selling chili peppers in chronology

===========================

After the autumn harvest, the weather turns cooler.

Qiu Huo, who was hot and sweaty with his shirt off, finally passed away, and now he still feels cool in a single shirt at noon, which can be regarded as having passed the hottest period.

The batch of peppers planted during the Zhengqiu planting period is now ready to be picked. Those who grow autumn peppers in Pingba Village will take the time to pick them, and then take advantage of the absence of rain, take them out to dry on the ground or hang them on the eaves with hemp strings , After it dries, put it in a bag and put it in a bag. This is what is used for cooking when there is no fresh pepper to eat.

Everyone in the Chen family is also busy picking peppers.

In order to ensure the smooth growth of peppers, each family moved back all the plants that could be moved back, such as radishes and cabbage, and planted peppers first.

Now the red peppers hang on the branches, red and green.

Because these belong to the entire Chen family, and there is no need for separate households to pick them, the old man waved his hand and told them all to obey Chen Chen's arrangements.

Chen Chen is now the legal representative of the Chen family. He is not polite, and directly divides all the Chen family members into three groups. One group is responsible for picking peppers, another group is responsible for digging garlic, and the last group is responsible for making bad peppers. .

There are relatively few things to do on the picking side, you only need to pick off the red peppers on the branches and carry them home.

Garlic is the same as picking.

The most troublesome thing is to make bad peppers, because the pepper stalks need to be removed first, and then the peppers are washed in a small sink, and someone has to peel the garlic. The most time-consuming and laborious thing is to chop the peppers, and finally stir them into the jar.

Because it was very troublesome in itself, Chen Chen arranged a lot of people here.In order to avoid unnecessary crowding, Chen Chen also divided everyone into assembly line operations.

Picking the pepper stalks, carrying the peppers to the small pool, and then carrying the washed peppers back is used by two people, some people who chop the peppers and stir, those who peel the garlic peel the garlic, and those who put the jars, there are so many other places If they couldn't squeeze in, they all rushed to the side where the old couple lived.

There are many kinds of peppers, and there are many mature ones. Only here can we squeeze out space to store these things.

The huge yard is noisy.

Chen Chen came over with a pot of rice wine cooked from home, and poured it into the pot to boil.

He also cooked this rice wine in advance, and the rice used was this year's new rice, which was produced by the three families together.

The peppers used this time are the same as the peppers he grew in the yard before. The seeds were soaked in Lingquan in advance, so Chen Chen did not add Lingquan when cooking the rice wine, but boiled it in ordinary water.

If you don’t taste the rice wine alone, you won’t be able to taste the difference. After the rice wine is boiled, mix it into the chopped chili, and after fermentation, because the chili itself has a spiritual spring to enhance the flavor, it won’t taste the same. There is a big difference between the bad peppers made before, which can ensure the stable quality of the products.

The amount of Lingquan is limited every day, so he can only think of ways to save it.

If the pepper seeds have not been soaked, use Lingquan to cook rice wine; if the pepper seeds have been soaked in Lingquan, then use ordinary water to cook rice wine.

Guaranteed not bad taste.

After the rice wine in the pot was boiled, Chen Chen took the unfinished firewood from the stove to another stove and waited for it to go out naturally. By the time it passed by, the pepper chopper was already wearing gloves to stir the peppers in the big pot. Evened, they went back to chop the peppers, and Chen Chen went to help install the altar.

The second hall's sister-in-law Ren Fengxia was also helping to install the altar, she couldn't help but said: "Such a big pot, I'm afraid it will have to be filled with two or three jars."

Chen Chen said: "Put a jar of twenty catties first, and it is estimated that it will be more than one jar, and two jars will not be enough."

Ren Fengxia looked at it carefully and said: "Then I guess we can't fill these two jars enough, so it should be fine if we don't seal it for now?"

"Okay." Chen Chen said: "Originally, I would have to vent my anger for three or four days before sealing the altar."

Ren Fengxia nodded to show that she understood.

While Chen Chen and Ren Fengxia were filling the altar with spoons, other people were also constantly busy.

Now that the weather is getting colder, the kitchen is sweating profusely even if there is a fire. Wang Guizhi and Feng Zhaodi each wore a pair of plastic gloves, and then they chopped chili peppers on the chopping board with a knife in their hands. The working voices of Du Juan and Yang Chunmei, the two daughters-in-law, are harmonious.

In the yard, Mrs. Li brought Chen Huaixing, Chen Huaifang, and Chen Huaizhi, three little ones, who were peeling garlic. Chen Huaizhi was only three years old, so he couldn’t really do much, but children love to join in the fun. Seeing their brothers and sisters doing this, they naturally wanted to Playing, not allowed to do, but also pouting to cry.

Although Chen Huaifang is young, she does a good job. Seeing Chen Huaizhi's unpeeled garlic had to be picked out and remade. Chen Huaizhi thought it was fun. Every peeled garlic had to be handed over to Chen Huaifang. Chen Huaifang didn't want to deal with it He still wanted to push and stuff it into her hand, which made Chen Huaifang very impatient.

"Grandma, let Huaizhi play by himself, he is here to influence my work." Chen Huaifang couldn't help but tell Li Shi.

Mrs. Li glanced at Chen Huaizhi, who was about to cry with his mouth puckered, but didn't drive him away, "He's your younger brother, younger than you, he's definitely not as good at work as you, you have to teach him."

Chen Huaifang was not happy, "But I said he still won't."

Li said: "Then you can teach him again, or you can coax him to play somewhere else."

Chen Huaifang pouted, "How to coax?"

Chen Fen, who was picking pepper stalks not far away, gave her an idea, "Give him a candy, Huaifang, and he will definitely listen to you."

