"One Lihua, I want two." How could just one be enough? The crab was so fat and fresh. Wasn't she still not satisfied just now?
Zhao Dashu carried a basket and went to pick river gourds. Song sent Lihua away to play and looked at Zhao Xiaoyu, "My daughter, you didn't let Lihua tell Chunmiao, do you want to sell this?"
Song was about to speak but stopped, Zhao Xiaoyu was annoyed that she was halfway through speaking, "Mom, what do you think, just tell me!"
"I can't hide it. Everyone knows it's a river gourd at first sight. Not only in the village, but even in the county, everyone knows it!"
It was such a simple thing, but she thought her mother didn't want to earn this money.
"I know him even when he's wearing clothes, so why don't we just take him off and sell him naked!"
Song didn't understand and her eyes flashed with question marks.
"Just peel the shell off and sell the meat."
Song suddenly realized that he could sell meat. The meat of river gourds was indeed delicious and someone would buy it.
"We sell it for the same price as pork."
Zhao Xiaoyu looked up at the sky in silence. How much meat is there in a crab? It sells for dozens of coins per pound. Has she ever thought about how many pounds they can peel in a day? How much will this sell for?
"Let me think about how to sell it!"
Before the two of them finished talking, Zhao Dashu came over with a basket in his hand, "Dad, are there many gourds in the mud?"
"A lot. I can easily catch a few with a stick. They are all very big. Except for naughty kids who sometimes catch two to play with, no one usually pays attention to them."
"Come on, let's carry a basket and go pick it up."
"No, didn't you say that we can't eat too much of this?"
"Pick some to make sauce and see if I can sell it."
Want to make money? Zhao Dashu became excited and said, "I'll go right away."
"Dad, I'll go with you to take a look."
Lihua hugged Zhao Dashu's legs, her little neck tilted high, "Dad, I want to go too."
"Okay, there's no one there anyway."
Before leaving, Zhao Xiaoyu asked Song to wash and steam the river gourd.
"Mom, remember to add some ginger slices!"
"I know."
It’s so simple. How can you not learn it after seeing it once?
In the mud.
Zhao Dashu picked up a wooden stick and said, "Girl, these lumps of earth here are actually river gourds, some of which are hidden underground."
He poked around randomly and saw a few large clods of earth moving. Zhao Dashu picked them up and put them in the basket.
Zhao Xiaoyu looked at these clods of earth with golden light in his eyes.
There are treasures everywhere in Laozhu Village, but no one knows their value. Alas, such a big crab actually died of old age, it's just... a waste of nature's gifts.
In just two quarters of an hour, the father, his two daughters and his two daughters had picked up a large basket of "earth lumps".
As soon as he got home, Zhao Dashu would consciously carry his chickens to the well to wash. "Xiaoyu, I haven't built the chicken shed yet. Where will our chickens sleep at night?"
"Just get some straw and make do for a few days. It doesn't matter if it doesn't rain."
Zhao Dashu heard that it was raining and didn't want to wait any longer. "No, no, what if it rains? Get some river gourds and I'll go build a nest."
From now on, we will rely on these chickens for eggs at home.
"Girl, do these need to be steamed?" Looking at the river gourds in the wooden barrel, Song was stunned.
"Yes, mother. We still have three of the small jars we bought a few days ago. Wash them, blanch them in boiling water, drain them, and put the crab meat in them later."
