Fields of Gold

Chapter 89: Bundles

At night, the family sat around the table drinking fresh fish head soup, eating sprayed red roasted fish and talking happily about today's harvest.

“Second sister! This afternoon's bad fish, at the beginning, people looked at the small fish, still had more pricks, watched while they were not willing to pay for it. I took a small one and showed it to them and told them that the bayonet was crunchy and that they would pay for it if they chewed it.” Little rock sipping fish soup, don't mention how beautiful it is. A month ago, he couldn't even eat coarse bread. Where did he live so well?

“At first, they didn't buy much, and I was dying. Good for those who bought bad fish food, they all said it tasted good, so many bought another one ready to take home for the kids! Uncle Hao bought five instantly, ate one of his own, and took the rest home. He said that the docks have lived a lot lately, making money is to spend it on the family, so cheap and delicious to eat. If you don't bring more back, you will be scolded by Aunt Hao! ”

Little stone's crisp voice overflowed the house and everyone looked at him with a smile. Happiness, it's that simple...

“Over a hundred fish, sold out in less than two minutes. Six brothers, the head of the other dock workers, also bought five. Master Sun and I almost fought each other to fight for the last bad fish!” Little rock is proud of the tunnel, “or I gave this fish to them one by one, free of charge, to calm down a fight. Second sister, I'm good! ”

Little grass lit his nose and praised: "Hmm! Our rock is the most powerful. He's only six years old and he's so smart. No wonder Mr. Yuan's eyes look at you! ”

Little rock got more proud. Little mouth Rabala kept talking and finally squinted his curved eyes and said: “Second Sister, guess how much fish sold today? Guess..."

The number of fish was in the heart of the grass, she deliberately frowned and tried to think, deliberately misspeculating: "Fifty? At most, sixty won't last...”

Little Rock can't help but get excited and report today's harvest: "No, no! It's one or two silver and 78 copper plates!! Oh, I've never seen so much money before. ”

The little guy impatiently pulled out a bag that had been covered in his chest, took out a silver horn and put it on the table. The family surrounded themselves and looked at the silver with a strange look.

Little Grass wonders: “Little Lotus, Rock, did you have to meet a lot of money this time? More generous than the fat golden man in the morning. One or two silver for a reward? ”

Little rock beautifully touched the crushed silver, only one stitch left in his eye: "Second sister, what do you mean by big money? Food? ”

Xiao Lian glanced at him and said: “Let me tell you something. As soon as we got to the pier, we met the son of the county master, and he still thinks of me as you. Master Wu picked up at the pier, tasted our bad fish, thought it tasted good, packed a few more copies. He came out in a hurry, he didn't bring loose money, he didn't bring a page or anything around, so he gave him this silver horn. I said I couldn't find it. He picked up the boat, so we couldn't find it. ”

“Hey, five shitty fish sold a tael of silver. It would be nice to meet such a big wrongdoer every day!” Little Rock doesn't know where to hear the word "unjust head”, which is quite appropriate.

Liu Shi scolded: "Little greedy! You are lucky to meet two generous rich people in a row today. It's a good thing you dropped pies in the sky. How can you do that every day? This silver horn, I'll keep it for you. In a few days, when you went to town to study, you just handed it over! ”

The first month of the bundle landed, the little stones were happier, and the mess lasted half the night without sleeping.

After dinner, Little Grass dragged Liu and Xiao Lian and handled them to make blood and intestines. She chopped the already clotted pig blood with a knife, burned a large bowl of white broth with various ingredients, put it in the pig's blood after it cooled, and added shallots to stir evenly. Then fill into the washed pig's small intestine and tie it up with wire. The pig's small intestine was left behind by small grasses, without halogenating the Liu family.

Filled blood and intestines, boiled in fresh water, then slowly stewed for a minute, soaked in cold water, then removed the line to eat. Blood and bowel irrigation methods are relatively simple, and the good and bad taste depends on the formulation of the seasoning in the white broth. However, Liu and Xiaolian are both frequently swinging by the pot table, and will soon be able to master the proportions of the formula.

Before bed, he drank twice as much soul stone water and slept beautifully. The next day, the grass felt refreshed and his fatigue swept away. Today we bring more food, in addition to halogenated pork heads, pig colon, blood intestines, and a hundred bad fish.

Two or three hundred dock workers were also carrying cargo at the lowest point on the dock, according to Little Grass. Grandpa Liu, who listened to the noodles, said that February and March were the busiest months on the pier, and that most businesses in La Moon and New Year did not take delivery. On the one hand, it was New Year's Eve, and on the other hand, shallow sea ice was frozen in the north, making it difficult for sea boats to navigate. So in February and March, when the weather warmed up, merchants built up a winter shipment and started shipping north to south.

