Happy Farmer's Life

The days of recuperation were happy for Liu Jingyuan, but painful for Du Weiming.Liu Jingyuan has nothing to do in bed every day, nothing more than eating and sleeping, drinking medicine when he wakes up, and then continuing to sleep.Du Weiming was already busy. Originally, he had not been here for a long time, and the family finally got better. Now he not only has to take care of a patient, but also boils medicine every day. This is not modern. Any disease can be cured with a few pills.Three meals a day of traditional Chinese medicine had to be boiled over the fire.Fortunately, it is winter, and there is not much work in the fields. Most farmers are resting or preparing some food for the New Year.

Du Weiming saved most of the remaining olives.Two large pits were built behind the house. First, the olives were wrapped in oilcloth, then lime was sprinkled around them, and then filled with soil.This method was learned from the village head next door.Some of the potatoes were also stored in another pit, and following their experience, they kept the seeds for spring plowing first and put them in the middle room.

Du Weiming is also preparing for the New Year's Eve recently.Pork, marinated two catties.A catty of the good ones was reserved for braised pork, and the rest were chopped into meat sauce, and some yams were added in the middle to make lion heads.The meatballs are rolled in the egg white and fried in the oil pan, and the rich meaty aroma keeps wafting out.A large pot of lion's head was fried.

Pick the best part of the mutton and cut it off for soup.Put the rest in a large pot to make braised lamb.The most important thing for braised mutton is to remove the fishy smell of mutton. Do not put a drop of water when cooking, and cook it all with wine.A whole pot of mutton is cooked and placed in a large basin. When you want to eat it, just dig a little and heat it up.Mutton is the best thing to eat in winter. After eating, the whole body will be steaming.

Beef has been changed in several ways.The selected beef tenderloin, fried with mushrooms, or fried with peppers are all delicious.A portion of braised beef.The rest is the soup. The hot beef soup, served with cabbage and vermicelli, is really nothing to say.

The rice cakes were agreed with the village chief. When their family made rice cakes, they gave Du Weiming a third. Du Weiming gave the village chief 30 Wen, which was regarded as buying these rice cakes.I bought tofu and dried tofu from Mrs. Wang in the village.Soaked in water, you can eat for a long time.

Du Weiming is busy on the stove every day, cooking vegetables in one pot and boiling medicine in the other, and he is so busy that he doesn't have a stool on his buttocks.But for Liu Jingyuan, the bursts of meaty fragrance that emanate every day is really a big test.It's not that the food is not good, but Chinese people have such a habit. During the New Year's Eve, the New Year's Eve dinner is the most sumptuous, and they can't wait to eat all the delicious food for a year.Usually, I don't pay much attention to it. Du Weiming is so busy every day, so he usually only has two dishes, one meat and one vegetarian.But Liu Jingyuan can't do it anymore, he is used to eating well, to be honest, Weiming's cooking is good, but the dishes are too few every day, not as varied as his breakfast.

In the evening, Du Weiming felt that he was not bored at all.In the past, when I was alone, I had nothing to do at night. After being tired during the day, I usually went to bed early at night.Although I bought an oil lamp, I didn't have much time to use it.Now with Jing Yuan's company, the evening will be much more interesting.Sometimes Liu Jingyuan would teach Du Weiming how to read at night, and sometimes he would talk about things outside, or play chess or something.In the chat with Liu Jingyuan, I learned that the current country is called Jing Guo, and there are two other countries around it, Zhou Guo and Wu Guo.Jingguo is the largest country. The monarch is old and has 3 sons.After several generations, Jingguo is now entering a period of rapid development, so it can be said that the people live and work in peace and contentment.Du Weiming found that when Jing Yuan said these things, there would be a kind of wandering expression on his face, and he didn't know what he was thinking about.When Du Weiming asked further, he refused to say anything, just changed.

There is another thing that makes him happy. Although the characters at this time are different from modern Chinese characters, they are somewhat similar to our traditional characters.After Jing Yuan taught for a few days, Du Weiming had already learned more than 100 basic characters.Fortunately, I have previous learning background, otherwise I really can't learn fast.Du Weiming asked Jing Yuan to write the characters he was not familiar with on the paper, and he wrote the pinyin on it. Jing Yuan was very interested in the pinyin marked by Du Weiming, and Du Weiming explained that it was convenient for him to understand.

In this way, one of them recuperates his injuries during the day, the other works, and they chat and study together at night, and they live a fulfilling life.The wound on Liu Jingyuan's body had already healed, so Dr. Li was invited to make a diagnosis. He said that it was an internal injury and nothing serious. Finally, Liu Jingyuan could go to the ground.Putting on clothes and walking around outside the house, I found that this is a mountain village with simple folk customs.Although the village is not big, the mountains behind the village are still lush and green, and there are not many people on the small road.Liu Jingyuan walked around the village and then went back.The village doesn't seem to have much contact with the outside world, and I don't know what the situation outside is like. Forget it, let's talk about recovering from the injury first.

Du Weiming looked at Liu Jingyuan's clothes and was a little speechless. In fact, from his clothes and conversation, Du Weiming found that he should be from a rich family.The material of the clothes is high-quality silk and satin. Although the clothes were torn, when he asked Aunt Zhang to mend them, she kept saying that she had never seen such a good material.But it was a bit awkward to wear mended clothes on him.Because the opening on the clothes is quite large, you can still see the left one and the right one after mending.After thinking about it, Du Weiming found a new piece of cotton cloth in the box at home, found some cotton, and took it to Aunt Zhang's house next door and asked him to make a new cotton coat for Liu Jingyuan. Bar.

Yesterday, the village head sent him 5 fish, 2 herrings and 3 crucian carps.Everyone went to the river to catch the fish. The weather was cold and the river was frozen.Two youths in the village first broke the ice to make a big hole, and the fish inside jumped out one after another. Nets were pulled up on both sides of the river, and everyone worked together to catch the fish.They really caught a lot. According to the head, the village head distributed the fish to every household.Those with a large family get more, and those with a small family get less.Du Weiming divided the 5 fish according to 2 people. Liu Jingyuan is his cousin.A herring Du Weiming pickled the salted fish, and the crucian carp was ready to be braised.There was also a herring, which Du Weiming decided to keep for fish fillets or something.

Busy and busy, the New Year's Eve is here.Du Weiming got up early this morning, ready to slaughter the chicken.In fact, Du Weiming was still a little afraid of slaughtering chickens. In the end, Liu Jingyuan did the job.Du Weiming has been busy since the morning, Liu Jingyuan's injury is almost healed at this time, but he has basically nothing to do with these tasks, so Du Weiming arranged a job for him, lighting a fire.Du Weiming tossed out a table of dishes in the evening.

Braised lamb, lion's head, fried beef tenderloin with mushrooms, cumin lamb, braised pork, braised fish, halal chicken, homemade tofu, fried cabbage, and a big bowl of hot beef soup.Du Weiming had been thinking about waiting for his dishes to be cooked, and they would probably be cold, so he thought of a way to put the dishes that were missing in front of him on a plate and put them in a wooden box. cotton coat.Du Weiming took the new clothes for Jing Yuan to change, and Liu Jingyuan wanted to cry at this moment.He wears new clothes every year, but he has never encountered such a warm scene in 18 years.Although it is rich in clothing and food, it has never enjoyed the warmth of home.The two put on new clothes and ate the New Year's Eve dinner around the table.This scene was deeply imprinted in Liu Jingyuan's mind, and it also changed him.
