From the end to the other world

There is a small stream running through the village in Chengjia Village, so many people in the village raise ducks. This season is when the ducks lay eggs. Before they got married, they received hundreds of duck eggs from the villagers.

After arriving home in the afternoon, Qin Luochuan took the baskets and went to the village to buy them at the same price as in the town, one penny each, and someone immediately came up to inquire.

After all, it will take time to sell it back and forth in the town, and it may not be possible to sell it.

Duck eggs in summer are perishable, and there is no other way to tell them apart. You can only feel them by shaking them gently one by one. Knowing that he wants more, everyone is not in a hurry. They consciously line up the baskets containing duck eggs and wait for Qin Luochuan to count them. Shang Qingyue took the money bag and gave the money by the side.

Seeing that he bought so many duck eggs, many people were very curious, "Boy Qin, why did you buy so many duck eggs, can you finish them?"

"To make salted eggs," Qin Luochuan said with a smile, "a friend who runs a shop in the town asked for it."

Qin Luochuan didn't directly say that it was used to make moon cakes, because he was afraid that some people who were not so clever would ask about how to make moon cakes. Since everyone is from the same village, it would be embarrassing to say or not, so he simply kept it a secret from the beginning.

But there were also those who ate the mooncakes he sent last year, and they were more clever and guessed it, so they went back to ask questions: "You sell duck eggs, you sell duck eggs, why ask so many, don't you go to town and ask people if they are steamed?" Or fry it?"

The person who asked the question was usually meek, so he was not angry when he was told that, and he just said: "Isn't it because Kid Qin buys a lot, I'm curious."

Thinking of keeping food for himself and gifts for others, Qin Luochuan bought another [-]. When the time comes, he will make salted duck eggs with his family. If there are more, he can keep them to eat with porridge on weekdays, or make some double-yellow moon cakes It's okay, don't worry about wasting it.

There was a woman who came over with duck eggs and didn't catch up. Seeing that Qin Luochuan had already bought enough, she was still a little regretful, and asked, "Boy Qin, do you still want to buy duck eggs in the future?"

Mooncakes are only sold for such a period of time a year, and they will have to wait until next year to make them again, but Qin Luochuan didn't directly say that they don't need them anymore, and just said: "I don't need them for now, and I'll tell everyone if I want them later."

"Okay, then you have to remember to call me Auntie next time," the woman didn't bother, "Our family also has a lot of duck eggs and rhubarb, and the salted eggs are delicious."

As soon as she finished speaking, someone beside her laughed and said, "They are all raised in the same stream, don't make it seem like your ducks are different."

He had to pickle the duck eggs when he went back. Qin Luochuan didn't participate in the chatting of the villagers any more, and went home with the duck eggs. When Shang Qingyue came here, the heavy purse in his hand was running out, so he replaced it with two baskets full of duck eggs.

Different from the way everyone here makes salted duck eggs, Qin Luochuan does not need yellow mud to make salted eggs. He only needs to wash the duck eggs and dry them, then soak them in white wine for a quarter of an hour, and then roll them in fine salt to seal them.

This way of salted eggs saves time and effort, and requires much less salt. The most important thing is that the salting time is short and the oil yield is high.

The Mid-Autumn Festival is only twenty days away. If you use the ordinary yellow mud pickling method, you may wait until the Mid-Autumn Festival is over, and the salted eggs will not be marinated yet.

Shang Qingyue had never seen this method before, but since Qin Luochuan and Qin Yan both agreed, he believed that the three of them spent one night marinating all the duck eggs and sealing them in the jar.

Before Qin Luochuan said that he would take Shang Qingyue to the mountains, but it would take a few days before he could do it, because the next day was the three-day return home after getting married.

No matter how much Shang Qingyue wanted to get rid of the relationship with the merchant, she still had to go there.

Perhaps most men have the common problem of not liking to tidy up their clothes, and Qin Luochuan is no exception. Before getting married, no one helped him. When he had to, he had to tidy up by himself.

On the morning of the second day of marriage, it was Shang Qingyue who helped him find the clothes he wanted to wear from the closet, and then Qin Luochuan found out that someone would take the clothes back for you at night, fold them and put them in the closet, and arrange them for you the next morning The clothes to be worn that day, this kind of day is simply not too beautiful.

This day was also the same as the previous two days. After the two woke up, Shang Qingyue got up first, and after dressing herself, she found out the clothes Qin Luochuan was going to wear.

After getting the clothes in his hands, Qin Luochuan couldn't help raising his eyebrows. These are the clothes he usually wears when working. Not only are they a bit old, but the fabric is also the cheapest coarse cloth.

Seeing Qin Luochuan's meaningful smile, Shang Qingyue, who was originally calm, felt a little embarrassed, and said coyly, "Aren't we going back home today?"

