Going through ancient farming to engage in infrastructure construction

Yao Xiaoqing and Yuzi arrived at the taro field, and the crystal clear raindrops swayed on the taro leaves. When a gust of wind blew, the raindrops fell like pearls with broken strings.

Yao Xiaoqing commanded Taro and the others to pick up the well-growing taro stalks and cut off the outer few taro stalks.Looking down, you can see that around each taro plant, many taro seeds have emerged from the soil.

The taro that Shan Amu and the others recovered should be of the same species as the later generation's taro.In the land that was developed, taro was planted the most, and those taro that were brought back before and after were picked out and planted for four or five mu.

Ah Chong and Ah Shui follow the planting methods taught by Yao Xiaoqing, and they come to take care of and fertilize when they have time, and there is not even a weed in the field.

It didn't take long for the few people to fill up the backpack they brought.Yao Xiaoqing went to the vegetable field and pumpkin field again, but found no place with stagnant water, so he took a few people back with baskets on their backs.

Yao Xiaoqing went back to the mountain and saw that Shan'am and the others had washed the fish and vegetables and hung them on the fence to dry.

Shan Amu said to Yao Xiaoqing: "Xiaoqing, the sky is fine, let's go out and have a look, we brought yams, we won't come back for lunch."

Yao Xiaoqing nodded, "Okay! There must be a lot of water, so be careful when you go to the river."

"Hey!" Several people left with their backpacks on their backs, and even Yaya and A Sen also ran away.

Hua looked at the taro stalks piled on the ground, and knew that Yao Xiaoqing was going to cook something fresh again.

"Xiaoqing, what should I do with the taro sticks?"

Yao Xiaoqing took a wooden stool and sat down, "I'll teach you."

The two men removed the head and tail of the taro stalks, tore off the outer layer of fibers, washed them, divided them into half, and strung them with thin rattan sticks to dry.

Put all the others in boiling water and cook for a few seconds. Take out the blanched taro stems, wash them in clean water, and soak them for an hour.

Pick it up and drain it, the taro stalks will become soft, then hang them on the bamboo poles to dry, dry them and store them, if you want to eat, take them out and soak them in warm water, then you can fry pickles and eat them.

Those taro stalks that are air-dried are cut into small pieces after they are half-dried, put into jars, put a layer of taro stalks, put a layer of salt, and thicken layer by layer.

After the taro sticks were installed, I found a stone, washed it and pressed it on the taro sticks. After a few days, it was ready to eat.

The two of them worked in the yard for a long time before they finished all the taro sticks.

Hua smiled and said to her, "Xiaoqing, I think what you cook are two ways to eat, what's the taste?"

"The ones in the jar are pickled sour taro stalks, and the ones that are boiled and dried are dried vegetables." Yao Xiaoqing replied.

"There are so many taro stalks below, we all pick them up and make them into dried vegetables and sauerkraut, which can last for a long time."

"Well! I made them all, and there are quite a few." After I was free, I realized that my hands were itchy, and Yao Xiaoqing said to Hua, "Come with me."

The two walked to the earthen stove, and Yao Xiaoqing took down the jar from the stove eye, stretched out his hand, and roasted it on the fire for a while, and his hands stopped itching.

Hua touched her dry hand and laughed, "Xiaoqing, you have so many ways."

Yao Xiaoqing smiled and thought: It's not that I have many ways, it's the experience that people have summed up in their lives.

"In the future, you will wash the taro, and you will tell Shan'am and the others about this method."

Hua nodded, looked at the sky, "Xiaoqing, it's time to make lunch."

"Okay, Uncle Niu said he wants to eat fish balls, so let's cook a fish ball, a pot of fish intestines, and some yams."

Yao Xiaoqing poured some water, salt, egg whites of wild eggs, wild garlic, and poria cocos powder into the fish paste, took two pairs of bamboo chopsticks, and each of them pressed a clay pot with Hua, and vigorously stirred the fish in one direction Puree until the fish meat is firm.

"Xiaoqing, you go and cook the fish intestines, and I'll squeeze the fish balls."

"Okay, I'll stew some more bone broth and cook the fish balls later."

Hua brought the clay pot to the stove, grabbed a lump of meat paste with her left hand, and squeezed it with her fist. The fish paste squeezed out a small fish ball from the tiger's mouth, caught it with a wooden spoon in her right hand, and put it into a clay pot filled with clear water. Soak for a while before cooking.

Yao Xiaoqing cut the fish intestines and liver into short sections, put some salt in it and kneaded them for a while, cleaned them, chopped some wild garlic, chopped a handful of garlic sprouts, and brought them to the stove.Standing in front of the stove, sighing while frying fish intestines: If such fat fish intestines are fried with pickled ginger, pickled peppers and kimchi, it will taste good.

Wait until the flowers have squeezed out all the fish balls, and the bone broth is ready.

Yao Xiaoqing put two thick firewood sticks in the stove, took the fish balls up with a colander made of thin bamboo strips, and put them into the bone soup. He took out a firewood stick, boiled it for a while, put some garlic sprouts, and poured it into the vegetable bowl.

Take out the boiled yams from the pot and bring them to the table, and the workers will come back one after another.

Yaohu said to Yao Xiaoqing: "Xiaoqing, we will be able to build the kang bed in the house that was repaired first in the afternoon. When Dashi and the others come back to find some stone slabs and lay them on, they will be ready for use."

Yao Xiaoqing nodded, "I fell asleep hard, and when we come back from cutting some cattail grass and weaving some mats, we will move it down when you come back."

Yaohu nodded, "Alright."

Xiong Niu was drooling when he saw the fish balls in the dish, "I like fish balls the most, but it's a pity that I'm going to Qiushan, and I won't be able to eat delicious food on the way."

Yao Xiaoqing laughed and said, "Uncle Niu, I'll bake some pancakes for you tomorrow morning, cook some bacon and salted eggs, and take them with you on the way."

Achun looked at him and laughed, "Xiong Niu, how old are you! You are more greedy than Yaya and Asen."

When Ah Chong and Gen returned from the river, they brought back some fish and shrimp.

At night, everyone prepared the baskets, baskets and straw sandals to be taken to Qiushan, and set off for Qiushan early tomorrow morning.

Yaohu said to Dashi and the others: "I'm not in the tribe, if you have anything to discuss with Xiaoqing, you can do whatever she says!"

"It's the leader," everyone answered in unison.

Yao Xiaoqing said to Yaohu: "Father, don't worry, I will take good care of the tribe."

Yaohu rubbed her ball head, "Father knows, my Xiaoqing is the most capable."

Muba took two tuckahoe cakes and gave them to the two. Mu Ya looked at him and said, "I heard they said they cooked fish balls, I..."

Muba choked, "I'm not that thick-skinned." After speaking, he turned and walked out.

The next day, before dawn, several old ladies got up to prepare food, baked some Poria cocos cakes, boiled some duck eggs and salted duck eggs, as well as bacon and jerky.

Gradually, a ray of dawn appeared from the east, and the birds in the forest were chirping on the branches, and the sky gradually brightened.Everyone is up.

Sam put the food on the table, and they all ate.Yao Xiaoqing gave Mufeng the snake medicine and Jinchuang medicine to install.Shan Amu gave Woodwind and Bull the basket with food.

Muba came out of the cave with Muya and Da'am, and the two followed Muba silently with their heads down.
