Traversing into a little brother farming

After approaching, I heard a brother knocking on the door.

"Cheng Hui, you open the door for me, I know you are inside, open the door for me.

Cheng Hui, who was standing next to Ye Qingzhi, had a dark complexion.

☆, moving

As soon as the three of them approached the crowd, the people on the side spotted them. Many spectators wanted to boo a few times, but when they saw Cheng Hui's black expression and the evil spirit exuding from his body, they all backed away unconsciously. The brother who knocked on the door aggressively also stopped.

Swallowing, the middle-aged brother puffed up his chest and said, "Why, is it reasonable not to see brother-in-law on the second day of the wedding?" The more he thought about it, the more reasonable he became, and he spoke louder.

"Fellow folks, comment, my father-in-law passed away when Zai Hui was 15 years old. He was not married at that time, and we arranged the marriage for you. Now that you are capable and can make money, you don't even have such a big deal like getting married." I don’t know if we will meet, but today is the day when the new brother visits the elders, and I don’t see you coming, it’s unreasonable to the horizon.”

Ye Qingzhi frowned, and when he was about to speak, he was stopped by Cheng Hui. It was useless to reason with such a shameless person, "Is this my ex-brother?" He said it loudly, overshadowing the cursing Liu Fulang especially emphasized the word "before" so that everyone present could hear it.

Immediately, all those who wanted to accuse Cheng Hui just now shut up, the word 'front' has a lot of meaning!Could it be that there is something else they don't know about their separation, everyone present listened to what Cheng Hui had to say.

Liu Fulang also closed his mouth, and after a while, he said: "What is it called ex-brother? Could it be that he really married into my brother's house as others said."

Cheng Hui took a few steps forward, with fierce eyes, "Liu Fulang, when we separated, I wrote a letter of renunciation with my elder brother. From then on, life, old age, illness and death have nothing to do with each other. Why? You want to come here today to settle the matter with me." Was it about the separation?"

Immediately, the people present were in an uproar, they actually wrote the letter of renunciation, then they were really not even relatives, no wonder Cheng Hui didn't even have a piece of clothes when he came out with his little brother, I didn't expect Cheng Liang to be so cruel .

In this era, the severance letter is equivalent to the complete severance of two families, and it has nothing to do with it from now on.

Generally, the letter of severance is written, because a certain clan member or blood relative has done heinous things, or is unfilial, parents and brothers will write it, and it will be written in triplicate by the patriarch or Li Zhengzheng to completely sever the relationship. .

And Cheng Hui obviously did nothing wrong, let alone being unfilial. In the end, Cheng Guang wrote a letter of renunciation, that is, he wanted Cheng Hui to leave the house without leaving the house. A man brought a little brother who was only a few months old, If it weren't for Cheng Hui's ability to hunt and Cheng Ama's help, they would have died of starvation or freezing to death. From this, we can imagine how amazing Cheng Guang and his wife did back then.

Ye Qingzhi obviously thought of this, took Brother Jin's little hand and approached Cheng Hui, patted him on the shoulder lightly, turned his head to Liu Fulang and said: "My brother-in-law and your family have already written a severance letter, then you and I There is no relationship between the two families anymore, you still want us to go to the Yamen with the letter of renunciation and go to the county magistrate for comment."

These words really scared Liu Fulang. In ancient times, ordinary people were very awed by the yamen. Unless it was a major matter like murder, they would usually be solved by the village head. Ye Qingzhi directly said the yamen, not for Liu Fulang. Fear.

At this moment, Liu Fulang's brother-in-law, Cheng Guang, Cheng Hui's eldest brother, came, threw a hoe, rushed over and slapped Liu Fulang to the ground.

"Cheng Guang, you dare to hit me, I'll fight with you." Liu Fulang stood up and rushed over. Unexpectedly, Cheng Guang slapped him again, which not only stunned Liu Fulang, but also confused everyone present, including Ye Qingzhi.

"Hurry up and come home with me, and don't embarrass yourself outside." Cheng Guang didn't know how he felt about this younger brother who killed Ah Mo. Anyway, now that they have written the renunciation letter, life and death have nothing to do with each other.

