Chapter 263 Sweet Potato Flour

In the winter, wrapped in a blanket, sleep until you wake up naturally, and then lie in bed with your wife for a long time, this should be what everyone wants most.

But, brats are so annoying!

Ye Yaodong was sleeping soundly, but suddenly felt wet when he was in a daze, the water was still a little warm on his body...

When he woke up, he felt that his chest was being pressed, and a lot of it was wet. He lifted the quilt and saw that the brat's feet were on his chest, his crotch was a lot wet, and he was still sleeping soundly.

"Grass……"

"What's wrong?"

Lin Xiuqing was lying on the side and heard the movement, and woke up, and saw two little feet on his chest, and there was a water stain.

"Did your son pee?"

"This brat peed on my chest!"

Ye Yaodong wrinkled his face, if he wasn't afraid that his wife would be kicked in the stomach by these two children lying in the messy sleeping position, he wouldn't lie down and sleep with them.

Brat, peed all over him early in the morning.

At this time, Ye Chengyang seemed to feel that he was not covered by a quilt, and he was a little cold, and even turned over, pouted his buttocks towards the couple, and then continued to sleep, Ye Yaodong wanted to slap him.

"This guy can still sleep? I don't feel uncomfortable..."

With a wrinkled face, he sat up and was about to change clothes, but he heard his wife say, "Fortunately, I didn't pee on the bed."

"I've become a peeing mat."

"You're wet, just wipe it off. If the bed is wet, what shall we sleep at night?"

Lin Xiuqing patted the younger son's ass while talking, and then took off his pants for him. At this time, he also woke up, rubbing his eyes sleepily and calling mother.

"Wetting the bed, you know?"

He suddenly widened his eyes and flinched, and then he got into the bed to hide, and then a voice came out from inside in a childish voice, "No bedwetting! No beating!"

"Should I show you your pants, thinking that you can't hit them if you hide?"

"Can't hit! Don't hit me!"

At this time, Ye Chenghu was also woken up, "Yangyang wet the bed? Mom, I'll help you pull him out."

Ye Yaodong rolled his eyes, "Good brother!"

"Brother smelly~"

"Stop it……"

It was only 7 o'clock, and he was tossed out of bed. He didn't have to lie down anymore, and he happened to carry a hoe to dig sweet potatoes and pull radishes in the field.

"Little ones, come to work!"

Just yelling, Ye Chenghai ran out of the house in a panic, followed by a bunch of people behind him.

"Third Uncle, what are you doing?"

"Do you want to eat roasted sweet potatoes?"

"eat!"

"Then come and work for me."

"But I..."

"Breakfast, you know? Where are you guys going to die?"

"I told you to eat seriously, but you are not so diligent. When your third uncle yelled, the rabbit ran so fast, get out of here and eat, and go to school after eating..."

After Mrs. Ye finished shouting at the door, Mrs. Ye scolded again.

A group of children came and ran quickly, only two of my own family were still squatting there.

He patted both heads, "You guys are still reliable, work harder later, and bake sweet potatoes for you at noon!"

The two chickens nodded like pecking rice, "Father, we must work hard!"

Because the child doesn't go to school, Lin Xiuqing cooks it late, and the rice is only put into the pot at this moment. After cooking for a while, she stirs it with a spatula a few times after boiling, and then let it be stuffy, and also helps to harvest the sweet potatoes.

Seeing the two children squatting there to pick up sweet potatoes, playing very vigorously, the mud in one hand was all over their bodies and faces, and they had some headaches.

"Go to the side and pull the radishes, you are not needed here."

"Okay, I like picking carrots best."

Ye Chenghai ate and ate in the house, and finally brought out his rice bowl, "Third Uncle, can I discuss something with you?"

"Not negotiable!"

Ye Chenghai bit his chopsticks and stared, "I haven't even said that yet."

"You must have told me to bake one more sweet potato and save it for you after school."

"Hey, the third uncle who knows me."

"You didn't work, why should I feed you? Or you don't go in the morning, come to the field with me, and I'll bake you a sweet potato."

"That won't work. How can a sweet potato bribe me? My mother will beat me to death."

"You can't read anyway."

"Unless you tell my mother not to hit me."

"So a sweet potato can still buy you?"

Ye Chenghai stared at him depressedly, Ye Yaodong laughed, "Don't blame me for not reminding you, turn around and look, your mother has already come out with a whip."

Ye Chenghai turned his head for an instant and saw that his mother was walking down the steps with a whip, so he quickly poured the little porridge left in the bowl into his mouth, and then ran away immediately.

"Mom...I've finished eating...ah...don't hit...I've really finished eating...really..."

Ye Yaodong shook his head, "It's true that I won't fight for three days, and go to the house to expose the tiles."

"Who told you to tease him all day long? Call him even if you hoe a sweet potato."

"Isn't he also very active in running? There are so many people and strength, you can't underestimate child labor, you have to make the best use of it."

Lin Xiuqing glanced at him, she was really out of shape, and didn't bother to talk about him, as long as he knew how to work.

Ye Yaodong smiled and said: "Don't squat for too long, go and pretend to cool the porridge out, I'll do it."

"I'll be bored for a while, and I'll help to make it faster. Why... abuse of child labor is fine, but abuse of pregnant women is not acceptable."

"That is, the child is born to collect debts, but the wife will be hurt."

