Xie Yan rubbed his temples helplessly, feeling a terrible headache. He didn't know what was wrong with the child. When they went out to play, the child would step into any muddy puddle or puddles, but as soon as he stopped playing, he would become particular and clean.
Yu Yuehui shook her head as well, unable to understand. "You might say she's a clean person, but that's not necessarily true. Look at how dirty her clothes are every time she goes out."
"But if you say she's not clean, her hands are always spotless. She's also picky about what she sleeps in."
Xie Yan smiled wryly, also expressing his incomprehension.
The next day, Yu Shan got up early and rushed to the commune!
I don't know what he said, but when he came back, he brought back cement pipes and other materials.
The efficiency they put in amazed Xie Yan!
However, now that the materials have expired, Xie Yan has started to develop a biogas digester business!
What's more, the materials this time actually included a biogas generator, which surprised Xie Yan greatly.
What a wonderful surprise!
The thought of soon being able to have complete freedom in electricity use gave Xie Yan a lot of motivation.
With the help of three people arranged by his father-in-law, the biogas digester was built in just five days!
Looking at the completed biogas digester, Xie Yan's eyes were full of smiles.
He said to Yu Yuehua beside him, "Big brother, it can be put into use in about seven days."
Yu Yuehua was actually curious, after all, Xie Yan had said that once this thing was set up, it could not only grow crops, but also generate electricity.
Electricity!
That's electricity, something their village never even dared to dream of before.
He said to Xie Yan, "This thing really can generate electricity!"
Xie Yan nodded. "Just you wait and see, big brother!"
To be honest, if electricity were available for large appliances like cooking and washing clothes, like in later generations, it probably wouldn't be enough. But if it's just for lighting, it would be more than enough!
The four people standing on the top of the pit looked down into the huge pit with eager expressions!
They were about to leave, but fearing that children might come and damage the newly built biogas digester, they ignored Xie Yan's objections and built a high fence around it!
It was all made from sturdy tree branches cut down from the mountain, and several people even tested its sturdiness on site. Xie Yan couldn't help but laugh!
He stepped forward and said to the group, "That's enough. What's the difference between these trees and the ones planted next to them?"
Wang Sui nodded three times, "What we want is exactly like the trees that have been planted!"
"That way, those unruly kids won't be able to get in!"
Xie Yan was speechless when she thought of those naughty kids; this definitely needed to be reinforced.
Seven days passed in the blink of an eye, and the day for the biogas digester to be officially put into use arrived.
That day, many villagers gathered around to watch the spectacle. Those who didn't know what was going on thought it was some high-end, sophisticated item.
However, when the pungent smell suddenly wafted out, two-thirds of the crowd dispersed instantly.
The remaining third, like Yu Shan, were genuinely interested in understanding what biogas digesters were all about.
Xie Yan built a small biogas digester, simply connecting it to his own septic tank. Even though it wasn't large, the smell was extremely pungent, and Xie Yan had to hold his nose the entire time.
Chaochao originally came back with Yu Yue, but was scared away by the smell from afar. However, this also had its advantages, as some other children who were eager to come also ran away from the smell.
My curiosity about this place has completely vanished.
After finally managing to throw in all the rotten vegetable leaves, decaying straw, and other ingredients, Xie Yan quickly put the lid on and sealed it tightly.
After tidying up the surroundings a bit, I quickly ran away. Even after walking quite a distance, Xie Yan still felt a lingering odor on me.
The brigade secretary stood there, frowning. To be honest, he wasn't optimistic about the biogas digester.
Although they knew Xie Yan came from Beijing, he was just a high school student. Those who professionally build biogas digesters, weren't they all university graduates?
Therefore, the Party Secretary was initially reluctant to agree to Xie Yan's suggestion to build a biogas digester. However, since Yu Shan vouched for him, he couldn't say anything more and could only refrain from interfering.
After inspecting the place this time, the secretary felt even more strongly that the matter was far too frivolous, and that the banquet was clearly just a showy facade with no substance.
However, out of respect for Yu Shan, he could only sigh helplessly, say nothing, and turn to leave.
He had heard from people in other villages who had built biogas digesters that biogas digesters were not easy to build, and the process was very complicated. It was not like Xie Yan, who simply dug a hole and that was it!
Unlike the concerns of others, Xie Yan appeared exceptionally confident.
He had inspected it very carefully, and the biogas digester they built this time was of very good quality, especially its airtightness, which was practically perfect.
Moreover, the current hot weather can greatly shorten the fermentation time, and it can be completed in about a month, just in time for planting wheat.
Everything was absolutely perfect.
After Xie Yan got home, the first thing he did was take a shower. He didn't know if it was because he had been there for a long time and his sense of smell was affected, but he still felt smelly after showering.
Xie Yan stood at the bathroom door, sniffing every part of his body, still feeling that the smell hadn't dissipated.
He glanced up casually and saw Yu Yuehui picking cucumbers not far away. He quickly waved to her and said, "Wife, come here and smell me. Do I still smell?"
Yu Yue was both annoyed and amused by his words. This guy had been sniffing for so long, and he was actually smelling his own body!
I don't know what he was thinking. He'd been washing for ages, but he still felt like he smelled. But I put down what I was doing and went over to him anyway.
As they approached Xie Yan, a fresh and pleasant floral scent wafted into their nostrils. It was the fragrance of their household soap, a very refreshing smell that their whole family loved. They smiled helplessly and said, "There's no smell at all. You're just overthinking it."
Xie Yan still couldn't quite believe it. He always felt that his wife had a biased view of him, and that what she said probably didn't count.
So he turned his head and waved to the little figure who was eating a tomato, "Chao Chao! Baby, come over and help Daddy smell it."
As soon as Chaochao heard that her father needed her help, she immediately waddled over on her short legs.
She circled Xie Yan like a lively little puppy, sniffing here and there.
After smelling it, her eyes lit up, and she exclaimed in a clear voice, "It smells good!"
Yu Yuehui could hardly believe her daughter had said those words, and quickly looked at Xie Xiaoyan, trying to explain, "No, no! Don't listen to your daughter's nonsense!"