Seeing Cheng Guang pulling away Liu Fulang with red and swollen cheeks, Cheng Hui said: "Just this once, if Liu Fulang dares to come to my house to make irresponsible remarks again, I will never let it go easily."

Cheng Guang paused, then pulled Liu Fulang to continue walking.

"It's done, it's done, let's all go away." Li Amo is the closest to here, and rushed over when she heard the news. Just in time to see Cheng Guang beating Liu Fulang, she saw them go, and hurriedly asked the others to disperse open.

Ye Qingzhi smiled at Ama Li, thanked her, then picked up the well-behaved brother Jin and entered the door with Cheng Hui.

"Are you okay?" Before Ye Qingzhi could comfort him, Cheng Hui asked him first.

Ye Qingzhi shook his head, "It's okay, but you, are you okay?"

"It's okay, it's just that we can't live here anymore. Let's move to Lingnan Village tomorrow." He didn't intend to talk about the severance of the book, but he didn't say that if Liu Fulang smeared them, the whole village would be spit on them. die.

He could ignore it before, but now that he married Qing Geer and came in, he had to make plans.

Just talking about the renunciation book, maybe many people will say big brother, but there will also be many people who will say about them. I am afraid that they will not even be able to leave the door, and they will move to Lingnan Village. It is better to go to Lingnan Village tomorrow. moved.

Cheng Hui had made some preparations before. For example, he didn't move the big things at home, but only moved the small ones. According to Ye Qingzhi, don't move these things. Without Cheng Hui's manly dignity, he didn't say a word.

Fields are precious these days. Cheng Hui has been hunting for so many years, and he has saved five acres of fertile land and ten acres of dry land. The location is just at the junction of Lingnan Village. It only takes seven or eight minutes to go from Ye Qingzhi's house, so he decided to keep his own farmland. .

When moving, Cheng Hui specially borrowed an ox cart, put all his things in the cart, asked Ye Qingzhi to sit on the right side with brother Jin in his arms, and his family sat on the left side driving the cart.

It took only 5 minutes to arrive at Lingnan Village, many people were a little surprised to see them, but Liu Fulang didn't say anything bad about Cheng Hui in Lingnan Village, so he was kind to him.

When Chen Fulang saw Ye Qingzhi's family come back, he was surprised: "Why did you come back?" Then he realized that he had made a mistake, and hurriedly said: "Just come back, I will help you move things."

"There aren't many things, so I don't need my brother's help." Ye Qingzhi smiled and moved the things inside.

Although Cheng Hui has been here a few times, he has never entered the house to see it. When he came in for the first time, he felt that the layout of the place was very comfortable and beautiful. He scratched his head and had never read a book.

Brother Jin likes this place very much, especially when Ah Ma said that he has a room for himself, he jumped up happily.

Ye Qingzhi directly took out his dowry quilt and used it. These things are consumables, so it would be a pity not to let them go bad.

Only Cheng Hui didn't think so, "This is your dowry, you should put it away yourself."

"We're a family, what's yours and what's mine are for use, why don't you keep mice?" Ye Qingzhi smiled again, "If you really feel bad, earn more money and give it back later. I just bought a new one."

"Okay." Cheng Hui's heart was warmed by what Ye Qingzhi's family told him, and he raised his lips and nodded fiercely, "I will definitely let you and brother Jin live a good life."

Ye Qingzhi smiled. In fact, he has no worries about food and clothing now, and he has a family and children. There is really nothing wrong with him, but he is self-motivated, so he can't beat him.

After the things were packed, it was already evening, and Ye Qingzhi briefly cooked two dishes. After the meal, Ye Qingzhi bathed Brother Jin and put him to bed.

Brother Jin is really obedient, he obeys everything you say, he is so obedient, it makes people feel distressed, Ye Qingzhi plans to shave his hair tomorrow, let him grow his head again, and then teach him to read and write.

Back in the room, Ye Qingzhi looked at the big red "囍" on the window, and the corners of his mouth turned up unconsciously, and he saw Cheng Hui coming back covered in steam, he probably went to the well to take a shower.

"Why don't you just take a cold shower? What if you catch a cold?" Ye Qingzhi asked with a frown as he wiped his hair with a cloth.

