Chapter 70: Digging a trench
Su Muyao popularized it with the people in the family again, like this kind of fried chestnuts must be slightly cooled before they can be eaten, otherwise it will explode.
After all, not every chestnut has ever been crossed, and some are too small, so they are just thrown in and fried.
A large plate of chestnuts was stir-fried and placed on the table in the hall, and the family gathered around the table to taste what the fresh food tasted like.
It wasn't until it was almost cold that each person took one and ate to their contentment.
"It's amazing, it's delicious."
A few radish heads on the side only nodded, "This is the best I have ever tasted."
Su Xibao looked at his younger brother and said, "Every time you eat something delicious, you say it's the best thing you've ever eaten."
It was not yet time to eat, and the children grabbed a handful, put it in their pockets, and ran out to play wildly.
"I'm coming back for dinner in a few hours, don't forget"
"Grandma, we'll have something to eat later."
Mrs. Su looked at her youngest grandson and fell into deep thought.
How? The other grandsons are all smart and clever, why is this youngest so naïve?
"You can eat enough chestnuts, you must be eating."
Old man Su also said on the side, "This thing can be eaten as a snack, and children still have to eat well." ”
Su Mingxuan nodded desperately, but the action of putting chestnuts in his clothes pocket was much faster.
As soon as Su Muyao and her brother Su Mingxuan came to the big tree at the entrance of the village, they saw a group of friends surrounding the wolf cubs next to them.
"He's obviously a wolf."
"But he is very similar to my family's Wangcai, how can he be like Wangcai?"
"Sister Fuxing has said that this is a wolf is a wolf cub, and it is the wolf king's cub, not your family's prosperity."
"I didn't say he was my family's wealth."
The little wolf cub saw his little master come and ran in the direction where his little master came.
"Woo woo woo" little master, these little cubs are really cute.
Su Muyao peeled the chestnuts in her pocket and threw the flesh inside to the little wolf cub.
"Try your owner's newly made sugar-fried chestnuts".
The wolf cub opened its mouth wide and bit down on the chestnut that had been thrown over.
Before he chewed twice, he swallowed it, and before he felt that he had tasted it, he arched his big head over his little master's thigh.
"I haven't tasted it yet, so I'll give you another one."
"Oh no, you can't eat too much of this."
Seeing the wolf cub's aggrieved hammer head and brain, Su Muyao didn't care anymore.
Keeping up with Su Mingxuan's pace, he came to the crowd.
When Xiaopang saw Su Mingxuan coming, the most important thing was to put something in his mouth with something in his hand.
Immediately, his saliva flowed, "Mingxuan, what are you eating?" ”
Su Mingxuan was also generous to see his good friend, and the big fat hurriedly handed it over.
"Try it, this is a new snack my sister made for me, it's delicious."
I saw Da Fat put the whole chestnut in his mouth, and his eyes widened instantly.
This is really the best thing he has ever tasted, sweet, and the meat inside is soft and glutinous.
Eat the flesh inside, and finally lick the skin on the surface and lick it again.
"Mingxuan, can you give me another one? This one is delicious."
"You can taste it."
Xiaopang watched Su Mingxuan peel off the sugar-fried chestnuts and throw the skin out, only eating the flesh inside, and suddenly felt violent.
"Mingxuan, then you give me this skin that you don't eat and let me lick it, okay?"
The other children on the side were drooling, and their eyes looked directly at the sugar-fried chestnuts in Su Mingxuan's pocket.
Su Muyao looked at the appearance of these radish heads and covered her eyes.
Stay away from this group of friends directly, it's really unsightly.
Su Mingxuan was also generous, and gave one to each little friend, but these children licked and licked the skin of the sugar-fried chestnuts.
After all, it's still poor.
There are also some children who have just come out of the house, and they are also holding boiled chestnuts in their hands, and they are eating sweetly one by one.
The rest of the children asked clearly, it turned out that they had cooked at home, and they all ran home desperately regardless of whether they had it or not.
Some of the children don't have chestnuts at home, and those who don't get chestnuts from the mountains at home are basically sprinkled at home and eaten.
Zhao Tiedan raised his chin and came to the crowd to show off with a bowl of chestnuts cooked by his grandmother in his hand.
"See, this is my milk cooked for me, my milk is the best (●°U°●)."
Su Mingxuan didn't deal with Zhao Tiedan, "You are talking nonsense, my grandmother is the best to make (●°U°●)"
The little fat on the side also nodded, "The chestnuts made by Grandma Mingxuan are delicious."
Zhao Tiedan was instantly unhappy, "Su Mingxuan, I want to taste what your grandmother made."
"I'll taste it for you," he said, handing one out of his pocket.
After Zhao Tiedan finished eating this chestnut, he only felt that the chestnuts in his bowl were not fragrant in an instant.
Immediately after that, I made a whoast and walked home with the chestnuts in the bowl.
After going back, he vigorously argued that his grandmother wanted to make chestnuts with the same taste as Su Mingxuan's grandmother, but he was beaten up after all.
A large group of children at the entrance of the village, you taste my family, I taste your family, basically swallow it in one bite.
But everyone unanimously felt that Su Mingxuan's grandmother was the most delicious, and no one could compare.
It hadn't rained for months now, and the leaves in those fields were all starting to turn yellow.
Even the land at the door was all cracked, and Su Muyao only felt a headache when she looked at this.
Although there is a lot of water in your own space, it is not a matter if you want it to go on like this.
Now only her family and the village chief's house have a well in the whole village.
Looks like we'll have to figure it out.
I came to my grandmother's room and told me what I thought.
"Boy, you mean to dig a trench, but how long does it take?"
Old man Su thought very simply, this is to dig a ditch, to be enough for the whole village to use, not only is it a matter of drinking water, but also the rice of the village also needs water.
Seeing that the crops were about to die before the harvest arrived, the people in the village were also sad, no, today they found edible food on the mountain, and everyone was eager to pull it desperately to their homes.
"Grandpa, if there are one or two people, they will definitely not be able to dig it, but there are so many laborers in our village, and it won't be long before they all work together."
Old man Su thought about it, it was indeed as his little granddaughter said.
The sun began to sink in the west, and Old Man Su hurried to the village chief's house.
After discussing with the old village chief, he happily went home, but before he was happy for a while, he heard about the big events that happened in the village.
Now every family still has food, and no matter how poor it is, there is still money.
It is impossible to fall to the point where someone is going to starve to death.
