Daily life of ancient farmhouse

Chapter 97 My dad

Another two months passed in a flash.

The strawberries of Shao Kun's family are also ripe. The strawberries don't need to be taken care of too carefully. They grow a large piece of fruit. The red fruit is sweet and sour, but it is too delicate.

People who don't like fruit like Shao Kun like to eat their strawberries, especially Tang Ze. Tang Ze had just returned from outside and the weather was gradually getting warmer: "Did you keep the strawberries for me?" These strawberries were picked in the morning before the sun came out. Chilled with well water, adults and children love it!

Shao Kun took out a basin for him from the kitchen. He fanned the wind and ate strawberries with a contented expression on his face.

There are many things in the vegetable field. Jufuzhai asks for a large amount every day, and even sends two people to live in the village. He helps pick vegetables every morning, and everyone knows what he has in the field.

The orders placed are getting bigger and bigger each time, and the peppers are about to be rounded up by them.

Shao Kun now manages the food shop, with Erhang and Erjin helping, plus the old man Jiang can basically be a shopkeeper. But Tang Ze was miserable. Every day, in addition to dealing with Jufuzhai, there are also the village chief's family asking for goods, as well as the market at the entrance of the village and some retail investors with a slightly larger volume.

There are not a few days to rest, and even eating strawberries is taking a break from the busy schedule.

"Our honeydew melon is coming down soon." Tang Ze couldn't help drooling when he mentioned this. A few days ago, they secretly picked a honeydew melon. The core was orange-yellow, and the rest was white. , but it's sweet, and it tastes extra expectant.

Sweetness is a very precious taste these days. Honeydew melons are expensive. Except for some wealthy households, few people in the village are willing to buy them.

Shao Kun came up with an excellent spicy dish, and said to Sanxing and Sanping: "Pick the big honeydew melon and pick 20." The

big honeydew melon already weighs two and a half kilograms, and it is not ripe yet. When fully mature, a honeydew melon can have four or five pounds.

"Yes." Sanping was the injured brother he rescued at the beginning. He was quiet and steady, and was Shao Kun's most capable person.

Tang Ze said: "It's not cooked yet."

"Make some delicious food. You can help later."

"Okay." Tang Ze has been eating old man Jiang's craftsmanship recently, and he has to say that his meals are very good. It's like it's made by a high-end restaurant, but he still prefers what Shao Kun makes. It's just that now Shao Kun doesn't do anything, and he doesn't want to trouble him for his own selfish desires. Now that he hears that he is interested again, his saliva can't hold back.

Shao Kun looked at Tang Ze and said, "Our son is greedy and knows who he is."

No wonder Tang Ze had a good impression of him when he was not married. When I was a child, I used to feed a lot, and I unknowingly raised a daughter-in-law for myself!

Soon twenty honeydew melons were picked, and when Shao Kun cut it open, it turned out that apart from the color of the core, the rest of the melon was still raw.

Shao Kun directly pulled out the seeds, and used a kitchen knife to peel off the skin of the melon outside. Cut the pulp into finger-sized pieces. Ask this person to hold the curtain like drying vegetables. Now that the sun is full, one day is almost enough.

Twenty melons covered five large bamboo curtains.

After a while, the nurse took Xiao Shaoyang out. The little guy has been more than five months old, and even the chubby one can turn over and sit.

Tang Xiao was the one who made the cloth clothes, and the children's clothes were a lot, and they were all good materials. Xiao Shaoyang was originally good-looking, but in addition to the beautiful dress, it can be said that everyone loves him!

The little guy could already recognize people, and when he saw Shao Kun, he stretched out a finger: "Ah." He leaned forward to hug.

Shao Kun smiled and said, "This little greedy cat must smell the fruity smell." He was cutting honeydew melon just now. Although he washed his hands, his body was still quite fragrant.

Shao Kun wanted to tease his son, but he didn't come to hug him for a while, so he was very anxious for the little guy. He quickly said: "Ah..."

"Cry."

"Humph." Xiao Shaoyang got angry and buried his face on the body of the nurse. His already chubby cheeks were now more fleshy.

Yihan next to him couldn't help but say, "Little master is so smart." He stopped crying after four months, and he would use shouting to attract others' attention when he wanted anything. And he can tell the bad words from the tone of voice, such a small child is too good.

Shao Kun didn't want to really make his son cry, otherwise Tang Ze should feel distressed again. This stinky boy has a lot of bad intentions. Once Shao Kun ignores him, he will go to Tang Ze to complain.

Shao Kun reached out and took his son over. The little guy looked over with wide eyes, and soon a successful smile appeared on his face: "Dad..." The little guy suddenly said something.

Tang Ze and Shao Kun froze on the spot.

Shao Kun said: "Son, you say it again."

"Ah..." The son looked at him innocently, as if the daddy sounded just now was an illusion.

Shao Kun said: "Good son."

Tang Ze also came over.

Their little Shaoyang was surrounded by two fathers, waving excitedly with his little hands: "Father..." This time, he said it more clearly.

