Chapter 10: Accumulate Points
At this time, there are still some vegetables and vegetables, not to mention the cabbage and radish in the field, and there are beans, eggplants, peppers and so on picked in the barn a few days ago.
Although it was a little wilted, it didn't delay eating at all.
The big guys in the Qu family are looking at it these days, and if they take out big fish and meat, it will be too eye-catching, so they can only add something according to the existing materials at home.
Stewed vermicelli with cabbage, stewed potatoes with eggplant, stir-fried chili with meat, scrambled eggs with fungus, stir-fried meat with celery, stir-fried shredded pork with salted mustard greens.
The dried fish and chili peppers are fried in oil and then cooked in vinegar, which is crispy, crispy, spicy and delicious. Stir-fry another peanut and have a leek egg soup.
Eight dishes and one soup with a pot of rhubarb rice, this meal is already a rarity.
Qiaolian worked neatly and quickly, and with the help of Sister-in-law Hu and Sister-in-law Li and the daughters-in-law of the two families, it didn't take long for the meals to be ready.
I borrowed a kang table from the Li family, the men in the east room sat at one table, and the women in the west room sat at one table, and the big guys ate lively.
"Oh, brother and sister, you're too expensive, how much do these two tables of dishes cost? You have to use two catties of meat alone.
It's not easy to buy meat at this time, you can't buy it with any amount of money, the big guy just stretches out his hand to help, how can you break the bill so much? ”
When the men saw the dishes on the table, they were a little embarrassed, and the man of the Li family said with some embarrassment.
"It's nothing, this is when I went to the countryside two days ago, just in time for someone else's pig to break his leg.
I saw that the meat was very good, so I bought some, came back and threw it in the backyard well and hung it, but it was quite fresh, and I just took it out to stir-fry today.
There are no good things at home, don't dislike it, big guys, eat a little. ”
Most of the houses here have no partition walls, except for an earthen wall less than two feet high behind the stove.
Therefore, the east and west rooms are actually connected, and there is no delay in talking on both sides.
Qiao Lian knew that people were polite words, so naturally she wouldn't take them seriously.
He only smiled and explained, then turned around and took out a bottle of wine from the kitchen cabinet and poured it for the men.
"This wine has been for a long time, and it was still hidden when my father-in-law was there.
The old man likes to drink two sips, waiting for his father-in-law to be gone, no one has moved this wine, so he just took it out and drank it today. ”
The wine was naturally obtained by Qiao Lian from the system, but it was just poured into her own wine bottle in advance.
How many men don't like to drink? When they saw the wine, they were closer to each other than when they saw their parents, so they took two sips of the wine glass with a smile.
"Oh, it's good wine, this wine is strong enough, if you don't say that Uncle Qu knows the goods, there is still such a good wine hidden at home."
As soon as you eat the wine, you will know whether it is good or not, and several men nodded their heads again and again, saying that it is good wine.
Qiaolian sat on the edge of the kang, and Jiakang sat beside her, and at this time she was holding vegetables and bowing her head to feed her son, and when she heard people praise the wine, she smiled.
"I don't know how to drink, and it's a waste to keep it, since you like it, Brother Li, let's drink it all."
It's just a bottle of wine, and there are five or six big men over there, and drinking this little wine is not like having fun.
Since you will not feel distressed if you take it out for hospitality, Qiao Lian said very generously.
Men love wine, and they are more happy to have good wine than anything else, not to mention that there is such a dish on the table.
Today's vegetable oil and water are full, and no one is willing to eat like this on ordinary days, so the men are very satisfied, and they are very happy to change the cup and drink it one by one.
The man was happy to push the cup and change the glass, drink and make fists, and Sister-in-law Li and Sister-in-law Hu glanced at the other side and pouted.
"Virtue, seeing wine one by one is like seeing bee poop, what do you say is good about that thing? How did they get into it? ”
After speaking, he didn't wait for others to answer, just laughed, lowered his head and continued to eat.
Qiao Lian prepared enough meals, so she warmly beckoned everyone to let go of eating.
The big guy is also very tired this day, it is rare to have good dishes and good meals, no one pretended to be fake, and they are very happy to eat.
After the meal, the rain outside had long since stopped, and it was pitch black.
It wasn't early, everyone said goodbye and left, and each family helped the men of each family, so they went out of the courtyard of the Qu family and went home to sleep.
After a rain, the next day was a sunny day, but the temperature was not high.
When I got up on the morning of the third day, I saw that the ground was white outside, and needless to say that it was naturally frosty.
Fortunately, the vegetables in the vegetable garden that are afraid of frost have long been picked back, and they are not afraid of frost.
Recovering the crops in the field is only the first step, and then the corn has to be peeled off and slowly ventilated and dried, and then the corn kernels can be picked off and ground for cooking.
Sorghum, millet, beans, and these also have to be threshed, so it is said that when the farm has no leisure, there is work to be done.
Of course, there is no need to rush this, just do it slowly, and don't wait for new food to eat anyway.
Qiaolian packed up the grain every morning, and led the two children to her own forest in the afternoon.
Or pick pears and wild hawthorns on the trees, or pick up chestnuts on the ground, anyway, there are a lot of good things in the forest, which can be exchanged for points.
If you don't pack up these things and go home, you'll be blind when the snow falls.
Qiaolian's most important task now is to accumulate more points.
The system said that if you accumulate a certain amount of points, the system will have upgrade rewards.
Qiaolian was curious about what she would reward, so she rowed a lot of things home every day.
At night, taking advantage of the children's work, they will exchange all the things they get back during the day into points.
Half a month has passed, and Qiaolian has been in this place for more than a month, and now she is completely adapted to life here.
On this day, Qiaolian was picking corn in the yard, when she suddenly heard someone shouting loudly, "Everyone listens, tomorrow morning, go to the village for a meeting." ”
At this time, the village has not yet installed a loudspeaker, and there is something wrong, so it can only send people to shout loudly everywhere.
The village to which Shijiagou belongs is called Yingkuangzi Village, the place is not small, and the villagers are scattered everywhere, the farthest is four or five miles away from the village.
In fact, even if there is a loudspeaker, it is not much use, no matter how loud the loudspeaker is, the sound cannot be transmitted so far.
Hearing someone shouting outside, Qiao Lian didn't hold back and stood up and walked to the door, leaned out half of her body to look out, and saw the people in the village shouting loudly on the road.
"Meeting tomorrow? What's the meeting? Over there, the sister-in-law of the Hu family also came out, called out to the people in the village, and asked.
"It's a good thing, land reform, I must remember to go tomorrow." The man didn't look back, just replied loudly, and then left.
"What is land reform?" Sister-in-law Hu didn't understand a little.
Now that this new society has all kinds of new terms, it is really incomprehensible to these uneducated women.
"Sister-in-law, it's time to discuss the land issue, and we want to divide the land of those landlords' families to those who have no land to plant."
Qiao Lian can understand a little bit, this is to start demarcating the ingredients and then divide the fields, right?
