green grass on the stream

Half a month was up soon, Ji Tingyu went to the city to get clothes, Qi Yanfan told him not to forget to buy things, and the two separated at the fork in the mountain.

Ji Tingyu headed east towards Dahe Town, while Qi Yanfan turned north over a small hill to Taohua Village.

Originally, he planned to follow Ji Tingyu to the town, and the two of them said that the four-hour round trip would not be so boring, but Ji Tingyu said that he could handle all the things, and asked Qi Yanfan to hurry up and sow seeds.

Counting the time, it was the same. Originally, the small days were leisurely and leisurely, and he didn't know when it would be. But that day, Qi Yanfan suddenly discovered that the sweet potatoes he dug earlier had sprouted from the joints, and he was shocked that the spring was deep.

He thought of planting some soybeans full of treasures, so he planned to make fermented bean curd at Li Xiaogai's house.

"I have beans. If you want to be seeds, I will pick them for you." Li Xiaogai was still friendly and enthusiastic to him as always.

Qi Yanfan asked about tofu again, Li Xiaogai said: "Basically every family makes tofu by themselves, if you don't make it yourself, you can exchange it with beans."

Qi Yanfan took a break from making tofu.

Qi Yanfan urged Ji Tingyu to come back after eating lunch in the town, but when he came back from Taohua Village, he chewed the dry lunch alone, but he was worried about why Ji Tingyu hadn't come back, so he had to cast aside himself.

In the afternoon, Ji Tingyu finally came back, and Qi Yanfan immediately flew out to meet him like a bird.Ji Tingyu unloaded the things on his shoulders, and Qi Yanfan immediately handed over a hot towel.Ji Tingyu smiled, took it and wiped his face and hands, and stretched his shoulders and neck.He pointed to a pile of things on the ground, and told Qi Yanfan which ones were rice noodles, which ones were clothes, and so on.

Qi Yanfan nodded like a chicken pecking rice, and pulled Ji Tingyu to push him on the bench: "You have worked hard, what do you want to eat?"

Ji Tingyu said: "I bought meat, you have to deal with it."

"Okay." Qi Yanfan responded, and went to the kitchen with rice noodles and meat first.He took the meat out of the bamboo basket. There were two slings of meat tied with straw, one was lean meat and the other was two ribs.

"I also bought a kitchen knife." Ji Tingyu's voice came from behind him.

Qi Yanfan looked back, and saw Ji Tingyu leaning on the door frame looking at him, tall and long-legged, with a lazy expression.Qi Yanfan took a sneak peek, then turned his eyes away, and flipped out of the bamboo basket. Underneath were a sharpened kitchen knife and a black machete.

"You're still thoughtful, I forgot to buy a knife." He showed a gentle smile to Ji Tingyu, and then took the new kitchen knife eager to try.He took out the chopping board, put the ribs on it, and chopped down hard.Click, the chopping board splits in two.

Qi Yanfan was a little dumbfounded.

Ji Tingyu was also taken aback, and quickly took his hand to check if he was injured.The heat in his hand was fleeting, only to hear Ji Tingyu say: "Coincidentally, we are also going to try this woodcutter to see if it works well."

Qi Yanfan silently followed Ji Tingyu and the two walked south. Ji Tingyu asked him, "What kind of tree is better for cutting boards?"

Qi Yanfan said: "I heard that ginkgo biloba is specially selected in some places, and it is very useful." But he looked up at these trees, but he couldn't tell what kind of trees they were, so he said: "Just cut a tree of similar size. That's it."

Ji Tingyu nodded.I tried a few times towards a dead tree slightly thicker than the mouth of the bowl, and then pushed hard in the opposite direction.Qi Yanfan took the sickle and lifted off the stumbling branches, and put the tree down on the ground.

Ji Tingyu said: "It's easy to chop."

Qi Yanfan pointed to the dead trees that hadn't sprouted and said, "These trees are all dead, we can use them as firewood."

Ji Tingyu found another tree that was much thicker, and carefully chopped off a section of it. Seeing that the wood was also very delicate, he prepared to polish it into a cutting board, and called Qi Yanfan to call it a day.

"Let's do the rest tomorrow."

"it is good."

Qi Yanfan heated up the oil, took out the pork ribs marinated with chopped wild garlic cloves, cut them into small pieces on the broken cutting board, and coated them with a layer of flour paste.

