Pastoral Song [Farming]

"Go back to the house and rest for a while, I'll go up the mountain." Jiang Ye's voice came from beside his ears. This man's speech was always smooth, clear and cold, as if a wave of air-conditioning was blowing over him. No wonder many people dared not approach him. .

At least 1.8m [-] in height, the strong muscles on the arms imply the man's flamboyant strength and not to be trifled with, the wheat-colored skin tanned by years of hard work, the thick eyebrows that fly straight into the temples, the deep eye sockets, and the tall nose , it feels a bit mixed, isn't it the beauty of the iceberg?

In his previous life, Makino's grandfather was Russian, so Makino himself has some foreign blood, with deep eye sockets and big eyes, especially he was the only one in the family who inherited his grandfather's light blue eyes.But Makino felt that Jiang Ye's eyes were even more beautiful than his own, like a vast ocean, calm and without waves but hidden.

Makino's obedient baby smiled: "Okay, Brother Jiang, please be careful and come back early."

"Well, it's called Dark Cloud."

Jiang Ye's heart suddenly seemed to fall into a small sun, which was warm. He hadn't felt this feeling of being cared for for a long time.Since his mother passed away, no one told him to be careful on the road every time he went out.After joining the army, he suffered a lot at a young age. When he met his master, he was even stricter with him.Apart from his mother, Makino was the first person who instructed him in such soft words.He picked up the basket, put away the hatchet, bow and arrow, and strode out of the house, thinking that it would be fine if he lived all the time.

Makino went back to the house and slept for a while, and it took him a long time to wake up before he realized where he was.Shaking his head and laughing helplessly, he went out to look at the sun, and guessed that it was about three or four o'clock. He couldn't get used to Zichou Yinmao's timekeeping method here, so he had to directly convert it into 24 hours, and later Change it slowly.According to the season of late summer, it would be a while before sunset, so he turned and walked into the utility room where Jiang Ye was temporarily staying, wanting to help clean up.

Pushing open the door and seeing the end, the room is not small, more than ten square meters, but it is full of sundries and some food. Jiang Ye spread thatch in the open space by the window and slept on it.Makino's nose was inexplicably sore, how could he sleep well.

Pick up the quilt on the ground and hang it in the yard to dry.I found a wooden basin, fetched water, and wiped the inside and outside of the room I live in now.The ground is muddy, so I had no choice but to sprinkle it with water and sweep it. I went to the utility room to find a few wooden boards and put them together near the window, carefully wiped them clean and laid new thatch.Pulling open the cabinet in the corner, the sheets were stacked on the top, so there was no need to rummage through them. This made Makino heave a sigh of relief. Although Jiang Ye told him that he could find what he needed by himself, he was still a little unaccustomed to messing with other people's things. Out of the corner of his eye, he glanced at the corner of the closet. It was strange. The clothes in the closet were neatly arranged. Why was it a bit messy there? Maybe Jiang Ye took things and forgot to tidy them up. Makino didn't think too much about it. Raise your hand and tidy up.After the bed sheets were laid, the sun-dried quilt and pillows were stacked on top of it, and it finally looked less shabby.

He also swept the small yard in front of the door. Makino is a very clean person, and he absolutely can't bear a little mess around him.

After finishing all this, it was still early, I poured a glass of water, moved a small stool and sat in the yard looking into the distance.There are several rolling mountains, covering the sky and the sun. Thinking that his hometown is also at the foot of the mountains, Makino is very happy, as if he has returned home.

Not far from the foot of the mountain is a piece of farmland. Futian Village grows winter wheat. The wheat is about to be harvested this season. It is golden, and there is an illusion that the city is full of golden armor.

Surrounding the field is a river nearly five meters wide. When the sun shines, it looks like a sparkling silver belt from a distance. The water flow is strong but gentle.After crossing the river, there are large houses.In the village, most of the thatched houses with earth walls are surrounded by fences, and only a handful of houses are built with green bricks and tiles.The houses are not neatly arranged, only there are more residents near the big willow tree in the west of the village, and the others are scattered in different corners.Probably because the place is too big and the population is small, no one cares about land planning.

Makino thought, the location of Futian Village is really good, there are mountains and rivers, and there are no redundant villages around. It is very quiet and feels like a paradise. Even in summer, there is a cool breeze and it is not very hot.Especially after leaving the village, walking along the main road, people say that it only takes half an hour to get to the town, which is very convenient, so the life of Futian Village is very good in several nearby villages.

Beside Jiang Ye's yard, there are two small dilapidated houses. I don't know whose family they belong to. Muye plans to buy them there in the future. It's good to be neighbors with Jiang Ye.Moreover, Jiang Ye lived far away from Lao Tian's family in the village, so he didn't want to see the hypocrisy of that family every day.

There is also a big mountain not far behind the house. At the foot of the mountain, there is not only a stream nearly two meters wide, but also a large wild bamboo forest.Makino loved the dark green ocean very much.If possible, buy the bamboo forest, and then draw water from the stream to make a small pond. In summer, it will be very comfortable to put a rocking chair in the forest.Hey, I am a penniless person who has begun to fantasize about the luxurious retirement life of local tyrants. I am really ashamed.

Makino liked some flowers and green plants in his previous life, and tried to plant bamboo in his backyard, but unfortunately none of them survived, so he planted a garden full of creepers, and planted a row of toon trees, apple trees, and persimmon trees next to the wall .Before the third year, the courtyard wall of the house had been covered by creepers. In summer, the whole yard was as beautiful as a natural green cave. In the middle of the yard, my father dug a small swimming pool. In midsummer, I soaked in the pool and ate iced watermelon. , Looking at the greenery and flowers and plants in the yard is Makino's favorite thing to do.Thinking wildly, there was already smoke rising in the village, and it was almost time for dinner.

