  Chapter 948 The selfish vanity female supporting role (44)

  Mother Xu's natal family is from Shanli Village, which is a more closed village than Qianjin Village.

  The mountain road has 18 bends, and it is inconvenient to get in and out. When I go back, I have to change several buses. The key point is that I can’t reach Zhaizikou. It takes two hours to get off the bus and walk to the village, and it’s too expensive to take a taxi.

  So I usually don’t go back to my mother’s house when I have nothing to do, and I only go back on the second day of junior high school all year round.

   It was hard to get there, and Xu's mother certainly hoped to stay for a few more days to accompany her parents.

   But my daughter hates walking on mountain roads. She thinks the rocky roads there are covered with moss and slippery. Every time I take her back to my grandmother's house, I have to coax her for a long time. Until my daughter went to college, the traffic at her mother's side finally got better, but my daughter was reluctant to go no matter how coaxed she was.

  You can leave your daughter at home alone, she is not at ease, so each time she goes to stay for at most one night and returns in a hurry the next day. The natal family has to find a reason to save the parents from being sad.

  This year, my daughter said that she bought a pickup truck and drove there by herself, until it was near her grandmother’s house, which saved her a lot of walking and brought a lot of New Year’s goods.

  Thinking of the changes in the family this year, Xu's mother beamed, wishing that tomorrow would be the second day of the Lunar New Year, and she would take the New Year's goods back to her natal family in the minivan driven by her daughter, and tell her family about her happy life.

Xu's mother was digging bamboo shoots and chattering: "Actually, there are many bamboo shoots on the mountain beside your grandmother's house. The big hairy bamboo shoots dug before the Qingming Festival are as tall as Haohao. But those bamboo shoots are a bit harsh to eat directly. , the best way to eat it is to steam it with your grandma’s pickled vegetables. It has no astringent taste and is very fresh. There are also pickled bamboo shoots made of bacon. Do."

   "Mom, are my grandparents okay?"

   "It's alright, don't look at 70 years old, you are not deaf or blind, you go up and down the mountain every day, and you are in good health. It's just that I haven't seen you for several years, and I miss you very much."

  Xu Yin took advantage of the situation and said: "Then go back this time and stay with them for a few more days."

   "That's a good relationship!"

  Xu's mother laughed happily: "Let's go! Change to another place! Mom will take you to dig spring bamboo shoots! The spring bamboo shoots in that place are so white and tender that no one else knows!"

  Before today, Xu Yin really didn't expect that her mother turned out to be an expert at chopping bamboo shoots. Every place she took, not only had bamboo shoots, but they were also plump and tender.

  The two mothers worked together to dig up two baskets full of winter bamboo shoots, plus three spring bamboo shoots in snakeskin bags.

   I didn’t expect to dig so much.

  It’s still too early to dry the dried bamboo shoots. You just have to dig when you come back in the first month and want to eat them. I haven’t finished eating the dried bamboo shoots last year at home.

  I just heard my daughter say: Winter bamboo shoots are very expensive in Anshi, and spring bamboo shoots are especially expensive. She wants to give some to Chen Jiao.

  Xu's mother knew that Chen Jiao was the owner of the barbecue restaurant who gave her daughter dividends, and she helped his family a lot during the house building.

  She is the only one who can get such a favorable price for home appliances and furniture. If you go to the mall to buy it, it will be tens of thousands more expensive. Not to mention, I also gave several hanging paintings as gifts.

   I heard from my daughter that those paintings cost one hundred thousand in total. Especially the landscape painting, which costs 50,000 yuan a piece, was so frightening that she didn't dare to hang it in the living room on the first floor, for fear of being patronized by thieves.

  Such a good partner, not to mention my daughter, Mother Xu also wants to give something.

  As soon as he heard that the bamboo shoots in Anshi were so expensive, he immediately said to dig more and pick the ones that looked good to give to Chen Jiao.

   Once I dug, I couldn't stop digging, but when the mother and daughter went up the mountain, they brought two bamboo baskets, and the snakeskin bag was borrowed from the woman in the same village.

