Chapter 64 You can get as much as you want (throw the monthly ticket over!)

Lu Miao pursed her lips, and the corners of her lips drooped slightly downwards, a little discouraged, and the heat that had just been swept away by the breeze also enveloped her again. In my heart, I felt extremely hot and depressed.

Lu Miao groaned and tugged at the wild wormwood on the side of the road, stepping on the dirt bumps on the path and kicking her feet, which was already a sign of unhappiness.

Fu Jingyou turned around and saw that although her little face was tense, her eyes were staring at the lake on one side very seriously, so he guessed what she was looking for:

"I usually go out early. They are everywhere in rivers and lakes. If you really want to catch them, it’s actually very easy.”

"Do you know what I'm looking for?"

Fu Jingyou was confused, "It's not the king... you're looking for a turtle?"

"I'm looking for a turtle!" Lu Miao shook her head and nodded, He glanced around and said, "But you're saying that turtles are everywhere, why didn't I see any?"

Fu Jingyou is tough. He raised his chin towards the big black cow in front, "It's not like there is a cow walking in front."

And it's not too early now, the dew is almost dry, even if there is no cow walking in front. The grass in front was disturbed and the temperature was rising. Almost all those tortoises who climbed ashore at night to get some air went back into the water and hid under the aquatic plants for shade.

Catching a tortoise is really a very small matter. Fu Jingyou didn’t want Lu Miao to worry about this matter anymore, so he coaxed in a soft voice:

“Okay, let’s go, I’ve caught all the turtles. ”

“Caught? "How did you catch him?" Lu Miao looked back and trotted after him, "Didn't you just come back? Why didn't I know when?"

"This morning." "This morning?"

"Yeah."

Lu Miao remembered it and said, "No wonder when we met, I saw your trouser legs were wet!"

Fu Jingyou smiled teasingly and didn't care. , "In addition to turtles, there are also Order something else. I'm not sure if I can eat it. You can tell after reading it."

Lu Miao nodded, but still asked curiously: "What's there?"

"Hai... ”

The local dialect "Haizi" refers to crabs. Afraid that Lu Miao wouldn't understand, Fu Jingyou paused and then said:

"There are a few crabs, as well as loaches and eels. There are also big and small Huang Yatou." "A few."

Lu Miao saw crabs in the lake just now, but they were very small, no bigger than a thumb at most.

In her mind, a crab of this size must be inedible.

As for the loach and eel, as long as they are not too small, you can cook a decent dish on a plate.

As for the yellow girl, Lu Miao was really frightened. After thinking for a long time, she still didn't understand what the yellow girl was.

Ask Fu Jingyou. Fu Jingyou only said that it was a fish with small spines on both sides of the fish's head. He couldn't tell anything else.

Lu Miao had no choice. She had no choice but to suppress her curiosity. She had to go back and look at it at noon to find out what it was.

While talking, the two of them walked along the trail for a while. The lotus leaves growing by the lake were not as many as those in the center of the lake, but they were not absent.

Catching two tender lotus pods near the shore, Fu Jingyou reached out and picked one.

The other one was a little far away. He leaned over and hooked it with a sickle. He took it off and handed it to Lu Miao, not forgetting to tell him:

"Be careful, there are small thorns on the lotus pole."

Lu Miao The chicken pecked at the rice and nodded, excitedly taking it: "Thank you!"

The surface of the lotus pod still had a moist smell of dew. Lu Miao peeled one open. The lotus seeds were white and the lotus heart was green, and she stuffed it into her mouth to chew. I tasted it.

Perhaps because the lotus pods are still tender, the bitterness of the lotus seeds is not tasted, but the sweetness fills the mouth. Lu Miao's eyes were bright, like a greedy child who found his favorite snack and quickly peeled off another one and stuffed it into his mouth.

Looking at her impatient look, Fu Jingyou knew that he had picked the right lotus.

“The water here is deep and there are few lotus pods, and there are many wetlands where people work. The lotus leaves and lotus flowers there are like growing in paddy fields. You can pick as many as you want.”

Fu Jingyou is carrying a sickle. , and said that there were many wetlands in the place where he worked, and there were rice fields along the road. Lu Miao was originally confused about what kind of work he was responsible for today, but after hearing this, he gradually understood.

“Are you responsible for cutting rice today?”

Although the rice in the rice field on one side has tassels, it is still green, and it is obviously not time to cut it yet.

Lu Miao asked curiously: "Isn't it too early to cut at this time?"

"No. This area of ​​millet will have to wait two more days to be cut. Today we have to cut it. It is an early-season rice, which matures earlier than other millets.”

Fu Jingyou shook his head. He didn’t talk much in the past, so he had close contact with Lu Miao, and he only spoke a few words as they gradually became familiar with each other. sentence.

Seeing Lu Miao's curiosity, he patiently explained a few words:

"The quality of early-season rice and the appearance of the shelled rice are not as good as those of mid-season and late-season rice. The team members don't plant much when they can, and they are not prepared to use this as work rations and hand it over. They keep it for the team at the end of the year. The members' families are suffering. After a year and a half, who wants to try it? If it’s fresh, I’ll use my work points and money to try it back.”

Lu Miao nodded and asked, “Is this the same kind of brown rice I exchanged for in the team?”

Fu Jingyou nodded, and Lu Miao understood what he meant.

The outer shell of brown rice has not been completely faded, and the taste is not only hard to a certain extent, but also a little dry.

Fu Jingyou is used to eating whole grains. When they ate together before, he ate brown rice deliciously, but for Lu Miao, it was too much. Brown rice sometimes tasted like chewing dregs to her.

It is especially obvious when steaming in the educated youth spots.

As Fu Jingyou said, the quality and appearance of early-season rice are not as good as those of mid-season and late-season rice. In comparison, excluding the fact that the chaff is not completely removed and the cooking method, the taste of early-season rice should also be inferior. .

Various negative buffs have accumulated. For Lu Miao, who is used to eating fragrant rice and polished rice, it is hard to blame her for being picky.

"Where can I buy better rice? The kind with the chaff removed?"

"Go to the grain and oil food station in town. Rice grain requires a ticket."


The rice sold at the food station is peeled with special shelling equipment. Compared with the rice that is purely manually peeled in the countryside, there is still a big gap.

Fu Jingyou thought for a while, and then added, "But the quota is limited, and there are also grain and oil books, so it is not easy to buy."

Lu Miao raised her eyebrows and pursed her lips, quite a bit. Dissatisfied with this reply:

"Then there are no other channels?"

Other channels? Of course there is.

Fu Jingyou wanted to say something, but then paused as he thought of something.

After a brief thought, he changed the subject and asked Lu Miao:

"It should be there, why, do you want it?"

"Yeah!"
< br>Lu Miao nodded obediently. Fu Jingyou looked at her expression and was about to say that the brown rice in the team was also the best fine grain. Before she could say anything, she heard her murmuring bitterly:

"I don't like the brown rice that the team replaced. I want the kind that is glutinous when cooked and chewy when eaten...Can I buy it, Fu Jingyou? It doesn't matter how much the ticket costs, I don't care!"
