The more Lu Fangfang looked at it, the happier she became.
With these two bags of fertilizer, her family will have no worries about food and drink next year, and they'll even have enough for their children's food.
These days, she's been worrying about this. She's pregnant now, and next year, with her big belly, she can forget about clearing land. She's afraid there won't be enough food next year.
Now that she has fertilizer, she no longer has to worry about that.
"Zhuang Mingcheng, come here."
"What's wrong?"
Zhuang Mingcheng took two steps forward, still somewhat puzzled.
Lu Fangfang stood on tiptoe, grabbed her man's head, and kissed him fiercely.
Hmm...
"Hey girl? Hey girl? Oh my, it's broad daylight and the door's wide open, what are you two doing?"
Wang Shufen rushed in and quickly covered her eyes.
She didn't care about that, she was just afraid the young couple would be shy.
She peeked through a crack between her fingers and thought to herself that the newlyweds were quite different from the older couple.
Forehead……
"Cough cough."
Zhuang Mingcheng was a little flustered; his wife's arrival was too sudden, and he hadn't been prepared at all.
When he saw Sister Shufen arrive, his face turned as red as a monkey's bottom. He bent down and quickly picked up a roll of red paper, then strode into the house.
"Sister Shufen, you're here."
Lu Fangfang didn't mind. She wiped her mouth and pulled Sister Shufen closer.
Pointing to the two bags of fertilizer, she said happily, "Sister Shufen, look! These are two bags of ammonium bicarbonate fertilizer that my son Mingcheng brought back from the provincial chemical base. I'm sure my harvest will be good next year."
"Hiss, chemical fertilizer? Soil fertilizer powder?"
Wang Shufen squatted down, reached out and touched it, and then looked at it carefully.
"It really is fertilizer powder. I've seen it back in my hometown. If you apply for this fertilizer powder from the commune, you'll have to pay more grain quota after the autumn harvest. But this stuff helps the crops grow, so it's worth it. Everyone's scrambling to get it."
"Xiao Zhuang is really capable; he even managed to get this."
Lu Fangfang smiled, knowing that her husband hadn't squandered the money this time and had done a reliable job.
Fertilizer is a precious thing. After looking at it for a while, she and Sister Shufen each grabbed a bag and carried it into the house.
This thing is for next year, and Lu Fangfang is afraid that moisture might get inside.
She found another piece of tarpaulin, wrapped the two bags of ammonium bicarbonate fertilizer carefully without leaving any gaps, and then pushed them under the wooden bed.
"Mingcheng, what is this?"
Walking into the yard, Lu Fangfang looked at the pile of things and felt a headache coming on.
She felt that if her husband went to the provincial capital a few more times, there wouldn't be enough room in the house for all his belongings.
"Dried fruit, salted fish, and some fruit candies. Oh, and there are grapes in the basket that I bought. Wash them and have them with Sister Shufen."
Zhuang Mingcheng was sitting in the courtyard, boiling water.
The bear bile cut from the bear's body has been sitting for most of the day, so we need to process it quickly.
During his years in the Qilian Mountains, he saw bears many times and learned how to process bear bile. This stuff can't just be left to dry in the wind.
He lifted the lid and glanced at the water, finding no oil or grease, and nodded in satisfaction.
When processing bear bile, you can't touch oil; you have to use clean water. Before lighting the fire, he scrubbed the pot several times and took another look before he felt at ease.
After a while, the water in the pot boiled. He picked up his wife's military satchel, turned around, and called to his wife.
"Fangfang, come and help me, my arm is injured."
Lu Fangfang had just tidied up the things in the yard and brought them into the house.
Hearing her husband's words, she quickly walked over. "What's wrong?"
“Hold the rope attached to the bear gallbladder and slowly lower it into the pot until it is submerged in water. Then lift it out. The bear gallbladder needs to be boiled in water.”
"Mingcheng, will this work?"
Zhuang Mingcheng nodded and continued, "That's how it's done here. The bear bile will deflate immediately after being soaked in water. Then you can hang it in a shady place..."
Wang Shufen, who was listening nearby, also came over out of curiosity.
"After a while, the bear bile dipped in hot water will slowly swell up again. Then you dip it in hot water again and repeat this process until the bear bile stops swelling up. Then the preparation is complete."
“The state-run pharmacies in the county only accept bear bile processed in this way. If it’s not processed this way, the grade it’s graded is not high, and it’s worth a lot of money.”
Upon hearing this, Lu Fangfang stopped saying anything.
She picked up the bear bile from her bag and slowly placed it into the boiling water.
Just as her husband had said, the bear bile immediately stopped burning when it was put into boiling water.
"That works, bring it up quickly."
Lu Fangfang gripped the rope and hurriedly lifted it up.
Looking at the bear bile that had been suppressed, she was amazed. It was truly miraculous. She wondered how her ancestors had come up with this method of preparation.
Looking around, she found a shady spot and hung the bear bile there.
"Bang bang bang".
"Sister Shufen, could you open the door for me? My hands aren't clean."
"I'll go take a look."
Wang Shufen turned around and walked to the gate of the courtyard. As soon as she pushed the door open, she saw Daya and Tiedan leading a group of children, gathered in front of the gate.
"Mom? What are you doing here?"
"Mom, I heard from others that Aunt and Uncle brought back a really good bear. Please let me in to see it."
The little ones peeked through the crack in the door and saw a huge thing covered in black fur.
The child exclaimed in surprise, becoming even more curious.
"Go away, go play somewhere else. If you see us, aren't you afraid you'll dream about it at night?"
"Mother, please let us see it, just one look."
"No, no."
Wang Shufen was afraid of scaring the little ones, so she didn't even let them in the door and chased them away directly.
