Chapter 96, Double Ninth Festival (4 updates)

These days Hengyi helped the Han family harvest millet. He is young and strong and has a good job in work.

The Han family has many members, so it is easy to work.

He didn't say anything, but he didn't allow Han Qiao to wash vegetables and clothes. All of them were asked by Aunt Zhao to wash them.

Han Qiao thought that if she was not well maintained, the disease would be caused in the future, so she slowly relaxed. However, she washed the wedding dress with warm water and dried it by herself, folded it and stored it.

September 9th, Double Ninth Festival, climbing high.

It was very early in the morning, Hengyi and Han Qiao took their three children to climb the mountain. They climbed to the top of the mountain and looked at the winding mountain road at the foot of the mountain. The village turned into small ants.

The family suddenly looked at each other and laughed.

They didn't go back empty-handed, and they cut a lot of firewood, dug calamus from the mountain stream, and picked chrysanthemums on the roadside.

This is the time when chrysanthemums are blooming. Pick the chrysanthemums and wash them clean and dry them for a few days. After drying, it is made into a pillow. It is fragrant and pleasant.

Wash it and steam it again and then dry it. Drink more chrysanthemum tea to clear the liver and improve eyesight, and can also clear heat and eliminate fire.

"Mom, let's pick chrysanthemums every day in the future." Sun Ke whispered.

She walked down the mountain very quickly. It was the first time that the little girl went up the mountain and was very curious about everything.

"No need, we can ask the children in the village to pick them. They grew up in the village, and they know much more clearly where there are wild chrysanthemums."

This thing is not valuable at all, and many people cut it back and feed it to pigs.

When I got home, Aunt Zhao had already steamed a pot of glutinous rice cake.

Glutinous rice cake is also called Chongyang cake.

Just put a layer of brown sugar in the middle of the glutinous rice flour, which tastes sweet and glutinous.

Han Qiao asked her to add some dried red dates, which tasted even better.

"Hengyi."

Han Qiao shouted.

Hengyi was in the woodshed and piled up the firewood.

The firewood is still a little smaller, and the charcoal is only a little bit after burning the fire, and the charcoal is not burned at all in winter.

Hengyi thought that when he came back from hunting, he would go into the mountain to burn a few nests of charcoal.

I specially pick big firewood to burn it until winter to keep warm.

"Here you come." Heng Yi responded and hurried over.

"You should wash it quickly and give your parents a Chongyang cake. When you go to the town, you can get some wine and buy a kilo of malt sugar."

When he heard that he went to Heng's house, Hengyi's face was not very good.

He doesn't want to go.

"Hengyi, there is nothing we can do unless they do it too much, and they have cut off relations with them after the tribe, and will never interact with each other."

"The Heng family is greedy for money, and this is easy to deal with. When you go back this time, you will also tell them about hunting in the mountains, but you must make the danger the most serious. It is up to them to decide whether to go or not."

"Go and clean up quickly, go and go early, we will wait for you to come back for lunch."

It is a bit far from Xishan Village to Ninghe Town, but it is only possible to walk.

Hengyi rode a horse very fast, it took more than an hour to go.

"Yeah!" Heng Yi responded in a muffled voice.

Han Qiao followed him into the house, helped him wipe his back, and found clean clothes.

"After you send it, go buy some fresh pork, let's make steamed pork to eat at night."

Hengyi nodded.

Before leaving, he kissed Han Qiao heavily and almost suffocated her.

When he let Han Qiao go, he wiped his thick fingers on Han Qiao's lips before riding out with his stuff.

Han Qiao stood there and laughed for a while.

I underestimate this stupid person.

Aunt Zhao steamed several Chongyang cakes. Grandpa liked to eat these sweet and glutinous things, but Han Qiao and Milk didn't let him eat more.

It will not be difficult to digest if you eat too much.

Han Qiao sent one back to the Han family, and half of her uncles' houses were there. She built a house early in the morning, and several cousins ​​came to help, and Han Qiao also sent half of her.

People in the countryside don’t make such things to eat.

Glutinous rice and sugar are all good things, let alone red dates.

Hengyi arrived in Ninghe Town, went to the shop to make wine and buy brown sugar.