"It's okay." Sitting in front, Cheng Hui couldn't help grinning silly when he felt Ye Qingzhi rubbing his hair behind him.

The last time we got married, the little brother was young, and when he saw him, he shrank back, as if he was a scourge. He really didn't feel the happiness of getting married at all.

After his hair was half dry, Cheng Hui stood up suddenly, took out a small jar from a box, and handed it to Ye Qingzhi.

"All my belongings are here now, and I'll let you take care of them now." This means handing over the family's finances to Ye Qingzhi and letting him take care of them.

Ye Qingzhi smiled, did not refuse, took the jar directly, and saw that there were only three small ingots of one tael, five or six small silver coins of one tael, and then two large strings of copper plates and a pile of copper plates.

After all, it was more than six taels, but it was only the ten taels he asked Cheng Amo to bring to him, plus the twenty taels in the dowry gift when he proposed marriage, there were three more taels. In the countryside, to have so much silver, Already considered a rich peasant, definitely not bad.

For this marriage, Ye Qingzhi melted the silver box and the two silver bracelets into silver ingots. There were only 20 taels of silver in the dowry. Now he took them out and counted them all. There are more than 56 taels, which is definitely not a lot in the countryside.

Ye Qingzhi thought for a while, and put away the 40 taels. This is his private house, so there is no need to take it out, and put the [-] taels that Cheng Hui gave before into the jar, as a function.

In this way, 16 taels, with land and land, can live comfortably.

☆, people's hearts

Not long after they got married, they entered the busy farming period. Ye Qingzhi had never done farm work, and Cheng Hui would not let him go to the field, just let him deliver lunch at noon.

Ye Qingzhi thought about it, and didn't delay any longer. He was really not good at farm work, and it would be a disservice if he insisted on going, so he just worked hard on eating.

Cheng Hui cooks a jar of mung bean soup every day. At noon, he will cook two meat and two vegetables, and take Brother Jin to the field to eat.

Today, Ye Qingzhi was walking to the field as usual, there were people busy there, many young men and brothers in the family were helping, seeing Ye Qingzhi carrying a basket and leading the little brother through, Most husbands will greet each other with a smile.

A little further on, there is the field he bought from Ye Dagen's family. Originally, he wanted to take back what he had planted, but Cheng Hui refused. There were only three people in the family. Ye Qingzhi and brother Jin couldn't work. He was the only one. Originally, those few acres of land were enough for him to keep busy.

Because of this, Tao Ama came to ask him, Ye Qingzhi told him with a smile, reassuring him, but Chen Fulang didn't ask directly, and made Ye Qingzhi feel a little uncomfortable.

In the field, Tao Ama and Chen Fulang were both cutting rice. When they saw Ye Qingzhi, they straightened up and said hello. Tao Ama's parents-in-law were gone, and now he was in charge of the house, so he dropped the sickle and came over to say hello to Ye Qingzhi. A few words, no one will say anything, Chen Fulang can't do it, after all, he has his parents-in-law, brother and sister-in-law, so it's not easy to be lazy.

"Brother Qing, last time you said you wanted a puppy, do you still want it?" Ye Qingzhi said it last time before he got married. At that time, he lived alone in a house, and a dog could help guard the house. Now Cheng Hui lives in the house, it doesn't matter if he wants it or not.

"Yes." Ye Qingzhi was overjoyed when he heard that, it would be nice to have a dog to look after the house.

"Sure, my aunt's family has a dog. It's been a few days since the pup was born, and I'll bring it to you after weaning." Tao aunt said with a smile.

"Then thank you Tao Amo." Ye Qingzhi replied with a smile, said goodbye to Tao Amo, and went to Cheng Hui.

When they arrived, Cheng Hui had just finished cutting the row of rice, and there were many people from Chenjia Village nearby. Seeing Ye Qingzhi, they all smiled at Cheng Hui: "Boy Hui, your husband has brought food."

People are sometimes very strange. For example, when Cheng Hui was in Chenjia Village, many people were afraid that he would visit them and dared not talk to him. Now that he has moved to Lingnan Village, the people in Chenjia Village are not afraid and start to think rationally. , found that Cheng Hui didn't beat anyone, and Cheng Ama helped to explain, and soon, Cheng Hui became a person with a bad life.

