Dong Biyu held Mo Ziyuan, and Li Changyu not only held Li Linyu, but also carried a backpack on his shoulders.
Li Changfeng and his wife Guo Minying were not empty-handed either. Li Changfeng also carried a basket on his shoulders. Although Guo Minying did not carry a basket, she had a basket on the crook of her arm, and the basket was covered with a piece of blue cloth.
Li Genshun is the one who is empty-handed among the few people now.
Dong Biyu hugged Mo Ziwan and walked in front. As she walked, she asked Mo Ziwan, "Have you eaten yet?"
The Li family got up before dawn. After getting up, they had a simple breakfast before the light came out. When the sky got brighter, the group hurried out. Even though the distance was not close, it was still very early when they arrived at Mo's house. When I arrived early, I took a quick look at the village and saw wisps of green smoke rising from many houses.
"Eat." Mo Ziyuan responded crisply, and then took the initiative to say, "After dinner, grandma and grandpa went to the workshop. My eldest brother, brother Qingyuan, and sister Mo Li were in the house."
"Where are they?" Dong Biyu asked again.
"In the backyard, sister Mo Li and eldest brother are washing dishes and feeding the pigs, and brother Qingyuan is washing vegetables." Mo Ziyuan pointed to the backyard and said.
When Dong Biyu heard that the three children were still doing things, she would not have reacted at all if this were at home. On the contrary, she would have thought that her grandson was sensible and knew how to help the family. But now she was thinking a little differently and was thinking about the past. Help, just like in the past when the farm was busy and they were too busy, they would always come to Mo's house to help, so she immediately told Guo Minying, "Minying, go and see, what do these little kids know?" , don’t beat the baby to pieces.”
Guo Minying went up the steps under the eaves, put the basket in the crook of her hand and said, "Hey, I'll go right away." After saying that, she hurried towards the backyard.
When he came to the backyard, he saw Mo Li standing on the bench, scooping out the water for washing the pot. He walked over and took the water ladle from Mo Li's hand.
Li Qiye was startled and turned to look at his aunt. Then his fright turned into surprise and he shouted excitedly: "Auntie."
"Be good, auntie is here, you go out and take a rest."
Li Qiye didn't want to, "My aunt just came. She's tired from walking all the way, so it's time to rest."
After listening to Mo Li's heart-warming words, Guo Minying put one hand on half of Mo Li's face. She didn't want such a well-behaved baby. The family really deserves to have a bad life. "Your grandpa, grandma, and uncles are all here." , it’s just outside, go and help pack things.” Packing things is a fake, there is no rush to take out the things in the basket, the main reason for getting up so early is to help in the workshop, and the things in the basket will be waiting for the evening It’s not too late to clean up.
Every time grandma and the others came, they would bring a lot of things. Although Mo Li listened, he still listened, but he still said: "Then I will go see grandma, grandpa, uncle and the others first, and then I will clean up the stove later. "
Guo Minying said angrily: "Are you still afraid that I can't clean it up for you?"
Li Qiye hurriedly waved his hand, "No."
"No, that's fine. Okay, hurry up, your grandma and the others are waiting for you."
Mo Li had no choice but to agree, but he still walked to the door leading to the backyard and shouted outside: "Brother Qingyuan, eldest brother, grandpa, grandma, uncles, and aunt are here."
Qingyuan was standing by the well. After hearing this, he put the last bunch of vegetables into the big basket nearby and drained the water. "I've finished washing too. Have you finished washing the dishes? After washing, go to the front yard. Grandpa and grandma are not at home, so we can't." We can’t keep grandpa and the others waiting for too long.”
Listening to Murong Qingyuan's words, Guo Minying sighed in her heart, saying that her in-laws and aunts had indeed lived a very hard life before, but now not only are their lives better, but the children in the family are also more sensible than the other.
Needless to say, Wan Wan, but Mo Li and Qing Yuan, both of them picked up two babies outside casually and came back smarter than their own biological children.
After Murong Qingyuan's words, Mo Li turned his head back and looked at Guo Minying who was already standing by the stove, "Auntie is in the stove, helping me wash the pot!"
