[Suyu’s reward will be added]

The few people in the village quickly fished out half a bucket of stone snails. The stone snails had been cleaned by several people, and the shells were very clean.

The stone snails are very big, and we caught so many of them in just such a short time, which shows that there are a lot of stone snails in the river in Zhujiacun.

Snails and spring bamboo shoots are both good things on their own. Even if you don't make fusilli, snails can still occupy the top ten must-order modern late-night snacks all year round.

The popularity is evident.

The side dishes are there, but the main ingredient is rice noodles. Gu Qing has never seen rice noodles in Gujia Village, and I think there should be no rice noodles in Zhujia Village.

Fortunately, Gu Qing's hometown in his previous life was very fond of rice noodles. For breakfast every day, they had everything from chopped meat powder, fish meal to braised rice noodles and cold noodles.

Regarding how to make handmade rice noodles, Gu Qing has also seen workshops in the town do it. First, fresh rice is soaked for 3 hours, and then ground into rice slurry with a stone mill.

During the grinding process, grind it as finely as possible, so that the taste will be better.

After grinding, the batter should not be lumpy, and finally the mixed batter is fed into the rice noodle press.

"Zhu Lizheng, when the bamboo shoots appear on the mountain, find someone to go to Gujiacun and send me a message. Then I will arrange for someone to come over and buy a large amount."

"Mom and Dad, our family still has six mouths to eat. You just gave the fourth child his wages. How can you let them take away all the food in the house? If I take it away today,

If you haven't come back yet, how can you survive this life?"

Xiaowu didn't understand and asked: "But she is obviously the second brother's wife. We have a sister-in-law. Why do we call her princess?"

I bought forty or fifty kilograms of millet, five ducks, five chickens, twenty eggs, and two fish.

Zhu's mother raised her head and was a little surprised. She remembered that the second child had the same soft character as them. How could he become so strong now?

But being strong is good, but she just couldn't be strong all her life, so she was bullied everywhere. Now that she is old, she still has to look at the eyes of a son-in-law who comes to her, her life is over, and she will rely on her second son to make a living for the family in the future.

Mother Zhu walked over silently to light the fire.

But there were very few people in the village who ate these. He went to several stores to buy these seven or eight kilograms.

It's not yet the beginning of spring, and the bamboo shoots haven't sprouted yet, so everything is still early.

In the kitchen, Zhu Han had a gloomy look on his face, scooped out half a kilogram of white flour, added water to top with it, and cracked two eggs in and stirred them well.

"What's going on? Dad, tell me!"

This boy from the Zhu family is really lucky!

With a cold face, Zhu Han gave Zhu Lian ten taels of silver and asked him to quickly go to the village to buy some food, chickens, ducks and eggs and so on.

Zhu Pian quickly bought a lot of food from the village. He had stayed at Gu's house for so long and knew that the princess only ate white flour and rice every day.

Zhu's mother was scolded by Zhu Han without saying a word, so she huddled in the corner and silently wiped her tears.

"Second brother" Zhu Yin, the third eldest child of the Zhu family, said angrily: "Didn't you realize that the eldest sister and her family are not here today? Yesterday the eldest brother-in-law ransacked the house and took it back to his parents' home along with the wages brought back by the fourth brother four years ago!

"

I just don't know if the princess is easy to get along with, "Mom is old and no longer useful. When I was young, I couldn't support the family, and now it's even more..."

Zhu Han turned the dough over and explained patiently: "Because she is the princess and the royal family. And we are just common people."

There are seven brothers and sisters in Zhu Han's family, and his parents are now nearly fifty years old. The youngest brother in the family is the same age as Gu Nuo.

Zhu Mu huddled aside, hesitating, and didn't hum a single word for a long time.

For this big family, not even a grain of millet can be found in the rice vat during the Chinese New Year.

Yes, if the conditions were not worse than his family, who would be willing to marry into his family?

They had heard that the princess was so beautiful and the jewelry she wore on her head was made of gold. Just a few buckles would be enough for them to live for a year.

When several children saw the fire in the kitchen, they immediately gathered around.

"Second brother, fourth brother, did you bring something to eat when you came back?" Zhu Xiaoqi knew it was rude to ask, but he was really hungry. He hadn't eaten even a drop of rice from last night to today. He was holding his stomach and eating nothing.

A face that looked weak from hunger.

It is a large barrel with dense holes all over the bottom. Rice milk is poured into the barrel. A heavy wooden board is pressed down on top. If the top board is not heavy enough, stones will be placed on it to squeeze the rice milk out of the small holes in the barrel.

Fall into a pot full of boiling water below.

But look at how thin Xiao Wu, Xiao Liu and Xiao Qi have become. The princess’s younger brother is also as big as Xiao Qi, but his height reaches my chest. Our Xiao Wu is not as tall as anyone else.

.”

Mother Zhu wiped away her tears: "There is nothing you can do about your sister. Our family is too poor. Let your sister get married. The matchmaker said several times. People either dislike your sister for being too old, or they dislike your sister for having too many brothers.

, I don’t want to marry. It’s hard to find someone who is willing to marry. That family is poorer than ours..."

The same method can also be used to hand-make sweet potato flour, potato flour, which is the original powder of hot and sour noodles.

When these people saw that he was buying it, they were very enthusiastic. They helped him carry the things to the yard and refused to leave. They stood in the yard and craned their necks to look in.

"Second brother, are these white noodles for your sister-in-law?" Xiao Wu asked after swallowing his saliva.

"Okay, okay!" What Zhu Lizheng was waiting for was Gu Qing's words.

The rice milk is pressed into threads, put into the pot and cooked to form mature rice noodles. Then use long chopsticks to pick it out, cool it with cold water, drain the water to revive it, then rub it loosely, dry the surface moisture in the shade, and the rice noodles are made.

In the kitchen, Zhu Pian and Zhu Han looked at the rice vat and asked, "Mom, what's going on? Didn't I have someone bring me my wages back a year ago? Why didn't I buy rice?"

Hearing him mention the word "sister-in-law", Zhu Han's face became a little brighter, "No, this is for you to eat. And she is the princess now, you can no longer call her sister-in-law, you have to call her like everyone else."

Princess!"

Zhu Han was so angry when he saw it. At this moment, he finally understood why the princess was so angry sometimes when they clearly didn't do anything. That was because she was so angry.

"But this is too much!" Zhu Han followed Gu Qing, and subtly reflected the shadow of Gu Qing on his body: "The eldest sister, my wife, my third brother, and my third brother will follow you to farm at home, and the fourth brother will follow me and earn my monthly salary.

, I gave all my wages to you.

Xiaowu asked again: "Even my second brother, do you want to call her princess?"

"Yes!" Zhu Han nodded and took the noodles out of the pot. Several younger brothers immediately stepped forward and each took a piece. They didn't care about burning it and stuffed it into their mouths.

"Aren't you hot?" Zhu Lian was shocked, "How many days have you not eaten?"

"On New Year's Eve, my eldest brother-in-law packed all the food at home, leaving only a small and half bowl of millet for us to make porridge. Yesterday, we even finished the porridge..."
