Lu Yu cooked a big pot of rice in the evening, and braised a grass carp that he had picked up in the afternoon, and boiled a soup. He also has some pickled pork at home, and he stir-fried a few vegetarian dishes with pork. Because of the smooth weather this year and the careful care of Mrs. Yan, there are many types of vegetables in Lu Yu's backyard vegetable garden, and the growth is also very gratifying. So after the beginning of spring this year, Lu Yu's family has never cut off fresh vegetables, and he can also send some to Lu Ming every once in a while.

After resting for a night, Lu Yu got dressed alone and entered the valley early the next morning, and he didn't call the Yan family. After all, they hadn't done much farm work, and they were tired from the day yesterday and needed a good rest. There are more than five acres of rice fields in Anding Valley, and Lu Yu can harvest it in three days at most, even if he is alone.

At noon, when Lu Yu went out of the valley to go home for dinner, he was greeted at the door by Yan Xi'an's cold and angry face. Lu Yu's heart tightened, and before Yan Xi'an could speak, he took the initiative to walk over and admit his mistake.

Yan Xi'an was very angry, and said lightly: "Lu Yu, you remember ......"

Lu Yu was stunned, this is still Yanxi Andi kept calling his name, and he smiled: "You commanded, I remembered." ”

"If the next time you go to Anding Valley alone and don't call me, then I will go into the mountain myself and climb into the valley by myself."

"Don't." Lu Yu panicked: "Then the next time I go out, I will definitely call you, okay." Even if it is inconvenient for you to come with me, I will tell you that you must not climb that high mountain into the Valley of Anding, it is too dangerous. Lu Yu was worried that she would be angry for a while, so she really went to climb the mountain and enter the valley by herself. The mountains around Anding Valley are vertical and steep, and Yan Xi'an's cultivation time is not long, if she really has a mistake, Lu Yu herself will not have to live.

"Hmph, if you go to the valley by yourself, see if I dare to climb it." Yan Xi'an was originally guarding the door, and then he turned sideways to let Lu Yu into the house.

During the meal, Yan Jibai also asked Lu Yu why he didn't call them when he went to the ground. Mrs. Yan even complained to Lu Yu very euphemistically, saying that he regarded his family as outsiders.

Lu Yu actually felt a little guilty. So in the afternoon, when I went into the valley again, there were five people together.

This day was busy, and the next day was another day, and finally more than five acres of rice were cut down and put in the field, Lu Yu decided to rest for a day and then go into the valley to bundle rice.

In the evening, Lu Yu discussed with Yan Jibai where to thresh and dust the rice in the field. Lu Yu remembered that in the past, some people in the village planted a little wheat, and they all moved it to the village soil field, and used oxen to pull the stone stone and crush it, so that the wheat grains fell off the wheat stalks. But Lu Yu definitely can't do this, first of all, how did this rice come from, he can't explain it to the villagers.

Yan Jibai asked Lu Yu if he could bring the rice home, and there was a small open space in the backyard that could be used for threshing.

Lu Yu thought about it and said that this is not appropriate, five acres of rice, the straw will be a big pile, no matter where it is piled up in the yard, it will be seen.

After discussing for a while, the two finally decided that they could only open a dirt field in the Anding Valley, thresh in the valley, and then move the rice home. As for how to grind rice into rice, that's for later.

So after the rice was cut, Lu Yu still couldn't rest, he went to Menhe Village, more than ten miles away, overnight to steal a big stone and moved it into the valley, and decided to go to the earth opening the next day.

The excavation site is not easy, you need to shovel off a piece of turf first, then fill the ground with a shovel and shovel, and then roll it back and forth with a stone stone to compact the ground.

After shoveling in the morning, Lu Yu and Yan Jibai worked together to shovel off a piece of turf ten zhang square, had lunch in the valley, and in the afternoon Lu Yu pushed the stone stone to roll back and forth on the grassless ground.

The stone is generally pulled by a cow with a wooden sleeve, and Lu Yu has no cow or wooden sleeve, so he can only push it in the back by himself. After pushing for a while, feeling a little uncomfortable, Lu Yu had an idea, stood on the stone stone again, and rolled forward on the stone stone.

Lu Yu felt that he was too witty.

Yan Xi'an's sister and brother saw Lu Yu stepping on the stone stone and rolling back and forth in the open space, they both thought it was funny, and clapped their hands and asked Lu Yu to take them to roll together. Lu Yu smiled slightly, and thought secretly: "Rolling around, what's so fun about this." He did not agree to the request of the siblings to "roll together", the stone is very slippery, and it is not easy to stand firm when stepping on it and rolling, and if it falls from above, it is easy to be crushed by the rolling stone.

After rolling for an afternoon, Lu Yu stepped on the heavy stones, his heels and calves were sore, and the soil was finally flattened and solid. In fact, it is not very strong, and Lu Yu will need to press it every once in a while in the future, and it may be a few years before it can be pressed on hard ground like the dirt field in the village.

Another day, Lu Yu entered the valley with a dustpan, a shovel (a farming tool to remove chaff dust from the rice) and a stack of cloth bags. The five people wore long sleeves, wrapped their necks with towels and gauze, and then carried the rice and grass in the field to the soil and laid them down. Because Lu Yu's straw is soft, Lu Yu stood on the stone, so he couldn't step on the stone stone anymore, so he pushed the stone stone and crushed it, round and round, over and over again.

