Rebirth: I Farm in Hell to Live a Lifelong Life
Chapter 147: A Few Things in the Pocket
Li Shiqing still had an expression of regret, sadness, and as if she had done something wrong.
"I'm sorry, Brother Niu Pang, I didn't mean it."
As a young man in his thirties who was still unmarried, Niu Pang could not resist the coquetry of such an annoying little goblin. He smiled from ear to ear, revealing a mouthful of yellow teeth.
"Hey, you two, take a break. I'll give each of you a coin."
Li Shiqing pretended to be touched and looked at Niu Pang.
"Brother Niu Pang, you are such a good person. Please arrange some work for us. We two can't live in your house for nothing."
Niu Pang touched his head, looked around, and thought about whether there was any easier work.
Seeing the pile of corn in the corner of the room, he pointed at it and said to the two men:
"Then you can help me shell the corn kernels."
“Can you peel it?”
As he spoke, Niu Pang gave a demonstration.
After the mature corn is picked, it needs to go through three steps of processing.
First, the corn husk is peeled off, then the corn kernels are removed from the corn cobs and finally dried.
Corn husks can be woven and used as fire starter for cooking. Corn cobs are also commonly used for making fire.
Now piled in the corner are yellow corn cobs that need to be shelled.
Niu Pang picked up a black triangular iron lump with a round hole and a handle that could be shaken.
"Look, this is used to shell the corn kernels. Insert the corn into the hole, then turn the handle, and the corn kernels will fall off the cob and separate."
"Shiqing, you come and try it."
Li Shiqing looked at the little thing and thought it shouldn't be difficult, so he ran over and sat down to try it out.
Since the machine is not very heavy, when you crank the handle, the machine will move around as you crank it, which makes it difficult to use the machine.
"Oh, Brother Niu Pang, this is so heavy."
Niu Pang looked at Li Shiqing, who had thin arms and legs. It was true that female celebrities were different. Her strength was too weak. If he married her as a wife, she wouldn't be able to lift or carry anything.
"You can use your two feet to hold it in place, so it will be easier to apply force."
At this time, he looked at Eve who was standing next to him with her arms folded. He thought that this beautiful woman was pretty and often had a smile on her face, but she always gave him a feeling of being smiling on the outside but not on the inside, which made him feel a little scared.
"My lady, I'm sorry, but there's only one machine and I usually do the work by myself. Let me find you an awl and you can use it."
After saying that, Niu Pang took out a thin, pointed awl, stuck the hammer into the corn kernels, and then lifted it hard, and a row of corn kernels fell off.
"Look, like this, after one row is empty, you can push it down like this."
Eve took a quick glance and didn't bother with Niu Pang.
"Okay, I see."
Seeing that she agreed, Niu Pang didn't waste time talking to her and just gave the two of them some instructions.
"Except for the second floor, you two can go anywhere else. It's tiring to peel the corn by hand. You can switch to another method when you get tired. You'd better peel the corn kernels as soon as possible because you'll need them the day after tomorrow."
Li Shiqing asked curiously:
"Brother Niu Pang, what are we going to do tomorrow and the day after tomorrow?"
"Don't you know?"
"The day after tomorrow is the annual Niutou Festival in our Niutou Village. The Niutou Festival is the most solemn and important festival in our Niutou Village. In order to pay tribute to the gods, we will hold a party for one day and one night. During the party, every family must bring out the best food to offer to the gods. A grand sacrificial ceremony will also be held in the village temple. Everyone in the village must participate."
"Should we join in, too?"
"Of course, everyone in the village must participate."
Li Shiqing happily pulled Eve's sleeve, her eyes sparkling.
"Sister Ai Ai, there's a sacrificial ceremony going on, the Ox Head Festival. We're here to catch it. We're so happy."
Eve curled her lips and pulled back the corner of her clothes. "You stupid guys, just wait and see."
On the other hand, after returning to Niu Cuilan's house, Xu Qingyue learned that there would be a sacrifice the next day. She had some doubts about the god being sacrificed.
Niutou Village was really strange, so she had to prepare for the worst. What if the god they were worshipping was Fengdu Emperor? What if the statue with black mist appeared here?
She was really not sure she could save everyone in the village, so she quickly looked for an opportunity to let Yinghuo go and inform them.
"Yinghuo Yinghuo, quickly ask Yan Yan and Qin Se to send people to investigate these villages, especially the second floor, to see what's there."
"Okay master, I promise to complete the task."
Seeing that the two men had collected enough firewood, Niu Cuilan gave each of them two coins.
"We should have lunch together later, so you two can help me."
"Okay, Sister Cuilan."
You Keren helped wash the vegetables and Xu Qingyue helped light the fire.
[User has logged out: Xu Qingyue actually knows how to make a fire. There are not many young people nowadays who know how to make a fire.
Big Face: I have a different opinion of Xu Qingyue. I always thought she was the type of young lady who never touched women.
Give me a smack: Compared to other female stars, Xu Qingyue's performance is really good, she is not pretentious, she works efficiently, and she can do a lot of things.
Xiao Momo: I’ve become her fan. I really think this little girl is nice.
Beautiful and moving: Sister Keren is pretty down-to-earth. I didn’t have a very good impression of her because of her “rich lady” accent. The roles she played also all had accents, but she still looks pretty good on variety shows.
Love Qingyue for Ten Thousand Years: Miss Qingyue's investment is worth it
Qingyue's only sister: Sister is the strongest, sister is the best, sister is the most beautiful, sister is the cutest, sister loves me the most! ! ! ]
In the afternoon, the program team gathered the guests together and asked them to buy daily necessities needed for the overnight stay.
Two coins for a toothbrush, one coin for toothpaste, two coins for a towel, five coins for a water cup, three coins for socks, three coins for underwear...
A wide variety of goods, all clearly marked with prices, were placed in front of the director team.
Xu Zeliang shook back his few remaining hairs (without a wig, I don’t know what got him to the point of being inexplicably confident).
[Mr. Xu, your neck is cramping. Did you accidentally cramp your brain?]
"Ahem, after a day of hard work, everyone must have felt the enthusiasm of the villagers of Niutou Village, and everyone must have gained a lot."
"The next step is to buy supplies. In order to facilitate everyone's stay, the program team has carefully prepared daily necessities for everyone. Everyone can buy as needed."
The eight people each held a few coins in their trouser pockets and began to make calculations.
