Back to the era with space materials

Si Ningning straightened her neck in dissatisfaction, "I haven't said anything yet!"

"Needless to say, I know what you are thinking." Huo Lang glanced at Si Ningning lazily, then opened and closed his thin lips and uttered two words, "No,"

"snort."

Si Ningning let out an angry "hum" and angrily ate the bun in her hand.

The buns are actually not that. They were made by Si Ningning in the space before.

I originally planned to bake buns, but the dough didn't rise well, and the finished product was browned in color. It looked good, but the inside was as tight and hard as a dead-faced steamed bun.

Si Ningning took two dry bites and chewed for a long time before swallowing, almost choking during the process.

Ignoring his anger, Si Ningning turned her head and looked at Huo Lang, who was eating at a steady pace, "Will it taste terrible?"

Si Ningning didn't ask the right question. If she had asked someone else, they might have responded with something like "Well, it's a bit dry", but she was asking Huo Lang.

Who is Holang?

As a person who can easily swallow tree bark, when eating such serious food into my mouth, I will naturally not say the word "unpalatable".

"No, it's quite delicious." Huo Lang shook his head calmly, then lowered his head and picked up the old military kettle hanging in front of him, raising his neck and "gu dong gu dong" with two mouthfuls.

"..."

Si Ningning was speechless for a while and vaguely understood something in her heart.

After lunch, Huo Lang originally wanted to take Si Ningning around, but to his surprise, Si Ningning couldn't bear to part with the nuts all over the floor. "It's just that I didn't know there was such a thing. It's right in front of me now. It would be a pity not to pick it up."

?”

Even if he didn't read the words "wild and pure", the rich quality alone made Si Ningning feel that he would be doing himself a disservice if he didn't buy more.

Holang didn't have many ideas.

The purpose of taking Si Ningning into the mountains was to make her happy and relax her. Since picking up nuts can make Si Ningning happy, why should she hesitate?

Just pick it up and that's it.

The two of them took off the basket, and the other carried the basket and scattered to pick up nuts. During the period, they inevitably chatted:

"There are also wild persimmon trees in the mountains."

"Wild persimmon tree? Where is it?"

"It's not ripe yet, and the taste is very astringent. It will take some time to frost before the sweetness develops. I'll take you to see it then."

"Okay~"

Si Ningning exhaled softly with a "hmm", her voice was lazy and filled with soft compromise.

Huo Lang then chatted with her about something else:

"It's going to be busy soon. The soybean field from before has to be harvested. Do you want to come with me then?"

"It's really hard for me to say this now. When Team 7 comes back, the literacy class will probably start. I don't know if I will be able to have some free time by then."

"Then let's take a look first and then we'll talk about it. Anyway, everything depends on your arrangements."

"Um!"

"You have to use a millstone to grind acorn powder. Is there one at the Educated Youth Point?"

"I didn't pay close attention to these. I'll look for them when I go back. Maybe there are some." Si Ningning said seriously.

Yes, that means no.

A millstone is not a small thing. If you really want to have one, you can find it anywhere.

Huo Lang's heart was clear, but he didn't know what Si Ningning was thinking at this time.

Anyway, there is a wall-breaking machine in the space, and it doesn’t matter whether there is a grinding disc or not.

Even if there was one, Si Ningning wouldn't know how to use it. It would be tiring and troublesome.

"I'll be free tomorrow. I'll look around to see if there's any suitable stone. I'll chisel a small one for you then." Huo Lang said, standing up and putting his hands together to draw a stone with a diameter the same as a plate.

Come circle.

Si Ningning shook her head. She originally wanted to say no, but then she thought that if there was no millstone in the educated youth spot, she would really need something to cover her, so she nodded: "Okay."

Moyo picked up nuts for more than two hours, until the big basket in Huo Lang's hand was filled to the brim. Si Ningning finally wiped the sweat from his forehead, waved his hand with mercy and called Huo Lang home:

"Okay, let's go home! I can't fit it anymore!"

"Okay." Huo Lang nodded in response, took the small bamboo basket from Si Ningning's hand, poured all the nuts in it into the big basket, and returned the bamboo basket to Si Ningning. Then he bent down, carried the big basket, and carried the big basket.

Follow Si Ningning and walk back.

When the corresponding season comes, there will be everything in the mountains, including flowers, wild fruits, nuts, etc. The further in, the more you will find.

Si Ningning and Huo Lang picked up a large basket full of nuts in the mountains. On their way home, they found many orange-yellow ripe golden cherry blossoms among the thorn bushes.

In Si Ningning's words, it means that you will never take advantage of someone who is immoral, and you will never let go of something like this that has no owner in the mountains and is delivered to your door for free.

