Chapter 22 Chapter 022 Agree to make a stone mill.
In fact, this thing can’t be said to be fragrant. It is just the aroma of cooked mutton. It doesn’t have many additives. It is pure mutton flavor, and even has a bit of sheep smell.
Qin Huan didn't expect that his mother would send him food so quickly. He immediately found chopsticks happily. Just then, Zhang Jiajia came in and saw the mutton soup.
"Sister Huanhuan, did you order takeout? I just got the food for you from the store. Sister Xu specifically asked me to do that."
She raised the bag in her hand. This was a private restaurant in Mingzhu City. The food was delicious and very hygienic. Xu Hui was thinking about gaining weight for Qin Huan recently, so she specially contacted the restaurant and asked Zhang Jiajia to pick up the takeaway. If it were a normal time, there would definitely be no takeaway.
"Put it here too. Let's eat together. Oh, and by the way, that model stone mill that the kid played with that I just asked you about, do you know anything about it?"
This thing should be a toy, so Qin Huan just asked Zhang Jiajia, and Zhang Jiajia actually knew it.
"Yes, my sister has a daughter. Recently, when she was playing with toys, the stone mill toys you mentioned were available in the big shopping malls in Mingzhu City. There's a complete set of them for teaching children agricultural knowledge. Sister Huanhuan, do you want one?"
Zhang Jiajia opened the bag skillfully and took out four boxes of vegetables and two kinds of porridge. This was originally the meal for Qin Huan alone.
"Sit down and eat together. After we finish eating, I'll have to trouble you to accompany me. I want to buy this toy, but I don't know where to buy it, so I need you to accompany me."
Qin Huan invited Zhang Jiajia to eat together. The girl had been Qin Huan's assistant for two years and knew Qin Huan's personality. She smiled and sat down obediently to eat with him.
Use chopsticks to pick up the mutton and put it in your mouth. The extremely fresh and tender taste instantly fills your mouth. The unique flavor of mutton is very sufficient, but the smell of mutton is indeed very strong. This is probably related to the way the mutton was cooked in the Dayong Dynasty to remove the smell of mutton. However, it still tastes very delicious.
The most important thing is that the mutton is stewed very soft and tender, and my mother will definitely enjoy it. Then taste the pickled vegetables in the bowl. The crispy taste is very fresh, but I just can't tell what kind of vegetable it is. Then there are bean sprouts. When Qin Huan thought that this thing was made by the Qin family at the request of his mother, he ate even happier.
Zhang Jiajia opposite looked at the mutton soup curiously and smelled the mutton smell. She wondered if Sister Huanhuan didn't like this smell.
Unexpectedly, Qin Huan thought Zhang Jiajia wanted to eat and took the initiative to invite her.
"Would you like to try some lamb? This should be my mother's favorite flavor."
Now I like to eat.
Under Qin Huan's enthusiasm, Zhang Jiajia also ate a piece of mutton. She found that although the taste was a bit mutton-like, it tasted really good. It had a different taste from the mutton we eat nowadays and was very tender.
Of course, the two of them didn't know that the mutton was sent by the Zhang family as a gift. The nobles did not eat mutton from mature sheep. Many modern mutton restaurants only eat mutton from grown sheep. The mutton sent by the Zhang family was from fresh and tender lambs, because lamb meat tasted the freshest and was the nobles' favorite.
After confirming that his mother's food in Dayong Dynasty should be good for the time being, Qin Huan felt somewhat relieved, and then took Zhang Jiajia to eat until he was full.
I thought the mutton soup had a strong mutton smell, but it was completely drunk. However, some of the private dish was left, but I had to throw it into the trash can.
After dinner, Qin Huan learned that this kind of toy was available in the nearest shopping mall, so he took Zhang Jiajia away from the hospital.
Zhang Jiajia drove and arrived at the big shopping mall in less than ten minutes. She was quite familiar with the place.
