The Transmigrated Farm Girl's Journey to Wealth
Chapter 249 Mid-Autumn Festival
"Why would you say it was bought? This is a gift from the workshop, a Mid-Autumn Festival gift!"
What? You get a holiday gift for starting work? Is there really such a good thing in the world?
The villagers were stunned and incredibly envious. Those whose families had members working in the workshop were all beaming with joy. With the meat marinated, the mooncakes wouldn't spoil for days; they wouldn't need to buy anything for the Mid-Autumn Festival. The Song family had handled this matter with remarkable generosity!
Those who weren't working in the workshop were all wondering when they would hire more people again.
The former clan chief's house fell into silence again because of the festival gifts; what they originally had was now all gone.
For the Mid-Autumn Festival, Fang Xiaoning personally cooked. It was rare for both families to be present, so she prepared a feast, including Song Xiaogu's family. On the day of the full moon celebration, the shopkeeper had given them some dried seafood; today, she was going to cook something they had never tried before.
Dongpo pork, deep-fried shrimp cake, crispy chicken, sweet and sour pork ribs, spicy and sour sea cucumber, garlic abalone, braised duck, braised pork knuckle, spicy squid, spicy fish with scallions, stir-fried cabbage, clear chicken soup, eggplant cake, fish head tofu soup, boiled sliced pork, pan-fried tofu casserole.
She and her two cooks worked for several hours straight.
Wiping away his sweat, he said, "I'm going to change my clothes. You guys take the dishes out."
"Yes."
We never imagined that Madam's cooking skills were so good. The whole meal was truly an eye-opener. They had never seen Madam's cooking methods before.
I learned a lot today.
Fang Xiaoning went back inside to take a shower and change her clothes before coming to the big tree. It was hot, so they were used to eating in the yard.
"Xiao Ning, come quickly. You've worked so hard today, with such a big table of food."
Fang Youcai's mouth watered. He really shouldn't have let his daughter get married so early. In a few days, when the new house is ready, he won't be able to eat so well anymore.
Look, look, what are all these?
It looks delicious and smells amazing!
He rubbed his hands together, trying to calm himself down. There were so many things he had never seen before, and he was ready to try them when his daughter came!
Fang Xiaoning sat down, and everyone eagerly began to eat.
"Sister-in-law, your cooking is still the best!"
Fang Tiezhu nodded in agreement, "My sister's cooking is even better than the chefs in the county town!"
"Daughter, when you have some free time these days, teach your mother what this is. It's really chewy."
"Squid, from the sea."
"This is delicious too, sour, spicy, and chewy. What's that dark thing?"
Sea cucumber.
The meal consisted of seafood, chicken, duck, and fish, all believed to be good for health. I wonder if this meal was too nourishing.
"This is the best Mid-Autumn Festival I've ever had," Song Xiaogu couldn't help but exclaim.
Who is not?
Who could have imagined things would turn out this way last year?
Fang Youcai had a companion for drinking today, his son-in-law. The two of them drank back and forth, and inevitably both drank too much.
After the meal, Fang Youcai's face was a dark red, almost blackish-red, while Song Feng's face didn't turn red from drinking, but judging from his eyes, he was not sober.
After drinking, Fang Youcai became even more unruly. Fearing that he might do something outrageous while drunk, Zhao pulled him away and locked him in the room.
Song Feng, however, was alright when drunk. He said he wanted to sleep with a dazed look in his eyes, went back to his room, lay down on the bed, and fell asleep.
The mother and daughter, having dealt with the two drunkards, returned to their courtyard. Today, while delivering goods, the shopkeeper had given them a basket of pomegranates. Each pomegranate was oval-shaped, larger than a hand. Such large pomegranates were a rare find.
"Let's go, let's eat fruit, mooncakes, and admire the moon."
Fang Xiaoning led everyone to sit in the courtyard. The men had all been beaten down; now it was their world.
The pomegranate is opened.
Wow, they're so red, and the seeds are huge!
"It looks so sweet."
"Each person gets half, and they can break it apart to eat themselves."
"Mom, try it, is it sweet?"
Some families in the village grow pomegranate trees, but the fruits are very small, and the children pick them before they ripen. The seeds inside are also small, mostly white, with very few pink ones.
This is the first time I've ever seen or eaten such a juicy pomegranate.
"Rich people even make their fruit look better than the fruit in our village."
“Absolutely,” Song Xiaogu agreed wholeheartedly, “this fruit is definitely not cheap.”
"Mom, let's plant some fruit trees in the yard too. Pomegranates symbolize many children and many blessings, so let's plant two."
"Alright, all of them!"
Zhao blinked. "Many children, many blessings, right? I'll ask my husband to buy a few too, so we can plant some at home and at my parents' house."
