Hua Qiang and Hua Zhao went all over the village. Except for the Huashan family, everyone else went, and they exchanged a total of 50 catties of mung beans.
Their two baskets of vegetables are simply not enough. Wild vegetables can't be compared with beans, a pound can't be exchanged for a pound, and neither is pumpkin.
In the end, Hua Qiang said that he paid the salary, and everyone had no opinion.
When the grandfather and grandson left, every household was talking about them.
They don't believe that Hua Zhao can produce bean sprouts!
It was a technical job, and no one in the whole village could do it. No one is willing to **** for misfortune and food.
"I guess, it must be that Hua Qiang's family didn't eat it. This is a change in the way of food. I was too embarrassed to say it, so I found a reason." An old lady said.
"You can pull it down! Your family runs out of food and eats mung beans every day? Do you want to pull it to death?" Another old lady said while picking up pine nuts.
"Hahahaha." Everyone around laughed.
"But you see, that Hua Zhao doesn't seem to be so annoying." One person said in surprise: "And he laughs when he sees people, and he looks quite...kind?" It doesn't look like the fierce black bear spirit in memory at all. !
"Yeah, yeah, what's the matter? Why did you change your sex?"
"It is estimated that her grandfather is going to die, and no one will cover her in the future, so hurry up and earn good popularity for yourself."
"Hey, this child is also, he has no father and no mother. He has a relative who is not the same. It's pitiful."
"Yes, yes." The people around agreed, and the topic quickly turned to Hua Zhao's mother, who had disappeared for many years.
No matter how much the original owner hated him, he didn't cause much harm to other people's homes, so now that he has changed his personality, he has even gained a lot of sympathy.
Hua Zhao didn't care about anyone's eyes, and when he heard it, he pretended not to hear it, so he got busy when he got home.
Soak the beans in warm water.
Soak it for two days, and when it germinates, put it in a wicker basket, and it will be done after 7 days.
Of course, there are still many details to pay attention to. For example, it is best to lay screen windows at the bottom of the basket, surround the sides of the basket with plastic sheets, and cover the top of the basket with a quilt to block light and keep warm.
Otherwise, the bean sprouts will be discolored and bitter.
Have to rinse several times.
Once someone used chemical fertilizer to wash bean sprouts, so the bean sprouts grew white, fat and fast.
One basket uses 7 catties of mung beans, and after 7 days, you can harvest 80 to 90 catties.
Hua Zhao believes that she can make bean sprouts whiter and fatter without using chemical fertilizers!
"Grandpa, we don't have enough baskets. You can make some more tomorrow." Hua Zhao said.
50 catties of mung beans can produce 7 baskets of bean sprouts. She plans to produce one basket a day, sell one basket, and keep stalling.
Then when she finds her way, she will give birth to 10 baskets of 8 baskets every day.
Anyway, she's going to be big! That way you can earn more. Otherwise, to earn a few dollars a day, she felt a little insulted to her identity as a rebirth.
"Okay!" Hua Qiang happily agreed.
Generally, elderly people who are old will be able to weave baskets more or less. This is difficult to say, but simple. I have used all kinds of baskets for a lifetime, and I must have heard how to weave. As long as you are willing to do it, there is no problem.
Hua Qiang is good at it, and he has a good talent in this area. When he was in good health before, many people came to him to make baskets.
In the warehouse of Hua Qiang's family, there are also many materials for weaving baskets, and it is not a problem to weave dozens more.
The next morning, after eating breakfast beautifully, the grandparents and grandchildren started to move.
"Grandpa, I want to learn basket weaving from you." Hua Zhao said.
"Good good!" Hua Qiang was overjoyed, his granddaughter knew how to learn craftsmanship!
And it's been three days... She hasn't "relapsed", it seems that she has really learned it! Hua Qiang secretly wiped away her tears.
"This basket weaving, the first point is to choose the material, the wicker must be soft..." Hua Qiang started teaching.
As a result, after teaching while doing, Hua Qiang was stunned when he saw the basket that Hua Zhao had made after weaving a willow basket.
Hua Zhao also had a willow basket completed under his guidance, but it turned out to be better than the one in his hand.
The wicker is evenly spaced, the boards are upright, and the baskets weaved are like works of art, making people feel comfortable at a glance.
Hua Zhao looked at the basket in her hand but was dissatisfied, and asked her to say that the material was still not refined enough.
How could she not have such an interesting handcraft of basket weaving?
Not only can she weave baskets, she can also weave all kinds of straw, rattan, bamboo, baskets, shoes, and animals, and even tables, chairs and benches, she can weave them all!
Derived from it, she can also knit sweaters, crochet mattresses, and embroider handkerchiefs!
She is a bit obsessive-compulsive, and especially likes this kind of manual work that does not take much brains.
Whenever she does repetitive mechanical movements, her mood is extraordinarily relaxed.
As soon as I relaxed just now, I forgot to restrain myself, saying that this basket was made by a novice, and most people would not believe it.
Fortunately, Hua Qiang is not an ordinary person. In his eyes, his granddaughter is the best. He won't think too much about what his granddaughter does, he will only be happy.
"My little Huaer is smart! Once he learns, he can do it better than grandpa, hahahaha!" Hua Qiang smiled heartily, he felt that he had not laughed like this for many years.
It seems that since returning to this village, he has not laughed like this...
The two were busy for a while, and seeing that it was getting late, they went out to Liu Laosan's house.
Bring back four little pigs.
Originally, Hua Zhao planned to buy one, but Hua Qiang said that he would buy at least two, and only after one handed in the quest, the other would allow himself to kill and eat meat. If you only raise one pig, you must hand in the task and cannot eat it yourself.
And she heard that pigs are caught in the spring and killed in the winter. This kind of free-range pigs don't grow fat at all, only about 100 pounds.
This doesn't seem to be enough for her to eat by herself... Although she wants to lose weight, but now that she has supernatural powers, she feels that this will not delay her eating meat.
She was also a meatless person before.
So in a hurry, she caught the rest of the piglets. If they couldn't eat them, they could sell them for money, right?
On the way back, I passed a few people, and Hua Qiang went in again and brought back a litter of chicks, a litter of ducklings, and a litter of goslings, 10 in each litter.
The grandparents and grandchildren left, leaving a discussion all the way.
"Raise 4 pigs at once, what to raise? This Hua Zhao just wants to eat meat and wants to go crazy. Is she ignorant, and Hua Qiang is not sensible? You know how to like children. Look, this pig will eventually become a wild boar. ."
"And that goose, which eats as much as livestock, raising 10 at once? What family?"
"How do you care about the family? You don't eat your food."
"That's right, just stop and watch the fun, don't talk."
They raise pigs, basically free-range, and release them all over the mountains and fields to find food during the day, and go home to sleep at night.
But you have to feed more or less food, otherwise why would the pigs come back and wait to be slaughtered? Is it bad for your sleeping place?
The same is true of chickens, ducks and geese. Although they are free-range, they must also be fed with food, otherwise they will not go home.
Therefore, most people do what they can and do not raise too much.
Hua Qiang also knows this truth, but if the granddaughter wants to raise it, just raise it! A few days is a few days. If you can't raise them, you will kill them and eat meat.
Hua Zhao naturally understood this. But is she a food-poor person now? What she lacks is meat! It's money! Food, how much do you want~
The grandparents and grandchildren walked home happily, only to see three people standing outside the fence of their home from a distance.
A young man and two aunts, none of the faces of these three people can be remembered.