  If Xu Yin hadn’t said that the car was parked at the foot of the mountain, and that the snakeskin bag could be returned by dumping the bamboo shoots on the car, they would not be willing to borrow it, but would use it themselves.

  The couple carried bamboo baskets and snakeskin bags down the mountain and put them on the truck.

   Fortunately, having a car is so convenient!

   "Before your father and I came here, we didn't dare to dig too much, otherwise we wouldn't be able to carry it back."

   "I will drive here from now on."

   "It's just burning gasoline." Xu's mother counted the gasoline money, twitching the corners of her mouth in distress, and the gasoline money can buy a lot of bamboo shoots.

  Xu Yin said with a smile: "How can the ones bought outside be so tender?"

   "That's true. Mom has no other skills. She is good at judging the age of bamboo shoots." Xu's mother proudly puffed out her chest, "The bamboo shoots I dug must be the whitest and tenderest."

  The mother and daughter chatted, dumped the bamboo shoots in the baskets and bags into the car, went up the mountain again, returned the snakeskin bag, and brought down two baskets of bamboo shoots by the way.

  I didn’t fill up the basket this time, because there weren’t so many bamboo shoots that fit Xu’s mother’s vision.

  For the sake of it, the mother and father dug up so many bamboo shoots, which surprised Father Xu: "If I knew I had to dig so many bamboo shoots, I would have gone with you."

  He thought that his daughter was in a hurry at home, so he followed her mother to climb the mountain, and brought back a few bamboo shoots, but he didn't expect to bring back a cart.

  Knowing that half of them will be given away, Father Xu heaved a sigh of relief: "Give it away, give it away, otherwise how can you finish eating so much?"

  Xu Yin couldn't help being happy. People in the city can't afford to eat bamboo shoots during the Chinese New Year, but her family thinks they can't finish them.

  The next day, she went to Anshi, and besides giving bamboo shoots to Chen Jiao, she also wanted to buy some gifts for her grandmother's relatives. Of course, only buy a small part, the bulk is taken from the system warehouse.

   Put in a bag of fresh spring bamboo shoots, and take out a few gifts for others.

  An City.

   Chen Jiao was overjoyed when she received the bamboo shoots:

"Oh! Xu Yin, your house still produces bamboo shoots? Such fresh winter bamboo shoots, spring bamboo shoots! They were just dug yesterday? I said it! The mud is still wet. No way! You gave too much! Those new year's goods I prepared Not enough to watch! Let's go! I'll take you to the cold storage, and you pick some beef and mutton to go back!"

  She gave Xu Yin many gift packages of beef and mutton.

   They are all freshly killed and frozen on the grassland.

  But Xu Yin’s double-door refrigerator can’t hold so much.

   On the way back, she stocked up half of it and sent it to the system warehouse.

  Leaving half of it still fills up the freezer compartment of the refrigerator.

  But I’m going to my grandma’s house on the second day of the new year, so I’ll take some more to make room for the refrigerator.

   Seeing the beef and mutton brought home by his daughter, Father Xu remembered something he forgot to mention yesterday.

  After he finished speaking, Xu Yin thought for a moment and said, "Dad, I'm a junior. Is it not good to roast some mutton for the villagers and charge processing fees?"

"It doesn't matter if you don't charge it. What if everyone brings meat over for you to roast?" Mother Xu continued, "Besides, charcoal also costs money, and there are seasonings. I think the seasonings bought by Yinyin are more expensive than meat. The barbecue powder sold in the supermarket in the town is more fragrant, and the saltiness is just right."

  Xu Yinxin said that's not the case, my sister paid off her debts with this seasoning.

"How about this, Dad, I'll teach you how to roast, how to marinate, and sprinkle the ingredients. It's actually quite simple. Once you master the heat, just turn it over regularly. When the villagers want our family to process it, you bake it for them. How much you charge is up to you. I will not interfere in this matter."
