After lunch, everyone was sitting in the room chatting, Mr. Shen took Liu Erlang to the mushroom shed to look at mushrooms, and Mrs. Shen was dragged inside by Chen Yu to talk quietly.

Shen Mei and Shen Lichun also went to play with the little sisters in the village, leaving Shen Yu alone with nothing to do.

Shen Yu looked left and right, and finally went to the kitchen to make rice dumplings. There were only about twenty rice dumplings left in the four steamed baskets that were steamed in the morning.Shen Yu packed two more baskets, and then he had to send some to Uncle Shen's house, Third Uncle Shen's house, um, Mu Jing alone, also gave some!

"Fifth brother, are you still making rice dumplings? Haven't you already eaten?"

How could Shen Yu miss the ready-made labor, and waved to Shen Mei, "Little girl, come and light the fire."

"Oh, then you will give me two."

"I'll give you four to eat."

"No, I'll just eat two. Shen Baixue said that men nowadays like to be thin. If I gain weight, no one will like me."

Shen Yu blushed, did ancient times also emphasize thinness as beauty?He thought of those modern girls who ate two fruits a day in order to lose weight, and shook his head immediately, "Don't listen to her nonsense, she has only followed her father to town for a few months, what can she know? You are only fourteen, and you haven't 15 years old, it doesn't look good if you are thin, you are fine."

"But Shen Baixue said that all the girls in the town say that they are beautiful when they are thin."

"Look at how many catties you are, not fat, not fat at all! You must have listened to your brother."

Shen Mei was dubious, she didn't know whether to believe it or not!

"Come on, turn the fire up, and you'll get angry immediately. This cage is made of meat, and it's fragrant after the fire."

Shen Yu changed the topic, so Shen Mei didn't get entangled, and asked, "Fifth Brother, did Sixth Sister steam this and bring it back?"

"No, it's for Uncle, Third Uncle and Mu Jing."

"Oh!" After a while, Shen Mei realized, "Third brother, what are you talking about? Is the Mu Jing you're talking about the one hunting in the back mountain?"

"What's the fuss about?"

Seeing her fifth brother's indifferent expression, Shen Mei panicked, she didn't hear about Mu Jing from the little sisters, she dared to kill with a knife when she was in her teens, and she became even more vicious when she was exiled to the barracks If you don't kill two people every day, you will lose your energy. After you come back, if no one kills you, you can only harm the wild beasts in the mountains. Yunyun, her little sisters also said that sooner or later, Orion will go crazy and have to kill people.

How thin is her fifth brother?If Mu Orion really goes crazy, can he beat Mu Orion?Don't be cut by two knives!No, no, I guess it only takes one knife, and I haven't seen Mu Orion kill a wild boar without much energy!

"No, Fifth Brother, you have to be careful, Mu Orion is so cruel! I heard that you can't sleep if you don't kill a few people every day in the barracks!"

However, Shen Yu misunderstood Shen Mei's meaning, thinking that Shen Mei was talking about fighting at the border every day, "So the border is so cruel? You have to fight every day, why didn't you hear Mu Jing mention it?"

Shen Mei felt that something was wrong, but couldn't figure it out, "Can he tell you? It's too late to hide this matter!"

Shen Yu listened to Shen Mei's words, indeed, it is right to keep this kind of thing hidden, this kind of thing is regarded as the secret of the military camp, so you can't say it casually.

So, the brothers and sisters had a chat with each other.

The first basket was ready soon, Shen Yu picked up the steamer and put it aside, then put down the basket filled with sugar and steamed it.

"Meat stuffing, do you want me to eat it?" Shen Yu took a bowl, filled two, and bit into it, half of the rice dumplings were lost, and the oil inside flowed out.

The gravy was boiling hot, and Shen Yu didn't pay attention, so hot that he inhaled, "Hot!"

Shen Mei smelled the smell of meat, swallowed her saliva, but still couldn't hold back, "Fifth brother, you can get me two!"

Shen Yu swallowed the rice dumpling in his mouth, sighed, "Sweet, delicious!" It was scalded badly!

"Fifth brother, hurry up and clip me."

"Hey, look what I caught? Two big rats that ate food." Fourth Shen carried a bucket into the kitchen, just in time to bump into the two brothers and sisters who ate food.