So these days, Cheng Hui was working in the fields, and the Chen family, who used to hide when they saw him, started to greet him instead, and found that he was not as fierce as he appeared on the surface, and even joked with him.

Hearing this, Ye Qingzhi just pursed his lips and smiled, and then led Brother Jin to the shade of a tree. Cheng Hui saw them and had already walked towards them.

So he went up the mountain with his hunting gear, originally Ye Qingzhi wanted to go with him, but Cheng Hui refused, saying it was too dangerous.

As always, two meat and two vegetables, many men around me smelled the aroma, and looked at their own bowls, they all felt a little tasteless. If it wasn't for the bad relationship with Cheng Hui, they would probably come over and ask for some food to eat .

Cheng Hui doesn't have much land, and he finished it in five days by himself. Early this morning, Ye Qingzhi opened his eyes, rubbed his sore waist, and saw Cheng Hui dressing and washing his face, and asked with frowned eyes: "The land Isn't everything in the house over, why do you get up so early?"

"It's getting cold, I'll make clothes for you and Brother Jin while I'm at it." Cheng Hui carried his bow and arrows on his back, and said with a smile, "Go to sleep again."

Ye Qingzhi was a night owl in his previous life, and he couldn’t change it for a while here. The night before was really boring. He often read those travel journals or practiced calligraphy. He usually stayed in bed until after eight in the morning. In the countryside, this is equivalent to the modern It's past twelve o'clock.

Now that I am married to Cheng Hui, I don't read travel journals or practice calligraphy every night, but do harmony sports instead. This is more tiring than watching TV and playing games, and I wake up later in the morning.

Fortunately, every elder in the family, Ye Qing knew that, no one would say anything, and Cheng Hui, wished that he could rest for a while so that he could grow some meat.

"Ah, I've finished writing this character." Brother Jin ran in with a big character and said to Ye Qingzhi who just got up.

There is a character 'Jin' on it, which is the first character that Ye Qingzhi taught Brother Jin. Brother Jin is very smart, and he can write it after teaching him by hand, so Ye Qingzhi plans to teach him the Three Character Classic today.

"Brother Jin is really smart." Seeing Brother Jin's smug little face, Ye Qingzhi pinched his finally a little fleshy face, found the Three Character Classic from the bookshelf, Ye Qingzhi once again praised himself in his heart, if he hadn't brought the book with him back then Come out, how much money will it cost to buy now!

After only teaching a few words, they heard a knock on the door, and when they opened it, it was Chen Fulang and Brother Yuan, Ye Qingzhi hurriedly let him in.

"Why are you free today?" Chen Fulang's house has a lot of land, so he didn't finish his work.

"There are still two fields of rice that haven't been cut. Let's take a day off today and cut it tomorrow." Chen Fulang smiled and asked Brother Yuan to find Brother Jin to play.

Looking at Ye Qingzhi's fair and tender face, Chen Fulang was a little envious. His skin was normal, but after working in the fields these days, he got a little tanned.

Ye Qingzhi tilted his head and picked up Brother Jin, who was holding his calf, and put him on a chair beside him. He went to the kitchen to bring out pastries, smiled and picked up a piece and handed it to Chen Fulang, "I made it last night, try it."

"Thank you." Chen Fulang saw Ye Qingzhi's white and tender hands, and lowered his head to see his calloused hands, his eyes darkened again.

"Why do you and I have to be so polite?" Ye Qingzhi only felt that Chen Fulang was wrong today, but had no other feelings.

Even if his current body is a brother, but the soul that dominates this body is a man from the 21st world. He absolutely cannot understand the jealousy between women in the previous life, just like the jealousy between brothers in this world.

He took another piece of dim sum to Brother Yuan, and saw him happily eating small bites, very cute, Ye Qingzhi smiled, put the dim sum on the table, and let him eat it by himself.

At this time, the knock on the door sounded again, Ye Qingzhi went over to see, is it Tao A?

"Is Aunt Tao resting today?" Ye Qingzhi let him in and poured him tea.

