On the second day, Li Qingshan got up early to grind the set of guys he bought before apprenticeship.
After dinner, Li Qingshan went out, Liu Yu brought him some rice cracker candy, "At that time, give it to the little doll of the master's family." Li Qingshan smiled,
Liu Yu helped him straighten his clothes, "Then I'm leaving?"
Liu Yu hummed and sent Li Qingshan out.
The half acre of ramie should be harvested, there is not much planted, usually Li Qingshan goes out to work and Cong Chunhua harvests at home, not to mention there are still three people in the family this year.
Going down to the ground with a sickle, even chopping and backing, it took more than an hour to finish.
Ramie is a crop harvested three times a year, and once planted, it can be harvested for many years. Therefore, after the last harvest every year, it is necessary to topdress the ramie and cover it with grain grass so that the ramie can survive the winter and grow up again in the next year. However, this job has to wait until Li Qingshan comes back in the afternoon, the fertilizer is heavy, they can't move it.
Right now, they remove the hemp seeds and leaves from the harvested hemp stalks, bundle them into bundles and put them in the small pond on the left side of the house to soak first. This is called retting, because the skin on the outside of the ramie stalk can be easily peeled off.
Ramie is full of treasures, hemp seeds can be used as seeds to extract oil, ramie leaves can be used as medicine to stop bleeding, disperse blood stasis, reduce swelling, and can also be fed to pigs. Just burn it directly as firewood.
Retting takes at least half a month, so don't worry about it now. The hemp seeds produced on half an acre of land are limited, and the work is not in a hurry. Cong Chunhua didn't call it dried willow fish. She and Mrs. Guan cleaned the hemp seeds in a short time.
Cong Chunhua washed a handful of the willow fish that was embroidered on the handkerchief, and knocked one of the willow fish, the mouth was full of oily fragrance, and the hemp seeds were also crunchy.
When the ramie leaves are lucky, someone will harvest them, but if there are too many ramie leaves, they will not be sold at a good price. Farmers usually take a little, dry it and save it for later use as medicine at home, and feed the rest to pigs.
"This can be made into thick leaf pan." Mrs. Guan proposed.
Cong Chunhua was curious, so she gave Mrs. Guan a hand and asked her to do it.
In fact, everything in the house is quite complete. Mrs. Guan washed the ramie leaves, boiled them in a pot, smashed them in a stone mortar, added glutinous rice flour and sugar, kneaded them into noodles, pulled them into dough, and rolled them in. Wrap sesame and peanut fillings, then steam in a pan.
It is steamed green and verdant, and you will have an appetite just looking at it.
Cong Chunhua yelled in the kitchen, and Liu Yu put down the needle and thread in her hand and went over.
Thick-leaf rice cake exudes the fragrance of ramie leaves, take a bite while it is hot, it is soft and glutinous, and further inside is the fragrance of sesame and peanuts, a variety of tastes are intertwined.
Cong Chunhua said: "Can this also be sold in Daji?"
In fact, the method is a bit similar to Qingtuan. The sweet stuffing is a bit expensive because of the high price of sugar. Really some money.
Liu Yu said: "Why don't we sell rice cracker candy first in this big episode to see what's going on, and then try to sell this in the next episode."
Anyway, it doesn't matter if the ramie leaves for making thick leaf pan are dry.
"Okay! Make up your mind." Cong Chunhua agreed, and said that more ramie leaves should be kept this year.
Li Qingshan on the other side.
Zhu Xingyou is a big pig farmer in Zhuzhuang, and there are litters of newborn piglets in the pig farm. Pigs can give birth to more than a dozen piglets in one litter, and he can't feed these pigs by himself, so some of them are sold directly to people who want to raise pigs, and some of them are fed and kept by themselves to grow into big pigs and then sold.
Just by looking at this pig farm, you can tell how rich his family is. At the beginning, Li Qingshan was a little nervous when he started, but later on he became more and more proficient, Zhu Xingyou boasted, " Then
Lai Da Tuzi will feel ashamed of seeing your technique, haha."
