That bag of chestnuts was put into the warehouse by Song Tan, because Zhang Yanping lay on the second floor, listened to a few words, and gave an opinion that no one could refuse——
"Tan Tan, the chestnuts can be put away for the Chinese New Year!"
"When the time comes when people from the village come to visit us to pay New Year's greetings, we won't be able to afford our food. Let's buy it from outside. It will show that we are not sincere."
"How about putting a plate of chestnuts? They're so dry, you can nibble them for a few hours and you'll be fine!"
If we support this year for now, and wait until next year to plant two more sunflowers and peanuts, won’t the roasted seeds and nuts for the Chinese New Year also come out?
Zhang Yanping has a lot of ideas, and this idea has touched the hearts of the old Song family!
"Yes!" Even Wu Lan was looking forward to it: "When the children come to visit us, we will grab a bag of our own things. If someone comes to visit, we will prepare some to kill time..."
What happened to dried chestnuts? Their dried chestnuts are also delicious. Even chewing them slowly with saliva on your front teeth will definitely give you a different taste!
She even started to think about what to give to relatives during the New Year. It can be seen that this half year of this year is really exciting and frustrating!
Only Qiaoqiao couldn't understand this subtle thought for the time being. He just stuffed Da Tian back into the pocket of his pajamas and said curiously:
"But the Chinese New Year will be celebrated in early February this year, and there are still more than three months left!"
Everyone:...
Song Tan raised her hand and touched his head lovingly: "Good boy, have you finished your homework tonight?"
Autumn mornings are particularly comfortable. Because the temperature has dropped, the Lao Song family's wake-up time has been pushed to six or seven in the morning.
Except for Song Youde's seventh cousin and other older people.
They don't play with their mobile phones at night, so they still wake up at five o'clock. It was cold and dewy in the morning, so everyone gathered in the kitchen to work together...
Needless to say, it was much more lively than when we were in the old house.
And there is a lot of work today.
The harvested sweet potatoes need to be put into the cellar after sorting, and the children clamor for dried sweet potatoes. Coupled with the New Year incident that happened in Yanping yesterday...
Song Youde immediately decided: Isn’t it just sweet potatoes? show!
The seventh cousin didn't have any objection - how could a cook have an objection to delicious food?
He just ordered: "When Tantan wakes up, let her go to the mountain to get the big steamer from the canteen."
Song Youde was stunned: "What? Do you want to make steamed buns?"
The seventh cousin was also stunned: "Why, don't you steam the sweet potatoes first and then dry them?"
The two of them talked about it like a duck, and it took them a long time to figure it out.
Cousin Seven said: "After steaming and then drying, the dried sweet potatoes will become red, soft and sweet, and they are delicious!"
Song Youde shook his head: "It's too sweet. It's so sweet that it's too sweet. I don't dare to eat more. Besides, it's not easy to store it!"
"Just use the old method!"
Seventh Cousin: ...That's true. He can't eat anything too sweet now.
…
So when Song Tan woke up, she was faced with a heavy task.
"Transport it to the cellar? I have no problem with that. Just Qiaoqiao and I can do it. We are both strong - but it's not possible now, right? Let the water dry out first."
"Dry sweet potatoes? Then dry them more and sell them online later. This stuff is cheap and long-lasting. It's more economical than roasting chestnuts with sugar."
Xin Jun looked at him sideways: Your cheapness is not the same as ordinary people's cheapness, right?
But with nearly two acres of land and tens of thousands of kilograms of sweet potatoes, Song Tan still sighed: "Grandpa, you told me earlier that we would just take it to the factory and put it away."
Fortunately, two days ago, she was afraid that the cellar would not be full, so she went to expand it secretly, and stole a handful of Qiaoqiao's glass beads... Such a small amount of spiritual power was used up in one day, and it took several days of practice before she came back!
Everyone rolled up their sleeves and quickly picked through all the sweet potatoes. Put the beautiful and whole ones in the cellar, and divide half of them to dry the sweet potatoes.
This job is easy, and any old man or woman can do it, but it requires almost five thousand kilograms of sweet potatoes to be dried. Wu Lan thought about it and shouted in the group.
Not long after, the strong men working the night shift
Both men and women came.
Wulan wondered: "Why are you all here? Did you get enough sleep at night?"
"Then why didn't you sleep enough?" Li Lanhua laughed: "I went to bed at seven or eight o'clock in the evening. I got up at 11:30 to pick vegetables. There was still food left in the cafeteria. After eating, I went home and lay down at five o'clock. Just stare for a while longer at noon...that's enough, that's enough!"
Now there is not much work in the factory, so I just work the midnight shift, which is relaxing!
But when I asked Wulan to come and see her, it wasn't as easy as she said. For example, many aunts had not slept well in the past two years, probably due to their age.
But everyone had a different idea - since I couldn't sleep, it was better to get up and work.
Men can sleep soundly anytime and anywhere, but since they can sleep anytime and anywhere, wouldn't it be better to earn some money?
After all, after the fermentation tank was repaired, they had no work again and were idle at home for three to five days.
After thinking about it this way, although the work at home is good, it is unstable!
The old Song family said that they will work hard next year, so let’s ask around during the New Year...
…
So, eight or nine people, men and women, came to the yard, and five or six old men and women gathered together, and a pile of sweet potatoes was quickly sorted.
Zhang Yanping and Xin Jun rode the tricycles, and everyone was responsible for loading the baskets. Qiao Qiao and Song Tan were responsible for loading the tricycles. The assembly line transportation quickly started.
Song Tan has a good ear, and while he was carrying the basket, he heard the pigs in the back mountain yelling again - why do they never have enough to eat?
So he stopped Qiao Qiao and said, "You go cook the pig food. I'll come over here."
After thinking for a while, he then ordered: "It will take an hour to cook the pigs' food. You can feed them some food first. The screams are too miserable..."
Qiao Qiao is always the happiest when it comes to things related to animals. At this moment, she picked up the phone holder and went up the mountain without saying a word. Song Sancheng reminded him while moving the basket:
"Take two baskets of dug sweet potatoes... old pumpkins! There are old pumpkins and Chinese cabbages bought in the cafeteria, bring some!"
Qiaoqiao is riding Da Duo and has gone up the mountain smoothly!
Zhang Yanping looked at the busy people, sitting on the tricycle seat, and turned on his mobile phone seriously:
"Oh, I'm so busy... I still have to worry about the live broadcast room preview when delivering goods..."
Xin Jun was riding on another car. He really didn't want to say anything - just ride the car up the mountain. There are so many people and they don't need to unload the goods. What can be done?
With Song Tan's character, how could he not leave ten or eight kilograms of dried sweet potatoes for them after they were done?
He even shared 20 kilograms of dried pumpkin made in early autumn!
Otherwise, why would he be so enthusiastic about his work? Wouldn't it be better to sit down and calmly prepare for class and use his mobile phone?
And here, the migrant workers who got up in a hurry to rush to the early shift just opened their eyes at six o'clock, fumbled to unmute, and heard a cheerful notification from their mobile phones——
"The anchor you are particularly interested in has sent a preview of the live broadcast!"
The worker perked up, then clicked on the notification and found that the cross-district anchor started again early in the morning——