"No, our family is still cutting rice today! Didn't I say to bring you a puppy last time, look, if you don't like the newly weaned puppy, I will give you another one." The pull on the basket in his hand was opened, revealing a small milky white puppy.

Ye Qingzhi hurriedly took the basket and put it on the table, carefully took out the puppy, and stroked it, "I'll just say it casually, it won't be too late to bring it when you're free, why bother to send it here on purpose."

"It's okay, just this little time, it won't waste much effort." Tao Ama waved her hand with a smile, telling Ye Qingzhi not to mind.

"Then how much silver does the dog want, I'll get it." After saying that, he planned to go into the house to get the money.

Tao Ahma hurriedly stopped Ye Qingzhi, pretending to be angry and said: "How can a bastard ask for money, you are not looking down on me."

"That should be given. Listen to what Brother Chen said. If you don't give money, it means your dog's life is cheap. You can take some." As he said, he took out fifty coins and gave it to Tao Amo, but Tao Amo pushed it back and only took ten. money.

"That's enough." Tao Amo smiled, and was about to leave after taking back the basket, but Ye Qingzhi stopped her, made a pack of snacks from the kitchen, and put them in Tao Amo's basket.

"I made some dim sum last night, give it to your little grandson to taste." They are all simple dim sum, but the sugar in them is expensive, and few country people are willing to use them, so they are rarely available.

Tao Ama couldn't push it, and said with a smile: "Then I will thank Brother Qing on behalf of my grandson."

Seeing that he accepted it, Ye Qingzhi nodded and smiled. Chen Fulang behind saw him, his expression was ugly. Did he also like Tao Amo before to curry favor with Brother Qing?

Sometimes people start to feel a little bit of dissatisfaction in their hearts, and they will all think about the worst. Chen Fulang is a little bit like this now.

When Chen Fulang returned home, Ye Qingzhi also wrapped a bag for him to take home, but this time Chen Fulang didn't want to die, and just carried Yuan Geer home.

He didn't intend to take Qing Ge'er's things, as if he was sending a beggar, Chen Fulang walked out the door, saw Yuan Geer holding a cake in his hand, grabbed it and threw it away.

Looking at his back, Ye Qingzhi was a little confused, so when he heard Brother Jin calling him in the room, he ignored it.

Picking up Brother Jin, "What's the matter?" He carried him to the kitchen, planning to make lunch for him.

The meal was cooked in the morning and fed on the charcoal fire. It was still hot until now. When Cheng Hui left in the morning, he said he would not come back to eat. It's pretty good in the country.

Like Chen Fulang's family, the conditions in the village are considered good, but they only eat dry rice during the busy farming season. Usually they only put a little brown rice, add sweet potatoes or various vegetables to cook.

The sun was about to set, and Cheng Hui returned home with a lot of prey. Without asking Ye Qingzhi to help, he cleaned up the things in the yard and brought them in. There was a fox, some pheasants, and a bunch of hares. , Ye Qingzhi saw it, and felt that Cheng Hui directly brought the whole Rabbit family back.

The meat was not sold in the town, Ye Qingzhi was salted, and the leather was saved to make clothes. I heard that it is extremely cold here in winter, so it is time to prepare for winter.

☆, winter

Early this morning, the first snow fell in the 23rd year of Qianyuan in the Jin Dynasty. Ye Qingzhi struggled to get up from the warm bed, put on his clothes quickly, and finally got warmer.

He sort of understood how cold the winter here was, it was definitely minus ten degrees below zero.

Note that the place where he is located belongs to the Jiangnan area. According to these places, it should not snow, but it is colder than the northeast and northwest, which is absolutely abnormal.

But this also confirmed the guess in his heart, he must have arrived in another world, another planet, otherwise the weather would not be so different.

Fortunately, he didn't sell the rent he collected, otherwise, according to Cheng Hui's food intake, he probably wouldn't be able to survive the winter. Thinking about it this way, can those families who don't have so much food survive the winter?

Cheng Hui entered the room with hot water, saw Ye Qingzhi frowning there, put down the washbasin, raised his hand to smooth the bulge between his eyebrows, "What's wrong?"

"How do those poor families survive the winter?" Ye Qingzhi asked with his head turned.

