Brothers and sisters, big brother and sister-in-law, if you feel that the writing is okay, please collect, recommend, click, your support is my biggest motivation. Thank you!

"The fiery red sun has just come out of the mountain, and the morning glow covers half the sky. There were two people walking on the east road, an old man and a young man," Li Laohan from Litang Village sang while walking with a hoe.

"Uncle Li is early, go to the field to be busy." Li Jiahao greeted Li Qinchen, the old man of Li.

"Jiahao, morning. You're really not going out, are you? I heard your grandfather say that you don't want to go out, you baby, you are the only college student in our village, how many people run out with their heads broken, but you run back, I really don't understand what you think as a child. Li Qinchen said.

"I want to stay in my hometown, stay for a few years." Li Jiahao said with a smile.

Li Qinchen is a lonely old man in Litang Village, a daughter married to another village, his wife died a few years ago, and now he lives alone.

"Uncle Li, it's okay to go and play chess with my grandfather, my grandfather thinks about you every day." Li Jiahao said.

"Okay." Saying that, Li Qinchen walked away.

Li Jiahao likes to get up early, a person likes to run, practice tai chi, he feels that this can strengthen the body, the spiritual water of the space gives himself plucking and washing the marrow, although the body is much better than before, but exercise is still essential.

After exercising for an hour, Li Jiahao walked to the pond behind the house, he saw that many fish in it were caught by the third uncle and sold to Ma Wenbiao, and the fish in the pond were only very small, so he opened the space, carried a bucket of water and poured it into the pond, and suddenly many fish swam over. He took a shovel and opened the water from the other inlets to the pond behind his house, and immediately the fish from the other inlets swam over. He put the bigger fish directly into his own space, and then raised them to eat slowly, he decided to buy some fish fry and put them in the pond, while eating them himself, and selling some pocket money by the way.

Li Jiahao brought the spiritual water again to water the fruit trees behind the house, after the last spiritual watering, the fruit trees in the orchard bloomed particularly beautifully, the peach blossoms of the trees were pink and pink, like pieces of fire clouds, and the complex bloomed in the morning light was particularly noisy, dense layers, and like a morning glow. The crystal clear apricot blossoms are waiting to be released, swaying and fluttering in the spring breeze, just like a shy girl, "pink and white fragrance marks spring with rain, light red wine faint with wind" is talking about pear blossoms. The snow-white cherry blossoms, like the fairy spirit of Fenglai Xianshan, walk under the tree, as if you have walked into paradise on earth.

Looking at the colorful fruit trees and flowers in the orchard, Li Jiahao was really happy, the reason why these flowers bloomed so beautifully was entirely due to Lingshui. There were the most peach blossoms in the orchard, about fifteen or sixteen, and he picked a lot of peach petals and put them in the space, probably several baskets, and he was going to keep them for brewing peach blossom wine. Speaking of peach blossom wine, it is Li Jiahao's favorite drink, I remember drinking too much peach blossom wine when I was a child, my face was flushed, I fell asleep during class, and it was because of drinking peach blossom wine, the teacher told my father that I was whipped by my father.

Peach blossom wine is not only delicious, but also has great efficacy, breaking stasis, clearing tendons, invigorating blood, laxative, removing acne, beauty, treating low back and spine pain, etc. Among them, the beauty function is particularly significant, after drinking peach blossom wine, it will keep people's complexion ruddy and delicate, and the green summer is permanent.

There are many ways to brew peach blossom wine, collect peach blossoms, dry them, put them in a wine jar, add koji, and then pour them into the clear spring on the mountain, seal them and bury them in the ground. This method is now brewed less in Litang Village. Litang Village brews peach blossom wine, most of which is made of glutinous rice, wrapped in gauze and put in the wine jar, plus koji, buried in the ground, and some are placed in a cool place out of reach of children, and can be drunk in ten days and half a month. The degree of peach blossom wine brewed in this way is relatively low, but the aroma is compelling, the color is slightly yellow, the taste is sweet, the blood is nourishing and nourishing, the stomach is warmed and the cold is avoided, and the body is strengthened, which is the top grade of nourishment for the middle-aged and elderly.

Li Jiahao now has spatial spiritual water, he doesn't want to use the spring water on the mountain to brew, he wants to use his own spiritual water. Carrying a large basket of peach blossoms, grandma's eyes widened, "Baby, you are going to make peach blossom wine." ”

"yes, I haven't drunk it in a long time outside, and I really miss the taste." Li Jiahao said with a smile.

