"This is really smelly." Li Feng didn't expect that the bullshit vine was so smelly that he almost vomited out the black rice just now. "Jia Jia, this thing is so smelly, is it really the ingredients for making black rice?"

Zhang Jiajia smiled and nodded. "Yes, this is for Titian. Without it, the black rice is not as fragrant as it is."

"Tixiang?" Li Feng couldn't figure it out that such a smelly thing was actually used for Tixiang. It was so magical.

"If you are not used to it, stay away from it, I'll pick it." Zhang Jiajia frowned when she saw Li Feng. "It's okay, haha, I'm just a little curious. Such a smelly thing can be used for Titian."

Zhang Jiajia smiled and said, "I'm quite puzzled when I saw this for the first time. Maybe this is the miracle of nature and the wisdom of our ancestors."

"This is true."

The two talked and laughed, picked the bullshit vine, then picked the rice wisteria, maple leaves, and big blood vine. These are all Chinese medicinal materials. Black rice leaves have the effects of nourishing yin and yang, refreshing the mind and strengthening the brain. The big blood vine replenishes qi. In addition to the fragrance, the bullshit vine has some other health benefits. The rice wisteria has the effect of removing moisture.

There is a kind of rice dumplings and rice in Li Feng's Dragon Boat Festival medicinal recipe, which are similar to black rice. They use mountain medicinal materials to soak glutinous rice to make delicious bamboo rice. "Is this enough?" Li Feng picked some big blood vines and said that the big blood vines were actually quite thin and like thatched roots.

"Enough."

Zhang Jiajia took it and put it in the bamboo basket.

"I'll recite it."

"It's okay, it's not heavy. Your arms and shoulders need to be kneaded properly. When you go back, I will tell Uncle Lian Cheng to help you wipe and massage with herbs, and it will be more comfortable tomorrow." Zhang Jiajia did not let Li Feng move the bamboo basket.

"It's okay, it's just a little sore." Li Feng smiled and waved his arms, grinning, it hurt a little.

Zhang Jiajia glanced at Li Feng and showed off her power. "Let's go, let's go back quickly, otherwise Shijiu'er will take over for others."

A stone mortar is slowly chiseled with a large piece of stone. It is like a huge wine cup, with the diameter of the mouth of the mortar not less than 70 to 80 cm. A large stone mortar usually requires four people to lift it. There are gong patterns in the mortar, and the body of the mortar must be buried underground, and the mouth of the mortar is exposed on the ground. The surroundings are flattened with broken ceramic cylinder pieces for easy cleaning.

On the mortar, a "mill body" made of a large tree section is mounted. There is a rod and a pestle under the head of the pestle, and an iron teeth are pressed on the mouth of the pestle. There are cross bars supporting the tilt on both sides of the belly of the pestle, just like a "seeker" that plays acrobatics to support the thing. A deep pit is dug underground at the end of the "mill" and when the center of gravity is moved to the tail of the "mill" and press it down into the pit, the head of the "mill" is lifted, then pounded, lifted, and then pounded. This is like pounding rice, pounding medicinal materials, etc.

There is a wooden pole or bamboo pole horizontally above the mortar, which is used to provide the handrail for people who pound things. Familiar veterans sometimes run and jump and pound it continuously; some even tie a stone on the head of the "mortar" to increase the weight, making it more powerful. This pounding method uses skill to speed up the speed, and may also be conducive to improving the processing quality.

"There are stone mortars in the village?"

"Yes, I'll pound it later." Zhang Jiajia said with a smile. "We're going to hurry up. Second sisters and the others will definitely find black rice leaves before us."

“Why?”

Li Feng couldn't understand. "We are not slow."

Zhang Jiajia's face turned slightly red. "I usually go to the mountain, but I don't know the situation in the mountains as well as the second sister and the others."

So, Li Feng thought why? "It doesn't matter, it's still early in the afternoon. Let's take your time and work slowly."

"Fengzi really knows how to flirt with girls."

"That's right, this guy is pretty good at pretending at first."

There was no discussion in the live broadcast room for a while. Li Feng and Zhang Jiajia were quite interesting, as if they were filming a TV series, and everyone smiled knowingly when they watched it.

"Fengzi is in the state."

"Dog food is sprinkled."

Li Feng looked at the live broadcast room and laughed. "Hurry up."

"Um."

The two returned to the village and the three new couples had already started pounding black rice leaves. "Does every family in the village have a stone mortar?"

"We have four stone mortars in our village, which are usually used by everyone." Zhang Jiajia brought Li Feng to the backyard of a family next to her.

There is a small stone mortar here. Zhang Jiajia took out the black rice leaves and put them in the stone mortar. "I'll step on it, don't move." Seeing that Li Feng was about to take action, Zhang Jiajia hurriedly pulled it. Li Feng's whole body was sore and swelling, and Zhang Jiajia knew it.

"It's really rare for a girl like Jia Jia to be like now."

"Yes, sensible, kind-hearted, hardworking, Fengzi took advantage of it."

