Everything in the new house was missing, Ye Lanzhou looked at the chicken coop, and then remembered that he hadn't prepared a place to raise chickens in advance.

It is also easy to make a chicken pen. Bamboo strips or nylon nets are used to enclose a piece of land, which can provide shelter from wind and rain.In addition, it is necessary to keep warm in winter and avoid heat in summer.

Ye Lanzhou was about to go to the town again, and asked Gu Xilou casually when he left: "What do you need? I'm going to the town again to buy some things."

The hand covered with snow-white glutinous rice stopped, Gu Xilou lowered his eyes as if thinking, and finally shook his head slightly, "There is nothing necessary, you can go. Be careful on the road."

Ye Lanzhou nodded, turned the accelerator and went to the town.He first went to a fishing tackle store to buy a 20-meter nylon net, then went to a furniture store to buy a half-person-high solid wood table, bought some cheap old grains to make chicken food, and bought some miscellaneous tools.

After returning with a full load again, Ye Lanzhou started to build a chicken coop: first determine the position of the chicken pen next to the pig pen, fix the nylon net with iron wire and stones, and make a simple chicken coop four meters square against the wall. Layer water-proof film and shading cloth, sprinkle a piece of chicken food on the ground, and then put all the chickens in the chicken coop into it.

As soon as the little rooster landed on the ground, it first held its head high and held its chest high to inspect the circle of chicken pens, yelling "Ooooh", the fiery red rooster's comb moved back and forth with its head, and its black bean-like eyes still looked vigilant. The 15 pullets were much more honest and simple, they spread out as soon as they landed on the ground, and ate the old corn scattered on the ground.

Ye Lanzhou observed for a while, and saw that except for the little rooster walking around vigilantly, the hens were all eating quietly, so she turned and walked away.He reminded himself in his heart: Tomorrow, he will buy some wheat straw with the farmer and make chicken coops.

After finishing the chicken coop, Ye Lanzhou put the fresh pork front legs on the wooden table in the courtyard with a bang.The height of the wooden table is at the height of Ye Lanzhou's legs, which is convenient for him to bend down and exert himself.The tabletop has been scrubbed many times. After putting the pig's front leg on it, Ye Lanzhou tore open the coarse salt bought today, and slowly sprinkled white crystals all over the whole pig's leg.

It was Ye Lanzhou's first time to marinate ham by himself. He checked the information on his mobile phone and knew that the key point was to drain the blood from the pork leg and the method of curing.After smearing the entire front leg with coarse salt, Ye Lanzhou took a handful of snow-white salt in his palm, and rubbed the surface of the meat vigorously starting from the pig's trotters, that is, to let the salt seep into the pig's skin.After rubbing the whole pig's front leg over and over several times, Ye Lanzhou's sweat had already soaked his clothes.

Panting heavily, Ye Lanzhou pinched the cloth on his chest with his fingertips to wipe off the sweat on his forehead. The hem of his black clothes was pulled up, revealing a slender waist that was so white that it glowed, and the outline of muscles could be seen faintly.His heart was beating like a drum, and he was shaking from his forearm to his fingertips, and his shoulders, waist and abdomen muscles were slightly sore.

It's like this if you haven't done heavy work... Squeezing the upper arm muscles that are soft but not strong, Ye Lanzhou laughed at himself: Before wearing a book, I was also an office worker who sat in front of the computer for a long time. Be careful not to slip when changing a bucket of water.

If the ham is to be marinated well, it does not depend on a day's work.Kneading and squeezing like today will take another month.After kneading, you need to press the slate to completely drain the blood, otherwise the inside of the ham will rot.After pressing, it needs to be hung and dried.If you want to eat homemade delicious food, sometimes you have to work so hard, you can't be lazy.

Ye Lanzhou stood and rested for a while, and then washed his hands with the faucet in the yard.Shaking off the water drops on his fingertips, Ye Lanzhou turned around and saw that Gu Xilou had been completed, and the two lotus root segments were filled with glutinous rice, so he couldn't help grinning at him: "Thanks for your hard work!"

Each segment of lotus root is as long as a forearm, which is enough for two people to eat two meals.Gu Xilou's taste Ye Lanzhou is not clear, he himself prefers sweet and spicy flavors.Even if he is already full, if you serve him a plate of glutinous rice and lotus root, he can finish it all by himself.

We all know that sweets are packed in another stomach.

The ingredients and process of making sweet-scented osmanthus glutinous rice and lotus root are very simple, and Ye Lanzhou has long been familiar with it.He covered the lotus root section stuffed with glutinous rice with the lotus root cover he cut off before, and used a toothpick to secure the seal.In order to make the lotus root taste soft, cook it in a pressure cooker for an hour.Before cooking, Ye Lanzhou puts coarse brown sugar and yellowed rock sugar into the pot.

