Today everyone went out early and bypassed Laojun Mountain and went to Mingzhu Mountain, which is a little further away.
Along the way, these wives chatted about the Mid-Autumn Festival.
Chen Yu walked silently in front of the crowd, listening to them discuss picking osmanthus flowers to make wine, paying tribute to the moon, and so on. In the end, she didn't hear the word moon cake.
It's different. Chen Yu looked up at the towering Pearl Mountain and was thinking about moon cakes. In his own impression, the synonym of the Mid-Autumn Festival is moon cakes. As for the word reunion, it became an expectation. Everyone was busy. How could they be reunited in the Mid-Autumn Festival?
There are still only a few people. As for climbing high, looking into the distance, admiring the moon and composing poems, these were the pleasures of ancient people.
While these people were collecting herbs, Chen Yu found a comfortable place to sit down as usual. She only came to ask Chen Yu unless it was a medicinal material that even Fu Niang was unsure about.
Chen Yu was not idle either. She still had to clean up the wasteland in the replacement space. She took the time to go to the bamboo house to check out how to celebrate the Mid-Autumn Festival in ancient times, and also checked out the process of making mooncakes.
Mingzhu Mountain was farther away from home. After a while, these people came back. After entering the door, Chen Yu paid for the medicinal materials. Su Funiang prepared the herbs, and Chen Yu went to find Su Yunniang.
Everyone at home is busy, and Zheng Yue'e's sisters-in-law are busy running threads.
When they arrived at the kitchen, they saw a large basket of sweet-scented osmanthus. Needless to say, Yun Niang wanted to make sweet-scented osmanthus wine.
"Mom, why don't you rest for a while?" Su Yunniang came over with a bowl of water and asked Chen Yu to sit on the small bench.
Chen Yu took a sip of water: "Mom will teach you how to make some food."
Su Yunniang smiled: "There's no need to worry, don't tire yourself out."
"I can let you try to make money first. Besides, your sister-in-law's clothes are almost the same, so they have to go to Qingniu County to try some clothes." Chen Yu got up and washed his hands, then turned around and said, "This kind of food can only be eaten during the Mid-Autumn Festival.
Judgment is the most suitable for the occasion, can you not be in a hurry?"
When Su Yunniang heard what Chen Yu said, she took a towel and came over and stood beside Chen Yu: "Whatever you need, mother says, and I will do it."
Chen Yu wiped his hands and said slowly: "Everything else is easy to talk about. I need more fillings. The raspberry jam you made some time ago will come in handy. I'll tell you how to make it. You can prepare the ingredients tomorrow.
Your second brother will make some molds for you when he comes back later, and in the afternoon we and I will set up an oven next to the kitchen."
Su Yunniang had never heard of an oven, but what she said was right, just do it.
While the couple were busy in the backyard, Su Erlang came back with Wu Lang and Liu Lang. The three brothers were full of joy and looked for Chen Yu when they entered the door. When they saw Chen Yu and Su Yuniang were making mud in the backyard, Su Wulang hurried over and stopped them.
Chen Yu said: "Mom, we will do this work, just do it as you say."
Su Liulang brought a chair and put it next to him: "Mom, please sit down and have a rest."
Chen Yu finally understood why ancient people would say that having more children and grandchildren means longevity and longevity. Isn’t that true!
After washing her hands and sitting down, Su Yunniang brought me raspberry jam water.
"Mom, we went out for a walk today and bought four old houses for thirty taels of silver. Tomorrow we will hire people to pick out the houses and collect materials." Su Erlang said.
Chen Yu nodded: "Okay, don't let the people in Zhuangzi say that our family is a scrounger, and it doesn't matter how much we pay, so as not to take any favors."
"Well, my son understands." Su Erlang is an extremely filial person, but he is not stupid at all in his behavior. Instead, he is very shrewd. He understands what Chen Yu means. The family is prosperous, and it won't be long before many people have to curry favor.
, use less favors so that it will be difficult to talk to you.
Chen Yu glanced at Su Erlang: "Make some molds for me."