Hearing this, Chen Huaifang's face became tangled into a bun.

Chen Qian, who was also picking pepper stalks, said as if watching a play: "Huaifang, you have to think about whether to give a candy pain or Huai Zhi keeps disturbing you to work pain."

Chen Huaifang was in pain everywhere, "I don't think it's good."

Chen Qian shook his head and said, "There is no such thing as the best of both worlds in this world."

Chen Huaifang was moved by the persuasion, and after struggling for a while, she compromised and said, "Then I'll give him a candy."

As she spoke, she put the peeled garlic into the basin, and then called out to Chen Huaizhi, who was ignorant and didn't understand anything, "Huaizhi, let's go, my sister will take you to eat candy."

Chen Huaizhi understood now, his eyes lit up, and he ran away with Chen Huaifang.

Chen Fen was speechless watching from the sidelines, "One candy can trick him away from now on."

Chen Qian stood up, "You are not the same."

Chen Fen glared at him, "I didn't!"

Chen Qian sarcastically said, "I don't know who agreed to do the dishes for me last time because of a meat bun."

Chen Fen was so angry that she wanted to hit him, "I will never wash it for you again!"

Chen Qian quickly admitted his mistake, "Don't, don't, I was wrong, my sister forgive me."

Chen Fen snorted heavily.

Chen Qian grabbed the pannier full of chili peppers, "Fen'er, don't be angry, I was wrong, please help me put the pannier on my back, I have to carry it for my third aunt to wash."

"You'd better not come back." Chen Fen said very displeased, but her body sincerely put her hands together.

With a basket full of peppers on his back, Chen Qian said with a playful smile, "Where can I go, my favorite sister is still here."

Chen Fen rolled her eyes.

Here Chen Qiangang walked out of the courtyard with chili on his back, while Chen Huaifang, who bought people's hearts with sugar, had already come out, and Chen Huaizhi didn't follow behind.

Mrs. Li raised her eyelids and asked, "Huaifang, where did you coax Huaizhi?"

Chen Huaifang said: "I told him to sleep in the house."

Mrs. Li asked, "Did you give him the sugar?"

As soon as Chen Huaifang said this, his heart ached, "Give it."

Chen Huaixing asked anxiously, "Why didn't you give it to me?"

Chen Huaifang said bluntly: "Because you are an older brother, you have to give me candy."

Chen Huaixing was choked and frowned instantly.

Li Shi and Chen Fen couldn't help laughing.

Chen Chen came out from the room, "Why are you so happy?"

Chen Huaixing complained, "Uncle Xiaochen, Huaifang asked me to give her candy."

Chen Chen asked: "Why do you want to give her candy?"

Chen Huaixing said, "She said I am older than her."

Chen Huaifang said: "You are older than me, you are an older brother."

Chen Huaixing said: "I didn't say that brother would give candy to sister."

Chen Huaifang frowned, "Didn't you say that?"

Chen Huaixing nodded, "No."

Chen Huaifang started her little head. She thought carefully and thought again, and she really thought that no one said that the elder brother would give sweets to the younger sister.

Chen Huaifang immediately became depressed, "Then why should I give Huaizhi sugar..."

That candy was given to her by her father yesterday, and she has never been willing to eat it.Although she still has two, they are still very few.

Chen Chen didn't know what was going on with them.

Chen Fen briefly explained it to the side.

Chen Chen sounded a little psychedelic, but he didn't ask more about these children, he just glanced into the room, "Is Huai Zhi all right in the room alone?"

Mrs. Li said: "It's okay, he's here often, and I know him well."

Hearing what Li Shi said, Chen Chen didn't say any more.

The peppers that had just been mixed had all been put into the jar. Ren Fengxia was helping Du Juan and Yang Chunmei chop the peppers, so he came out to help peel the garlic.

After sitting and peeling for a while, Wang Guizhi called out from the kitchen, "Xiaochen, bring some garlic in!"

"it is good!"

Responding, Chen Chen took half a pot of garlic washed and went into the kitchen.

Wang Guizhi drove the chopped peppers on the chopping board into the big basin with a knife, and when he saw Chen Chen coming in, he said, "They chopped a lot of peppers, so I'll chop the garlic first, otherwise you may have to wait for the peppers to run out of garlic. .”

Chen Chen put half a pot of garlic on the edge of the stove, saw that the pepper basket next to him was already half down, so he was in no hurry to go out, waited for Wang Guizhi to pat half of the garlic, then reached out and picked up the basket to pour the remaining peppers Put it into the basin, half of it is half, and you are not afraid of not seeing it.

Feng Zhaodi asked, "Xiaochen, how much can you produce today?"

"I don't know." Chen Chen said: "The altar is now more than 80 catties, and there are probably a lot more."

Feng Zhaodi said: "Is the jar enough?"

Chen Chen said: "Enough."

For this matter, he bought a lot of jars.

Because there are a lot of peppers planted, I pick them after seeing some peppers start to turn red. Otherwise, the redness will be too fast after waiting, and I can’t finish picking them every day, and it’s very tiring to do it.

Feng Zhaodi said: "That's good."

There are a lot of people and there is a lot of strength. Although the people in the courtyard and the room are busy, they are not messy at all.After all, it is arranged for everyone, even if they come in and out, they can't be messed up.

At noon, everyone ate here together, and in the afternoon they were busy again. Seeing the sun tending to slant to the west, Chen Chen thought that everyone had been tired all day, so he had to eat better in the evening.

So I told everyone, and then took the bamboo basket and prepared to go to the river to catch some seafood to eat, which can be regarded as a reward for everyone.
