Chapter 184 How to Eat an Egg? Tomato Appears
When the villagers heard this, they immediately expressed their support.
"Thanks to you, the Qiao family, our crops were saved. When the Song family made trouble before, we spoke up for you. If the Song family continues to make trouble now, we will directly help you."
"Yes, the whole village will join in the fight. If the Song family dares to act so arrogantly, we will beat them all so hard that they can't get out of the fields for a month or two."
"You can rest assured. The flood prevention plan has been successfully completed. Yun Ni will no longer have any connection with the Song family. You don't have to worry about any problems with the divorce letter. The entire village supports your Qiao family."
"Thank you, thank you everyone." The two elders were so moved that their eyes were slightly wet.
Their only baby girl can stay at home as long as she wants.
The villagers still refused to take the things back and insisted on putting them in the yard and house of the Qiao family. The Qiao family stopped them and refused to accept them, and the two sides remained in a stalemate.
"We really don't need these at home right now. It's been a while since anyone has been willing to eat meat, so why not take them all home?"
"No, no, if you don't take anything, we won't be able to live peacefully. You know, Jian'er not only saved our grain this year, but we don't have to worry about losing grain in the future. This is a great contribution."
"It doesn't matter whether you need it or not. This is a token of our appreciation and a way of repaying our debt. If we don't repay a great favor, it will reduce our blessings." Some people even spoke a little more harshly.
Mrs. Qiao thought for a moment and said, "How about this? You can keep the pickled vegetables and other things. We don't want the chicken, duck, dried meat, etc. Every family has a few children to grow up. How about you just give us a few eggs? That's the biggest concession we can make."
Seeing that the Qiao family was so determined, the villagers had no choice but to go back and exchange them for eggs.
Old Mrs. Qiao only asked to give a few, but they took out all the eggs in their home, and some even gave more than 30 eggs.
As the villagers arrived one after another, the two large bamboo baskets in the Qiao family's yard were filled with eggs.
Old Mrs. Qiao was completely bewildered. "There are at least a thousand eggs. How can we eat them all?"
"It's not good to keep eggs for too long. We can eat thirty a day and finish them in a month." Feng said.
"Thinking back to the past, our family's biggest wish for a meal was to have egg soup. The eggs laid by the old hens had to be exchanged for some salt and oil, and we could only eat a few eggs all year round." Mrs. Lu sighed.
Now you can enjoy your meal to your heart's content.
After all the villagers left, Qiao Jianer finally came out of the room to get some fresh air.
Looking at so many eggs, she wondered if the tomatoes in the space should come in handy.
Tomato egg drop soup, scrambled eggs with tomatoes, poached eggs with tomato sauce, steamed eggs with tomato and minced meat——
Just thinking about it makes my mouth water.
But she couldn't take out the tomatoes right away, so she had to use some sleight of hand.
"Grandma, the villagers are all going up the mountain to pick mushrooms now. Let's go too."
Just in the past two days, some villagers went up the mountain and found some sporadically.
There will be a small outbreak in the next few days.
The villagers are ready.
"Brother Xiao Meng, Sister Zhizhi, let's go to the mountains together to pick some mushrooms. We haven't eaten them for a long time." Qiao Jianer suggested.
I will go to the county town to set up a stall tomorrow.
"I was just about to say this. The weather is fine today and many villagers have set out. We can't fall behind." Xiao Meng went to find the backpack as soon as he heard it.
Qiao Zhizhi also carried a basket and handed another basket to Qiao Jianer.
"Go on, go on. I've been staying at home for the past half month and I'm so bored."
"Let's go to different mountains. You three will stay in the nearby mountains, and we will go to the farther mountains in the west." Dayong Dacheng was also making preparations.
"Then let's go to the mountain in the east." Qiao Laoer and Wan took action.
If I can still make a few taels of money every day like before, that would not be bad.
Others went to the county town to set up stalls to sell snacks, while those at home went up the mountain to look for mushrooms.
Some people were left at home, and most of the Qiao family went up the mountain.
Almost every household in the village went out to the village. During the post-rain period, mushrooms did not grow as much as the first time. In addition, there were so many people in the village, so after most of the morning, each household only found a few mushrooms, and some did not even find any.
They were all a little discouraged and pinned their hopes on the next few days. If there was not much growth in the next few days, then the mushroom season would be over this year.
Alas, it’s really hard to pick up money.
Qiao Jianer's purpose of going to the mountain was not to find these mushrooms, although Da Meng and Zhizhi were looking for them very hard.
"Oh, we've climbed over a mountain, but we can't find a single mushroom." Qiao Zhizhi began to feel discouraged.
Xiao Meng: "Yeah, I thought it would grow a lot after the rain. I remember it grew a lot after the rain in the past."
"I'll go over there and take a look." Qiao Jianer found a more secluded place.
When they got there, there were short trees on all sides to shelter them. Seeing that there was no one around, Qiao Jianer took out the strawberries and tomatoes in the space.
Strawberries are precious, so she put them all in the basket, filling it up.
As for tomatoes, she first got out 50 kilograms. Of course, she couldn't just pile them on the ground. Instead, she transplanted the tomato seedlings that grew 50 kilograms of tomatoes. The tomato seedlings in the space had well-developed branches and extended very long. They could bear 10 kilograms of fruit each time, so transplanting five plants was enough.
However, these tomato seedlings are supported by racks in the space, otherwise they would not be able to support themselves.
Just transplanted, the tomato seedlings are laden with fruits, some of which have fallen to the ground.
Qiao Jianer did not move the racks out, otherwise it would be too obvious to show signs of counterfeiting. It is impossible for someone to go to the mountain specifically to take care of tomatoes and set up the racks, leaving the red tomatoes there without picking them.
"Come here quickly." Qiao Jianer shouted in surprise.
Xiao Meng and Zhizhi thought she had found some mushrooms, so they ran over quickly.
As soon as I arrived, I saw red everywhere. Some were in the basket and were smaller, while some were on the branches and were very large.
"Wow, what are these?"
"It's something delicious. I just found it." Qiao Jianer handed each of them a strawberry.
The two of them held it, but were a little hesitant to eat it.
"Sickle, this thing is blood red, is it really okay?" asked Qiao Zhizhi.
"What's the problem?" Qiao Jianer put them into his mouth one by one and ate them with relish.
It's blood red, so bright red it's about to burst into tears.
Seeing her eating so calmly, the two of them also picked up strawberries and started eating.
After taking a bite, my eyes lit up, my mouth was filled with fragrance, it was fresh and juicy, with a unique hint of sourness, which lingered in my mouth for a long time.
"Sickle, what is this? It tastes so good."
"Let's call it strawberry. You guys eat as much as you want first, and then we can take all these things home."
Qiao Xiaomeng and Qiao Zhizhi sat on the ground, eating one bite at a time, their eyes shining. It was a very happy feeling.
Each of us ate two pounds until we couldn't eat any more.
They then looked at Tomato: "Sickle, what is this?"
