Chapter 181 Preparation
Chapter 181 Preparation
Old Mrs. Zhou didn’t recognize the words above, but she knew a few of the words with fewer strokes.
There is also a red official seal on it, so there is no doubt about it.
She smiled and talked to the village chief, handing the deed in her hand to Zhou Mingshu who was standing beside her.
This was the first time Zhou Mingshu saw a land deed. It not only had words on it, but also the general outline of the land.
At first glance, it is relatively clear.
When Zhou Mingshu finished reading the contract, he looked up and saw the village chief Wang Fugui walking away.
"Grandma, now that the deed has been issued, does that mean we can start transforming this land?"
Zhou Mingshu was already getting impatient.
"Of course. Before, this piece of land had no owner, so we piled the firewood there. Now this piece of land belongs to us, so it's more legitimate to put things there."
Old Mrs. Zhou took the deed handed over by her granddaughter, rolled it up and put it away.
"There is so much grass on the wasteland outside. Why don't we cut it all and dry it to keep as winter grass for the donkeys and rabbits."
Except for the field where they had threshed the grain, the weeds in other places had grown as high as their thighs.
There was also a lot of yew, thistle, etc. on the ground...it was a mess and difficult to clean up.
These grasses can be considered as a kind of herbal medicine, but these things are too common. Even if they are recycled into the system, they can’t be exchanged for many points.
It is better to store it as winter grass.
"Okay, this can be considered killing two birds with one stone. The corn in the field will take a few days to sprout, and even if we want to plant seedlings, it will take several days. Let's deal with this wasteland."
This is how Mrs. Zhou arranged it.
Liu spoke at the right time, "Mom, this field will grow grass every few days. We pull out the big grass, and then the small grass will grow. The big grass in the front hasn't been dealt with yet, and the place in the back that has been dealt with is full of small grass. I think our family hasn't decided what to plant yet. Once these are ready, we will deal with the grass, and then sow the seeds. This way, the grass will not grow so fast."
What my aunt-in-law said makes sense. Now the grass is growing wildly after the rain and is difficult to control.
The wheat left in the field has sprouted and grown a lot.
"This..." Old Mrs. Zhou felt that what her daughter-in-law said made sense, but she still looked at San Ya. She wanted to hear San Ya's opinion.
"Grandma, I think what my aunt said makes sense. We should treat as much land as we can to avoid wasting our efforts. We will get tired if we work hard. We might as well stay at home and do nothing with this little time. If we want to prepare winter grass for the little donkeys, the grass elsewhere is more abundant than in the wasteland."
Zhou Mingshu paused and said, "We can first clear out a vegetable plot. Our pepper seeds are ready. I'll help them germinate and then we can plant them."
"Okay, let's make a vegetable patch first. I have a lot of seeds here, so let's plant them all."
The matter was decided in this way.
There is no rush to comb the vegetable fields, we can do it slowly later. Now all the corn seeds have been planted, and everyone has put their greatest thought into it.
Liu plans to make a small amount of jelly in the next two days and go to the town to try it out. It’s time to start this jelly business.
Mrs. Zhou nodded and agreed, "There is nothing urgent at home now. You can do whatever you want to do. There is no need to rush about these trivial matters at home."
That night, Liu and Zhu made two bowls of jelly and tried to adjust the flavor. Everyone found it delicious.
"I just didn't add cilantro. We don't grow it at home. I'll buy some next time I go to town. It will definitely taste better if I add it."
Liu said with a smile.
"Aunt, some people don't like to eat things like chopped green onions, chopped coriander, and chopped garlic, while some do. If they don't let you add them, you shouldn't add them. Everything should be based on the customer's wishes. Don't force them to add these seasonings."
This was something Zhou Mingshu suddenly thought of. She was afraid that her aunt-in-law would be stubborn.
"Sanya, don't worry. We have to maintain good relationships with our customers when we do business. Everyone has different tastes. I understand that. We must give priority to them."
Liu had been in business for a while, so she understood these principles.
The next morning, there was a commotion in the woodshed.
Only one table was left of the original braised meat making equipment, as the rest were sold by them.
Boss Zhou and Mrs. Liu put it in the woodshed, and now it is time for it to see the light of day again.
They brought the basin and scrubbed it back and forth with a rag several times, making sure every gap was clean.
When they are in the food business, the first thing they want is that the food must be clean and also taste good.
If someone gets an upset after eating your food, they won’t come to you again.
After clearing the table, Liu and Zhu also prepared the seasonings.
Mr. Zhou selected a bamboo as thick as a bowl, cut it at the joints one by one, and polished it to make neat seasoning jars for them.
The bowl for mixing vegetables is also prepared, washed and hung aside to dry.
Zhou Mingshu found it very interesting and ran over to help.
"Mother, what are you looking for?"
She watched her mother hunching over and looking for something in the kitchen storage room.
"I'm looking for chopsticks and spoons. Your grandfather made a lot of them for future use, but now I don't know where they are. I searched everywhere but couldn't find them. If I can't find them again, I'll have to go to the street to buy new ones."
Zhu was so anxious that beads of sweat appeared on her face.
I didn't rush to prepare it because I thought I had it at home.
I was going to go to the street tomorrow, but when I got there I couldn't find it. It was so frustrating.
"Mother, don't worry. If it's there, it must still be there. I'll help you find it."
So the mother and daughter searched the kitchen again.
Finally, Zhou Mingshu found a suspicious cloth bag in the corner. She took it open and saw that it contained chopsticks and a spoon.
Unfortunately, many of them are moldy.
This...can it still be used?
Zhou Mingshu didn't have time to think and directly bought some bamboo chopsticks and wooden spoons from the system.
Then he secretly hid the moldy chopsticks.
"Mother, I found it. Look, is this it?"
Zhou Mingshu took the thing out of the cloth bag as if he was presenting a treasure.
"Oh, it's this cloth bag. I put it there myself." Zhu was so happy that she said she remembered clearly putting it in the kitchen.
"I didn't expect that after so long, these chopsticks and spoons are still so new. I'll boil some water to heat them up, and you can straighten the baskets."
Zhu left the storage room in a hurry, and Zhou Mingshu had just enough time to deal with the moldy chopsticks.
