Life in a small village with quiet mountains and quiet waters

Chapter 80
The brothers and sisters chatted for a while, Gu Siwei started chopping firewood, and Sicui went into the vegetable garden and started mending the fence and rattan trellis.

"Brother, shall we build a chicken coop?"

"Brother, let's make a goose nest, and wait for the next time you meet a goose egg, we will incubate it ourselves."

While working, Si Cui kept turning her brain, and within a short time, she made countless demands on Gu Siwei.

Gu Siwei naturally agreed, and if he lives here permanently in the future, the poultry that should be raised still has to be raised. Although the domestic chickens have not been obtained yet, Gu Siwei still has some pheasants, but these pheasants are all taken away. Gu Siwei cut off his wings, and he can't fly far. As long as they are still in this gourd valley, they are Gu Siwei's lunch.

Next, the siblings began to discuss things like the poultry house and the pigsty. In short, the two got together and discussed slowly.

When the sun was about to set, Gu Siwei fried fried rice and heated up the braised eggplant left over at noon. The brother and sister each had a large bowl of fried rice, served with eggplant, and small pickles. After eating happily, they went to bed sleep.

In the early morning, when Gu Siwei opened his eyes, it was already bright outside.

Without getting up immediately, Gu Siwei turned his body sideways, hugged the quilt, and looked out of the window. Outside the window was half a gourd valley. Through the window, he could see a piece of blue sky, a piece of green hills, and a piece of uncultivated fertile soil in front of the house .

The sun has just risen, and the sun is not dazzling yet, with a slight golden yellow, it looks very warm and soft.

When I pricked up my ears, I could vaguely hear the birds chirping on the trees, chirping and chirping non-stop, which instantly made the morning come alive.

Gu Siwei decided to enjoy his new home, to enjoy the peace and serenity that he had rarely enjoyed in the past thirty years.

Gently got up from the bed, stood in front of the window, and opened the two small windows in the middle of the window. The door squeezed in, and Gu Siwei's face was lined up, which made Gu Siwei feel refreshed.

"What a morning".

Gu Siwei wanted to sigh with emotion. It would be best if he could recite a beautiful poem. Unfortunately, the nature of an engineering man made him scratch his head.

He was about to have a gentleman's day to examine himself and torture his soul, but a clear and clear child's voice pulled Gu Siwei back into reality.

Stretching out his head to have a look, he saw that Sicui was leading a group of monkeys at the other side of the ditch and didn't know what to do.

With curiosity, Gu Siwei put on his clothes, walked out of the big house, and stood at the door of the big house, holding the railing with one hand and scratching the itchy spot on his back with the other hand.

"Si Cui, don't play with monkeys early in the morning"

Gu Siwei shouted at Sicui.

"what?"

Si Cui didn't understand all of a sudden.

Gu Siwei repeated again: "I said, don't tease monkeys when you have nothing to do, these things are just half of the face, and I don't know when they will be impatient."

Although monkeys are class animals, it doesn’t mean that all monkeys have no personality. Some monkeys are born with a lack of personality. Gu Siwei feels that he can still hold back, but Sicui wants to annoy the monkeys. Being scratched is a small problem. If the monkey went down in one gulp, it would be interesting to see.

"I'm not teasing monkeys, bro, I'm flooding the fields," Sicui replied loudly.

"Let the water flood the fields?"

Gu Siwei walked over with curiosity.

When I arrived at the edge of the field, I found that there had been a lot of water on Sicui's side, and almost one-third of the fields to the east were soaked in water.

Now Gu Siwei is no longer the novice when he first came here. He knows what to do with watering. Now watering the fields is to prepare rice. Generally speaking, rice can be planted after a week of flooding.

"Do you want to grow rice?" Gu Siwei asked.

Sicui looked at her brother and straightened her waist, and replied with a hum: "I want to plant all this land."

"I don't even have a seedling, how can I plant it?" Gu Siwei said.

Sicui straightened her waist: "I know how to grow seedlings. I saw a big bag of rice in our house, and each one was full of ears. It was better than the rice I saw in other people's villages outside. It's so good." The rice is the best for raising seedlings. Brother, don’t worry, I will leave this matter to me.”

As she spoke, the little girl patted her chest.

Gu Siwei laughed and said, "You little girl, are you so confident?"

Gu Siwei didn't know how to grow seedlings. Although he grew up in a small city, he had never planted any land. Even if he saw people planting land, he bought seedlings and sent them to the fields. Farmers only had to put the seedlings on the ground Go to the rice transplanter, turn the machine around in the field, and the rice seedlings will be planted.

Obviously, this is not the case now. Not only is the breeding done manually, but there is also no shortage of people for transplanting rice seedlings. After such a trip, an adult would not be able to carry it, let alone a ten-year-old child.

"I have confidence," Si Cui said forcefully.

