Chapter 44 Dried Radish, Seafood Instant Noodles Plus
Because of the outstanding performance of Huang Auntie's team yesterday, their team attracted the attention of other teams when they gathered for work early this morning.
Aunt Huang puffed out her chest to meet everyone's envious and admiring gazes.
The other ladies also felt proud and held their heads high.
There was only one person who sang a different tune. He lowered his head and picked at the pompoms on Mingdai's woolen hat.
He had taken a fancy to it since the morning and would pinch it from time to time.
Mingdai wanted to give it to him, but he refused and just wanted to pinch it from time to time.
Anyway, it didn't hurt or itch, so Mingdai didn't care and just let it go.
Because the wind was strong, Mingdai found a scarf for him and put it on his head inside out.
If you wear a headscarf, you will be much warmer and won't be exposed to the wind.
Although he is not afraid of the cold, he has suffered a brain injury after all, so it is better to protect himself.
Soon it was time to go to work and everyone started to go to the fields.
Everyone else was heading towards the cabbage field, but their team was the only one heading towards the radish field, which attracted even more attention.
Everyone straightened their backs and accepted the scrutiny. Even Ming Dai felt very proud. She would one day become a model worker!
I never dared to think about it before!
This pride ended when Zhou Sinian took out the kitchen knife.
He had long arms and quickly took out the kitchen knives from Mingdai's basket and Aunt Huang's basket.
Looking at the two kitchen knives, his eyes lit up and he started to wipe them against each other.
The unique sound of metal rang out, and everyone on the scene gasped and ran to the ground in a hurry.
In an instant, only Zhou Sinian, Mingdai and Huang Ayi were left at the scene.
Aunt Huang had a stiff smile on her face, but one could tell from her eyes that she was screaming madly.
Mingdai quickly snatched the kitchen knife and returned it to Aunt Huang.
Aunt Huang swallowed her saliva. Seeing Mingdai snatch the knife so easily, she felt that it was really like salt water conquering tofu. There is always something that can conquer something else.
Once we got to the field and started working, the rejection I had towards Zhou Sinian immediately disappeared!
Aunt Huang waved her hand and all the aunts put down their knives and started to pick radishes.
The task of peeling the radish threads was given to Zhou Sinian, and Mingdai took the children to pick the radish threads.
In this way, Zhou Sinian single-handedly took on the task of cutting radish strips for the entire team.
Mingdai and her child were so busy picking up the radish strips he had chopped that they didn't have time. From a distance, she only saw his knife leaving a double image!
Another day of completing tasks ahead of schedule.
Radishes contain a lot of dirt, so they need to be washed clean before being transported.
After leaving enough radishes for Mingdai, baskets of radishes were transported to the river.
Because the river was far away, Aunt Huang requisitioned the family's flatbed truck.
The baskets were piled high, but Zhou Sinian had no pressure in pulling them up.
When they reached the river, the aunties rolled up their trousers and went into the river to wash the radishes, and told the young wife, the eldest daughter-in-law, and Zhou Sinian not to go into the river.
Mingdai was grateful for their kindness, so she quietly went back home and brought back a pot of boiling water and two bowls with ginger slices and brown sugar in it.
She poured water and fed each auntie who went into the water a bowl of water. The aunties were so happy that they all praised Mingdai for her thoughtfulness.
Zhou Sinian, who had just returned from pulling a cart, saw Mingdai and wanted one too. He took out his teacup from Mingdai's messenger bag and poured a full cup.
He swallowed it in one gulp.
Then he frowned and looked at Mingdai.
Mingdai blinked innocently and said, I really didn’t mean to not tell you that I put ginger slices in it.
At first, the aunties were worried that Zhou Sinian was angry and would hit someone.
Later I found out that it wasn't true, and then I started laughing.
The remaining brown sugar ginger tea was distributed to the people on shore, and they began to transport the washed radishes to the sunbathing area.
With the cart, they went faster.
Compared to cabbage, pickling radishes is a little more troublesome.
You need to divide the radish into four equal parts, put them into a jar for pickling, and then take them out and dry them until they are dehydrated.
Zhou Sinian was still the lead worker, with others assisting. Baskets of radish strips were evenly coated with salt in a large basin, and then spread out on mats to dry in the wind.
In the evening, when the other teams finished their last cabbage work and came to the field to show off the sauerkraut, all they saw was a field of dried radishes.
Is it a human?!
Is it a human?!
Two days’ work was completed in one day!
Auntie Huang's team had disbanded long ago and went home to cook.
After sending the radishes back to the vegetable cellar, Mingdai took Zhou Sinian directly to the space.
After taking off their shoes, the two went to the bathroom, took off their clothes and stuffed them into the washing machine.
Then turn on the water, let it rain, and use a bath ball to take a bath.
After a set of punches, the whole person becomes lively.
Sitting in the restaurant, the two were thinking about what to eat, and finally Zhou Sinian suggested eating instant noodles.
He only ate it once last time, but he remembered it and wants to eat it again.
This requirement must be met, Ming Dai immediately arranged a deluxe version of instant noodles plus!
Adding eggs and intestines is a common practice. After testing that Zhou Sinian is not allergic to seafood, Ming Dai added king crab and abalone.
These are the things in her refrigerator. It is automatically replenished after you finish eating them. How thoughtful!
When the king crab and lobster were first taken out, Zhou Sinian looked reluctant.
But after the steaming aroma came out, he walked around the steamer.
By the time Mingdai was unpacking the crab, it had already started crying.
Mingdai gave him a crab leg, and he chewed it with a crunching sound.
In the end, each person had a pot of instant seafood noodles, which became a divine delicacy in Zhou Sinian's eyes for a long time afterwards.
At this moment, at the dinner table of the new educated youth, Qi Zhijun did not see Fang Rou and felt a little sad.
He knew that there was a problem between him and Fang Rou.
Fang Rou unilaterally used cold violence against him, but he didn't know why, as they were fine before.
He was a little angry.
Because Fang Rou was so willful in the carriage, he lent her his military coat.
If the old lady hadn't pulled her cloak over to her, would she have had to watch herself freeze to death?
Also, because she was sick, she had the strength to operate the sewing machine in the room, but she was unwilling to make herself a cup of hot tea.
In the end, Liu Yan boiled some hot water for herself.
Qin Fangfang (the good old lady) shook her head: It turns out that Zhiqing Liu asked me to boil water for Zhiqing Qi to drink.
It was Liu Yan who came back from work and came to greet me without even taking a rest.
Xiaorou didn't ask herself a single question.
Moreover, he had already intended to forgive Fang Rou, but Fang Rou refused to come over for dinner. She would rather eat alone in her room than come over to eat with him.
He didn't know what Fang Rou was up to, as he had already taken very good care of her.
For her, he deceived his mother and followed her to the countryside, bringing himself to this barren place where he was tired and cold. How could Xiaorou still not be satisfied?
He has been working hard for their relationship, even though she is not the good girl his mother calls her and can't cook or do housework.
But she can play the violin! She is also pretty, and now she seems to be able to make clothes!
Thinking of this, Qi Zhijun's heart softened again.
Forget it, he should go and apologize tomorrow. After all, she is the girl he likes. She is so outstanding, it is normal for her to have a temper.
