Chapter 57 Harvesting Grain
Gu Lixia explained sentence by sentence. The first step is to beat the rice grains after the rice is harvested. During the beating process, the rice is rotated left and right to ensure that the rice grains are completely detached. This is called threshing.
The second step is drying. In other words, it takes 2 to 3 days to evaporate the excess moisture in the rice under sufficient sunlight.
The third step is hulling to remove the hard shell outside the rice grains. The traditional hulling method is repeated rolling with graphite.
But Gu Lixia's space has a mechanized shelling machine.
The shells that are removed are bran, which can be used to feed livestock. For example, when geese are fed, in the winter when there is no food, the bran can be scooped into a basin, and hot water can be poured into it to mix it.
The last step is steaming, and the fragrant rice is freshly cooked.
Turning wheat into flour also requires four steps. The first step is to harvest the wheat and use light and temperature to dry the wheat to evaporate the moisture.
The second step is to pour it into the machine to filter out dust and soil, and then clean off the wheat husk.
Then put it into a woven bag and let it sit overnight to allow the moisture to fully soak into the wheat.
Finally, the wheat is poured into the grinder, which sucks in the wheat for grinding.
Of course, it is too early to say this now. Gu Lixia got on the harvester and drove it out of the machine operating room on the side of the backyard where the setting sun had not yet been built.
Jiang Wen was shocked when he saw Gu Lixia easily drive the harvester along the fence that had been opened on the side and rushed into the wheat field.
Then I was filled with excitement and pride. I was excited that I had encountered more advanced things and could draw and participate in the production. I was proud that my wife was better than me and knew more.
It seems that I am just like the prince consort who married the princess, living off her.
A large harvester can harvest 60 acres a day.
The harvester that Gu Lixia bought can harvest 30 acres a day, but Gu Lixia doesn't have that much land, so the wheat was harvested in about an hour.
I hurried Jiang Wen to the second floor, to his room to wash up and rest, as the space provided him with better rest.
Gu Lixia spent another hour or so to harvest the rice fields and drove the machine to spread the rice to every corner of the yard.
Gu Lixia was so tired that she didn't want to open her eyes after closing them.
So I went upstairs to wash up and go to bed.
I was dreaming that I was sitting outside in a stream and soaking my feet. Suddenly, the system said that it was time for Jiang Wen to go to work. Gu Lixia shuddered.
He sat up, got up from the bed, went to Jiang Wen's room, and knocked on the door for a long time before Jiang Wen woke up. His voice was a little hoarse.
Jiang Wen woke up. Gu Lixia accompanied him downstairs, heated up some milk and handed it to him. After drinking a cup of hot milk, Jiang Wen finally woke up.
Gu Lixia noticed the other party's fatigue, so she decided to let him rest in the space after finishing his night shift whenever she had time.
Gu Lixia let Jiang Wen out of the space and fell asleep with peace of mind.
I slept until five o'clock the next morning.
Wake up by the system.
Gu Lixia waited for Jiang Xiu to come back. She didn't plan to make breakfast first, after all, it was still early. She planned to go together to put together the curtains.
In fact, Gu Lixia had already figured out the basic pattern in her mind, after all, they were all irregular fabrics.
However, Gu Lixia did not plan to use those irregular fabrics directly. When choosing, she tried to pick some square ones.
So Gu Lixia picked out the piece that she thought was suitable and handed it to Jiang Xiu.
Jiang Xiu took it in her hand and gestured for a while, and she had a rough idea of it.
Gu Lixia took out the pieces of cloth that had been sorted that day, and then took out all the scraps of cloth in the bag.
The aunt and sister-in-law discussed and decided how to sew the curtains.
First use scissors to cut out pieces of the same size 10cm/10cm.
Then put the pieces together according to color, and then sew them in a straight line with a sewing machine.
Jiang Xiu used the sewing machine skillfully, and Gu Lixia helped pass the cloth. Before seven o'clock, the two of them had finished a curtain with bright colors.
Seeing that there were still quite a few scraps of cloth left, Gu Lixia and Jiang Xiu said, "We can make another one and hang it in your room."
Jiang Xiu actually thought the finished product looked pretty good after seeing it, but she didn't expect her second sister-in-law to suggest making one for her as well.
After thinking for a while, he said, "These scraps of cloth can be put together to make several clothes. Why don't we just forget about it?"
"How can we just let it go? You're a girl, you can't just let it go. You have to do it. This is our row. What if we lived in the back row? There were people with bad intentions standing on the roof and peeping into the house. Would you be afraid?"
"Don't think it's a waste. Making curtains also uses the cloth. Besides, with He Jiaojiao here, we can buy other scraps of cloth later."
Jiang Xiu saw that her second sister-in-law didn't seem to be joking, and what she said made sense. Besides, she also liked these new bright curtains. After all, her house was bare before, with nothing in it. "Okay, let's do it."
"That's right. We have to fight for what we deserve. This is your home. If you don't tell me, if I hadn't come, then you will always be bald. You are a grown woman, you can't do this."
"So it has to be done. And it's our day off today. I'll go cook, and you continue cutting the fabric."
After saying that, Gu Lixia went into the kitchen to cook.
After thinking about it, I decided to just make some steamed buns today, so I went back to the big house and called my sister-in-law Jiang Xiu.
My sister-in-law was already sitting there, cutting pieces of cloth carefully.
"Xiu'er, let's go, let's make flower rolls or meatballs first. Don't you want to learn?"
"Okay, I'll shake off the threads. Let's go." Jiang Xiu stood up and shook off the threads on her body. Then she and her sister-in-law went into the kitchen.
Gu Lixia didn't do much during the whole process. She just directed her sister-in-law to make the flower rolls. She only demonstrated it to Jiang Xiu at the beginning.
Gu Lixia felt that her sister-in-law was quite talented in cooking.
Gu Lixia once met a fellow traveler who really liked to cook, but the food he cooked was so bad that even dogs wouldn't eat it.
How does it taste? It has the flavors of rice, noodles, and seasoning, but nothing else.
Later, Gu Lixia also refused to eat the food she cooked. This was a hurt that she would remember for the rest of her life.
The hiker herself also realized that the food she cooked was not tasty. Later, she made it herself and tasted it and found that it tasted normal. Other people also gave it mediocre reviews.
I stopped thinking about cooking.
Gu Lixia felt that she could cultivate her sister-in-law in this aspect. Gu Lixia's childhood was the same as her current sister-in-law's, and she had never seen anything.