Qin Luochuan nodded, smiled and said, "Understood."

Although they didn't say it clearly, both husband and wife understood what the other meant.

Qin Luochuan is just a mere poor scholar, and he got a bride price of 100 taels before, so it's normal that he is so poor that he can only wear this kind of coarse clothes.

Even Qin Yan, after seeing the two of them bring some presents, came back dressed like this and didn't say much.

The two villages are next door, and it takes more than a quarter of an hour to walk there, and it takes less than two quarters of an hour to get there. The two of them didn't set off too early, lest they get there, and they would be embarrassed to stare at everyone.

Qin Luochuan and Shang Qingyue pinched each other and rushed to the store before noon.

After entering the door, before the others could speak, they heard Shang Qingyue's cousin Shang Feiyao say, "I thought third brother wouldn't be back today?"

Although this point was intentional, but as the twins married by a businessman, Shang Qingyue was not suitable no matter what.

Qin Luochuan was different, he said flatly: "There is a lot of work in the field, and it will be too late to finish it."

Shang Feiyao showed such an expression on her face, she seemed to be pleased by the meaning of Qin Luochuan's words, and she didn't criticize anymore.

At noon, the two of them had dinner at the merchant. Usually, under such circumstances, the elders in the family would ask how their twins or daughters were doing at their husband's house and whether they were used to it.

It seemed that she was still dissatisfied with Shang Qingyue's choice at the beginning. The old lady Shang said: "You choose people yourself, and you have to bear the responsibility for whether you live well or not. We can't control it."

Shang Qingyue nodded, "Qingyue knows."

"Well," the old lady Shang said again, "Since you have a lot of farm work, you should come here less in the future if you have nothing to do. Let's go back early after dinner today."

"Okay." Shang Qingyue curled her lips and smiled ironically.

When returning home three days later, under normal circumstances, the new son-in-law would be detained for one night, there is no one who would drive people away like this, but Shang Qingyue didn't care.When he entered the yard just now, he saw that the small room he lived in before was already full of firewood, so naturally there was no room for him to stay overnight, so he was not surprised to hear his grandmother say that.

Instead, it was Qin Luochuan who was a little worried about Shang Qingyue after listening to it.

The two left after eating and walked out of the yard. Shang Qingyue said, "Don't worry about me. I have long given up on uncle's family and grandmother."

So there will be no disappointment and sadness.

It's just that I haven't seen him for a few days. Shang Minghuai looks darker and thinner than before, and the third uncle is the same. He must not be doing very well.

The uncle's family and grandmother are all wearing new clothes.

Shang Qingyue sighed silently in her heart. Although the third uncle's family had a good relationship with him, but he was a married couple. In this situation, even if he wanted to help, he couldn't help much. Only the third uncle and three aunts thought about it. There is a way to change the status quo.

Shang Qingyue pulled back her thoughts, and seeing that Qin Luochuan's worried expression eased slightly, she said again: "Didn't you say that you would take me into the mountains before? Since there is nothing else, let's go tomorrow. I have never I went to the mountains to pick wild fruits."

Seeing that Shang Qingyue really didn't care, Qin Luochuan nodded while reassuring: "Okay, then go tomorrow."

When making salted eggs before, Qin Yan knew that Qin Luochuan would go into the mountains in the next few days, and seeing what he was preparing to bring, he said, "Since you are taking Qingyue with you, then take your bow and arrow with you, too. Might be able to hunt some prey."

Qin Luochuan paused when he heard the words, he didn't want to agree to Qin Yan's request, but he didn't want to say it in front of Shang Qingyue, so he just shouted: "Father!"

I hope Qin Yan can understand his thoughts.

In the end, Qin Yan didn't wait for Qin Yan to say "then don't bring it", but Shang Qingyue asked without knowing it, "Does your husband know how to use arrows?"

"A little bit." Qin Luochuan replied with some embarrassment.

The bow, arrow and sword were all taught by Qin Yan after arriving here. At first, when Qin Luochuan saw these two things, he was excited. He always felt like the chosen one who fell down the cliff and met an expert by chance.

Later, it was proved that an expert might really be an expert, and that the Chosen One was a pure fantasy. In terms of physique, he was indeed much stronger than ordinary people, but after practicing bow and arrow for an unknown period of time, the results were mediocre. Bows and arrows are used to shoot prey, it is better to just start directly.

Qin Yan had long since given up teaching him, but he never expected to bring it up at this time.

Although he was unwilling in every possible way, when he went out the next morning, Qin Luochuan carried the bow and arrow Qin Yan gave him on his back, and secretly brought some seasonings, planning to take it out if he caught prey, and go up the mountain for lunch at noon. When you hit it, it's like nothing happened.