"I saw the smoke rising from the kitchen, and the twilight illuminated the earth. I wanted to ask the smoke from the kitchen, where are you going..."

Thinking of Jiang Ye's indescribable craftsmanship at noon, Muye walked to the kitchen humming a song.He is a person who loves to listen to music very much. There is no computer, no mobile phone, and no equipment that can play music. He can only be self-sufficient, that is, the audience becomes a singer again.

Over the years of studying abroad, in order not to let himself starve to death, Makino has practiced from a rookie who can cut vegetables to the fingertips. Although he dare not say that he has the skills of a chef, ordinary home-cooked dishes are not difficult for him at all.If you ask him to have steak every day, dun dun kebab, Makino said that he wants to show you every minute.

I don't know if he has this talent, as long as he cooks the recipe once or twice, he can remember it without saying it, or even improve it better. In the past, many friends ate in his dormitory.I think back to when I started my business and opened a family hotel, I prepared breakfast for the guests by myself, and it was well received.A customer liked his dumplings so much that he took a three-hour train ride from South France to visit him during Chinese New Year.

Makino recalled that every time he went back to China for vacation in his previous life, the two 23kg suitcases would never stop unless they were filled with seasonings and ingredients.Not even a penny of carry-on luggage was spared.If he found that only one suitcase was allowed when he bought the ticket, Makino would definitely give up the flight immediately.

His younger brother and girlfriend once laughed at him and said: "My brother's box is about to burst, do you want to pack the whole supermarket away? Be careful next time you come back and grow ten catties of meat. I won't share the meatballs with you when the time comes." gone."

Then my mother would laugh at him: "Your brother treats the weight limit of airline luggage like Grandma Wang at our door who buys a biscuit for one yuan and compares which one is thicker. The company scolded all the way."

Most of the vegetables in this season are still very fresh. Grandpa also liked to grow these in the past. He still remembers making tomato sauce at home every year around the Mid-Autumn Festival and saving it for winter.Cook a bowl of hand-rolled noodles, stew a pot of stewed cabbage and pork vermicelli, put fried meatballs and fried tofu in it, if you like seaweed, cut it a little wider and put it in, and pour three small spoons of tomatoes on a bowl of noodles after it comes out of the pot Add a tablespoon of the sauce and stew it randomly. If you like spicy food, add a spoonful of oily chili peppers. Stir together, not to mention how fragrant it is.If the family happened to have garlic pickled in old vinegar until it turned green, and with one more bite, Makino could eat two bowls.It was his favorite.

I picked a few tomatoes and small peppers from the vegetable garden. I saw that the eggplant has been growing for too long and it is a bit old. The feather vegetable should have grown two leaves not long after it was planted. This vegetable has a short growth period. , I think I can eat it in the next month.He picked two small cabbages and went back to the kitchen. He saw that there were still three eggs and a piece of pork belly in the kitchen.

First mix all kinds of miscellaneous grains together and soak for a while, then put a few drops of oil in, so that the steamed rice in the pot will be more fragrant.In the past, Makino liked to put a small spoonful of coconut oil in the rice after it was cooked. Not only is it zero-calorie and not afraid of getting fat, but also the whole rice has a sweet coconut fragrance, which is very delicious.Corn and sorghum rice is always cooked slower than white rice, and it is easier to cook after soaking for a while, otherwise the rice will be cooked later, and they will still be hard; or after they are cooked, the rice will be too soft after cooking, which is He thinks the rules of cooking by himself are very good and has been used until now.

Wash the vegetables with rice-washing water. The rice-washing water can easily bring down the soil on the vegetables, then rinse them again with clean water, and drain the water in a dustpan. It doesn't feel like frying.

Take the piece of meat hanging by the kitchen window, wash it, cut it into hob pieces, and put it in the water to blanch it.Slice the onion obliquely, slice the ginger, smash the garlic, and find a handful of dried chilies.He searched around but did not find prickly ash and star anise leaves, and he didn't know if this kind of ingredient didn't exist here, or Jiang Ye didn't prepare it at home.

In order to prevent Tian Yu from stealing food, Tian Li didn't allow him to enter the kitchen, so Tian Yu didn't have these things in his memory.After thinking about giving up, put some oil in the pot and fry the meat until it is burnt yellow, then put the onion, ginger, garlic and chili into it and stir fry, add some soy sauce to adjust the color, put some salt and pour the water submerged in the meat, cover the pot and put it on high heat Bring to a boil and then simmer.

During this period, make a cross on the top of the tomato, put it in hot water, and then beat the eggs. Rinse the tomato with cold water. After the skin expands and contracts, it is easy to peel off the whole piece and cut it into small pieces for later use.The cabbage is also cut obliquely into small diamond shapes, and the red pepper is chopped for later use.

Lifting the lid of the stewed pork pot, the aroma came out. Sure enough, the iron pot firewood rice is more fragrant. I poked the meat with chopsticks and it was already cooked very badly. I put some sugar in it, and the fire collected the juice.Looking at the golden yellow and soft braised pork on the plate, he sighed, as expected, his cooking was much better than Jiang Ye's.

Clean the pot, scramble eggs with tomatoes, and stir-fry cabbage in less than a cup of tea, and everything will be ready.
