Chapter 69 Damn it! Damn it! All of it is damned!
Mingdai didn't forget to think about food while watching the excitement.
After all the grains were sorted, Mingdai used soybeans and mung beans to sprout.
The method of growing bean sprouts is very simple, just maintain the humidity and temperature. Mingdai built a simple kang in the shed and placed two large baskets of soybeans and mung beans on it.
After a week, the bean sprouts are ready to eat.
Both fried bean sprouts and bean sprout soup are widely popular.
Mingdai thought of growing some sprouts with peanuts and stir-frying some from time to time to change the taste.
Everybody was very happy. Compared with the stone rice of previous years, the rice this year was a world of difference. What's more, now everyone could have two meals of dry rice a day. If it weren't for the hard work, everyone would gain weight. This was unthinkable in previous winters!
Everyone adapted well, except the new educated youth.
Whether it was day or night, one could almost always hear Liu Yan crying, so she gradually got the nickname Meng Jiangnu.
But she only dared to cry a few times, and that was when Song Lanlan was not around.
Otherwise, Song Lanlan could always make her cry even louder.
Qi Zhijun also became more and more taciturn.
The young man who had no worries about food and clothing had never done any physical work. When he was rubbing corn and chopping cabbage in Liujiawan, he already felt that it was very hard work. He never thought that compared with building a reservoir, it was just a drizzle.
Even though Liu Yan helped him from time to time, it was still difficult for him to do it. His entire shoulder was swollen and it hurt when touched.
He spent money to have someone deliver letters to the commune, hoping that Fang Rou would come to see him. Even if it was just to comfort him, he felt that he could hold on.
However, Fang Rou never came once, and didn't even write a reply, so all my expectations fell into oblivion.
Zhang Xiaojun and Liu Daye continued to draw water as usual, and were often warned of deductions, so they simply gave up.
Only Cai Mingcheng and the silly girl Qin Fangfang worked seriously and were fully accepted by the villagers and the old educated youth.
Fang Rou, who Qi Zhijun was thinking about, was standing in the office of the commune primary school.
She read the letter sent from the capital. It did not urge her to return to the city again and again. Instead, it changed the tone and asked her and Qi Zhijun to stay in the countryside and seriously participate in the mission to the countryside.
She didn't expect that the decline of the Fang and Qi families would come so early.
In the previous life, because Qi Zhijun and I were still in the capital, the adults didn’t tell them these.
However, everything is different now. She will not rush to the countryside and become an abandoned woman in the countryside in her previous life. She will become the wife of the richest man and stand at the top with her lover!
As for the letter sent by Qi Zhijun, of course she received it.
From the longing at the beginning, to the anxiety in the middle, to the anger at the end, Fang Rou watched it all with a smile.
Brother Zhijun, I will return to you a thousandfold the pain I experienced in my previous life!
In addition to daily cooking, Mingdai began to have an affair with Zhou Sinian in the nearby mountains.
They usually choose to set out at night and go home to cook at noon. Sometimes they go far away, so they just prepare the dishes in advance and Mrs. Huang can heat them up and eat them at noon the next day.
On this day, their goal was a distant mountain.
They set out in the middle of the night. Zhou Sinian's long legs were two meters away. Mingdai was trapped under his armpits, shaking her short legs in jealousy.
When daybreak came, they arrived at their destination.
This mountain is the highest one nearby, Daqing Mountain. There should be a spring on the mountain, and part of the water in the reservoir also comes from here.
After rubbing their faces which were stiffened by the cold wind, the two men walked towards the mountain.
Ming Dai has discovered a new way to play the treasure hunt function, and can set treasure categories according to her own consciousness.
For example, if the target is food and medicine, after entering the mountain, you can see all the edible animals, plants and medicines.
Especially for medicinal herbs, Daqing Mountain is simply a treasure trove! Treasure trove!
The medicinal herbs that Ming Dai could not get in her previous life are everywhere here!!
Today, their goal is to find forest ginseng!
After setting the target, the entire mountain began to disintegrate before her eyes, and slowly some spots of light began to flash among the mountains and forests.
After determining the location, they headed towards the brightest and densest spot.
Mingdai was responsible for leading the way, while Zhou Sinian was responsible for clearing the way and keeping an eye on safety.
There are not only wolves here, Mingdai also found two Siberian tigers, not sure if they are a male and a female.
The morning mist in the mountains was very heavy, and everything was wet. After walking for a while, Mingdai gave up.
It wasn't that she didn't have the physical strength, but that she was small. There were too many thick rotten plants here and she would easily step on air. For convenience, Zhou Sinian carried her on his back.
When she was on Zhou Sinian's back, Mingdai felt very strange, somewhat repulsive and a little shy, as no one had ever carried her like this before.
She had never breathed in air higher than 1.9 meters.
But the awkwardness only lasted for a while, and Mingdai began to complain that Zhou Sinian was too thin and his bones were aching. She didn't know where all the food he ate all day went.
Without Xiao Leiyu, Zhou Sinian was much faster and soon found the vicinity of the light spot.
By lifting up the humus layers one by one, a large ginseng forest was revealed.
Ming Dai looked at it with shining eyes, and kept saying, "It's rich!"
Look at this, oh! It's 200 years old!
Look at that one, ah! It's 500 years old!
Ming Dai thought about the ginseng that she had begged and pleaded for at the medicinal materials conference before, but couldn’t buy even if she paid a lot of money! !
Here now!!
There is a large piece!!
Damn! Damn! All of it!
Take it away! Take it away! You must take it all away!!
She was so greedy that she couldn't bear to let it go, so she simply packed up the hill and put it in the space.
Fortunately, there was a large piece of land in the space, and a small ginseng forest was placed in front of the villa, which made Mingdai very curious.
After collecting the ginseng, Mingdai was full of fighting spirit and directed Zhou Si to the next destination.
There is also a patch of forest ginseng here, and its area is not smaller than the one just mentioned.
Mingdai did not kill them all, but only dug out the older ones and kept the rest of the younger ones.
Zhou Sinian looked at Mingdai, who was lying on the ground and brushing carefully with a small brush, and was very confused.
He lowered his head and looked for a while, then took out the pine nut candy that Mingdai made for him and ate it while being alert.
When Mingdai dug out a ginseng that was more than 500 years old, her heart was trembling.
This thing can no longer be seen in later generations. The century-old wild ginseng on the market is either passed down from family to family or artificially bred and fake.
Looking at the cute ginseng doll that has begun to take human form, Mingdai's mouth is almost grinning from ear to ear.
Zhou Sinian was chewing candy and looking at Mingdai's infatuated face. His eyes rolled and he snatched the ginseng doll from Mingdai's hand in a flash.
Ming Dai only felt a flash before her eyes, and the ginseng doll in her hand disappeared!!
She looked up and saw Zhou Sinian holding the ginseng doll and putting it into his mouth! !
!!! ...
Ming Dai screamed but her throat was blocked. She jumped onto Zhou Sinian and decisively reached out her hand. Just before the ginseng doll was put into Zhou Sinian's mouth, she stuffed her hand into Zhou Sinian's mouth and blocked it tightly! !
Zhou Sinian!!!