Dip the flour paste with chopsticks to test the oil temperature, then throw the spare ribs in piece by piece for frying. It is absolutely unthinkable for ordinary people to use so much oil.

After finishing the simple version of garlic pork ribs, Qi Yanfan put another egg drop soup to comfort Ji Tingyu who made great efforts today.

When the rice and vegetables were served, Qi Yanfan put a piece of pork ribs in the rice bowl for Ji Tingyu, and peeked at his reaction.

Ji Tingyu took a look at the rib, but he picked it up and put it in his mouth freely.The flour skin is deep-fried until it is browned and crispy, but the meat inside is very tender and springy, with plenty of garlic, it is delicious to chew after taking a bite.

"It's very well done, you should eat more." Ji Tingyu didn't bring him any food.

Qi Yanfan groaned, picked up the bowl to eat.

In the morning, the humidity in the mountains was heavy, so Ji Tingyu continued to cut the cutting board under the eaves, while Qi Yanfan divided the germinated sweet potatoes into pieces and buried them in the soil. Afraid that the seedlings would freeze, he added a layer of withered grass on top.

The weather was still fine today, and when the sun became stronger, Ji Tingyu picked up the machete and went to the mountain to chop bamboo.

Because Qi Yanfan mentioned that this land has been uncultivated for a long time, we should pile up some fertilizer first. I heard that mixing plant ash into the soil is also a good way, but he suffers from not even having a dustpan.Ji Tingyu heard it in his ears and kept it in his heart, so he went to chop bamboo for him.

Qi Yanfan felt ironic in his heart, recently he was always approaching Ji Tingyu intentionally or unintentionally, Ji Tingyu seemed to be aware of it but didn't seem to, and behaved as usual.

Qi Yanfan thinks that life is always going on, at worst, he can cook frogs in lukewarm water for a longer time, but it is impossible to give up.

The bamboo was chopped down in a short while, and a few bamboo shoots were dug out along the way.Ji Tingyu split the bamboo into thin bamboo strips as much as possible.

Qi Yanfan picked out a few soft ones, and began to weave a dustpan or bamboo basket according to the shape he remembered.He can still weave in a criss-cross pattern, but the difficulty lies in the ending.He took the only bamboo basket and studied it for a long time, and finally made a shallow basket that was not very upright.He was not very satisfied with the work, so he was too embarrassed to show it to Ji Tingyu.

He tossed and tossed a few times, and finally made a bamboo basket that would not leak through the bottom, and it was no problem to hold ashes.

He returned to the kitchen, picked up the plant ash accumulated for so long, put it into a bamboo basket, and sprinkled it all on the vegetable field.He turned over the ground with an iron rake and sowed the soybeans, peanuts and remaining radish seeds that he got yesterday.

After finishing all this, he clapped his hands and went over to see how Ji Tingyu's chopping board was being cut.

Ji Tingyu looked at him and smiled, "Little Cat."

Little cat or something... Qi Yanfan felt that these three simple words could make him blush and his heart beat, so he wiped his face with the back of his hand to hide it, and asked, "You, how is your chopping board doing?" , do you want me to help?"

"Okay, you can try it later." Ji Tingyu pointed, then picked up a round stick and handed it to him, "This is the rolling pin I sharpened, you can try it too."

Rolling, noodles, sticks!The scallion pancake with his finger prints appeared in front of Qi Yanfan's eyes again, and his face was probably blushing. He took the rolling pin in a panic, and picked up the heavy cutting board: "I'll go wash it and try it!"

In the kitchen, he managed to calm down his blushing, and unconsciously rolled the rolling pin on the cutting board in his hand.

Unexpectedly, Ji Tingyu pressed up from behind him, and the obvious body temperature of a man wrapped him in it.Ji Tingyu said: "How is it? Is there any handicap? Do you want me to process it again?"

His voice sounded right next to his ears, and Qi Yanfan couldn't help imagining the scene where he hugged him with both hands, and it took him a long time to find his own voice: "It's pretty good."

"That's good." After saying that, the scorching body temperature went away from Qi Yanfan.

Qi Yanfan stood blankly in the kitchen, the sun shone into the room, the dust danced in the air, and the spring birds outside were singing happily and chirping.

When will his love come?
