With a Door In Mind

Zhou Xiaochuan and the others took their things and went back happily.

A few people walked and talked about the situation on their side.

Feng Yue said in a low voice: "That family is really pitiful, the three children are as skinny as bones."

Zhang Jingjing also nodded beside her, "Yes, Sister Aiju is really suffering."

Zhou Fenglan sighed at the side when she heard the words, "It's better for you, the house where Qinqin and I live, an old lady who can't move very much, and two little girls. I really don't know how they live came."

"The oldest one is only 9 years old! The youngest one is only 6 years old. You don't even know it. The little girl is so sensible that it hurts my heart."

Zhou Xiaochuan thought to himself when he heard the words, Captain Zhao really did.

No wonder he didn't wait for his own people to buy salt and pickle it, so that the meat would have to be eaten as soon as possible.

Cannot be stored.

That's pretty good.

In some production teams, the rations are deducted directly, and you have nothing to do.

But this is also very good, at least there is no need for a group of people to surround themselves in a cave and sleep on a big kang. .

When I returned to Xiaocao's house.

I saw Xiaocao was holding a reed brush, cleaning the dust on the stone mill there.

Zhou Xiaochuan came over with his things, and said with a smile, "Xiaocao, what are you doing?"

The other party smiled when he heard the words, "I'll clean this up, don't you want to grind the mill later?"

Hearing his words, Zhou Xiaochuan froze for a moment.

It was only when he thought of the food he had received that he came to his senses.

He also plans to secretly exchange the food in the space when he has time.

This way you don't have to grind on this mill.

It seems that this time it won't work.

Zhou Xiaochuan patted his head and said with a smile: "Okay, don't bother,

I'll do it myself in a while. "

Xiaocao let out a soft voice when she heard the words.

Seeing this, Zhou Xiaochuan glanced inside, "I don't have anything in the pot over there, can I borrow something from your house to use?"

Hearing his words, Xiaocao turned around and went into the house, and came out after a while.

"Grandma's meal is ready, you can cook now."

Seeing this, Zhou Xiaochuan followed in.

I saw that the old lady was cleaning the pot with a loofah, and finally got a flutter of water to clean the bottom of the pot again.

"Little comrade, you cook."

Zhou Xiaochuan took a look and found that the other party's two bowls contained only some corn flour and a little bit of black beans.

Porridge cooked together.

Seeing this, Zhou Xiaochuan smiled, "Okay, thank you Grandma Miao. Just call me Xiaochuan from now on, don't call me comrades."

This name was told to him by Xiaocao.

Grandma Miao smiled when she heard the words, "That's fine, I'll call you Xiao Chuan from now on."

After finishing speaking, he said to Zhao Youlin next to him, "Xiaocao, go out to eat."

Then the two went out with their rice bowls in hand.

Seeing this, Zhou Xiaochuan came to the stove and took a look. There was an old-fashioned blower box next to it.

It is estimated that it is used for blowing and smoking.

There are not many firewood next to it, and most of them are small branches, not big pieces of wood.

Don't worry about it now, let's talk about it after using it.

I didn't need to do it at first, but I feel like I should learn to do it, otherwise it will be embarrassing when someone comes over next time.

Stuff the firewood and light the fire.

When the bellows is not moving, the smoke does not escape at all. directly in the house.

With a thought, the bellows moved by itself.

I checked the water tank, but I still haven't used the water.

Use a gourd to scoop up half a pot of water and put it into the space, and then take out a half pot of water from the space and put it into the pot.

Get about a catty of mutton, wash it, cut it into small pieces, put it in the pot and cook it.

The rest is ready to marinate and eat slowly.

Otherwise, it would be too extravagant to eat up two or three catties in one meal.

Pretend to go back to your side to get something.

When they came out, the two figures of Grandma Miao had disappeared.

Probably went to chat.

But he still pretended to take his backpack.

Put some spices in it.

Then he used his mind to push the bellows to continue working.

There is a bellows, and the fire is very hot.

After a while the water boiled.

Half an hour later, the mutton soup turned milky white.

After tasting it, I feel that the taste is not bad.

I made half of it with my own lunch box, and put the rest in the pot.

And put the white steamed buns given by the commune today on the bowl next to the pot.

It's been a long time for this steamed bun, and it's a bit dry.

