The age of rebirth: I became a farmer's little koi

Chapter 207 Never agree
Chen Zhaodi prepared a table of good dishes, which impressed Factory Manager Fang.

The Liu family has Liu Xinyu who is good at collecting money, so it is definitely not short of money, but it is definitely not easy for a farmer in a small mountain village to make such a table of delicious dishes temporarily.

Liu Xinyu never expected that Chen Zhaodi would prepare ten dishes in such a short period of time.

Sweet and sour fish, braised shrimp in oil, roasted rice field eel with garlic, roasted chicken with millet, steamed bacon and sausage, five hard dishes.

The other five are of course seasonal vegetables, including cold cucumber, snowflake tomato, tiger skin green pepper, ground three delicacies, and stir-fried loofah.

Finally, there is a winter melon and seaweed soup stewed with cured pork ribs. The taste is really delicious.

The only regret is that there is no good wine at home.

But even so, Director Fang still enjoyed the meal.

Not to mention the farmhouses, even in the city, the Chinese New Year is not so rich.

That night, Factory Manager Fang and the driver spent the whole night fighting in Liu Qingshan's bedroom.

The next morning, they took the breakfast that Liu Xinyu personally prepared for them and rushed to Shen City.

Today, the Liu family is going to harvest rice. Although the Liu family has no labor, it has a population of eight, and the paddy field they have allocated is more than three acres.

Since the rice is going to be harvested today, of course Liu Xinyu can't be in a hurry to assemble the machine, so she plans to go to the field to grab the harvest.

Of course, it was impossible for Chen Zhaodi to let her go to the field to cut rice. Not to mention that Liu Xinyu had never done farm work, even if she had done it, she would not bear Liu Xinyu's hardship. Therefore, as in previous years, Liu Xinyu was still only responsible for the food of the whole family.

It is not too early but not too late for the Liu family to open the sickle. The village has already started harvesting three days ago.

This is the first year that the Minqin Brigade has contracted production to the households. Apart from the grain that needs to be handed over to the public, the rest is the ration of the family. The quality of the harvest is related to the family's food problem.

According to Chen Zhaodi, no matter how lazy they were before, they are now focusing on the field since the production was contracted to households. Therefore, the early rice yield per mu of the Minqin Brigade this year is at least [-]% higher than in previous years.

In fact, Liu Qingsong is the only strong laborer in the Liu family. Liu Houxing suffered from an illness last year, and his health is obviously not as good as before.

Although Chen Zhaodi and Wang Sanmei are all capable, they are lesbians after all, and they are definitely not as strong as men in terms of physical strength.

"Grandma, I don't think it will rain in these two days. There is no need to cut all the rice in one day. It's better to divide it into two or even three days." According to Chen Zhaodi, more than three mu of rice should be harvested in one day. After harvesting, Liu Xinyu hurriedly advised.

In fact, Liu Xinyu really wanted to hire a few small workers to hand over the harvesting and threshing of the rice to the small workers, and let her family take care of the drying.

In this way, the family will not be too tired, and she will have time to assemble the machines and start the factory as soon as possible.

It's a pity that even if she knew that her family was really not short of money, Chen Zhaodi would never agree.

After hearing Liu Xinyu's words, Chen Zhaodi took a look at Liu Xinyu and said, "Everyone in our family can farm now, but it's only a little more than three acres. If you farm early and go home later, you can cut it all in one day. You can cook at home with peace of mind. We are the ones to cut the rice!"

Well, Liu Xinyu sighed inwardly, didn't say any more, but secretly decided in her heart that she must do a good job in logistical support, so that her family can eat and drink well!

After sending the factory manager out of the village and back home, there was no one in the house. Even Liu Xincheng, who was only five years old this year, went to the field together.

Liu Xinyu hurriedly started to cook mung bean soup. In hot weather, he had to drink the heatstroke prevention soup with enough blood.

