Rebirth in another world is good for farming

With money in his hands, Zhang Xiaoliu is also quick at shopping.He thinks more long-term, of course, two houses that are exposed to wind and rain cannot live for a long time.But if you get the money and build a new house right away, firstly, you can’t improve your life and you have to “go back to before liberation overnight”, and secondly, such a big move like building a house will arouse suspicion.Therefore, his plan is to live there for a while now that the weather is good, and repair it as soon as possible. As for rebuilding the house, at least he will have to make plans next year.Almost everything is missing at home now, but it must be made up first.

Although it was only the second time he came back to town, Zhang Xiaoliu seemed to know his way like an old horse, which surprised Zhao Zhengze.He went to the grain store first, and ordered ten catties of fine white noodles and five buckets of low-grade white rice from the smiling waiter in the store.These things are not cheap, Zhang Xiaoliu was really heartbroken when he calculated the prices here when he bought them.Twelve Wen a catty for white flour, and nine Wen a catty for low-grade white rice, breaking apart an ingot of ten taels of silver.Those who are willing to come to the grain store to buy rice and noodles are those with a relatively loose economy, and it is not eye-catching to spend money.

Putting the cloth bags containing rice and noodles into the dustpan, Zhang Xiaoliu went to the nearby grocery store without stopping to buy a catty of salt and three catties of sugar.Only then did he realize that salt and sugar were really luxuries at this time.But there was no way, Zhao Zhengze's symptoms of being so weak that he was about to faint at every turn looked like someone with long-term hypoglycemia.Even Wheat and Komatsu suffer from long-term malnutrition, so drinking sugar water for supplementation is also of great benefit.Seeing candied haws sold in the store with sharp eyes, he thought of his two younger brothers and hurriedly ordered two bunches.Then he turned around and saw Zhao Zhengze, he slowed down the payment and asked for another bunch.

Seeing him spending money, Zhao Zhengze didn't say anything and just followed him closely.But when he saw these things he bought, he couldn't help opening his eyes.

Walking out of the store, Zhang Xiaoliu pondered for a while, but he could take a break for other things.It's still early in the day, if I can find an ox cart to go back, maybe I can still make it to lunch time!So following yesterday's impression, I first went to the place where Dashun Meme set up their stalls, and I saw many vendors selling vegetables, poultry eggs, and meat.He bought five catties of fat and thin pork belly from a butcher shop, three big bones and half of an unsold pork liver.Pork liver is something that nourishes blood, which is just right for children to eat.Now there are four children in the family, and they taste like tigers and wolves.Usually, few people in the village kill pigs to sell, so they can only buy them back from here.

When he was about to leave, he saw a young man squatting in front of a chicken coop with dozens of chickens inside.Zhang Xiaoliu asked interestedly, and actually only sold three pieces for five Wen, so he bought fifteen pieces.Anyway, it is spring now, which is suitable for stocking.Wheat can also help take care of it at home, without much effort.

When it was finally time to go home, Zhao Zhengze's burden was no longer light.

"Can you pick it?" Zhang Xiaoliu was a little worried. Although he was a little shorter than him now, watching him work always felt like bullying a child.

"No need." Zhao Zhengze blushed, no matter what, he couldn't let the little brother do this job.

Zhang Xiaoliu had no choice but to follow him, and the two returned to the intersection, and sure enough, they saw several bullock carts parked there, and several big men were talking together.

When the two walked over, someone looked up and found that it was two children, then lowered his head, and a few people greeted them.Zhang Xiaoliu picked a lame man with a sallow complexion among those who greeted them.It wasn't that he was picky, it was just that he didn't look so strong and strong, and it was relatively safe for the two children.I asked the price in the past, and sent them back to Xiaba Village in this way, because they might not meet customers on the return trip, so they charged five cents.

The ox cart moved steadily, and was faster than Uncle Wu's ox cart.Zhang Xiaoliu remembered the candied haws he bought just now, and took out a bunch to Zhao Zhengze.

"I don't want it." Zhao Zhengze took a look, but he was not as happy as the other children, and shook his head firmly.

He clearly saw that Zhang Xiaoliu only bought three skewers, and he never thought about eating such a luxury in his heart.At this time Zhang Xiaoliu handed him the tempting candied haws, which of course surprised and delighted him, and made him feel that living with these three brothers, he was no longer the one who was completely ignored.But then he thought that since Zhang Xiaoliu only bought three servings, he must be reluctant to eat it, so he firmly refused.

Looking at his expression, Zhang Xiaoliu understood after a little thought: "I have a toothache for the past few days, so I can't eat this kind of sweet food. You should eat it first, or it will melt away."

Zhao Zhengze stared at him suspiciously for a long time. Seeing his resolute and unrestrained expression, he reached out to take it and began to eat it in small bites.

Looking at the things in the car, I was in a happy mood, and I felt that the time passed quickly, and I didn't feel bored for an hour.When approaching the entrance of the village, Zhang Xiaoliu asked the man to stop the ox cart, and the two got out of the cart and paid the money before heading home with a dustpan.It was noon at this time, and there were not many people outside.Zhang Xiaoliu still used sundries to cover the rice noodles below, and the two hurried past without meeting any villager face to face.

