In the end of the world, I made my fortune by farming my boyfriend [farming]

Although this slingshot is only handmade by a young boy in his early ten years, it is quite exquisite.

Looking at Xu Jing's amazed expression, Liang Liangzi was very proud, "How is it?"

This slingshot is heavy in the hand, and the overall color is reddish. The bitter tree branch has obviously been carefully polished, and the handle is very smooth, and the wax on it can be felt carefully.The tops of both sides of the tree branch were scraped carefully with a knife, showing a small groove. The milky yellow latex tubes were tightly bound to the grooves on both sides.

In the middle of the latex tube is tied a piece of rubber, probably the remnant of a car tire.

"Well done."

"That's it." Liang Liangzi was beaming, and gestured with his palms open: "I only sanded it with sandpaper, and I sanded it three times. After sanding, I melted two long candles to wax, and the hot wax oil dripped on the bitter I have waxed every inch of the tree branches at least three times, and it will definitely not dry out."

"Thank you."

"You're welcome, you teach me how to learn, and I'll teach you how to play." Liang Liangzi was a little shy, and waved his hands back, "I'll go back first, just don't hit anyone." After walking a few steps, he retreated again, teaching Xu Jing: "By the way, Liang Xiaobao told you to give him the slingshot. Don't give it to him. If he pesters you, just say that I only lend you the slingshot."

Xu Jing nodded solemnly, held the slingshot in his hand, and watched him bouncing forward.

Liang Liangzi’s elaborate slingshots caused a wave among half-grown children in Renyuan’s living area. Bitterwood tree branches, latex tubes, and rubber leathers are not easy to obtain, and many children can’t do anything because they are too greedy.

Xiao Bao is one of them. He asked for the slingshot in Xu Jing's hand many times after he saw it. Li Yinxiu couldn't stand it anymore and asked Xu Jing to borrow him to play for a while. Xu Jing never let go. It was Liang Liangzi who killed the slingshot Lend him to play.

Unable to bear Xiaobao's entanglement, Xu Jing finally simply gave the slingshot to Qi Yunzhi for safekeeping.

Once the slingshot was in Qi Yunzhi's hands, it became translucent, and Xiaobao couldn't find it no matter how talented he was.

"Where did you hide the slingshot?" Xiao Bao asked, pouted.

"I returned it."

Xiaobao didn't believe it, so he ran to Xu Jing's room to search carefully, but found nothing, so he could only pester Li Yinxiu depressedly, asking her to tell Liang Guotao to make him a slingshot as well.

Xu Jing felt a little relieved after getting rid of Xiaobao, but when he turned his head, he saw Qi Yunzhi's hand moving quickly on the slingshot. After a few strokes, all the latex tubes on the slingshot fell off.

"!" Xu Jing reached out to get the slingshot in Qi Yunzhi's hand, but he avoided Xu Jing and continued to play with the slingshot.

"Brother Qi!" Xu Jing called him, he raised his head and smiled at Xu Jing.

Xiaobao and Li Yinxiu were both nearby, Xu Jing didn't want to make too much of a move, so he had to follow Qi Yunzhi with a blank stare.

Qi Yunzhi removed the latex tube from the slingshot, fiddled with it a few times, wound it back tightly, and handed it to Xu Jing.

Xu Jing stretched out his hand to pull the slingshot, and found that after Qi Yunzhi adjusted it, the string of the slingshot was more stable and smoother, unlike just now, there was still a slight twist.Even if Xu Jing doesn't usually play with slingshots, he can still feel that this slingshot is more useful.

Xu Jing was stunned, not knowing who Big Brother Qi was, he seemed familiar with weapons.

Xu Jing played with the slingshot for a while, then handed it back to Qi Yunzhi for safekeeping.

He planned to find another opportunity to go up the mountain the next day, and let Qi Yunzhi try to see if he could catch any prey.

Early the next morning, Xu Jing, who had just fallen asleep, yawned and was woken up by Li Yinxiu to give him instructions before Xu Jing heard that Liang's family was going to squeeze peanut oil, and asked him to follow him to see things.

Xu Jing rubbed his face, followed Li Yinxiu into the kitchen, ate most of a bowl of breakfast hastily, and stood on the grain drying field waiting for Liang Guotao and Guo Yingzhen to move baskets of peanuts to the wooden cart.

After several times of washing and drying, the peanuts are whitish in appearance, and each one is very hard.

The peanuts in Liang Guotao's family are not big. Most of the peanuts have only two peanut kernels in one peanut, and a few have three kernels, and even four kernels are pitifully rare.

The peanut yield is not high, but the peanut kernels are very plump, and there is basically no shell phenomenon. Once the peanuts are peeled off, the peanut kernels wrapped in red are next to the peanut kernels, which is very gratifying.

Xu Jing guarded Liang Guotao's pile of peanuts in front of the oil workshop, looking left and right at other peanuts.The people around are similar to Liang Guotao's family. The peanuts are generally small, but plump.

Liang Guotao's family squeezed peanuts relatively late, and there were not many people who came to extract oil from the same batch, and Liang Guotao's family ranked fourth.

Xu Jing sat on the wooden cart and watched Liang Guotao and Guo Yingzhen pick up a load of peanuts into the oil mill and pour them into the funnel of the oil mill.

Peanuts are leaked into the hopper, and the machine below is humming. The peanuts coming out of another conveyor belt are broken into peanut pieces slightly larger than corn kernels. in two large woks.

There is a mixer in the frying pan that keeps stirring slowly to prevent the crushed peanuts from being burnt by the fire underneath.There is a steady stream of heat from the wok, making the whole oil shop look like a steamer, and the aroma of roasted peanuts is also steamed with the heat.

