Hard times have room

Chapter 757
Wang Dongmei left. After Paulin said that she and her brothers were the same, she thoughtfully and hurriedly left.

Paulin looked at the little friend who ran away and sighed helplessly. At this time, it was not easy for anyone. She turned her head and continued to peel the bamboo shoots. Her task this afternoon was quite heavy, and she had to hurry up.

It didn't take long for Pauline to peel the bamboo shoots, just enough to fill the wooden barrel next to her, and the bell rang for work.

I don't know if the captain personally knocked the iron blocks all over the village, or someone else did it for him. The sound of knocking the iron blocks was really exciting, and the speed of the knocking was fast and urgent. Logically speaking, the village chief does not seem to be like this. Man, he used to ring the bell for work in a gentle and rhythmic manner. Unlike today, he just rang randomly, and he couldn't be in a hurry.

Pauline had just run into the main room and was about to push open the door of her parents' room when suddenly, the door opened directly from the inside.

The door that was opened directly by Pauline took a step back in fright. After she could see who it was, she turned her body sideways to make way for the hurried people: "Dad, it's time to go to work, it's time to ring the bell."

"Well, I heard it." When Wang Jiandang spoke, he kept walking, and went straight to the left corner of the main room door, where he took the tools he and his daughter-in-law needed to bring to work this afternoon.

Inside, Su Hongying's movements were not slow. Wang Jiandang was woken up by the fast and urgent bell. He had been sleeping very deeply, but after hearing the sound, he suddenly sat up from the bed reflexively and was startled. I jumped, goosebumps all over my body, and cold sweat came out on my back.

As for Su Hongying, she was woken up by Wang Jiandang, and the ringtone just now had no effect on her.

After Wang Jiandang was awakened, he pushed and shoved Su Hongying twice to make sure that after waking up, he immediately got out of bed, put on his shoes, opened the door, and went out to get tools. After doing all the actions, the man also took the tools and walked to the door, but because the other person hadn't come yet, he finally returned to their room because he really didn't want to wait.

Su Hongying, on the other hand, got up in a daze. She had just put on her shoes when Wang Jiandang hurried back and saw Su Hongying who was sluggish. Yes, the bell for work has already rang, hurry up, we have to go to the grain drying field to gather!"

"Ah." Su Hongying yawned heavily, covering her mouth with her hand. At the end of the yawn, her hand wiped a tear from the end of her eye.

"Okay, you know, haven't I packed it up, we'll leave right away, we won't delay work."

Her temperament is slower, especially at this time, she hasn't woken up yet. After all, she is not Wang Jiandang, and was woken up by the ringtone. In his situation, he really lost sleep in an instant. is normal.

The couple took a big step, and the time between the next step and the previous one was very short. After a while, they walked out of the main room door.

"Paulin, don't go out in the afternoon, just peel the bamboo shoots at home. If you still have time, after peeling the bamboo shoots, scald them with hot water, tear them apart, put them on a bamboo pole, and dry them directly."

"There are also those loach raised in the kitchen at home. They have been raised for so long, and they have lost weight. Let's do it tonight. You can do it in your heart."

Su Hongying wanted to say something else, but was dragged away by Wang Jiandang.

If we go on with that, their husband and wife will really become the last two to go, and they are typical of being arrested. This kind of thing is about face, it is not good-looking, and it is not good to hear. Therefore, Wang Jiandang is called a fast walker on the road. , Su Hongying's trot can keep up with Wang Jiandang's pace.

For the next time, Pauline felt that the whole yard was quiet, except for the rustling sound of the wind blowing the grass and trees, there was no other movement.

There used to be the crisp and sweet sounds of the birds, but now they are gone. Even if it has been two years since the madness of eliminating the four evils in the village, it is still difficult to see the birds. After a large area of ​​hunting, I want to Recovery takes time, and no one can predict how long it will take.

The bamboo shoots of the bamboo shoots were stripped off by Bao Lin. The bamboo shoots that were originally piled together, like a hill of bamboo shoots, eventually became less and less. As the last bamboo shoots were stripped off by Bao Lin, Pauline, who has been busy for almost an afternoon, can finally stop this mechanical and boring thing.

However, it is impossible to rest at this time, she is very busy.

The bamboo shoots that were originally piled up were picked apart by Baolin with a bamboo grappling hook and dried in place. These are good things. The fresh bamboo shoots and mice like to eat them. The sun-dried bamboo shoots are good materials for fire. Since the bamboo shoots have entered this yard, it is impossible to throw them out.

For the next ten minutes, Paulin kept burning the fire. When the water boiled, she poured the bamboo shoots into it, scalded it for half a minute, and then used a spatula to scoop it into a wooden basin filled with water.

The clear water is cold, but it was warmed by the hot bamboo shoots. Because the pot at home is not big, Baolin scalded the bamboo shoots separately. There were eight pots in total, which took more than 40 minutes.

The original wooden pot was filled with bamboo shoots. In addition, the other pots in the house were filled with bamboo shoots, the kind that Paulin didn't have time to tear up.

Because Pauline uses a lot of basins and buckets, and they are all related to water, it is normal for water to overflow or droplets to accidentally drop on the ground. Not long after, near the kitchen stove The ground was wet.

When the last pot of bamboo shoots is out of the pot, Paulin can concentrate on tearing the bamboo shoots. If it is a big one, then tear it into four parts, and if it is a small one, tear it into two parts.

Paulin had already torn some of it before, but because she had to burn the fire and flip the bamboo shoots in the hot water to make it heat evenly as much as possible, it was somewhat unsatisfactory for Paulin to tear up the bamboo shoots. Interrupted, but not this time.

There is a dustpan on the small stool next to Pauline, not to use it to dry the bamboo shoots, but to use the dustpan to hold the torn bamboo shoots. She doesn't want to dry it, just tear it up and wait for her parents to come back. , just leave it to them.

Because tearing bamboo shoots requires constant exposure to water, after only half an hour, Paulin's fingers were a little white from the soaking, but it was okay.

Not to mention, the change of bamboo shoots is a bit fast. After scalding for a while, and soaking in water for a while, the original green or white bamboo shoots have turned yellow and wilted, and they look absolutely not as good as before. .