Ten of them, and the rest have to wait for the piglets to grow up for another two days before coming back.
Zhu Xingyou invited him to dinner, his daughter Tao kept pestering Li Qingshan because of the few pieces of rice flower candy, asking: "Is my brother's husband pretty?"
Zhu Xingyou corrected it several times and had to call him uncle, but No, her father has a big belly and a beard, and her brother is clean and young.
Li Qingshan nodded and squatted down, and said softly: "He will cook a lot of delicious food. If he sees you, he will definitely like you."
Sister Tao is very happy, because she lost her mother since she was a child, and she likes Wen Wenrou the most Soft people.
Old man Zhu came with two catties of mutton, "I said I would serve wine at my house, but you're fine, I just abducted the young man from Qingshan to your house.
" !" Zhu Xing has a family and a nanny, who usually takes care of Sister Tao and takes care of the family affairs.
The old man Zhu gave Li Qingshan a thumbs up, "You really are like this! I saw the wound on my cow's wound go down, and he also ate. It will be healed in two days, thanks to you."
He turned to be very angry, "I came to the door and scolded that big butcher Lai, fuck, I will never ask him to kill a pig again!"
Ever since Lai Dabutu had accumulated money, he liked to collect pigs and slaughter them to sell meat. Occasionally, when folks only wanted to kill pigs and sell them in the village, they would invite him to come, but he would always push back. He couldn't get used to it, after this, he wouldn't even sell him a pig!
The old man Zhu patted Li Qingshan on the shoulder and said: "You work hard, and then I will sell you a woolen pig!"
Li Qingshan was young, he was poured by these wine baskets one by one, and he was no match at all. In the end, Zhu Xingyou found someone to drive The mule cart brought Li Qingshan back.
"Oh, why did you drink so much?" Cong Chunhua asked.
The driver was still young, and he hesitated when he heard the words, his uncle and his grandfather poured wine into the house, what did he say!
The driver helped to send Li Qingshan into the house, and quickly slipped away.
Liu Yu was tired of men drinking, so after helping him take off his shoes, he went out to make hangover soup.
Cong Chunhua said: "I'll go! Look at him, don't fall off the bed."
Liu Yu nodded, and wiped Li Qingshan's face with a wet handkerchief.
The former one seemed to have scratched his skin when he shaved, and Liu Yu wanted to laugh again.
Li Qingshan grabbed Liu Yu's hand, and locked his eyes firmly on Liu Yu.
He was drunk, Liu Yu no longer avoided his gaze, "Let go."
Not only did Li Qingshan not let go, but he got up and leaned on Liu Yu's back, chattering crookedly.
Cong Chunhua would come in with hangover soup at any time, Liu Yu panicked, the more he pushed Li Qingshan, the tighter he hugged him.
Finally, Cong Chunhua came in!
Willow gave up struggling.
Cong Chunhua paused, put down the hangover soup and hurried away, closing the door along the way.
Liu Yu looked back at the culprit.
His eyes were straight, with an innocent look.
Liu Yu poured him hangover soup.
The sour smell was too strong, Li Qingshan's face wrinkled into a ball, and he grinned.
The corners of Liu Yu's lips raised unconsciously, but Li Qingshan pulled her into his arms, moaning.
Liu Yu asked: "What's wrong?"
Li Qingshan seemed aggrieved, "You don't like me."
Liu Yu's heart sank and he didn't speak.
Li Qingshan touched something from under the pillow, "Here you are."
Liu Yu took it and saw it was a wooden hairpin, but...
"What is this?" Liu Yu pointed to the pattern on the head of the hairpin and asked.
Li Qingshan said complacently: "Fox."
He didn't say that he really couldn't see that it was a fox, but Liu Yu looked like a fox after saying it like this, but it was quite ugly...
Liu Yu asked funnyly: "Why is it a fox?" Fox?"
Li Qingshan hugged him tightly, "You are just a little fox!"
