After the renovation of the house was completed, Lu Qingyang felt that the whole house was much warmer.

Zhou Jianshe's craftsmanship is pretty good. He made all the tables and chairs out of pine wood, and they look quite presentable when placed.

Purely natural, pollution-free, and formaldehyde-free, it’s solid wood furniture.

Sun Xiangqian took advantage of the free time and started to set up the stove.

Bricks are available, but it does require some craftsmanship.

In recent days, they have been repairing the cowshed during the day and building the stove when they come back at night, and they are quite efficient.

Normally he would make some extra corn cakes and sorghum steamed bread and bring them over to help the couple.

After a while, they became familiar with each other, and Zhang Zhong was more polite, but he still didn't dare to talk to them much.

On the day the cowshed was completed, the pot used in front of the cow finally died gloriously, and it was troublesome to go to the town.

I heard from the locals here that they all make their own wooden steamers.

The best material for making wooden steamers is walnut, which has a moderate hardness and a light density.

And most importantly, the steamed rice is very fragrant.

This is a rare wood species of walnut in the forest.

When he returned to the forest farm, Lu Qingyang became more careful and prepared to see if there were any walnut trees.

I looked for it in my free time, but I couldn't find it.

Lu Qingyang began to get close to the old educated youth here and handed out a pack of cigarettes in his pocket.

Sure enough, there was someone who could help. An old educated youth pointed to a place and said, "If I remember correctly, there seems to be a tree there, but what do you want the walnut tree for?"

"I'm going to cut off a section and make a wooden steamer."

The old educated youth was not surprised at all and smiled, "You don't mind the trouble. Do you really plan to settle down here? Don't you want to go back to the city?"

"Of course I do."

Lu Qingyang rubbed his hands, saying that he had to stay here for at least five more days.

We must try our best to improve our quality of life.

He ran to the depths of the forest and took a look. Wow, there was more than one catalpa tree here, and they were all of the best quality. It would be great if they could all be planted in the space.

However, on that day, Lu Qingyang only cut a section and made the wooden steamer first. It was important to fill his stomach.

After getting off the plane, I started to make it, which was indeed much more troublesome than I imagined.

First, break the wood into small pieces, then piece them together into a trapezoidal barrel that is small at the bottom and large at the top. Drill some small holes in the middle of the pieces, and then use bamboo nails to pass through the holes to connect them together. Then, weave them together with rattan strips, and you have a wooden steamer.

Next, use a planer to plane both the inside and outside of the steamer until they are smooth. Use bamboo strips to weave a circle around the outside of the steamer to reinforce it. Add a bamboo steamer in a high area at the bottom. Finally, add a wooden lid and you're done!

With the help of Zhou Jianshe, it took several days to complete the project.

He couldn't wait to try out the new wooden steamer.

Before use, clean it with a wooden brush, then simply disinfect it with boiling water and salt, and then prepare to steam some rice.

Sure enough, the steamed rice is much more fragrant than the modern rice cooker.

The rice is crystal clear, with distinct grains and no mushy or raw ingredients. It has the pure aroma of the original wood, is fragrant and soft, and tastes soft and has a rich aroma.

It's worth spending so much effort.

Use the pre-marinated wild boar ribs to stew a salty ribs hot pot and add various vegetables.

They all ate together, and Lu Qingyang watched to see if there would be any changes after they ate the food in the space.

Finally, he came to the conclusion that only he could add attributes to the dishes in the space, while others would just eat ordinary dishes without any additional effects.

But if you think about it carefully, this is normal.

After all, he was a time traveler, and they were all natives of the book.

"Qingyang, you spent so much effort to make this wooden steamer. The rice cooked in it is so delicious. I'll eat five bowls."

Lu Qingyang smiled dryly, "You are exaggerating."

He poured two bowls of rice soup for them, "Do you want some rice soup?"

"Drink! What you made, even if it's shit, I'll have to taste it!"

Sun Xiangqian took a sip of the rice soup and exhaled a long sigh, "The rice soup is more fragrant than usual. When I go back later, I will also make a wooden steamer to cook."

After they left, Lu Qingyang washed some soybeans and soaked them there.

If he has time, he plans to borrow the stone mill tomorrow to grind some soybeans and make some tofu and bean curd skin.

He will go fishing tomorrow to save some luck points.

This time, he wanted to find a more remote place, avoid these people, and catch more fish.

The remaining ones are pickled and stored, and when the cold winter comes, the food will be stored for a while.

He suddenly realized a problem. He hadn't seen Shen Moxiao for several days and didn't know what she was busy with.

In the original book, she fell into the 깊 River and drowned in this winter. He had to remind her to stay away from the river.

Just when I was about to look for her, I saw Shen Mo coming over with two buckets.

"Lu Qingyang, hickory nuts! Pine cones!"

Lu Qingyang squatted down and looked at the bucket full of hickory nuts. "These nuts are very full. Are you so busy these days? Did you go to the mountains to look for these nuts?"

"One bucket of walnuts and one bucket of pine cones, split in half."

Lu Qingyang couldn't help but find it funny that he was also involved.

"Fry you!"

Thinking of the pineapple she had that day, she felt it was unforgettable.

The people here fry the pineapple, but they are reluctant to fry it like Lu Qingyang, so the taste is a little bland.

Shen Mo didn't know how many squirrel nests she had dug before she found these.

"Okay, I'll cook it for you right away. Have you had dinner yet? Do you want to stay for more?"

Shen Mo curled her lips and said, "I've eaten it, but I still want to eat it."

Fortunately, he foresaw and cooked another pot of rice, "It's just right, you can taste the rice cooked in the new wooden steamer."

As soon as Shen Mo sat down, she ate two bowls of rice with the salted spare ribs.

But two bowls of rice were clearly not enough for her.

Lu Qingyang couldn't help but wonder, did she really come here after dinner?

After eating more than half a bucket of rice, Shen Mo finally touched her belly with satisfaction, her mouth still full of satisfaction.

"Maltenum."

So this is a snack after dinner?

Lu Qingyang didn't know whether to laugh or cry so he made him two cups of tea.

"After drinking, come and do the work!"

The two of them picked out the walnuts and the dead leaves and shredded branches from the pine trees.

Now Lu Qingyang discovered another problem. The pot he had here was not enough for frying at all, so he had to divide it into several pots for frying.

Shen Mo has a big appetite, so I guess these are just a small amount for her as snacks.

Pecans need to be fried twice, and Shen Mo eats them while frying them.

As soon as the pecans came out of the pot, Shen Mo tried to crack them and take out the flesh inside, then ate them with a satisfied look on her face.

After frying for a while, there was a crisp cracking sound, and a large crack suddenly appeared on the iron pot.

Lu Qingyang was simply at a loss whether to laugh or cry.

"Look at you little foodie. Now my pot is sacrificed in your hands. You have to pay me back."

Shen Mo looked up in confusion, and when she came to her senses, she agreed immediately: "Pot? I'll pay you for it!"

"I'll buy you the best pot in town!"
