Chapter 280: It's still digging lotus roots
After reading the book, the address of [Wanbenshen Station]: Avoid the pain of chasing books!
The next morning, Lu Yu went to the town with a few fish and seven or eight long lotus roots. When he arrived in Dunlin Town, before going to Lu Ming's house, Lu Yu's heart moved, and he went to the town to guard the courtyard first.
Liang Gen was still in Dunlin Town, and there were many people in the yard, but they were all in the house and did not come out.
Lu Yu didn't knock on the door to call anyone, he put down a few lotus roots and a few fish on the yard, and jumped out of the yard. Liang Gen: They should know who sent this thing, even if they don't know, it doesn't matter.
When they went to Zhang's house, Lu Ming was of course very surprised, and asked Lu Yu why he got so many lotus roots.
"There are a lot of dug in the backyard pool." Lu Yu picked out the mandarin fish again and said, "There is a river far away in Yangshan, which is quite big, and it has not been frozen, and there is this thing in it." ”
"It's a mandarin fish!" Lu Ming smiled and said, "This is a good thing, you can eat here at noon, I will make this fish." ”
"Will you do it?" Lu Ming smiled rarely, which made Lu Yu's heart suddenly feel a lot more relaxed, and he also smiled: "By the way, you have run through Baiweiju, you should have seen mandarin fish." ”
"Hey, hey." Lu Ming suddenly whispered: "Brother, when is it convenient for you, please Mrs. Yan also come to my house to sit and talk to my mother-in-law." ”
"Okay." Lu Yu nodded, and said, "I won't eat at your house at noon, and I have to burn charcoal when I go back." ”
Lu Yu went to see his nephew and niece, exchanged a few words with Ah Li, and then returned to Anding Valley.
The goats were very well-behaved, and they consciously ate the weeds in the valley, and did not step into the vegetable garden even half a step. Lu Yu felt that the sheep were really obedient and smart, and they might not be willing to eat them in the future.
There were vegetables planted in the vegetable garden, of course, there were onions and garlic or something, Lu Yu found a few new onions that were slightly longer and pulled them up. I might make mandarin fish at noon, although Lu Yu didn't know how to get it, but I thought it would be green onions.
When I got home, Mr. and Mrs. Yan had already come over, Mrs. Yan was cooking breakfast in the house, and Yan Xi'an had not gotten up yet. Lu Yu didn't bother them and went to the backyard again.
Now the backyard of Lu Yu's house is empty, the vegetable recipes are covered with half-gray and not black snow, not a single vegetable can be seen, and the dozen or so fruit trees that have been planted for less than a year have long been bare, and there are no leaves left, and it is estimated that they are all dead and can no longer die.
Lu Yu sighed and walked to the edge of the pool. On the other side of the pool, under the mountain wall, there are several huge blocks of ice. Although there is no sign of the ice melting into water, it still becomes smaller after being left outside overnight (sublimation phenomenon).
Lu Yu had the intention to push the ice cubes into the pool again, but thinking that there were still lotus roots in it that had not been dug out, he planned to dig out all the lotus roots in the pool at noon today when the weather was the warmest, and by the way, the pool would also be cleared. The pond is not deep in the first place, and there have been fallen leaves and debris falling into it for a long time, and now it feels even more shallow.
After breakfast, Lu Yu began to burn charcoal. The firewood was cut and piled up in the yard a few days ago, and Lu Yu filled the two charcoal cellars, sealed the mouth of the charcoal cellars, and let the wood simmer in it.
At this time, there was still a long time before noon, and Lu Yu really didn't have anything to do, so he said that he would dig the lotus root again. There are still a lot of lotus roots in the pool that can be dug, and they always have to be made out these days, otherwise it will be even more inconvenient to dig them when they are full of water again.
Yan Xi'an hesitated for a moment, and finally agreed to Lu Yu's "request".
Lu Yu brought the broken shovel and was about to take off his shoes and go down to the pool, when Lao Gao came over and took his son with him.
As soon as Lao Gao saw Yan Jibai, he smiled and said, "Hello Mr. Yan, I came here to ask, is your school still open recently?" ”
Yan Jibai was a little surprised, glanced at Lao Gao, and said, "The weather has been too cold recently, and the children haven't come, so it's not open for the time being." "The room in the village compound is very wide, the front and back doors are not tight, and it is very cold inside, which is not suitable for children to stay for a long time. The most important thing is that the weather is so cold, the ink can't melt and grind.
"Huh." Lao Gao rubbed his hands and said with a smile: "My family's Xiaocai has been sensible recently, and he said that he was fine at home, and he wanted to learn from his husband." Lu Yu felt that Lao Gao was probably talking nonsense, because Lu Yu saw the resentment on Xiaocai's face behind him.