Murong Qingyuan didn't hear the voices in the room just now, so naturally he didn't know about Guo Minying coming to the kitchen. Now when he heard Mo Li say, he frowned slightly, "Why did you ask aunt to wash the dishes? "
Li Qiye was a little aggrieved. Just as he was about to explain, he heard Guo Minying behind him.
He said loudly: "I'm here to help, Qingyuan, don't blame Mo Li."
While Murong Qingyuan was talking, he had already gone to the kitchen door. When he stood at the door, he shouted: "Auntie."
Guo Minying saw Murong Qingyuan and asked, "Is it cold?"
How could it not be cold, but he still replied: "It's not cold!"
At this time, Li Linsong came over carrying a wooden bucket, "Mom!"
Just now she was laughing at Li Linyu for gaining weight. Guo Minying now looked at her son. Like Linyu, he had gained a lot of weight and was wearing new clothes. It seemed that he was well-fed and well-dressed in the Mo family. Compared with the two of them, Wan Wan is really much thinner.
Seeing that her son is growing up well, Guo Minying is grateful to Song Nanzhi and Mo Tingyu, and she also wants to let Li Linsong stay in the Mo family for a longer period of time. Food and clothing don't matter much, but what she thinks more about is the Mo family's baby. A person who is sensible, smart, and polite. In addition to Mo Li, Wan Wan and Qing Yuan can also read. After being with them for a long time, his son will definitely become much smarter. "Have the pigs been fed yet?"
"Just pour the washing water out of the pot and it'll be fine," Li Linsong said.
"I'll be there later, you guys go and have a rest."
Naturally, Li Linsong would not be polite to his own mother, and responded simply: "Okay." After saying that, he put the wooden bucket in his hand at Guo Minying's feet so that she could scoop out the water for washing the pot and put it away. After getting the barrel, he was ready to turn around and leave.
"Wait a minute." Murong Qingyuan pulled him, "Go and wash your hands before going out."
Li Linsong had no choice but to turn around and walk back to the well, but he still said: "I didn't touch the pig food, and my hands are not dirty."
"Then you have to wash it!" Murong Qingyuan also walked to the well, scooped out a ladle of water from the bucket on the side, and slowly poured it on Li Linsong's hand. This is why he would rather wash vegetables in the cold by the well. I don't want to wash dishes and feed pigs. Washing dishes is cleaner than feeding pigs, and there is no smell.
Guo Minying also urged: "Hurry up and wash your hands with your Qingyuan brother. Why don't you pay attention to hygiene at such an old age?" If this were in her own room, Guo Minying would definitely not say anything, and it would not necessarily be said that she had fed pigs. There weren't many people in the whole village who knew how to wash their hands. Just like Li Linsong said, their hands hadn't touched pig food, so they were clean, so there was nothing to wash.
But this is in the Mo family. Wan Wan has been studying since she was a child and is very particular about it. Aunt Song and Uncle Mo rely on her in everything, spoil her and follow her in being particular.
But she didn't expect that the extra child in the family would be as particular as Wan Wan. But when I think about how well he reads, I think that all scholars must be so particular!
As long as it was related to reading, Guo Minying also wanted Li Linsong to learn more from him.
After Li Linsong washed his hands, Murong Qingyuan looked at Mo Li again, "Mo Li, come and wash your hands too."
"Oh!" Li Li also walked over.
After washing their hands, the three of them walked towards the front yard. Naturally, when you come to the front yard, you need to say hello. After waiting for a few people to finish greeting, Guo Minying waved her hand and came to the front yard with water in her hands. She arrived before anyone arrived and said, "Everything in the kitchen has been tidied up. "
Dong Biyu was still holding Mo Ziwan, and after hearing her daughter-in-law's voice, she immediately said, "Just pack up and leave. I'm afraid the workshop is very busy now."
Afterwards, Li Linsong walked in front and led a group of people towards the workshop.
The workshop is already busy. Li Youcai and Li Hualin were chopping meat with Li Youshu who didn't know what to do.
The workshop is open today, so of course we have to make some luncheon meat. One is to eat some at noon so that everyone in the village can taste what luncheon meat tastes like, and the other is to have meat for sale in the shop tomorrow.
