stayed at the second sister's house until more than ten o'clock, and the second sister's parents-in-law and sister-in-law were about to come back, Han Mingxiu got up to leave, Han Mingyu wanted to stay here for lunch, Han Mingxiu didn't agree, the second sister's parents-in-law and sister-in-law were so snobbish that she didn't understand it, so she didn't want to stay and be looked down upon.

Han Mingyu also knew why her sister didn't agree, thinking about the face of her mother-in-law's family, she didn't insist anymore, and told her sister to be careful on the road, and after riding slowly, she sent her sister out of the door.

After leaving the second sister's house, it was not yet noon, and Uncle Gao and Aunt Gao definitely hadn't come back yet.

Han Mingxiu took the opportunity to go to a scrap yard, where he bought a few catties of old books to pass the time for Uncle Zhou and Manager Cui's children, and also bought two bags of bones, which he planned to process into bone meal and keep them for pigs.

The two pigs in the family are getting bigger and bigger, and they are getting more and more edible, and the crab shells and scallop shells that she has hoarded in her space have been eaten by them, and if they want to continue to grow fat, they have to feed them some nutritious, the food is nutritious, but it is not cost-effective to feed the food, so she chose to buy bones.

The price of bones is cheap, only a penny a catty, ground into powder and put in pig food, which can not only supplement calcium to pigs but also enhance pig immunity, and most importantly, make pigs fat, which is much more cost-effective than feeding bud rice!

Out of the acquisition station, Han Mingxiu found a place where no one was, put the two bags of bones into the space, and then set off to go to Uncle Gao's house.

When I arrived at Uncle Gao's house, Mrs. Gao was serving rice to the table, stewed sorghum rice, the dish was dried tofu rolled with green onions, and egg sauce.

"Ha, show that you came just in time, our family will improve the food today, come, let's eat together!" Uncle Gao warmly invited Han Mingxiu to have lunch with them.

Today is his wife's birthday, and he went to the grocery store to buy two pieces of dried tofu and five eggs to celebrate his wife's birthday, which is already a very luxurious and luxurious meal for them.

It just so happened that Han Mingxiu didn't eat lunch either, and when she saw that the food on the table was still to her taste, she readily agreed, she washed her hands, sat down at the table without seeing anything, and said with a smile, "Yo, what kind of day is this, and you bought dried tofu and egg sauce?" ”

I have known Uncle Gao and Aunt Gao for more than half a year, and she knows very well what kind of life they live, the old couple rarely even eats dry rice on weekdays, let alone buy dried tofu and eggs, which are 'luxuries', there must be something!

Mrs. Gao smiled and said, "It's not a big day, it's my birthday, your uncle has to buy these things, you see, this little thing suddenly harms a piece of money, it's a real loser!" ”

Although she complained about her wife's failure, she had a happy smile on her face.

As a woman, the greatest happiness in life is that her husband always cares about himself and loves himself forever!

Although their current situation is very bad, as long as there is this man who loves her and loves her, no matter how hard and difficult it is, she doesn't feel that she can survive!

When Han Mingxiu heard that Aunt Gao was celebrating her birthday, she smiled and said, "Oh, my aunt has a birthday today, I don't know yet, and I didn't bring you any good things, so I brought some green bud rice, yes, just take this green bud rice as a birthday gift!" ”

Last time, Uncle Gao said that he liked to eat green bud rice, and she said that she would continue to bring it to them, but Uncle Gao said that he didn't agree to anything, for fear that she would spoil the food.

Han Mingxiu was thinking about how to let them accept these buds without pressure, but it happened that he heard that Aunt Gao had a birthday, so it was just right to leave them some more green buds for this reason.

Gao Da Niang said, "Oh, you are taking the bud rice again, didn't the aunt tell you, the bud can continue to grow, what a pity you should break it now?" Why don't you keep it until it's full of grain? ”

Han Mingxiu said, "I've broken everything, and I've carried it back, you can't let me carry it back!" ”

Because she often walks around, Han Mingxiu is very close to Uncle Gao and Aunt Gao, and she doesn't see anything when she talks, hearing her such a stubborn statement, Uncle Gao and Aunt Gao also know that they can't excuse themselves, so they have to agree to accept her green bud rice!

This time, Han Mingxiu deliberately left more for them, and gave more than 30 ears at once, Aunt Gao was both happy and distressed, happy that they could get so many green buds at once, and distressed that Xiu had wasted the grain, which was extremely contradictory.

Uncle Gao also felt very sorry for Han Mingxiu's food, and said vigorously, "The two of us can't eat these, just leave us a ten ears and eight ears." ”

Han Mingxiu said, "If you can't eat it, cook it and hang it up, put it away after drying, and put it in the pot to cook it in the winter, it will still taste like tender bud rice, but it's delicious, or just wait for them to become old bud rice, and take it to grind it into bud rice stubble or bud rice face, anyway, I can't throw it away, such a heavy thing, I am so easy to carry it, but I don't want to carry it back." ”

The old couple accepted a large pile of green bud rice given by Han Mingxiu, and they were so moved that Han Mingxiu left after eating and getting new clothes.