In addition to the mung bean soup, Liu Xinyu found out the honeysuckle and mint that were drying in the house, and brewed a large teapot of mint honeysuckle tea.

Put them all in baskets and hang them in the well with ropes.

After finishing these two tasks as soon as possible, Liu Xinyu began to prepare the extra meal before lunch.

According to Chen Zhaodi's plan, if all the harvests are finished today, I'm afraid there won't be much rest time at noon, and he will have to prepare four to five meals a day to ensure his physical strength.

Liu Xinyu plans to make pancakes
Take wheat flour, add water and yeast to reconcile the noodles, put them in a basin and let the noodles wake up for half an hour, and use the time to wake up the noodles to pick some cowpeas in the vegetable field in the backyard.

Remove the parts with worm eyes, wash the cowpea with well water, and cut into small cubes for later use.

He took out the pork from the cupboard, looked it up and down, and cut off about eight taels of fat and lean pork with one knife.

This piece of pork has just been bought and is very fresh.

Just now when I sent the factory manager and the others out of the village, I happened to meet the supply and marketing cooperative sending fresh pork to the countryside.

Sending meat to the countryside by supply and marketing cooperatives is a special treatment only available during busy farming seasons. Meat tickets are also required, and the price is slightly more expensive than buying them in town, which is more convenient.

If there is no mobile store that sends meat to the countryside, Liu Xinyu plans to ride a bicycle to the town to buy meat.

Since I happened to meet him, of course it was as convenient as possible, so I asked the butcher seller to wait for a while, ran home and asked Chen Zhaodi for two catties of meat tickets, and went to the entrance of the village to buy two catties of top-quality foreleg meat and came back.

Cut the cut meat into small cubes and then into minced meat, add the cowpea that was cut into small cubes before, add salt and monosodium glutamate, after thinking about it, add an egg and stir it into the stuffing.

At this time, he was almost awake.

It’s been a long time since anyone cooks food for the whole family, and it’s a big farm stove that she rarely uses. At the beginning, Liu Xinyu was a little flustered. After making two cakes, she mastered the heat, and then she seemed to be very smooth. .

Both the noodles and stuffing were bloody, looking at the basket full of pies, Liu Xinyu laughed himself out.

No matter, as much as possible.

If you can't finish eating in the morning, you can continue to eat in the afternoon.

Although the weather is very hot, this kind of pie will not go bad in a day.

Pulled up the mung bean soup and mint honeysuckle tea that were bubbling in the well, tried them with my hands, and they were all cooled down. Although the effect of the well cannot be compared with the effect of the refrigerator, the cooling effect of the well is really good.

Finding a bamboo hat to wear on her head, carrying a basket on her back with clean bowls and spoons, and carrying a basket in each hand, Liu Xinyu closed the door and set off for the paddy field that she had contracted for.

Of course Liu Xinyu knew where the paddy fields contracted by the Liu family were, and it was a little far from the village.

Although it was not yet eight o'clock, the temperature was already over 30 degrees, and Liu Xinyu felt sweaty all over after walking for a long time.

If the original Liu Xinyu would definitely not be able to endure this hardship, let alone be able to carry so many things.

Now Liu Xinyu, because of Liu Qingshan's inheritance, carrying this little thing is simply a trivial matter.

However, the hot weather is still a severe test for Liu Xinyu.

"Xin Yu, I brought food to your grandma and the others. What delicious food did you bring, so delicious?" Zhang Haisheng, who was cutting rice in the paddy field of Zhang Zhishu's house, sniffed hard and asked.

Liu Xinyu smiled and said, "It's not something rare, it's just dough pancakes. If you make a lot, Uncle Haisheng, would you like two yuan?"

Before Zhang Haisheng could speak, he heard Zhang Zhishu, who was sitting on the ridge smoking a cigarette, coughed twice, and quickly shook his head and said, "No, I'm not hungry. Hurry up and send it to your grandma and the others, by the way, wait I'm free, I'll go to your house to find you."
