Chapter 80: Thoughtless
Uh~, Yu Wuya was stunned for a moment, and couldn't help asking, "Why?" There are still many people in Wancheng waiting for Engong's fairy tea, let's go back early while the weather is fine! ”
"No, I just want to stay one more day!"
Shui Qingrou's face turned red and he didn't dare to look at Yu Wuya, his fingers lightly twisted the belt of his clothes, and his expression was slightly like a little daughter, changing his indifferent appearance yesterday.
"The water girl can stay for an extra day, depending on the weather, it won't rain in the next few days!" Chen Jiang put down his pole and smiled slightly.
"Engong, look at ......" Yu Wuya looked at Chen Xu.
"It's okay, it's better to wait for Wancheng's enthusiasm for tea to wane a little." Chen Xu thought for a moment and nodded.
"Hehe, that's just right, I also want to stay for two more days, I haven't eaten enough delicious food!" Yu Wuya smiled and hurriedly carried the two baskets of tea back and put them in the living room.
Chen Xu said helplessly: "Then help me harvest wheat!" ”
Yu Wuya's face immediately distorted like a bitter gourd, and he said: "Engong, didn't you say that the braised beef noodles are still poor, tell me what ingredients to use, I'll get them, and eat the braised beef noodles at night!" ”
Chen Xu's cheeks twitched a few times and said, "Can you get beef?" ”
"That...... Killing cattle is illegal, and Wancheng is not easy to get! Yu Wuya's mood suddenly fell.
"That's right, and there is no noodles, wait until I find a way to grind the wheat into flour, in fact, you can also eat braised pork ribs noodles with flour!" Chen Xu touched his chin and said.
Yu Wuya's eyes lit up, "How can you grind wheat into flour?" ”
"That's it, anyway, if you're idle, just go to Qinghe Town and find a stonemason to help me build a special stone mill back!"
"Okay, tell me what the stone mill you want looks like?" Yu Wuya nodded again and again.
"Come in with me!" Chen Xu walked into the room, turned out a crumpled burlap, and then used charcoal strips to draw a composite stone mill on it.
"The stone mill is two fans, the same size up and down, three feet in diameter, one foot thick, all in the center of the hole two inches wide, the lower circle, the upper one in the center of the distance of one foot to open a hole, three inches wide, the eyelet around the slightly concave down, the bottom to cut off half an inch, the fan surface out of eight equal parts of the radial arc edge, like a carriage hub, three points high, five points wide groove, the lower one is also eight equal parts of the radial spoke groove, the specifications are the same as the above, right, The top one also has two half-foot-deep square holes in the very center of the side to install the grinding arm, and then go to the blacksmith to build a rotor and looper......"
Chen Xu said while marking various numbers on the drawings he drawn, and explained them several times, until Yu Wuya nodded and said that he remembered them all, then he rolled up the linen cloth and handed it to him and said: "This is my invention and improvement of the stone mill, if you successfully grind the fine flour, you can eat noodles, steamed buns, steamed buns, dumplings, pancakes, tofu in the future......"
Every time Chen Xu said a word, Yu Wuya's expression was pleasantly surprised, and he hurriedly took the linen cloth with the stone grinding pattern and said: "Don't worry, Engong, I will go back to the trivial things!" ”
"Well, bring enough money, this stone mill is quite troublesome to build, if you don't have enough time, find a few more stonemasons to get it together, and rush back before dark!" Chen Xu hurriedly admonished.
"Provincial of the province!" Yu Wuya couldn't wait, although he didn't know what the steamed buns and pancakes and tofu Chen Xu said just now, but looking at Chen Xu's yearning look, they must all be very delicious.
Yu Wuya loaded a bunch of money and turned over the horse, and at the same time led a horse and left in a hurry, Chen Xu's heart instantly relaxed a lot, as long as the stone grinding came back, the quality of the meal would be improved by more than ten grades in an instant, and there was no longer any need to eat these brown rice and coarse grains with shells every day, and those delicate pasta in the future could probably be made.
The legend of stone mill was invented by Lu Ban, and the Chinese used it very early, but according to the data of later generations, this common composite stone mill in later generations has not yet appeared, once this innovative stone mill is spread and promoted, the quality of life of the Chinese will soon be greatly improved.
Chen Xu is looking forward to getting up in the morning to be able to eat hot steamed buns, fritters and soy milk.
"The big river flows eastward, and the stars in the sky are in the Beidou!"
"Hey, hey, hey, hey, Beidou, don't look back in the water and fire......"
Under the strong sunshine, by the sparkling river, the villagers were in full swing to harvest the remaining wheat, and began the chorus of heroic songs full of rivers and lakes.
Chen Jiang was cutting the wheat, and Xing'er carried the cut wheat and put it next to the thresher.
For the thresher, a new type of agricultural tool, Shui Qingrou also showed great interest, wearing a hat, standing in front of the thresher and constantly feeding the ears of wheat inside, with a serious and serious face, and occasionally sneaking a glance at Chen Xu who was shaking the handle with his head buried in it.
Listening to Xing'er, this thresher was also invented by Chen Xu, and this complex machine assembled from wood completely subverted her perception of farm tools, so the prejudice against Chen Xu when she first came yesterday has completely disappeared without a trace.
How many secrets is hidden in this young man who is two or three years younger than her?
Could it be that he is really a disciple of the Immortal Family?
Shouldn't the imaginary immortal disciple be a graceful jade tree in the wind? Why does he look so sloppy.
Or shouldn't the disciples of the Immortal Family look up to mortals like ants? Why does he seem so serene and approachable?
The food he cooks, the herbal tea he makes, the strange things he makes, the mosquito nets, the toothbrushes, the thresher, even the songs he sings, the stories he tells, all unheard of and unseen, he ...... Does he hate me because of his attitude yesterday......
Girls are always pregnant with spring, and girls are always amorous!
Thinking wildly, the water was a little dazed, holding the wheat, and his hands were unconsciously pulled into the feeding port by the rotating main wheel.
"Be careful~" suddenly a loud shout exploded in her ears.
Shui Qingrou suddenly felt that her body was tightened and was already hugged by someone, and she suddenly found that all the wheat stalks in her hands had been rolled into the thresher, and her hands were less than half a foot away from the main wheel that was spinning with a whin.
"Let go~" There was a loud roar in my ears again.
"Ah~~" Shui let out a scream softly, and quickly let go of his hand in fright, accompanied by the sound of fluttering, a large ball of minced wheat stalks squirted out of the discharge port, and her delicate hands were also scratched by rough wheat stalks and leaves, and a few bright red blood beads instantly poured out and dripped down her fingers.