"Go, I'm not a rat, that kind of bad guy looks better than me!" Shen Mei spat on her fourth brother, and then ignored him.

"Fifth brother, two more."

"I'm not coming, I've eaten all of it for you, there shouldn't be enough left!"

"Old Five, did you bring this back for Xiaoyu?"

"No, she hasn't made it yet, it's for the uncle and the others." Shen Yu soaked the empty bowl in the water, "Did you pour the water?"

"It's watered, it's getting hot in the mushroom shed, I just went in for a while, and I'm covered in sweat."

"Is this abnormal? Wait for a while and it will be fine. In the future, we will not grow mushrooms, but only make mushroom buns, which will be better!" Shen Yu comforted.

"That one has to be cooked! It's almost the same. But it's a pity that growing mushrooms costs more money."

"Actually, mushrooms will probably become less and less valuable in the future, and it will be more cost-effective for us to sell mushroom buns."

"I heard what my father said, but I still feel reluctant!"

"There is nothing to be reluctant to do. I water [-] mushroom bags every day, and I go in several times a day. If you are not tired, I will look tired."

"Old five, you don't quite understand. In the past, my eldest brother and my second brother and I looked for jobs, and we could earn up to 20 or [-] yuan a day. Luckily, the host is kind enough to pay all the wages. A few money is a hard work fee, sometimes when you meet those domineering people, let alone those who are exhausted, those foremen will always find two excuses to deduct a few money a day, this is also good luck, look at Pingxi How many people are there in the town, and how much work do they have to do? Sometimes if they don’t work for a month, they don’t earn a penny, but now, they grow mushrooms at home, and they can get one or two taels of silver a month.”

Shen Yu didn't feel this way, although he had this kind of experience in his memory, but he also expressed his understanding, he said in relief, "Fourth brother, you don't know how to settle accounts, we sell mushroom buns, a mushroom bun costs 30 renminbi, and we make it every day 300 pieces, 9000 pieces can be made in a month, how much do you calculate? Didn’t dad tell you? He saw a method in the book, it doesn’t need to be boiled, just put some water boiled with leaves. gone."

"No! Dad has been chiseling wood there recently, and he doesn't say anything when he asks him why. He is mysterious all day long, which is very strange!" Shen Laosi really didn't want to hear old man Shen say it, and then he followed Shen Yu The algorithm calculated, "9000, 30 liters each, 270 taels of silver!"

Fourth Shen's eyes widened, "Fifth, you are so smart. There are so many, how much can we share? 27 taels, you can build a big house for the new one."

Shen Mei was dumbfounded when she heard this, "Fifth Brother, can our family really earn so much?"

Recently, she heard people say that they made money, and she knew that her elder brother sold mushrooms every day, and the food had improved, and her fifth brother even went to buy meat every now and then, or brought one or two rabbits back. The little sisters also looked at her enviously, and said some nice words to curry favor with her.

But, she didn't know that their family could earn so much money!

The happy brothers said: ...

Forgot that there was a little girl lighting the fire!

"Not so much. Right now, your elder brother is selling mushrooms every day for only 400 renminbi a day, and only 12 taels of silver a month. We are talking about the future, but you can't talk about it until this matter is over." Shen Yu urged road.

"Don't worry, Fifth Brother, I promise I won't say anything."

"Hey, after the tax is paid, let mother take you girls to buy a few bolts of fine linen to wear. Little girls love pretty."

"Really, can I have a red dress, Shen Baixue's mother made her a red dress, she looks really good in it!" Shen Mei said, with a longing look on her face.

"What's there, red, white, green, blue, choose whatever you want!"

Fourth Shen looked at it, and felt that his sister was really coaxing, and she was fooled by two pieces of cloth. If it were him, he should be able to do it too. After all, their family rarely went to the town to buy cloth, and they were all new for three years, old For three years, the fields were shattered. In the first year, father, mother and children made clothes, and in the next year, their brothers made clothes, and so on. Only when the harvest of hemp was not good, would they go to the town to buy linen.

"Okay, Fifth Brother, look, the pot is steaming again!"

"After a while, I'll go find Shau Kei and pick it up to cool off.