Especially a few months ago, when I spent a long time digging around the thorn bush and picking dozens or twenty golden cherry blossoms, when I came across a large orange-yellow ripe golden cherry blossom in front of me, Si Ningning was really excited.

I couldn't bear to leave.

Making a decisive decision, Si Ningning pulled Huo Lang to a halt and said, "Sit down and rest for a while, and wait for me. My backpack is still empty, so pick some more!"

After saying that, he let go of Huo Lang's hand, holding the bamboo basket and bending forward to throw the golden cherry blossoms into the basket one by one.

Most of the moisture in the ripe golden cherry berries has been lost, and the small thorns on the surface that were still a little prickly are not worth mentioning at all. When Si Ningning picked the golden cherry berries, a piece of the small thorn on the surface was crushed as soon as he pinched them with his fingers.

Not to mention that it hurt my hand, it didn't even itch.

Huo Lang put the basket aside, and after making sure it wouldn't tip over and spill out, he stood up and followed Si Ningning to help pick it, "What are you picking this for?"

The golden cherry blossoms here in the third team are called prickly pears. They are sweet and can be eaten. When the ripe season comes, many girls and boys rummage around in front of and behind the house and on the field ridges to pick and eat them.

Huo Lang knew that prickly pears could be eaten, and he knew that Si Ningning must also know that prickly pears could be eaten. However, based on his understanding of Si Ningning, if Si Ningning was so keen on picking prickly pears, there should be other ways to eat them or

usage.

It has to be said that Holang's guess was right.

On the way to pick golden cherry blossoms, Si Ningning looked sideways at him and smiled sweetly, and began to conduct detailed science popularization:

"Golden cherry tree is a good thing. It is a kind of Chinese herbal medicine and it has many functions."

"It can be used to treat diarrhea, spleen deficiency, gay men tonify the kidneys, and lesbians to nourish qi and blood."

Huo Lang nodded knowingly, and then the question he casually asked made Si Ningning temporarily confused:

"Do you know much about Chinese herbal medicine? It seems that you have always paid close attention to this aspect."

Not only in terms of Chinese herbal medicine, but also in things like dyeing cloth, breeding, etc., Si Ningning seems to be really omnipotent, he can figure out everything, and he knows everything.

"I don't know much about it..." Si Ningning scratched his forehead and considered it for a moment, then raised his lips for a while and raised a bright smile, "It's just that the book is quite complicated, and some things have been seen in the book, and you remember the last time you

Are you going to take care of your comrade at the banquet?"

Huo Lang nodded, "Yeah."

Si Ningning continued: "I visited Academician Liang very frequently in those days, probably because I became familiar with him. Academician Liang gave me a notebook, which contained a lot of agricultural-related knowledge. I read it when I came back.

The content is very interesting, and I’m still thinking about practicing it one by one when I have some free time in the future.”

There is a lot of knowledge related to agriculture, not just livestock, seeds and seedlings.

Huo Lang knew about Si Ningning's visit to Liang Qinghong and had made arrangements in advance.

Moreover, when he came back from Beijing and rushed over to find Si Ningning, Si Ningning had just come out of Liang Qinghong's place, holding a notebook with an old cover in his arms.

Of course, Huo Lang would not doubt it, and immediately nodded and promised, "Okay, you can arrange the time later, call me at any time, and I will bring you over again."

"Um!"

There were a lot of golden cherry blossoms along the roadside. Si Ningning and Huo Lang picked them together, and soon a whole basket was filled.

Si Ningning turned the bamboo basket to her waist, took Huo Lang's hand, and the two started their journey home again.

I was chattering along the way, and when I got back to the educated youth spot, it happened to be four o'clock in the afternoon.

Before he got busy in the past two days, Huo Lang had to catch up on the progress of the rabbit cage, so he couldn't stay long.

Si Ningning knew this and pulled off the door rope. After entering the house, he quickly found a big basket and replaced the basket on Huo Lang's back. "I can do the rest myself. You can go back!"

Huo Lang wiped his sweat and stood at the door with an empty basket in his hand. He looked at Si Ningning with a casual look and said, "I will come over to patrol later."

"I know!" Si Ningning bent her eyes and smiled.

After Huo Lang left, Si Ningning slowly stopped smiling. Even so, she was in a good mood, so her pretty little face still had a gentle and gentle smile.

After going to the kitchen to check the chicken that had been cooked last night and finding that it had not changed in flavor, Si Ningning brought two more buckets of cool well water into the house to replace the water in the basin and bucket.

Then he cooked the chicken. Seeing that the sunlight outside the house had shifted to the field ridge in the distance, and the light at the door was much darker, Si Ningning took the basket and sieve for drying radish slices outside the door.