Her meat and vegetables are delicious and inexpensive and will never be sold!

“Grass, Dad, go to your Uncle Champ's house and borrow a trolley. We'll go to the pier together today!” Yuhai saw the halibut and the bad fish, loaded with two baskets, the weight was not light, afraid to tire the two children, proposed.

Little Grass was talking to Little Tianshi in her heart: "Little Tangyuan, do you hear me? ”

Sleep, leave me alone!] Xiaotong Tianshi does not have a good air tunnel.

“Just for a moment, ask, can my father's leg walk long now?” Grass asked with some concern.

Xiaotong Tianshi hummed, "His legs, muscles and bones have grown well, he is active and helps him recover. Rest assured, going to the pier is fine.

Liu Shi's side was worried: “Is your leg okay? I thought it was a hundred days of injuries. It's less than a month, okay? ”

Yuhai kicked his left leg and said: “My own leg is clear. As long as I don't do too heavy work, I should be fine. Pushing two baskets, just walking, not hindering..."

At his insistence, the Liu family had to let him go. When she left, she repeatedly told Grass to push her father more, don't let him get tired...

The trolley is a wooden wheelbarrow, and Yuhai hangs the rope from the handle on his shoulder, firmly gripping the handle with his big hand, steadily pushing the trolley forward. Don't look at him limping, beating the length of his leg, one step is equivalent to two or three steps of grass! Grass, don't say help with the cart. She'll be fine if she keeps up.

After working tirelessly for almost a month at home, the bones were rusty, and now I can finally help, and I'm naturally full of strength. He turned around and looked at his panting daughter, stopping and laughing: “Come on up, Dad, push you away! ”

Little grass shook her head. “Dad, I can go myself! Your legs aren't all right yet, and you're pushing the car and the halibut..."

Before she finished, she was lifted up by one of her father's arms and placed on a unicycle. Although he wore it for most of the year, he was also hugged several times by his father, and could be tucked up under his armpit and slipped away for the first time. Little grass was a little embarrassed to look around and see if anyone saw it.

“Hey, you weigh a little, can you still tire your dad? Grass, you've got to eat more. You've got a bone on you, not much meat!” Yuhai nagged painfully and blamelessly, thinking about selling today's halibut and buying the children some white rice noodles to go back to. Kids can't eat coarse bread with them all the time when they're growing up...

There was a daddy escort, Grass walked for a while and got in the car and let Daddy push for a while. While resting on the road, she graciously massaged Daddy's left leg, allowing Xiao Tianshi to quickly relieve his fatigue. By the time we get to the pier, it's too early.

“Morning, Grandpa Liu!” Grass greeted this gracious gentle old man with a smile. In the past few days, she had a good business, inevitably someone had “red-eye sickness”, especially those selling small vegetables and stir-fried vegetables, and from time to time, the grass was regarded as not hearing, lazy to compare with them. Grandpa Liu was the only one who had been kind to her from the beginning. She moved the stool enthusiastically every time, giving her two brothers rest.

Old Liu Liu, who was trying to rub the noodles, looked up and looked at him. “Little grass, you're early today, aren't you tired? Come sit down and rest for a while. Didn't Little Rock come with you today? ”

“No! My dad came with me today!” Little Grass pointed at Yuhai, who parked her unicycle on the side of the road, and smiled.

Old Li Li looked at Yuhai, limping and walking away. His heart flashed: No wonder he had two young children come to sell things. Turns out the children's father's legs...

“Grass's father, come sit down and rest, take so many roads, are you tired?” Grandma Liu came out of the shed and greeted her warmly.

As soon as Yuhai was stunned, he smiled and thanked him: "Thank you! You're Grandpa Liu and Grandma Liu, right? Thanks for taking care of me. Thank you. Thank you. ”

“For what? Little Grass brothers can do it. Since she arrived, my noodle business has been much better!” Old Liu wiped his hands and shouted.

He was right. There was nothing good on the pier before. Most dock workers brought their own food from home. At most, a few people came together to buy some salted vegetables to eat. Most people, they don't come this way.

Ever since Little Grass's penny meat dish rang in the dock worker, many people bought meat dishes and bought a bowl of hot soup noodles at the noodle stand next to them. Eating a bowl of noodles with meat vegetables is much more moisturizing than dried food that is difficult to swallow. Not to mention the noodle stall, even the business of selling buns next door is good. But those who sell pickled vegetables hate itching.