"My sister's child had a birthday before, so I came here and spent a long time choosing a gift. I'm most familiar with this place."
Zhang Jiajia said, and soon she brought Qin Huan to the place where they could choose gifts. There were big boxes full of gifts, some of which contained dolls, and inside were all various doll clothes and decorations, with prices starting from five thousand.
Next are some pretend play items, some are plastic Ultraman family buckets, some are plastic combination car family buckets, and there are also toys for cooking. A whole set costs five or six thousand.
"Children nowadays have so many toys..." Qin Huan couldn't help but sigh. She wore sunglasses, a hat, and even a mask, and she really felt that these children's toys were very expensive.
"Yes, these toys can all be used. Look at this, Sister Huanhuan. This set of playhouse toys can let children experience the joy of cooking at home, from chopping vegetables to cooking, there is a whole series, and you can even make a fruit plate."
Zhang Jiajia explained, and then took Qin Huan to the most expensive knowledge popularization toy area.
The number here has exceeded 10,000!
Qin Huan saw various airplane models and cannon models at a glance. He walked all the way over and saw the agricultural knowledge popularization model that Zhang Jiajia mentioned on the top floor.
In such a huge box, one could see at a glance a stone mill, a waterwheel, and even a straight-beam plow, a curved-beam plow, an iron rake, a grater, a bamboo hat, a sickle, a hoe, a plow, a windmill, etc. Qin Huan didn't recognize most of them.
Such a detailed toy would definitely be very useful in the hands of its mother, but Qin Huan found it strange.
“Do children today need to learn this?”
She had never raised a child and was a little curious.
"It's about learning about knowledge, history, and farming culture. Many smart children will like this."
Zhang Jiajia explained, and seeing that Qin Huan seemed to be looking for this, she was satisfied. After deciding to buy it, she called the waiter.
After taking down such a big box, I went straight to the counter to pay.
Considering Qin Huan's celebrity status and fearing that she would be recognized, Zhang Jiajia asked Qin Huan to go first. Qin Huan transferred 10,000 yuan to her. Although she didn't understand why children's toys were so expensive, she knew that being expensive had its advantages. She had never seen these farming toys before, and her mother must need them very much.
After waiting for a while, Zhang Jiajia paid the bill and came over with the things. The two then returned to the underground garage and transported the things to the hospital.
The round trip took less than an hour, and when the things arrived, Qin Huan didn't bother Zhang Jiajia anymore.
"Then Jiajia, you take a rest first. My friend will come over tomorrow, so you can rest at home for a day."
"But Sister Xu told me to watch over you, Sister Huanhuan, while you're eating..."
She hesitated as she spoke. Who wouldn't be tempted by a vacation? And it was paid vacation, too?
"I'll take a photo for you on WeChat tomorrow. Don't worry, I'll eat well."
Qin Huan made a promise, and finally Zhang Jiajia was satisfied.
After she left, the ward became quiet. Since Qin Huan had been in the ward every day in the past few days, the nurse who was on night duty was given a rest. This nurse was only responsible for night duty and was someone Xu Hui knew, so he was very trustworthy.
Qin Huan took out the super big box and then picked up the stone mill inside. Although this stone mill was a toy, it was made to be a one-to-one replica. The small stone mill was made of stone on top and iron in the middle. It could be used by twisting it gently. Moreover, if it was disassembled, the same thing could be made.
In addition to the stone mill, Qin Huan also studied the plows, but she didn't know how to farm and didn't understand much, so she started weighing. There was a scale in the ward, so she took the things to weigh them.
After signing in, Qin Huan also discovered that her [Mother-Daughter Express] had been upgraded and could actually deliver two kilograms of items.
She tried to scan the toys with the courier and found that they were indeed defined as toys.
Soon, Qin Huan selected two kilograms of things from these toys and sent them directly by express delivery, hoping that they would be useful to his mother.
