Chapter 120 Every grain of hard work

This time, Baishui, Baijin, Baiyue, and Yuanxiang all participated in the seed soaking. They all admired Bai Yao's novel farming method and asked many questions.

Bai Yaodu patiently explained everything one by one and gave them an agricultural lesson.

"Sister, can't rice be grown on the grassland?" The question came from Liao Tianyue, who once lived in Xirong. The main crop grown in Xirong is not rice.

"Rice is not suitable for growing in all places. You must first determine the planting site and choose the mud suitable for rice growth. Rice prefers clay and sandy loam because such land has relatively high fertility and drainage properties! The loam in Xirong

Not suitable for growing rice”

Bai Yao answered patiently.

"Wow! Sister is so awesome! Bai Jin, please write it down!"

Bai Shui and a few girls listened attentively and even said they wanted to take notes and write them down.

"Mu Yi, you all should also write it down."

Bai Yao glanced at Mu Yi and the others behind him and said, and they respectfully answered yes.

"Then sister, what happens after you choose the soil?"

Yuan Xiang was also very active in asking questions. The three of them were all young ladies from big families and were full of curiosity about the countryside. Their eyes sparkled as they listened to Bai Yao talk about the origin of the rice they ate.

"Then we need to prepare the fields. We will plow, level, fertilize, loosen the soil and other work to prepare the selected land.

Then it’s time to sow. Now we are doing the prerequisite work for sowing. We need to soak high-quality rice seeds. After soaking them for a day, they can be evenly spread on the prepared fields. You can try it tomorrow."

It's not enough to just tell a few children, it's best to let them put it into practice. They know that food is hard to come by, and Bai Shui and Bai Jin understand it deeply! Xiao Baiyue has been unable to eat clean rice recently, so she should focus on educating them.

"Yeah!"

Several children agreed. Then Bai Yao said that the follow-up management was mainly for Mu Yi and the others to remember.

During the growth of rice, various necessary management must be carried out according to the growth stage and pest and disease conditions, such as transplanting rice seedlings, top dressing, loose soil, drinking water, etc., to ensure a good growing environment and conditions, so as to achieve abundant yields.

The growth period of rice is about 120-160 days. According to the growth stage, observe the color of the rice and the height of the rhizome to judge harvesting.

After harvesting, it must be dried and threshed for better storage.

“This way we can get the rice we usually eat!”

Bai Yao finished explaining to several children.

"Wow! It turns out to be so complicated! I never knew a bowl of rice was so rare!"

Yuan Xiang sighed, remembering that she didn’t like to eat rice at home. She often couldn’t finish a bowl of rice and threw it away. When she came to her cousin’s house, she found that none of her cousins ​​left a grain of rice, so she didn’t like it either.

Sorry, there are leftovers.

Another reason is that the rice at my cousin’s house is very fragrant! And it’s delicious! Even better than her rice! It’s soft and glutinous, with distinct grains and white color.

Chao Nannan and Liao Tianyue both understood what Yuan Xiang said.

"We didn't have white rice before. It was only after we moved to town that we could eat rice. Our family is the only one in the whole village who can eat rice! I will definitely sow seeds with Mu Yi and my brothers tomorrow! Look, sister.

Just stay on!"

After hearing this, Bai Jin said, "Now that their family can eat white rice and have clothes to wear, he never dreamed of it before. To this day, he still feels like a dream."

There is a big house, warm quilts, clothes, white rice, and books to read. These are all earned by the eldest sister. Bai Jin secretly vowed to make a lot of money for her eldest sister in the future.

"Sister! I will never waste white rice again. I will definitely not leave a grain of rice left."

Bai Yue said swornly. She suspected that the eldest sister was telling her all this because she wasted rice twice, ugh...

"It's good that you know!" Bai Yao pinched her nose.