Shen Yu divided the rice dumplings into three parts, the uncle's family picked up 40, the third uncle's family picked up 40, and Mu Jing only picked up 30.

"Fifth, isn't it the uncle and third uncle's family? Who else did you give it to? It can't be Mu Jing's, right?"

"What are you making such a fuss about? Mu Jing is alone. There must be nothing to eat during the Mid-Autumn Festival. Anyway, I took a cheap oxcart to lie down so many times, so I picked up a couple of rice dumplings."

When Shen Laosi heard it, he felt that what Lao Wu said made sense, "It's right." Then he didn't know what to think of, "Didn't you ask mother to make moon cakes? Send them too!"

"to make!"

Old man Shen was chatting with his son-in-law, asking him about his plans for Shen in the future. Liu Erlang's father, Doctor Liu, was distantly related to the doctor in their village, and he was also a barefoot doctor.

Speaking of which, Chen Yu and Liu Erlang were also connected by family members of the doctor's family in their village.

However, old doctor Liu has two sons and two daughters in his family, Liu Erlang is the second, and he has an elder brother on the top of the mountain.His brother followed his father to study medicine and wanted to take over his father's mantle.

Only one doctor can be taught in the family, and Liu Erlang is the second child, so he can only do other things.

Liu Erlang himself had some ideas. He had been a job in the town, and he had been running a business for a year, so when old man Shen asked, he said, "I want to save money for two years, and then go to the business." !"

"I have an idea." Old man Shen was about to say something when he heard a knock on the door.

"Who is it?" Old Man Shen asked.

"Second Uncle Shen, it's me, Mu Jing!"

Old man Shen wondered why Mu Jing had no friendship with their family, so why did he come suddenly, but he still went to open the door, only to see Mu Liehu from their village standing in front of their gate with a basket in his hand, and saw him He opened the door and handed over the basket.

"Father-in-law, this is a ritual!"

Old man Shen thought he had misheard, so he rubbed his ears and asked, "Mu Orion, you are..."

Hearing old man Shen's voice, Mu Jing seemed to come back to his senses, a trace of uneasiness flashed across his face, and he corrected, "Second Uncle Shen, this is a crab, suitable for Mid-Autumn Festival."

Old man Shen was even more confused, what did Mu Orion send crabs for?And it's the Mid-Autumn Festival, usually only the son-in-law or daughter's future husband's family will give gifts, thinking about his father-in-law just now, could it be that this Mu Jing has taken a fancy to their little girl?But Mu Orion is too big, he is 25 this year, 11 years older than his daughter!

He turned around and wanted to refuse, but when he thought of Mu Jing's fierce reputation, he was somewhat dumbfounded, and could only look at Mu Jing at a loss, "This..."

Seeing old man Shen's strange expression, Mu Jing scolded Xiao Hongzhan all over his heart, what was his idea?

Speaking of which, this is all an oolong, today's Mid-Autumn Festival, Xiao Hongzhan brought a letter, asking him to go to the town to have a talk, and the two troubled brothers and sisters will spend the Mid-Autumn Festival together.Then after drinking for three rounds, actually after a big pot, the two brothers were a little drunk, and then Xiao Hongzhan, the younger brother, began to care about the big things in his elder brother's life, saying that if he liked someone, he should go after him, and he couldn't go empty-handed , this Mid-Autumn Festival is a good time to express your heart, it is best to send gifts to your door.He also ordered Shopkeeper Hu to fill him with a big basket of crabs from Yanghu Lake and let him deliver them, saying that the other party must be happy to see them.

At that time, Mu Jing also drank too much, and went back to the village in a dazed twist. When he saw the door of Shen's house, he knocked on the door as soon as his brain got hot.

At this time, a gust of wind blew, and Mu Jing's drunkenness was completely blown away. He calmed down and said calmly, "Second Uncle Shen, just accept it! It's not a big gift. Brother Yu said he wanted to eat Yanghu hairy crabs a while ago. Someone brought it."

Old man Shen suddenly breathed a sigh of relief, luckily, luckily it wasn't for Xiaoya!

The author has something to say: I changed it a bit, otherwise it would be too slow to wait for my original meaning! !
