Chapter 10 Big Harvest
Jia Yi quickly ran to the sheep shed and saw that the staff looked heavy.
"Oh, it's difficult to give birth. The ewe is only halfway through giving birth." The person who delivered the baby was an old man. It looked like he was a veterinarian.
The old man turned around and saw the children outside.
"Little kids, it won't be suitable for you to watch from now on." After saying that, he came over and closed the door.
After a while, the door opened again.
I saw the old grandfather walking out helplessly, shaking his head.
"What a pity these three lambs are. They were all born prematurely and will not survive."
When Jia Yi's classmates heard this, all the female classmates started to cry. Well, a few of the male classmates also cried.
Jia Yi quickly ran into the sheep house. The ewe's belly was already covered with straw.
Two of the lambs were breathing weakly, and one was probably stuck and could no longer feel his breathing.
"Forget it, just bury these three..."
"Well..." Jia Yi replied in a low voice, then wrapped the little lamb in straw and ran away.
Ran Qiuye was anxiously trying to comfort his classmates, while the farm workers were sighing, and no one noticed anything unusual.
Jia Yi took the opportunity to run into the woods, enter the Taoyuan space, take some spring water and apply it on the lips of the three sheep. After drying it, apply it again and repeat.
Five minutes later, all three lambs were breathing steadily. They were all alive, which was great.
Manipulating space creates a good living environment for the little sheep.
After leaving Taoyuan, he pretended to be serious and blended in with the students. It seemed that no one noticed him.
"Classmates, we are going to grind beans today. I will take you to the mill now."
Uncle Wang cheered up and came over to greet the students to continue their visit.
When we arrived at the mill, it was a donkey pulling a mill. Uncle Wang stepped forward to hold the blindfolded donkey, comforted it, and then asked the students to come over and take a closer look, and asked everyone to personally add soaked soybeans into the narrow mouth of the stone mill.
An hour later, Uncle Wang took the students to the kitchen. The temperature here was even higher. Several large pots were boiling soy milk, as well as prepared tofu, dried tofu, etc.
"You're all hungry, let's have a bowl of tofu nao each..." Uncle Wang said considerately.
He said while eating.
"If you want to make tofu, you must first soak the soybeans, and then grind the soybeans into soy milk. The soy milk must be completely cooked. If you see something just bubbling around the pot, it is not yet cooked. It is poisonous and cannot be eaten. Like
This pot is boiled only when it is all bubbling, and it will be cooked after a short while."
Uncle Wang also took a bite of tofu pudding. He continued: "After the soy milk is cooked and cooled, brine is added. After solidification, it becomes the tofu pudding we eat now."
Uncle Wang finished the meal in two or three bites and wiped his mouth with his hand.
"Then put the tofu in gauze, mash it and wrap it, then cover it with a wooden board and add stones on top. After pressing it for half an hour, it becomes this kind of water tofu. Just like this piece, look at it, have you seen it before?
The same."
Ran Qiuye and his classmates were watching. The students had already finished eating, and the bowls and spoons in their hands had been washed and put back.
"This piece with more stones is for making dried tofu. After pressing for an hour, no water can come out. You see, this is white dried bean curd. I use soy sauce and spices to make brine. After boiling, add dried tofu and simmer for half an hour to make a common sauce.
It's done." Uncle Wang processed the tofu and dried beans.
"Okay, it's lunch time. I'll take you to the cafeteria to eat."
After that, he led the students to the cafeteria. The students happily discussed...
"I don't know what to eat for lunch today..."
"I wonder if there is meat..."
"Hey, it smells so good..."
"It tastes like meat..."
"Very good…"
The classmates were talking a lot, Jia Yi smelled the fragrance, this is... his expression changed, and he thought of something.
Is this to verify the law of true fragrance?
"Uncle Wang, what kind of meat is this? It smells so good..."
