Chapter 0403: The First Snow in October
While the farmer is harvesting the wheat, he pulls the straw to his house.
Wheat straw is used as a material for keeping warm in winter, for example, for pigsty.
Just cover the straw on the pigsty and you're ready to spend the winter.
In winter, the pigsty also needs some wheat straw as a quilt.
Therefore, many pig farmers will pull back to pad the pigs.
The second role is to be used as fuel.
Cooking at home, wheat straw is very good to burn.
Some families collect wheat straw in the autumn and use it until the autumn of the following year.
In some fields, there is too much wheat straw to pull it all, so they will give it away.
There was really no one to ask for it, so they lit a fire and burned it directly in the field.
In the past few days of the wheat harvest, the sky is often full of smoke and dust.
Some of them are caused by the dust stirred up by the harvester, and some of them are caused by "burning".
The wheat harvest lasted until after the National Day.
It's already frost now.
Frost will fall in the morning and evening.
The bean harvest is about to start again.
Taking advantage of the frost, the pods softened, and the soybeans were harvested with a harvester.
Soybeans generally receive the first snow when it falls.
By this time, the soybean harvest was basically finished.
On this day, Lu Changhua braved the breeze and sent his daughter and Hu Le to kindergarten.
As soon as the child was sent in, the sky was sporadically covered with ice ballast.
When he walked home, the sparse snow drifted down.
"Mom and Dad, it's snowing."
The father was packing up the fishing gear, and when he heard his son say that it was snowing, he sighed.
"Well, it looks like we're going to end it."
"Alright, you've been fishing all summer, it's time to rest."
Mom came out of the East House and said.
"Dad, it's cold, so don't fish."
"Then don't fish."
Old Lu carried the fishing gear into the barn.
"Dad, it's snowing, it's time to stew the goose, you can call these old men to eat the goose."
When Lao Lu heard this, his eyes lit up.
"Yes, it's winter, stew goose in an iron pot, drink some wine, and be strong!"
"You old man drink, you make it yourself, I made an appointment with Aunt Hu and them to play mahjong."
"Yes, you're all busy, I'm idle."
"What are you idle? Look at the kids! ”
After Lu's mother instructed, she picked it up and went out.
Lu Changhua picked up the phone and called Erhong.
"Erhong, catch two big geese."
"Okay, one, one, ...... in a minute"
Lu Changhua said yes and hung up.
He called his wife again.
"Wang Yao, don't you come to stew goose in an iron pot today?"
"What's going on today?"
"It's snowing in our house, it's okay to be idle, stew two geese to eat."
"Okay, I'll come in the afternoon after I'm done."
"You ask if Dagui eats? Come back if you want to eat. ”
"Do you need to ask him? He had to run when he smelled it. ”
"You ask."
After hanging up the phone, Lu Changhua took out a basket of potatoes from the vegetable cellar, and he slowly peeled them himself.
For more than half an hour, Er Hong came with two geese.
Lu Changhua began the process of killing geese skillfully.
It's easy to kill a goose, but it's hard to get rid of goose feathers.
In order to save trouble, you have to scald the goose feathers with boiling water.
Then pluck out these wet goose feathers.
Go to the goose feathers to disembowel and take out the contents of the stomach.
If you are careful, you can get out the internal organs and intestines and put them in the pot together.
Some people don't want to have intestines if they are troublesome.
Lu Changhua was plucking the hair roots one by one with tweezers, and there was a cry in the west house.
Sheng Yu woke up.
He washed his hands and hurried to see it.
Xiao Shengyu sat in the quilt and watched his father come in with a confused expression.
He wiped away his tears and reached out for a hug.
Lu Changhua picked up his son.
"Sheng Yu, it's snowing outside, look."
He carried his son to the window.
Outside the window, the snow fluttered, and the ground was paved with a layer of white.
"Whoa, whoa, it's snowing."
This kid was extremely excited, and he was about to go down from Lu Changhua's arm.
"Hey, hey, no, get dressed before you go out."
Although he was extremely reluctant, he still couldn't twist his father's thigh.
When Lu Changhua put on his clothes and pants for him, the kid jumped out and ran out.
Xiong Bao was also infected by him.
This guy is coming out of the fish.
Follow the little baby running back and forth in the yard.
Deeper and deeper footprints were left in the yard.
Two big geese, Lu Changhua was busy until noon and didn't pluck out the goose feathers.
Daddy is finally back.
He was followed by a large group of people.
"Yo, where is Changhua getting a goose?"
"Uncle, you are asking knowingly, I've been picking up all morning, how many of you are done playing?"
"Ahem. How do you speak?! ”
Old Lu coughed.
Wang Dejiang said: "I'm afraid that you won't be able to finish it alone, so don't you come over to help." ”
"Yes, Dad, thank you for your hard work."
