Gao Mingcheng went into the mountains with a machete to chop bamboo in order to weave a large dustpan out of the bamboo. Dustpans are an indispensable item for every household in the village.
The shovel-shaped dustpan can be used to transport garbage, and the round dustpan can be used to remove the chaff from rice and can also be used to dry things.
Gao Mingcheng planned to make a round dustpan for the silkworm babies. Because raising silkworms requires ventilation, it would be good to use a dustpan woven with bamboo strips.
Bamboo often grows into a large area, and over time, it will gradually spread around, eventually turning into a large bamboo forest.
There are also a large number of bamboos on the hills near the village, but these are allocated to the villagers and others cannot cut them down at will.
There happened to be no bamboo in the mountains where Gao Mingcheng himself and many beautiful people lived, so if he wanted bamboo, he had to go deep into the mountains.
Bamboo is easy to find. After all, it is a plant with a high survival rate. As soon as you walk into the bamboo forest, everything is green, the bamboo poles are green, the bamboo leaves are green, and there are large and small bamboo shoots on the ground.
These bamboo shoots are spring bamboo shoots, which are large in size and have a bitter taste, not as delicious as winter bamboo shoots. In addition to the large bamboo shoots produced by the big bamboo in the mountains, there is also a very small bamboo shoot, which tastes more tender.
Gao Mingcheng took a look at the bamboo shoots all over the ground and planned to dig some back tomorrow morning.
He did not plan to eat it fresh, but planned to dry it and eat it slowly.
The texture of fresh bamboo shoots is not as good as that of dried bamboo shoots. Boil the fresh bamboo shoots, then cut them into slices and dry them in the sun. When you want to eat them, soak them in water and then stir-fry them like this, or stir-fry them with a little pork belly. , all taste very good, with a bamboo shoot fragrance and chewy texture.
When I was carrying two big bamboos home, it was getting dark. Duo Mei was chopping vegetables in the kitchen. The kitchen knife collided with the chopping board, making a ding-dong-dong sound.
"I'll bring the cattle and sheep back." Gao Mingcheng put the bamboo in the yard, said that, and went out.
He walked to the area where the cattle and sheep were grazing and saw that the cattle and sheep were still well.
Nowadays, many pigs are raised in the village, but few cattle and sheep are raised, so there are places where cattle and sheep can graze.
"Let's go home!" Gao Mingcheng shouted, untied the rope and led the cattle and sheep towards home.
When he was building the house, he also built spare rooms such as cattle pens, pig pens, and chicken pens. Now that he doesn't raise pigs, the extra room can just be used to raise sheep.
Cows are silent most of the time, but sheep are different. As soon as Gao Mingcheng approached, the two sheep began to bleat towards Gao Mingcheng.
When Gao Mingcheng led them home, they also bleated all the way, as if telling Gao Mingcheng their day's experience.
At this time, the black tiger and the elf jumped out from nowhere and began to surround Gao Mingcheng, barking from time to time.
Well, Gao Mingcheng was surrounded by a group of animals!
Fortunately, there were no other houses near where he lived, otherwise he would have been disturbed by the sounds of these animals.
By the time the animals were settled, it was completely dark.
The Gao Mingcheng family has already connected the wires and bought light bulbs. They have installed three light bulbs in total, one in the kitchen, one in the main room, and one in their own bedroom.
At first, many beauties thought it was too much, but after using it, she knew it was really convenient!
"Hurry up and eat!" Many beautiful voices sounded from the kitchen, accompanied by the sound of cooking.
"Here we come." Gao Mingcheng washed his hands with water and walked towards the kitchen. As soon as he walked into the kitchen, he smelled an attractive fragrance.
The bullfrog he caught has now become a plate of delicious food!
After the bullfrog is killed, the skin is peeled off, the internal organs in the stomach are removed, and the toes and heads of the limbs are cut off. What is left is edible.
In fact, the skin of bullfrog is also edible, and it is full of collagen. It does not taste crispy, but has a soft and waxy texture, like eating badly cooked pig skin.
However, many beauties don’t know that the skin can also be eaten. She habitually threw away the skin. There was only bullfrog meat on the plate, paired with dried chili peppers and chives, which was full of color, flavor and flavor.
A large plate full of bullfrog meat makes people want to eat. In addition to bullfrog meat, Duomei also cooked a plate of vegetables, one meat and one vegetarian, which went well together.
Many Mei Sheng rice came, and then he picked up a chopstick of bullfrog meat. After tasting it, his eyes lit up and he said: "This meat is so tender! It tastes better than frogs, and there is a lot more meat! Where did you catch it?" Let’s catch it together this time.”
Gao Mingcheng did not dare to take Duo Mei to catch bullfrogs in ditches in the mountains. However, in the rice fields in the village, most of them were frogs, much smaller in size.
Besides, frogs are good friends in rice fields!
Frogs can prey on insects, making the rice fields less susceptible to insect damage, so villagers rarely go to the rice fields to catch frogs and eat them.
"In a month or two, it's time for the bullfrogs to lay eggs. Let's let them reproduce. The more eggs the better! The bullfrogs just need to eat occasionally." Gao Mingcheng said.
Many beauties have no objection, it is all up to Gao Mingcheng.
After dinner, Duomei ran to see his silkworm babies again. The silkworm babies at this moment are still very small, and there is nothing to look at. The mulberry leaves she gave them before have not been eaten yet. There are only small holes in the leaves.
"Why haven't you finished eating yet? I want to give you some more mulberry leaves." Duo Mei said with some disappointment.
Gao Mingcheng wanted to laugh a little, thinking, when the silkworm babies reach the growth stage, I guarantee that if you just put down the mulberry leaves, they will be reduced by half!
At that time, you will have to get up in the middle of the night to add mulberry leaves to the silkworm babies. If you raise too many, people will die from exhaustion!
Gao Mingcheng knew, but Gao Mingcheng didn't tell.
Let Duo Mei fully experience the experience of raising silkworms!
At that time, it will be up to her to decide whether to expand the scale. The money from selling the cocoons will also be her own private money, and she can spend it as she pleases.
After a busy day, the two finally went to bed.
But when the two of them lie side by side on the bed, another form of busyness begins!
In the yard, the black tiger curled up in the doghouse heard the noise coming from the house. It first raised its head and raised its ears. After listening carefully for a while, the dog's head dropped again.
No danger, sleep and sleep!
Night covers the earth, and a half-moon hangs in the sky, shining silver light on everything in the world.
At this time, everything was silent, people had fallen asleep, and the livestock had also fallen into sleep.
Time passed little by little, and the stars changed, changing the night to the white of the east, and then a red sun jumped out of the horizon, rising from the east, illuminating the world.
The moon sets and the sun rises, a new day has arrived!
Yin and Yang alternate and remain unchanged forever. Some people wake up from their sleep, while others never wake up again.
At 7:30 in the morning, Gao Mingcheng was eating porridge in his yard. Suddenly his ears perked up and he seemed to hear a faint wailing sound.
Gao Mingcheng frowned, walked out of the door with the bowl in hand, and looked towards the direction of the old village.
