Chapter 134 133. Falling
When Yi Xiangjin came home, she first took the vegetables and meat she bought to the kitchen and handed them over to her grandma.

Then they washed the young ginger and dried it there, then peeled the garlic, and finally went to check the peppers.

At this time, those peppers had already drained the water, and some of them had already shriveled in the sun.

After Xiang Jin sterilized a few newly purchased glass bottles with boiling water, he sautéed the salt before he started chopping the peppers.

When her grandma packed up the vegetables and meat and came out, she saw her chopping peppers there, and immediately became very nervous.

"Oh, my God, why don't you put a plastic bag on your hand and just chop it there, you are not afraid that your hand will not be able to hold it later, how spicy is this spicy food?" She wanted to come She snatched the knife from Xiang Jin's hand and chopped it.

Xiang Jin avoided it with a smile, "Don't worry about grandma, it's fine, you see," she said, grabbing a rice spoon in the Shau Kei next to her and shaking it in front of her.

"I haven't even touched the chili peppers with my hands. I always use knives and spoons. For some big particles like this, I just scoop them up with a spoon and chop them finely.

During the whole chopping process, my hands will not touch the peppers, even when I bottle it later, I only use chopsticks and small spoons. "

Hearing what she said, her grandmother's worried heart was a little relieved, "That's good, that's good, this spicy pepper is very hot, if you accidentally touch it, that hand will be burning and stinging for a long time That’s it, even a serious day will be uncomfortable.”

Xiang Jin said, "I know," she didn't take any safety precautions when she made chili fried pork for the first time in her previous life. She directly touched the chili with her hands, and even scoured the sliced ​​chili Well, that time made her very hot, and she still remembers the sour taste even after being reborn.

So from that time on, except for the first time when she was cleaning the intact peppers, she would only touch the peppers directly, and during the cutting and cleaning process, her hands would never get on the peppers.

Like those two vitex peppers and some other hot peppers, when she needs to remove the seeds, she directly uses a colander and chopsticks.

Her grandmother said, "Yes, yes, it's better to be careful."

Her grandmother saw that she knew the serious relationship, so she stopped worrying, and then went back to the kitchen to make lunch.

Xiang Jin, on the other hand, continued to chop the peppers. After chopping the peppers, he chopped the ginger and garlic, and then poured these three ingredients together, then added the fried salt and crushed rock sugar and mixed well.

Then put the mixed peppers into the glass bottle that has been sterilized with boiling water and dried with a small spoon one by one, and press it tightly with a small spoon, and finally pour a certain amount of high-grade liquor into it , and then tighten the cap to seal the bottle.

It took Xiang Jin about an hour and a half to make the chopped peppers, and she made five bottles in total.

After the last bottle was screwed on, her grandmother asked her with a smile, "Is this all right?"

Xiang Jin said, "That's not enough. The book says that it will be kept in the refrigerator for about a month, but we don't have a refrigerator at home, so we can only put it in the well to refrigerate. I hope it can have the same effect. It won't be bad."

Her grandmother asked, "What will this be used for then? Is it a stir-fry like bean paste?"

Xiang Jin said, "Yes, but not only, this time the fish head can be steamed.

Grandma, do you know that there is a famous Hunan dish in Hunan called Fish Head with Chopped Peppers. The fish head is made of chopped peppers. It is very delicious. Eat a whole fish head with chopped peppers. "

Her grandma just smiled and said, "Okay, okay, listen to you, let's cook some Hunan cuisine when the time comes."

Just halfway through lunch, the weather suddenly became gloomy again, and at the same time, there were rumbling thunders in the sky from time to time.

Xiang Jin and the others were afraid that it would be like last time, so the family hurriedly put down the dishes and went to the yard to collect food. Even Aunt Liao's natal brothers and nephews came out to help.

Grandma Mo and Grandpa Zeng next door also rushed out of the house and stood on the edge of the courtyard dam when they heard the thunder, and shouted at Jin's mother, Yang Juyun, asking if they needed help?

Yang Juyun thanked them first, and then said no, their family had enough, Grandma Mo and the others saw that there were indeed eight or nine people working in their yard, so they insisted on not coming to help.

Han Che was speechless when he saw the golden corns in the courtyard dam over there, "God, how many catties of grain must have been harvested?"

Yan Chen glanced at him indifferently, "It's rare to see more strange, it's normal in the countryside."

