Chapter 64 Recording Peppers
Chapter 64 Recording Pepper
Now Zhao Yunlan comes to the Liu family's small courtyard every day to take care of the peppers and record the daily conditions. Old Mrs. Liu looked at the planting records written by Zhao Yunlan and was very curious, and asked: "Ms. Zhao, why do you need to record the records every day?"
I don’t see any difference in these things every day!”
Zhao Yunlan explained: "I have never grown this kind of pepper before, and it comes from overseas. I want to record it this time so that I can have a reference for future plantings. Well, I also ask Mrs. Liu to allow me to stay here."
While waiting for the results of this pepper, I can make a complete record."
Old Mrs. Liu smiled: "Okay, then I will let you record it completely and show it to me as soon as you finish it."
Zhao Yunlan responded happily.
The pepper seedlings were basically standing still now, and every pepper plant was glowing with vitality. Zhao Yunlan was in a good mood. After washing his hands, he noticed that Mrs. Liu had also prepared soap for herself to wash her hands with.
Zhao Yunlan remembered that shopkeeper Wu said that this soap sold well in Fucheng.
The idea that Zhao Yunlan had before came up again, that is, to make this ancient soap. If you have an idea, you have to start it. After leaving the Liu family courtyard, Zhao Yunlan went to the market to buy suet, thinking
I haven’t eaten ribs at home for a long time, so I bought some ribs back.
Zhao Yunlan drove the bullock cart back to Lijiacun. Zhao Yunlan asked for the bullock cart from Old Man Li. When Li Mingren found out, he was very jealous and ran to ask Old Man Li why he wanted to use the bullock cart.
No. Old man Li just laughed, picked up the hoe and went to the ground without saying a word to Li Mingren.
When Zhao Yunlan returned home, Xiaobao was the first to run over and wanted to hug him. Zhao Yunlan was worried that the cow would hit Xiaobao, so he quickly asked Xiaobao to stop and got off the cart. Xiaobao was obedient, and Zhao Yunlan led the cow.
After entering the cowshed, I came to hold the baby.
"Mom, I learned today that 'human beings are inherently good by nature, similar in nature, and distant in habits.'" Xiaobao coquettishly acted coquettishly in Zhao Yunlan's arms.
Zhao Yunlan kissed Xiaobao's plump face and praised: "Xiaobao is so awesome. Xiaobao, guess what mommy brought to Xiaobao today."
Xiaobao pretended to think: "It's Tangtang!"
Zhao Yunlan laughed: "Xiaobao is so smart, it's Tangtang, but today's candy is Tanghulu, does Xiaobao want to eat it?"
Xiaobao nodded and kissed Zhao Yunlan several times before Zhao Yunlan took out a bunch of candied haws.
"Xiaobao, what do you want to do if you have something delicious?" Zhao Yunlan asked.
Xiaobao took the candied haws on a stick and went to the upper room: "Mother, I know it, and I want to share it. Grandma, grandma, I treat you to some candied haws on a stick."
When Xiaobao asked a circle of people and was finally able to eat happily, Li Mingren suddenly called Xiaobao sadly: "Xiaobao, you haven't asked daddy yet?"
Xiaobao opened his eyes and thought for a moment: "Dad, mother said eating sweets is bad for your teeth, so do you still want to eat them?"
Li Mingren: "Since it's not good for Yaya, then daddy will help you eat one." He took the candied haws and ate two in a row.
Xiaobao suddenly saw that two candied haws were missing. He had just asked around and no one had eaten Xiaobao's candied haws. When Li Mingren came here and said one was delicious, he ate two. Xiaobao didn't react yet and burst into tears.
He fell down first and said: "Bad daddy."
Zhao Yunlan heard Xiaobao crying and hurriedly came over to hold him and asked: "What did you do to Xiaobao?"
Li Mingren felt guilty. He put two hawthorns in his mouth and said vaguely: "I just ate his candied haws. He asked me if I would eat it."
Zhao Yunlan turned to look at Xiaobao: "Xiaobao, tell mother, have you asked daddy if he wants to eat candied haws?"
Xiaobao sobbed and nodded.
Zhao Yunlan continued: "Since Xiaobao asked, you must be sincere. If dad eats it, you can't cry. Otherwise, you shouldn't ask dad if he eats it."
Xiaobao seemed to understand, and said: "Dad said to eat one, but Xiaobao still has one, two, three, three. Woohoo~"
Zhao Yunlan hugged Xiaobao: "Daddy's words don't mean what he says. Daddy ate two, right?"
Xiaobao was buried in Zhao Yunlan's arms, nodding.
Zhao Yunlan: "Okay, don't cry anymore. If you cry anymore, the candied haws will melt. Let's ask daddy to buy one for Xiaobao next time."
Xiaobao wiped his nose and nodded.
Zhao Yunlan then glared at Li Mingren, then left the father and son to go to the kitchen.
Li Mingmei helped Zhao Yunlan cut the lard in the kitchen early. Seeing Zhao Yunlan come in, she said: "Sister-in-law, I saw that the suet was cut into half, so I cut it all. I saw that there was still a lot of lard in the vat.
, sister-in-law bought so much again this time."
Zhao Yunlan said: "This time I didn't buy it for food, this time I am useful."
Zhao Yunlan took some burned plant ashes, soaked them in water and mixed them for a while, then put them aside to soak. The cut pork suet was also put aside for the time being. Instead, she could go and see what flowers there were on the mountain. When she came back, she would pick them.
spare.
Zhao Yunlan just went ahead and took Li Mingmei up the mountain. As the weather gradually got hotter, wild flowers bloomed all over the mountains and plains, including red, yellow, white, and purple. Zhao Yunlan liked it every time she came to the mountain.
Li Mingmei: "Sister-in-law, what is the use of these flowers? They are not suitable for eating, and they have no fragrance."
The wild flowers on the mountain really have no floral fragrance, only the original grassy and woody fragrance.
Zhao Yunlan smiled: "You can just pick them. Try to choose those beautiful flowers. Pick them completely and don't damage the petals."
Li Mingmei nodded, understood.
The two sisters-in-law just walked around the mountain and brought back a basket of flowers each.
When Wang saw the two of them going up the mountain, she brought some flowers back and asked, "Yunlan, what are you using these flowers for?"
Zhao Yunlan turned around and went to the house to get the bath beans that shopkeeper Wu gave her last time, "Mom, little sister, you guys can try using this on your hands these days. It can also be used for washing clothes. It's just that it's too small. I'm afraid it will be too small for washing clothes."
not enough."
Li Mingmei: "Sister-in-law, what is this?"
Zhao Yunlan smiled: "Shopkeeper Wu gave this to me. People in Fucheng are using it. They call it bath beans."
Li Mingmei was about to wash her hands, so she took one and tried it.
Li Mingmei: "Sister-in-law, this is really clean."
Zhao Yunlan smiled and said, "I'll give you that one. Mom, take one too."
Old Man Li and Li Mingli just came back from the fields. They came over to take a look. Li Mingli said, "Sister-in-law, give me one of these good things."
Zhao Yunlan smiled and said: "There are only three in total. These three are for us girls to use first, and I will give them to you after I make them."
Li Mingmei and Li Mingli exclaimed: "Sister-in-law, you can actually do this."
Old Man Li shouted from the side: "You two, keep your voices down, I'm deafened by your shouting."
Wang said from the side: "Your voice is not louder than theirs."
Zhao Yunlan smiled mysteriously: "I don't know if I can make it yet. I'll tell you when I make it."
After being scolded by Old Man Li too many times, Li Mingren lost his memory and no longer dared to join in the fun, so he could only look around in the room silently.