"Fengzi dares to abandon the whole thing, and the brothers blow up his live broadcast room."

Li Feng was speechless. These guys are so loyal to Jiajia. Li Feng was chatting with Zhang Jiajia while picking up black rice leaves. "Why do I come and help me, I think it's better."

"It's okay, you're not tired." Zhang Jiajia wiped the sweat beads on her forehead and smiled at Li Feng.

"Wow, I smile so sweetly."

"Fengzi is so lucky."

"A good person has good luck, no, I will go to save someone on the way one day."

Li Feng rolled his eyes speechlessly. "This is character, character."

"Tsk, Fengzi, what kind of character do you have?" I was poor and my tone was sour. "You are cheap, why is this good thing? I haven't encountered it."

"Envy, jealousy and hatred."

"Add one, I want a beautiful girl like Jia Jia, too."

"Add two."

...

"Add six six six six."

Li Feng looked at Jiajia constantly refreshing and rolled his eyes speechlessly. "The phone is out of battery, and today's live broadcast will end here."

"I'll go, Fengzi is so bad."

Li Feng laughed. "Recharge later, and then broadcast it to everyone in the evening, and the bonfire dance party."

"This is almost the same. Fengzi, don't play tricks, otherwise everyone will kill you."

"goodbye."

Li Feng turned off the live broadcast, and there was still one grid left in his phone. "I still need to buy two more mobile phones, and I have to prepare a few power banks." Li Feng thought to himself, and put on his phone and stood up.

"Let's have a break."

Li Feng took out a tissue and handed it to Zhang Jiajia to wipe the sweat, and stepped on the wooden pedal. "I'll step on it for a while."

"It's okay, I'm really not tired." Zhang Jiajia even said that she was not tired, but she was actually a little panting and covered in sweat.

"I'm not tired yet, I'm sweating all over." Li Feng wiped Zhang Jiajia's forehead with a tissue, and Zhang Jiajia's face turned slightly red. "You really don't matter?"

"fine."

Li Feng smiled and said, "I am a man."

"whee."

Zhang Jiajia was amused by Li Feng's muscle gestures. "Then slow down, I'll clean up the black rice leaves and replace them." Well, the black rice leaves that Li Feng picked up seemed to be wrong.

Zhang Jiajia quickly packed up the black rice leaves, stepped on this side, and replaced Li Feng. "It's really okay."

"No, I've had a muscle strain and I can't do heavy work anymore. I'm a nurse, I know, be obedient." After saying that, I laughed out loud. "Sorry, the patient usually says he's used to it."

Li Feng was so amused that he was still a child. Be good. "Wait, I'll ask someone to help us."

Li Feng used his cell phone to call his cousin Zhang Dong. "What, I'll help you pound black rice leaves, okay."

Zhang Dong knew that Li Feng was pulling his bullfighting muscles very hard, so he helped Li Feng bring a power bank casually. "Thank you, cousin."

Zhang Dong glared at Li Feng angrily. This guy came to help himself. You should be so kind to me next to you. "Okay." Zhang Dong wiped the sweat beads and shouted loudly.

"Ah, OK."

Li Feng and Zhang Jiajia paused, looked at each other and smiled softly. Zhang Jiajia looked at Li Feng a little embarrassedly. "Is that done?"

"It's still early."

Zhang Dong rolled his eyes. "Jia Jia, I'll go back first."

"Brother Dongzi, Fengzi's muscles are a little strained, and they are a little sore and painful. Tell me to Uncle Lian Cheng, help me soak some medicine and massage Fengzi. I will feel more comfortable tomorrow." Zhang Jiajia hurriedly called Zhang Dong.

"Yes, why didn't I expect this? OK, Jiajia, you should be careful. If this kid has anything to do to you, tell me and I will teach him a lesson." Zhang Dong said, and gave Li Feng a wink.

Li Feng muttered, what are you saying? He and Jiajia have only met several times. They have known each other for a long time. It seems that they have done something bad. "Brother, thank you for Uncle Lian Cheng for helping me."

"You kid should thank Jiajia."

"Hehe, thank you." Li Feng turned his head and said to Zhang Jiajia with a smile.

Zhang Jiajia didn't seem to want Li Feng to thank him. "It's okay, let's go, let's burn the wood ash."

"plant ash?"

"yes."

Zhang Jiajia smiled again. "Mix the wood ash and black rice leaf juice, and filter it and the juice is ready."

It was simple to say, but it was not easy to make. It filtered the residue and left a dark juice. "This is somewhat similar to alkaline water cake."

"That's right."

Zhang Jiajia poured the rice into the black juice. "So you can steam it all night and tomorrow."

"It's finally done."

Li Feng let out a big mouthful and rubbed his sore arms. "Let's go, I'll take you to Uncle Lian Cheng's house. It's time to prepare for it."

"good."

Come to Uncle Lian Cheng and Zhang Dong’s father-in-law’s house, and the wooden barrel medicine soup is ready here. "Fengzi, go in quickly and soak for half an hour."
