Chapter 47: Alien
She dried the green beans, cowpeas, eggplants, etc. in Kang Mingyuan's fields into dried vegetables. She also made a lot of sour water spinach. After cooking, she wrapped it in oil paper and stored it there to eat in winter.
After dinner, although it was very late, the moon hanging high in the sky told everyone that they could not rest yet and had to work overtime in the fields.
Qiao Mo was no exception. After packing up, she followed everyone out.
The moon was as cool as water. Qiao Mo was cutting rice and practicing the "Herb Secret" just like during the day. The difference was that the energy ions she absorbed into her body brought a hint of coolness, which made her mind clearer. So, she separated a part of her consciousness and covered her surroundings.
What surprised her was that apart from the smaller coverage area, she could see everything around her clearly. With a thought, she collected all the rice ears and grains that fell on the ground into the wooden bracelet space. It did not affect her training at all. It seemed that she could do many things at the same time.
Time passed quickly, and in the blink of an eye it was midnight. All the rice had been harvested. The men helped to thresh and carry the rice, while the women tied the rice straw.
Although Qiao Mo's strength was no less than any other man here, she did not take the initiative to do the heavy work. Instead, she tied straw with Tang Xinmei, Hua Mingli, and Chen Ran. However, she had never done this before, and it took her two tries to learn it after watching Tang Xinmei do it.
After tying the straw, the men also threshed the rice, leaving only the last load of rice. So, everyone dismantled the thresher, and then carried the rice and thresher on their shoulders, on their backs, and together they carried the rice to the threshing ground in front of the warehouse.
"Well, today's task was completed very well. Keep up the hard work tomorrow." Captain Li inspected their harvested rice fields and saw that there was not a single ear of rice on the ground. He nodded with satisfaction and waved his hand to let them rest.
When they arrived at the educated youth camp, everyone was tired and hungry. Qiao Mo cooked noodles for everyone. Since there was no meat or vegetables, she fried an egg for each person and added a few bok choys. As for the chili peppers, she fried some chopped red peppers and put them on the table. Anyone who wanted to eat could add more.
She loves spicy food, so she first added a large spoonful of chopped chili peppers.
"I didn't expect that you could add vegetables to noodles." Chen Ran sighed as he looked at the white noodles, yellow eggs and green cabbage in the bowl.
"The noodles have a large capacity. You can add a lot of things to a small bowl of noodles. In addition to these, you can also add sauerkraut, brown rice... Unfortunately, we don't have any at home, so we can only make do like this." Qiao Mo said with a smile.
"It's so delicious! I haven't eaten such delicious noodles in a long time." Tang Xinmei's cooking skills are pretty good, but she's far behind Qiao Mo's.
"Qiao Mo, if you have the chance in the future, you can work as a chef in a state-owned restaurant." Shao Lidong also gave her a thumbs up: If he had known that she was so capable, he would definitely not have refused her to join the company.
At this moment, he forgot that Qiao Mo had never said that he wanted to team up with them.
"With my skills, I can only fool myself. There's no way I can be a chef." Qiao Mo smiled and shook her head. Cooking for herself is a hobby, but she doesn't want to make it a career.
After eating noodles, everyone rushed to take a shower. Qiao Mo didn't want to compete with Hua Mingli and the others for the bathroom, so he carried a bucket of water into the room and slipped into the wooden bracelet space. He took a nice bath in it, dried his hair, and then came out to rest.