As if thinking of something, Cheng Hui's eyes darkened, and he said in a flat tone: "If there is not enough food and firewood, you will freeze to death or starve to death. The villages near Lingshan are not bad. In other villages, every year A few will freeze to death or starve to death.”

Ye Qingzhi took a deep breath and looked at Cheng Hui in disbelief, "Does the imperial court not care about freezing to death or starving to death every year?"

"The Jin Dynasty is so big, how can the imperial court manage it?" In some poorer places, there are only a few, a dozen or so, and even some small villages with only a few left in the whole village, but how can the imperial court control them? life and death of the poor.

Had it not been for Cheng Ahmo's help, he and Brother Jin would probably have frozen to death and starved to death in that winter, but with the help of Cheng Ahmo and Li Ahmo, Brother Jin almost couldn't make it through. , there is no need to talk to Ye Qingzhi.

Ye Qingzhi nodded. In this day and age, the imperial court really had nothing to do. He sighed silently, and then laughed at himself. He is not a big shot, so why should he be pitiful here, and he can't help those people.

Cleaning up neatly, he walked to brother Jin's room, seeing his little face flushed in sleep, Ye Qingzhi pulled the quilt for him, and went out softly.

It would be better for a child to sleep more, and let him learn to get up early when he is seven years old.

Cheng Hui couldn't deny this, mainly because Brother Jin was a younger brother, so he naturally wanted to pamper him. If he was a kid, he would definitely disagree with Ye Qingzhi's point of view.

The rice was already boiled in the pot. When Ye Qingzhi opened the pot, the rice was already two-thirds cooked. Take out the rice and put it in another pot, and then asked Cheng Hui to put the pot on top of the stove full of charcoal and feed it slowly. , When the dishes here are fried, the rice over there is also fed. The rice cooked in this way is very fragrant.

There is still a pot of porridge left in the pot, put it in a large earthenware bowl and cover it with the inner end on the table, and then start cooking.

Cheng Hui has ten acres of dry land, of which five acres are planted with radishes and green vegetables. These two crops are easy to feed and grow quickly. Most of the nearby villages grow them. In this way, many people can survive the winter.

Qingzhi did not sell these vegetables, some of them were made into pickled vegetables, some were made into dried vegetables, and some radishes were stored in the warehouse to eat fresh. , the dish becomes particularly sweet and delicious.

Last night, I stewed the radish meat, and I didn’t finish the fried pickles before, so it’s enough to stir-fry some green vegetables. After heating the pickles, Ye Qingzhi asked Cheng Hui to wake Brother Jin up, and he took out a pickled radish and cut it up. Yes, not long after it was placed on the table, the rosy-faced brother Jin came out with his eyes wide open.

"Ah, I'm hungry." At the beginning, Brother Jin would lament that there are so many dishes, but now that he's getting used to it, he doesn't think it's unusual.

Cheng Hui didn't say anything, and he didn't think that Ye Qingzhi couldn't live a life, as long as he was happy anyway, besides, most of the meat went into his stomach.

"Drink the porridge first." Ye Qingzhi served Brother Jin a small bowl of porridge and asked him to drink it first before filling him with rice. Brother Jin obediently slurped it up, and then began to eat.

Ye Qingzhi was a little happy to see Brother Jin's delicious food, but also a little sad. Modern three-year-olds are not fed by their parents, but the children here can't get enough.

Just as he put down the bowl and chopsticks, he heard a knock on the door. Ye Qingzhi was about to open the door, but was stopped by Cheng Hui, "It's cold outside, I'll open it."

Although it was just a small gesture, Ye Qingzhi unconsciously felt a warm feeling in his heart.

"Yo! Are you eating?" The person who came was Li Zhengfulang, seeing the food on the table, he sighed in his heart how extravagant Qing Geer was.

Even if the man in his family is Lizheng, he doesn't eat dry rice or meat for breakfast, let alone this season, and there is no need to work, many people just drink some rice soup to get by, and eat some dry food at night , even if it is dry, and there is no one who eats this kind of polished rice. These are all kept for money, so no matter how willing to eat them, they are all just a small handful of coarse rice and sweet potatoes or radishes.

