At night, the two of them slept outside, burning a hot kang, covered with soft futon, and being completely wrapped in it, warm and reassuring.

Ming Dai listened to Aunt Huang's words, deliberately put two more basins of water in their respective rooms, and when she got up the next morning, her nose was not dry or astringent.

When I woke up early in the morning, it was even colder outside, and the water in the vat was frozen.

Zhou Sinian smashed the ice cubes, scooped them into the pot, put the grate, took the bud rice flour cakes and vegetable dumplings in the cupboard, thought about it, and took a handful of sugar-fried chestnuts and put them in.

Set up the fire, and he went to wash.

By the time Mingdai came out, breakfast was already warm.

Ming Dai gave him a thumbs up, and Zhou Sinian smiled happily.

After brewing two servings of fried noodles, I quickly finished breakfast with cold mustard shreds.

Zhou Sinian carefully wrapped the hot sugar-fried chestnuts, put them on his chest, patted them, and after being satisfied, he pulled Ming Dai out and walked towards the Wild Boar Ridge.

The winter morning is exceptionally cold, except for those who get up early to cook and carry water, they are basically still lying in the bed, enjoying the rare comfortable time of the year.

Zhou Sinian put on a military coat he had received before, and insisted on wearing his red turban, nondescript, spicy Mingdai didn't want to look at him.

But he was very satisfied, he must look in the mirror before going out, and he also pouted Mingdai, wanting to take out the half-length mirror in the bathroom and use it, disgusted that the outside mirror was too small.

Ming Dai didn't dare to imagine how he would face himself during this time after he recovered.

You'll want to get sick again, right?

When passing by the well platform at the entrance of the village, I met several villagers wearing large cotton jackets carrying water.

Looking at the tall figure and the iconic red bandana that pulled the cart through quickly, one of them couldn't help but sigh.

"In this world, madmen all wear brand-new military coats, and we are still wearing torn cotton jackets handed down by our fathers, who are we going to reason with?"

The other man then sang, "Oh, my fate!" ”

It made everyone laugh, the flat shoulder on the shoulder shook, the water splash in the bucket followed, wetting the well platform, and quickly froze.

At the foot of the mountain, the road is not easy to walk, and the mountain is covered with snow.

The two simply parked the car here and walked up.

It was Zhou Sinian who walked up, but Ming Dai was still caught by him and used his military coat to block the wind.

The two of them took four sacks, found a sunny wood, and pulled the snow off the ground, revealing the frozen humus.

Fortunately, Aunt Huang reminded them yesterday that they brought an iron pickaxe, otherwise the shovel would really not be able to dig.

Once the top is pried open, the soil underneath is easy to dig.

Zhou Sinian shoveled, Ming Dai opened the sack, the two cooperated tacitly, and after a while, four sacks were filled.

Mingdai tucked the sack into the space.

After putting it away, I walked around the mountain, collected all the branches that were crushed by the snow in the vicinity, and accidentally found a golden rooster independent pheasant, which had been frozen into an ice sculpture and brought it with me.

In the end, when the two left, they dragged the boss down the mountain with a branch.

Taking advantage of the fact that there was no one around, he put the sack on the car, fixed the branches, and brought them back together.

When the two pulled the cart back to the village, they happened to run into Liu Dazhu.

Seeing him, Ming Dai hurriedly beckoned Zhou Sinian to stop: "Uncle, where are you going early in the morning?" ”

Liu Dazhu hid his sleeves with his hands crossed, and was also surprised when he watched the two of them pull a cart of things: "I came back from your Uncle Dazheng's house and brought him breakfast, as well as boiled medicine, what are you?" ”

Mingdai pointed to the sack: "Go to the mountains to dig some soil, just came back." ”

Liu Dazhu remembered what the old woman said, Xiao Mingzhiqing wanted to grow vegetables in winter.

I didn't expect the two of them to do it?

