A small breakfast shop in the street market, supporting the family and making money

"Thank you so much, Village Chief. I'm sorry to have caused you so much trouble!"

His urgent problem was solved, and Mr. Leng thanked the village chief of Shangou Village repeatedly.

Unexpectedly, the village chief smiled and waved his hand:

"Hey, my friends, I should be the one to say thank you. Our Sangou Village is surrounded by mountains on three sides, the roads are steep, the geographical location is not good, and the fields are even worse. Life is difficult for every household..."

The head of Shangou Village stopped Mr. Leng and shed bitter tears, speaking excitedly:

"We really didn't expect that someone would come to our mountain valley to collect dried mushrooms, so that people in our village can earn some money to supplement their family income and spend a peaceful winter..."

The village chief of Shangou Village had tears in his eyes when he was excited. It can be seen that he is a good village chief.

"So don't refuse, just let my son help!"

Hearing him say this, Grandpa Leng no longer refused. After expressing his gratitude, the villagers of Shangou Village helped them load the dried mushrooms onto the ox cart, and then tied the ropes tightly to prevent them from falling along the way.

After saying goodbye, Old Man Leng, Leng Yan and Leng He sat in their own ox cart and walked in front to lead the way.

By the time the ox cart finally arrived at Lengzhan Village, the sun was already setting. They did not dare to delay and hurriedly unloaded the things on the ox cart.

During this time, the son of the village chief of Shangou Village also enthusiastically helped them unload the goods. Leng Yan and his companions thanked him repeatedly and brought him warm water to quench his thirst.

Before everyone left, Leng Yan hurried into the kitchen and wrapped some red date cakes that she had made earlier, as well as the spicy potato chips that were always available at home, in oil paper.

"Uncle, it's getting late and the mountain road is difficult to walk on, so we won't keep you for dinner. These are all homemade food, you can eat them on the road!"

Food is expensive these days, especially this big bag! The village chief's son wanted to refuse, but he couldn't resist the Leng family's enthusiasm. In the end, he had to thank them repeatedly and drove the ox cart back to the village.

After sending the people away, Leng Yan and his grandfather cleaned up a room at home, moved several thousand kilograms of dried mushrooms into the house for storage, and took measures to prevent moisture.

The next day, when Goudan’s mother came back from the town market, she and her two sons finally got to eat the delicious pork.

As promised, Leng Yan and his team came to Shangou Village again today to collect dried mushrooms.

I worked hard all morning today and didn't harvest as much as yesterday, but it was still more than 2,000 kilograms.

The price is the same as yesterday. After purchasing the cold coriander, store it well, and then send it to food stores and hot pot restaurants in large quantities to make mushroom soup base, stew chicken soup, and stir-fry delicious and fragrant mushroom sauce.

Rubei has been busy for a few days and the temperature has dropped sharply. The howling north wind in the morning is like a knife cutting people's faces and causing pain.

The old people in the village said that this was a sign of white snow, and as the Spring Festival was approaching, Old Man Leng was worried about his uncle's family's journey home.

I’m afraid the snow will be heavy and the road will be difficult to walk on.

The next day, Leng Yan got up from the warm kang. As soon as she opened the door, snowflakes in the air swirled and floated in.

Outside the house, all I could see was a vast expanse of white, with layers of white snow covering the eaves and tiles.

Leng Yan looked at the scene in front of her and suddenly thought of last year when she had just traveled through time. At that time, the sky and the earth were also covered in silver and it was the cold winter season.

Before I knew it, I had already spent two winters in this era.

Today, my uncle, elder brother and younger brother are taking a break at the private school. When they got up and saw the vast expanse of white outside, they were very happy.

They quickly ran into the snow and started playing like crazy, having a lot of fun.

Leng Yan's parents used to get up early and work late every day in the food store and hot pot restaurant, but recently they have gradually withdrawn from them.

After all, the store has trained staff and they have gradually become proficient in the job, so they only need to check on it from time to time.

Therefore, because of the heavy snow today, her parents did not go to the shop in town.

When the family finally got together to have breakfast, they heard some noise outside the yard.

Leng Qi jumped out to see, and soon he ran and shouted excitedly: "Grandpa, Dad, Mom, Uncle and Aunt are back!"

Almost as soon as he finished speaking, two little kids rushed into the dining room.

"Grandpa, uncle, aunt, uncle and aunt, brothers and sisters, we are back!"

And who else could this cute little girl be other than Leng Jiaren and Leng Nianzhi.

"Hey, when did you get here? Be careful not to fall. Are you cold?"

Zhang Cuiniang took the lead and stepped forward, holding the person in her arms.

Leng Xun and Leng Huai walked out a few steps, first helped unload the things from the carriage, and then led the cows to the backyard to feed them hay.

"We arrived in town last night and stayed overnight. We got up early today just to catch breakfast at home!"

Leng Nianzhi's first sound was so adorable, with a childish yet serious look, that it made the whole family laugh.

"Dad, second brother, sister-in-law!"

At this time, Leng Kang and Chen Yueshu, who were lagging behind, also walked into the house. After they greeted old man Leng first, the others came forward and asked questions with concern.

"Okay, okay, it's good to be back, it's good to be back!"

The worry that Mr. Leng had been worried about a few days ago was finally put to rest.

"Yes, yes. Dad was worried a few days ago. If it snowed heavily, the road would be difficult to travel on."

Zhang Cuiniang also invited them to sit down while speaking.

A few kids got together and excitedly made an appointment to go out and play with snow poles soon.

Despite the long journey, the excitement of family reunion could not be overwhelmed, and they exchanged a few simple greetings.

Zhang Cuiniang, Leng Su and Leng Yan stood up and served a few bowls of the bone and radish soup that was simmering in the stove.

"Brother and sister-in-law, it's cold, you should drink some soup to warm your bodies."

The frosted radish is spicy but not hot, and has a hint of sweet juice. Cut it into dice and set aside.

Then stew the big bones on the stove until they are thick, pour in the radish cubes, and stew for a few quarters of an hour. Add a little salt to season. The taste is so delicious!

There is an old saying that goes eat radishes in winter and ginger in summer. This radish and bone soup is just right for drinking in winter, it is nourishing and delicious.

After drinking a bowl of carrot and bone soup, Leng Kang and his wife, and Jia Leng Jiaren and her brother and sister, they instinctively dispelled the coldness of the journey and felt extremely refreshed.

After dinner, the adults sat around the kang, eating sugar-roasted chestnuts and spicy potato chips while chatting about daily life.

A few children were in the yard, playing with snow sticks tirelessly.

This is what winter is like. There is not much work to do in the fields, and it is snowing outside, so every household starts to hibernate.

The whole family gathered together today, and the old man, who has always been frugal, said he wanted to kill a big rooster to celebrate.
