Peanut sprouts, some people say it is poisonous and carcinogenic, while others say it is delicious, nutritious and therapeutic. These old people don’t care about it. People in his village have always had the habit of eating peanut sprouts, just like eating pea sprouts, soybean sprouts and green beans. Bean sprouts are similar, but because the yield of peanuts is not high, the process of planting and harvesting is still very troublesome. The villagers don't like planting too much, so peanut sprouts are even more rare for them.

Thinking of the crispness and deliciousness of the peanut buds, Lao Zhou couldn't sit still. How could he wait for the rainy days to grow buds naturally? Together with Xiao Shulin, he made peanut buds at home. (Ahem, it’s right not to wait, but waiting is in vain.)

The production technology of peanut sprouts is available on the Internet. Lao Zhou and his family, Xiao Shulin, browsed the Internet and found a few foam boxes. They spread fine sand and made peanut sprouts at home. The foam boxes were placed on top of the fireplace. In order to ensure the temperature, the fireplace in their house was never cold in those days, but it should not be too hot, otherwise the peanuts would rot.

Probably because the temperature and humidity are very suitable, or because the Lingquan water is so easy to use, this batch of peanut buds grew in only a week, and the ones grew white and plump, which is very gratifying.

Liu Chunlan chose some, and fried the fresh pork from Luo Hanliang's family with a few shallots. He was mixed with rice by Xiao Shulin.

"These peanut buds are pretty good, I'll bring some to Hongfeng and the others later." After eating, old man Luo said.

"Sure, I'll take it to the courtyard in a while, she just needs to come over in the afternoon." Luo Meng sat down on the sofa and yawned after eating and drinking.

The monkey boy sitting next to him was also yawning again and again. This kid looked taller recently, because he had been away from the monkey group for a long time, and he was not so afraid of scissors and knives. Romon took him there a while ago He went to the barber shop in town and cut his hair short.

After being raised for several months, Houwazi's originally withered and yellow hair gradually turned black, and now a few soft locks of hair are attached to his forehead and temples, matching his darker complexion and delicate facial features. People seem more and more peaceful.

Whether on the mountain or in the town, Houwazi likes to observe the surroundings quietly. He is not very talkative, and he is not as lively and active as other children of average age. Such a small child can even rub walnuts. It takes several months to rub it together, which is something that even many adults have no patience to do.

Although everyone didn't say anything on the surface, they still felt that the adopted child of Lao Zhou's family was a bit strange.

Luo Meng and Xiao Shulin also discussed this matter in secret, and they both felt that this child would definitely not be too gregarious in the future, but whether he fits in or not is not the most important thing. Consciously or unintentionally cultivate his interest in martial arts, such as asking Xiao Shulin to show off in front of him from time to time.

Sometimes when the mood comes, Xiao Shulin will teach him a few times at home, but he has not been allowed to formally start martial arts, because Houwazi has congenital heart disease, and they dare not mess around until this hidden danger is eliminated. .

After lunch for a short rest, Luo Meng moved two foam boxes to the tricycle, and rode to the courtyard. These three-wheeled motorcycles were really bought right back then, and more than a dozen tricycles were very useful on the mountain. It is convenient, the car is small and powerful, and they can go to many places in Niuwangzhuang, which is much more efficient than commanding buffaloes.

Luo Meng rode a tricycle onto the compound courtyard. It just so happened that the lunch break on this side of the courtyard was over, and those who should go to the ground had already gone to the ground. A few old people in the courtyard were grinding beans and drying sweet potatoes in a leisurely manner. The pumpkin was dry, and two old ladies were sitting under the wall scraping taro.

"Where's Fatty?" Romon stopped the tricycle and asked.

"Probably still asleep." The old lady smiled.

"This is the taro to eat at night? Where did it come from?" Luo Meng suddenly remembered that their family hadn't eaten taro for a while, and Niuwangzhuang didn't grow taro recently. I don't know if Luo Hongfeng brought it here. Now that I know more people, I can often get some new things from this village or that village.

"It's Lao Du's son, who brought it here when he came to pull cow dung in the morning." Another fatter old woman said.

"Oh, I almost forgot, today is Saturday."

Lao Du and the others needed a lot of cow dung, especially because of the drought this year, they didn't have any crayfish, so they had to grow vegetables.

