Chapter 120 Eating and Drinking
Yu Ergou, who just returned to the village today, did not go out for a run for the first time.
He went directly to Wujia Village and found the martial arts teacher who was sitting at the door to rest. He told him what happened today, and since then he has sold all the things every day.
Ergou studied very hard. He was very talented and made rapid progress.
Even his master said that he had a potential in martial arts.
Of course, his efforts are self-evident. He always finds time to practice archery, so it is inevitable that he will gain something from it.
It’s just because he is young, and he is only using a small bow now.
Of course, this is all later. Now Yu Ergou is still working hard to practice basic skills.
-
In the blink of an eye, it was December.
Yu Baibai made a lot of money from his small business. Yu Yaozu and his friends also made kangs and sold charcoal.
It can be considered a gain, but it’s just small money.
Even if everyone shares it, each family can only get one or two taels of silver.
Yu Baibai got three taels of rice per person, and the rest all belonged to Yu Baibai. This was all discussed by the disciples themselves.
They even made a written agreement and asked the village head to testify.
After Yu Baibai went with him to sell things a few times, he let it go.
Leave this matter entirely to Yu Xin.
She sat at home counting the silver coins by herself.
Back to the days of fishing in the river and chasing chickens in the mountains.
The weather here has become colder, and sometimes Yu Baibai hardly even goes out.
I sit in the courtyard, brewing tea by the fire, reading a novel I took out from my space, eating snacks, and feeling comfortable.
This period is the slack season for farmers, and there is nothing much to do in the fields.
The people in Wujia Village are now used to it and run to the Yu family compound whenever they have nothing to do.
The main reason is that Yu Baibai and his friends have been collecting small straw baskets for a long time, and they only collect them in Wujia Village.
Yu Yaozu and his pastry business are still booming.
The task of teaching people how to make the kang that I had agreed to teach Zhuge Huaijin at the beginning had already been completed.
Everyone tacitly walked away and made their beds elsewhere, leaving the ones nearby to Yu Yaozu and the others.
Yu Baibai and his family also bought two dairy cows and built a cowshed for them.
They are given plenty of food and drink and are treated like ancestors, hoping that they can produce more milk.
The pastries are also constantly updated, with egg tarts, small cakes and so on.
Those young men and women who had started learning kung fu joined in one after another.
The time for learning martial arts was changed to early in the morning, and almost everyone in the village would go there to practice martial arts.
It’s not neat at all, but everyone is working hard.
Even the aunties who get up early in the morning to cook would take the time to take the spoon and lick it twice.
If you look closely, the movements are similar to when they beat their own sons, but the expressions are more ferocious.
The young girls and wives were jealous of Yu Baibai and his team's booming business.
Those who want to join can go to find Yu Xin and Yu Daguo.
Those who have talent in this area will stay.
Anyway, we have built two more oven rooms now, and they are fully equipped with everything.
It is very convenient to have a blacksmith in the village to get the molds and other things you need.
They would carefully wipe the iron trays and other items with oil after each use to keep them shiny and bright.
The oven in Yu Baibai's house is now used by Yu Baibai himself to bake new products.
Now Yu Baibai has neighbors on both sides, and the three members of the Qiao family are on the left.
On the right are the houses of Yu Yaozu and Qiao Mu, and the two families surround Yu Baibai tightly.
The small courtyard where they used to live is now used as a warehouse, storing the materials used by Yu Baibai and his friends to make cakes.
Yu Baibai's courtyard was obviously better maintained than the other courtyards on both sides; even the path was paved with stone slabs.
There is also a reserved open space where Grandpa Yu will plant fruit trees for Yu Baibai in the spring.
There is also a small kitchen, a woodshed, a toilet and so on.
There is a thatched shed not far from the cottage, with a table inside.
It's cold now, so the straw mat has been put down and the temperature is just right.
There was a small clay stove on the table, in which was boiling a casserole containing clear soup.
There were vegetables, meat slices and other things placed around, and Yu Baibai and two old men were eating hot pot, sweating all over.
Mr. Yu kept talking while eating: "Baibai, what are we eating tomorrow?"
Now he is just a deaf and dumb old man in the family. As long as the old woman doesn't cause trouble, he can take care of the household as he wants.
Anyway, the money is here with me.
How nice it would be to follow along!
I can see my granddaughter every day, eat fresh food, and she won’t make me angry.
He feels a lot younger these days!
Yu Baibai dipped his food in sesame sauce and said, "How about we have barbecue tomorrow?"
I haven’t eaten it for a long time!
When Mr. Qiao heard this, his eyes lit up: "What barbecue? Is it as delicious as this?"
Yu Baibai thought for a moment and said, "That's about right. It's mainly about the atmosphere."
"What do you need? We'll prepare it tomorrow morning!"
Yu Baibai thought for a moment and counted on his fingers:
"Rabbit, chicken, or pork is fine! Any vegetables are fine! I'll take care of the rest of the side dishes."
Anyway, there is everything in the space, so just take out some fruits or something.
The two elders agreed: "Okay!"
The two looked at each other, nodded, and continued eating.
Now the two old relatives have completely united as a front.
If her grandfather needed meat, he would go for a walk in the mountains. If he needed vegetables, Grandpa Yu would go to the vegetable garden to look for them.
The main focus is on a clear division of labor, and sometimes the two elders team up to trick Yu Yaozu.
They just loved to follow Yu Baibai around the village, mainly because Yu Baibai would sometimes go up the mountain.
They were also worried, so they just followed him. Anyway, the two old guys didn't have much to do.
Yu Baibai didn't care about his father's business, and only occasionally checked the account book of their own cake making.
Or if he is in a good mood, he will make new styles and call his apprentices to learn from him.
You have to learn it! Whoever can’t learn it doesn’t need to follow me to sell things!
Qiao Mu has been thinking a lot lately, and he's kind of thinking about going back to his old job.
There is nothing much to do at home right now, and everyone is busy making charcoal these days.
Even if I can't sell it, I'll stock up on it.
Qiao Mu called Mrs. Yu over today, intending to make some money while everyone had some extra money before the New Year.
They were all preparing food next door today. Smelling the aroma from here, Qiao Mu said angrily:
"You prodigal son, all you do is eat all day long!" Don't you even bother asking your mother to go and have a bite?
Mrs. Yu hurriedly said, "Baibai is still growing, so go eat."
There are two old men over there, who wants to bring bad luck upon themselves?
"Let's not eat the big pot meal. Let's eat hand-rolled noodles later!" Qiao Mu kneaded the dough with a basin.
"Why not? I haven't eaten your cooking in ages, and I miss it so much!"
She knows Qiao Mu's craftsmanship best, otherwise his business wouldn't be so prosperous!
To be honest, during the whole journey of fleeing famine, what she missed most was the bowl of noodles with gravy made by Qiumu.
That is a fragrance!
Just thinking about it now makes her saliva start to secrete.
"Okay! Then just wait and eat! I'll let you eat as much as you want today!" You little heartless guy, I also want to eat good food!