Speaking of this, Li Zhengfulang sighed again, did he know that Brother Qing ate three meals a day, unlike other families, who only ate two meals in the morning and evening.

"Yeah, if you don't mind auntie, let's use some together." Ye Qingzhi said with a smile.

Li Zhengfulang turned his eyes away and said with a smile: "I ate it. I came here today to tell you that our family plans to slaughter pigs tomorrow. You can come and get the half head you want."

"I know, I will definitely come and pick it up then." Ye Qingzhi smiled, and then asked, "It's only the end of November, why did you kill the pig?"

"Brother Qing probably doesn't know, the pigs were killed at this time." Mrs. Lizheng thought that Ye Qingzhi was sold to the city since he was a child, so it's no wonder that he didn't know about it.

Ye Qingzhi was stunned for a moment, and then he understood the reason. Pigs need to eat. There are pigweeds to eat in spring, summer and autumn. Only in winter, after eating sweet potato vines and bran, there is nothing to eat. There is nothing to eat. It will only grow thinner and thinner, so it is natural to kill it immediately.

After sending Lizheng Fulang away, Ye Qingzhi went back to the house, picked up Yuan Bao, that puppy, petted it lightly, and said, "Why don't we also raise a pig next year?"

"It's feasible to raise a few chickens, but let's forget about pigs." Cheng Hui glanced at Ye Qingzhi. Raising pigs is not as simple as it looks. Young brother raises.

"Yeah, why didn't I think of that." If you raise a few chickens, you can eat eggs when they grow up. You don't have to buy them from outside, and you can also eat chicken. What a bargain.

Maybe you can also raise a few ducks, Ye Qingzhi told Cheng Hui this idea, but was rejected again.

"Ducks are no better than chickens. Chickens will return to their nests by themselves every night, and ducks have to chase them away, and duck eggs are everywhere, so it's troublesome to find them. Just raise a few chickens." In short, Cheng Hui didn't want Ye Qingzhi to be too tired.

Ye Qingzhi leaned on Cheng Hui's shoulder, the corners of his mouth and eyes slightly raised.

The next morning, Cheng Hui got up quietly. Ye Qingzhi, who had been tossed all night, couldn't wake up. When he opened his eyes, Cheng Hui had already returned with the meat.

Lizheng Fulang's pig fat weighed four hundred catties, half of which included the pig's head, that was 230 catties, thanks to Cheng Hui's strength, otherwise he would have been exhausted.

Ye Qingzhi got up quickly, the kitchen has already cooked the rice, the pickles are all ready-made, just need to stir-fry another dish.

It happened that Cheng Hui brought back pork, so Ye Qingzhi cut the meat and copied the vegetables, and then soaked the pork offal that Mrs. Lizheng gave him with flour, salt and water.

Speaking of this, Ye Qingzhi recalled the countless novels he had read in his previous life. Every time he traveled to ancient times, he said that the ancients did not eat pig offal, and he thought it was true. Only now did he find out that they rarely even smell oily, why? Possibly let the pig into the water.

For example, in restaurants, there is a dish of stir-fried pork liver, which is not much cheaper than fatty meat. Besides, there are pig intestines. The ancients would not even throw away chicken and duck intestines, let alone so many pig intestines.

This time they bought so much meat, a full six taels of silver, Mr. Li Zhengfu gave a lot of pigs into the water, a page of pig lung, half of pig liver, a pig kidney and a few pieces of pig blood, and a few The small intestine and large intestine have been killed, and Xiaobao can eat it after washing it a few times.

After Ye Qingzhi finished cooking, Cheng Hui happened to take a shower to get rid of the smell. Ye Qingzhi asked him to eat first, while he went into Brother Jin's room, and saw the little brother already dressed there, although his movements were a bit slow, But very organized.

"Why didn't you call me when you woke up?" She went to help him put on his clothes together, and hugged him out of bed.

"Brother Jin will wear it by himself." Cheng Hui said when he entered the door and saw Ye Qingzhi hugging Brother Jin.

It is said that the children of the poor are already in charge of the family. Before marrying Ye Qingzhi, Brother Jin not only dressed and washed her face, but also helped light the fire and cook, although the cooking was messy.