Han Che nodded in agreement and said, "I rarely see food drying in this battle. How can I see it in the city? Unlike you, you can still come to grandpa and grandma every year After living for a period of time, it is natural to be well-informed and get used to it.

Alas, don't tell me, farmers are really rich now, there are so many corns alone, at least one thousand catties of corn in this dam, right? "

When Grandpa Zeng heard the conversation between the two, he smiled and said, "Not only, at least it weighs more than 3000 catties."

"Three, more than 3000 catties? God, isn't that too much?" Han Che was startled, and followed suit, "How can I finish eating this?"

Grandma Mo laughed loudly, "Silly boy, what time is it now, who still eats old corn? These are grown to feed pigs or chickens and ducks, and people rarely eat them."

"People don't eat it? But don't people in the city still buy that kind of crushed corn kernels from the supermarket to cook?" Han Che was surprised again.

Grandma Mo said, "That's in the city, but no one in our village can eat this now. There is no shortage of food in our village."

"Oh," Han Che nodded, and then looked at Xiang Jin and the people at the head of the courtyard rushing in and out.

Someone is using a wooden tweezer with a long handle to push the far away grain to the middle, and then pushes it into a hill, and then someone is holding the broom to push the corn kernels that the wooden tweezer has not pushed cleanly. Sweeping in the middle, and some people packed the corn kernels like hills with a small dustpan or a dustpan, either into the empty bag on the side, or into the plastic bag on the side. The man helped the two of them carry the corn kernels or plastic bags to the eaves of the street.

After everyone worked hard to survive, the corn kernels in the courtyard dam were finally harvested.

And Xiang Jin and the others finally felt relieved, and everyone breathed a sigh of relief.

She went to the well to fetch a bucket of water, and everyone was washing their hands, when suddenly they heard Old Madam Zhang exclaim from the direction of Old Xiang's house, "Old man? Old man, what's wrong with you, ah?"

Everyone stretched their necks and looked over there, and then saw the old man lying on the ground with a sling on his back. The sling was slanted, and the ground behind it was full of corn.

Then everyone was guessing, it is estimated that the people from the old Xiang family were also rushing to harvest the grain just now, and the old man accidentally slipped on his foot while carrying the grain, and fell straight down.

However, seeing that he didn't get up from the ground for a long time, it is estimated that this fall was really serious, even a little miserable.

Xiang Jin's grandmother just gouged out that side, "It deserves it, this is a person with a bad heart, and he has been punished."

Xiang Nan followed and nodded frequently, "Yeah, I got retribution."

Xiang Jin was a little dumbfounded, why do the two people in the front of the room like to watch people suffer so much?
But this old man from the Xiang family is really unsympathetic.

Xiang Jin had no intention of watching their family's jokes, so after washing her hands, she called Xiang Nan into the house for dinner.

After seeing it, the others also felt that there was no need to stand here and watch, and they all entered the house one after another to continue eating.

There was a rush of work, and everyone thought it was going to rain heavily, but in the end it didn't rain at all. The grain was collected, but it was impossible to take it out to dry at this moment.

Then Xiang Jin and the others heard Mrs. Zhang yelling at God loudly, "This thief God, if it wants to go down, it won't go down. If it doesn't go down, why don't you change the sky? This is not sincerity." Does the earth harm people?"

When Xiang Jin's grandmother heard it, she said, "This is what makes your family dislike even the gods. You deserve the bad luck of your old man!"

Of course, what she said was just talking at home, and it didn't spread outside.

Seeing the cloudy sky, Aunt Liao was afraid that she might not know when the rain would fall, so she chatted with Xiang Jin and her grandmother for a while and said that she was going to break the corn.

At the beginning, Aunt Bao Gu and Liao from their family also helped break up, so this time, Bao Gu Xiangjin from Aunt Liao's family will also help.

After Xiang Jin's grandmother heard about it, she also said that she would help break it up.

So everyone packed up the door, leaving only Xiang Nan at home to look after the house, and then set off directly.

Aunt Liao's family doesn't have much land, and she basically grows soybeans and mung beans and other legume crops, so she doesn't grow much corn, only about two or three percent of the land.

Therefore, Xiang Jin suggested that the corn cobs should be torn directly from the corn-breading stalk, instead of breaking the box back, and just dump it on the courtyard dam head or the eaves of the street to dry.

Aunt Liao agreed, so everyone broke it together. After breaking it for a while, their back baskets were full. be quick.

Xiang Jin and grandma thought so too, so they accepted it.