When he got home, Mai Mai was heating up pancakes in the stove for Xiaosong to eat.It's just that the pancake was too dry, and Xiaosong ate it very slowly, just biting a hole.

"Wheat, you all don't eat it first, my brother will cook something delicious for you." Zhang Xiaoliu couldn't hide the joy on his face, and took out the things he bought from the burden that Zhao Zhengze put down, and asked Zhao Zhengze to take care of the little chicken. Zai's cage was taken outside the door, and he handed two candied haws to Xiaomai and Xiaosong respectively, while he carried rice and pork into the stove.

"Brother, why did you buy so many things?" Xiaomai only knew that his brother told him that he was going to the market today, and when he saw that he brought back so many things, including rice and pork, his eyes widened.

"Hehe, my brother sold some things for some money, and I'll let you all have a full meal of white rice at noon today!" Zhang Xiaoliu said with a smile, this was the first time he didn't feel worried after waking up here.Although he must be prepared for a long-term struggle, this windfall can also give him a breather.

He measured about two catties of rice in a large bowl with a gap in the mouth, and first boiled water in a large pot to steam the rice.This is his first meal of white rice here, and he is looking forward to it.In the past, brown rice was mixed with miscellaneous grains that he could not name clearly. In Zhang Xiaoliu's eyes, it was not real rice.

After steaming the rice, he started pouring the pork.Although I bought meat, there are no other side dishes available at home.He thought about it, first cut about half a catty of pork and chopped it into minced meat, then put salt and a tablespoon of water, stirred it and put it aside, waited for the steamed rice to boil, then put it into the pot to steam into meat patties.

Before he finished eating the wild bamboo shoots at home, he washed some and cut them into long pieces, and boiled water in a small pot next to him.When the water boiled, he cut another plate of meat slices.Blanch and drain the wild bamboo shoots, put the meat slices into the pan and stir-fry, add the wild bamboo shoots when they are half-cooked, then add water and simmer.His thoughts turn quickly, and he does things in an orderly manner, quickly and well.

Seeing that the vegetables had been stewed, he cut the remaining three catties of pork into three strips, washed them together with the pork liver, sprinkled them with salt, and tied them with straw ropes to dry.The weather in spring is humid, so it is impossible to make bacon.But he doesn't want to make bacon, but he just hopes to keep it for a few more days, so that he can cut some for cooking and stewing rice every day.

The firewood was burning brightly, and he didn't have to watch it.When he walked out, he saw Xiaosong smiling sweetly holding a bunch of candied haws. After eating for a long time, he only licked the layer of candy wrapped on the surface.Meanwhile, Mai Mai squatted by the door and looked at the little chicks in the cage, holding the untouched candied haws in her hand.

"Is it delicious?" Zhang Xiaoliu walked over and pinched Xiaosong's face.He doesn't have any sensuality at all, so we have to work hard to raise him well.

"Okay!" Xiaosong knew that it was his brother who had this sweet thing when he came back, squinting his eyes and rubbing his face against Zhang Xiaoliu's waist, trying to stuff the candied haws into his mouth.

"Brother, don't want it." Zhang Xiaoliu didn't like to eat his saliva, so he quickly pushed back.

"Mai, why don't you eat?" Zhang Xiaoliu walked over again and patted Mai on the shoulder.

"Wait for my brother to eat together." Zhang Mai turned around and smiled shyly. He was older and knew better about the predicament the family was facing.Candied haws is undoubtedly a very rare snack. He saw that only he and his younger brother had it, so of course he was reluctant to eat it alone.In the past, when he went out to play, he had seen some friends come out to eat with such a thing, which was very gratifying.

"Brother has already eaten at the market." Zhang Xiaoliu sighed secretly, the child is too sensible, and it sounds sad.

By the time the rice is steamed, the dishes have already been braised.As soon as the food comes out of the pot, the room is full of fragrance.Under Zhang Xiaoliu's order, the white rice was paired with generous meat pies and stewed meat with wild bamboo shoots, and everyone's mouths were full of oil.Even Xiao Song refused to let his brother feed him, instead he grabbed the spoon and stuffed the food into his mouth.

After eating, Zhao Zhengze quietly put the ingot of silver back into Zhang Xiaoliu's hand.Zhang Xiaoliu didn't refuse, thinking that it was really hard for such a big child to take care of so much money.

"I'll save the family's money first, and I'll build you a house and marry you later." He said with a smile.

Zhao Zhengze listened, but was stunned for a long time, his face flushed, he lowered his head and said, "My brother is you." Then he ran away.

Zhang Xiaoliu was also stunned for a moment, although at that time it was agreed that the two would only live under the same roof if they got married, but he always regarded this as a stopgap measure, just an excuse.They only thought that Zhao Zhengze would grow up in the future, and the two of them just pretended that this matter didn't exist.He didn't expect to hear him say that suddenly, and he couldn't help sighing, how old a child is, but he already knows what it means to marry a brother.

It has to be said that this money gave Zhang Xiaoliu a great sense of security.This time it cost more than one or two taels to buy things, and he saved the remaining 25 taels, and the three taels of loose change was used for daily spending.