This time it has only been more than a week since she last came to the county to distribute subsidized food, so she didn't plan to go to other people's houses anymore, went to the bath to take a bath, and after washing, changed into the new clothes made by Gao Da Niang, and rode home.

**

When he got home, it was already more than three o'clock in the afternoon, Han Mingxiu went into the house to drink some water, and after resting for a while, he came to the back garden with an axe, took out the two bags of bones in the space, and smashed them with a clang.

The bones were hard, and it was really hard work to smash them one by one, and before he was halfway through the smash, Han Mingxiu was already having a sore arm and sweating all over.

At this time, she couldn't help but think of what Niuniu's father said to her eldest sister-

"Teacher Han, I am working hard, if you have any hard work that you can't do, just come to me, and I will help you do it......"

The work of smashing bones is hard work, and it would be great if I could really ask him to help with this work!

Of course, she just thinks about it casually, entertaining herself, people just say it casually, she won't believe that she really let people help her smash her bones, her skin is not so thick.

That's it, she smashed it for a while, rested for a while, and smashed it again for a while, until the eldest sister came back from work, and the two bags of bones were smashed.

She swept up the smashed bones and put them in a silk bag, intending to go to the mill after dinner to grind the bones, and by the way, grind some bud rice noodles.

The quails at home are still small, and the bud rice particles are too big for them, and it is not easy to digest them, so it is most suitable for them to eat wild vegetables and bud rice noodles.

Now, the quails in the family are already familiar with the new home of the former garden, and they are all raised fat and round, Han Mingxiu's food is sufficient, and the livestock at home are better than those raised by other families, whether it is quails or chickens, ducks and geese, they are all raised with shiny hair.

In particular, the two pigs are like blowing air, rubbing for a long time, one day at a time, and they are a lot bigger than the pigs caught by other families at the same time.

Seeing that they all grew so well, Han Mingxiu raised them more energetically, after dinner, she pushed the cart and humped the smashed bones to grind the house to grind bone powder, after the bones of the two silk bags were smashed, a trace of the bag could be contained, and it was estimated that the powder would be filled with half a silk bag.

The mill is located in the west of the village, it is public, anyone can grind, but when grinding, it has to be grinded by hand, although there are livestock in the production team, but it is not casually given to the members, only when the production team beats the grain, it can be pulled and milled with livestock, and the ordinary members grind the grain by themselves, because the work of grinding requires a lot of strength, so the work of grinding grain is done by men, and Han Mingxiu's family has no man, so she had to come by herself.

In order to push the mill, she deliberately ate more at night, but when she arrived at the mill, she found that it was useless to eat more, because the bones were hard and difficult to grind, and the stone mill was heavy, even if her small body used the strength to feed, it could not be pushed at all.

It's embarrassing.

She sprinkled the broken bone ballast in the grinding trough, and if she couldn't push it, she had to sweep it out little by little, not to mention the trouble, the bone ballast that fell in the hole of the grinding disc could not be cleaned up, and when the next house came to grind, the bone meal would inevitably be mixed into other people's food, and it would be more than a diaphragm!

Han Mingxiu was so anxious that he turned to grind, thinking about who to ask for help?

is turning to grind, and the two people in the village are here.

They also came to grind rice, and when they saw Han Mingxiu's broken bones scattered in the grinding trough, Cheng Shun and his family were stunned.

"Girl, what are you doing here? Where are you making all these bones? Cheng Shun's daughter-in-law looked at Han Mingxiu as if she was mentally retarded.

Han Mingxiu said with a smile, "This is what I bought at the scrap yard in the city, I thought about crushing it and feeding the pigs, but I didn't expect that the bone was too hard and I couldn't grind it." ”

Cheng Shun's daughter-in-law said, "This thing can also feed pigs?" ”

"Yes." Han Mingxiu explained, "Pigs are omnivores, they eat everything, bones also eat, in fact, bones are very nutritious, they contain a lot of calcium and protein, which can promote the growth of animal bones, but also enhance their immunity, the most important thing is to eat and grow fat, is a more effective feed than food." ”

Cheng Shun's daughter-in-law heard her say the truth, and couldn't help but believe it a little, "Is it really so useful?" Who do you listen to? ”

Han Mingxiu couldn't say that she knew these things in her previous life, so she had to lie and say that she saw them in a book.

Cheng Shun's daughter-in-law still believes in science and books, and when she heard her say that she saw it in a book, she smashed her mouth and said, "Tsk, if it really works, we will also catch a pig to raise, by the way, how much do you buy this bone per catty?" ”

Han Mingxiu said, "It's very cheap, only a penny a pound, much cheaper than food, but it's a bit hard to smash bones and grind bones." ”

"It's really hard, this bone is hard, and men have to grind hard, not to mention you delicate little girl." Chengshun's daughter-in-law said honestly.