"Okay, today you all have to go back and memorize a poem. Listen up, Li Kun, the pity farmer, it's noon on the day of hoeing, and the sweat is dripping from the soil. Who knows that every grain of food on the plate is hard work. Do you remember it?"

"Li Kun, a compassionate farmer, hoeed the fields at noon, sweat dripping from the crops in the soil. Who would have thought that every grain of rice on the plate was hard work?"

After listening to Bai Yao's words, several children recited it silently in their hearts.

"Sister, who is Li Kun?"

Bai Jin asked.

"The author of this poem, just memorize it and let you know that every grain of grain is worked hard and it is wrong to waste food!"

Bai Yao looked at his brothers and sisters carefully. Looking at Bai Yao's eyes, Xiao Baiyue, Yuan Xiang, Chao Nannan, Liao Tianyue and others felt guilty for a while.

At this moment, Yao Yi came back from the town and brought Grandpa Bai back. Bai Xiaofei also came back. After Bai Jin saw his brother, he ran over happily and told Bai Xiaofei that he had learned a poem.

He shared.

He also told Bai Xiaofei how to grow rice.

Bai Jin's memory was also good, and he could actually reproduce 99% of what Bai Yao said. This made Bai Xiaofei envious that they could listen to Bai Yao's lectures, and he also remembered what Bai Jin told him.

, and also memorized the poem.

After finishing the work of soaking seeds, he asked several little ones what they wanted to eat. They all said they wanted noodles, so Bai Yao satisfied them on the condition that they cook together.

Granny Li, Yao Xue, and Yao Xiu have always been responsible for their own and Mu Yi's dishes. Fortunately, there are two kitchens, which does not hinder everyone from eating on time.

After everyone washed their hands, they followed Bai Yao into the kitchen.

He ordered Bai Shui to take out seven or eight kilograms of flour and pour it into the newly purchased large wooden tray. Under Bai Yao's guidance, he asked Chao Nannan to slowly add water to the flour, adjust the humidity of the flour, and slowly add water. Liao Tianyue was stirring the flour on the side.

, the dough begins to become sticky, and continue to stir until the dough becomes clean, shiny and not sticky.

After stirring, Tianyue was out of breath, and Bai Yao teased and encouraged her to continue because she was the one who wanted to be a great heroine.

Bai Yao divided the dough into several pieces and placed them on the board. Bai Yao, Bai Jin, Bai Yue, and Bai Xiaofei kneaded the dough until it became elastic.

Let the dough rest for a quarter of an hour, and with a few small washed vegetables, she cut into minced meat.

After a quarter of an hour, put the dough on the board, flatten it with a stick, and then roll the dough into a long strip. Then, turn it over and roll the other end into a long strip.

The Baijin fire has been lit and the boiling water is hot. Bai Yao puts the pulled noodles into the boiling water. Bai Shui and Yuan Xiang are still trying to pull the noodles.

Bai Yao puts a large bowl of fried minced meat aside for later use.

"Sister, it smells so good, can I eat it?"

Bai Yue couldn't wait to reach out her hand, but thought of Bai Yao's previous words about being impatient and unable to eat hot tofu and retracted her hand.

"I'd better wait a little longer! I want to eat hot tofu!" Bai Yue said as she stared at the large bowl of fried minced meat in front of her.

Bai Yan nodded with satisfaction. Speaking of tofu, she hadn't eaten it for a long time. It was a pity that there was no tofu sold in Muli Town!

But she can do it. I remember there is information about making tofu in the recipe book.

When the noodles were almost cooked, Bai Yao sprinkled some green vegetables and added salt and a little soy sauce. It didn't take long before they were cooked. He took them out and added a spoonful of minced meat. He took them out facing south.

The water in another boiler boiled, and new noodles were put in, and the cooking continued. Before long, two large plates of hot noodles were ready.

Everyone took Xiaowan and happily waited for Bai Yao to share the fruits of his labor. Grandma Li also made noodles like them and they were done.

Everyone happily ate noodles...
