Changshui Village Farming Notes

Chapter 98 Soybean Threshing
Gu Jianping's voice was a little heavy, since the moment he saw Big Brother Luo yesterday, his mood was like surging waves, unable to calm down for a long time.

Luo Youfu approached step by step, and finally, he reached a place within Gu Jianping's reach.

Slowly raising his right hand, he patted him on the shoulder with some relief, and said calmly, "Jianping, I never thought that I should get anything in return for saving you, and the matter of Qingyang has nothing to do with you. Don't worry about it." I have a burden in my heart, I am a man, I can resist."

After calming down, he pretended to be relaxed and said, "Oh! Don't mention those things, it's all over... You are a good person, and your daughter is also a smart one. I heard that your family opened an orchard when I came back yesterday. That's not bad! This child Yun Nier, I thought she would have great promise in the future."

Mentioning his daughter, Gu Jianping felt a little relieved, and said with a grin, "Children mess around, it's a little income."

The topic gradually turned to the orchard, and Gu Jianping told Luo Youfu in detail what happened in Changshui Village in recent years, and also talked about the reason why Gu Kuangyun opened the orchard.

Luo Youfu also gradually opened up the chatter box, talking about his situation in the past few years, talking about the cities he traveled to and the people he met in the past few years.

Two men in their 50s and [-]s are like relatives whom they haven't seen for a long time.

Behind them, the sun on the sea had already risen, and the brilliance of the rising sun sprinkled on their bodies, covering their bodies with a layer of golden light.

With Luo Youfu's joining, the vegetable garden gradually got on the right track.

Irrigation and weeding were all contracted by him and Gu Jianping. In order not to disturb the two good brothers, Gu Kuangyun also consciously went home and set up the original land of the Gu family with Lin Shuhua.

After harvesting the peanuts, beans and sweet potatoes, Gu Kuangyun rested at home for two days.

During this period, she puts the soybeans in the yard to dry every day, and thoroughly dries the half-dried soybeans, and then she can start to prepare the pulled soybeans for threshing.

Mechanization is not widely used in Changshui Village, and the soybeans, peanuts, and corn grown by various families are manually threshed.

On a sunny day, Gu Kuangyun first spread a layer of plastic sheeting in the yard, put the dried soybeans on it, and then took out a mysterious weapon—a wooden stick.

First pour strength into the right hand, and then use the wrist to beat the wooden stick vigorously on the bean stalk, and then the dried and cracked soybeans will easily come out of the soybean pods.

Gu Kuangyun changed batches after smashing one batch, and he worked very hard.

Afterwards, Lin Shuhua would collect the threshed soybeans and sift them again with a dustpan to pick out excess dust and low-quality soybeans.

The harvested soybeans can be stored after drying in the sun for a few days. If they are well preserved, they can be eaten for a long time.

Gu Kuangyun had been eyeing their soybeans for a long time, and she scooped out a lot of them as soon as they dried, soaked them in a large basin mixed with spiritual spring water, and let them stand overnight.

The next morning, she excitedly dragged Lin Shuhua to Chen Boyang's house.

Aunt Yunxiang likes to eat beans, so Uncle Chen specially made a small stone mill for her.

The Gu family didn't have a soybean milk machine, and the beans made by using a stone mill were more fragrant, so she came up with the idea of ​​Chen's stone mill.

When the mother and daughter entered Chen's yard, Liu Yunxiang was cutting pigweed.

Hearing that Yun Nier wanted to use her family's stone mill, Liu Yunxiang was very forthright, and quickly called Gu Kuangyun to go into the utility room with her to move the small stone mill out.