Han Mingxiu tugged at the corners of his mouth and said with a wry smile, "I'm still thinking that I can push it by eating two more bowls of rice, who knew that this grinding was so heavy, and I didn't move whether I was alive or dead." ”

Cheng Shun's daughter-in-law snorted and laughed, "You girl is really interesting, you want to come to grind after eating two more bowls of rice, this can do you, if you can grow so much strength by eating two more bowls of rice, what are people still raising livestock?" If you can eat two more bowls of rice and work by yourself, why bother with some old fodder to feed those animals? ”

After speaking, he said to her man, "Why don't you help Xiaoxiu grind this bone, she is a girl, and she really can't do this job."

Although Cheng Shun was not very happy, his daughter-in-law had spoken, and he had no choice but to agree.

Han Mingxiu rarely contacts the villagers on weekdays, and she is not very familiar with Chengshun, and now people can take the initiative to help her grind her bones, Han Mingxiu is very grateful, after all, this is a very physically demanding job, and it may not be possible to ask someone to help her, and she must get this favor.

Cheng Shun is a tall and strong man in the prime of life, don't look at Han Mingxiu's strength to eat, he can't push this grind, but as soon as it comes to others, the grinding disc turns away one by one.

Han Mingxiu took a small broom, swept up all the broken bones and slag that were sprinkled outside, and poured them back back, not willing to waste them at all.

With the help of Cheng Shun and his family, her bag of bones was finished in a short time.

Just as she expected, a bag of bone residue turned into a half-filament bag of bone meal.

After grinding the bone meal, Chengshun's daughter-in-law asked her man to help Han Mingxiu grind the bud rice particles of the most filthy bag into bud rice noodles.

It's not that they want to be good people to the end, but that the bone slag in this grinding disc has just been grinded, and Chengshun's daughter-in-law feels a little embarrassed, afraid that the remaining bone slag will be mixed into their family's grain, so she asked her man to help Han Mingxiu grind out the buds of her family.

In this way, after grinding most of Han Mingxiu's bag of bud rice particles, there is basically nothing left of the bone residue in the grinding disc, and the mixture is also mixed into her Han Mingxiu's rice, and she can grind her family's rice with confidence.

Han Mingxiu is such a smart person, of course she knows why Cheng Shun's daughter-in-law asked Cheng Shun to help her grind rice, but although they think about it for themselves, they can be regarded as helping her after all, so she is still very grateful to others.

After grinding the budding rice noodles, Han Mingxiu said, "Brother Chengshun, sister-in-law, thank you so much today, or I will leave some bone meal for you to keep and feed the livestock, this thing works, the livestock have eaten the rubbing fat ......"

Cheng Shun's daughter-in-law just heard Han Mingxiu say that this bone meal contains protein and calcium, and the livestock is still fat after eating, so she was a little tempted, and just wanted to keep a little, but Cheng Shun spoke.

"It's all a camp, it's not a big deal to help you do some work, how can I ask for your things, you can easily come back from the county town, keep it for yourself."

Cheng Shun's daughter-in-law was embarrassed to ask for it when she heard her man say this, so she waved her hand and said, "Don't do it, it's not easy for you to live by your own family, take it back, by the way, can you take it alone?" Do you need me to send you......"

"No, I'm coming by bike, just use the cart to carry it......"

Han Mingxiu saw that these two people didn't want it, so he thanked them again, and then went home with food and bone meal.

"Hey Shunzi, do you think that bone meal can really be that useful?" After Han Mingxiu left, Chengshun's daughter-in-law asked her curiously about the man.

Cheng Shun said, "I don't know wow, if you want to know what's going on, don't you know if you go to their house and see it." ”

"That's right, I'll go to her house and see the animals she raises, won't I know everything?" Cheng Shun's daughter-in-law slapped her thigh, and she didn't care about her man, so she went to Han Mingxiu's house with a pink face.

Here, Han Mingxiu had just arrived home with his front foot, and as soon as he put the bud rice noodles and bone meal away, Chengshun's daughter-in-law chased after him.

"Hehe, Xiu, I want to see your pig, okay?"

To be honest, Han Mingxiu's method of raising livestock with bone meal has somewhat impressed Chengshun's daughter-in-law, the price of bud rice noodles has now risen to eight cents a catty, and bone meal is only a penny a catty, if feeding bone meal can really catch up with the effect of feeding food, wouldn't it save a lot of money by raising livestock with bone meal!

"Okay, sister-in-law, come with me."

As soon as they helped her, of course Han Mingxiu would not refuse this small request, and immediately took Chengshun's daughter-in-law to the back garden to see her pigs.

When she arrived at the back garden, Chengshun's daughter-in-law saw the sweet potatoes and chickens, ducks and geese all over the garden at a glance, and she could only see it from the gate of the garden, and she couldn't see it from the outside wall, because the garden was surrounded by sunflowers and sweet stalks, and these tall crops blocked the scene in the garden tightly, and outsiders couldn't see the inside at all.
