MTL - The State Arranged For Me To Farm-Chapter 66 Second watch
In fact, Lin Ling was very happy to help realize the starling's request, but considering the uncertainty of Chunmian and the unreliable chicken ancestor, she decided to appease the starling's emotions.
"Mynah." Lin Ling took out a few grains of rice and fed them to mynah, "He is the son you have hoped for so much. It's no big deal if you get angry a few times."
The little green leaf who eavesdropped on the conversation suddenly stood up, are you sure this is comfort?
Of course it wasn't consolation, Lin Ling did it on purpose, why would a starling insist on forcing a chick to be his son? If it didn't take the initiative to find something, how could there be so many bad things? If the mynah didn't make a fuss, it would be the chicken ancestor who was annoyed.
As the saying goes: Don't make trouble for yourself! Don't take care of things that are not your own.
It's the same in the workplace, and it's the same in life. Myna has a son, so he should be responsible to the end.
Starling looked at Lin Ling aggrievedly, then rubbed his head against the back of her hand: "Boss, I don't want it anymore."
"That can't be done, you adopted Chunmian, then Chunmian will be your child for the rest of your life." Lin Ling pursed her lips, suppressed the smile on the corner of her mouth, and said with a straight face: "You adopted Chunmian, now you find it troublesome, and It would be immoral for you to try to throw it away."
"Chunmian eats and sleeps with you every day these days, calls you mother all the time, and relies on you very much. If you suddenly say that you want to abandon it, it will be sad."
Starling looked at Chun Mian who was chattering around looking for his mother outside the door, and sighed helplessly: "But it's so annoying, so stupid, and it's been a long time since I told it that it didn't understand."
"You also know it's annoying? I haven't chased you away when you were chattering in my ear every day." Lin Ling thought it was a good thing to let the starling raise Chunmian, at least it stopped making troubles, so She must let the starling continue to raise Chunmian: "Chunmian doesn't understand because it is still young. It will be fine when it grows up. When you talk to it a few times, it should understand."
Starling looked at Lin Ling in doubt, really? Why does it think she is a big fool?
The big fool Lin Ling continued to fool: "Think about it, if you train Chun Mian to be the first in the class in the future, you will get a lot more meat in the future."
Lin Ling continued to coax the mynah: "Today I exchanged some fish with someone, and I should be able to eat them in the first half of the year. If you and Chun Mian can get the top one or two in the exam, then you can share more fish. .”
Starlings are very excited, but they always take the first place in the exam at the end of summer. Can they get the top two?
The starling, who was so smart, rolled his eyes, "Chunmian is still young, so he won't be able to learn in a short while, why don't we change the method, let's not study, let's go out to pick seeds in the competition?"
Mynah and Chick Cub both like to peck at seeds and worms everywhere. If there is a real comparison of picking seeds, they must be the first.
But is Lin Ling so easy to talk to? "No, let's focus on learning. You don't want your son to do nothing in the future and just be an ordinary little rooster/rooster who can only crow, right?"
The starling scratched the ground irritably, he couldn't do without his son, he couldn't do without the exam, it really killed him.
Lin Ling could guess the collapse of the starling's spring sleep homework tutoring, and gave it an idea: "Well, you have a specialization in surgery, and you are good at finding seeds. Then you go out to look for seeds every day. As long as you can find them, I will share the food. Give you two extra dollars, okay?"
"In this way, you are the first in the exam, and the credit for finding the seed is enough for you to support your son."
Hearing what Lin Ling said, Myna thought it made sense: "Then I'll go out to look for seeds tomorrow, and I won't be lazy anymore."
Hearing this, Lin Ling squinted at the starling who made dangerous remarks: "Lazy?"
Sensing the danger, the starling immediately flapped its wings and flew out without saying anything or knowing anything.
Lin Ling: Heh! Wait for me!
Xiaolu looked at mynah sympathetically, shook the leaves, if you don't do it, you won't die!
When resting at night, Lin Ling took out her mobile phone and sent a message to 1200: "I agree to what you said before, please help me find a way to raise fish and pigs."
Lin Ling politely typed the word thank you again.
The other party quickly replied: "Have you started raising fish?"
Lin Ling replied: "I don't have any experience in breeding for the first time, and I need to learn some breeding methods."
Today she went to the bookstore to search, but she couldn't find any books on breeding, so she could only turn to 1200 for help, "Can you find it?"
The other party replied with a 'yes', and then disappeared again.
Is there no electricity? Lin Ling asked 1200 in a strange way: "Do you need a power bank?"
The other party waited for a long time before replying: "?"
Lin Ling: "I thought you ran out of battery, I can use things to recharge your battery here."
The other party didn't seem to expect Lin Ling's business to be so extensive: "No need."
Lin Ling answered the other party: "If you need it, you can talk to me, and I will give you a cheaper price."
The other party said: "Not for now."
"Okay." Lin Ling's three-point enthusiasm was broken by the other party's indifference, and he threw the phone aside and went to sleep.
In the next few days, I repeated the previous tasks, planting vegetables, planting trees, watering, staring at the vegetable field for harvesting and turning the soil.
When working, the little yellow chickens kept pawing around the newly dug up land, and they didn't know what they were pawing.
The chicks that have been hatched for more than 20 days have grown up a circle, gradually shed their fluffy yellow feathers, and slowly grow dark gray feathers.