During the hour of cooking glutinous rice and lotus root, Ye Lanzhou was going to take a trip to the back mountain.When he was in the vegetable market in the morning, he didn't buy sweet-scented osmanthus. He asked the owner of the fishing tackle shop and found out that there were many wild sweet-scented osmanthus trees on the mountain.Things that can be easily obtained in a trip, without weighing the scales, no one will sell them in the country fair.

At this time, it was almost noon, and the sun was shining brightly, but after autumn, the air became cooler, and the sun was not so hot that people were not directly on the body.Ye Lanzhou thought for a while, took two sun hats, handed one to Gu Xilou, and offered an invitation: "Do you want to go for a walk on the mountain?"

He saw that Gu Xilou's walking was almost normal in the past two days, and he thought that his foot injury was almost healed.This time they only picked osmanthus, and they didn't go far, just to let the other party move a little bit, and save them from lying down for a long time and being stiff.

Ye Lanzhou walked in front with a piece of white gauze, Gu Xilou took the sun hat, put it on quietly and followed.After walking for 50 meters, Ye Lanzhou could smell the faint fragrance of sweet-scented osmanthus, and after walking dozens of meters, the fragrance of sweet-scented osmanthus became stronger and stronger.Following the scent, Ye Lanzhou pushed aside a few bushes of dense branches, and saw a golden osmanthus full of flowers.

This golden osmanthus tree should be more than 20 years old, and its trunk diameter has exceeded 20 cm.Among the lush dark green leaves, clusters and clusters of golden flower buds are delightful.After approaching, the overly strong aroma of sweet-scented osmanthus makes people almost drunk.

Ye Lanzhou had already picked up a two-meter-long dead branch on the way. He spread the white gauze under the golden osmanthus branch he liked, and tapped the branch full of golden osmanthus with the dead branch.The little golden flowers fell down one after another like snow, and soon fell on the white gauze.

Thinking about coming, Ye Lanzhou gathered the osmanthus flowers he had collected, and moved to a seat to continue collecting.When he stopped, the golden osmanthus flowers in the white gauze had piled up into a pleasing hill.

Ye Lanzhou smiled so much that his eyes narrowed. He wrapped the sweet-scented osmanthus with a cloth to prevent it from being blown away by the wind, and said to Gu Xilou: "There are so many sweet-scented osmanthus, only a little of the glutinous rice lotus root will be used, and the rest we can make sweet-scented osmanthus cake to eat." !"

Gu Xilou had just taken over the work of moving the gauze and picking flowers in a very good way, so Ye Lanzhou said "we".When Ye Lanzhou asked, "Do you like sweet-scented osmanthus cake?" and walked in front, Gu Xilou gave a soft "hmm" and wanted to keep up, but his footsteps stopped and he felt a pull.He looked down and saw that it was an unknown tree by the side of the road. Its wild branches were scattered all over the place, and one of them caught his hair.

A dozen or so strands of black and slender hair seemed to be stuck to the branches by glue. Gu Xilou tried to untie it, but he still had no expression on his face with his head lowered. He just didn't waste time and was going to put this hair Direct brute force tore off.Just as he was about to use force, a voice sounded beside him, "Is your hair tangled? Your hair is too long."

The man stuffed the cloth bag into his arms casually, and Gu Xilou hugged it with one hand.After the man approached, the green leaves were blown by his hot breath, and there was a soft "pop", and the small branch was broken by him. He held the strand of hair in one hand, and moved the branch around with the other.When he let go, the branch fell silently on the carpet of fallen leaves, and the dozen or so hairs were freed without any damage.

Ye Lanzhou warned: "Be careful with these horizontal branches, they are the easiest to catch clothes and hair."

Gu Xilou lowered his head to express his thanks, and his breath was filled with the strong fragrance of sweet-scented osmanthus.When Ye Lanzhou lowered his head, he could see a few osmanthus flowers dotted in the other's hair.After a pause, Gu Xilou still reminded: "There are sweet-scented osmanthus flowers in your hair."

"Oh? Where?" Ye Lanzhou lowered his head, clapped his hands on his hair, and messed up his hair. When he raised his face again, his fair face was inexplicably younger by the messy hair, and matched with a pair of watery lights With peach-blossom eyes that were red at the corners of his eyes, he looked like a college student studying at school, with a ignorant and innocent expression.

"There is one more, caught in your hair." Gu Xilou pointed out the location, seeing Ye Lanzhou's white hand rubbing back and forth between the black hair, but he couldn't find it, so Gu Xilou simply stretched out his hand to him Picked it off.