"Yeah yeah…"
"Oh, the ewe didn't die just now, so I made mutton stewed with radish..."
"Ah, the ewe is so pitiful, how can you eat it?"
"But, it smells so good..."
The scene suddenly became quiet, and the students' faces became tangled.
Soon, we lined up to prepare rice. The food looked good. Each person had a large white flour steamed bun, three or four pieces of mutton, and a dozen or so radishes. There was also a large pot of boiled cabbage, a pot of multi-grain steamed buns, and a plate of spicy fried radish on the table.
Dry.
"Chinese cabbage, wowotou, and pickles can be brought by yourself. If you don't have enough..."
After Uncle Wang finished speaking, he started eating.
Jia Yi also began to eat the mutton with relish. Seeing that a female classmate beside him did not move her chopsticks, Jia Yi leaned over and said:
"Hey, this mutton is too delicious. Don't you want to eat it? If not, give it to me..."
"Jia Yi, you bastard..."
"That's right, Jia Yi, you are a big bad guy, we won't give it to you..."
"Okay, let's eat. The purpose of raising sheep is to eat meat. Let's eat them all!" Ran Qiuye said and took the lead in eating.
"Ah, this mutton is so delicious..."
"Yes, yes, this bastard Jia Yi still wants to trick us into eating meat..."
I was so full. The age of twelve or thirteen is the age when you can eat, and no student ate less. There was not enough food in a large bowl of steamed buns on the table, and it was not until another bowl was added that I was full.
Everyone's stomachs were so bulging that they couldn't walk anymore, so they had to take a short rest in the cafeteria.
In the afternoon, the disappeared Aunt Wu also came, and together with Uncle Wang, she led the students to climb to the mountain. There are many fruit trees here. Today they have to shovel out the saplings under the trees to avoid competing with the big trees for nutrients. The students' tasks
Just transport the saplings down the mountain.
Jia Yi picked the seedlings in the middle and planted them on the mountain in Taoyuan Space.
There are now 8 walnut trees, 5 persimmon trees, 4 pear trees, 7 peach trees, 3 chestnut trees, 4 orange trees, and an osmanthus tree on the mountain. Although they are still small now, I believe they will soon be
When I grow up, I won’t just eat fruits casually. I feel happy when I think about the increasingly expensive fruits in the future.
Except for the creek and the planting area, everything else is green. The Taoyuan space has become much more beautiful. Green makes people feel happy. Well, except for appearing on the head, this reflects the benefits of being single. There is no such risk.
…
After more than an hour of transportation, the students were taken to the last place, which was a hill facing the entrance. There was a live spring on the hill.
The farm built a small canal to avoid waste, which is connected to a reservoir in the middle of the valley.
The staff will salvage the debris from the ditch, and the students will be responsible for transporting the debris out of the ditch.
The canal is not deep, about 40 centimeters high and one meter wide. The water flow is not large and the water is only 20 centimeters deep. This is because the entrance to the reservoir is temporarily closed.
It was time for Jia Yi to show off his skills again. The classmates carried a dung basket in pairs, including stones, moss, water hyacinth and other water plants. The water plants were also mixed with tadpoles, small fish and shrimps, river mussels and snails.
Jia Yi always picked through it when unloading groceries and collected a lot of good things. When he was at the edge of the reservoir, he also found 6 duck eggs and 4 goose eggs in the grass. They should be eggs laid when they were kept in the reservoir.
Farm, I'm sorry, Taoyuan needs these, but it's a good thing for these eggs. After all, they all have a chance to hatch. Put them in the automatic hatching room...cave.
Taoyuan Creek finally came to life.
Today is really a fruitful day.
Soon the time came to four o'clock. Ran Qiuye called the students back to school and called their names.
When we walked to the farm gate, Aunt Wu came with a load, and then handed out a large white flour steamed bun and three steamed buns to each student for the students to eat on the way.
"Goodbye, little ones, and welcome back next time."