"Don't hang around here, go find your mother." Lin Ling was really afraid that he would knock the chicks to death with a hoe, "Xiaolu, drive them away."
Xiaolu slid down from Lin Ling's wrist and stepped on the back of a chick, like a general Luye riding a horse: gray gray chicken! Go for me!
After sending the chickens away, Lin Ling continued to work, returned home after work, turned on the egg incubator brought back a few days ago, and picked out the eggs hatched by several hens these days. Fan, and then put them into the egg incubator together.
Xia Mo came to help: "Do you want to use this machine to incubate eggs?"
"I'll try to see if this machine works well." Lin Ling put the eggs away, and then plugged in the fully charged battery according to the instructions. After plugging in the electricity, the egg incubator turned on.
Brother Ugly wagged his tail and walked to the egg incubator: Are you ready?
Lin Ling said: "It takes more than 20 days, just like the chicken ancestor hatching an egg."
The chicken ancestor stared at the big machine curiously, and clucked: This will replace my big machine?
"You are an existence that no one can replace." Lin Ling didn't want the chicken ancestor to play tricks, so he coaxed the chicken ancestor.
Chicken ancestors clucking and clucking: a hearty alternative.
In fact, the chicken ancestor Zongba had to incubate eggs, go out for a walk every day during the day, and sleep after watching TV at night. Isn’t the life of retired elderly people more enjoyable than taking care of children?
"...All right." Lin Ling called Xia Mo, Brother Chou and Xiaolu over, and pointed to the place where the battery level was displayed on the incubator, "If you see that there is nothing here, remind me to change the battery, otherwise the power will be cut off halfway, and these The eggs couldn't even hatch."
At the end of Xia, the couple looked at the incubator and the battery seriously, expressing that they remembered it.
The chicken ancestor didn't care about this, he clucked and asked: I'm hungry! I want to eat meat.
"The rabbit meat is gone." Lin Ling didn't lie, the air-dried rabbit meat I made before was eaten up after the chicken ancestor came, "Can I eat eggs?"
I don't know if the chicken ancestor was angry with the chicks or something, but recently he doesn't want to eat eggs at all: he wants to eat meat.
Xia Mo said, "But we don't have meat anymore."
The chicken ancestor didn't care, anyway, he didn't want to peck potatoes every day.
"No one has meat, and I can't make it for you." Lin Ling paused: "But I can make cakes for you to eat."
Xia Mo asked Lin Ling suspiciously, "There is no more flour at home."
"It's okay, I can make it with other things." Lin Ling took out ten large potatoes, peeled and cut them into pieces, and steamed them until they were soft.
After steaming and softening, roll it into a puree, add eggs and chopped leeks, stir evenly, and then add an appropriate amount of salt to taste.
Put a little oil in the pan, then knead a small piece of mashed potatoes with your hands, try to make it into a round shape, and then flatten it with a shovel, and it will become a round cake.
Fry slowly over low heat until one side is golden brown, then fry the other side until both sides are golden brown.
Xiaolu stood by the stove and watched Lin Ling making potato pancakes: they were delicious.
"Of course the deep-fried food is delicious." Lin Ling sighed as he looked at the oily leftovers. He would definitely not be able to make fried chicken drumsticks in the future.
A pot of mashed potatoes can cook more than a dozen pancakes, and after Lin Ling is done frying, share them with everyone: "Be careful of being hot."
Brother Chou didn't care about these things, he grabbed his basin and hid in a corner to eat.
"It's not hot." As soon as Xia Mo finished speaking, his fingers were burned red, and he blew on his hand, "It's so hot."
Lin Ling told Xia Mo: "Blow it and eat slowly."
At the end of Xia's ears were red, he took the potato pancakes and blew in embarrassment, and couldn't wait to take small bites, "It's delicious."
Lin Ling hummed, picked one up and ate it slowly, the skin was crispy, the mouth was smooth and there was a strong eggy aroma inside, it tasted delicious.
The chicken ancestor was not picky any more, and cried a few times with satisfaction: I will make this again tomorrow.
"The oil at home can't stand doing this every day." Lin Ling thought about the rapeseed she had just planted a few days ago. It seemed that she had to work hard to give birth to several more times, so that she could eat fresh vegetable oil as soon as possible.
Although he didn't plan to make fried food for the time being, Lin Ling thought that potatoes could also be used to make something called starch.
She thought that starch can be used to make vermicelli, and an egg can be added to make cakes, and a little starch can also be added to make cabbage, so she came up with the idea of making starch.
So, after dinner, Lin Ling didn't watch a TV series with Xia Mo and the others, but washed two buckets of potatoes, cut them into small pieces, and then used a stone mill to grind the potatoes into mashed potatoes.
Then put it into clear water and knead repeatedly. After the water becomes turbid, put the mashed potatoes into a pot of clean water and knead repeatedly. After kneading, remove the mashed potatoes and put them aside. You can add an egg tomorrow to make breakfast.
In addition, let the water that has been scrubbed twice stand overnight, and when you get up the next morning, pour out the precipitated water, and dry the starch slurry that sinks to the bottom.
After two days in the sun, the starch dried up. Weighed it and found that it weighed about two catties. Although it was not a lot, it was enough to last for a long time.
Lin Ling put the starch away and put it in the cabinet: "Now the side dishes, starch, and condiments required for boiled pork slices are all ready, and the only thing missing is pork!"