"How much does it cost per pound?"

"Fifteen articles." Heng Yi said.

There is also a better wine of 50 cents per pound, and brown sugar is cheaper than malt sugar.

Two pounds of wine and two pounds of brown sugar, Hengyi took it to Heng's house.

Mrs. Heng didn't even think Hengyi would come. When she saw him coming with something, she was surprised and happy.

He took it with a smile, "Is it A Qiao who asked you to send it?"

"Um."

Heng Yi replied lightly, "Where are the big brother and the others?"

"I'm helping Zhenniang do work. Do you know that Zhenniang is going to get married."

“…”

Hengyi is not interested in this.

"Do you know who she is going to marry?" The Heng Mama blinked at Heng Yi, "Sun Yiming."

Hengyi had no idea about this.

No matter who she marrys, what does it have to do with him?

"Sun Yiming has made a lot of money recently. It is said that he bought his two acres of land."

Hengyi didn't want to listen to these nonsense, "Go and call your elder brother and the others back, and go hunting in the mountains in a few days, and go back and forth for about five or six days, and you can only cost ten taels of silver per person."

"What?" Mrs. Heng widened her eyes as soon as she heard this.

"I, I, I'll shout now."

The one who left Heng was so fast.

Dingdeng went to the next door and shouted to his sons, "Go home quickly, there is something big, it's a big deal."

Sun Yiming came out of the house.

He was beaten by Han Qiao that day and his nose was bruised and his face was swollen. After several days of care, he still didn't get rid of it.

In fact, he didn't really want to call Heng's family to do their jobs, but Zhenniang said that Heng's family was reliable.

He took the work of copying books from Manager Xie, but in fact he didn't copy a few books at all.

To the outside world, I have made a lot of money, but it is just a pretext.

After Heng Dalang and the others came back, Hengyi talked about the hunting incident in the mountains.

The danger is also serious.

But for the four brothers of the Heng family, silver is more important than anything else.

With these ten taels of silver, the house can be built and more acres of wasteland can be bought.

"Okay, I'll call you in a few days."

Hengyi left after saying that.

Mrs. Heng didn't keep him for dinner either.

Hengyi would not stay for dinner.

He went to the street market, picked up the meat and bought two more pig heads.

He heard Han Qiao say that braised pork head meat was delicious, and he was a little greedy.

Hengyi went to buy a few kilograms of malt sugar.

Seeing the money in the purse getting less and less, Heng Yi frowned slightly.

He didn't even want to ask Han Qiao for money.

I didn't think about finding Hehong to settle the profits for August.

I only earned a hundred taels of silver in a month, and I got dozens of taels after all kinds of expenses.

There is little difference between settlement or settlement.

Hengyi thought so and ran very fast on his horse.

It was still early to arrive in Xishan Village.

When Han Qiao saw that he had bought a lot of meat, she quickly washed it and sliced ​​it into a steamer.

Put sweet potatoes and pumpkins below, and slices of meat mixed with flour on top.

Cook another pot of white rice porridge.

After steaming, they are all my favorites.

Sweet potatoes, pumpkins are sweet, and steamed meat is melted in the mouth.

Grandpa looked at Han Qiao and said, "Big granddaughter, let's make this food tomorrow."

"good."

Han Qiao smiled and replied.

After lunch, Han Qiao was not idle either. The two pig heads were burned, cleaned, and broke them. He took out the pig's brain marrow, blanched the pig heads and put them in a pot, and added spices, soy sauce, and salt to cook.

When the smell comes out, it smells so good that Grandma doesn't shout anymore.

The cat also meowed with Han Qiao.

The two pig heads were braised, and Han Qiao's family sent a bowl and brought back a lot of pumpkins and sweet potatoes.

At night, they braised pork head, white rice, and braised pork brain.

Pig ears, pig tongue, grandma's teeth are not very good, so he can chew some food slowly.

The whole family was very satisfied and they were all over.

The third child also performed a singing program, and Han Qiao was the most supportive and applauded them.

Then others applauded.

The three children are so embarrassed.

Sun Kele sang it alone again, and Han Qiao beat her.

It was also a happy, happy and fulfilling Double Ninth Festival.
