After walking down the mountain, Li Ying turned to the left and Qin Mo returned to their respective homes to the right.

Qin Mo carried the water to the backyard on his back, and heard a 'clang' in front of the door. Syllable. Syllable. The sound of an axe chopping bark.

Qin Mo chuckled in his heart for no reason, his head was gone, and when he took two more steps, he saw a person standing in the front yard, with his back to her, a big man in a blue cloth shirt, wrapped around the top of his head with a strip of cloth, no shoes, not many people who can afford to wear shoes if they are not rich, maybe because they are laborers, strong men, and they have to do heavy work every day, so they are not particular about it, so they don't wear it, standing barefoot on the muddy ground in the yard, today is cloudy, the mist covers the ground in the early morning, and it has only been raining for two days, the mud is not dry, wet, There were some shallow footprints on it.

You can see the clear lines of the toes on the soft clay.

Oh, you are Brother Wu, you are really trustworthy——!

I don't know why, but I saw that he was already working here: looking at the bark on the ground—most of the trees had been shaved, it must have been half an hour, and I only felt that this man was really trustworthy, and he was not late or irresponsible for his work because she was a child and asked him to be a craftsman.

Qin Mo was faintly happy in his heart, because he felt that he had met a good person again.

The man's lips were tightly closed, and there was a sense of manly intuition on his body, and he saw Qin Moxi talking to him with a smile.

But he turned his head and glanced at Qin Mo, ignored it, and continued to work.

'Boom-boom-' The blade grinded against the smooth trunk of the bark with a loud sound.

Qin Mo didn't talk to him for the time being, but he still felt that this person's heart was not bad.

I didn't care about his indifference to himself just now.

Qin Mo cleaned the mud on the ground of the stone jar and shoveled it out with an iron knife, this stone jar should not be used to hold draft, it may be placed here to catch the rain in the sky, and then use the water in it to wash rice and vegetables, but Qin Mo is now going to clean it out and hold draft.

Although no one has cleaned the stone tank for a long time, Qin Mo is not so laborious to wash, but it is not effortless, just washing the tank, the soil and sand, used up most of the bucket of water that Qin Mo carried back, as if the first bucket of water was called to wash the tank, and finally, when Qin Mo washed the bottom of the tank, and then poured the clean water in the bucket into it, it spread a layer under the stone tank, and it looked as if there was no water.

Alas, Qin Mo sighed, and then wiped his sweat with his arm.

I had to call Liying and the two of them to carry the second trip.

Then, going up and down the mountain, together with Liying, Qin Mo came back with two buckets of water, both of which were poured into the stone jar.

And Liying finally carried a bucket more than Qin Mo, it may be that Aunt Li gave Liying an order to fill their water tank, Liying has parents in charge, and she is afraid of her mother, so she can only do it.

And Qin Mo, although he was not as tired as Liying, and someone was strictly in charge, he planned to start cooking lunch immediately after carrying the water on the way back on the third trip...

It's almost time, and today the family uses a craftsman.

Hungry craftsmen will gossip, Qin Mo has always known this, so he doesn't want to be gossiped or ridiculed - this family is very poor and very despised, in case this spreads again, people will not just laugh at it, they will probably only say that this family is already poor, and it is normal for two girls to be able to start a family, and they can't afford to eat.

That Qin Mo felt uncomfortable.

In the middle of the afternoon, you can go to the town to pick up your clothes, and just wait for noon to serve this meal.

Just do what you say.

The stone stove built yesterday is almost ready to use today, and the stone blocks are not the cement used for modern bricklaying, but the sediment, which dries relatively quickly.

Qin Mo wanted to try it, so he took out the big iron pot that was placed at the door of the house, scooped a scoop of water into it with a melon scoop, and the linen cloth was washed twice along the edge of the pot, then poured it out and scooped it again, and finally washed it clean.

Put it on the newly made stove, the size of the side of the pot was just right, and it happened to close with the mouth, Qin Mo was overjoyed in his heart, with a big pot, it was easy to cook.

It's easy to cook.

Qin Mo also put the small stove before, not only to make a profit, but also to start the stove on both sides.

Qin Mo scooped the white rice in a jar and then steamed it on a small stove.

Underneath he lit a fire with firewood, and lit it little by little, followed by firewood.

On this side, white rice was boiled, and on the other side, Qin Mo cut off some of the meat.

Wash the top salt with water, put two scoops of water in a large pot, and throw the meat in.

And add firewood under the cauldron ...

After today's meal is cooked, there will be no firewood left behind it.

Qin Mo should have planned to go up the mountain to collect firewood once.

The meat is boiled, scooped up, vertical water, yesterday's cold white meat was not too good a dish, today, Qin Mo is going to fry a good meat dish.

The fat and thin meat was evenly cut into centimeter-thick slices, one by one, and then took out one of the cabbages he bought that day from the back basket, that time he went to the county seat, Qin Mo didn't buy many vegetable varieties, because one is not much, and the scarce vegetables are naturally expensive, Qin Mo was not willing to spend money to buy it, so he bought a few more lotus cabbages, and after eating, he can side dishes, he ate one yesterday, and he still uses this dish today.

Lotus white stir-fry back to the pot.

The meat was cut and the lotus white was torn into pieces.

When the fire started, a hot steam immediately came up in the pot of the iron pot.

First put some sesame oil, then the pig's head, and as soon as you put it in, the boiled meat snorted in the sesame oil.

Stir-fry a few times in a large pot with a wooden spatula, then simmer in oil, and take advantage of the gap to bend down and throw two handfuls of firewood into it.

Smack - when the vegetables are put into the oil pot, there is an oil splash pop immediately, and the muffled sound of the carpenter cutting wood with an axe complements each other.

The meat and vegetables were almost mixed and fried, so Qin Mo put aside the salt, green onions, and ginger.

Immediately, even if the ingredients are not complete, the dish immediately emits that tempting aroma.

However, this stove is set outside, and as soon as the wind blows, it goes in the direction of the carpenter, and the smell makes people fascinated and appetite.

Stir-fried the vegetables, and then, Qin Mo still learned what he did yesterday, not to let the soup of cooking meat go to waste, and put the ground fungus that had been stored where he hadn't eaten for a long time, and when the water boiled, he grabbed two handfuls and threw them in, and the ground fungus immediately boiled, and it rolled in the soup like seaweed, Qin Mo tried to season it again, giving salt and green onions.

When the soup is ready, I went to check the rice simmered in the jar, and it was already ready.

Rice parsley fragrant.

Qin Mo washed his hands before standing, standing at the door and calling Xiangxiang to come back for dinner.
