Chapter 115
The refrigerator in the kitchen is already in place, and there are all kinds of pots, pans, and dishes.
The kitchen can be said to be the most modern place in the entire courtyard.
Although she was from the countryside and used to burn firewood, firewood has been basically eliminated now. In addition, she lives in the mountains, so burning firewood is also quite troublesome, so naturally she switched to natural gas and induction stoves.
There are two gas stoves and an induction cooker which is the stove top. There are two rice cookers but they are not very big. I bought a complete set of pots, pans, and utensils. A range hood is also installed, and there is a dishwasher... In short, all the equipment is basically modern, even the walls are made of cement and tiled.
Although the pots, bowls, pans, and dishes were all available, they were all new and needed to be cooked, which was time-consuming. There were also no seasonings, so Lin Nanzhi simply made some instant noodles for lunch.
After eating instant noodles, he was ready to ride the electric donkey to the small supermarket in the village. Just as he got on the car, August jumped out from somewhere and sat in the vegetable basket in front of the electric car. Lin Nanzhi stroked its fur and left it alone.
I rode my bike to a small supermarket and bought a ten-pound bag of rice and a two-liter bucket of oil. There were no small bottles of condiments, so I just bought the ones that cost one dollar a bag. I took them home, put them in bottles, put labels on them, and used them.
After buying the things, he did not return to the courtyard, but went to the orchard.
In September, a large number of fruits are ripe. Today, Mr. Lin contacted the villagers, and every household helped pick the fruits in the orchard, and then packed them into boxes and shipped them out. Whether it is to the city, town, county, or other urban areas, or those purchased online, the quantities are relatively large.
The orchard’s reputation has been completely spread. Not only is the online store doing very well, but the offline business is also very profitable, and the supply is basically unable to meet the demand. For this reason, Father Lin bought many more fruit trees to plant, and Uncle Lin also bought some other fruit trees.
In the past, we only expanded the planting area, and in addition to these, we added cantaloupe, red pitaya, longan, lychee, pineapple, sleeves, mangosteen, and loquat. However, Lin's father complained that the planting effect of the newly bought fruits was not ideal, so Lin Nanzhi had to comfort him by saying that the fruits would not be very good in the first year of planting.
Of course, the actual reason is that the soil here is not suitable for their growth. As for the other reasons, it has been watered with spiritual spring water, so none of these are available, so the effect is definitely not very good.
So, when Lin Nanzhi came over and saw that Lin's father had already asked people to load the fruits onto a truck and send the villagers away, he poured the spiritual spring water into the water cellar, turned on the water with a pipe, and sprinkled all the newly planted fruit trees.
A lot of spiritual spring water was poured, but there was also a lot of water in the water cellar, so the mixture was diluted a lot. It wouldn't change too quickly, but it would change little by little.
Looking at these fruits, I can't help but sigh. I have planted twenty kinds of fruits at home, basically all the ones I like to eat that you can name. I have even expanded the orchard a lot.
It is estimated that Uncle Lin's family paid Father Lin 10,000 yuan in rent every month because of what Uncle Lin said. That makes 120,000 yuan a year, 20,000 yuan more than the 100,000 yuan that Lin Nanzhi said. Father Lin had no choice but to accept it.
The Lin family owns a lot of land on the mountain behind the village. When they first contracted the forest, that area was also included. Now that all the wasteland has been reclaimed, there are about a hundred acres in total, which is enough to grow a lot of fruit.
The irrigation pipes were also automatic irrigation pipes, and the water was connected to the water source that Lin Nanzhi found in the village. It was a bit difficult to irrigate with the spiritual spring water, so Lin Nanzhi finally had to ask Lin's father to dig a large reservoir on the top of the mountain, and just put the spiritual spring water in it.
But the only downside was that the spiritual spring water in her mind could not be taken out in large areas, but only through her hands, or fingers. Her two hands together only had ten fingers, and it took a lot of time to slowly release it. It took more than four hours to fill one-fifth of the reservoir.
Fortunately, this is enough.
After turning on the automatic irrigation and checking with the monitors, and spraying every area, Lin Nanzhi picked some cherries from the space and walked back.
The family planted a lot of fruits, but some family members didn't like them so Father Lin stopped planting them. He also gave up on crops like watermelon, which can only be grown once every three years on a piece of land.
Lin Nanzhi had no shortage of fruits to eat at home, but there was none outside, so she planted a tree in the space. After all, the fruits inside would mature faster and would be enough for her to eat alone.
After putting the cherries away, I thought for a while and picked a basket of loquats and seasonal grapes, then rode my electric donkey home with satisfaction.
The first thing I do when I get home is to open the two woks, then carefully wash the pots, bowls, plates and utensils I bought and put them in the sterilizer for disinfection.
Lin Nan believes that life should be as convenient as possible, so when building the kitchen, the space was made neither too big nor too small. It has everything, and the design makes full use of the available space.
When I bought them, I thought this one was good and that one was good, and before I knew it, I bought a lot. Now that I have sorted them out and put them away, my kitchen is full and not as bleak as it was at the beginning.
Prepare all the ingredients, keep them frozen or fresh, and put them in fresh-keeping boxes or bags to prevent the ingredients from smelling different and to make them look neater.
Fortunately, what I bought was a 650-liter double-door large refrigerator, which is divided into two parts, the large one is for refrigeration and preservation, and the small one is the freezing area. There are three large compartments and four small ones. The large one can even fit a rice cooker for five people.
There are also four or five grids on the two doors, with eggs or fruits on the top and drinks on the bottom.
Put all the food in and it will be filled up, which makes you feel safe.
After tidying up, I looked at the time and it was already five o'clock, so I prepared to cook.
The ingredients delivered also included chicken, so I cooked chicken breast for August, added some fruits, cat food and vegetables for him to eat first, and then I washed the rice to prepare my own meal.
She was too lazy to cook, so she decided to use a rice cooker to cook the rice. So after putting the rice in the pot, she topped it with sausage, diced bacon and ham she got from home, and peas. She then added hot pot base and water, plugged it in, and cooked the rice normally.
She likes to eat potatoes, so when it's almost done, I put some diced potatoes in and cook it for another seven or eight minutes before serving.
She mixed the ingredients and rice evenly with a spoon, took the rice cooker and bowls and chopsticks to the restaurant and sat down. Just as she was about to eat, she heard the sound of a car. She looked up and saw Shen Xiangyan coming over.
Shen Xiangyan paused when he saw her, but still nodded politely. Lin Nanzhi also smiled slightly and asked politely, "Have you eaten? Do you want to eat something?"
"good."
Unexpectedly, Shen Xiangyan did not refuse. Lin Nanzhi was also surprised, but he still walked in to get him the bowl and chopsticks, and served a bowl to Shen Xiangyan.
Shen Xiangyan said thank you and started eating.
It didn't matter how much she ate by herself, but with one more person, Lin Nanzhi felt embarrassed to just give her a dull meal, so he went to get two bottles of pickled mustard tubers made by Lin's mother, cooked a small Chinese cabbage, and washed the grapes and put them away.