Before Romon and the others used earthworms to raise Crab Creek grouper, they greeted Lao Du, and without further ado, he asked his son to bring over the earthworms. Later, Romon knew that their family grew a lot of vegetables this year, except On Saturday they came to pull cow manure themselves, and Romon also sent them a few times.

"This taro is good, but it's a pity that today's bones are not good, it was ruined." At this time, the fat man came down from the stairs rubbing his eye poo all the way.

"It's almost enough. How can you bear such a high standard every day?" There are not many meat dishes in Niuwangzhuang, and they don't get much to eat. The chicken, duck and fish consumed in the courtyard are basically bought every day, and only eggs are produced by themselves. Tofu and various vegetable pickles and dried vegetables.

"What's in here?" The fat man knocked on the foam box in the back of the tricycle.

"Peanut buds, let's fry them as a dish at night, don't finish them all, remember to save some for my sister."

"Peanut buds? You made it yourself?" The fat on the fat man shook, and all the sleepy bugs disappeared.

"Yeah." Lao Zhou nodded.

"Oh my boss! Why are you so versatile?" The fat man opened a foam box while flattering Lao Zhou, grabbed two peanut buds from the inside, and chopped off the heads and tails. , Throw it directly into your mouth and chew it.

"How is it?" Romon asked him.

"Fresh! Sweet!" The fat man smiled his fat face into a flower: "Pancakes are the best."

"Now?" Romon probably understood what he meant.

"Yes, Master, are you hungry right now? How many pancakes shall I make for you?" Fatty Hou looked like a dog.

"Success." Luo Meng nodded, took out his mobile phone and called Xiao Shulin: "Have you woke up, Monkey? The fat man said he wants to make pancakes."

Fatty Hou is lazy and greedy. There is nothing good about him. He does have two brushes to make food. Making a few pancakes is a piece of cake for him. It doesn’t take half an hour from kneading noodles to serving. Kung fu, this guy is right, the peanut sprouts are fried, and the rolled pancakes are really delicious.

Liu Chunlan and Old Man Luo ate a few, and when they were full, they went back to the hut to continue making biscuits. When Luo Hongfeng came up with her two daughters, those pancakes and side dishes were almost gone. Fatty Hou went to make it. Fatty Hou made the batter and asked them to make their own pancakes, and he went to cook.

Frying pancakes is also a technical job. Use a brush dipped in the batter and brush it on the hot pan. It should be neither too thin nor too thick. Feeling that the kitchen is too small and not bright enough, Xiao Shulin took the stove to the corridor. Putting down the pancakes, Houwazi and Luo Meihui and Luo Meiling squatted beside them and watched eagerly.

After Xiao Shulin fried one and put it on a plate, they added a roll of bean sprouts that Master Pang had just fried, and they ate it up in a few bites.Xiao Shulin fried one and they ate one, and Xiao Shulin fried one and they ate one. After eating more than a dozen, they burped and gave up the place, and then Yaya Dabao brought Dong Yi Dong Er. squatting there...

"What? Pancakes, I said they smell strange, Lao Zhou, I'll try one too." After a while, some people who worked on the mountain also came to smell the smell.

"This is really delicious! What is this crunchy one? It's not like bean sprouts."

"Old Zhou! What is this? I have to buy some back later."

"Peanut sprouts are gone now, let's do it another day." Lao Zhou thought for a while, if he could make peanut sprouts and sell them, it seemed that he could make a bit of money, at least more than selling boiled peanuts, plus their peanuts The maturity is good and the germination rate is high, so you can make money without losing money.

This afternoon, people who ate pancakes came again and again, and Xiao Shulin became interested in making pancakes, and he was very active in cooking them. After seeing it on the old Monday, he asked Fatty Hou to fry the remaining bean sprouts. Everyone roll pancakes.

Monkey Boy and the others were full, so Romon put some rolled pancakes in a small basket and asked them to send them to the southeast and northwest.A while ago, although Luo Meng had taught the boss and his family how to take turns letting the wind go, but the fat girl and the boss didn't leave their own territory very often, and usually let Dong Yi and Dong Er come out to play with Yaya Dabao.

Since peanut sprouts are so popular, Lao Zhou naturally couldn't miss this business opportunity. When Xiao Shulin was frying pancakes that afternoon, he called a few strong laborers who came back to eat pancakes to help, and packed out the warehouse next to the steamed buns. It will be used for peanut buds in the future.