What...
Liuyu wanted to ask, but found that Li Qingshan had fallen asleep leaning against him.
...
At dusk, Li Qingshan woke up, sitting on the bed still a little dazed.
Liu Yu opened the door and came in, seeing him awake, asked him: "Are you hungry?"
Li Qingshan nodded as his stomach was really hot.
Liu Yu went to the kitchen to fill a bowl of noodle soup with fungus and eggs. It was fresh and fragrant, and the noodles were still chewy.
Li Qingshan just got out of bed, he was a bit surprised, "It's cooked so soon?"
Liu Yu said: "I've been preparing it all the time."
Husband is caring, Li Qingshan felt warm in his heart, he came over to eat after washing his hands.
After eating a bowl, his stomach felt much relieved, Li Qingshan wanted to go to the ground.
Liu Yu's brows moved slightly, and she asked him, "Don't you want to rest for a while?"
The job of fertilizing the gaigu grass should be finished before winter next month, and there is no rush.
"No, it's a waste of time to drink. Originally, I planned to cover the fertilizer and go to the mud in the afternoon, but this has been delayed." Fifteen
acres of land required a lot of fertilizer, and this work was done on weekdays. Now It's not finished yet.
When helping Li Qingshan to sleep in the afternoon, Liu Yu helped him untie the wrist straps on the bunted cuffs, Li Qingshan was using the wrist straps at the same time, Liu Yu walked over very quickly and dexterously helped him tie them.
Li Qingshan slightly bent his knees, smiled lightly, and scraped Liu Yu's nose.
I seem to like this movement very much recently, Liu Yu thought while clutching his nose lightly.
After the ramie is harvested, the piglets are the happiest.
Wheat bran is mixed with fresh ramie leaves, and it eats it straight up.
When Li Qingshan went to the field, the family members were not idle. Before it was dark, they gathered more firewood and cut more grass, and poured it directly into the manure pit on the ground to make green manure.
Farmers wish they could have twenty-four hours a day.
Half an acre of land was half dry before it was completely dark. For the rest, I will do it for a while when I get back from work tomorrow.
When Li Qingshan returned home after taking a shower, he found that the sheets and pillowcases on the bed had been changed. Fu Lang must have disliked his smell of alcohol. !
Li Qingshan threw the cloth towel to wipe his hair on the table, and quickly jumped to the bed to search.
When Liu Yu entered the room, he saw his anxious expression, as if he was looking for something...
Liu Yu sat down calmly, embroidering a handkerchief in front of the oil lamp.
Li Qingshan searched and searched, finally bit the bullet and asked Liu Yu, "You...have you seen the thing under my pillow?"
Liu Yu hummed, got up and took out the hairpin from the small box in front of the dressing table show him.
Li Qingshan took the hairpin, his eyes lit up, "This is it!"
Liu Yu didn't speak, she rubbed her hands on the dressing table and stared at Li Qingshan.
Such an ugly hairpin, Li Qingshan suddenly felt embarrassed, "I...I..."
Liu Yu let him go with great kindness, "Afternoon."
After a slight pause, Liu Yu said: "You give it away when you are drunk. Me."
Li Qingshan was struck by lightning, he...he didn't remember anything!
"You want to go back on your word?" Liu Yu asked.
"No!" Li Qingshan explained, "But..."
The hairpin is not finished yet, and...and it's too ugly!
Liu Yu snatched the hairpin back from his hand, and said stubbornly: "I want this."
Li Qingshan was stunned for a while, and it took him a long time to react, he rushed forward and hugged Liu Yu to Lao Gao, "Okay You, play me!"
Knowing that the hairpin was given to you by me, you still watched me search for it for a long time!
Liu Yu couldn't help laughing.
Li Qingshan snorted, squeezed the place that felt good, gritted his teeth and said: "Tonight I will tell you to taste the power of my husband!"
Liu Yu hugged his neck, remembering what happened just now, he couldn't stop laughing.
