Springtime Farming: A Happy Wife At Home

They all laughed.

Ms. Fang glared at her and said half-scoldingly, ‘You remember everything about food!”

Yang Xiaoni tried to explain weakly. “Brother Sanlang knows more than me!” Everyone laughed even harder.

Ms. Fang was very amused too. “You are almost the same, don’t blame each other!”

Qiao Xuan smiled. “Qi knows the mountains best and we have been there many times, so we are more lucky than others. Most importantly, we are living in harmony and hence, fortune favors us!”

That made Ms. Fang feel quite glad. She nodded and praised Qiao Xuan.

Qiao Xuan suddenly thought of something and smiled. “Mom, I think that we can make some smoked sausage and meat, since it is getting colder.”

True!

They were all reminded of this and nodded in agreement.

“We have a lot of money now, so we can make a lot of smoked sausage and meat!”

“True, they can be preserved for a long time. We can put them into the jar and it should last us at least half a year!’

“I am already drooling over the steamed smoked sausage and fried smoked sausage with garlic sprouts!”

Ms. Fang smiled too. “It is time to make them. You should go to the town to buy the meat, buy as much as you want! I will give you some money and we can make enough for our home and also to take some back to our natal families. ‘ I

They had already bought one bull, one donkey and the wagon was ready too. So it was quite handy for them to go into the town.

They would store some smoked meat and sausage in the past, no more than 10 kgs, which would be finished after a few days.

This year, things were different.

Hearing that they could take the meat back to their own parents, Ms. Xu felt so happy and started to come up with some ideas.

Qiao Xuan was very interested and most knowledgeable about food.

She was living a very easy life as long as the Qiao Family was out of sight. They had money now, and all the food she bought was the most original, pure, green and pollution-free. The taste was really good too.

“Let’s buy meat to make sausages, meat, pork liver, pork belly, pig heads, and pork knuckles. These can also be made into smoked meat, which is delicious.”

“Also, we can make smoked ducks and fish. Let’s pick some big ducks and long fish, which should taste better than pork!”

Ms. Fang and the others were all shocked.

No one in the village had made this kind of smoked meat before.

Yang Xiaoni smiled in agreement. “Fifth Sister-in-law is right. Her words make me feel so greedy. Mom, let’s make them please!”

“Yeah, we can fish in the river, find big fish!”

“True!”

“Okay, okay!” Ms. Fang smiled. “Let’s make them all! Buy ten big ducks home when you shop for meat on the street!”

They all smiled and nodded in agreement.

So, the next day, Shao Sanlang and Yang Xiaoni went into the town to buy meat and ducks.

Qiao Xuan and Shao Yunduan went into the mountains to dig winter bamboos together with Taotao and Qi.

Qi had spoken about the winter bamboo the day before, and he knew where wild bamboo forests were.

Those were good things that should not be missed.

Hence, they went into the mountains to dig winter bamboo.

Digging bamboo needed experience. It was not that easy and did not always guarantee a good harvest.

But the winter bamboo in the soil was not a problem for Qiao Xuan..
