Pastoral Song [Farming]

Chapter 6 Seeing Dark Clouds for the First Time Thank You for Keeping Someone

In the ancient times in the previous life, ordinary people could not afford pure rice, but all kinds of grains were mixed together to satisfy their hunger.Makino is not a ignorant person. Two-thirds of the two bowls served by Jiang Ye are white rice. For ordinary farmers, this is definitely a treat for the holidays.

And for Makino, this is a good thing.He is a standard northerner who loves pasta but not rice.In order to lose fat and build muscle, the nutritionist suggested eating some miscellaneous grains. Noodles are too high in carbohydrates, so they are not suitable for this period.At that time, Makino collected all the miscellaneous grains he could buy from Yachao, and even asked his mother to send a large bag from China. Unexpectedly, he fell in love with this way of eating.It is very kind to see the original mixed grain rice now, although it is not as finely processed as the grain in the previous life.

"Thank you Brother Jiang. It's very good. I've never eaten white rice before." not to him.

"Brother Jiang is going to town tomorrow, can you take me with you?" Muye stared at Jiang Ye with burning eyes.

He is now penniless and poor. He needs to understand the prices and markets here, see if there are any opportunities to make money, and find a way to support himself.And he still needs to build a house. He didn't expect that he didn't worry about the house in his previous life, but now he will be a house slave.

Jiang Ye had noticed Makino's small movements when he entered the door, but he didn't pay attention to it. Instead, he thought that Makino was a little cute and lively.I know how good I am at cooking. It’s good to be able to cook well. He usually eats a lot of barbecued meat, and the dishes are basically boiled with a little salt. This is for the sake of the body’s lack of food. Otherwise, this step will probably be omitted. .

"Well, okay."

Makino said that he wanted to go to the town, but Jiang Ye didn't think there was anything wrong with it. Anyway, he saw that most girls and brothers who could afford it liked to go to the town, and he didn't know what to do. Kind of stupid.Jiang Ye thought that Makino might be the same as other buddies, so let's take him, it's okay.

Until many years later, Jiang Ye wanted to take Mu Ye to the streets from time to time, but he didn't know whether he still felt bored or not, let's not talk about it for now.

Although the taste of the food is hard to describe, Makino still ate everything. This is his habit, and he never likes to waste a drop of food since he was a child.In Makino's view, every grain of food has a soul, and wasting it is disrespectful to them.In the past, my mother at home often said that he was hypocritical, always nagging that he would throw away fish and meat that were too big to finish. After a long time, his family always said that he was an old man but still saved.And now my body is too thin, I need to eat more and raise it slowly.

After eating, Makino was embarrassed to sit and do nothing: "Brother Jiang, let me wash the dishes."

In fact, apart from the wound left when his forehead hit the wall, he had no other trauma, the main reason was that he had been in a coma for the past few days, was too weak and had lost too much blood.Now that he is full and has some energy, he wants to help Jiang Ye with something. It is not good to be lazy, and standing for half an hour after a meal is a habit in his previous life to keep fit.After picking up the bowl and carrying it to the kitchen, Makino had the opportunity to take a serious look at this place.

The kitchen is not big, about four square meters.On the right hand side of the entrance is the stove. There are three stoves, two of which are larger, and the other is smaller than a frying pan, but it is very deep. It should be used to boil water and cook rice.There is already half a pot of hot water in the wooden cover on the top, and there are several pots next to the stove, filled with simple condiments.Probably for ventilation, a small window was opened above the stove, and a piece of fresh pork belly, as well as two bunches of chili and garlic were hung by the window.There is a large water tank behind the stove near the wall.On the left hand side of the entrance, there is a small shelf supported by simple wooden boards, on which several bags of grain are placed.There are also several baskets and dustpans hanging on the wall.

Makino looked around to find a large basin to wash the dishes, but found that there was no suitable one, so he had to put it in a small pot.In Tian Yu's memory, people in the village always add some water to the pot after cooking, let Yu Wen heat the water and then wash the dishes.Makino is a poor and fastidious person, so he always thinks this is a bit weird, and feels like there will be leftover vegetable soup in the pot.

But now the conditions are limited, so I have to do as the Romans do, and I will improve when conditions permit.Makino comforted himself optimistically, put the bowl in the pot, poured some alkali powder, and brushed it twice carefully.

While washing, I hummed: "Scrub, scrub, scrub... oh... oh... scrub, scrub one, two, three, go... oops, no bubbles, oops, it's not white, Oops, there is no water, oops..."

Accustomed to the fully automatic dishwasher in his previous life, which combined washing, drying, sterilizing and disinfecting, in this age without dishwashers or even dish soap, he deeply doubts whether the dishes have been cleaned properly!He cleaned the pot twice and poured water into it again to bring it to a boil. Fortunately, the fire hadn't gone out yet, so he just added one or two more firewood, otherwise he wouldn't be able to start the fire smoothly.Finally, put the bowl through the hot water once before neatly laying it on the wooden board to dry.

I found a quick rag to wipe the stove clean, washed it again and went to the main room to wipe the dining table where I had just eaten, then washed the rag and dried it and hung it next to the stove, went to the well to wash my hands, and then stood in the courtyard and had a good time. Consider where you live now.