Yan Jibai also smiled and said: "You don't necessarily have to look at it to read, the books you bought, Xiaocai himself reads at home, if you encounter something you don't understand in the book, just ask me again." ”
"Hehe, what Mr. Yan said makes sense, I will stare at him at home and read." Lao Gao changed his face again and said to his son, "Didn't you bring a book?" If there is anything you don't understand, please ask Mr. Yan for advice. ”
"Oh." Xiaocai took out a book from his arms, and really said that there was something he didn't understand to ask for advice.
……
Lu Yu went to the backyard, Lao Gao also followed, he saw the pool in Lu Yu's backyard that had dried up, so he asked Lu Yu, is this just caught a fish.
"I caught a fish and dug up lotus roots." Lu Yu said: "There are still lotus roots at the bottom of the pond that have not been dug up, you can take some back in a while, and bring some to Lu Di." "Lu Yu always has something to share, and if he gives it to Lao Gao, he will definitely not miss Lu Di's share.
"Hehe, if there is, I'd love to try it." Lao Gao probably hasn't eaten lotus root, so he said with a smile: "What, I'm afraid of the cold, so I won't go into the water to help you dig it." ”
Of course, Lu Yu didn't need Lao Gao's help, he told Lao Gao that he had dug it up and sent it to them, and there was nothing to help. Lao Gao was not as cold as Lu Yu, and after staying in the yard for a while, he went into the house. And in the room, Yan Jibai was explaining the book to Xiaocai, but Lao Gao couldn't understand it, and after staying for a long time, he went back again.
The mudflats at the bottom of the pond had long been frozen hard like stones, and Lu Yu had to melt the hard mud before he could put a spade. It's not that he lacks strength and can't dig hard soil, or he is afraid that he will not be able to grasp the severity and will dig up the lotus root at the bottom of the mud.
Lu Yu stepped barefoot on the cold and hard mud ground, and Yan Xi'an asked him, "Uncle, aren't you panicking on the soles of your feet?" ”
"No, it's quite comfortable." Lu Yu grinned, and then began to operate his spiritual power.
Soon, Lu Yu's feet became red and hot, and the mud under his feet was first melted soft, and water came out, and then more and more places were melted and softened, and it didn't take long for the bottom of the pool to become wet and sticky.
……
Lu Yu dug very carefully, the bottom of the pool was turned over by him almost twice, there were really a lot of lotus roots dug out, there were a lot of piles by the pool, Lu Yu estimated that there were three or four hundred catties (lotus roots, sometimes the yield is very high, a skilled lotus root digger can dig hundreds of catties a day).
Yan Xi'an, Yan Xiding, and Lan Shaofang were all watching Lu Yu digging lotus roots, and when they saw that there were so many digging, Yan Xi'an said, "Uncle, it's almost, is there anything else in the pool?" ”
"There should be a little more, I won't dig it, keep it for lotus root seeds." Lu Yu climbed ashore, clapped his hands, didn't care about the lotus root, and pushed a few large ice blocks on the edge of the pool into the pool first.
The silt in the pool was cleared and piled up on the shore, and the pool was a little deeper, and the ice was pushed down, and it was no longer enough to fill the pool.
Yan Xiding said: "There are so many lotus roots, we can't eat them all, won't they rot?" ”
"In this weather, it shouldn't be rotten, and let's give it away." Some people in the village want to send it, Liang Gen in the town, Lu Ming's family, and Liang Kun in the county seat, all want to send some to the past.
"Don't be afraid, we can finish eating." Lan Shaofang likes to eat raw lotus root, she pointed to the lotus root on the ground, and said to Yan Xiding: "Xiding, you go and wash the two sections of lotus root, wash it, I want to eat it, and Brother Da Yu will eat it too." ”
Yan Xi tilted his head: "If you want to eat, you wash it yourself, what do you tell me to do?" ”
Lan Shaofang raised her eyebrows and said in a low voice, "Huh? Do you wash it or not? ”
"Okay, okay, I'll wash, I'll wash the four sections, and we'll all eat." Yan Xi was really happy, turned his head and said to Lu Yu: "Brother Da Yu, if I don't look at you and like to eat raw lotus root, I won't wash it." ”
Lu Yu laughed and said, "Then I will accept your love, you wash two more sections, and let Xiaocai taste it." ”
Yan Xiding's cultivation now has a good foundation, and he is not afraid of the cold when he washes things with cold water. The kid washed very carefully, brushed the soil off the lotus root with a brush, cut the two ends of the lotus root, poured several bowls of water from one end of the lotus root, and the water flowed out from the other end along the lotus root hole.
The short lotus root section is white and fat, and it is very tender when it looks at it, Lu Yu picked up a section and took a bite first, and then said to Yan Xi'an: "It's delicious, you can taste it." ”
