Reborn Soul: Me and My Family

"My girl, finish the work in your hands. I'll get a few ducks to deal with. We'll try another recipe today."

The mother and daughter were busy with their own things. Seeing that he had nothing to do, Ouyang Zhen did not get involved. After thinking about it, he asked his daughter to put the machine at the door of the house, picked up the large instruction manual that came with it, and began to study it seriously.

This machine is now the treasure of his family. It is also related to whether the family can eat meat frequently after his daughter goes to the countryside. He must study the operation steps of the machine thoroughly before the braised meat is ready.

Many different kinds of peppers are now planted in the land of the space, and even a lot of spices for making braised food can be found in the mountains.

Zhou Guilan has now mastered the use of various ingredients for braised meat. She can easily grab the right amount, and Ouyang Zhen finishes it before the first pot of braised meat is ready.

I first did some experiments with vegetables and fruits, then picked up a notebook and wrote down the specific methods.

Ouyang Qing took a plate of braised meat and duck that had been braised and cooled to do the experiment. Ouyang Zhen started the machine, divided each plate into 5 small portions, and placed them in the food delivery port.

Then I pressed the start button. The first step of the machine was to preserve the cooked meat with technology. The second step was to sterilize the food at high temperature and then cool it before it entered the sealed bag. Within a few minutes, the vacuum-packed bag slowly rolled to the exit.

Ouyang Qing picked up a bag at random. He could see without careful observation that the packaging was very tight and there was no bloating or leakage for the time being. In the future, he only needed to observe the packaging every day to see if there were any changes.

The braised meat will not go bad if kept in the space. Ouyang Qing also plans to observe the vacuum-packed meat first and taste it after a while. If successful, they can start braising the beef.

The weather had been very hot and humid for several days in a row. Ouyang Qing was on vacation at home in the afternoon. Suddenly, there was a loud thunder outside the house. The sky was gray and gloomy. It was not until the evening when everyone went home from work that heavy rain began to fall. There was heavy rain mixed with lightning outside, but there was silence inside the house.

After the heavy rain, it was obvious that the stuffy feeling around had disappeared and the temperature had slowly dropped. The next morning, Ouyang Qing was woken up by the cold, and when he uncovered the quilt, he felt a cool breeze.

I took out a long-sleeved shirt from the closet and put it on. I finally felt a little warmer. I stood at the window and looked downstairs. The ground that was wet after last night's heavy rain had been dried by the strong wind.

The ground is covered with fallen leaves, swaying in the wind. Only the leaves left on the branches are rustling, as if saying that autumn is coming~autumn is coming.

At this time, Ouyang Bo in Heilongjiang Province, after receiving the money and letter from home, also saw the house drawings sent with the letter. These days, he followed Aunt Qiao to choose a suitable location for building a house.

Now that the busy farming season is over, Ouyang Bai has bought some earth bricks through his comrades, enough to build the entire yard. Now he just has to wait for the goods to be delivered before he can start work.

The team leader and his family had already made arrangements with the villagers who needed help in building houses. Tomorrow is the day to lay the foundation. Ouyang Bai's grand plan naturally attracted the attention of the villagers and educated youth.

The curious villagers went to ask the team leader's wife. Aunt Qiao was not a pushover and sent those people away with just a few words. However, the new house was built for the newly arrived educated youth, so the news spread quickly.

After several twists and turns, the rumor became more and more outrageous. The yard became the new dormitory for educated youth. When a few nosy people in the educated youth site heard the news, they all came up with their own ideas. The male educated youth were led by She Hongbo and Song Jianbo.

The female educated youth were led by Diao Caishu, Qiu Rufeng, and Yao Xiangmin. Normally, this group of people were not very united, but today, as if they had made an appointment, they all appeared at the village branch of Qingshan Brigade.

This was not a coincidence. They had found out in advance that the village chief's brothers and the village secretary would be in the brigade headquarters today, so they hurried over.

The place where Fan Dazhi was sitting today was right in front of the gate of the village branch. He inadvertently raised his eyes and noticed the people walking towards them. Wow, there were quite a lot of people today.

All the troublemakers at the educated youth point had come. When some nosy women saw so many people coming this way, they put down their work and followed them to join in the fun. They also brought along several gossipy women along with them.

"Tell me, why can't these bastards keep quiet for a few days?" Fan Dazhi's tone was mixed with helplessness. Fan Dayong and the village secretary Fan Jingchang also turned their heads to look outside.

When the group of people walked into the courtyard of the village party committee, Fan Dayong and his companions also walked out of the house and into the courtyard. "What happened? Can't we just rest in the house when we are not working? She Hongbo, tell me."

She Hongbo was used to being playful and smiling. He noticed that the village chief's tone was not very good, so he quickly laughed and said, "Village chief, we came to see you today for serious matters."

Fan Dazhi was not surprised to see that it was She Hongbo who spoke first. This fool thought he was smart, and every time he made trouble, he was fooled by Song Jianbo and acted as his pawn.

"It would be great if you were this enthusiastic about going to work. I don't ask everyone to get full work points, but at least you can solve your own food rations, right? Your food rations will definitely not be enough this year.

I'm also telling you in advance that the village will not lend you food for the winter this year. If food is still not enough, you can come and buy it with money. Don't just stand there, tell us what you have to say."

Before he could even open his mouth, he was scolded by the village chief. The expressions of the people who followed him were also very ugly. They usually did little work and did not get many work points. They were about to go into hibernation.

What should they do if the village really refuses to lend them food? Besides, if they had money on them, they wouldn't have made themselves so thin and pale!

Diao Caishu was the most impatient among the three female educated youth. "Village chief, we came here just to ask, isn't the village renovating a house now? I heard from the villagers that the house was built for the educated youth to live in.

You also know the situation of our educated youth dormitory. When we got off work, we took a look and found that they were all small single rooms. I heard that you, the secretary, and the team leader are all here, so I want to apply to you in advance. After the new educated youth site is built, can we female comrades live there first? "

"What do you mean, Diao? Didn't we agree on this when we came here? Half of them are male and half are female educated youth. Why did you change your mind when you got here? Besides, why should you female educated youth live in the new houses first? Don't you take us male comrades seriously?" She Hongbo roared in dissatisfaction.

Yao Xiangmin had been keeping an eye on the new house over there every day since they started digging the foundation. Later, when word spread in the village that this yard was a new site for educated youth, he suddenly became excited.

The youth cadre site where they live now is an old house. A few years ago, when it snowed heavily, the houses in the village collapsed in the middle of the night, injuring many people. Two elderly people were killed on the spot when they were hit by broken beams.

In the past two winters, every household in the village's older houses took turns to clear the snow from the roofs.

The temperature outside is already low in winter. No matter how thick their clothes are, they feel their hands and feet will be frozen when they return to the house. But compared to frozen hands and feet, they are more afraid that the roof of the house will collapse due to the accumulated snow.