"Oh! I finally took it off." Ye Lanzhou brushed off his hair casually, took the cloth bag that Gu Xilou handed back, and asked him again: "How are your feet? It's easier to sprain your feet when you go down the mountain. Do you want me to help you?"

Gu Xilou: "...OK."

Then Ye Lanzhou grabbed his upper arm with one hand, held the cloth bag in the other, and helped Gu Xilou down the mountain like a policeman imprisoning a prisoner.

Gu Xilou: "..."

In the afternoon, the person who dug the fish pond came. After seeing the location designated by Ye Lanzhou, he said that the construction could start. However, considering the greenhouse to be built at the same time, he suggested that Ye Lanzhou move the fish pond to another place.

Ye Lanzhou originally planned to dig a [-]-square-meter fish pond in one mu of land, and make a gentle slope, leaving half an mu of open space to raise chickens and ducks.There is another half an acre of land to build a greenhouse, and the remaining one and a half mu of fields are used to grow some grains such as wheat and corn on a daily basis.The location order is the innermost greenhouse, the middle fish pond, and the outermost field.

After listening to the suggestion, Ye Lanzhou moved the fish pond to the outermost side, with the field in the middle, which is convenient for the construction of fish ponds and greenhouses.I don't know if we can plant a crop of winter wheat after the completion of the project.

The people in the vegetable market knew each other, and the people who built the shed also came together. After seeing the small half-acre field that Gu Xilou pointed out, he said that when he came back to the town, he would ask two helpers to get all the materials and start working.

After Ye Lanzhou explained the size and specifications and other requirements, the builder said to go back and prepare the materials, and come back early tomorrow morning.It gets dark quickly in the mountains, especially after the summer, when they prepare the materials and hand them over, it will definitely be too late today.

After the two parties negotiated the price, they agreed to start construction tomorrow morning.The person who dug the fish pond also said that he would go back and arrange the excavator and come back tomorrow morning.After everyone had left, Gu Xilou checked the time at three o'clock in the afternoon. It was not long after lunch, and it was still early for dinner, so it happened to be afternoon tea.

The glutinous rice lotus root was boiled in a pressure cooker for an hour, and then it was taken out and placed in a clean white porcelain bowl to dissipate heat. By this time, it had already cooled completely.Ye Lanzhou put the small milk pot on the stove, scooped two spoonfuls of brown sugar juice from boiled lotus root into it, heated it until it became thick, and then poured it on the obliquely cut glutinous rice and lotus root slices.

The thick amber-like red-yellow sugar juice wraps the lotus root slices, and Ye Lanzhou sprinkles the washed and dried osmanthus at the end, and a plate of sweet and glutinous osmanthus glutinous rice and lotus root is ready.

Cut a lotus root segment into two plates, exactly one plate for each person, as a snack for afternoon tea.The tea was Dahongpao brought with him when he moved. Ye Lanzhou boiled a pot with a glass pot.

Yaotai Yufeng and Golden Queen were placed under the courtyard wall by Ye Lanzhou, and they happened to be in the mirror when seen from their seats in the hall.The autumn wind blows, and the white jade and golden flower clusters tremble slightly, which is lovely and moving.

Next to the plate containing sweet-scented osmanthus glutinous rice and lotus root, there are sweet-scented osmanthus dried on dry white gauze.The scent of sweet-scented osmanthus mixed with the fragrance of Tieguanyin lingers between the nostrils of the person and cannot be wiped away.

Ye Lanzhou took a sip of lotus root slices and a sip of tea, and sighed comfortably: "It would be great if I could sit in the yard and eat and drink while the wind blows. I will buy a large outdoor parasol and two wicker chairs another day. In this way, you can sit outside when it’s cool, which is more comfortable than being stuffy in the room.”

Gu Xilou nodded slightly when he heard the words. After waking up from the hospital, he never objected to anything Ye Lanzhou proposed.Now he nodded silently, Ye Lanzhou didn't care, and the two continued to drink tea with dessert.

Everyone eats a plate of glutinous rice and lotus root, so today's dinner is a bit late.

Because no one has been sent to install the network yet, and there is no entertainment on the phone, Ye Lanzhou just feels bored after dinner.Go to bed early, and toss and turn still very energetic. When he finally fell asleep vaguely, in the dead of midnight, the sound of roosters crowing suddenly sounded, as well as the flustered crowing of hens.

Ye Lanzhou woke up instantly: A thief broke into the house?

The author has something to say: friendly reminder:

In real life, it is impossible to destroy arable land and turn it into a fishpond at will. You need to apply for approval to start construction!

I didn't know this until I checked the information. Cultivated land is very precious!