Shao Kun immediately kissed his son's delicate cheek and rubbed the little guy's face with his chin.

Xiao Shaoyang knew that his father was playing with him, and he was very happy. Both Shao Kun and Tang Ze were a little excited.

His son can speak, and Shao Kun can be considered someone who has experienced major events, but he kissed and kissed excitedly to his son's cry.

Xiao Shaoyang's eyes are very similar to Tang Ze's, showing his intelligence. At this moment, I am enjoying being hugged and kissed by my father.

How can this kind of thing be managed. Soon the whole village knew that Shao Kun's son would call him Dad. The people in the village were amazed again, this child can speak only a few months old, is it a prodigy.

The villagers found Shao Kun and told him that he must nurture this child Shaoyang well. Maybe in the future there will be an official master in their village, that is the hope of the whole village.

This is the most respectable person the villagers can think of.

In the afternoon, Xiao Shaoyang changed into a red apron, embroidered with embroidery on it, leaning on the bed chubby and looking more and more like a little boy in a New Year's picture. In addition, Xiao Shaoyang loves to laugh, no matter who he sees, he laughs, but he is likable.

Some superstitious women in the village said: "Why don't your family prosper, this is the blessing brought by the child."

Shao Kun, who is used to listening to good words, can't control the corner of his mouth at this moment, and he keeps rising. He smiled and said, "It's the blessing brought by Tang Ze."

Everyone heard it and found that it was true. When Tang Ze and Shao Kun first got married, Shao Kun lived in a small house. Now look at how many servants there are. one.

So I praised Tang Ze again and again. Tang Ze is a thin-skinned person, who has experienced such an encounter. His face was all red now. This treatment is completely in the light of his son.

...

That night, Shao Kun was immersed in the excitement of being called Dad by his son, tossing and turning.

Tang Ze couldn't help but complain: "What?" He was also happy, but not like Shao Kun.

Shao Kun said: "It's just generally happy."

Tang Ze didn't break him, his smile was almost overflowing, and he was still pretending.

But soon the alarm bell in Tang Ze's heart began to ring. Because Shao Kun leaned over with bright eyes: "Is there something else that makes me happier?"

Tang Ze didn't want to ask, but was really curious: "What?

" Make one for yourself?" My brother's body is more delicate, so he usually wears an extra set, including a bellyband and the like. It's just that Shao Kun never saw it.

Tang Ze stammered nervously: "I... no."

Shao Kun said, "Next time, my husband will make you a few outfits." How could there be no such interesting clothes.

Tang Ze said: "Go to sleep." He was a little guilty. He really had one, but it was too embarrassing to be tied with a thin strap.

Shao Kun thought he was tired, so he turned off the kerosene lamp and the room was dark.

...

The next morning, Shao Kun dried honeydew melon for a day, and after drying it overnight, it became very similar to radish strips, and it felt soft and hard to the touch. I tasted a sweet fruity taste with dried fruit. Tenacity, most people will use sugar syrup to make candied fruit. But Shao Kun is unusual. He marinated the dried honeydew melon with red oil and other seasonings, a typical spicy snack.

It tastes spicy and fragrant, and it has a wonderful taste. This kind of thing is a seasonal dish and doesn't last long. You can eat it in two or three hours. If the soaking time is too long, the dried fruit will be full of juice, but it will be tired, and there will be no soft and elastic texture.

Shao Kun's family used to have some small jars, which were sold for 25 yuan after the altar was sealed. And it must be eaten within three days at the latest.

In addition to their own food, there are more than 20 altars in total. In the market, many people sold out before they got the letter.

The red oil kimchi from Shao Kun's family is famous for a long time, and this spicy snack must be good. Bought it even if it was expensive.

Guan Yujie and Bai Gongzi made five altars, and they said that they were five altars, that is, a small pottery altar with a big slap and a round belly.

Shao Kun said: "You have to eat it all in three days, you bought too much."

Guan Yujie rolled his eyes at him: "Who are you looking down on, can you keep it for three days?" Scoop out. Pick up a piece and put it in your mouth without saltiness. The taste is very tough. It is suitable for small snacks to eat while chatting. And it's rare that it tastes so good. He also claims to have traveled thousands of miles, but he has never eaten this before.

I destroyed two jars in one meal, and I still eat them together. After all, I can keep them for three days, so I plan to keep them for a few more days.

On the second day, he felt that grabbing the five altars was the right way, because Shao Kun was no longer for sale. The ones I bought yesterday didn't have enough to eat, especially those with a large family. Everyone can't share a few bites of it, so I plan to buy more today.

I knew that I should smack and smack properly when I was eating, and it would be gone if I didn't taste it. Many people persuaded Shao Kun to put money aside and not earn money. How can there be such a business?

Shao Kun was inscrutable and did not speak. After the honeydew melon was dried, it became very rare. It was because he wanted to eat it at home. I sold it once yesterday, and it seems that I still lost money. This is the first time since doing business, and it's all to blame for that stinky boy in Shaoyang, who coaxed him into being unable to find Bei.
