The three of them sat together, Chen Xuhui brought clean water, and Mu Shui and Mu Xiu began to clean the peanuts, which was to wash the soil on the peanut shells first, drain the water, and then bring them into the kitchen.

Muxiu peanuts fried are delicious because others use clear sand, and she uses salt, this small half pot of salt is the special salt used to fry peanuts, which is ordinary edible salt, but it has changed color a little after repeated stir-frying.

Mu Xiu used to love to make fried food at home, and this salt was also in the space she used to put in the space.

Mu Xiu set up the largest pot in the house, poured salt into the iron pot, started to stir-fry the salt on the fire, heated the salt in the iron pot, and then poured the raw peanuts in the shell into the pot and stir-fried them with the salt, the whole process should be uninterrupted to turn the peanuts, otherwise the taste will not be good.

Because there were too many peanuts in the iron pot, Mu Xiu stir-fried for a while, Chen Xuhui then stir-fried, and the two of them took turns to rest and replace, about twenty minutes or so, and heard the peanuts constantly making a crackling sound, at this time, extinguish the fire in the stove, turn it for another minute, and let the peanuts stay in the pot for five minutes.

Then use a colander to remove the peanuts, shake the colander when serving, leave the edible salt in the pot, and put the peanuts in a dustpan to cool.

In this way, it took nearly two hours to fry 30 catties of peanuts, and then to make spiced soybeans.

Mu Xiu soaked soybeans yesterday and prepared to make tofu to eat, and he happened to use it today.

It wasn't until Mu Xiaocao came back with Li Pandi that Mu Xiu put the fried soybeans and peanuts into the jar to prevent them from being crispy due to moisture.

"Dad, get up early tomorrow morning to make popcorn, it tastes better." Mu Xiu folded her hands and moved her wrists, which really tired her.

"Okay, you can rest quickly, but you're tired." Mu Shui said curtly, after all, it was his next matter.

Zhou Shuilian made dinner, after everyone hurriedly finished eating, they all lay down to rest, Mu Xiu also burned the kang and got into the warm quilt, now after returning to the countryside, there are no mobile phones, computers, televisions and other electronic entertainment facilities, Mu Xiu also developed the habit of going to bed early and getting up early, this night is sweet and dreamless.

In the early morning, Mu Xiu really struggled for a long time, and after parting with the warm quilt several times, he got up with difficulty, no way, it was important to make money.

Mu Xiu thought that he had gotten up early enough, but he didn't expect that the kitchen had been lit with an oil lamp, and when he walked in, he saw Chen Xuhui boiling hot water.

"Brother Chen, why did you get up so early?" Mu Xiu asked in surprise.

"You said you should get up early in the morning to make popcorn, I was afraid that you wouldn't be busy, so I came over to help, the hot water is boiling, you hurry up and soak your hands." Chen Xuhui said with concern.

Mu Xiu's heart warmed, but he didn't expect that Chen Xuhui's mind became more and more delicate, in this year or so, he has matured and stabilized a lot, although he is still a teenager, but his heart is more mature, that calm breath makes people have an inexplicable sense of security, but he doesn't like to talk about his character, which is very similar to Lu Yuan.

Mu Xiu shook his head, where did he go, Lu Yuan is Lu Yuan, Chen Xuhui is Chen Xuhui, two different people, what is the similarity.

"So?" Chen Xuhui saw the confused look on Mu Xiu's face, and seemed to have some other thoughts, but he didn't seem to say anything that shouldn't be said.

"It's okay, it's too cold, it's a little trance, I'll wash my face first." Mu Xiu quickly changed the topic.

After Mu Xiu finished washing, he began to make popcorn, and the two of them cooperated with each other, and soon, twenty catties of popcorn were also ready, at this time, Zhou Shuilian also got up, let Mu Xiu and Chen Xuhui rest first, and she made breakfast.

After breakfast, Chen Xuhui and Mu Shui drove the ox cart to the market, and after Mu Xiu fed the chickens, ducks, geese and pigs, he went back to the room.

The 100 catties of dried fungus that Liu Xuenu wanted, Mu Xiu had already packed the sack here, and now the pit is burned, the kang is big, and it is enough for Mu Xiu to sleep half, and the remaining half is covered with newspapers, specially drying shiitake mushrooms and fungus.

Zhou Shuilian and Mu Xiaocao, sitting on the kang, making shoes for the two children, Li Pandi took Mu Xiaohua and played with building blocks in the innermost part of the kang, this building block was still taken out by Mu Xiu from the space, and it was deduced that it was brought back from the provincial capital, saying that the children over there all play this, and the toys in the city are good, and the two children really like to play.

"Xiu is too afraid of the cold, and in broad daylight, the pit is still burning." Mu Xiaocao felt the temperature on the kang begin to warm up.

"When I was young, I lost my body, I was afraid of the cold, do you remember, Xiu was so cold that he was bruised all over his body, the same size as a cat, I almost thought I couldn't raise it." Zhou Shuilian sighed, and then asked, "Is our firewood enough to burn?" ”

"It's not, it's okay, mother, don't worry, even if you burn it like this every day, you can burn it until next winter." Mu Xiaocao also remembered the pitiful appearance when Mu Xiu first picked it up, and there was a trace of distress in her tone.

Immediately, Mu Xiaocao thought of the three rooms upstairs and the full pile of soybeans, sesame seeds, and corn stalks in the downstairs room, and said with confidence.

"That's okay, when the spring starts next year, the crops are harvested, and there are a lot of straws, all of which will be harvested and used for Xiunuan Kang." Zhou Shuilian moved her body, the kang was comfortable, the temperature in the room was higher, and her hands were much more flexible.

"I see that the radish and cabbage are also ripe, rush to Ming'er, quickly collect it and store it in the cellar, this greenhouse is now put in mushrooms and fungus, and vegetables can't be grown." Mu Xiaocao took the needle and looked out the window at the greenhouse.

"This glass is really good, it doesn't hurt your eyes at all when you do needlework in the house, and you can see clearly outside." Zhou Shuilian looked out along Mu Xiaocao's line of sight and said with a smile.

"Still no lights on." Mu Xiu still felt that the light was a little dim.

"That's true, the electric light in the room was really bright when we were in the provincial capital, and I don't know when we can use the electric light here." Zhou Shuilian said expectantly.

"The county is basically electrified, and we estimate that it will be fast here." Mu Xiu stayed in the room at this time, the temperature in the room gradually warmed up, she felt more comfortable, from yesterday to today, her arms were sore, she was half lying on the kang, listening to the conversation between Zhou Shuilian and Mu Xiaocao, and lazily answered.

"I've seen enough, I'll have to wait at least two years." Mu Xiaocao said calmly on the side.

I really don't want to splash Muxiu and Zhou Shuilian with cold water, it will take a year or two before the village is electrified, and it is not always there is electricity after the electricity is turned on, sometimes there is electricity and sometimes there is no electricity, and the power is limited from time to time...... The most terrible thing is that the situation did not stabilize until the 90s.
