Chapter 50 Taoyuan cuts honey and catches fish and crabs
Yang Yong really had no strength, and after he couldn't step on it anymore, he couldn't care about Xue Fang's contempt, so he replaced it with the old man, and Yang Yong was responsible for loading the rice.
With the addition of the old man, the drum turned fast and steady, and the threshing task of the rice was much faster, and after the basket was full, it was then packed in bags. Before noon, all the rice in this acre and half of the land was threshed.
When they returned, Yang Yong's mother and Mrs. Lin packed up the sickle, the kettle, and the half of the watermelon that they had not eaten during the break. The rest of the people carried a bag of more than 50 catties of rice on their shoulders, among which Liu Wen and the old man each carried an extra bag.
The sweaty crowd under the scorching sun finally walked into the courtyard of Liu Wen's house, threw the rice on their shoulders to the ground covered with plastic sheeting, and Professor Lin and Yang Yong, father and son, who had never done any physical labor, sat on a chair under the big longan tree, paralyzed there and didn't want to move.
Qing'er and Xue Fang were also tired enough, their faces were flushed, and they sat there sweating profusely. Liu Wen has good physical fitness, his parents and the old man are used to it, although they are also tired, they are by no means as out of line as Yang Yong.
Liu Wen's father and the old man couldn't rest yet, so they were busy pouring out the rice in the bag, taking advantage of the strong sunlight, just enough to quickly dry the rice and dry it thoroughly.
Liu Wen hurriedly went back to the house and poured out the mung bean soup that his mother had boiled last night and had been frozen in the refrigerator to entertain everyone. After a big bowl of cold and sweet mung bean soup was eaten, everyone's state recovered somewhat, and after everyone went to the faucet in front of the hospital to wash their hands and faces, and was moistened by the cool nectar spring well water, Yang Yong and they finally felt that their physical state had recovered mostly.
The lunch meal was relatively simple, a loofah egg soup, a fried eggplant with bacon, a stir-fried water spinach, and a sour and hot fish fillet. Although there are not many dishes, but the portions are very large, because they still have to work in the afternoon, the men only drink a small bowl of bayberry wine at noon, and the women and children drink mung bean soup as a drink.
At three o'clock in the afternoon, everyone went to thresh all the rice in the other eight points of land, this time the amount of labor was not much, the rice had been cut and stacked, only the threshing of the rice machine was needed, so it was all done before six o'clock.
Liu Wen and Yang Yong were tired of stepping on the pedal, so they replaced it with the old man and Professor Lin, and then even Yang's father couldn't help but go up and try it, Liu Wen's mother, Yang's mother and Mrs. Lin saw that there was nothing wrong, so they simply went back to prepare dinner in advance.
The dinner was very rich, Liu Wen deliberately went to Taoyuan to catch an old hen and came back to kill it, which was used to stew wild mushroom soup. There are also stir-fried loaches with capers, braised eel, and sour and hot crucian carp. The carp is boiled and knotted, a large grass carp of more than ten catties is cut into pieces and braised in pieces, and the sweet potato leaves are stir-fried, plus a stir-fried water spinach.
Eight dishes filled the table, and Liu Wen brought out three kinds of wine to entertain the big guys who had worked hard all day, peach wine, bayberry wine, and freshly brewed mountain wine.
The woman drank the sweet and sour mountain wine, which was very delicious, and the degree was very low, and the three little guys wanted to drink the mountain wine at first, but they stopped after being reprimanded by the adults. Liu Wen's mother served the old hen wild mushroom soup to the three little guys, and as soon as the aroma was tangy, they were immediately conquered by the food in the bowl, and the little grievance in their hearts just now had long since disappeared.
At first, the men drank some sweet, sour but high-alcohol bayberry wine to refresh themselves, and when the wine was half-full, they switched to the sweet and energetic peach wine. The food and wine completely ignited everyone's enthusiasm, and everyone had a particularly enjoyable meal tonight.
Tonight's dishes are particularly cooked, the family's pets, Laifu and Zhaocai are eating delicious meals, and the two little monkeys are eating with their mouths full of oil. The arrogant Dahua family still enjoyed the delicious food quietly in the back of the hospital, and ate the elegant fragrance in small bites, but they were not slow to eat.
Xiao Zhu, who had never eaten so much delicious food, was so happy, that eating was so cheerful, she couldn't stop. Two little squirrels led the little squirrels in the nest to follow suit, and each squirrel had a piece of grass carp meat in its mouth, and happily ran to the tree to enjoy it slowly.
Smelling the aroma of wine, Xiao Zhu and Xiangxiang also wanted to drink, and Liu Wenchuan told them that there were more and better wines in the space, so they dispelled the idea of asking for wine on the spot.
Liu Wen lay on the bed and read a book after taking a bath, and saw Qing'er coming over after bathing. Looking at the beauty under the lamp, the more she looked, the more charming she became, Qing'er drank some mountain wine again, and her face seemed to be dyed with a layer of rouge, which made her more delicate. Where can Liu Wen still be able to hold on, regardless of the fatigue of the day, Qing'er came to have some intimate exercise.
Except for those special days, Liu Wen and Qing'er basically have to do this kind of exercise every day, sometimes more than once!
Normally, Liu Wen could only hold out for about ten minutes before he would disarm and surrender, but today, half an hour later, Liu Wen was still fierce and fierce, and his movements became more and more rapid. Finally, Liu Wen exerted all the strength of his body, concentrated a little bit and burst out with all his strength, and suddenly poured out.
At the same time, Qing'er also felt Liu Wen's deep love for herself, warm, wave after wave, many, many... Qing'er was obsessed and drunk, and she was addicted to it for a long time...
After the incident, the couple said some intimate words, and then they hugged each other and slept sweetly.