With peach blossoms, glutinous rice is simple, and the koji is ready-made at home, Li Jiahao took advantage of his grandmother's lack of attention, and replaced his own spring water with spiritual water in the space.

Li Jiahao watched his grandmother busy, but he couldn't intervene, and his grandmother took another wine jar, grandma wanted to brew it separately, one was to brew it at a low degree, and the other was to brew it at a high level.

The glutinous rice is boiled for seven or eight minutes, plus koji, the peach petals are not wrapped in gauze, and the grandmother directly mashes and stirs in the glutinous rice, and seals it, which is a low-alcohol wine, suitable for women and children to drink. Grandma took out another wine jar, added glutinous rice, koji, and poured a pot of sorghum wine, which is very high, no matter how powerful the drunkard, as long as he drinks such a big bowl, he will be dizzy.

I watched my grandmother seal the mixed wine, tie it with plastic film, bury it in the yard, and take it out for ten days and half a month to drink.

Most of the people in the mountains can drink it, and they can also make their own wine, such as Baihua wine, cherry blossom wine, fruit flower wine, and various fruit wines, plum wine, cherry wine, jujube wine, etc. Generally, children like cherry wine and jujube wine the most, after drinking this kind of wine, the remaining wine cherries and jujube wine, after the fermentation of the wine, the taste is really refreshing. From a distance, if you see a child with a red face, it must be because he has eaten wine cherries or wine dates.

After everything was done, Li Jiahao washed his hands, the third aunt had already served the meal on the board, and the grandfather and the third uncle also sat on the board and prepared to eat. At this time, the girl Li Jiahui rubbed her hazy sleepy eyes and came over. Today's breakfast is very simple, a pot of millet porridge, steamed buns, a plate of sour cabbage, a few salted duck eggs, and stuffy soybeans, stuffy soybeans are the most delicious. Stuffed soybeans are boiled, unlike soy beans, which are added with flour and wait for green mold. The stuffed beans are boiled and stuffed directly, plus mashed and fried peanuts, ginger and red pepper from crushed stars. Grandma makes it different from other people's houses, other people's stuffy beans are cooled and white, but grandma makes watermelon juice, beat the watermelon into watermelon juice, add it to the beans, put a little old dry wine, put it in the jar, wrap it with plastic wrap, tie the mouth, and put it away.

When eating, scoop up such a big bowl, boil it, put some coriander, red sauce and red pepper, it tastes sweet and sour, with a hint of spicy, soybeans, peanuts, it tastes really delicious.

Li Jiahao ate two big bowls of porridge and three steamed buns, and there was still the red color of stuffy beans on his mouth, and his grandmother couldn't help laughing: "Baby, you see that you are not too young, and you still have it on your mouth when you eat, are you going to eat it at noon?" ”

"Grandma, it's so delicious, I can't care about wiping my mouth." Li Jiahao smiled embarrassedly.

After eating, everyone went to do their own things, grandpa was going to water the vegetables in the vegetable garden, carrying a bucket and preparing to go out, Li Jiahao looked at it and hurriedly said: "Grandpa, you go out to visit the door, wait for me to water." On the one hand, Li Jiahao is afraid that his grandfather will be tired, and on the other hand, because he Li Jiahao wants to use the spiritual water of the space to water, and the kind of food that comes out is delicious.

"Brother, do you see the little dots? Why haven't I found it for a long time? Li Jiahui pouted.

"yes, I've been busy these days, and I really haven't paid attention to the small ones. You go and ask the third aunt and grandma if they have seen it. ”

"No, I've asked, so I've searched all the rooms, but I haven't seen any of them." Li Jiahui said anxiously.

"Then I really don't know. If you lose it, you will lose it, maybe it will go back to the mountains. Li Jiahao said disapprenowly.

Also, these days are very busy, I really didn't pay attention to the traces of the little bits, maybe he really ran into the mountains as he said, he won't believe that someone else took it, because that little thing is really not a good stubble, if anyone holds it casually, with its big teeth, it will bite off other people's fingers.

Li Jiahui, who couldn't find a little dot, sat on a stool angrily and listened to her mp4, looking around left and right while listening, for fear that an inattentive dot would come back.

Li Jiahao shook his head and walked towards the vegetable garden with a bucket.
