Chapter 31 Simple Life

Mother Chrysanthemum calculated, if she sold a bowl of four cents excluding the tax, it would not be worth the effort to go to the town. With this effort, she could catch several bowls of shrimp, and it was reasonable for Gu Chunzhu to charge three cents for a bowl. She thought that her brother-in-law had nothing to do when he was idle and had been fishing for prawns for several days, and everyone in the family was tired of it.

Then Wangqin's family, if someone wants to sell me, let me send them to your house! Mother Chrysanthemum said to Gu Chunzhu first.

Okay. Gu Chunzhu said goodbye to Mother Chrysanthemum. The eyes of the two children, especially An Anwan, were about to fall into the sweet-scented osmanthus, so she took the two children home first.

Back home, Su Wangqin hadn't come back yet, but Mrs. Fu dutifully sat on the wooden pier and waited for them.

When she saw the person came back, she clapped her legs and stood up, What's the matter? Xiaocheng is wronged. She looked at the red handprint on Xiaocheng's handsome face with distress, and a distressed tsk tsk came out of her mouth. Voice.

Sister Qiu apologized, thank you sister-in-law, and I watched it for a while. Gu Chunzhu opened the oiled paper bag and grabbed a small handful of sweet-scented osmanthus candy and a small handful of melon seeds, and put them in Sister-in-law Fu's hand.

Sister-in-law Fu hurriedly declined: How can I take your family's things? I just watched it for a while and it's not in the way. Let's keep it for Xiaocheng and An'an.

Let's eat it for Da Zhuang. Now the family is making money selling river prawns. It's not bad for this little snack. My sister-in-law also saw that I bought flower oil in the kitchen to cook lard. Now it's different from before. And it will get better.

Gu Chunzhu put this sentence in her stomach, and after she said it, Sister Fu accepted it.

She held her things happily, and seeing that Gu Chunzhu was indeed different from before, she nodded her head in relief and asked, You guys can really make money selling shrimp?

Gu Chunzhu told her what she had told Chrysanthemum again. Sister-in-law Fu said that when she was free, she would go get a shrimp hook to fish for shrimp, and then let Gu Chunzhu sell it on her behalf.

After a few more words, the two went back to cook separately. Gu Chunzhu asked An An and Xiao Cheng to sit in the yard to eat snacks. He was about to turn around and enter the kitchen to work, but was caught by An An's little hand.

A sweet sweet-scented osmanthus candy was stuffed into her mouth. It was made of flour, and a little dried osmanthus and a little sugar were added. Chew carefully to get the sweetness.

Is it delicious? An An's big eyes stared at Gu Chunzhu's face.

It's delicious, it's so sweet to my heart. An An and my brother eat it, and my mother went to cook the lard, and picked up the lard residue as snacks for you. She said and ran to the stove to boil the lard.

The stove was filled with firewood, the fire was not too small or too small, and the iron pan was hot with a trace of white smoke, and Gu Chunzhu poured the flower oil that was cut into pieces.

With a sound of Zi, the oil came out of the pot, and she turned it over with a shovel a few times, so that the oil didn't stick to the pot. Then, if there was too much oil, she would just stare at the side.

Five catties of flower oil boiled three large clay pots of lard, and in the end there was still a little bit left in the bowl.

Gu Chunzhu couldn't help knocking on his head, he actually bought so much, it's enough for a year!

In addition to the lard, a large bowl of lard residue was boiled. Gu Chunzhu took a small bowl, sprinkled it with a little salt, stirred it, and brought it out to be eaten by the two children.

You haven't finished eating the sweet-scented osmanthus candy and melon seeds? She saw that two oil-paper wraps had been wrapped on the wooden pier on the side.

Brother said that you can't eat so much, let An An save it for tomorrow. An An said with a small head and a braid.

They are really two sensible and distressing children, Gu Chunzhu handed over the small bowl, touched her braid and said, Come on, eat the lard residue.

Have you eaten yet? An An asked thoughtfully. She carefully held the small bowl on her knees, Xiao Cheng sat on the edge, and the two children picked up one each and exclaimed, then put it in her mouth and chewed it.

The lard residue was squeezed out of oil, and it was very crisp. Gu Chunzhu also ate one, and it tasted very good. She warned the two little guys, You can't eat too much of this. If you eat too much, you will have bubbles in your mouth.

The two of them answered obediently. Thinking that there was still a bowl of lard residue in the kitchen, Gu Chunzhu thought of a way. It's on fire, and it tastes good.

After thinking about it, she scooped up a pound of brown rice and went to Mrs. Fu's house to change the flour.

Semolina is a little more expensive than brown rice, and the white flour for making steamed buns is much more expensive. Mrs. Fu insisted on giving her a pound of semolina. Gu Chunzhu thanked her and said she had made dumplings for her.

As soon as I got home, I saw Su Wangqin coming back. He was holding An An and tossing it to a height of one meter. An An also gave out a giggle silver bell-like laughter.

Brother Wang, it's dangerous, put the child down! Gu Chunzhu hurriedly pushed the door in, so scared that she was about to come out.

An An also smiled at her. Her hand gestured and slapped her little buttocks lightly, and said angrily, If Daddy doesn't catch you, your little ass will break into four pieces.

Hee hee hee. An An saw that Gu Chunzhu didn't really hit her, and the momentary stiffness disappeared without a trace, so she went to make trouble with Xiaocheng, and didn't bother her father to abandon her.

Su Wangqin and Gu Chunzhu walked into the stove together, and Gu Chunzhu said to him with the flour in his hand, Ask the flour that Mrs. Fu changed. Let's eat dumplings today, and the stuffing is fried and Chinese cabbage.

I'll knead the dough. Su Wangqin rolled up his sleeves to wash his hands. Gu Chunzhu saw that he wanted to knead the dough, so he helped him with a spoonful of water and walked outside.

Go, he also came to wash his hands.

After washing his hands, Gu Chunzhu thought about what Su Wangqin had done, and asked, Did you give the money for the river shrimp?

Here, I've been there for a while. I bought the river prawns caught by the third family living by the mountain. He grew up with me, and he taught me how to trap and hunt. Mother heard that needles can be made into shrimp hooks to fish for river shrimp, so she bent it and fished a whole bucket, so my family couldn’t finish eating and was worried.”

Su Wangqin said that he was in a particularly good mood, not only making money but also helping others.

He shook off the water on his hands and continued, Almost nine bowls of river prawns gave twenty-seven pennies, making the third's mother happy, and the money for this injection has also been earned.

By the way, Brother Wang, Sister-in-law Fu and Mother Chrysanthemum said that they will send shrimps when they have them. I agree. Anyway, a bucket is also sold. If our business is good, why not sell more. Gu Chunzhu kept things simple for him. After explaining it, Su Wangqin just nodded and had no opinion.

Su Wangqin took the flour mixed with water and started kneading the dough. Gu Chunzhu swept to a bowl of pickles on the stove and asked, Where did this pickle come from?
