Song Yiren got up from the bed. "Hiss", her muscles were sore all over her body, which made her scream.

When Aunt Li heard the sound, she hurried into the room and helped Song Yiren sit up.

"Yiren, you are still pregnant. If you want me to tell me that you can't be so tired!"

"Aunt, look at this family, the family is barely barred. You also said that I am pregnant and I am about to have a child when I am in autumn. If the family is still like this, the three of us will starve to death!"

"How can that be! The villagers in the village will not watch you starve to death!"

"Aunt, if you don't help the poor, how can you rely on others to help you live?"

Aunt Li sighed, feeling that Yiren is indeed different from her previous weakness and bullying. Maybe she left the person who could rely on and took the child with her! Aunt Li thought to herself.

"By the way, aunt, this is the money you picked mushrooms and wild vegetables yesterday and helped me see the child." Song Yiren took out twenty copper plates from his body.

"Yiren...is this...for me?"

"Yes, please help me see if the child is worth five copper plates, and the rest are those who pick mushrooms and wild vegetables."

"Yiren...this...this is too much!"

These are twenty copper plates! You should know that at this time, the heavy labor at home is only twenty-five copper plates for a day. Although the farming period is busy, the labor price will rise.

But I was an old lady who took my child to pick some mushrooms and wild vegetables. She was not tired, and it was just a matter of the time. She earned more than a dozen or twenty copper coins this day, which made Aunt Li really afraid to take them.

"Auntie, please take it, you deserve it!" Song Yiren said.

Seeing that Song Yiren didn't seem to be joking, Aunt Li gritted her teeth and said, "Yiren, then I'll really accept it!"

"Of course! This is your labor income, aunt, don't be embarrassed!"

After taking the copper coins from Song Yiren's hand, Aunt Li couldn't hide the excitement on her face. She thought to herself that this girl would give her so much money and she would have to help her in the future. Oh, she is still a pregnant woman! Her eldest daughter-in-law is about the same month as this girl. Not to mention that she is rich in gold and jade, she has no heavy work at all, so she embroidered her at home.

"Auntie, today is still the same. Don't make dinner. You can take it back after I've made it!"

"No, Yiren, after you gave me so much money, how could I eat your meal!"

"Aunt! Don't be polite to me. I didn't make it for your family alone. It's too late to make this cumbersome food tomorrow morning. I'll make it tonight and sell it to the town tomorrow morning. Besides, we have to eat it ourselves!" Song Yiren thought that Aunt Li would definitely be embarrassed, so she had prepared this set of words long ago.

Sure enough, Aunt Li agreed after she finished speaking, but she still stretched out her hands to help Song Yiren.

Song Yiren cut the pork belly with skin into small pieces, and the fat and thinness were mixed. He added water to the pot and the meat was under cold water. He added a few raw eggs and a small piece of Huaixiang, which is modern star anise. He poured some shochu that he bought when he made pig trotters last time. He boiled it on high heat and skimmed the foam. He did not pour out the soup, but just put the broth and the meat separately.

After listening to Song Yiren's instructions, Aunt Li was cutting the mushrooms picked today on the chopping board. Song Yiren chose some of the mushrooms that were full of thought and asked Aunt Li to cut them into small pieces. Then cut some wild garlic and onions to replace modern onions - there were no onions in this era.

Everything was ready, Song Yiren washed the pot again, put a lot of lard, put the wild garlic and green onion in, stir-fry slowly over low heat, and kept flipping with a shovel in his hands.

"Aunt Li, in addition to the low heat at this time, you must stir and turn it around continuously, otherwise the wild garlic and green onions will easily become paste. If the paste tastes good, this dish will fail!"

"Oh, I know!" Aunt Li responded quickly.

Song Yiren thought that one was to repay Aunt Li's kindness, and the other was that she would definitely need help in the future. Aunt Li was honest and kind, and had known the original owner for many years, knew the roots and took care of herself in every way. She should teach Aunt Li some in terms of emotion and reason.

"Fry it in the pot for a while, and the wild garlic and green onion will turn golden yellow. This is enough. Don't be too long, otherwise it will be bitter."

Aunt Li nodded and stared at the stove intently. "The things Yiren made are delicious, and I learn them myself. I can help her and make them for my daughter-in-law to eat when I look back!" Aunt Li thought happily.

Song Yiren put out the golden wild garlic, scallion slices and lard in the pot, leaving only some grease at the bottom of the pot, and boiled the pot again. After the temperature rose, it changed to low heat and poured the pork belly that had just been cooked into the pot.

With a "squeak", the water vapor fell into the oil pan.

"Be careful not to splash the oil at this time!" Because the sound of squeaking was very loud, Song Yiren could only speak loudly to Aunt Li.

After stir-frying until the surface of the pork belly turned golden and some fat was consumed, she poured the diced mushrooms cut by Aunt Li, continued to stir-fry, and then poured the previously fried wild garlic and green onion slices, and stir-fry evenly again.

Finally, I poured the broth I had cooked before, peeled the cooked eggs, added salt, big pepper (spicy pepper), green onion slices and other seasonings, and added another piece of stone honey.

Two quarters of an hour later, the yard was filled with fragrance, and their yard was just a circle of fences, so naturally it could not surround the smell.

Her family is at the entrance of the village, and can be seen and smelled by people coming and going. In recent days, Song Yiren often goes to the town again. The baskets of rice and flour are back, which has attracted people's eyes. Today, the fragrance has spread so far, so naturally the Ma family, who lives opposite Aunt Li's house, can also smell it.

"Hmph, it's really a dog's belly that has two taels of sesame oil. If there are two copper plates, it's time to open up. If it's not the same, an abandoned woman will take money and eat meat!" Zheng, the eldest daughter-in-law of the Ma family, stood in her own yard, rolled her eyes towards the entrance of the village, turned around and headed towards the west wing.

I didn't expect to turn around but bump into my stupid husband. "Oh, you're so dead, why are you standing behind me without a sound?"

"I... I don't listen to you, I just came back from digging wild vegetables..." Zheng followed Song Yiren to the town two days ago and found out that she was selling cakes. It turned out that selling cakes is so profitable, she didn't know how to make that pie, and putting eggs in the cakes was also wasted. She felt so distressed that she planned to make wild vegetables and cornmeal cakes to sell, so she didn't let her husband dig some wild vegetables and came back.

The Ma family is not a local, but they have lived in Songjiazhuang for three generations. The earliest old man Ma came to flee. He used to be a hunter at home and had some skills in hunting animals. A family in the village married his daughter to Old Man Ma.

Although they have the skills, they can't resist the couple's child's child. They are both sons. The eldest is thirty years old, and the youngest is only thirteen. The family is poor and there is not much to choose between marrying a wife. The eldest married a famous and stingy girl from the neighboring village, which was the Zheng family.

After another quarter of an hour, the braised pork was stewed. Song Yiren took off the lid, put a bowl of braised pork and eggs, and handed it to Aunt Li.

"Aunt, go home and steam a pot of brown rice and mix it with it!"

"Hey! It smells so fragrant. The second brother is back today, so he can also taste your skills!"

"Brother Jinbao is back today! Then serve another bowl!" As he said that, he was about to get the bowl, but Aunt Li hurriedly stopped her.

"Yiren, don't worry, you have to sell them for money!" After a long time of pulling, he finally put an extra egg on and took it back to Aunt Li.

"Auntie, stop pulling!" Song Yiren couldn't push and pull, and could only say: "Brother Jinbao has the strength to do it. When he comes back, please ask my aunt to ask Brother Jinbao to help me!"
