Previous page        Return to Catalog        Next page

    It's Saturday, a rare day of good weather.  After eating, Zhang Qian urged Liu to take off his clothes and change.  She has developed a habit of doing a lot of laundry every Sunday.

    Liu Junhao originally wanted to step in and help, but was driven away by his wife.  He sat in the yard for a while and suddenly thought that there were sweet potatoes burning under the stove.  After dinner, I got busy and completely forgot about this matter. It is probably time to cook it now.

    During breakfast, he cut a few sweet potatoes and threw them into the pot. In the end, there was one left uncut. Liu Junhao took advantage of the good fire in the pot and threw the sweet potatoes in to bake.

    Zhang Qian was originally worried that it would not be cooked enough and wanted to add more fire to it, but he finally stopped her.  Liu Junhao is a veteran of roasting sweet potatoes, so he naturally knows that the heat is just right. If more firewood is added, it will definitely burn, and it will become charred and cannot be eaten at all.

    He arrived at the stove and casually scratched the charcoal ashes with a branch, sparks suddenly burst out from inside.  A yellow-brown sweet potato covered in charcoal ash rolled out.

    Take a small stick and beat it on the potato skin, and the charcoal ash will be beaten cleanly.  Although it was still a bit hot, Liu Junhao couldn't wait any longer.  When you break it gently, a stream of hot water vapor suddenly emerges, mixed with an alluring fragrance.  The orange sweet potato meat makes people salivate just looking at it.

    "Zhizhi" Before he started eating, the monkey smelled the taste first, squatted in front of him with his face raised, and stared at the sweet potato with his eyes.

    "You want to eat?" Liu Jun was a little amused when he saw it, and lowered his hand about ten centimeters to tease.

    "Zhizhi" This guy kept jumping on the ground and stretched out his claws several times.

    "I won't give it to you even if you want to eat it. Who told me not to give it to me when I picked apples yesterday?" Damn, he finally got his revenge. Yesterday, his wife ridiculed him very much because of the apples.  Now the situation is changing, looking at Wukong looking at him longingly, with a pitiful expression, Hao is quite proud and takes a bite of the sweet sweet potato

    Knot.  He immediately jumped out of his chair.  He kept blowing in his mouth.  It's too hot.  In order to tease the monkey, he even forgot to break open the sweet potato and eat it later.

    Hot and happy!  The taste of roasted sweet potatoes is different from that of boiled sweet potatoes.  Sweeter.  Even more crispy and smooth, your mouth will be filled with saliva.  The fragrance lingers.

    "Turn somersaults. I'll give you some points from somersaults." When he saw Wukong wandering around him.  Liu Junhao became energetic.

    This guy seemed to really understand and rolled his body flexibly on the ground.  Then she ran to him again.

    It looks like it's doing well.  Liu Junhao broke off half a sweet potato and handed it to the monkey's paw.  This guy has no taste for food.  Just stuff the whole sweet potato into your mouth.

    Then it was burned so hard that it started jumping around in the yard.  Liu Junhao looked very happy.

    Zhang Qian smiled and pushed him and said: "You are really like a child, give it to him when it's cold."

    At any rate, this guy wasn¡¯t too stupid. He jumped to the basin and drank a few mouthfuls of cold water before settling down.

    When the piece of sweet potato was empty, they surrounded it again. This time Liu Junhao did not need to open his mouth and rolled over twice.

    In the end, I didn¡¯t eat much of the roasted sweet potato, and the monkey had to reimburse me for the rest.

    This guy had enough to eat and drink, and then started to fight with Doudou, from the chicken coop to the reed stack.  The cat scratched and the monkey scratched, and chaos suddenly broke out in the yard.

    He was about to open his mouth to scold, when suddenly both guys screamed and ran down.  Doudou quickly got into Liu Junhao's arms, while the monkey jumped up the tree.

    "What did you find?" Liu Junhao stood up and took a look at the reed pile, and found that there were many wasps crawling on the reed poles.

    He realized that it must have been the two guys fighting on the reed pile just now, which alerted the Bumblebee.  It's a warm day today, so the wasps are a little more active than usual.  After a while, seven or eight of them were flying over the reed stacks.

    Liu Junhao understands Doudou¡¯s fear of bumblebees. This guy was not very angry when he first came to the house. He ran around everywhere and was stung several times by bumblebees.  Later, it became completely honest and would not go to the reed pile when nothing happened.

    That monkeyseeing that Wukong was still jumping on the jujube branch, Liu Junhao knew that it must have been stung.

    The monkey deserves it, let him have a taste of it, and see if he dares to make trouble in the yard next time.  However, considering the poisonous nature of the bumble bee, Liu Junhao did not dare to delay and hurriedly called Wukong down.

    "Si" Seeing the monkey's swollen arm, both of them were surprised. It had been stung by a few wasps just now. After a while, the arm was swollen.

    "Should we take it to the street for the vet?" Zhang Qian asked worriedly.

    "Is it okay? Last time Doudou was stung, I put some toothpaste on it and the swelling subsided in half an hour." Liu Junhao went back to the house and wiped hisTake out the ointment, squeeze out half a tube and apply it on the monkey's arm.

    This guy probably knew that he was treating its injuries, so he didn't move around, but squatted on the stone slab.

    ?????????????????????????? But I couldn¡¯t stay idle, and something happened again within half an hour.

    It smelled the slightly fragrant toothpaste, so it turned its head and refilled it twice, and now it was ready to eat.

    Minutes later, the toothpaste was licked clean by it.  It didn't matter, it kept biting it with its teeth, and it seemed like it wanted to continue eating.