Gu Siwei said: "I can't let you do it alone, I have to go with me, let's not be greedy for everything, such a large piece of land can't be completed by the two of us, and don't think it is intensive cultivation, that way It’s unrealistic, let’s just use the method of throwing rice seedlings, which is almost enough.”

Si Cui nodded after listening, and she asked one more question: "Brother, do you still know how to throw seedlings?"

"I haven't eaten pork, haven't I seen pigs running? These days, rice seedlings are being planted and weeded everywhere, so I'll know when I look at it," Gu Siwei said.

I just saw that they were planted, but I didn't see how the seedlings were sent, so Gu Siwei was half-toned.

So just like that, the brothers and sisters began to discuss the matter of planting rice again.

About five or six minutes later, Gu Siwei heard Si Cui's stomach growling.

"Hungry? When did you get up?"

Gu Siwei asked.

Si Cui was a little embarrassed, rubbed her stomach and said: "I always feel that such a good place is a bit unreal. I fell asleep very late last night, and I couldn't fall asleep before dawn this morning, so I had to get up and think about it." Find something to do."

"Then you thought of growing rice?" Gu Siwei smiled.

"Or else?" Sicui thought it was a matter of course.

"Okay, if you want to work again, you have to have a full meal first. Let's go, let's make breakfast." Gu Siwei stretched out his hand and rubbed Sicui's head lightly.

Si Cui followed Gu Siwei happily, but the little girl was a child after all, and the way she walked was not a road, but a catwalk along the narrow canal dam, giggling as she walked.

Gu Siwei turned his head and took a look, and didn't scold her, but asked: "What do you want to eat in the morning? Is it noodles or pancakes? If it's pancakes, let's burn a place, shredded pork and vegetable soup. If it's noodles, Let's just eat shredded pork noodles."

"Noodles, I want to eat noodles." Sicui immediately made a choice.

Gu Siwei said: "Okay, let's eat noodles."

Back in the small kitchen, Gu Siwei rolled noodles with Mian, while Sicui entered the vegetable garden with a small basket, and began to cut the chicken feathers that had just grown in the ground, and washed them next to the canal after cutting them.

Gu Siwei’s rolling of noodles was also very smooth, there were only two people, so only a small scoop of flour was used, and a little water was added to reconcile the noodles, and then kneading began, rolled into a large dough, and sprinkled with some flour To prevent the skins from sticking together, overlap the skins.

clang!clang!clang!
With the sound of the knife, the noodles that were almost neat and smooth and one finger wide were cut out, and all the skins became noodles. Gu Siwei reached out to grab the cut noodles, shook them lightly, and the noodles fell apart.

At this time, Si Cui was already in place, and the fire at the bottom of the stove had already started.

Put some oil in the pot, and there is only a handful of shredded wild pork in the cut space. When you throw it into the pot, you can hear the sound of frying. Put some spices, add a little dark soy sauce, and serve it to enhance the flavor A little sugar, a simple topping is ready.

Take out the toppings, add water directly to the pot, put all the noodles into the pot after boiling, cover the pot and simmer directly, wait for the water to boil twice, take off the pot cover and see that the rolled noodles are cooked up.

Take it out, run it in cold water while it is hot, quickly pour in the water and then take it out instantly, which not only washes off the flour on the noodles, prevents the noodles from sticking together, but also cools down the temperature of the noodles, making it more refreshing to eat.

Two bowls of noodles are served, and when the toppings are poured, the little fragrance will rise immediately.

"Here, this bowl is for you."

Gu Siwei handed the bowl in his hand to Si Cui.

At this time, Sicui couldn't care about other things, she held the bowl and directly used the pot as a table, and started to suck up.

Gu Siwei was not much better, and the sound of sucking his face was no less than that of Si Cui.

Two bowls of noodles are definitely enough. At this time, Gu Siwei no longer mentions the theory of eating less staple food and eating more dishes.

Three times, five times and two times, the wind and the clouds!

In less than 5 minutes, the brothers and sisters wiped out all the noodles in their respective bowls.

Hahahaha!

After eating, the two looked at each other and smiled.

"Are you full?"

Gu Siwei asked Sicui: "Let's make another pot if we are not full."

But Sicui wiped his mouth: "I'm full, brother, you are full, I must be full, not only full, but also a little full, listen to me."

The little girl patted her stomach and made a thumping sound.

"Well, I'm full."

Gu Siwei also reached out and patted his stomach. The same voice was not bad at all.

So the brothers and sisters had fun together again.

They ate too much noodles in the morning, so the two of them had to take a rest first, digest food and then wash the dishes.

Unexpectedly, the two of them moved the small bamboo cot under the camphor tree, and each of them had a small bed. After a while, they fell asleep one after another.

By the time the two of them opened their eyes, the sun was already hanging in the center, and it was time to ring.

have to!It's time for lunch again.