Milling rice is not easier than planting rice and cutting rice, and the stone is very heavy, and the Yan family can't help, so they can change Lu Yu to rest for a while.

After grinding for more than two days, Lu Yu looked at the rice on the ground again, and there were still many rice grains on the ear that had not fallen off cleanly, especially the part of rice that was sandwiched in the middle.

So Lu Yu turned over the rice on the soil field with a fork, and then continued to push the stone stone to grind the rice.

On the morning of the third day, there were only three people in the valley, Yan Xi'an, sister and brother and Lu Yu, Yan Xi'an saw that Lu Yu seemed to be a little tired, so he asked to replace Lu Yu for a while. Lu Yu naturally refused to agree, if it was on flat ground, the stone stone was not so difficult to push, but on the straw it was another matter.

Yan Xi'an rolled up his sleeves and said that he had a lot of strength now, and he could push the stone, and strongly asked to give it a try. Lu Yu remembered that Yan Xi'an's strength was indeed not small now, so she said that she could come and try it a little, but if she felt that it was difficult, she must stop immediately.

Yan Xi'an happily agreed, and then walked to Shi Yan, bent down and put his hand on Shi Yan, and pushed hard - Shi Yan was really pushed and rolled by her.

Lu Yu's eyes lit up, and he asked again: "How is it, will it be heavy?" ”

"Okay, I can push a few laps."

Yan Xiding bit a straw in his mouth, held his hands behind his back, and walked over in an old-fashioned manner, he looked at Yan Xi'an for a while, looked at Lu Yu for a while, and suddenly said: "I can't push this stone stone for a while, why is her strength so great, sister?" Uncle Da Yu, did you teach her martial arts? "This kid is actually very smart.

Lu Yu was about to deny it, but he heard Yan Xi'an grin and said, "Yes, uncle taught me." ”

"Uncle Da Yu, you are really, really partial." Yan Xiding took one of Lu Yu's hands with a sad face, and said, "You teach my sister, don't teach me, you value sex and ignore friends!" Yan Xi'an listened and threw his younger brother a big white eye.

Lu Yu scratched his head and said, "Didn't we talk about it?" I'll teach you when you're eighteen. ”

"It's sixteen!" Yan Xiding shook his head like a rattle again and said, "No, you have to teach me right now." ”

"No, you're too young now, it's not good for your health to practice, and you won't grow taller in the future." Lu Yu said extremely seriously.

Yan Xiding seemed to care about whether he could grow taller, and he asked Lu Yu suspiciously: "Really?" Didn't lie to me? ”

Lu Yu said seriously: "Why should I lie to you? I've already taught your sister, am I still hiding and reluctant to teach you? ”

Yan Xiding nodded in a big way: "That's right, Uncle Da Yu, you are definitely not a person who values color and light friends." ”

"Hehe, of course I'm not." Lu Yu touched Yan Xiding's head and thought, "Young man, the relationship between me and your sister is not ordinary, you don't understand." ”

Yan Xi'an looked at his younger brother with a smug face, smiling without saying a word. Yan Xiding was inexplicably looked at by her sister.

Yan Xi'an pushed the stone stone for a while, but Lu Yu didn't let her push it anymore and came on her own. The day lasted until the evening, and the next day rolled again, and the grains on the ears of rice were finally crushed.

When the grain was shoveled and bagged, the five men went into battle together, and all the rice was packed in one day. Then Lu Yu carried bags back to his house through the teleportation array, and as for the straw, it was all bundled into bales and piled up in the Anding Valley. Straw is also a good thing, it can be used to make fires for cooking, it can also be used to weave straw felt, hemp rope, and even make straw sandals.

All the rice has been returned home, it is already the middle of June, and in two months, the corn and soybeans will be harvested again, and after the corn and soybeans are harvested, the sweet potatoes will be dug again. This year will definitely be much busier than last year, but this is a good thing, and the grain that can be harvested this year will be much more than last year. It seems that all kinds of natural disasters that have been going on for a long time are coming to an end.

After more than two months of free time, Lu Yu naturally wanted to go into the mountains to hunt. Lu Yu hadn't seen a live dragon crocodile for a long time, and he hadn't seen a wild man again, and he hoped that these two things would never come to harass the villagers of Yangshan Village again.

On this day, Mrs. Yan told Lu Yu that there was no rice left at home, and Lu Yu planned to go to other villages to steal a stone mortar and come back to use rice. This time five acres of paddy field, a total of more than 2,000 catties of millet (this harvest is a bit unscientific in ancient times, not so high, but we don't care), if all the rice is scooped into rice, there should be 14,500 catties, which is enough for five people to eat for half a year, plus the corn and soybeans in the field, at least in the past two years, Lu Yu does not have to worry about food.

In addition, Lu Yu plans to plant rice again after the paddy fields in the valley have been idle for two months, so that the valley will be warm all year round, and seedlings can be planted at any time of the year.

There was no stone mortar in Yangshan Village, so Lu Yu went to Menhe Village at night, carrying a large stone mortar and stone vertebrae into the valley, and the rice could only be carried out in the valley, and the rice would be carried home after the rice was ready.