In Dayong Dynasty, it was completely dark. After finishing her meal, Qin Yuan was held by her mother and had her feet washed. Then she curled up in bed. On the bed opposite was Qin Yu. He had just come back from chopping wood outside for a day and had just laid down.
[Ding Dong! Your daughter Qin Huan sent you a package. Please pick it up as soon as possible. It will be returned within 24 hours.]
Hearing this familiar voice, Qin Yuan thought to herself, "Finally, he's here! Otherwise, I would have really fallen asleep!"
She suddenly sat up from the bed, which startled Xie Yaer. She quickly stood up as well, and then she found that there were many things on the quilt in front of her daughter. They looked small and looked like... toys???
Anyway, when Xie Yaer took a look, she thought these things were similar to the Nine Rings Linked Chain.
Qin Yuan spotted the toys and immediately recognized the iron rake, followed by the waterwheel and the windmill! Yes! A stone mill! The moment she saw it, she was instantly excited. She quickly pulled out the round stone mill from the pile of small items and found it was quite heavy. It was indeed made of stone to ensure a one-to-one replica.
Only then did Xie Yaer realize that among the pile of toys was... a plow.
Don't think that Xie Ya'er doesn't know these things just because she is a noble lady from an aristocratic family. The nobler the lady, the more books she has read. Xie Ya'er has seen straight-beam plows in books. They are the plows used by the people of the Yong Dynasty to farm. The same is true in the Qin family. As for livestock, they really don't have any. Even the Qin family is considered a wealthy family. They can't afford to raise cattle, mainly because they are difficult to serve. Only landlords have cattle to plow the land. Ordinary families plow the land with manpower.
Xie Yaer saw another kind of plow, a curved one, and she didn't know what it meant. There were also these things on her daughter, and they all looked like they were used to tend crops in the fields...
"Mother! Look at this! This is a millstone."
Qin Yuan held up the millstone to show her mother. Qin Yu, who was standing next to her, heard the noise and stood up and walked over.
Xie Yaer couldn't hide her daughter's affairs from her husband, so she told Qin Shu about it. However, Qin Yu didn't care whether his daughter was a child prodigy or not, as long as she was his own daughter. So when he saw something appear out of thin air in his daughter's hand, he knew that this was the fairy method his wife mentioned.
I'm afraid the changes in the family these days are all related to my daughter.
"Hey, what is this for?"
Xie Yaer guessed that this thing was related to food, but she couldn't tell what it was used for.
"It's used for grinding flour. Put wheat in it and you'll have flour to eat. You can make a lot of delicious food with it."
Oh... Xie Yaer was relieved and smiled faintly. It seemed that her daughter was still childish by nature. The panic in her heart when she saw these farming tools was now relieved a little.
"So it's used to grind wheat. Then tomorrow, mother will ask your grandmother to bring you some wheat for you to grind, okay?"
Xie Yaer coaxed her daughter, but Qin Yu's eyes lit up when he heard this. Seeing his daughter turning the stone mill, the farmers who tended to the grain in the fields every day could see the convenience of this thing at a glance.
He looked at his daughter with burning eyes, but said nothing. It was Qin Yuan who felt her father's gaze, so she raised the millstone and spoke happily.
"This stone mill can grind flour. Dad, can you help grandpa and uncle build me a really big stone mill? Then I can eat flour every day! Eating flour will make me strong!!!"
Qin Yu naturally agreed immediately to her daughter's first request and nodded.
"Okay, I'll talk to your grandparents tomorrow. Since we have nothing to do this winter, I'll make you a stone mill."
She agreed immediately, which made Qin Yuan no longer need to act coquettishly. She was really tired and didn't even bother to look at other things on the quilt. She yawned and pushed the things forward.
"Mom and Dad, please help me clean up. I'm so tired and sleepy..."
As she spoke, she leaned over to Xie Yaer's arms and fell asleep. Qin Yu had already helped to fetch these things and carefully placed them aside, while Xie Yaer was already coaxing Qin Yuan to sleep...
