Chapter 41 Charcoal Burning
"Sambo, let's run!" Yan Yu smiled happily, feeling free even after leaving her uncle.
Yan’s second son had tied the two of them to the back of the cow long ago, holding the rein symbolically with one hand, and helping his daughter hold the straw hat that was about to fly at any time with the other hand.
Waiting for his daughter to have enough fun, the father and father got off the back of the bull and walked slowly.
"Father, I'm afraid everyone is running out of water." Yan Yu said.
She saw that the water tanks of the villagers were empty.
"It can be seen from the number of steamed buns changed. Although I still eat three meals, the portion is less." Yan's second child naturally also noticed it.
"Sambo, can you find the water source?" Yan Yu asked with hope.
Sambo shook his head, there is no such function.
Yan Yu sighed.
"The platform will open at 0 o'clock tonight. If it still connects to the three people from last time, Dad, who do you think can get more water?" Yan Yu tilted her head and thought about it.
Yan Er Er: "It doesn't look like any of them."
One lives by drinking nutrient solution.
One has water everywhere, but cannot drink it, and lives on the bottled water provided by the platform.
Although the last one may have water, but thinking about the environment he is in, it is desperate to get food and water.
"Why haven't we got out of the scope of the drought yet!" Yan Yu was a little annoyed.
Because of taking shortcuts, they are farther and farther away from official roads, and farther away from counties, towns and villages.
Sometimes there is even no way forward, and they forcibly step on a way.
In addition to the barren and dry land and the stinky water beaches that have not been completely dried, there are bare stone mountains one after another.
Yan Yu: "I really want that uncle's exploration and collection robot. If I have it, it will be so convenient to find water sources and food!"
"Daughter, wake up, you also said that it is a robot, even if it is covered with bionic skin, how can we explain this sudden extra person." Yan Laoer knocked her small head.
"We have already traveled quite far. According to everyone's footsteps, we can walk more than 20 kilometers a day. These two days are much better than the beginning. It looks like 30 kilometers less. Calculate it this way...
Whoo! It's quite a lot, at most half a month, we can reach the first small goal and walk out of Qishan Mansion. "
Yan Lao Er struggled for a while, and said again: "Forget it, I will show you."
Yan Yu:? ? ?
What are you looking at?
The two of them went to the cattle again, this time Yan Lao Er checked and checked them again and again, and tied them tightly.
Yan Yu didn't know why, but she began to look forward to it, feeling that her father was going to make a bigger move.
"Sambo, go up the mountain, drive!"
Even if he had done enough psychological construction, Yan's second child was still shaken to the point of being a mess.
On the other hand, his daughter was so excited that she couldn't stop screaming, her little voice was hoarse.
"My God! Sanbao, you are amazing! You can jump so high and jump so far, how can you be so good!" Yan Yu did not hesitate to praise her.
Standing on the peak of the highest stone mountain nearby, she finally saw the long-lost green.
The green mountain was far away from them, but what mattered, she saw—hope.
"I saw you!" Yan Yu declared domineeringly: "Wait for me to pass!"
Yan's second son can't speak for the time being, he feels like opening his mouth, and he has to confess breakfast here.
When going down the mountain, Sanbao tried his best to be as gentle as possible, but Yan's second child still couldn't take it anymore, so he slowed down for a while.
Yan Yu handed him the bamboo tube worriedly: "Father, are you okay?"
Yan Er Er shook his head, feeling numb.
"Why don't you faint?"
Yan Yu blinked and blinked her eyes: "It feels quite exciting, I really don't feel dizzy."
The ancient pure natural stone mountain is quite irregular, and it is naturally raised, so it can grow as long as you want.
There is no artificially opened road up the mountain, and it is hard to go up the mountain purely by mechanical brakes, which is not exciting.
"Let's go back, and check your list again to see if there is anything missing." Yan Lao Er was stupefied, and let Sanbao drive automatically again when he went back.
He closed his eyes, listening to the daughters read one by one:
"There are a lot of pots and pans, but they can't be replaced all at once, at most two.
There are so many straw sandals, it would be great to sell all of them to the platform, but unfortunately only part of them can be sold.
Two of Cui Lang’s four medicines are for diarrhea, and two are for colds. If the sister can tell her clearly, the medicine may be less effective.
The scooter... the stuff of the folks is crowded, and there are two left, no problem, but it is a bit difficult to sell this, so let's not think about it for the time being.
Each family has a lot of clothes and quilts, which are difficult to deal with.
Father, what do you think I secretly sold two copies of Uncle’s book? "
Yan's second brother opened his eyes in a hurry: "Then your uncle must not fight you hard! Look at him and your elder brother, two bookworms, they read books when they get the chance."
"And Dad, how are you preparing for the charcoal burning?"
"I made an agreement with the Qi family brothers. They will look for wood at noon, and try to burn it in the evening when they rest."
During the rest time every day, the villagers spend time looking for firewood. Sometimes it is easy to find, and sometimes it takes a long distance. It is better to try the method of bamboo slips and burn some charcoal, which is easy to carry.
"It's just an excuse to look at the wood pile far away." Yan Laoer said, and he realized it, and laughed: "Yes, we will burn charcoal on the day when the platform is opened, regardless of whether it is useful or not."
…
The father and daughter returned to the team, and they could smell the delicious smell of meat from a long distance away.
Yan Yu ran over quickly and saw that the piece of air-dried meat hanging on her car was missing, so she laughed so hard that her eyes disappeared.
"Mom! Do we eat meat?"
Li Xuemei raised her hand to wipe off her sweat, and said with a smile, "I'm lucky today. I found a small handful of wild vegetables and fried them with meat."
Frugal on food and expenses, finally waited until the second platform opened, and Li Xuemei couldn't help but want to eat something good and spend a little extra time.
Pour some oil, then put the sliced meat, stir-fry a few times, the aroma will burst out, then a handful of wild vegetables, and a little bit of her mixed seasoning.
Don't mention the hookers!
Everyone's eyeballs can't wait to stick to Yan's pot.
Even Yan Huaiwen put down his book and strolled around.
Can't help but look this way with a glance.
As soon as the small table was set, the Yan family returned to their seats automatically.
As soon as the sliced meat was imported, Yan Yu fell into great happiness.
Aww! The meat is the most fragrant!
…
The Qi family brothers helped find a lot of wood, both thick and thin.
This was also mentioned by the second brother Yan. He didn't know what kind of wood would burn well, so he tried them all.
When they were resting in the evening, the four of them walked farther and found a place near the river beach.
The three brothers of the Qi family began to pile up the logs vertically according to what Yan Lao Er said, and then dug out river mud from the river bed that had not completely dried up, and pasted it on the pile of logs, leaving the top hole.
Put a large handful of hay into the hole and light it.
Yan Lao Er started to do it himself, digging a few small holes for ventilation in the bottom.
"That's all right, just wait."
The Qi brothers looked at each other.
Is this the end?
So simple?
This can burn charcoal?
Where did Yan Laoer learn this unreliable method...
Can it be done?
Hematemesis three o'clock~
Why is writing so slow?
It is because you have to write carefully and seriously, so that you can keep these playful little babies (#^.^#)
Try not to save it, come and chase me every day hehe~! o(* ̄︶ ̄*)o