It is said to be a workshop, but it is actually a large kitchen. The room where Liu Youcai and the three of them are staying is specially used for chopping meat. There is a large chopping board in the row, but this chopping board is made of bricks and covered with a large smooth bluestone slab. .
The three of them rolled up their sleeves and stood in front of the chopping board. There was a large dark brown log in front of them. The wooden pole was about half a foot long. On it was the meat to be chopped today. Each person had a kitchen knife and was cutting the meat. Cut the meat, chop the meat, chop the meat.
In the room next to the three of them, there was Li Zhicui and others. In addition to a large chopping board, there was also a long stove opposite the chopping board.
There were three large black woks, two of which were already emitting white smoke. There is a large wooden shelf placed in the corner that is level with the stove. On the upper shelf are several-story bamboo steamers, and on the lower shelf are wooden basins and other items.
In the room, Li Zhicui, Chen Herong, Du Chunxia, Zhang Yunhua, and He Guixiang were busy preparing for today's meal, washing vegetables, chopping vegetables, and lighting a fire.
Next door to them are Song Nanzhi and Yu Silian.
What is different from the room where Li Youcai, Li Zhicui and others are staying is that the doors and windows of the room where they are staying are tightly closed. Not only are the doors and windows tightly closed, there is no stove in the room, only a long On the bluestone table, there are porcelain basins and bowls of various sizes, as well as cutting boards, kitchen knives, bottles and cans for cooking. In addition, there are two wide openings in the middle of the table. There were large jars, one of which had some white powder stuck to the edge. On the wall facing the stand was a row of locked cabinets.
I heard Song Nanzhi say: "It's like a dream!"
Yu Silian also felt the same way, "It's not like a dream." followed by another sentence, "But our dream has come true." In front of her was a porcelain basin the size of a small pot, which contained the contents of There was red sweet potato starch scooped out from the jar in the middle of the table. At this time, she was mixing the red sweet potato starch, salt and other seasonings with water.
Yu Silian was mixing the seasonings for the luncheon meat, while Song Nanzhi was finely mincing the ginger and garlic.
During the days when the workshop was being built, not only Han Shuxian was not idle, but he was also planning everything from the arrangements for the workshop construction to the marketing of the luncheon meat after it was made. Even Song Nanzhi and Yu Silian were not idle either.
Song Nanzhi mainly sells luncheon meat every day to promote the name of luncheon meat. Yu Silian was thinking about the taste.
Up to now, many improvements have been made in terms of taste. Not only is the taste getting better and better, but now garlic-flavored and spicy luncheon meats are also introduced.
To make spicy lunch meat, you have to rely on Mo Ziyuan's casual words. One day, after eating another barbecue luncheon meat, I casually said that I wanted to eat sweet luncheon meat.
She said it casually, but Yu Silian, who was planning to do a good job in the luncheon meat business, listened. I quickly thought that Fengyuan Restaurant consumes tens of kilograms of lunch meat every day. Why is this? At first, she thought it was just because other restaurants didn't have luncheon meat. If their restaurant had it, they would have an extra dish and earn more money. But one day I went to a restaurant for a meal and found out that they had launched several new dishes with different flavors using luncheon meat.
Although they were not a restaurant, they all had food with a single taste. After a while, delicious food would become boring, so she also thought about different tastes. After listening to Mo Ziyuan's words, she immediately tried to make sweet lunch meat. It was done, but no one wanted to eat a second piece because of the sweet taste.
Guangwei's sausages are sweet, but this lunch meat is so sweet that after one piece, you won't want to eat the second piece. After that, Mo Ziyuan didn't dare to have any sudden ideas!
Although Mo Ziyuan didn't have a sudden idea, it did give Yu Silian a lot of ideas. The sweet one didn't taste good, so she stopped making it, but the spicy one she tried to make was very popular with everyone.
It's just that the spicy luncheon meat hasn't been officially put on sale yet, so I'm just waiting to make some when the workshop opens.
Song Nanzhi and Yu Silian were busy making seasonings, and Mo Tingyu and Han Shuxian were not idle either. They were checking each room one by one, including checking what was missing when everyone was working, and they would make it up when the time comes.
