Chapter 80: People Are Forced
When Hao Jiali was disappointed in the loaches in the paddy field, Hao Jiali turned around and figured out how to cut the snails with fish candy in the cold wind and frosty weather.
Hao Jiali said that she racked her brains for life and life at that time, hollowed out her mind, searched her intestines and scraped her stomach, and tried her best to find a way.
Now Hao Jiali often laughs dumbly at these methods that she came up with at that time, at a young age.
"People are forced out, and the solution is to come up with it." Hao Jiali has taken these two sentences as her motto since this time, and has been rolling and crawling in the mall until now.
Hao Jiali still clearly remembers that she scooped the mud and loaches out of the mud puddle with a water scoop and poured them into the bucket, and then saw that the loaches could not climb out of the bucket.
Aunt Lan lives next door to Cao Juying, and before dawn, Aunt Lan soaked the soybeans she bought at home in water, and when the beans were soft and the bean skin fell off, Aunt Lan grinded the bean skin and the appropriate amount of water into soybean milk with a stone mill.
Hao Jiali saw that Aunt Lan set up a tic-tac-toe wooden shelf on the wooden barrel, and a dustpan was placed on the shelf, and a large cotton cloth was spread in the basket, and Aunt Lan scooped a spoonful of soy milk and poured it on the cotton cloth, Hao Jiali saw that the bean dregs were precipitated on the cotton cloth of the basket, and the soybean milk flowed into the big wooden barrel.
Then, Hao Jiali saw Aunt Lan mix the soybean milk in the wooden barrel with several buckets of boiling water, and then sprinkled a pound of beans with the weight of gypsum under the wooden barrel, and then reconciled evenly, and after the harmony, Aunt Lan covered the wooden barrel with a lid and waited for the soybean milk to condense.
As soon as the soybean milk condensed, Aunt Lan called it tofu cake, also called tofu flower, Aunt Lan scooped these tofu flowers into several square tofu boxes prepared in advance, covered with cloth, covered with a box lid, and then pressed a few red bricks or big stones on top of the box.
In the next two days, it will be three days at most, and the tofu cubes will be pressed into shape in the tofu box.
In addition, the sweet potato flour crushed by the villagers in Hao Jiali's hometown with a rice mill is also packed in such large wooden barrels.
It's just that after the sweet potatoes are crushed by the rice mill and filtered out, the sweet potato flour will be precipitated directly in the wooden barrel from half a bucket of turbid water, until the powder forms a thick layer at the bottom of the barrel, and the water between the barrel and the bucket is so clear that you can look in the mirror, and the villagers will pour the water, dig out the powder from the bottom of the bucket, and put it on the roof one by one.
Whether it's tofu or sweet potato flour, these two prove that the wooden round barrel water is not leaky.
With this discovery, Hao Jiali was really excited like the explorer who discovered the new continent written in the book, Hao Jiali immediately went to the carpenter on the production team to use the money from selling loaches in the past few days, according to the style of Aunt Lan's wooden barrel to make an exact one, and by the way, she also made a long clamp shaped like a briquette that can enter the water and clamp a snail, the difference is that the end of the clip is not pointed but round, and the inside is hollow.
After doing these two things, Hao Jiali and her younger brother carried the wooden barrel to the fish pond of the production team, scooped water from the fish pond and poured it into the wooden barrel, and then repeatedly tried whether the wooden barrel leaked or not, and saw that there was no water leakage, Hao Jiali decided to stand in the wooden barrel and go down to the fish pond to pick the snails.
When Hao Jiali hung the wooden barrel into the fish pond with a rope, the wooden barrel floated on the surface of the water and tilted, fortunately, the wooden barrel was tilted and did not enter the water of the fish pond into the bucket, nor did it enter the water, the water has buoyancy, which Hao Jiali has long been accustomed to seeing the water state of the bucket when she was carrying water in the well and hitting the water well.
After Hao Jiali waited for the wooden barrel to float on the surface of the fish pond, she inserted the bamboo clamp into the wooden barrel, and then erected the wooden barrel smoothly on the water surface near the shore of the fish pond.
