Chapter 89
Seeing that his daughter was so sensitive to food, Ye Fei couldn't help but sigh in his heart.
It seems that the little guy is just a snack and has no strong interest in learning.
But it doesn’t matter, this interest can be cultivated later in life, and An An is still early.
Kangkang raised his head when he heard Ye Fei's words, but only glanced at him, and then continued to practice calligraphy with his head down.
With this serious look, even Ye Fei couldn't help but sigh, what a good boy, he will definitely have a great future.
Jiang Yu asked curiously.
"Where did this come from?"
Ye Fei then told her everything about Dalinzi's visit just now.
After Jiang Yu heard this, he said with regret and emotion in his eyes.
"It's not easy for old Uncle Pan to support himself alone."
I remember that when she was dragging An An along alone, old Uncle Pan took good care of her.
Sometimes they even bring some food over.
Maybe it’s the sympathy that comes from sharing the same problem.
Ye Fei nodded in agreement with her words.
"How about we catch a pig and raise it?"
Looking at Ye Fei's expression, Jiang Yu asked cautiously.
After all, if you raise a pig at home, you can have meat to eat during the Chinese New Year, which gives you extra security.
Hearing this, Ye Fei agreed without looking back.
"Okay, I'll catch one and bring it back in a few days."
Jiang Yu, who expected to be rejected, didn't react for a while and didn't know what to say.
Then she saw Ye Fei coming over and stuffing food into her hand.
"Try it, old Aunt Pan's craftsmanship is really good."
The warm touch in her hands made her relax.
Jiang Yu asked in surprise.
"Are you really going to catch a pig?"
Ye Fei looked at her and smiled, and said in a rather worried tone.
"Yes, I was thinking about buying a pig before, otherwise I wouldn't have anything to eat during the New Year. Besides, we have so many oil cakes now, and I feel a little bit shortchanged if I don't raise pigs myself."
"It's just that raising pigs is a bit troublesome. I'm afraid you won't be able to handle it by then."
Hearing Ye Fei's words, Jiang Yu became a little unhappy and couldn't help but frown.
"Who said it was troublesome? Are you looking down on me?"
"The village chief has said that this woman can hold up half the sky! What can't I do? Not only raising pigs, I can even sell oil cakes!"
Jiang Yu's words were neither humble nor arrogant.
This made Ye Fei, who was a little worried about Jiang Yu, suddenly feel that the Jiang Yu standing in front of him seemed to have a lot more life in him, as well as the pride and confidence that he had first met before.
It's so bright and eye-catching that it's hard to take your eyes away.
Hearing Jiang Yu say these words, Ye Fei was silent for a while.
What a joke, this is his wife.
Who will protect him if he doesn't protect him?
Ye Fei chuckled, scratched his head sheepishly and said.
"My daughter-in-law is the most capable. After all, she is a well-educated intellectual and can handle both the living room and the kitchen. I believe you can do it."
"Stop teasing me, I will definitely do this well."
Jiang Yu finally showed a smile.
After a while, villagers brought the goods to the door.
The monkey came early today, carrying a big bag and looked very happy.
"A Fei, have you eaten?"
Ye Fei smiled and greeted him.
"I've already eaten. Have you eaten?"
"Of course, I will deliver the goods to you right now."
The monkey put down the bamboo basket on his back, which was full of baskets.
These are all things he grabbed as soon as he got up early in the morning.
Fortunately, I got up early, otherwise all the turtles in my field would have been caught by others.
Ever since Ye Fei started his business, many people didn't believe it before. But after they were convinced that Ye Fei would give him money, many people started catching turtles.
Many people think that they will earn more and others will earn less.
So they all took advantage of the opportunity and quietly ran to other people's fields.
Some families even got into fights in the fields over this matter.
If the village chief hadn't arrived in time, there might have been blood.
Finally, the village chief issued an order that each family was only allowed to catch the fish in their own fields and were not allowed to wander around in other people's homes.
Only then did everyone give up and disperse.
"Hey, there are so many goods, it seems you have been busy all day."
Ye Fei said half-jokingly.
"That's not true. I got up very early!"
"By the way, my mother made turtledove leaf tofu today and asked me to bring you two pieces to try. We mixed one piece today and it tastes great."
The monkey took out the bowl on the bamboo basket and opened the oil paper. Inside was green and watery turtle dove leaf tofu.
The recipe of turtle dove leaf tofu is simple and many people in the village can make it.
Boil a pot of boiling water to blanch the turtle dove leaves until soft, then squeeze out the juice and add an appropriate amount of plant ash to solidify before eating.
Generally, tofu made from soybeans is rarely sold, and everyone grows it in their fields.
What's more, the tofu made from soybeans is not cheap, and it is impossible for every household to buy it every time.
But at this time of the year, there is not much food to eat at home. Only the turtle dove leaves on the mountain grow luxuriantly, and many villagers will take some back to make tofu for cooking.
"What a good day today is. You all bring me food one by one. I can hardly eat anymore."
Ye Fei smiled and took the bowl, and a scent of fragrance floated out.
After hearing his words, the monkey looked a little surprised.
"Oh, who else is bringing food?"
"Da Linzi brought tung leaf cakes. I ate one and it was quite delicious. You can eat one too."
Ye Fei said with a smile.
He turned around and took one from the table and handed it to him.
After the monkey saw it, his expression seemed to be relieved, and he immediately took it and peeled it off and took a big mouthful.
"Well, it's really delicious. I haven't had this for a long time."
"When you taste it, you can tell that old Aunt Pan's cooking is much better than my mother's."
The monkey said with a smile while eating.
Here, Ye Fei took out all the goods in the bamboo basket and weighed them, while Jiang Yu also sat aside to help with the accounting.
Hearing this, Ye Fei just finished weighing himself and walked up to him and slapped him on the shoulder.
"You kid are not afraid of getting beaten for saying this. Do you usually eat less of the food cooked by your aunt?"
After being taught a lesson by Ye Fei, the monkey was not angry at all. He scratched his hair in embarrassment and begged for mercy with a smile.
"Oh, I'm just feeling emotional."
"You don't know, we just planted the seedlings during this period, and there is nothing to eat in the fields. I almost vomit after eating sweet potatoes and wild vegetables every day. It's not easy for me to have a change of taste."
The crops in the fields have just been planted, and there is no other food to eat. Every household does not have much old rice, which is mixed with sweet potatoes and cooked together.
"By the way, have you finished planting your seedlings? Do you want my help?"
Seeing Jiang Yu calculating the price, Monkey sat aside and chatted with Ye Fei. He trusted Ye Fei very much and had no doubts.
When it came to farming, Ye Fei suddenly remembered that he had bought seedlings two days ago, and he should have almost done it.
But the several acres of paddy fields at his home have not been plowed yet.