"Do it now?" Su Erlang asked.
Chen Yu nodded and explained the shape of the mold in detail. There was no problem in communication between the two of them. Chen Yu explained carefully and Su Erlang's carpenter skills were excellent.
While Su Erlang went to do carpentry work, Chen Yu taught Wu Lang and Liu Lang how to make a pot lid kiln.
The two brothers worked very quickly and worked hard all night. Early the next morning, Chen Yu saw a complete pot-lid kiln. He was amazed at Wulang and Liulang's diligence and intelligence. After all, he only said it once.
I invited Su Yunniang to come over and try the pot lid kiln. I baked the dough last night and the bread baked in it was charred on the outside and tender on the inside. Even Su Yunniang was amazed.
Chen Yu walked around the pot-lid kiln and had an idea. Next to the pot-lid kiln, he asked Wulang and Liulang to improve the technology of the pot-lid kiln and build an earthen oven that could continuously heat the bottom.
After explaining, Chen Yu took Su Funiang and these wives into the mountain as usual.
Although the replacement space does not speak, Chen Yu can clearly feel its existence as long as he walks into the mountains. After all, seeing a weed staring at a world of Arabic numerals is so subversive.
.
However, this also brought great benefits. Just take a quick look and go wherever you have more points. You will definitely find treasures. However, Chen Yu didn't want to be too eye-catching and didn't want others to say behind his back that there must be a monster when things go wrong.
The corn in the space has matured. Chen Yu put his hands behind his back and dug a hole first to make sure no one saw it. Then he moved the entire corn plant out, buried it and spread it with some fallen leaves, then turned around and left.
When collecting herbs, Mr. Miao took several people and separated from Su Funiang. Firstly, Mr. Miao learned very well, and secondly, they were all together and no one could collect much.
Chen Yu sat down, and Su Funiang came over with a basket, took out a grass from it and asked: "Mom, do you think this is Anemarrhena?"
"Anemarrhena?" Chen Yu glanced at the grass in Su Funiang's hand and frowned slightly: "How is Anemarrhena used as medicine?"
"The rhizomes are used as medicine for cold cough in the lungs, weak kidney qi, and those with no fire syndrome and weak pulse. It can clear away heat and purge fire, nourish yin and moisturize dryness, relieve cough and cook rice. It is mainly used to treat febrile diseases, high fever and polydipsia, cough and asthma, and deficiency."
I'm so tired that I can't sleep..." Su Funiang said immediately, seeing Chen Yu's face getting darker and darker as she spoke, she pursed her lips and said, "Mom, why are you angry?"
Chen Yu took the grass from Su Funiang's hand: "You know that rhizomes are used as medicine, so you came to me with a few leaves and a scape and asked me? It's okay if I'm here. If I weren't here, I wouldn't be able to make up my mind?"
Su Funiang's face turned red and she stood up: "Yes, what mother taught you is, I will dig it out and take a look."
Chen Yu lowered his eyebrows and said, "Go."
After Su Funiang left, Chen Yu walked over to the Miao family with his hands behind his back, and then looked at the herbs in these people's baskets. He didn't say whether they were right or wrong at the moment, and walked to the place where he had buried them in advance.
In front of the good corn, raise your voice: "Fu Niang."
Su Funiang immediately ran over: "Mom, what's wrong?"
"Do you know this?" Chen Yu asked.
Su Funiang looked at the solitary corn stalk, which was more than a foot taller than herself, and slowly shook her head: "I don't know, Mom, this is also a medicinal material?"
Chen Yu secretly held her forehead, but she was just putting on a show. She stretched out her hand and broke off the corn cob, tearing off the outer corn husk to reveal the yellow and orange corn kernels. She took one off and was about to put it in her mouth.
"Mom! I'll do it!" Su Fu Niang shouted happily, snatched it away and threw it into her mouth.
Chen Yu looked at Su Funiang in astonishment.
Su Fu Niang chewed it up and looked at Chen Yu with a smile: "My mother told Shen Nong to taste the herbs, so I will try it too. This stuff is not very tasty, it is very hard."
