carried the hoe and went to the fields to continue threshing.

If you do it now in advance, you can plant corn directly when the rain comes. This saves time and effort, and you don't have to rush when the rain comes.

I was busy for several days before I finally finished beating their family, but Ji Yunchu's family has not been touched at all.

But there is no need to rush, as there is still more than a month before Grain in Ear, so there is plenty of time.

Su Ziling walked in front, leading the ox cart, while his mother walked behind, watching the ox cart. She also carried a load of water.

"Are you planning to drink water as soup?"

"Ah?" Su Ziling was stunned for a moment and didn't react.

Mother Su raised her eyebrows, "No? Then why carry a load of water? They brought their own water, but if the water is not enough, there is a ditch over there. The water in the ditch is drinkable and very cool."

Su Ziling laughed and shook his head gently, "No, I made some pickled vegetables last year. Today I plan to cook some Green Dragon Crossing the Sea Soup. This soup tastes best when it's cooked right now. The taste will change if I cook it at home and send it over."