Lin Xiuqing was a little happy being coaxed by him, but she pursed her lips in secret amusement, and didn't smile. In fact, the upturned corners of her mouth and her suppressed smile had long been exposed.

"Smile when you're happy, I know you're happy."

She turned her head and raised the corners of her mouth, and glared at him with a smile, "I'll go and pretend that the porridge is cold."

Ye Yaodong grinned and continued to wave the hoe, feeling that life is good now, with hope.

Lin Xiuqing went in for a short while and then came out, only to see her youngest son holding a carrot and overturning half a somersault backwards with excessive force.

Then he threw the radish aside casually, and continued to pull out another one, only to end up squatting on the ground again...

She couldn't see her eyes, so she took a few steps forward and took him aside, "You almost have no clothes to change, do you know that?"

Ye Chengyang stared innocently.

Lin Xiuqing had a big head, staring at Ye Yaodong not far away, "Why don't you look at it?"

"What do you think? I'm hoeing sweet potatoes, who can keep staring at him, just glance at him once in a while, it's all going to be dirty anyway, just leave him alone, just don't climb into the bed." Ye Yaodong didn't care road

"One, two or three are so worrying..."

"After a few shots, it will be clean!"

Lin Xiuqing: "..."

Heart plug!

"Otherwise, I'll change it later, and I'll be dressed again at night, don't care."

Seeing how dirty her little son was, she also gave up on herself and didn't want to care about it anymore. She let go of her hand and let him play with her, "Go, go..."

Ye Chengyang was so happy that he ran to pull the radish again, but he knew how to take a peek at his mother's reaction carefully, so he didn't scold anyone, so he did it with confidence.

Ye Yaodong waved his hoe and said, "What are you going to do with these sweet potatoes?"

"Let's see if my mother has made sweet potato flour this year. If she does, let's not make it. Just shred it and dry it in the sun to save trouble. Making sweet potato flour is too laborious."

"Show some dried sweet potatoes as snacks for you and the two children."

"You want to eat yourself?"

"What nonsense, how can I, a big man, like to eat these little things."

"If you are free, you toss."

"no problem."

The husband and wife hoeed one by one and picked up the other. After hoeing six baskets, they stopped temporarily and planned to eat. The two young ones were also very strong. They pulled out two rows of radishes, and their faces were flushed when they played.

Today, I was extremely serious about eating, and I quickly cooked a whole bowl of porridge without being reminded by anyone's ears. As soon as I finished eating, I immediately slid down and ran to the nearby field to pull radishes.

Ye Yaodong went up to the old house after hoeing all the sweet potatoes. Once he went there, he saw that the door of the house was in full swing. Several women in the family were washing sweet potatoes. Many onlookers.

He rolled up his sleeves and stepped forward to help, "I want to make sweet potato flour, why didn't I tell you yesterday? Go and call the elder sister-in-law and second sister-in-law over to help."

"No, we're too busy, and there's not much, half of it is done and the other half is shredded for drying."

Father Ye saw that he reached out to help, so he gave him the job of crushing. He lifted the crushed sweet potatoes aside to add water, and stirred them with a stick.

Mother Ye also freed up her hands to prepare the filter screen and filter rack, and set them up on top of the large water tank used to hold the filtered water.

Then Father Ye poured a few scoops of the stirred sweet potato pulp into the filter, and Mother Ye fiddled with the filter rack to filter the pulp into the big tank, and then squeezed out the remaining slag by hand. .

The filtered water will settle for about 12 hours, then pour out the water the next day, add water and then soak the sediment.

Repeat three or four times to rinse off the impurities inside, and then take out the sediment and dry it to obtain sweet potato flour.

The sweet potatoes with red hearts are not as high as the sweet potatoes with white hearts, but the sweet potatoes with red hearts are delicious.

The process is a bit laborious, but it is authentic farm sweet potato flour, which is also very convenient to make vermicelli.

Ye Yaodong was busy with his work, but the women washing sweet potato flour couldn't stop praising him.

"I didn't expect A Dong to change as soon as he said..."

"Who says it's not? In the past few months, I've grown up all of a sudden, and I've become capable again. I bought a big boat and caught so many good goods..."

"I became diligent all of a sudden, and knew how to help the family. I was promising. They all said that I would become the first ten thousand household in our village. Lixiang woke up laughing from her dream..."

"I used to scold every day and three times a day, but suddenly it got better. How did you get better?"

As they talked, they asked the person concerned, "Ah Dong, why are you suddenly enlightened?"

"It just happened suddenly. It's not just helping the family a little bit. I feel that going to sea is also very interesting."

"It's also interesting... We seaside people have no choice but to go to sea to beg for a living..."

Another woman with good deeds asked: "I heard that you are going to become a millionaire, is it true?"

"Nonsense, I'm probably 900 yuan short of the [-]-yuan household." He wiped the sweat from his forehead, these women really don't care.

"Just kidding, how is it possible, it's okay to tell us..."

"Auntie Chunhua, should I lend me 9000 yuan so that I can be famous in the newspapers all over the country?"

"Scary... what are you kidding..."

"You're joking with me, why don't I have a few jokes with you?"

"Slippery..."

Mother Ye smiled and said: "It's all rumors. I only heard that a household of [-] yuan came out of raising pigs. I haven't heard of a village that even raised a household of [-] yuan from fishing..."

Ye Yaodong poured the remaining half basket of washed sweet potatoes into the top opening of the blender, and then slapped his butt and slipped away.