Last night, I used salt to remove most of the water from the radish slices, and after drying them in the sun during the day, the radish slices are ready to be put into the jar.

Si Ningning moved out the jar and just compacted a layer into it when she suddenly thought of Jiang Yue and Song Xiaoyun saying they wanted to learn how to pickle radish slices. She paused and thought for a long time before finally moving the jar, basket and sieve aside.

I plan to wait until Jiang Yue and Song Xiaoyun come back later to continue the next steps.

Si Ningning dragged the basket of nuts to a brightly lit area at the door, took a large bowl, dug out an old hatchet from the educated youth spot, and sat at the door, slowly pounding it.

However, before she could smash out a few nuts, she remembered another thing.

With a "clang" sound, Si Ningning put down the hatchet and ran into the kitchen to work for a while.

Heat water to blanch the chicken. After frying, put the water into a jar, then push the jar to simmer with the sparks in the stove.

Although the temperature is not high in this season, Si Ningning still sweated a lot after finishing this task.

Wiping the sweat from his forehead, Si Ningning washed his hands, waved his hands and sat outside the door to continue cracking nuts.

During this period, Si Ningning thought funnyly: According to the work assignment, she should have been the most leisurely person in the entire educated youth camp, but now with all the miscellaneous busy work every day, she has become the busiest person in the educated youth camp.

Si Ningning laughed helplessly as he thought about it, and silently comforted himself: "Hard work makes people rich!"

Then there was another dense "ding-ding-ding-ding".

It got dark early, and the sky had already darkened around six o'clock. By that time, Si Ningning had already knocked out a bowl full of nuts, and Xu Shuhua and his party came back one after another.

Si Ningning inserted the hatchet into the large basket of nuts, stood up with the sea bowl and passed it forward, "These nuts haven't been completely dehydrated yet, so they are considered fresh nuts. I don't know if you are used to eating them. Try some."

Taste it."

Xu Shuhua and the others grabbed a few grains each, threw them into their mouths and started chewing, "It's crunchy and the taste is unbearable, but it's quite fun to chew."

"Hey Ningning, where did you get this?" Song Xiaoyun went into the room and hung the hat on the wall, then turned around and asked Si Ningning.

"Picked up in the mountains." Si Ningning answered truthfully. She was afraid that some girls would be led astray by her words and run into the mountains unaware of the danger. She added in hindsight, "You have to be taken with them when you go to the mountains.

The mountains here are big, so if you get lost and go around for a while, it’s not a big deal, but you won’t encounter any wild beasts.”

Speak clearly. If Xu Shuhua and the others also want to go to the mountains, they will probably remember her words and will definitely find a guide before setting off.

The people who can guide the way are all native members of the team. They know very well which places can and cannot go in the mountains. When the time comes, they don't have to worry about Xu Shuhua and the others encountering danger when entering the mountains.

"Hey! I remembered it." Song Xiaoyun responded with a smile.

While talking, Jiang Yue lay on the table and began to stretch her hand towards Si Ningning, "It tastes really good, give me some more~"

Si Ningning slapped Jiang Yue's hand mercilessly, took two steps back with the bowl in hand, raised her chin towards the big basket at the door, and said: "There are a lot of nuts, go there to eat them"

Knock it out yourself, the hatchet is in the basket."

Jiang Yue puffed her lips, "Stingy!"

"Cracking nuts is a wasteful job. Look at my hands. Can you bear it?" Si Ningning freed up a hand to show Jiang Yue.

On the palm of Si Ningning's palm, where the tiger's mouth corresponds to the index finger, two crystal clear blisters bulged there. Just by looking at it, Jiang Yue knew how painful it was.

Jiang Yue shuddered, then walked toward the door with her lips pursed, "You are so tender-skinned! Don't you know you won't do the job that you can't do?"

"Otherwise, you can ask someone to help you!" Jiang Yue squatted at the door to take over the work that Si Ningning had just done, and began to knock on the door.

She didn't hear any movement in the main room, so she turned around with a "tsk" sound, "What are you doing? You don't have any eyesight at all. Are you getting a bowl?"

Si Ningning brought the nuts into the house, turned around and took another small bowl and put it at Jiang Yue's feet.

She squatted beside Jiang Yue, folded her hands on her knees and looked at Jiang Yue with bright eyes, "What are you doing? Do you want to knock it for me?"

Jiang Yue glanced at her awkwardly, turned away and cracked the nuts "duangduangduang", while saying firmly: "You are overthinking, I am knocking them for myself, don't you know? I like to eat nuts in big mouths."

Eat it with big mouthfuls! After a while, the bowl will be full, and I will grab it and eat it!"
