Even when I ate at home during the Chinese New Year, I never tasted such good food. There was always meat every day.
No matter where you work, you basically eat black flour pancakes. The better ones are corn flour pancakes. With some pickles and the like, it is considered a pretty good meal.
If there are some good families, they will be very happy if you cook some porridge for them.
But it was different for the Yun family. Those who came from the city wanted to work for the Yun family forever, especially when they heard that the little girl in the Yun family was actually a princess newly conferred by the emperor.
The title of princess is much higher than that of the county magistrate in the city. The key is that when meeting the little princess, she neither shows courtesy nor worries about being blamed by the little princess.
Everyone collected the money and ate their meal. After leaving, the villagers gave the money to their parents or wives for safekeeping.
The family members all knew that the wage was 50 cents a day, but when they actually waited to get their wages, they couldn't contain their joy.
I only earned one and a half taels of silver a month, and I didn't have to pay for the ox cart fare.
We are still in the same village and have free food. The man in the family doesn't have to eat at home for a month, but we save a lot.
As soon as Yun Nian'an sat down, Old Lady Yun brought the food to the table in the main hall and said, "My dear, you have been busy for so long, eat first."
Yun Nian'an picked up the food with chopsticks and put it into his mouth.
Old Lady Yun smiled and said, "Mid-Autumn Festival is coming soon. Darling, is there anything you want to eat? Ask your grandfather to go to the city to buy some more."
Yun Nian'an just remembered that the Mid-Autumn Festival was approaching, and thought that he had eaten the most mooncakes in his previous life.
Especially the mooncakes with the words "round and round" written on them, "Grandma, do we have mooncakes here?"
Old Lady Yun listened to Yun Nian'an's question and nodded. "Of course there are moon cakes. There are not only moon cakes but also lantern festivals."
Wait until the night of the Mid-Autumn Festival and ask your father to take you to the city. Who knows how lively it will be there!"
Yun Nian'an nodded his head, and Yun Lao San was also happily listening to the lanterns! It was definitely lively.
Yun Lao San was thinking about something and looked at Yun Nian'an. "Nian'an, the lanterns are really fun. I've never been there before.
But I heard that the lanterns in the city never stop shining all night long.
There were people playing outside all night long, and they didn't worry about their safety. All the runners from the county government in the city would come out to maintain order and patrol everywhere.
Basically there won’t be any bad guys, so no matter how late it is, when you have dinner at home, Dad will take you there in a bullock cart.”
Yun Nian'an couldn't help nodding as he listened to what Yun Lao San said.
The Mid-Autumn Festival came soon. Yun Nian'an just got up from bed early in the morning and saw someone banging something around in the house.
Old Mrs. Yun took out a lot of dried meat and other things from the house. When Yun Nian'an got up, he saw his grandmother sitting beside him, sighing uncontrollably.
"Grandma, what's going on?"
Old Lady Yun shook her head and said, "It's all because of your grandfather. I wanted to sell some of the wild boars I caught before, but your grandfather refused to give them away!
All of them are made into bacon. Look, the idle house is full of bacon.
This morning when I woke up, a lot of ropes were broken and there was so much bacon on the ground that grandma was worried about when she could finish eating it. "
Yun Nian'an wondered if this thing was kept for too long, would it be useless?
Besides, there are so many wild boars in the mountains. You can eat them whenever you want. Why do you need to eat these?
After thinking for a while, she looked at Old Lady Yun and said, "Grandma, why don't we share the bacon with those who have helped our village."
