It started to snow outside again, and snowflakes were flying all over the sky, covering the entire earth. After the snow fell, Jinghan had no chance to go up the mountain, so he could only stay at home. Under Jingya's attention, Jinghan picked up the needle and thread again and began to learn to make up the sewing. At the beginning, Xue naturally didn't expect her to learn anything, but just took some old clothes to let her learn to make up the patch. Jinghan pinched the needle and sewed it one by one, which was quite good.

Jingya took the time to look up at Jinghan, and saw that the patch she had patched was quite normal. Although the stitches were slightly not neat, it was OK. "Isn't this good? You are not stupid, but you are not patient. Practice slowly. After a while, I will teach you how to sew socks and insoles, and learn little by little. As long as you can hold on, you won't be worse than me."

Jinghan nodded. She had a very upset temper. If she competed with something, it would not be over if she didn't understand it. Now there was nothing to do, so she naturally competed with needlework. "Sister, I understand, I don't believe it anymore. Can this needlework still stump me?"

Jingya smiled, then lowered her head to embroider. Jinghan was sewing patches there, and the two of them did their own things, and they didn't disturb each other. Just as Xue came in, holding a dustpan in her hand, and there were some soybeans in the dustpan. "Oh, don't say that, our Jinghan's needle and thread are still OK. Practice it well in the future, and it should be good." Some people learn needle and thread from the beginning, while others are crooked. Jinghan is okay, at least the stitches are quite straight.

When Jinghan saw that her mother had brought so many beans in, she asked, "Mom, what are you doing?"

"Raw some bean sprouts. Now the sauerkraut is not yet marinated. I get tired of eating cabbage and potatoes all day long. I will change the shapes." Xue is very attentive in cooking and always makes them in a variety of ways. Unlike some women, cabbage is stewed in a large pot at once and eats the last meal.

When Jinghan heard this, her eyes widened, "Mom, how can you grow bean sprouts? Why didn't you say it earlier?" Fortunately, she was still thinking about what to do to make money every day, so that she could spare her time at home in winter and not have any investment.

"What's there to say about this? Your milk will do it, it's her who taught me. Your milk can also produce mung bean sprouts, which grow white and tender, but it's so watery." Xue looked at her daughter and felt that this girl would definitely not be able to go up the mountain, so she was fussing at home.

"Mom, I'll ask you, is there anyone in the town selling these bean sprouts?" If someone already sells bean sprouts, they can't make them. After all, people at this time will not buy groceries often.

"I have never seen this before, maybe it's not there? Every household has vegetables, who would buy this thing? That is, I want to change it for you and get some." Xue shook his head and said that he was not very clear. At this time, people are still relatively strong in the small farmers. They are usually self-sufficient, and they only buy things that they really don't have at home. Similarly, most people will not think of selling anything. Most of the things are kept at their own homes or leave favors.

"Mom, let's go to the town tomorrow to see if it's okay. I want to know if anyone sells these bean sprouts. If no one sells them, we will sell them in the town without asking for a lot of money. We are still idle in winter. It's good to be able to exchange some meat and eat them." After all, I still want to eat them.

Xue did not object after hearing this. What her daughter said was right. She didn't point to making big money. If she could earn some pocket money, she could exchange for some delicious food. "Yes, let's go and have a look tomorrow. If it doesn't sell, let's try less. If it's really easy to sell, I'll buy you meat and eat it." Jinghan, the girl, is just tempted to eat. Xue took a clean cover from the wall and went out. She wanted to pick beans.

When Jinghan heard that she was going to grow bean sprouts, her heart began to grow hair, twisting on the left and right. When Jingya saw her like this, she looked stern, "You finish these needles and threads well, otherwise you won't want to go to town." When Jinghan heard this, she quickly sat down and continued to sew the patches in her hand.

The next morning, Jinghan followed her mother to the town and went to the market for a walk. She didn't see any bean sprouts. There were some people selling cabbage and potatoes. People in the town usually wanted to buy vegetables and some people also had a small garden, but the vegetables they planted were not enough to eat. After seeing this, Jinghan added a lot of confidence in selling bean sprouts.

After returning home, Jinghan arranged to ask her mother to soak beans. Xue picked out some soybeans yesterday, and picked some more today. Then he found a large basin and added some warm water to soak the beans. The water for raw soybean sprouts should not be too hot, otherwise the beans will rot.

Jinghan has some understanding of this bean sprout. In his previous life, many people would have sold bean sprouts in winter. At that time, her grandmother would also make some, and Jinghan often helped, so she was familiar with this. Looking at Chen's very skilled bean soaking beans, she knew that there should be no problem.

