After the rebirth, I was held in my heart by the natural enemy

Early in the morning, the Xuan family brothers got up, cleaned up and washed, and planned to heat up breakfast.

There is still white rice in the basin, plus the leftover fish soup from yesterday, it is also a good breakfast.But Xuan Muzhi glanced at the stove and was dumbfounded.

Who can tell him where the bowl of fish soup on the stove last night went?The bowl was empty, with only a few fishbone left.

Xuan Muzhi was sure that neither he nor Xuanxuan had the habit of sleepwalking, they slept deeply in a thin quilt yesterday.So this dashi...

Xuan Muzhi walked around the door with a sullen face, but no one seemed to come in.Of course, half of the three walls of their small courtyard collapsed, and they could get in without going through the gate.

He didn't care if he drank a bowl of fish soup secretly, it was just to eat a few less mouthfuls, the key was that this feeling of insecurity made him uncomfortable.

"What's the matter, brother?" Xuanxuan saw his brother walking around with a sullen face inside and out, not knowing what happened.

Xuan Muzhi pointed to the empty bowl, "Someone ate it in the middle of the night. Forget it, let's make some rice porridge."

The rice can still be eaten for one meal, so just save it for lunch.

The rice was cooked very quickly. The family bought two catties and only ate a little. Xuan Muzhi asked Xuanxuan to put more rice.

Xuanxuan lit a fire in front of the stove, and Xuanmuzhi went to see the bean sprouts after washing.

Of the two catties of mung beans I bought, one catty of mung beans has already been fermented and the bean sprouts are sold out. The remaining catty is divided into two parts and soaked in hair. It’s just that it’s not long enough to sell today. The bean sprouts will be delivered to Xi’s family today. , which grew from the remaining four kinds of beans.

Xuan Muzhi glanced at it, and it seemed that it was not neat. The bean sprouts on the pea sprouts and soybean sprouts were very large, while the red beans and black beans looked not much different from the mung beans. After thinking about it, Xuan Muzhi decided to put the pea sprouts And soy bean sprouts are off the list for today's delivery.

Let these bean sprouts grow again and grow directly into bean sprouts, which is also a fresh side dish.

After the two brothers had breakfast, Xuan Muzhi went to work in the field first, while Xuanxuan was left picking bean curds at home.In fact, there is less and less work in the field now. The main reason is to check the maturity of the barley rice. Although they are all planted together, the maturity is not the same.The slurry in the fruit solidifies and hardens, and it is basically ready to be harvested, then exposed to the sun, threshed, and then to the stone mill to remove the rice husk and chaff.

Xuan Muzhi put the black and red bean sprouts into the basket, and prepared two small portions wrapped in leaves, which were given to the two soldiers guarding the gate.

Today's delivery went smoothly. When he arrived at Xi's house, someone was already waiting at the door.It was still a silver coin, which made Xuan Muzhi overjoyed.

He thought that the one silver coin he gave yesterday was food money for several days. After all, when he was selling bean sprouts in the market, it was only two copper coins a piece.Although this basket is much more than one copy, it will definitely not be as many as fifty copies, and it can sell for a dozen or twenty copper coins at most.

He didn't know that someone saw Xuanxuan selling the so-called wishful dishes that day, so he seized the opportunity and resold the purchased wishful dishes to the big housekeeper, and asked for a silver coin.Of course, the chief steward thought that the wishful dishes were priced at one silver coin, and there were more baskets than one bag, so the chief steward felt that it was already very affordable.

If you have money in your hand, you will feel at ease in your heart.Xuan Muzhi is not satisfied with bean sprouts, even bean sprouts that can be harvested in a few days.

This food is very refreshing and tender when eaten occasionally, but it is absolutely unbearable to eat every day.It can take ten days at most, or three to five days at least, and the young master of the Xi family will stop eating. At that time, he must have something to sell in order to retain the big customer of the Xi family.

In the past two days, he sent bean sprouts to Xi's family, and Xuan Muzhi also inquired about what the young master of Xi's family liked.I heard that he likes food very much, and he likes sweets even more.

The food material sugar is mainly derived from sugar cane, and can also be extracted from grains, such as maltose.

Xuan Muzhi has never bought sugar in this world, but he knows that there are, and there are many varieties.Xuan Muzhi pondered for a while, and wanted to buy some more beans today, and to make some desserts with these beans.

There are two kinds that he can think of in an instant, both of which he has eaten.One is pea yellow, and the other is mung bean cake. Both are easy to make, as long as there are raw materials and sugar, you can basically make them.

Xuan Muzhi didn't think he could keep the silver coin he got today, but as long as the food he made could be liked by the young master of the Xi family, then his money would continue to flow.

Xuan Muzhi originally planned to buy sugar, mung beans, and peas before going to look at cloth and cotton.Unexpectedly, just buying sugar would make him stretched.

