Chapter 71 Busy
The dozens of chickens that were fed at home last year have become old hens this year.
Grandma has paid more than thirty chicks in the past two months, and she is chirping in the backyard every day.
When my uncle Yao Jiazhong comes back to get the chicken, he has to start with the old hen given to Zhou Yan.
When he went to the county town last time, he brought six old hens to Zhou Yan to replenish his wife Tong.
A few days ago, when he saw Zhou Yan running around in the sky, Tong wanted to replenish it and killed a stewed soup.
Unexpectedly, the fragrance spreads ten miles!
Zhou Yan lived in the yamen's yard. Because he was a captain, he gave him a small three small courtyard with a covered room.
The families close to the yamen are all rich, or they have power, and the public residence in the yard is just between the two.
Look, the fragrance of chicken soup drifts with the wind, making the people behind them smell it and drool.
A family named Qin is in a silk business and is said to have some relatives with an adult in the city.
Isn't this a guest? When the guests smelled this smell, they kept asking what delicious food it was.
How could Mr. Qin answer this? His kitchen and the yard where guests entertained guests are two differently. It is impossible for him to smell here.
Then there is only the next yamen.
I quickly sent someone to inquire and found Zhou Yan's house along with the taste.
It just so happened that Zhou Yan came back from the yamen and heard about this. He treated it as a favor. An old hen was not a big deal.
Others are not ignorant people, and they are now given half a tael of silver and have a clear relationship.
Unexpectedly, I still wanted to eat that flavor, so Mr. Qin asked the servants to buy dozens of them as favors.
Old hens are not expensive things, they are also for a fresh taste.
Tong told the truth that this was given to her by relatives from the countryside to nourish her body. There is no one now, but I can ask them and give them a few eggs for the person who is speaking to taste them.
This way of giving eggs is to allow the person who responds to the question to make a good thing. These eggs are usually in the hands of others.
As the saying goes, the King of Hell is easy to say, but the little ghost is difficult to deal with. The servants of rich families cannot offend them.
Sometimes, it is often a small person who can achieve your great things.
If this is true, the servant is also a human being. He also took out the eggs and showed his face in front of the master when he received the reward.
The Qin family came to buy old hens, and the number was large, so the only way to ask Yao Jiazhong to go back to Xinghua Village.
An old hen can sell for 70 cents in the town, but Yao Jiazhong bought more than 10 cents and 80 cents per village.
There are three-month eggs, plus the village’s own home, there are three hundred, fifty old hens, and two other roosters to give Zhou Yan.
This time, the Yao grandmother fed her, in addition to the New Year and the eggs, sold a total of thirty pieces, worth 20 to 400 cents.
Two hundred eggs, six hundred coins. With these three taels of silver, you can buy a lot of things for the New Year.
This time, Yao Jiazhong asked Zhou Yan to sell an old hen for 100 coins and an egg for 5 coins. At first, Zhou Yan disagreed, but later mentioned that he had to help during the New Year in the back alley, so he agreed.
In fact, I only earned a tael of silver. Don’t underestimate this little money, but it can be enough for a family of three like Zhou Yan to spend three months.
Nowadays, everyone in the Yao family has to work hard. The six brothers practice martial arts every morning, go to the school hall, and have to go up the mountain to chop firewood during bedtime.
There are many people in the family, and I need a lot of firewood to boil water and wash every morning and make three meals a day.
At the same time, rice poles and dry leaves can also be used for burning fire, so the Yao family’s wooden shed is piled with valley poles and leaves.
Grandpa also had to take the six brothers up the mountain to find the tree farm, which was the kind that died or left behind by cutting down trees.
Dig out the tree house, slap the soil, carry it home, and let it dry. It can be used as a fire in winter.
It is necessary to light it when it is to burn it, and use ashes to extinguish it when it is not burned. Such a tree farm can burn it for about ten nights.
It is also a way to save firewood.
Grandma is now devoted to her chicken feeding business, and her monthly household income is now all thanks to the chickens.
In addition to cutting the old leaves of the vegetables finely every day, the rice bran is also ground and fed with vegetable worms.
Worried about the occurrence of chicken plague, Ning Yue sprinkled some water from the spirit pond into the chicken trough from time to time. This is also one of the secrets for the good taste of chicken soup.
In addition to cooking and cleaning the house, my sister-in-law was also making clothes. Ning Yue drew some clothing pictures.
Some modifications have been made to the existing clothing and abide by the laws of this era. It is impossible to have some unique and unique costumes, unless you don’t want to live anymore.
For example, with the top and bottom clothes, Ning Yue drew a dress.
No one wears skirts here, and no one can wear any of them.
Ning Yue just made her usual cloth skirt into a dress with small cuffs, waist-retracted, and a large lower sway.
The slanted clothes were originally tied with a strap, but instead tied with a strap inside and made of cloth strips on the outside to make it more convenient and beautiful.
The man also made some modifications and added tethers at different positions to make it more intimate.
I just changed the basics slightly from the current foundation. I really see that I wear straight clothes and straight pants every day, but it is not warm and ugly.
Each person made a cotton vest, raised the collar, windproof and warm, and made it straight.
Of course, this is also what you wear normally. If you are working in the fields, it is better to wear the same style.
In general, Ning Yue comes in as it is convenient.
When I saw it snowing, my grandfather came back covered in snowflakes, steaming his head, and rubbing his handboard.
This reminds me of a modern watermelon with ear hat and cotton gloves.
A woman stayed at home to make this. It was easier to wear a hat and a more difficult glove. Later, she made it into a modern handful of gripping gloves.
The ratio to the five fingers is a little worse, and it is better to have one than not.
The family is really not bad at cloth and cotton, and everyone has a set of them, including Lin Qing.
This is really a useful thing. The third sister-in-law looked at her grandmother, thinking that she was doing something for her parents' parents and asked someone to take her.
Of course, grandma has no objection. A filial child is better than a filial child. It is not that she cannot afford such cloth and cotton. The open-minded grandma never cares about such things.
Two days later, Aunt Tang, Aunt Yu, and Aunt Zhong came to visit the house.
Everyone was holding needle and thread baskets, and the generous Aunt Zhong said to her grandmother happily: "If you don't have anything to do, don't you go to the Three Treasures Palace. Do you know what our old sisters are doing?"
Grandma poured hot water for everyone, and my sister-in-law put on the steamed cakes and small mozzarellas she made at home.
Seeing the ceramic cups and plates on the table, the few people's eyes shone brightly. The Yao family was really willing to buy such fine things.
Aunt Yu: "I'm so happy again. Who did this? My hands are so clever. It looks really good to put it on this plate."
Grandma: "What a coincidence, some of their sisters-in-law brought Xiaoyu to do whatever they wanted."
Another aunt: "I see your jade family. I don't know which family has the blessing in the future."
Grandma answered: "It's still early, so let's talk about it. Now there are six boys in the family who are going to school."
This means that I have not prepared a dowry for my sister-in-law yet, and I am not going to say kinship now.
Everyone talks and laughs before they talk about hats.
This is not a technical job. If you look at something you can do for a few seconds and say it, it is also a respect for you.
Grandma also taught everyone with ease.
The parents of the family, the families of the family have sex, the families of the family have sex, three women have sex, there are more than a dozen in the house, and you can imagine the lively scene.