In the middle of the night, Liu Wen was woken up by Xiangxiang and Xiao Zhu, it turned out that they had come to beg for wine, Liu Wen waved them into the space, and the fruit wine in it was enough for them to drink until they vomited. Liu Wen then went to sleep with peace of mind.
The next morning, when it was still dawn, Liu Wen quietly called Xiangxiang and Xiao Zhu, who were tired of alcohol, out of the space, and accompanied his father to drive the cattle to the big paddy field and ploughed the field.
The fields are overgrown with weeds, and if you don't turn over the mud, it will greatly affect the development of the newly planted rice.
Liu Wen's father then changed to a big rake and raked the field roughly. Late rice transplanting uses large seedlings, and the rice seedlings at this time are about to grow about 20 centimeters high, and the field does not need to be too flat.
The other field does not need to be ploughed, because there are basically no weeds in the field with rice and fish, and the rice can be planted directly.
Deng Hongxia's one-acre paddy field, because of learning from Liu Wen's practice, also put loaches and rice fish, and there is no need to plow, and it was already full of seedlings yesterday afternoon.
Now the sun is too poisonous, the morning and morning are not suitable for transplanting, the roots of the seedlings that have just been planted have not yet settled, and the water is not smooth enough to transport water to the leaves, and the tips of the seedlings will be burned to death when they are roasted by the strong sun, which will greatly affect the future development and growth of rice.
The day before yesterday and yesterday, more than a dozen tourists from Deng Hongxia's family had a particularly good time in the fields. When harvesting rice, when he saw the rice fish, he went to catch it, and the fish was also cunning, and immediately hid in the rice bushes, attracting tourists to harvest the rice more hard to catch the rice fish.
Some tourists step on the loach on the soles of their feet, and they are immediately frightened and exclaimed, they heard that the rice is not cut after the loach, and they immediately pick up the mud to catch the loach, the mud is soft and contains water, how can the loach be so easy to catch?
After playing for a morning, I didn't catch a few loaches, but almost all of them turned into mud monkeys. The group was covered in mud, and they jumped directly into the ditch and continued to play in the water. Under the repeated urging of the dog, he reluctantly got up from the water and went back to breakfast.
From threshing and threshing to planting rice, a group of tourists all participated in it, and they had a great time! There was only one acre of land, but nearly 20 people participated, and the average person had more than half a cent of land, and indeed there was more play than labor.
It is worth mentioning that Deng Hongxia was afraid that the tourists would have an accident by stepping on the rice machine, so she just moved out of the big wooden barrel at home and put it in the field.
This method is more fun and safe, and Deng Hongxia's carefulness is fully reflected in this little thing.
In the afternoon, Liu Wen's family, before the sun set, planted seedlings in the two fields. Yang Yong's family and Professor Lin and his wife originally offered to help. However, they were tired from a hard day yesterday, and when they woke up in the morning, their whole bodies were sore, and their walking posture was obviously wrong, so Liu Wen politely declined their kindness.
Five people divide two acres of land, and the average person is four points, in fact, it is not much, and late rice transplanting is not like early rice, it also needs to be subdivided one by one, and late rice is completely inserted one by one, and it doesn't matter if there is more or less.
The rice is dried in the sun for several days, and then the empty husks and broken rice leaves are blown away by a small windmill and weighed one by one. Deliberately distinguish the one acre and two points of the field, harvesting more than 1,200 catties of rice, while the eight-point field has harvested nearly 900 catties, it seems that the rice field fish farming can achieve a double harvest of fish and rice.
After Liu Wen told the village chief the news, the village chief decided to promote the rice-fish farming model in the whole village next year.
Today, Liu Wen is going to go to Taoyuan to cut some honey and come back, and by the way, he will go to the ditch to catch some mountain crabs and mountain stream catfish and come back to taste.
Liu Wen led Qing'er to call Yang Yong and his wife to Taoyuan together. The old man still habitually lives in a bamboo house next to the peach orchard, and although the peaches in Taoyuan are picked, there are still more than 500 chickens. The old man was not at ease, he insisted on living in a bamboo building, and Liu Wen had no choice but to let the old man be.
Walking into Taoyuan, Liu Wen pretended to change into a thin raincoat, put on a hat with a scarf hanging down, and put gloves on his hands, in short, there was no skin exposed on his body.
Liu Wen went down to the big rock alone to cut honey, and the old man, Qing'er, and Yang Yong and his wife watched nervously and worriedly from a distance.
Liu Wen unveiled the beehives, first fed the queen bee some space spirit liquid to appease her, and then successfully cut off three pieces of honey and put them into a clean small bucket. Close the lid again, strain it with clean gauze when you go back, and the sweet and delicious honey will be in your hands.
Then it's time to catch mountain crabs and mountain stream catfish. Liu Wen found a suitable place to put down the big basket, and then walked more than 100 meters upstream. Dense weeds grow on both sides of the ditch, and there are also lush aquatic plants growing in the ditch. In this kind of place, no fish can be caught with nets and kites, and the best way is to go down and drive the fish into the basket.
"Brother Yong! There must be crab holes on both sides of this ditch, after touching the hole, if the soil at the bottom of the hole is relatively soft, walk with the back of your hand against the bottom of the hole, after touching the crab's claws, your hand passes through the mud under the crab, and then your fingers are hooked to drag the crab out to catch it. Rest assured, the hand is next to the bottom of the hole, and it usually won't pinch people, because it's also afraid! The palm and arm of the person are so big, what kind of monster does it think it is? So the crab's first reaction is to dodge, and it will fight back when it has no choice. Liu Wen confessed before entering the water.
"Okay! Yang Yong, who was standing on the shore, was eager to try and couldn't wait to get into the water.