There are three kinds of sugar here, which are Ningbing, Baishuang and Hongsha. In fact, they are rock sugar, white sugar, and red sugar, but they are expensive. Take Ningbing as an example, a catty costs one silver coin, which is cheaper than the most expensive meat. If it is more expensive, it is definitely not something that ordinary people can afford.The cheapest one is probably maltose, which costs [-] copper coins per catty. This is because the wheat production on Berman Island is not low, otherwise it would not be much cheaper than Baishuang.

Xuan Muzhi gritted his teeth and bought half a catty of Baishuang, and some maltose.The price of maltose is cheaper. When making mung bean cakes, not only frost, but also some maltose are needed.

After buying these two items, the seventy copper coins were gone again.After all, Xuan Muzhi didn't go to buy cloth, he really doesn't know how to make clothes, don't care if it's modern or here.Since buying cloth is useless, you can only buy ready-made clothes, which are more expensive than cloth.If he and Xuanxuan were alone, they might not even have enough money.

Mung beans and peas were bought at ten catties each, and the beans were cheap. Twenty catties of beans only cost ten copper coins, and the low cost was almost negligible.This time, he still went to the stall where he bought beans last time. At the beginning, he was willing to trade with him, which could be regarded as helping him invisibly. Now that he has more money, he doesn't mind reciprocating.

Because I chatted a little more with the boys at the door of Xi's house, I came to the market a little late today, and there were almost no stalls and people in the market after buying sugar and beans.Xuan Muzhi didn't plan to buy any more vegetables, but passed by this road, but was stopped by a fish seller.

The other party was in a hurry to go home, and there were still some fish on hand that were not sold out, and the price was very cheap.After some haggling, the other party offered Xuan Muzhi's psychological price, which was the only money Xuan Muzhi had. Xuan Muzhi blinked with a smile, "Really only twenty copper coins?"

This is a big fish, although some of it has been sold since it was opened, but the rest of the fish weighs three to four catties, let alone the bones and meat.According to the price of this kind of big fish, it usually sells for [-] to [-] copper coins, but the current price is really too cheap, which makes Xuan Muzhi feel unreal.

"If it's not sold out, I won't be able to buy it tomorrow. It's not fresh anymore." The fishmonger said helplessly.

If it weren't for the lack of people in the market, he wouldn't have sold it so cheaply. After all, there was a poor-looking kid on the opposite side, and he probably wouldn't have it if he wanted too much.

If you want to take it back and eat it yourself, he is a fishmonger, so he would be greedy for fish, so it would be more cost-effective to sell it for money.

The basket on Xuan Muzhi's back already contained twenty catties of beans, but the sugar was not heavy, only one and a half catties.Now that there are three or four catties of fish in my hand, the load is really heavy, and it is past noon when I walk home from the market.

Xuanxuan is used to being frugal, and when the days get better, he doesn't dare to do anything more. In the morning, he boiled rice porridge, added some water, put some wild vegetables and reheated it, and sat on the wooden pile at the door waiting for his brother to come back.

Seeing Xuan Muzhi's shadow from a distance, Xuan Xuan went up to meet him, "Brother!"

"Are you hungry?" Although there are horse-drawn carriages in the middle of the journey from the North City to the West City, there is no means of transportation from the market back to the village. It is an arduous task to walk back with two legs.What's more, with so much weight today, Xuan Muzhi was almost numb to walking, and it was only warmer to see Xuan Xuan running over.

He is not alone now, he has a younger brother for company.

"I'm not hungry." Xuan Xuan shook his head.

"See what this is?" Xuan Muzhi raised his arm, "Do you want to eat?"

"Such a big fish!" Xuanxuan widened his eyes in surprise, but soon his face wrinkled again, "Brother... how much does it cost?"

"What? Don't you want to eat?"

"I want to eat... but I don't want my brother to work too hard." Xuanxuan said sadly.

Originally, my brother was already very tired, but now he is even more tired than before.

"If you like to eat, brother won't feel hard. Let's go, let's go home. Have you cooked yet?"

"I did. I heated up the porridge and added wild vegetables."

At noon, I ate some porridge and took a nap. In the afternoon, Xuan Muzhi invited Uncle Wu over to start making rice rice dumplings.The barley rice will be harvested in about ten days, and if we don't make rice hulls, it will be too late.

At the same time, the newly bought beans were also soaked. The mung beans were soaked first, some were soaked bean sprouts, and Xuan Muzhi planned to make some mung bean cakes first.

Xuan Muzhi drew some parts that he needed in advance and gave them to Uncle Wu. In the past two days, Uncle Wu mainly helped him build these parts.

It takes two days for a skilled craftsman to make a grain rice dumpling. Xuan Muzhi and Wu Bo are both beginners, and they only did one-third of it in one afternoon, but they also smoothed out the rest of the work, and it took less than five days It must be done.

Naturally, Uncle Wu would stay with him for dinner, and Xuan Muzhi made several dishes of the fish bought at noon.The white rice was re-steamed, and the marinated shrimp was still stir-fried yesterday.

The soup is made from fish bones, and the fish meat is minced and squeezed into balls to make a fish ball soup.

As soon as the soup pot was steaming, Uncle Wu and Xuan Xuan couldn't sit still in the yard.The fresh fragrance of this big fish is much richer than that of small fish.