Director Han said happily: "I was going to go fishing today, but it's snowing." ”
"It's not good, oops, you said, there was a big black fish yesterday, and I was stunned to let it run away, and I was going to compete with it today."
"Hey, I'm still delaying your fishing?"
"Yes, anyway, Dagui will come back in a while, and our brothers will eat by ourselves."
Lu Changhua is used to joking with these old men.
These old guys aren't angry either.
The old beard put his hand into his sleeve, hehe Zhile.
"Dagui is back? That's great, just right, Hu Le has no one to care about now, let him take it away. ”
"Uncle Hu, what you said is not right! Your Hu Le has grown up here, and you still say that no one cares? ”
"Yes, I can prove this, what you said is not right. I think it's good to just change the name of Hu Le, just call it Lu Le, it's good! ”
The old director teased.
"Hey, hey, that's not going to work! Our family Hu Le must have the surname Hu. ”
The old beard was taken aback by the old director's words.
"Yo, you still know Hu Le's surname Hu, if your grandson doesn't want it, give it to me."
Lao Lu also teased.
A group of old men giggled and joked.
The hands are not idle, and the two geese are quickly plucked out!
Lao Lu carried the goose to the kitchen, and Lu Changhua did it.
There was a clattering chopping, and the goose was decomposed.
Green onion and ginger ingredients are also prepared.
Lu Changhua ran out and came in with a handful of bean stalks, stuffed them into the stove pit and lit a fire.
The bean stalks burned, crackled, and the iron pot soon rose with green smoke.
"Dad, I'll fry it, you go to the living room to play, the smoke is too big, be careful of your lungs."
Old Lu is also welcome.
Untie your apron and put it on the shelf.
Lu Changhua added a handful of soybean straw and poured soybean oil into the pot.
It doesn't take much effort, and the fumes are swirling.
Slide the green onion and ginger into the pan.
Soybean straw was added.
The pot crackled and burst with fragrance.
Seeing that the heat was almost up, the two pots of goose meat were poured into the pot.
The sizzling stir-fry, and soon the goose meat was cut off, and the fragrance was stir-fried.
Add water.
A large pot full of goose meat, with oil flowers floating on the soup noodles.
He covered the pot and increased the amount of bean straw.
The flames at the bottom of the pot are licked around.
The pot was sizzling, and the four edges of the lid were steaming.
Just when Lu Changhua was busy stewing the goose, he heard his mother push the door and walk in.
While walking, he muttered: "Look at you, covered in snow." If you want to play, you have fun, what are you doing rolling in the snow? Look at your clothes, they're all buried! ”
Lu Changhua looked up and saw his mother walking in with Sheng Yu in her arms.
He also slapped the child's clothes.
Snow chips fell from Sheng Yu's body in a flutter.
"What's going on?"
"What's going on?! Your son is wallowing on the ground! ”
Tsk, tsk, tsk.
The kid writhed in his grandmother's arms, with the intention of coming down.
Lu Changhua slapped his son's ass.
"Wow Wow Wow~"
Xiao Shengyu grinned and cried.
"You are rolling on the ground, who will wash your clothes? Yes? After a while, you washed your dirty clothes for today, do you hear?! ”
This kid is so naughty, no wonder Lu Changhua was angry when he saw his son, this kid is really not worry-free!
"Why are you still here? What time is it? Glutinous rice is getting out of school. ”
Lu's mother hurriedly asked her son to pick up the child, if he was here, her grandson would suffer.
Lu's mother hugged her grandson and started to light the fire.
Lu Changhua glared at his son, took off his apron, and went to kindergarten.
Xiao Nuomi and Hu Le jumped home and met Lu Changhua halfway.
"Daddy, Daddy, it's snowing!"
"Pretty, isn't it?"
"Hmm."
"Second uncle, second uncle, today I am very well-behaved, not naughty."
"Really? That's great, I'll reward you two for eating goose meat today, okay? ”
"Yes, yes!"
Xiao Hu Le clapped his hands happily.
"There's good news, do you want to know?"
"What's the news?"
"Your dad is coming back?"
"Huh?!"
Hu Le was stunned when he heard this, and then his little face collapsed.
"What's the matter? Aren't you happy your dad is back? ”
“……”
The kid bowed his head and didn't squeak.
"I know, I know."
Xiao Nuomi took the initiative to solve the mystery.
"Why?"
"Uncle Hu beat him last time."
"Why?"
Xiao Nuomi shook her head, indicating that she didn't know either.
Xiao Hu Le looked at Lu Changhua with an aggrieved expression.
"Second uncle, am I not born to my parents?"
"Huh? Why do you say that? ”
"Mom and dad rarely come back to see me......"
I'll go.
Lu Changhua's heart trembled.
The child had this idea.
Looks like it's my own problem.
Hu Dagui and his wife are not together, it is really not good.
If you can't see your child a few times a year, can a child have such thoughts?
I had to figure out a way to keep them apart.
