The Lucky Farmgirl has a Pocket Dimension
Chapter 19 Preparations
Zhao Zhitong, who 'beat' the invincible opponent in the village, was standing on the branch of the tree, hugging the tree trunk, he was very happy, and he didn't maintain that embarrassing little expression for a minute.
The voice of Sun Mei gnashing her teeth came from a distance: "Zhao Zhitong! Climbing a tree for me again!"
"Ah!" Zhao Zhitong yelled, and hurriedly climbed down from the tree: "My mother called me, I have to go first, we will fight another day."
After finishing speaking, he ran away with short legs.
Sun Mei led Zhao Zhitong home, closed the door, and scolded angrily: "You are very impressive, aren't you?"
As soon as she came out of the village head's house, she heard people in the village talking about her daughter, saying that there was a big fight in the village.
When she arrived in a hurry, she saw a group of radish heads under the tree, and Zhao Zhitong was standing on the tree, like a monkey king, so majestic, she just wanted to cover her face.
"Girls are from every family. How can you not look like a girl at all? If the reputation spreads, who will dare to marry you when you grow up?"
Zhao Zhitong didn't think there was anything wrong at all, pouted and said in a coquettish voice, "Many people are married."
Every time I play house with my friends, they all vie for her to be the bride.
Sun Mei: "..."
At this time, Zhao Dong also came back from Butcher Zhao's house. When he opened the door, he saw his wife and baby girl confronting each other, and asked, "What's the matter?"
Angrily, Sun Mei put Zhao Zhitong into Zhao Dong's arms, and said angrily: "Your daughter, I can't control it anymore, you can manage it yourself."
Then he told how Zhao Zhitong "killed the Quartet" at the head of the village.
"Yo!" Zhao Dong listened with a little pride on his face: "Girl, you are so powerful, you are awesome! You have the demeanor of your father and me back then."
Sun Mei: "..."
Zhao Zhitong looked adoring: "Wow, Dad, were you also good at climbing trees when you were young?"
Zhao Dong immediately began to show off: "That's not true, the whole school is no match for me, I think back then..."
Sun Mei was speechless: "Zhao Dong!"
You are good enough to let you educate your children, and you are even bragging.
Seeing his daughter-in-law's face, Zhao Dong restrained himself instantly, changed the subject quickly, and put on a serious look: "Cough, but it's the worst, I still have to listen to your mother, and I won't be able to climb trees anymore, otherwise , Daddy is going to spank your little ass."
Zhao Zhitong hugged Zhao Dong's neck coquettishly: "Okay, Tongtong listens to mother."
When Sun Mei entered the kitchen, Zhao Dong put Zhao Zhitong down, pinched her little face and said, "Baby is awesome, go and play by yourself, father and mother will send tofu to your uncles' house."
After saying that, Sun Mei came out of the kitchen carrying the divided tofu.
...
In addition to sending a few good neighbors, Sun Mei also brought a few bowls of bean curd to the well in the village.
There are often many villagers gathered there to chat, and she will give everyone a taste of the food, which can be regarded as a wave of free advertising.
It was almost dark when she came back.
Zhao Dong has already started cooking in the kitchen. Although his skills are not very good, he can cook porridge and warm up steamed buns.
When Sun Mei came back, the porridge was already cooked, and she started to stir-fry two dishes. One fried bean curd residue, one garlic spinach.
After a day, the vegetables in the vegetable garden are ready to eat, and this water spinach is picked from the vegetable garden.
They call it Yongcai here, and it is a very common vegetable that is grown in almost every household’s vegetable garden.
Originally, Sun Mei's cooking skills were good, but I don't know if it was an illusion, but the water spinach that night felt more refreshing and delicious than the ones I ate before.
The refreshing water spinach, with the fragrance of minced garlic, the taste is simply unique, and the family is very satisfied.
Zhao Dong praised without hesitation: "Daughter-in-law, your cooking skills are getting better and better."
Zhao Zhitong also touched his chubby belly, and the food cooked by his mother-in-law was delicious.
Because tofu will start selling the day after tomorrow, so tonight, after the two of them had dinner, they started making preparations.
Zhao Dong first moved out a large tank from the grocery room, which was originally used to store grain.
Scrub it clean, and it can be used to soak beans. The tank is quite big, with a height of more than one meter, and it can soak two beans weighing less than a hundred catties at a time.
On the first day of selling, there was no standard. What Zhao Dong meant was to soak 50 catties of beans first to test the water.
By the time everything was done, it was already late. Zhao Dong and Sun Mei hurriedly washed up and went to sleep.
The next morning, before dawn, the two got up early. Zhao Dong first took advantage of the early morning to fill the two large tanks in the yard with water.
Then, together with Sun Mei, they packed the soaked beans in sacks and carried them onto the cart.
For the convenience of transportation, we can only pack it in sacks first, and then just add water when we get to the mill. Anyway, the mill is next to the river.
Sun Mei also put several large wooden barrels on the cart, and after fixing them, Zhao Dong pushed them out the door.
Walk all the way to the village, cross the bridge, walk along the river for a while, and you will arrive at the mill.
The mill was built very close to the river, diverted water into the channel, and with the help of the force of the water, it could rotate day and night and grind a lot of flour.
Next to the mill, there is also a water mill room, which is turning 'squeaky' to shell the rice for the farmers.
Both the water mill and the water mill house were built by the Wei gentry's family in Xiaoyi Village. They are the only water mills in the surrounding villages.
Wei's squire's house is the ancestral home of the Wei family. There have been several scholars in his family's ancestors. In this generation, one of them is a county magistrate. In this area, the Wei family is considered a big family.
Now the head of the Wei family, Mr. Wei has not read much, but he has high hopes for the juniors. The private school where Sun Mei cooks is built by the Wei family for the children in the family to study.
The person in charge of the water mill is a middle-aged man. Seeing Zhao Dong coming with a cart, he greeted him warmly.
Seeing that he was going to grind wet beans, he was a little surprised, but he didn't say anything.
Zhao Dong asked about the price and output. I learned that he is billed by the hour, two pennies an hour, and 50 catties of beans can be ground in one morning.
Zhao Dong did some calculations, and it was a good deal, so he paid the deposit.
"What's your name?" The middle-aged man asked as he took out an account book.
"Zhao Dong."
"Yes." The middle-aged man took a brush and wrote a line of characters. Zhao Dong saw from the corner of his eye that they were all in traditional Chinese characters, some of which he didn't recognize.
But it can be roughly guessed that he should have written down his name, what kind of grain he grinded, and how much deposit he paid.
In the end, the middle-aged man asked Zhao Dong to press his fingerprints and let him go back. Before Zhao Dong left, he also told him that he had to pull it in the middle, otherwise the wooden barrels might not be enough.
Zhao Dong nodded and readily agreed, it is very convenient to just stop by without guarding here. After thanking him, he pulled the car back.