A steady stream of crushed peanuts are put into the frying pan and then sent back to the press machine. The machine cannot screen out the peanut shells. When oil is pressed, the peanut shells and peanut kernels are put into the oil press together.

"It's our turn soon." Guo Yingzhen reached out and pushed Xu Jing's shoulder, and handed him a wooden bucket, "Bring the bucket over, let's fill the oil residue first."

The oil that was squeezed out at the beginning was a bit cloudy, with crushed peanuts and peanut bran mixed in it, and it had to settle before pouring it into the oil tank for storage.

Xu Jing took the wooden barrel to line up at the place where the oil was picked up, and waited for the people in the oil mill to tell him to change the barrel.

The efficiency of Renyuan's living quarters was not bad. In more than two hours, Liang Guotao's family ran out of oil.Liang Guotao and Guo Yingzhen carefully carried the oil cylinder onto the cart, fixed it with long straps, and then went down to pick up the peanut bran obtained from oil extraction.

For some poor families, when there are not many coarse grains and vegetables left, they often mix peanut bran into the pot to cook.

After filling up all the things one by one, Liang Guotao and Guo Yingzhen pushed the cart and took Xu Jing back.

Guo Yingzhen did the lunch herself, and there was a lot of oil left over, so Guo Yingzhen didn't spare too much oil.Scoop out half a spoonful of oil residue from the wooden barrel, she put the garlic and chili into the hot pot, and then put the oil residue into the pot, after the spices forced out the fragrance, Guo Yingzhen poured the loach into the pot, "Zi La" There was a hot sound, and the whole room was full of fragrance.

Oil residue loach, oil residue bean chili, oil residue green vegetables, fresh oil residue plus fresh dishes, when the fire is pressed, the aroma is rolling.

The naughty little treasure couldn't hold back, and would sneak into the kitchen from time to time to steal a few vegetables to eat.

During the meal, Liang Guotao's family sat at the dining table, each with a big bowl of rice.

Today, Guo Yingzhen cooks rice with no other coarse grains, just white and fragrant rice.The rice that was harvested in June was dried in the sun in the sun, and then sent to be ground and boiled in a pot. The rice is fragrant and sticky, and it seems that it can still taste the sun.

Even without any dishes, Xu Jing could eat two or three bowls of this kind of rice by himself.

He put the vegetables into his own bowl, and quickly finished a bowl. After filling the rice again, he picked up the vegetables again, and then made a look that was too spicy, and took the rice bowl to the kitchen to find water to drink.

The Liang family is used to Xu Jing going to the kitchen to drink water in the middle of a meal. They have both reprimanded and forced Xu Jing not to leave the table with his rice bowl, but he never listened. He just listened silently when he scolded him. .

Both Li Yinxiu and Guo Yingzhen went to the kitchen to check, and found no trace of Xu Jing throwing away the food.Over time, the Liang family had no choice but to turn a blind eye and let him go.

As soon as he entered the kitchen, Xu Jing quickly turned on the watch, adjusted the alert mode, put the rice into Qi Yunzhi's hand, and signaled him to eat quickly.

He himself quickly took out a gourd that had been hidden in advance from the pile of firewood under the stove, opened the plug, stuffed the funnel into it, and poured part of the oil residue and oil in the kitchen into the gourd with sharp eyesight and hands.

The gourd was relatively big, so Xu Jing stuffed most of the gourd oil and oil residue into it, quickly covered the gourd back, and handed the gourd to Qi Yunzhi, asking him to take it back to his room and hide it.

At this time Qi Yunzhi had finished the bowl of rice, Xu Jing took the bowl, put the bowl in the wooden basin, went out as if nothing had happened, sat at the table and waited for the Liang family to finish eating, now the task of clearing the table and washing the dishes has been handed over to him. give him.

The Liang family ate very restrainedly. There were three dishes on the table for seven people to eat, and there were still some loach and black bean chili left.

Li Yinxiu took the dishes to the kitchen and put them away, carefully closing the cabinet door tightly.Under her watch, Xu Jing honestly finished washing the dishes and cleaning the stove before taking a nap in the room.

Woke up early in the morning, and Xu Jing was called around by Guo Yingzhen in the morning, and he never took a rest, and he was exhausted when he came back.

Seeing that he couldn't even open his eyelids, Li Yinxiu didn't wake him up because he was afraid that he would get sick again.

Xu Jing slept until the sun was westward, then got up yawning and went to the kitchen to boil the family's bath water.Liang Dashi and Liang Ermei were going to live in school in the evening, so he boiled the water earlier today.

Guo Yingzhen asked Liang Dashi and Liang Ermei to finish the rest of the meal at noon, and they only ate vegetable soup and sweet potatoes at night.Liang Xiaobao saw him rolling around on the ground and made a fuss, so Guo Yingzhen almost didn't reward him with fried pork with bamboo shoots.Li Yinxiu persuaded him and gave him a bowl of steamed eggs, and then he pouted and reluctantly began to eat dinner.

Xu Jing didn't eat much for dinner. After eating, when Liang's family fell asleep, he got up lightly, took the gourd with oil residue, turned on the watch's alert function and went out.

As soon as he left the Renyuan living area, Xu Jing dragged Qi Yunzhi to the wilderness facing the Renyuan living area as usual, but Qi Yunzhi suddenly picked him up, turned around and walked in another direction.

Surprised, Xu Jing sat up straight in his arms, grabbed his shoulders and looked forward, asking, "Brother Qi, where are we going?"

This was the first time that Qi Yunzhi took him to a certain place on his own initiative, Xu Jing had many thoughts flashing through his mind, and he had no clue about the destination of their trip.

After a while, Qi Yunzhi understood what Xu Jing said, and replied, "In the room."

"???" Xu Jing wanted to scratch his head, but he couldn't figure out which room they could go to.