When Hao Jiali jumped into the wooden barrel, due to uneven force, the wooden barrel could not be balanced in the water, and the wooden barrel almost overturned Hao Jiali in the water of the fish pond in the winter, Hao Jiali quickly grabbed the aquatic plants on the shore of the fish pond.
After grasping the aquatic weeds, Hao Jiali hurriedly tied the head of the brown rope with countless loops around her waist in advance and asked her younger brother Hao Jiaming to tie it to the big tree pole on the bank of the fish pond.
Then Hao Jiali dragged the rope with one hand and the edge of the wooden barrel with the other hand and floated freely on the surface of the fish pond.
Every time she drifts to a place, Hao Jiali sinks the bamboo clamp into the bottom of the water and clamps the snails, one afternoon, Hao Jiali can clip a bucket of snails at the bottom of the fish pond, and when Hao Jiali goes ashore from the fish pond, Hao Jiaming looks at the wooden barrel where her sister is standing, Hao Jiaming's eyes can't even see the instep and toes of her sister, and the two are all buried in the bottom of the wooden barrel by the snails.
This is really a twist and turn, Hao Jiali has thought of the way to deal with the cold water in the fish pond in the winter and the way to deal with the mud in the paddy field.
Moreover, picking snails and catching loaches are also at Hao Jiali's choice every afternoon.
Successively, the money in the family's money jar has saved a lot of money in addition to daily expenses in the past few days.
Hao Jiali thought that she could take a breath after more than a year of supporting her family, but Hao Jiali did not expect that at this time, the secretary of the commune Fang spent a full twenty days of family leave and returned from the city with her grandfather Chen Zhanjun.
Secretary Fang and Chen Zhanjun brought back the news of Hao Jiali's father from the city.
This news made Hao Jiali overjoyed and worried at the same time.
As soon as Secretary Fang came back, everyone, including Hao Jiali, knew that Hao Jiali's father, Hao Guang, had been discredited by Chen Feng's quarrel in the original coal mining unit, and the affairs of these two people were discussed by Hao Jiali's father, a colleague in the mining area, as a joke after tea and dinner every day.
It doesn't matter if these things are concerned, Hao Jiali's father can just blow the wind in his ears.
The key is that Hao Jiali's father can't face the blow of losing his sweetheart every day.
Listening to the narration of Secretary Fang and Chen Zhanjun, Hao Jiali's father borrowed wine to kill his sorrows every day after work, and got drunk.
Especially since the last quarrel with Chen Feng, Hao Jiali's father's dear woman casually found a man to marry.
You said that if you get married, you will get married, but this woman was angry and broke off the relationship with Hao Jiali's father, after this woman got married, she found that she couldn't forget Hao Jiali's father at all, every day this woman and her husband are living in Cao Ying's heart in Han, and the two from the day they got married, this woman began to pick her husband not to quarrel with her husband, her husband began to endure, and in the end, like Hao Jiali's parents, the two of them tore and scuffled and scolded the woman:" You don't give you a face, you don't have a face, I didn't care about your affair before marriage, you're good, I don't like it everywhere, I tell you, if it weren't for the fact that you still look a little good, my fucking department store has a lot of new shoes, I don't need to wear old shoes worn by other men! Broken shoes! ”
The woman was so angry that she was so angry that she was smoking, and then she ran to Hao Jiali's father and cried, saying that she shouldn't be so impulsive, she should have listened to Hao Jiali's father's explanation, and then waited for Hao Jiali's parents to divorce and then be with Hao Jiali's father, unlike now that she is not innocent, and second, she and her own husband are living like years, the woman regrets it, feels sorry for Hao Jiali's father, and asks Hao Jiali's father if he still dislikes her, if he doesn't dislike her, She immediately divorced her husband, and then lived with Hao Jiali's father.
Hao Jiali's father would still dislike the person he loved, he could regain his old goodness, and immediately hugged this person he missed every day like glue and could no longer be separated.
