The Snail Spirit Travels to the 1970s

Compared with corn whiskers and small wooden sticks, these corn leaves are much softer, but Tian Tian still can't get used to them.

Besides, the corn leaves are actually quite easy to get leaked, so I would secretly use the toilet paper in her space every day.

While using it, I was afraid that there would not be enough toilet paper, so I only dared to use two sheets each time I went to the bathroom.

The team will also distribute corn husks and corn stalks to you as firewood based on the work points of each household.

Some brigades would also send these things to farms to sell for money. The farms raised cows and donkeys, all of which ate corn stalks, and the money earned would be distributed to the farmers.

For example, the team members of Tian Tian's group directly distributed the firewood to them as firewood.

Adding up all these scattered things, there are quite a lot of things to burn in the winter.

But if you don't carry these things, the fire will go out after a while. If you only use corn stalks to cook, you don't know when the meal will be ready.

You still have to use firewood sticks. Not only is the fire powerful, but it also burns for a long time. You only need to burn a few firewood sticks for a meal, and the charcoal produced can also be used to roast chestnuts and sweet potatoes.

Chen Guihua and Tian Tian quickly twisted off all the corn kernels.

Without waiting for Tian Lisong and the others to come back, Chen Guihua took the cornfield directly to the mill to grind cornmeal.

It just so happened that there was no one in the mill, so Chen Guihua went there and started grinding cornmeal.

She herself was also surprised. The first few days after the grain was distributed were the busiest time for the mill. Sometimes the mill did not stop for the whole day, and there were still many people grinding grain late at night.

Chen Guihua didn't expect that the mill would be so quiet today, with no one around.

She poured half of the corn kernels onto the mill as if she had gotten a great bargain.

There is a millstone and a grinder in their mill. It is more convenient to use the millstone for grinding small grains, but it is faster to use a stone mill for grinding flour.

A millstone can also be used to grind flour, but that requires grinding it back and forth several times, which is a waste of time. Therefore, people usually use a millstone to grind flour.

Fortunately, Chen Guihua acted quickly. Just as she poured the corn kernels onto the mill, someone else came into the mill.

"Come and grind the flour!"

"Fourth Aunt, you are here too."

The person who was talking to Chen Guihua was the same Aunt Tian who had talked to Tian Tian in the field.

"I came here because there was no one in the mill. You haven't seen that the mill is full of people these days. The grinding has never stopped. Many people eat and live in the mill." Aunt Tian Si said.

Her home was just opposite the mill, and she could see clearly how many people were in the mill every day. Today she was waiting until there was no one in the mill before coming over, but she didn't expect Chen Guihua to be faster than her.

The mill was occupied by Chen Guihua, so Aunt Tian poured the corn kernels onto the millstone.

They were all used to doing farm work, so they didn't find pushing the millstones and the grinding mill tiring at all. They pushed them around in circles very easily.

Time passed quickly as we chatted and pushed the mill. Before we felt tired, all the cornmeal was ground.

Chen Guihua picked up the broom beside her and carefully swept all the ground cornmeal into the flour bag she brought, not even leaving out the flour in the cracks.

After all the flour on the millstone was swept clean, Chen Guihua stared at Aunt Tian Si's millstone in a daze.

"Wait a moment, I will grind this grain of rice soon." Fourth Aunt also knew that Chen Guihua still needed to grind more rice, so she spoke up.

"I'm not in a hurry, auntie, just take your time and if it doesn't work, I'll help you." Chen Guihua spoke politely to her fourth aunt.

Fourth Aunt naturally didn't take it seriously and continued pushing her mill.

After finally waiting for Fourth Aunt to finish collecting the small corn bran, Chen Guihua enthusiastically helped Fourth Aunt collect all the small corn bran, and then poured all her own corn kernels onto the millstone.

After pushing the millstone for a while, she felt a little tired, but when she saw the golden corn kernels on the millstone, she suddenly felt full of strength and energy again, and felt that she could do it again.

Aunt Tian Si, who was pushing the millstone at the side, looked at Chen Guihua in confusion. Why did she feel that Chen Guihua was more energetic than when she first arrived?

Chen Guihua ground the corn into small grains, put them into bags, and carried them back home along with the cornmeal.

Seeing all the grains put into the grain jars, everyone felt at ease.

The cabbages and radishes in the field were also cut down and placed neatly in a pile under the wall.

The most common vegetables they grow at home are cabbage, radish and carrots, so the quantity of these three vegetables is...

Tian Tian and her friends have already put half of the cabbages and radishes into the cellar.

Nowadays, the cabbages outside need to be pickled into sauerkraut, the radishes need to be dried into radishes and pickled into pickles, and the baby carrots also need to be pickled into pickles.

After breakfast the next morning, Li Meiyu and Chen Guihua took the untied quilts and mattresses, as well as the clothes they had changed from the autumn harvest, and went to the river to wash clothes.

Tian Baobao and Tian Zhuo ran outside to play.

There is no work for them to do now, so Grandma Tian doesn't care what they do all day long, as long as they don't get into big trouble.

Tian Tian felt a little unwell after going to the toilet in the morning. She walked awkwardly and even sat on the chair carefully.

The mouth was also red, and there was a transparent blister on it.

When Lin Meiyu saw Tian Tian in the morning, she laughed at her, laughing at her for being stubborn and eating so much chili sauce while eating yesterday. As a result, she tasted the bitter taste this morning.

Lin Meiyu was telling the truth, and Tian Tian had no way to refute it. She smiled guiltily at Lin Meiyu, then slipped away and said nothing.

After breakfast in the morning, Old Mrs. Tian boiled a pot of water to wash her hair. After her hair was half dry and she tied it up, she went into the house and changed her clothes.

After everything was packed, Old Lady Tian said to Tian Tian: "I'm going out for a while today. If I can't come back at noon, you can cook for yourself."

Tian Tian's eyes lit up, and she became more energetic.

"Grandma, are you going to the county town?"

Old Mrs. Tian only has one nephew left in her family. He only comes to visit his aunt during the Chinese New Year. They don't interact with each other at other times, let alone let Old Mrs. Tian visit them.

The only person who could make Old Mrs. Tian take the initiative to visit her was Tian Tian’s aunt, Tian Lijuan.

Going to see Tian Lijuan means that Old Mrs. Tian is going to the county town.

Going to the county town!

Tian Tian has been here for such a long time, but has never been to the county town.

Although the original owner studied in the county town, she was a good girl and had never been anywhere else except school.