It is not difficult to sprout peanuts, probably because the raw materials of Lao Zhou's family are very good, and there is no such thing as rotten or no sprouts as some people on the Internet said.Usually, as long as the temperature, humidity and air circulation are ensured, the diseased grains are removed in time to avoid infection. It is said that as long as they are not moldy or infected with aflatoxin, peanut sprouts are not only harmless to the human body, but also rich in resveratrol. Play a very good role in cancer prevention.

Boss Ma came to Niuwangzhuang very diligently recently. If he had nothing to do, he went to Buffalo Town to care about the operation of their swimming pool, and then went to Niuwangzhuang for a meal or two.

The operation of their swimming pool is of course good. Basically, every child in Buffalo Town asks their parents to get an annual or monthly card for the swimming pool. There are relatively few adults. On the one hand, the people in the town are used to thrift , even if the ticket is already very cheap, if you spend it for a long time, it is not completely stress-free, and the women in the town are too embarrassed to wear swimsuits.

"You said, how about having a women's day in our swimming pool?" Ma Congrong didn't rush to leave after eating at noon this day, and chatted with everyone at Niuwangzhuang.

"That's good. When you get it out, I'll get a card too." An old lady said.

"Why, are you embarrassed to go if you don't hold a special women's day?" Ma Congrong is quite familiar with Niuwangzhuang, and he can talk to the old people in the yard.

"Hi, the main reason is that everyone is too familiar." The old lady laughed.

"Besides, even if we want to go, the man still doesn't agree. I didn't say that the men in our town are really behind. Our family has gone several times by himself, so he won't let me go."

"That's right, someone in our town just went there a few days ago, hey, what's going on behind my back."

"There are also those who say that she has a bad figure, hahaha."

"You have to be in good shape to go to the swimming pool. How about acting on TV? Those two hundred and five!"

"Oh, it's time to sprinkle water." Just as he was talking, one of the old men took out a mobile phone from his pocket, squinted his eyes, and stood up quickly.

"I'm with you." Another old man was with her, and the two of them went into a warehouse after talking.

"What kind of water do you sprinkle?" Ma Congrong asked.Recently, Martin Liang received an invitation to go abroad to attend an academic conference. The weather was cold, and the old man of the Ma family didn't often come to the courtyard. He hadn't heard about the peanut buds yet.

"Isn't Lao Zhou incubating peanut sprouts? I heard that the hatched peanuts cost 15 yuan per catty, and one catty of peanuts can get two or three catties of sprouts. Hey, he said that if they sell well, they will not sell peanuts in the future, just sell them." Peanut buds." It's just a peanut bud, and it's not a commercial secret, the old people said casually.

"Peanut buds? Are they delicious?" Ma Congrong raised his eyebrows.

"It's delicious. Didn't I roll the pancake a few days ago? It's tender, crispy, and very fragrant. It's much better than bean sprouts."

"Isn't that better than bean sprouts? It costs 15 yuan a catty."

"Then are you willing to buy it every day? It's not bad to eat it once during the Chinese New Year."

"You must buy it during Chinese New Year."

"..."

Boss Ma rubbed his chin, or how to say that the first thing to do is to be close to the water, tsk tsk, being close is an advantage, then he took out his mobile phone and called Romon.

"I heard you've been making peanut sprouts lately?"

"The news is quite well-informed." Romon said with a smile on the other end of the phone.

"Get some for me to taste first." He definitely wouldn't buy it if he hadn't tried it.

"When the first batch of peanut sprouts come out, I will give you a few catties first."

"If this time is suitable, you can supply me with more goods." The end of the year is approaching, and this time is the best time to make money.

"I'm afraid it won't be too many." Romon said.

"What's wrong? Didn't you plant a lot of peanuts this year?" Ma Congrong heard that it was wrong.

"A few days ago, Hong Kong had already placed an order for me. The goods were delivered twice a week, and each time the order was a lot. The price was quite suitable, so I agreed."

"It's so far away, it won't be damaged if it's transported there?"

"I pinched the roots and transported them there in a fresh-keeping car. I'll take a trip first and try. Generally, there should be no problem. If it really doesn't work, then I have to forget it."

"I didn't say it, you did it too unjustly, we are old friends, you didn't tell me about the peanut sprouts, why did you talk to them first?" Boss Ma quit .

"I didn't say that." Lao Zhou was wronged.

"You didn't say how did they know?"

"Then how do I know?"

"Hey! It's an evil door!"