He encouraged with a smile: "Plant well, if it is really planted, I will apply for it, and the village will also plant it, and when the time comes, it will be sent to the county's acquisition station, and we will be able to earn more income, and we will pay off the village's foreign debts as soon as possible."

In the end, she is the leader, she hasn't succeeded yet, and the captain has sent the task.

"I don't know if I can grow it, but if it does, I'll pick a handful for my uncle to taste first."

Liu Dazhu laughed, in a good mood: "Okay! I'm waiting! ”

Before Zhou Sinian got impatient, Ming Dai said hello and left.

Looking at the back of the two leaving, Liu Dazhu sighed, his three mallets are not worth one of other people's little Ming Zhiqing, how good it would be if this was his daughter!

When they got home, the two broke the branches and put them outside, brought the sacks into the space, poured them in the yard, spread them out, and smashed all the clumps to let the sun shine well.

Coming out of the space, Ming Dai beckoned Zhou Sinian, dismantled a few tattered shelves in the kitchen, and reordered a few grids with wooden boards, so that the baskets could be placed on them.

In the afternoon, the soil was almost dry.

Ming Dai took out the bamboo basket, spread a layer of straw underneath, then put the dried soil in it, filled most of the bamboo basket, dug a pit, buried the leek roots that had grown new roots, and watered them to fix it.

Six baskets of large and small leeks were planted, and Ming Dai planned to make leeks in three baskets and leeks in three baskets.

In the remaining baskets, Ming Dai planted baby greens, spinach and garlic sprouts.

Several large baskets were also stocked with soybean sprouts and mung bean sprouts.

All the vegetables were piled up in the pantry, and the basket of bean sprouts was placed on her kang.

After thinking about it, she took out a few catties of wheat, soaked it, poured it into a large drying basket and spread it evenly, covered it with a white cloth, put it on Zhou Sinian's kang, and told him not to touch the ground.

The storage room is very small, and after the things are cleared out, it is just right to put these things in it, and the temperature will rise well.

Ming Dai took out all the charcoal she had saved after going to the countryside, put it in the middle of the storage room, took the unused basin and set up a charcoal basin, put charcoal on it and burned it, and soon, the temperature of the whole room rose.

This year, for the time being, if possible, a special fire wall will need to be built, so that vegetables can be grown on a large scale.

Two days later, the two of them found all the buds left behind by rubbing the buds.

The two of them smashed all the buds for a day, smashed all the buds, made them into powder as much as possible, and then mixed them with some potassium permanganate.

There happened to be this Ming Dai's small medicine box, and Director Gao gave her a lot of this kind of anti-inflammatory and sterilizing medicine.

Add some wheat bran, stir well, add water, keep the powder at 60% humidity, and form a cylinder.

When Ming Dai and Zhou Sinian were looking for medicinal herbs on the mountain, they collected a lot of dead trees full of mushrooms by the way, and now they are all placed in the grove in the space.

She took out a dead tree full of oyster mushrooms, removed the mycelium, buried it in the wet material made from the buds, planted all the surrounding areas, and placed it on the wooden shelf in the storeroom.

Ming Dai used to spray water regularly, and after a few days, small mushrooms emerged from the wet material.

Zhou Sinian has a kind of awe for food beyond ordinary people, whether it is the vegetable field in the space or the vegetable planting basket outside the space, most of them are taken care of by him.

As long as he is outside, he will go into the storage room to change the charcoal at the end of the day, and Ming Dai doesn't have to set the alarm clock.

Even in the middle of the night, he was able to get up and change the charcoal or light the fire.

This also caused their firewood to be consumed very quickly, but fortunately, there were a few heavy snowfalls later, and many branches on the mountain were crushed.

When the weather was good, the two went up the mountain to collect firewood, and the others also went, mostly to see if there were any pheasants that had been frozen to death, but unfortunately there was very little harvest.

Seeing that Zhou Sinian was so well-behaved, Ming Dai planned to make something delicious to reward him.
