Earn money to support your family in ancient times

"Brother Tang, I'm sorry," Su Nuo didn't dare to look at Tang Yuan, his fingers clenched the hem of his clothes, and he said guiltily, "I messed up the matter."

The young man drooped his head like a rabbit with drooping ears. Tang Yuan couldn't help but reached out and touched his head, and said softly, "I don't blame you. People like this will come here sooner or later when they hear the wind."

"Furthermore," Tang Yuan was afraid that Su Nuo would continue to blame himself, and joked, "I should apologize for causing you and your aunt to be scolded in order to help me."

Su Nuo shook his head again and again, blushing anxiously: "No, it's not your fault, Brother Tang."

"That's right, how could it be your fault?" Su's mother quickly echoed, and then regretted, "It's all my fault. When I was looking for Zhu's wife, I was seen by Mrs. Wu. We were talking in the courtyard. Who knows what happened?" Turning around, I saw her eavesdropping at the door!"

At that time, Su's mother didn't know whether Mrs. Wu heard or not, so she came back after making an appointment with Mrs. Zhu's daughter-in-law, Ms. Zhou.

Who knew that after waiting at home for a while, Zhu's daughter-in-law didn't arrive, but Mrs. Wu arrived with a big basket of vegetables aggressively, insisting on Su's mother and Su Nuo to accept it.

Wu is Lizheng's daughter-in-law, and Lizheng has a high prestige in the village. Normally, everyone will give her three points because of Lizheng's face, and they are unwilling to conflict with her.

Originally, Mother Su and Su Nuo thought that if the dishes brought by Mrs. Wu were good, it would be fine for them to accept them, just for Li Zheng's sake.

But the dishes that Mrs. Wu brought were all wilted, and some of them were mostly eaten by insects, how could this mother of Su and Su Nuo accept it!

"Xiao Yuan, I'm sorry," Mother Su took out the money Tang Yuan gave and handed it to him, "You can take this money back."

"Auntie, have you made an agreement with those family members?" Tang Yuan didn't answer, "If it's agreed, we will take the food as you agreed."

Anyway, people have already offended him, so why delay the matter again, besides, he doesn't believe that Li Zheng will trouble him for such a trivial matter, unless he is shameless.

He has nothing to ask of him, so there is no need to be afraid of him being a stumbling block.

"By the way, auntie," Tang Yuan pushed the money back, paused, and asked, "Did you go to the village chief's house to ask?"

Mother Su shook her head: "No."

Tang Yuan: "Then go to the village chief's house and ask."

Mother Su also came to her senses and slapped her hands: "Okay! I'll go right away!"

The village head is a good person, if he gets the help of the village head, even if he offends Li Zheng, he won't be afraid!

Not long after Mother Su left, a man came in with two baskets of vegetables.

"Brother Nuo, my mother asked me to bring it here." The man put down his backpack, remembered something, and hurriedly said, "No money!"

"Brother Zhu," Su Nuo was surprised, and when he saw those vegetables, he quickly waved his hands at him, "No, Brother Zhu, I can't ask for your food for nothing. Brother Tang said just now, and we still follow what we said before, a catty of vegetables Three pennies."

As soon as Tang Yuan heard Su Nuo call this guy Brother Zhu, he thought about it and understood the identity of this guy.

He stepped forward to take the vegetables and asked Su Nuo to weigh them. After the scale was finished, he calculated the money and handed it to the man: "Su Nuo is right, you can't take things from your house for nothing, and your mother helped us just now. , we should also thank your mother."

"No...no..." The man was dumb, remembering his mother's words that would not allow him to ask for money, but he couldn't say anything to refuse, stammering, his face turned red.

Seeing this, Tang Yuan directly stuffed the money into his arms, but the man wanted to push him away but didn't dare, he was afraid that if he tried too hard, this weak man would fall over.

Tang Yuan patted him on the shoulder: "Just tell your mother that I forced it on you."

The man had no choice but to take the money and go back. On the way back, he touched the thirty cents in his arms and grinned.

