Seeing that he was frightened, Shen Yizhi took the opportunity to say, "Don't run to the waterside anymore. Just play with your friends in the rice field."
The rice field is the place where rice is threshed in the village.
Although there are all kinds of strange and supernatural things in this era, and those "immortals" fly around, the productivity is not that high, and ordinary people still live a hard life.
After the rice is harvested, it is spread on the rice field. A stone mill is tied to a cow, and the cow is led around the rice field in circles. The stone mill behind it also rolls over the rice grains again and again, grinding the grains off the rice ears. The rice is then raised to dust and dried in the mortar. After going through all the processes, grains of white rice can be obtained.
The whole process is tedious and laborious.
After the millet is ground off the rice ears and dried, it becomes straw. The straw is bundled together to form a haystack one person high and exposed to the sun. It becomes an excellent material for laying roofs, weaving straw ropes and straw sandals, or using it to start a fire.
For children, haystacks are multifunctional mazes.
Children can use it as a spring bed to bounce on, use it as a slide to slide down, or play hide-and-seek in it...
In summary, the rice field is a natural playground for country children who have few toys.
Out of fear of water ghosts, Sanwa nodded and agreed.
There are indeed several bodies of water in front of and behind Lijiazhuang Village. Not to mention the small river about seven or eight meters wide in front of the village, there are at least five or six ponds, large and small, with dense weeds and thick silt. Adults may not be able to climb out if they fall into them, let alone children.
In order to prevent a child from falling into the water and drowning, Shen Yizi went to various water sources after his shift and set up a formation by the water.
The function of the formation is similar to that of a net. When someone falls in, it can catch the person, and she can also sense it at the same time.
In this way, even if there really is a water ghost, it will not be able to cause trouble.
While setting up the formation, Shen Yizi caught a lot of lobsters and kept them all in the space.
She also dug a pond in the space to raise some aquatic products. She could catch them whenever she wanted and drop a drop of spiritual spring water into the pond from time to time. The aquatic products would then jump around and their meat would become more and more tender.
That night, Shen Yizhi cooked a big pot of braised prawns, added cubed cucumbers and quail eggs.
The cucumbers were stewed until soft and soaked up the soup. A bite of them was spicy and refreshing, and it was a delicious dish to eat with rice! But the best part was the lobsters, which were very tasty.
Shen Yizi picked one up directly, broke off a shrimp claw, put it in his mouth and sucked it to get rid of the soup on it, then skillfully bit the claw open, revealing the white and tender meat inside.
The lobster she picked was very large, and the meat in its claws was as thick as her thumb. It couldn't be better! In the past, she would have swallowed the meat in one gulp.
But now, before eating any delicious food, the first thing she thought of was Qing Bao, and she made up her mind to put the piece of meat to Qing Bao's mouth.
Qingbao has always accepted all food, of course, the prerequisite is that the food has to be delicious.
When Qing Bao put the meat into his mouth, his eyes lit up like little light bulbs. Without Shen Yizi's advice, he quickly grabbed one and started eating.
Shen Yizhi demonstrated to him while eating.
Seeing the mother and daughter enjoying their meal and smelling the spicy aroma, how could the others resist? They all joined the battle.
Following Shen Yizhi's example, he ate the food without any reservation.
However, it was their first time eating shrimp, and their proficiency and skills were no match to hers.
But under her guidance, I finally managed to get the meat.
As soon as the meat entered their mouths, the expressions of several people brightened.
There is such delicious food in the world!
I felt like I had missed out on a billion taels of silver! I ate one after another.
Crayfish is really addictive, the more you eat, the more you enjoy it.
In addition, Shen Yizhi had kept these lobsters in the spiritual spring for a while, so the meat became more tender and fresh, and he couldn't stop eating them! The large pot of braised prawns that was originally piled up to the top was rapidly decreasing at a speed visible to the naked eye due to the unremitting efforts of Shen Yizhi and others.
But the number of shrimp shells in front of each person is increasing.
In the end, the whole pot of lobsters was finished by several people.
Not even the cucumbers and quail eggs were left.
Qing Bao even ate the garlic inside.
The garlic heads were stewed into a powdery state and tasted a bit like potatoes and yams. Seeing Qing Bao eating it with gusto, Shen Yizi couldn't help but try one, and it surprisingly tasted very good.
The meal of braised prawns and chilled fruit wine lasted until the moon rose high in the sky.
Although Han Baoluo was so full that she couldn't walk anymore, she still felt unsatisfied. "Sister Zhizhi, this braised prawn is so delicious. After I leave, I won't be able to eat it anymore."
It wasn't just the braised prawns, there were so many other delicious dishes. She couldn't help feeling heartbroken when she thought that she wouldn't be able to eat them all in the future.
The pain is beyond words.
Han Baoluo looked at Shen Yizhi with tears in her eyes, and her face was already a little drunk, "Sister Zhizhi, I really want to pack you up and take you away."
He burped, lay down on the table and closed his eyes.
Shen Yizi found it funny and asked Kun San to carry her into the house.
She cast a cleaning spell on the mess on the table, and instantly, the tabletop became clean and tidy. Qianwu automatically took the cups, plates and bowls into the kitchen.
"Baby, let's go take a shower and go to bed." Shen Yizi picked up Qingbao unexpectedly and ran to the backyard.
Qingbao let out a cheerful giggle.
In the middle of the night, Han Baoluo woke up because of thirst.
Her head was still a little dizzy, and she didn't open her eyes. She just fumbled on the low table in front of the window with her eyes closed, but couldn't find the cup of water. She had to sit up, walk weakly to the table, pour a glass of water and gulp it down.
Having finally quenched her thirst, she felt relaxed and was about to climb into bed to continue sleeping. She glanced outside and discovered that the moonlight tonight was quite nice, with a silver plate-like moon hanging in the light blue sky, peaceful and pure.
She leaned against the window frame and stared blankly for a while, and suddenly a black shadow passed through the moon.
She opened her eyes wide and found that the black shadow was a huge bird, and there seemed to be a person on the bird.
The camera zooms in.
The big bird was a crimson three-headed bird, its gorgeous wings gliding silently through the air.
The person on its back had one leg bent casually, the other leg hanging in the air, his face supported by his arms, his eyelids slightly drooping, revealing a careless and lazy look.
