Chapter 123, Fortunately I brought enough money (first order required)
"Boss Qian is here." After responding with a smile, Grandma He looked behind Qian Zeyang again, but was a little surprised when she didn't see Boss Zhao behind him.
"Your father didn't come today?"
Qian Zeyang also handed the gift he brought to Grandma He, "No, my dad is busy in the store, I will go to the village to pick up the goods myself in the future."
Hearing this, Grandma He didn't think much about it and said, "Okay, let's go to the mountain." Xiaoxue must be so tired working there alone.
It's rare to have help.
Mei Xue is not alone here, there are also An Wen, An Liang and others. Today is Saturday, and these guys are all at home.
"Sister-in-law, have you picked all these vegetables?" When they arrived at the celery field, An Liang asked with some reluctance.
"Yes, pull them all out. It's the end of September now and they won't grow much." It would be better to replant them.
Not to mention that her vegetables are ripe more than half a month earlier than usual.
"All right."
The other vegetables are basically all tied up, except for these celery.
When Grandma He took Qian Zeyang and his group up the mountain, An Liang and the others were sitting aside to rest. The fields were full of bundled vegetables.
Even the green beans were tied into bunches, and the cucumbers were also tied. The loofahs were too tender to be tied, so they were just placed directly in the basket.
The four big baskets that were brought up were all filled.
The water spinach was pulled out of the ground with its roots, and the cabbages were picked after being ripened by the plum blossoms and snow.
Anyway, today is a harvest day. Except for the watermelons that are only the size of a thumb, all the vegetables in the field have been picked.
"Xiaoxue, Xiaoxue." Grandma He called out to Meixue as soon as she came up.
Seeing so many people coming up, Mei Xue stood up and said, "You've come just in time. Hurry up and pick all these vegetables down. If they're left in the sun any longer, they'll wilt."
Mr. Shi looked around and then turned back to Mei Xue. "Little girl, your cooking skills are quite good."
"Uncle Shi." Mei Xue nodded, "Not bad, grandma taught me well."
Those who were supposed to come up to help became porters, and all the vegetables were carried back to the He family courtyard.
After finishing his work, Grandpa Shi began his performance, "Little girl, do you have any good things to share with me this time?"
Qian Zeyang had been warned by his father a long time ago that Uncle Shi would definitely steal his things. He didn't take it seriously at first, but now.
"Grandpa Shi, if you want to eat, why don't you come to my shop? It's so troublesome to bring it back by yourself." Qian Zeyang immediately dropped what he was holding and ran over.
"Go away, little brat. Don't be as annoying as your dad." Uncle Shi turned around and faced Qian Zeyang.
"No way, my dad is not annoying." Qian Zeyang pretended to be stupid.
"Okay, why are you arguing? It gives me a headache." Grandma He didn't want to listen to them quarreling. "Boss Qian, have you figured out the bill? If you have, go to the utility room and weigh the snake." That's where the big bill is.
"Okay, I'll go right away." Qian Zeyang came here just for these snakes. Snakes have been the best-selling item in his store recently, and those snake dishes have helped him bring back a lot of business.
Mei Xue also stood up and took Qian Zeyang over. Mei Xue also called An Wen.
All the snakes here were caught by her and An Wen together, and there are quite a few of them.
There are basically a dozen bags of different sizes. You can imagine how many snakes they have caught in the past half month.
As soon as Qian Zeyang entered the room, he was almost vomited by the odor, "Oh my God, this smell..." Finally, he couldn't stand it anymore and ran out.
Fortunately, he brought a few people with him, "Hurry up and go in and help get it out." The smell, forget it, he couldn't stand it.
Hearing the vomiting sound in the yard, Mei Xue rolled her eyes and said, "Jiaoqing."
An Wen said nothing, but there was a smile in his eyes.
Strength lies in numbers, and they quickly took out the bags of snakes. Each bag was quite heavy, and at first the men planned to take one bag each, but...
“So heavy?”
"Well, there are basically about ten snakes in there." An Wen kindly reminded.
Now no one dares to carry it with one hand.
After a dozen bags were brought out, An Liang and the others all gathered around, each of them looking very envious.
"Let's weigh it." Mei Xue said to Qian Zeyang.
After saying that, she turned and went into the house, opened all the windows inside, and left the back door open to get rid of the smell.
Qian Zeyang instructed his men to weigh each bag, write down the quantity, and then total it up later.
Of course, An Wen also went forward to help. He also took out a notebook and wrote down the numbers himself.
Soon the weight of the snake was found out, it was almost seven hundred pounds, and at five yuan per pound, An Wen's heart was beating fast.
He took the notebook to his sister-in-law and said, "Sister-in-law, is this so much?" He had been catching in the mountains these days and had guessed that there might be around two hundred pounds, but he didn't expect it.
Mei Xue took a look and smiled: "Not bad, about this number." This time Mei Xue also caught a lot of poisonous snakes, which are more expensive than non-venomous snakes.
Walking to Qian Zeyang, Mei Xue asked, "Uncle Zhao said last time that he wanted some poisonous snakes. Here are three bags of poisonous snakes. Do you want to open them and take a look?"
Qian Zeyang shook his head, "I believe you and won't watch it." He still remembered when he returned home, his mother told him about his father's embarrassing behavior, and he didn't want to embarrass himself.
Besides, I’ll just go back to the store and let the craftsmen open it and see everything. There’s no need to be in a hurry to embarrass myself.
There are still so many people here.
Grandpa Shi, who had been sitting nearby for a long time, jumped up and said, "Xiaoxue, can we have a snake for lunch?" He missed the taste of the food in this restaurant.
Mei Xue was well prepared, "Uncle Shi, grandma has already stewed a pot of dragon and phoenix soup, can't you smell it?" It was rare to see grandma so happy, and Mei Xue had a very good impression of Uncle Shi.
"Really?" He really didn't smell it. He turned around and looked at Sister He with an aggrieved face, "Sister He, why didn't you tell me? Why can't I smell it?"
Grandma He smiled, "I knew you would come. I sealed the pot a long time ago. It's strange that you could smell it."
It turned out that Grandma He did it on purpose. She covered the soup in the middle pot with a lid, sealed it all around with a towel, and simmered it over low heat. It would be strange if the flavor could come out.
"Ah, you can still seal the smell, I don't believe it." After saying that, Uncle Shi "flew" into the kitchen.
Grandma He was afraid that he would ruin the soup in the pot, so she ran in too, "Don't touch my pot."
The quarrel between the two old people added a bit of color to this lively courtyard.
Under Mei Xue's guidance, Qian Zeyang took out the bag of poisonous snakes. Poisonous snakes were expensive to begin with, so he had been prepared for this.
After finally tallying up the total bill, Qian Zeyang took a deep breath and thought to himself: "Fortunately, fortunately I brought enough money." He knew that he would have a big harvest, so he prepared some extra cash on hand this time.
It's on the shelves. No matter whether the performance is good or bad, I hope everyone enjoys watching it. I love you guys. Please give me your monthly votes.