It's just vegetables that don't cost money from his own farm, but they can be sold for thirty yuan, which is more than what his wife earns from selling embroidery work for a month!

After the man left, Da Zhuang also came and brought two baskets of vegetables. Tang Yuan patted him on the head and gave him money for the vegetables.

Da Zhuang didn't want it at first, but he lowered his head and accepted it when he thought of the empty rice vat at home.

He was so ashamed that he insisted on helping Tang Yuan.

Tang Yuan looked at the vegetables in the yard, calculated for a while, and felt that the portions were about the same, so he could start cooking.

He asked Da Zhuang to help him carry the vegetables back, and asked Su Nuo if he knew where there was bamboo.

Su Nuo told him the location, and then asked doubtfully, "Brother Tang, what are you doing chopping bamboo?"

Tang Yuan: "I want to make some bamboo sticks."

How could there be no bamboo sticks for Oden and Chuan Chuan Xiang? He didn't see any of these in the town, so he had to make them himself.

Su Nuo's eyes lit up: "I'll help you!"

"No!" Tang Yuan refused straight away, frowning, "This job is dangerous, don't let the injury on your foot heal, and add a few scratches to your hand."

Su Nuo had no choice but to say disappointedly: "Then let me handle those dishes for you. I don't need to move while sitting, and the work is easy."

You can't let the boy lie down all the time, Tang Yuan thought for a while and agreed, "Then I'll let Da Zhuang help you there later."

It's not that he doesn't want to help, but it's better for him to avoid the suspicion that Mrs. Wu just yelled something like that. It doesn't matter to him, but he doesn't want those rumors to hurt Su Nuo.

Su's father didn't know anything about family affairs, he didn't care about family affairs, he heard that they had made an appointment, he only told Su Nuo to be careful, and went back to study.

Da Zhuang helped Su Nuo to Tang Yuan's house, and moved a stool for him to sit in the yard.

He heard that Tang Yuan was going to make bamboo sticks, so he volunteered to ask him to do it.

Tang Yuan was afraid that he would get hurt, so he didn't let him go. Who knew that this kid took advantage of Tang Yuan's inattention and cut a few bamboo sticks, which stunned Tang Yuan.

Okay, this time Tang Yuan doesn't worry about him anymore, and entrusts him with the task of making bamboo sticks.

He himself moved a bench and sat beside Su Nuo, and after Su Nuo finished handling the dishes, he skewered them with bamboo sticks.

There was a noise outside, Da Zhuang couldn't hold his breath when he was young, and looked at Tang Yuan eagerly: "Brother Tang, do you want me to go out and have a look?"

Tang Yuan laughed: "You can go if you want, don't ask me."

"Hey," Da Zhuang scratched his head and jumped out quickly, "Brother Tang, I'll go out and have a look!"

In less than half an hour, Da Zhuang came back excitedly.

His tone was excited: "Brother Tang! It was Aunt Zhou who was chasing Aunt Wu to fight! It is said that Aunt Zhou arrested Aunt Wu and went to Lizheng to argue with him. Before Lizheng could say anything, Aunt Wu thought she had something to rely on, and fought with Aunt Wu again." Aunt Zhou started to scold, but Aunt Zhou couldn't get angry, so the two started fighting, Li Zheng's face turned blue, and said that she would send Aunt Wu back to her mother's house to reflect on herself!"

This is a big embarrassment. If you are sent back to your mother's house like this, you will not be able to hold your head up in the future!My natal sister-in-law hates her for bringing her daughter and brother into trouble, so she will definitely not give her good fruit to eat!

"It deserves it! Aunt Zhou is not easy to bully!" Su Nuo cursed disgustedly, and said indignantly, "They are all from the same family, why don't you see Aunt Zhou bullying people!"

Tang Yuan heard that Mrs. Zhou seemed to have some connections this time, so she stopped the hands of stringing sticks: "What does Mrs. Zhou's family do then? Aren't they afraid of offending Li Zheng?"

