Dressed as a cute kid with a farm: Pick up a brother to farm

Chapter 105: Fish and Shrimp Battle, River Mud

"Okay, eat it! I'll make you some apple juice."

The baby has grown several balls and is now able to slowly eat wontons.

The flower wontons are small, and Ye Yaoyao can eat them in one bite and finish the whole thing.

However, Meng Huaishao, the parent who provides him with food and clothing, has a request.

You should eat in small bites and chew slowly for better digestion. If you eat in big mouthfuls, not only will it make you look ugly, it will also cause stomachache.

Therefore, Ye Yaoyao eats in small bites for the sake of her beautiful image and to avoid stomachache.

Eat half of it in one bite and finish it in two bites.

?(???)?grace

Over there, Meng Huaishao had already taken out the steamed apples and added water to make apple juice for the baby.

The apple juice was ready, and half of the wontons on Ye Yaoyao's plate were gone.

"Eat slowly, there is still not enough."

Meng Huaishao put the apple juice on the dining table, rubbed Ye Yaoyao's little head, and went back to work.

He rolled out a lot of wonton wrappers, so he could make some wontons and freeze them.

After a month or so, the freezer of the refrigerator was no longer empty.

There are many kinds of pheasants, rabbits and pork.

The shrimps were nothing, because Meng Huaishao simply caught the small shrimps and put them into the farm space, and dug a separate pit to raise them.

Based on the experience of raising wild rabbits, animals brought in from outside do not grow faster, and their development speed is basically the same as that of the outside world.

Unlike pheasant and crucian carp, two local species, they are not affected by the outside world at all.

The former grew from a chick into an adult chicken in just a few days, not only providing them with eggs every day, but also hatching chicks.

The total number of the latter has always remained in the hundreds, with the only difference being between fry and large fish.

This is what Ye Yaoyao counted when she was bored.

At first Meng Huaishao didn't know and put the caught shrimps directly into the stream, and they were almost eaten up.

He was regretting that he could no longer raise lobsters, but Ye Yaoyao told him that the shrimps were eaten by crucian carp!

Thinking that the river water in the small mountain village was becoming increasingly shallow and that the baby loved to eat shrimps, Meng Huaishao simply dug a hole by the stream and tried to raise lobsters again.

Unexpectedly, he actually succeeded!

Those small shrimps, with occasional feeding, gradually grew up without any trouble.

Except, occasionally some lobsters are ignorant of the danger and dig holes to sneak into the stream, where they are besieged by crucian carp.

Sometimes, the crucian carp would jump and turn over and jump into the lobster pit, eating a bunch of small shrimps in one mouthful, making its belly full, and then it would be surrounded and blocked by lobsters.

The battle between lobster and crucian carp provided a lot of fun to the baby out of nowhere.

Meng Huaishao thought about what happened a few days ago when Ye Yaoyao pulled straw to catch lobsters and then threw them into the creek. He chuckled and continued to work.

He cut large pieces of wonton skin using various molds, pinched the edges tightly, and then put them into frozen portion boxes one by one. Next time he wanted to eat them, he could just take them out and cook them.

The remaining scraps and stuffings can all be put into the pot and cooked, and then the sauce is made into delicious noodle dumpling soup.

After finishing breakfast, Meng Huaishao went to the open space to play with the mud.

This mud was dug from the river before.

-

After the village chief was able to walk, he led the villagers to look for places to store water.

After searching for a long time, I finally chose a shady place at the back of the mountain.

It is very steep there, but there is a spring. Although it is not big, it has become extremely moist over the years.

If there is anywhere to find water when drought strikes, it is probably here.

If you want to retain the life-saving water, you still have to work hard.

So the village chief mobilized everyone to clean up the puddle under the spring and cleared out a deep pit.

Then, they collected stones from everywhere and reinforced the pit.

They collected straw from each household and dug mud from the river to make many mud bricks to thicken the pit.

Not only that, they also cut down a lot of trees and built a thick roof for the pit.

All that was left was where the spring water flowed and where the buckets were used to fetch water.

The place where you fetch water from the bucket has a cover to protect it from the sun.

The whole village worked hard for ten days and finally succeeded.

But there was little spring water, and after a month, not even half of the pit was filled.

This was the result of Meng Huaishao secretly adding water to it with Ye Yaoyao's consent...

Originally, everyone wanted to fetch water to store.

But firstly, the mountain road is steep and unsafe;

Secondly, the water in the river was no longer enough for irrigation, and they still had to focus on the crops;

Thirdly, someone has been hired to repair the village well, and the impact is not that big at the moment. But if it is overused, the well may dry up, which would be like killing the goose that lays the golden eggs, and is not cost-effective.

In addition, the water level in the big pit is rising slowly. Although it is slow, the fact that it is rising makes people feel at ease.

Due to various reasons, this huge pit, which took so much effort to build, was left to fend for itself.

Fortunately, Ye Yaoyao and Meng Huaishao cheated, otherwise, how could the water level rise instead of falling?

Meng Huaishao's mud was what was left over from that time.

At that time, he said that he wanted to dig some mud and bring it back, so that he could make some mud bricks and build a wall when he had nothing to do.

Before the adults expressed their opinions, the children in the village listened and without saying a word, they helped him carry back all the remaining mud from the river, leaving not a single bit behind...

What else can Meng Huaishao say about this?

Of course I gladly accepted it!

Then, Meng Huaishao boiled mung bean soup in a large iron pot, added a lot of brown sugar, and invited these hard-working children to drink the mung bean soup.

I also made corn buns and chicken porridge for them.

The corn buns were filled with a small amount of white flour, and the chicken porridge contained a whole chicken, all chopped into small pieces...

It’s not that Meng Huaishao can’t afford a better one, it’s mainly because one should not be too ostentatious.

Just these are enough for the children to have a full and delicious stomach!

There were even younger children who asked him, "Brother Xiao Meng, do you want more mud? I'll go dig it tomorrow!"

As he said this, he licked the corner of his mouth, obviously wanting another meal.

"Or, I can help Brother Xiao Meng make mud bricks tomorrow!"

"No need for now."

Meng Huaishao shook his head and declined.

"There are many things to do in the village every day. It is not convenient for me to go there. I can't disturb you. I will just make mud bricks slowly at home."

Seeing that someone was about to speak up, Meng Huaishao smiled and said, "You can't let me not work every day and just take care of cooking, right? Then I won't have time to play with Yaoyao, and she will cry~"

Ye Yaoyao pouted her lips in dissatisfaction, her eyes widened.

Her unscrupulous brother can use her as a shield without any burden and very naturally!

Angry!

But, you can't take it down after you lift it.

Seeing the fat boy looking obviously lost, Meng Huaishao pointed to the kitchen and said.

"But, my brother made too many steamed buns and we can't finish them. Later, each of you can take two back home, okay?"

Meng Huaishao squatted slightly and looked at the little fat boy who was younger than himself.

"May I?"

The little fat boy's eyes lit up.

"of course can."