The bean sprouts will take seven days to grow, so although Jinghan really wants to know whether the bean sprouts can be sold, he has to wait patiently. Jingya still stares at Jinghan for needlework every day. Jinghan also understands that this is a must for a woman, so she is not repulsive. She calms down and learns needlework every day.

The winter in the northeast is relatively long and cold. Fortunately, the houses are burning kangs, and the kangs are hot and they don’t feel too cold. When it’s too cold, there is a fire wall to burn, so that the house will be much warmer. However, relatively speaking, firewood will be used. Zhixin goes up the mountain every day to pick up firewood and pick it up. This is a saying here. In fact, it is to go to the forest to find dead trees, and put them down and bring them home. Good trees are generally not allowed to be cut down. These are some conventional rules and no one needs to deliberately supervise them. Zhixin sometimes picks up some tree roots, which are relatively strong and are more resistant to burning stoves. The old man is also an idle person. He follows Zhixin to the mountain all day long, and the two of them take care of each other.

In addition to growing bean sprouts, Chen and Xue naturally have a lot of work to do. They raised two pigs at home, and now they are almost all the same. Chen has mixed the bean wools and ground acorns from bean pod skins and feed them together. The pigs are so delicious that they should quickly urge them to fatten them before the New Year.

In addition, Huixin's wedding date has been set, and various dowry should be prepared. Fortunately, Chen has saved up some more and more in recent years, and just buy some more for the rest. As a mother, she is afraid that her daughter will have a hard time getting married, so she wants to give her more things. Chen is no exception. She thought of everything from clothes, fabric, head and jewelry, to furniture, ornaments, etc.

Huixin naturally embroidered wedding dresses at home. When this woman got married, she had to do a lot of needlework. Chen asked her to keep some of the better needlework made by Huixin in recent years, as a dowry. The rest had to be made with close-fitting clothes, and even the New Year celebrations had to be made, which were all necessary. Therefore, Huixin was also very busy and could only hide in the west room to do needlework every day.

Time was very fast, and seven days passed in a blink of an eye. Jinghan watched the bean sprouts grow day by day. Until the seventh day, Xue pulled out a large pot of bean sprouts to wash them, then filled them with a large pot, and covered them with a small quilt. After breakfast, Xue pulled out the sled, put the large pot on the sled, and went to town.

Jinghan naturally had to follow him, so he quickly changed his clothes, put on his hat and gloves, and followed his mother to the town.

The mother and daughter left for about half an hour and arrived at the town, went straight to the market, found a place to stop. At this time in the morning, people just wanted to buy some vegetables and go home to make lunch, so the market was really crowded.

Jinghan grabbed a few bean sprouts and put them on the quilt, then shouted, "Come and take a look, the watery bean sprouts." She was small and her voice was crisp. Many people looked here, and they were very curious about what they sold.

A woman came over and said, "Little girl, what are you buying?"

"Auntie, you sell bean sprouts. Look at the bean sprouts, which are white and fat. It's great to buy some and stir-fry them at home. You can also stew them with radish, potatoes, pickles, and kelp. It's very delicious. Do you want to try them?" Jinghan naturally quickly told the woman how to eat the bean sprouts.

In fact, many people know this thing, but they may not be as good as Chen's. Besides, some people don't have the patience to make it for one or two pounds of bean sprouts by themselves. So when they saw the bean sprouts, many people gathered around and asked about the price. Jinghan and his mother agreed at home that the bean sprouts would cost three cents per pound, which was estimated based on the cost of beans. So they told others the price.

When you hear it, it is not expensive. You should know that this pound of soybeans can be sold for three or four cents, and a pound of soybeans can produce five kilograms of bean sprouts, but this is a pure calculation because a lot of broken beans have to be picked out. So it is just like a pound of bean sprouts that grow four kilograms of bean sprouts. This calculation is that a pound of bean sprouts costs three cents and also includes artificial things, which is quite reasonable.

Many people listened to it and wanted to go home to change the samples. Otherwise, the cabbage and radish that were all day long would be fucked. So you can weigh two pounds, and I weigh three pounds, and a large pot of bean sprouts was only more than twenty pounds, and it was sold out in a short while. There were still people next to me who didn't buy it, so they asked if there was any more. Xue said that there was still tomorrow, and the person left.

When Xue and his daughter saw that the bean sprouts were sold out, they were very happy. They quickly pulled the sled home and didn't get anything else. They first asked Chen to soak some beans. At this time, there were naturally no plastic cloth plastic buckets, but fortunately there were some broken jars at home. Chen used these broken jars to grow bean sprouts. So Chen found a big jar and cleaned them inside and outside to prepare for raw bean sprouts.