"Brother Tang, don't you know?" Da Zhuang looked at Tang Yuan with wide eyes, and then explained to him cracklingly, "Ms. Zhou's mother-in-law is the village chief's mother-in-law! And she is a policeman in the town! Of course she is not afraid It's straight!"

Most of the affairs in the village are in the hands of the village chief, and he only goes to Lizheng when dealing with the yamen. However, some villagers may not be able to get involved with the yamen in their entire lives. It's still a bit higher.

"Okay, I see." Tang Yuan put down the bamboo stick and stood up, "There's still a little left here, help me skewer it, and I'll prepare the soup base."

Da Zhuang responded, sat down and chatted with Su Nuo while wearing skewers.

Tang Yuan went into the kitchen and boiled a pot of water. After the water boiled, he put in the seaweed, boiled for a quarter of an hour, and then took it out.

In fact, the authentic oden is kombu, but there is no kombu, and kelp is just fine.

Next, Tang Yuan cut the three apples into pieces, poured them in together with the cut radishes, and simmered for a quarter of an hour.

After that, take out the things, add the right amount of sugar, salt and light soy sauce, and finally the soup will be clear and light yellow.

Tang Yuan took a sip with a spoon, it was sweet, delicious, warm, and the taste was just right!

Although he cooked a lot of soup bases, he didn't put much into it, only enough for each person to taste something new.

After all, it is going to be sold tomorrow, so if you really want to eat it, just prepare more later.

Da Zhuang in the courtyard was so greedy for the smell wafting from the kitchen, he took a few deep breaths and swallowed a few mouthfuls of saliva following the smell.

"Brother Su Nuo, this is too delicious! Brother Tang's craftsmanship is really good! No wonder he can make so much money by opening a small stall!"

Su Nuo also took a deep breath of the fragrance, and said with a smile: "Brother Tang's craftsmanship is of course good! Everything he makes is delicious!"

"Really? Then try it." Tang Yuan came out with two big bowls of Oden, and handed them to Su Nuo with a smile.

Su Nuo blushed instantly. Seeing Tang Yuan staring at him, he gently picked up a bunch, lowered his head slightly, and whispered, "Thank you, Brother Tang."

Tang Yuan gave Da Zhuang a few more skewers, Da Zhuang thanked him, and opened his mouth to take a bite.

Then he was so hot that he kept opening his mouth to breathe. What he ate was a piece of white radish. The radish was peeled and boiled in the soup until it was soft and rotten. .

But no matter how hot it was, he couldn't bear to vomit!He has never eaten such a delicious radish!No bitterness at all, fresh and sweet!

Da Zhuang sucked in his breath and swallowed, he ate without raising his head.

After Su Nuo finished eating one, he licked his lips and looked at Tang Yuan with bright eyes: "Brother Tang, can I take the rest back for my parents to taste?"

Tang Yuan: "You eat yours, there is still in the pot, when the time comes, I will take some back with you alone."

Da Zhuang didn't expect to have his share, so he cheered.

Looking at their reactions, Tang Yuan knew that this oden was in line with the tastes of the people here, and he had confidence in the business tomorrow.

He looked up at the sky and sighed slightly in his heart.

It seems that the soup base of Chuan Chuan Xiang is too late to prepare today. The soup base of Chuan Chuan Xiang is much more troublesome than cooking in Kanto, and it will take several hours.

After Su Nuo and Da Zhuang returned home, Tang Yuan ate the rest of the oden for dinner, and then began to process the meat he bought.

He will boil the suet into milky lard, which will be used as the soup base for skewers tomorrow, and he will also beat the two catties of cut pork into meatballs, which will be sold early tomorrow morning.

Thinking of getting up early tomorrow and pulling the cart to the town again, Tang Yuan felt tired for a while, and the chopping knife danced so that only double images could be seen.

He must quickly save up the money to buy the shop!This way you don't have to run back and forth every day!

The author has something to say: Tang Yuan: Make money, make money, make money.
