Chapter 47: Frying Pan
Maizi looked at her achievements in the past few days, and felt that her efforts were not in vain, although Grandpa Mai and Grandma Mai both slept in the tent, but they both gave Maizi great praise.
Grandpa Mai touched the comfortable straw mat under his body, and sighed in his heart: That woman seems to have taught some girls skills seriously.
He couldn't afford those brands, but none of the things that came out of that woman's hands were not hailed as 'classics'.
Even the little granddaughter was affected, and he likes to make things all day long, and he didn't care much when he saw the little things made of straw by the girl before... Hehe~ He is...
Forget it, go to sleep! Tomorrow, I have to send the two children to the prison, and my wife is at home alone to watch the nursery, and he is not at ease.
He sent it over and immediately rushed back to look at the nursery.
Grandpa Mai looked at his wife, who was already asleep, slowly turned over, closed his eyes and fell asleep.
……
"Grandpa, let's water the field today, soak it for a few days, and then it's time to plug in... Good transplanting" Mai looked at the excellent rice seedlings growing in the nursery, and in a few days the seedlings could be planted.
Grandpa Mai listened to Maizi's words, patted the soil in his hand, clicked on the record he made, and looked at it for a long time before raising his head.
"Okay, look at your dad the other day, your dad taught you" Grandpa Mai noticed that he looked like he didn't understand what he was talking about.
Mai Zi looked at Grandpa Mai's automatic brain supplement speechlessly, and she didn't say anything and acquiesced. Although she asked Daddy Mai in detail how to grow rice that day, many places are still different...
Hehe~ God is on her side...
"Well, Dad said a lot!" Maizi nodded.
Grandpa Mai checked the irrigation equipment he designed again, and when he saw that there was no problem, he nodded to Maizi and motioned for Maizi to come over.
"Grandpa, make this amount of water smaller, don't let the water flow slowly, let it flow slowly into the ground," Maizi commanded as he stood aside.
Maizi asked Grandpa Mai to irrigate a total of 12 plots of land, and she felt that this was redundant, and when the seedlings were planted, the rest of the fields would be filled with water.
According to the calculation of one pound of rice planting one acre, then these rice seeds should be able to grow more than 8 acres of land.
The land here is square by Grandpa Mai, so she asked Grandpa Mai to measure it, and 1 piece of land is about 680 square meters, a little more than 1 acre. About 8 plots of land are sufficient, but just in case you need to water 4 more plots, for a total of 12 plots.
Grandma Mai held the little bun to prevent him from making trouble, so she quietly watched Grandpa Mai busy with his work, feeling that she had finally done a big thing in her life! No loss!
"Okay, grandparents, let's go in, it's going to take a long time to water" Maizi watched the sun get a little sun, and went back to rest at noon.
"Girl, go back and rest, grandma and grandpa are watching here" Grandma Mai also made a decision directly for Grandpa Mai.
"Eh~ This has to be seen when, the position where the water reaches a little up the ankle is about the same, and it will take a few times. This will just start, the ground is still seeping water, and it will be very early when the water is stored~" Maizi watched the water seep down as soon as it entered the ground, which is not a short time.
After all, it is the first time that the field has been newly irrigated, and it takes several times to turn the dry field into a paddy field.
Maizi looked at Grandma Mai speechlessly, their faces were flushed with joy, silently turned around and went in, drank a lot of water in one go, and poured a big glass of water after a while.
"Grandpa, come over and drink some water first~" Maizi shouted as she stood beside Grandma Mai.
"Sister drink water~" The little bun finished drinking, and still pushed Grandma Mai's water, indicating that my sister hadn't drunk it yet.
"Good ~ sister has drunk it, let grandma drink it" Maizi raised his head and looked at Xiao Baozi's red and puffy fleshy face.
"Grandma, let's eat fish stew at noon today" Maizi watched Grandma Mai finish drinking the water, without covering the cup, waiting for Grandpa Mai to come over and drink water.