After hearing what he said, Ye Qingzhi just smiled, a three-year-old child, and a younger brother, he should be pampered.

☆, have a degree

The winter here is not only cold, but also very long, starting from mid-October to mid-February of the next year, at least four months.

During this period, few people know how to raise pigs anymore, so there is less fresh pork. That's why Ye Qingzhi bought half a fan of pork. In addition to Cheng Hui's hunting prey before winter, it was enough.

The sun has been shining these days, so the meat can be dried. Most of them are made into bacon, and there are some pork belly that he made into soy sauce meat.

It is soaked in soy sauce, sugar and wine, then taken out to dry for a few days, and then it can be eaten.

The meat made with soy sauce is delicious, but soy sauce is very expensive, which is a luxury in the countryside. At least now, Chen Fulang's eyes reveal Ye Qingzhi's prodigal son.

Ye Qingzhi just smiled. After all, people have different values ​​and ideas. Besides, he is not short of money. This year, the renter of the 400 mu of land was not taken away by the magistrate. There are [-] taels of silver.

Besides, Cheng Hui is not useless, he earned more than [-] taels of silver from hunting after he got married, which is enough for his family of three to spend comfortably for a year in the countryside.

Of course, according to Ye Qingzhi's flowering method, it is still not enough, especially after winter, he writes and draws when he has nothing to do, and the paper at home is almost used up. Paper and pen are definitely considered luxuries in this day and age. It's also a small expense.

After thinking about it, should he think of a way to make money, otherwise, according to this method, he would not even have a deposit, and he would not panic if he had surplus food at home, and he would always have to save some money.

"Brother Qing's soy sauce meat looks good, it's the first time I've seen it made like this." Chen Fulang helped hang up the strips, smiling.

Ye Qingzhi smiled slightly, "It's okay."

He knew the meaning of Chen Fulang's words, and he just wanted him to say give him something. He would say such things before, but he can't now.

The reason is that a few days ago, he made pastries, because this kind of pastries took a lot of work, he only made for himself and brother Jin, Cheng Hui didn't make it because he didn't like sweets, and it happened that Chen Fulang brought Brother Yuan Come and drop by.

At that time, there were only two left, and he kept them for Brother Jin as snacks. He didn’t want Brother Yuan to enter the door, so he looked at Chen Fulang and said he wanted to eat the cakes, and Chen Fulang also said casually, "This is for Brother Jin." You can eat it." Then Ye Qingzhi clearly saw the grievance and jealousy in Brother Yuan's eyes.

He was really taken aback by this kind of look. He is not unfamiliar with this kind of look. When he was young, every time he went back to the countryside to play, he wore new clothes and new shoes. A few of his playmates used this kind of look Look at him, when his parents divorced and he returned to the countryside in desperation, those little friends with such eyes began to bully him and laugh at him often.

I didn't expect to see this in Brother Yuan's eyes today. Next, he began to observe Chen Fulang carefully, and he saw 01:30 from his words and deeds.

I don't know when, Chen Fulang turned from that enthusiastic little brother to a dissatisfied and jealous person.

It was also from then on that Ye Qingzhi was no longer polite and generous. He was not short of such ideas, but he had no reason to feed the white-eyed wolf. Although it was a bit extreme to think so, Chen Fulang didn't really do anything to apologize to him now.

But had he seen such examples in his previous life?Often giving things to others makes people take it for granted. Chen Fulang is not right now with such a mentality.

Seeing Ye Qingzhi, Chen Fulang just smiled, he was not as generous as before, he was a little angry for a while, but he quickly changed his temper, and said with a smile: "The bacon made by Brother Qing's house is all salted, it must be Better than bacon."

"I don't know either, why don't we try some instead." Ye Qingzhi said with a smile.

"Really, that's fine. I'll go back and talk to Ah Mo later. You must change it with me." Chen Fulang couldn't be more happy. The bacon was just straw, and his bacon was helped by him. It was made in one piece, and all of it was white salt, which was refined salt, and he was reluctant to put too much in his cooking.

The smoked meat here is actually eaten by Ye Qingzhi, and it was given by Tao Ama. To be honest, it is completely different from the modern smoked meat. It has no salty taste.
