Chapter 850: Eating is a top priority
Jiang Hua put down the carving knife in her hand, gently put the semi-finished product of the milk fruit Qiangong Pulling Bed in her hand on the soft cloth, rubbed her neck that was a little sore, and she stood up and stretched.
This is the fourth milk fruit worker bed she began to make during this time.
The previous three, although they had been formed, were shelved by her because of a mistake in carving, and were placed on a wooden shelf as ordinary ornaments.
There is a very big problem with the intricate carving of the milk fruit, the carving speed must be fast, if it cannot be completed before the milk fruit is set, it can no longer be carved.
However, as soon as the knife is dropped, it is easy to make more mistakes.
It was a very strenuous and exhausting job, but it was very training for her knife skills.
She could clearly feel that after this period of training, her knife fell more smoothly and meticulously, and the probability of making mistakes became less and less.
The first three milk fruit thousands of workers pull out the bed, although they are defective, but the carving mistakes on their bodies are fewer than the last.
And this time, two-thirds of the milk fruit has been completed, and so far, Jiang Hua has not made any mistakes.
I looked at the time, and it was already time for dinner.
The wings of her nose twitched, and she sensitively smelled a scent faintly entering her studio.
Today it was Lin Zeng who came to get dinner, and Jiang Hua decided to go out and have a look right away.
"Lao Lin, what are you going to eat tonight?" Jiang Hua trotted all the way to the kitchen, and saw Lin Zeng busy in front of the cooking table with his back to the door, so he rushed up and patted him on the shoulder, "Is there anything you need my help with?"
After getting along for more than a year, the two of them have gradually stabilized. The old forest painted by Jiang and Lin Zeng's paintings sometimes inadvertently numb.
"The meals are simple to make, stewed meat, stir-fried vegetables, steamed fish, boiled crab, convenient and not delayed. Lin Zeng took out two deep-sea bowls from the cupboard and handed them to Jiang Hua, "Fill the rice! I'll put the fish on a plate and start the meal." ”
"Okay!" Jiang Hua finished washing his hands by the sink in the kitchen, splashed his face with water a few times, and then took the big bowl brought by Lin Zeng and looked for a rice cooker to serve rice.
Lifting the lid of the rice cooker, the pungent fragrance rushed in, Jiang Hua couldn't help but take a deep breath, and inhaled the oncoming simple rice fragrance into his heart.
"It's so fragrant, isn't it the smell of rice crackers, is this new rice?" Jiang Hua's palm swayed quickly above the rice cooker, waving away the hot steam.
"New, especially new rice, just harvested two days ago and just arrived an hour ago. Lin Zeng took the steamed grouper out of the pot and went straight to the living room.
Jiang Hua took the rice spoon and stood next to the rice cooker, seriously pondering the half pot of dry rice.
Well, the blue rice, it's the first time she's seen it.
Doesn't it mean that cold colors affect her appetite, and why does she think it tastes good when she looks at it?
Looking closely at the rice in the rice cooker, the particles are secreted, mixed with silk blue threads, and the rice grains are full, at least twice the size of ordinary rice, and the rice is fragrant.
Forget it, don't dwell on it.
Anyway, Lao Lin said that he could eat it, so he could taste it boldly with confidence.
Jiang Hua scooped up a ball of dry rice with a shovel.
The two sea bowls containing rice can be used as soup bowls in ordinary people's homes, but in Jiang Hua and Lin Zeng, they are just rice bowls.
As for the soup, they were served in pots.
In their homes, there are few pocket-sized bowls, and the occasional two, which are also used for dipping sauces rather than serving things.
Jiang Hua walked out of the kitchen with the rice piled up in Jianjian Mountain, and saw that Lin Zeng had already cleaned up the food.
Sue!
I started work all morning, and my stomach was flattened with hunger.
Jiang Hua put a rice bowl in front of Lin Zeng, and simply picked up the chopsticks, held the big bowl, and pulled several mouthfuls of rice.
"Hmm ”
"The tropical seawater rice planted at the base in Nanhai Province is still in the experimental planting stage, and now it is only six catties, and after two months, you can eat it to your heart's content. Lin Zeng also took a bite and felt really good, "Two months later, the number of plantings has increased, in addition to our own food, the other part is for No. 90 East Street, and some is for the old customers of Xenodu Company." ”
"It's a good plan. Jiang Hua took a few bites before tasting slowly, she carefully studied the rice in the bowl and asked, "Is this blue silk the germ of rice?" ”
"That's right, brown rice. Lin Zeng affirmed Jiang Hua's guess, although the seeds grown by special plants cannot be planted, but it does not affect the normal structure of their ordinary fruits, and seawater rice, like ordinary rice, germ and bran are the most nutritious.
"However, I don't think the texture of rice is as rough as regular brown rice, so it's hard to eat. "Jiang Hua chewed and chewed, the more he chewed, the more delicious it became, and after such a while, he ate the sharp mountain of the rice bowl without a single bite of food. "I used to know that brown rice was more nutritious, but I always felt that it was not delicious and not easy to cook, so I didn't like to buy it once I bought it. But this brown rice is really delicious, a bit of QQ taste, but not sticky to the teeth, very delicate. If brown rice were so delicious, I think everyone would buy it every day. Nutritious and delicious ingredients, who doesn't love them!"
"Because it is soaked in seawater for a long time during the growing season, the bran of this rice is not rough, and it can be eaten directly as long as the husk is peeled off. When I was cooking rice just now, I found that I didn't need to put too much water to cook this kind of rice, and as long as I used half the time of ordinary rice, I could make delicious cooked rice. Lin Zeng explained.
"Next time, I'll use a wooden barrel to steam a bucket on a wood stove to see if it will be more fragrant. Jiang Hua was eager to try.
For people living in the south, a bowl of fragrant rice on the dinner table can directly improve the happiness of the meal.
In daily life, if there is no rice, no matter how you eat it, it is not beautiful.
Jiang Hua is a native of the South, and for her, the charm of a bowl of charming rice is worth a full table of delicious food.

A week after Zhou Mingjiao sent the seawater rice branches and leaves, and rice, he received the rice seeds sent by Lin Zeng.
He weighed it on an electronic scale, and there were five and a half pounds of seawater rice seeds.
Now, he alone could not complete the sowing of rice.
Zhou Mingjiao immediately began to arrange the seawater rice planting work non-stop according to Lin Zeng's request.
Just the boats needed for the planting base need to buy a variety of them. Lightweight and nimble dinghy, specially designed for use when planting. Larger fishing boats have to go out to sea at harvest time, which is enough for Zhou Mingjiao to be busy.
The manpower of the planting base is definitely insufficient.
Fortunately, he had reported to Lin Zeng in advance and applied to recruit new employees. During this time, the old employees in the base were also mobilized to actively contact the old comrades-in-arms in the past and join the Danube Mountain planting base.
At the Danube Mountain Plantation Base, all the current employees are veterans from the army, as well as military families. The new employees are all comrades-in-arms introduced by the old employees, so the base still retains a very strong military style.
The uniform is uniform, the atmosphere is rigid, and even every morning, these veterans will go out on time to drill and practice their physique.
