After Black Lotus became a reborn person, he went completely crazy

"I brought a bag of sugar. You can't go to your sister's house empty-handed. Take it."

"How can this be so embarrassing?"

After pushing and shoving for a while, the two finally stayed. Aunt Chengcai was so happy that the wrinkles on her face were creased by her smile.

People in the village say that those who built the country are now particularly open and generous in doing things, which is incomparable to the past.

She still didn't believe it, but today she had seen it all, and promised: "I'll change my clothes and come over later. I'll give you news in the evening."

"Aunt Chengcai, there's no rush. You can come at your own time."

"I happen to have nothing else to do today, so it's a good time to go."

By the way, I picked a few more tomatoes and cucumbers from the vegetable garden and stuffed them into Xia Ran's backpack.

Xia Ran also smiled and thanked him for accepting it. People should give and take. When Aunt Chengcai saw that Xia Ran accepted it, she knew that she was considered as one of her own and she was even happier.

After returning home, Xia Ran sorted out the vegetables she had just brought back and put them together. It was good because she happened to be out of vegetables at home. She couldn't take vegetables from the space, could she?

It's not a big deal if I'm alone, but there are two migrant workers here. I first got some food for the chickens, pigs and donkeys.

The donkey's fodder was gone, so it was time to chop some new fodder. I made a few egg pancakes for Wangcai and myself, and fried some potato and celery shreds, and ate them in rolls.

I made some soy milk powder and drank it. I got a few packets of soy milk powder from Sister Su in the city. I also agreed to help buy spicy noodles, and I'm just waiting for them to bring it over.

Went to the threshing ground and pulled the wheat straw. Wearing gloves, Xia Ran had a lot of strength and pulled the straw bales easily.

There was just too much dust, it was so choking and unbearable. Xia Ran used a large green scarf to cover her entire head, leaving only her eyes exposed, but she still felt choked.

I didn't pull much wheat straw, but I choked and coughed non-stop. My cousin's wife Cheng Cheng's mother, who was working in the wheat field, saw it and couldn't stand it anymore, so she came to help.

"Stand further away, I'll do the talking. I noticed that you've been acting a bit more pretentiously lately. You didn't wear anything before, and I didn't see you do anything. You used to work so efficiently."

Xia Ran stepped back a few steps embarrassedly, making way for him, and didn't respond. He couldn't do the job of pulling the haystacks.

Turn around and pick up last year's corn stalks. Take them out and spread them out in the threshing floor. Let them dry in the sun for a whole morning and then you can cut them in the afternoon. The drier they are, the better, so they can be stored.

By the way, the wheat straw that had been pulled out was also spread out in the threshing floor to dry. It rained a few days ago, and a lot of the wheat straw exposed outside was wet and damp, and it couldn't be chopped without drying it.

The wheat field was in front of Xia Ran's house, with a road between them. Xia Ran quickly went home, found a clean red headscarf, and handed it to Cheng Cheng's mother.

There are only two headscarves at home. I can't wear the red one now, so I can only wear the green one. At this time, people are not very sensitive to the "green hat" joke.

Therefore, half of the women in the village wear green headscarves, because the supply and marketing cooperatives previously only offered red and green headscarves, with no other colors to choose from.

Cheng Cheng's mother took it and without saying anything, she covered her head like Xia Ran did, leaving her eyes exposed, and quickly pulled the wheat straw. The two of them worked together and were very fast.

Especially these women, they are quick, neat, willing to work hard, and are all good at work. After the two of them finished, Xia Ran called the other party back to his home for dinner.

Cheng Cheng's mother refused and took off her headscarf and handed it to her:

"Wait until tonight and make more. I'll bring my Chengcheng and Juanni over to eat with us. You're working with Aunt Gui to cut the grass, right? I'll come over to help you in the afternoon. You're working so slowly and hesitantly now, it's frustrating."

"Okay, Cheng Cheng's mother, what do you want to eat?"

"Anything is fine. Nothing you cook is bad."

"How about this, I'll make some white noodles for you to eat tonight?"

"That's great, the three of us can satisfy our cravings. I don't think your family has much vegetables. I'll bring you some when I come over this afternoon. There are so many vegetables in my garden this year that we can't even finish them all."

"Okay."

Xia Ran didn't refuse, she took her headscarf and patted the dirt off her body and went home. She washed herself thoroughly first, because she was too dirty, her face, arms and neck were all covered with dust.

It was still early, and I thought of the beef I bought. I decided to make myself some fried noodles with calf meat at noon. I mixed some more noodles and mixed them with the noodles I made in the evening, and woke up.

I found some pilaf and beef from the space, soaked some vermicelli, cut the meat and other side dishes.

I kneaded and kneaded the noodles I had eaten at noon, and even tossed and beat them until they were strong. I rolled them into a dough stick of uniform thickness, rolled them into a small circle, brushed them with oil, and continued to let them rise.

Xia Ran cooked a lot on purpose, even cooking for the two laborers, but she didn't see the two of them until dinner time.

It seems that the two young laborers were temporarily requisitioned today. Shitou knew that she had to help her mother grind flour today. Gui Niang said last night that she had to grind flour this morning.

There is no noodles at home, and they say it is too wasteful. Recently, Shitou always eats at Xia Ran's house, otherwise it would be even more wasteful.

This little boy has a good appetite and is very active. His food intake can easily match that of an adult laborer.

This resonated with several other women, who all said that their sons' stomachs were like bottomless pits that could never be filled.

Xia Ran now deeply agrees with this point. Shi Tou can easily finish two or three bowls of rice in her house.

Children in later generations eat a little at every meal, especially girls, who keep shouting about losing weight all day long. When eating rice, they would even count the grains of rice.

Unlike people today, who enjoy eating anything, have a sense of piety and respect for food, and never have leftovers. Every time she sees Jingwazi and Shitou eating, she eats an extra bowl of rice.

Her normal intake now is at least two to three bowls, or a large bowl, depending on the consistency of the rice.

Xia Ran put the extra calf meat into the space. It seems that the two kids will not have a good time today, so she will save it for herself to eat later.

Not only is beef expensive, but it also has no fat. For ordinary people, it is not economical or satisfying to eat, so few people buy it.

It is too conspicuous to eat it everyday. Unlike other ethnic minorities, they all use beef and mutton as their main meat.

Sure enough, the fried calf noodles I made myself are most to my taste. They don’t have such a strong taste of seasoning, they are just pure fragrance.

When I woke up from a nap, Gui Niang and Cheng Cheng's mother arrived.

The two took out the guillotine, but felt that it was a bit blunt and not sharp enough. They sharpened it a few times beside the donkey trough. They tried it with wheat straw and found that the blade was indeed much sharper, so they stopped.

Xia Ran was in charge of carrying the wheat straw to the two men and carrying the chopped straw to the hay room. The other two men did the work of chopping straw. The three of them worked very quickly together.

After a while, Shitou and Jingwazi also came over.