Not saying anything else, but only this can be explained. Other things cannot be explained.

Then he returned to himself.

He took out some vegetables and rice from the space, and began to eat.

When he finished his meal, no one came back.

Next he has to grind flour and cornmeal, otherwise eating will be a problem in the future.

After cleaning the stone mill outside, he put the wheat on the mill and began to grind it.

At the beginning, he was afraid that if he used his thoughts to do it too quickly, it would be too fake. Then he pushed for a while.

But after turning the stone mill for a long time, he felt dizzy to death.

Forget it, let's use our thoughts.

Half an hour later, he had ground ten catties of flour out.

Then prepare to collect the wheat.

At this time, Xiaocao brought her grandma back with an empty bowl.

Seeing Zhou Xiaochuan's actions, he smiled and said, "Brother Xiaochuan, what are you doing? Grinding flour?"

"Yeah? What's the matter?"

Grandma Miao shook her head lightly when she heard the words, "It's nothing. I thought you urbanites are not used to grinding mills, so I'm going to let Xiaocao make it for you tomorrow."

Seeing this, Zhou Xiaochuan smiled, "I am also from the countryside, I grew up in the countryside when I was young."

This is a bit of contempt for him. But think about it, people who haven't pushed it probably can't do it.

He collected the flour and put it in his flour bag.

It's only past five o'clock now, and it will be around seven o'clock when it gets dark.

Go out for a walk in a while.

Zhou Xiaochuan saw that Xiaocao was about to enter the house, and said with a smile: "Xiaocao, I left some food for you, you can eat it later."

Xiaocao was stunned for a moment when she heard the words, and hurried back to her room. Opened the lid.

Seeing this, Grandma Miao said to Xiaocao, "Put the vegetables over and leave them for him to eat tomorrow."

Although Xiaocao was very greedy, after hearing what grandma said, she still used a bowl to fill out the mutton.

By the way, even the steamed buns were brought over.

"Brother Xiaochuan, you can save this for tomorrow." After speaking, he entered Zhou Xiaochuan's room and put it in the dirt grid.

Zhou Xiaochuan looked at what the other party was going to say.

I saw Xiaocao said with a blank face: "Brother Xiaochuan, next time you take a bath, don't pour it out. You can give it to the chickens or water the vegetables."

Hearing his words, Zhou Xiaochuan was a little embarrassed, and he was used to pouring out the water after taking a shower.

Forget that there is a severe shortage of water here.

And this water has been stored by the grass for so long.

It must be painful to see.

Seeing this, Zhou Xiaochuan said: "Okay, I will pay attention next time, I am not used to it for the first time."

Hearing what he said, Xiaocao smiled and nodded.

He turned and went back to the next room.

Zhou Xiaochuan then brought over the mutton and steamed buns, "Grandma Miao, it's so hot, it will taste good tomorrow. Let Xiaocao eat it."

Grandma Miao said, "It's okay, the cave won't be too hot at night, and the smell won't be too strong."

Zhou Xiaochuan smiled awkwardly upon hearing this.

This made him say no matter what, if he said any more, the people in the city were elite.

Besides, in this era, even in Kyoto, it is normal to eat meat if it has a taste.

He could only grit his teeth and say, "Grandma Miao, if you don't eat it, it will taste bad tomorrow, so I can only pour it down."

"this……"

Grandma Miao hesitated a little now.

real or fake?

Are the people in the city doing so well?

"Really. Grandma Miao, I really don't want to eat it if it's rotten. Besides, I will live here in the future, and there will be many troubles. If you are so polite, how will I live in the future."

Grandma Miao hesitated for a moment, then nodded, "That's fine."

Then he said to Xiaocao next to him, "Xiaocao, stay here for lunch tomorrow."

Seeing this, Zhou Xiaochuan stopped persuading him to eat it now.

After knowing his own room, he began to make the bed.

He opened his own bag, spread it on the kang mat, and took out some seasonings.

Now the house still lacks an oil lamp, a water tank and firewood.

Otherwise, I still can't cook by myself.

After finishing it, seeing that it was still early, he went out. Ready to go for a walk around.

He wanted to see the well.

He will stay here until Xiaomi graduates from junior high school and enters high school, then he can go back.

Therefore, the most important problem at present is not food, but water.