    Liu Junhao hurriedly stretched out his hand to grab it, and nothing would be good if it fell into his hands.

    "Uncle Xiao Hao, Aunt Hua, are you guys relaxing at home?" At this time, Liu Qiyong came to the door.

    "You're here, sit down," Zhang Qian said with a blushing face.  They have been married for almost two months, and she is still not used to this title.

    When she was not married, everyone in the village would call her Teacher Zhang when they saw her.  As soon as she got married, people's names immediately changed. The older generation still called her Teacher Zhang, while the lower-ranking ones like Liu Qiyong and Liu Qihua called her "Hua Aunt."

    This is a common name for rural people, usually when meeting younger elders.

    Even so, Zhang Qian still felt a little uncomfortable. She once complained to Sunana several times on QO, saying that she felt that she was getting older as soon as she got married.

    "Is this your monkey?" Liu Qiyong wanted to get closer and take a closer look, but Wukong didn't give him a chance and slipped away and jumped far away.

    "You smoke?" While Zhang Qian was talking, she had already taken out the cigarettes from the house.

    "Uncle Xiao Hao, you have time today, I want to ask you to do a favor." Liu Qiyong lit his cigarette and took two puffs and asked.

    "You and I are so polite. I have time every day to talk directly." Liu Junhao punched him with a smile. The two of them grew up peeing in live mud together, so there was no need to be so polite.

    "My potatoes have been harvested, and I want you to help dig a sweet potato well."

    In the past two years, not many families grew sweet potatoes in the village. Even if they did, they would only have enough land to feed themselves.

    I never thought that the price of sweet potatoes would skyrocket last year, reaching more than one pound per kilogram.  Er Mazi harvested nearly 2,000 kilograms of sweet potatoes last year and made a fortune from sweet potatoes.  Because of this, many families planted half an acre of sweet potatoes in autumn.

    Liu Qiyong¡¯s family planted more this year, planting almost two acres of sweet potatoes.  The sweet potatoes in the field had just been dug the day before yesterday. His wife was afraid that they would be piled up in the yard and freeze, so she urged them to dig a sweet potato well as soon as possible.

    A few days ago, he heard Er Mazi say that Liu Junhao was a master at digging sweet potato wells, so he came over to ask for help.

    Liu Junhao naturally did not refuse and agreed to the matter.

    When he was digging a sweet potato well for someone else, he realized that it was almost time to dig his own sweet potatoes.

    Although there are few sweet potatoes planted in the backyard, it is less than one-third of the land.  But it can't stand being irrigated by spring water, and it bears too many fruits.  Based on the yield of spring sweet potatoes, at least more than two thousand kilograms of sweet potatoes can be dug out.

    In this weather, you should go down the well immediately after digging sweet potatoes, otherwise they will freeze in a few days.

    Liu Qiyong¡¯s family chose the sweet potato well on a high fort outside the yard. The terrain is slightly higher and it is not easy to dig out water.

    They didn¡¯t delay, they chose the location and started digging directly.  First, Liu Junhao dug underneath, and Liu Qiyong used a rope to pull the soil.  The two of them cooperated very well, and within a short time, two large piles of soil were piled up around them.

    "Uncle Xiao Hao, can you come up and have some tea and take a break?" Liu Qiyong was sweating just from pulling soil.

    "That's fine." When Liu Junhao heard this, he supported the well wall with his hands, then kicked off with his feet, and jumped up to the ground in a matter of seconds.

    After resting for a while, he continued working. This time it was Liu Qiyong¡¯s turn.  However, Liu Junhao saw that he was working too slowly and it took him three to five minutes to dig a basket of soil, so he just asked him to come up and continued digging inside.

    In less than three hours, the sweet potato well was dug.

    Liu Qiyong¡¯s wife originally wanted to keep him for lunch, but Liu Junhao refused.

    We discussed it with Professor Zhao when we got home. They also planned to dig in the afternoon. As for the location, it was in Professor Zhao¡¯s courtyard.  This is mainly because there are too many trees on Liu Junhao's side, and the ground is full of tree roots, which is not easy to dig.

    When he was digging, Liu Qiyong also came to help.  Not only him, Professor Zhao and Mr. Wang were watching it interestingly, but they also put on gloves and straw hats to have a good time.

    "Don't join in the fun. Digging sweet potato wells is very tiring. Besides, you have never dug sweet potato wells before, so you can't dig them well at all." Liu Junhao was afraid that their old arms and legs would fall, so he refused.

    "You're looking down on people. When we dug the sweet potato well, you didn't know where it was. Let me tell you, when I was studying agriculture in Dazhai, I was the pacesetter of the production team." Mr. Wang said with confidence.

    Liu Junhao can¡¯t refuse, I had to let them go down and try their hand.  But after a while, he quickly called them to come up.

    ??????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????? out of the blue, I don¡¯t know how he got this role as a model. If the sweet potato well is dug like this, it will collapse.

    Although digging a sweet potato well is a laborious job, in fact it requires quite high technical requirements.  If you dig indiscriminately, the well may collapse.  Even if everything is fine at the time, it will collapse after a while, and it will be a big trouble if you have to rework it.

    Sweet potato wells have two shapes: gourd shape and plum blossom shape.  Most houses in rural areas are dug in the shape of gourds, which is the strongest structure.  Of course, if you have too many sweet potatoes, you can only dig them into plum blossom shapes. Four sweet potato cellars can hold four to five thousand kilograms of sweet potatoes at one time.