"Okay~" Grandma Mai agreed.
Since Grandma Mai compromised with Xiao Baozi, almost all of the family's lunch is fish balls, although the machine for making fish balls has been moved, but she has taught Grandma Mai how to make fish balls by hand.
En~ Although the handmade fish balls seem to be more elastic, I don't like to eat wheat anymore, and I am tired of eating it every day~
"Make one more fish today~" Maizi looked at Grandpa Mai still revolving around each piece of land, and felt that Grandpa Mai was really a good farmer uncle~ No~ He was a good farmer grandfather!
"Let's just stew on the ground, no wind and no dust," Grandma Mai thought for a moment.
Maizi looked at Grandma Mai speechlessly, do you even have to stay here for cooking time?
"Okay, just a picnic~" Maizi nodded helplessly. She felt that she had been in a very helpless state recently.
As soon as Maizi nodded, she saw Grandma Mai going straight to the kitchen with the little bun in her arms.
Maizi was dumbfounded and watched Grandma Mai carry the small bun back and forth several times.
"Grandma, I'll kill the fish" Maizi watched as Grandma Mai finally brought out the fish.
"Girl, will killing fish here affect the nursery?" said Grandma Mai, looking at the nursery only 10 meters away, worried.
"No, grandma, even if you put the water in to kill the fish, it's fine" Maizi started killing the fish with his hands and feet. In her previous life, she had to go to the nursery every afternoon after school, and the water was really... It looks cloudy and can't do it, so I still pour it into the nursery.
"That's not good, grandma will pour the water away from the fish later," Grandma Mai immediately vetoed Maizi's words.
Maizi continued to kill the fish, looking at Grandma Mai with her back to her, "Grandma, you can go in and get a few more bowls"
Maizi took Grandma Mai away, and she neatly gutted the fish. Mai Zi neatly packed up the fish.
"Grandpa, come over and do me a favor and chop the fish into pieces," Maizi shouted as he looked at Grandpa Mai.
Grandpa Mai turned around step by step, chopped the fish in a few clicks, and then immediately put down the knife and ran over again in great strides.
Mai stewed the fish into the pot and sat there to watch Grandpa Mai continue to patrol the fields.
"Grandpa, you can make me another pot~ This one is not enough," Maizi shouted.
The first time I boiled fish balls in a basin before, Grandpa Mai saw that it was not safe, so he took the time to make a pot with a handle for Maizi, which was deeper than the basin to prevent the water from boiling and splashing out and hurting people.
Maizi is looking for something for Grandpa Mai to do, for fear that Grandpa Mai will turn around like this, and when the time comes to plant seedlings, people will not be able to stand it.
"Grandpa will do it for you in the evening" Grandpa Mai did not immediately agree.
"Grandpa, don't you look at the nursery at night?" Maizi blinked and said.
"Okay" Grandpa Mai thought for a moment and went to look for materials.
"Eh~" Maizi watched dumbfounded as Grandpa Mai also moved things to the ground.
"Grandpa, aren't you dazzling here?" Maizi looked at the tools.
"Hehe, it's okay, grandpa has a work mirror" Grandpa Mai calmly took out a box and took the things out with him.
Maizi looked at the sunglasses that covered most of Grandpa Mai's face, and felt that Grandpa Mai was like a hacker.
"Grandpa, I want a frying pan~" Maizi watched Grandpa Mai prepare to start, and hurriedly gestured on the ground first.
"Eh~ It's too shallow, this..."Grandpa Mai looked at the things that Maizi drew on the ground, no matter how you look at it, it's not safe.
"I don't boil water and use this, grandpa, you make it first" Maizi originally wanted to say that this was stir-fried, but after thinking about it, she still didn't say it, because she didn't know how to explain what 'stir-frying' was.
Grandpa Mai thought about it, but still felt that it was safer to add a pot lid.
