The little one's purse connects the two worlds, turning a desolate village into a paradise.
Chapter 322 Steamed Rice Cake
"Grandpa Fang, why are you so clumsy? The potato seedlings have all fallen! Did you not drink your milk powder properly this afternoon? Are you having trouble holding them?" Ya Ya asked, pointing to the potatoes on the ground.
Seeing this, the village chief gently nudged Fang Tiesheng, who then snapped back to reality and quickly replied, "Hey, hey, it was Grandpa's mistake."
He hurriedly bent down to pick up the potato, but his fingertips still trembled slightly, clearly still reeling from the information he had just heard.
"What does the electric shock device look like, little girl? Is it convenient to take it out now?" Grandma Liu asked.
Ya Ya glanced around and the stall owner said that it couldn't be placed in a damp place. If it couldn't be placed on the ground, then it could only be placed on the kang (a heated brick bed).
"Okay, Grandma, I'll put it on the kang (heated brick bed). This thing is very heavy and dangerous! You can't touch it!" Ya Ya solemnly instructed the elders with a serious expression.
"We won't touch it randomly, absolutely not."
Ya Ya first took out the moisture-proof cloth and carefully laid it flat on the kang (a heated brick bed). Then, with a thought, a square black box immediately appeared in the center of the cloth.
Dr. Chen and Fang Tiesheng leaned closer, their reading glasses on, while the village chief squinted.
The black box, called an electric numbing device, has a long, smooth black rope attached to its back. At the end of the rope is a black-handled metal fork with only two points, the tips of which gleam with a cold metallic luster under the light.
Dr. Chen instinctively reached for the fork, but Ya Ya coughed and climbed onto the edge of the kang (a heated brick bed) with her short legs, putting her hands on her hips: "Grandpa Chen, don't touch it, cough cough! Listen up, everyone, this thing is very dangerous. The stall owner was originally unwilling to sell it to a little kid like me, but Grandma Duck turned into Grandpa Village Chief and bought it for me."
My uncle said that this electric shock device is so powerful that a person would collapse instantly if they touched it, and even a four- or five-hundred-pound fat pig would fall to the ground immediately if hit by it!
The village chief recalled the tingling sensation and shortness of breath that had run through his body during the day, and quickly grabbed Doctor Chen's hand. No one had ever mentioned the danger of that board, yet it was so powerful. This thing could knock down a four or five hundred-pound fat pig. With that touch, they probably wouldn't even have to wait until Qingming Festival; they could start the feast right now.
But how exactly should the power of this electricity be calculated?
The group stared at the electric shock device, wanting to get closer but not daring to.
The key issue is that I don't even know how to use this thing.
Just as I was pondering this, a noisy background voice drifted over my head: "First of all, regarding charging, use the original charger; don't plug in any other cables. It must be placed in a dry place while charging..."
Ya Ya held up a voice recorder and a small notebook: "Grandpa Fang, listen to what Uncle said. He explained how to use it and what to pay attention to. Uncle also said that these are all fully charged. And this is the instruction manual."
Fang Tiesheng took the two items from Ya Ya's hands, and the people in the room listened quietly to the recording.
If this thing is really as miraculous as Nannan said...
Switch, voltage adjustment, red light, 360 volts.
Fang Tiesheng muttered to himself as he slowly reached behind the black box. Ya Ya curiously squatted down and watched Grandpa Fang's movements.
"Stop!" Granny Liu shouted sternly.
She heard it clearly; this object was extremely dangerous. Before Nannan returned, she had overheard the village chief and Old Man Fang talking about what it felt like to be "electrified."
Once you get an electric shock, you can't touch it, and anyone else who gets near it will also be affected.
Her room is small, and if something goes wrong, it's one thing for them, being old and frail, but they can't afford to have even the slightest mishap with their daughter.
Fang Tiesheng's fingers froze. Seeing Granny Liu's ashen face and her little face almost touching the box, Ya Ya suddenly realized what was happening and quickly withdrew her hand.
"I'm sorry, I wasn't paying attention for a moment. Nannan, you can put this away for now. We just heard the boss say that it shouldn't be bumped or broken. We'll take it out again tomorrow morning and put it in the backyard, using this cloth as a pad. You little kids can't go near it."
Fearing that the two old men might cause further trouble, the village chief picked up the bag of potato seedlings and stood up, saying, "Come on, stop looking. There's plenty of time tomorrow. There's no rush."
Once the courtyard was quiet again, Grandma Liu bolted the door, and Ya Ya realized that she still hadn't taken out the steamed rice cakes and fruit tree seedlings.
"Little girl, go to the kitchen to wash your face and go to bed?"
Grandma Liu looked at Ya Ya's hair, which was a little flat from sweat, and said, "Grandma will give you some hot water and wipe your body down."
Ya Ya nestled into Grandma Liu's arms, and with a flick of her little hand, a steaming hot rice cake appeared in her palm.
"Wait a minute, Grandma, I have something delicious to eat. Let's eat it quietly. This is brown sugar steamed cake, it's so soft and sweet."
A sweet aroma wafted into her nose, and Grandma Liu looked at the soft, fluffy pastry with delight. "It's such a big piece! It smells so sweet."
Ya Ya's eyes curved into two little crescent moons. "I was so busy watching the movie that I completely forgot! I was planning to share it with everyone, but now it's just the two of us. Grandma, try some! It's soft and sweet. Grandma Duck loves it too; she ate five in one go!"
Grandma Liu took the steamed cake, broke it in half, and worried that the little one might have indigestion from eating too much at night. She put the smaller half back into Ya Ya's hand, saying, "Let's eat it together."
As she spoke, she took a big bite. The soft cake melted in her mouth, and the rich, sweet aroma of brown sugar slowly spread across her tongue, sweet but not cloying.
"It tastes really good."
Ya Ya chewed on the steamed cake in her mouth, repeating indistinctly, "It tastes really good."
"Oh, right, Grandma, I also bought some fruit tree saplings. Shall we plant them in the yard tomorrow? The grandpa who sold the fruit trees said we can plant grapes in the yard and build a big trellis so the grapes can grow all over the yard."
"Okay, tomorrow we'll help Nannan build the trellis and plant grapes."
"There are also peaches and apples. Grandpa said they would be sweet, so I bought five trees. Grandma Duck initially didn't allow it, saying it would affect the other fruit trees in the mountains, but later she agreed, but they can only be planted near the village courtyard."
"Then let's plant them outside the yard. Let's plant them together. The trees can grow for a long time, and we'll have fruit to eat every year."
"That's wonderful, we can have fruit to eat every year."
"Yes, that's wonderful. From now on, we'll have fresh fruit and surplus grain every year, and our lives will only become more and more secure."
The whispers inside the cabin gradually subsided, and the pace of speech slowed down.
The lights flickered a few times before slowly dimming.
……
"Yuqing, how much do you think we should sell these hats for?"
He Miao stared at the blank Xianyu account she had just registered on her phone.
The two of them specially set up a simple photo backdrop in the house and took several product photos of each of the little hats that Lotus Village had ever sold.
The community for these handmade hats for anime dolls is already small, and most people are used to trading on this platform. Putting them on their online store wouldn't get many views, so the two of them plan to list the hats and shoes on separate platforms.