Jiang Ye's house is not big, there are three houses in the middle of the yard.In the middle is the main room, where they ate just now, except for a table, three stools, and a bow and arrow hanging on the wall.On the left side of the main room is Jiang Ye's room, which is now occupied by Muye.No one used the right side before, and usually put some sundries there, but Jiang Ye spread a thatched pile over there for a temporary stay these days.The kitchen is on the left side of the courtyard gate, next to a well, which is very convenient for water, and there is a Chinese toon tree beside the well, which is short and about 1.7 meters tall as Makino is now.Makino has always felt that he is too short now, and wonders if he can grow taller in the future.Thinking of this, his determination to make money became more determined. In the future, he will buy more big bones to make soup. By the way, it is best to buy a cow. He must drink milk sooner or later. In his previous life, he was 1.8 meters tall. Only Mi Wu can do it.

Looking at the toon tree eagerly, it is already the season to eat young teeth, otherwise the small toon mixed with tofu and toon scrambled eggs would make my mouth water.

Facing the kitchen is a small thatched hut, in which tools and firewood are piled up in the ground.

You can go to the backyard through the main room, or pass through the path next to the kitchen.There is a thatched hut in the corner near the fence wall on the far right of the backyard, ahem... it's a toilet.

The backyard is about 60 square meters, and it looks very large when it is empty.There are also a lot of vegetables planted near the fence: cabbage, green peppers, green onions, and small peppers, as well as a few cucumber vines and tomatoes. Makino is very glad that although this place is backward, there are many types of vegetables, which are different from those in his previous life. The difference is not particularly large.

There was a thatched shed on one side of the yard, and when Makino looked over it, his eyes immediately glowed with gold.A majestic big black horse with shiny fur was leisurely chewing hay.

Then I saw an afterimage, galloping over at the speed of a [-]-meter sprint, a horse, a real horse!

In his previous life, except for once riding a small pony at a tourist attraction, he was afraid of crushing the thin little guy. He couldn't bear the condemnation of his conscience halfway, so he decisively stopped and led it to complete the whole journey.

When I was in college, the school cooperated with the racecourse for a year, and all the students of our school can study for three months at half price.Makino bought a full set of equipment excitedly, and waited for the appointed day to arrive, fully armed and rushed to the racecourse.As a result, the unlucky guy, probably with Mercury retrograde, went skiing in the Alps and broke his arm.I can only hang my broken arm to survive the eye addiction.

Then there is the kind of domesticated and very docile pony that I saw when I was playing in Iceland.It is said that it is a unique local breed, and their country only exports but not imports, and even horses from their own country are not allowed to come back, for fear that foreign breeds will confuse the blood.So much so that up to now, the whole country is still stocking pure little footed horses.

During Makino’s itinerary, he deliberately drove around the road just to ride around, but the racecourse did not know why he raised a cat. Makino was not afraid of this kind of animal, so he crawled on the window of the car cowardly and did not dare to get out. He was also laughed at by the fat little yellow-haired driver all the way.

He complained to his father about it for a long time after he came home.

Makino's grandmother's family is a very large family, and his mother is the eighth eldest.An uncle in the family went to the mountains and the countryside when he was young, but stayed there and never came back.Almost every household in my uncle's house raises horses for a living.Because it is backed by a virgin forest, the horses are kept in the forest, and it has always been famous.Makino's father was annoyed by his nagging, so he agreed to discuss with his uncle on his 24th birthday to buy a horse and help him raise it.On his birthday, his mother even took a photo to show him. It was a one-year-old maroon pony. Because his birth date was on the same day as him, his uncle decided on the spot.He also thought about going back to his uncle's house this time to see his horse and give it a name.

It was the first time I saw such a beautiful and tall horse.He wanted to reach out and touch it, but he was afraid that the horse would recognize his life, and it would be bad to scare it.

So I stood there giggling, watching the horses grazing, and said to myself: "Are you raised by Brother Jiang? What's your name? You look so handsome. Can I touch you? I can give you a hand." You go to find fresh grass, and I can also give you a bath, you just need to let me touch it, and it would be even better if I can ride it." Keke, it seems to be a bit insatiable.

Makino was talking to himself, not knowing when Jiang Ye was already standing behind him.Jiang Ye was secretly surprised. Many people were afraid of dark clouds, and usually dark clouds would not be so obedient to listen to a person's nonsense. If it was someone else, he would have kicked him up. Today is quiet.

The author has something to say: Wu Yun: I am a principled horse, not everyone will take care of me.

Jiang Ye: ??

Makino: I know, I know, I have personality!

The author's broken thoughts: One year, the author and his friends went to Iceland to play, and they were really happy to ride a horse. When they opened the door, oh my god, there was a meow squatting opposite, and the author ran back to the car.An American uncle sat next to him, mocking the author and saying: "You are so much bigger than it, what is there to be afraid of, go down and kill it." At that moment, the author just wanted to kick him down , kill these people who see my joke first, dare to say that I am big?Do you want to call me fat in another way? Hmph, I can't bear it!

Well, it's a new week, I wish you a happy new week!
