One hundred and thirty seventh chapter strange interest(1/2)

When the young couple heard Liang Hongyu's voice, they walked outside the hospital. When they got outside, they discovered that the elders had asked their son to deliver it today, but only Liang Yuemin was there, not his daughter-in-law and grandson.

Since this was not the first time he met Chen Ling, Liang Yuemin didn't recognize him. When he saw Chen Ling and Wang Susu coming out, he greeted Chen Ling and Wang Susu warmly, stood at the door and chatted for a few words, and then started carrying big and small boxes with Liang Hongyu.

thing.

"Uncle, aunt, we don't lack anything at home, why do we need so many things? It's not the first time we've come here."

"Haha, my dad and mom are regular customers. Isn't this the first time I've come to my house? How can I come to the house empty-handed!"

"I heard from my parents that there is not much rice growing here, so I brought some rice over. The two of us will move down later."

Liang Yuemin nodded at the rice piled behind the car and smiled.

Chen Ling looked at it and found that there were indeed quite a few. He sighed inwardly, but he couldn't be polite anymore, otherwise it would look too awkward.

So he asked the three of them to go home: "Let's go home first. It's almost time for dinner. Let's eat first. I'm about to go to the reservoir to catch two fish."

Liang Hongyu hurriedly stopped him: "No, we ate it when we came here, so we were afraid that you would bother us again."

"Look, Auntie, what you said is right. If you come to my house, shouldn't you have a meal? How can you call it a torment?"

Chen Ling frowned slightly when he heard this.

Not to mention that the two elders always come here empty-handed, and they are very good-tempered and get along well with each other. If they are polite, it will make him feel a little uncomfortable.

Liang Hongyu immediately became happy when she saw this: "Susu, look at him, he's not happy anymore."

"I really don't mean anything else. Your uncle and I just came back from the city, and we had already eaten on the way. We were originally going to the countryside, and we were passing by you. We just happened to bring some Vietnamese people to recognize us."

Then while walking into the yard, he started talking about the past few days.

It turns out that Liu Yinhuan's father injured his waist and was hospitalized in the city.

It was not serious at first, but unfortunately, the township health center treated someone to death and has not opened its doors for a while, which delayed the treatment. After a few days of hard work, I couldn't hold on anymore and couldn't get out of bed.

It was Liang Hongyu and Qin Rong who sent someone to the city hospital first.

Liang Yuemin and his wife are both busy with work. Logically speaking, they cannot come back this year, because they have to rush back after such a thing.

"No wonder Susu and I locked up our house last time we went to the city! How is Uncle Liu doing there? Is the situation better?"

"I'm almost healed. In fact, it's not a big deal. It's just that I didn't get treatment in time and caught a cold at night. I don't even need surgery. I just take medicine and I'll be fine in half a year."

"That's fine. You have to be more careful as you get older."

"Who said it wasn't true? Huanhuan was also shocked. He quit his job just as he was about to go back. It took a lot of effort to ask for leave every year, and he was still busy at the end of the year. He couldn't go back to his hometown for several years. Just like this

If this happens again, if something goes wrong, where will you regret it?"

"Hongyu, why are you telling your child this..."

"Okay, let's not talk about this anymore. You and Susu can eat quickly, we will lead the Yue people around, don't worry about us."

Liang Hongyu smiled and waved her hands.

"It's okay, we're not in a hurry to eat."

Chen Ling made tea and went to Susu to wash the fruits he had left at home and bring them over.

As a result, everything was ready here. Before even saying a few words after sitting together, Qin Rongxian led Liang Yuemin to the millstone and looked around with interest.

"Fugui, are you going to grind flour at home? I think the wheat is already drying up."

"Yeah, I'm almost out of white flour at home, so I'm going to grind some more."

"Hahaha, that's just right. I haven't touched this thing in many years. Let us two try it out later and grind it out for a while."

"Okay."

Chen Ling responded, but he didn't think much of them.

This stone mill is not small. The grinding disc is about 80 centimeters in diameter and more than 30 centimeters thick. The base is even larger, with at least a 120 to 30 centimeters and a 15 centimeter thick head.

, the father and son are not the kind of people who can do strenuous work, and it would be quite difficult for both of them to guess and touch together.

However, the father and son were in high spirits and obviously did not expect this.

Seeing this, Liang Hongyu also came over. The whole family gathered together to watch the millstone and watch the rabbits. After watching the rabbits, they went to watch the pigeons. Especially Liang Yuemin, everything he saw was new and he couldn't get enough.

"This kind of life is great, it's exactly what I yearn for."

Liang Yuemin stood in front of the rabbit nest and praised him repeatedly. He had the spirit of a literary young man in his heart.

Soon his face was filled with anticipation and admiration.

"Huanhuan is about to quit his job at the TV station. Next year, I will open a branch in the city. I will also build a small yard, plant some land, and raise some things..."

"I also enjoy the life of picking chrysanthemums under the eastern fence and leisurely seeing the southern mountains."



Chen Ling and Wang Susu looked at each other and saw the smile in each other's eyes.

When guests came to the door, Chen Ling didn't want to go out to catch fish anymore, so he simply fried some green vegetables and had a bite with rice.

As for Liang Yuemin, apparently after Liang Hongyu and Qin Rongxian's instructions, he simply regarded it as his first meeting with Chen Ling. He didn't mention anything about Chen Ling's affairs in the countryside, and just walked back and forth in front of the pigeons, quails and rabbits in the yard.

Wander.

Soon, Chen Ling had finished eating, and followed Liang Yuemin's cart to move the rice to the yard, and then began to prepare the flour.

After an afternoon's work, the wheat on the mat had been dried in the sun. Originally, Chen Ling wanted to use a small white cow to grind it. Since Qin Rongxian and Liang Yuemin both wanted to get started, they decided to try grinding it first.

Chen Ling and Wang Susu prepared the dustpan, dustpan, sieve, dustpan and broom.

Then the pole was tied to the two prongs of the millstone and fixed, and Wang Susu loaded a dustpan with dried wheat.

"Are you ready? Can you push?"

Liang Yuemin couldn't wait any longer, rubbing his hands with a look of eagerness.

People in their thirties are like children, watching eagerly, just waiting to be pushed around.

When Liang Hongyu saw this, she glared at him: "Why are you so anxious? Wait until Fugui takes care of things."

You cannot pour the grain directly into the flour. Before grinding, you need to spread the bottom, that is, pry open the upper millstone and sprinkle two handfuls of grain into the middle.

The reason for this is to prevent the upper and lower plates of the stone mill from being idle when grinding begins.

Then there is the matter of putting grain and grinding.

Put the wheat on the millstone, and the wheat will follow the grinding holes of the upper plate and be sent between the two plates. Then, the bottom has been spread out, and the millstone will rotate. The wheat will be ground between the two millstones. The ground wheat

It flows along the lower plate to the large chassis.

Then sift the particles on the grinding disc and put them on the top of the grinding mill. Repeat it over and over again. You need to do it slowly. One hundred or ten kilograms of wheat cannot be ground completely in one hour (4 hours).

"Okay, brother Yuemin, come and push the mill."

Chen Ling pried open the millstone, asked his wife to spread the bottom, sprinkled wheat on the millstone, and said to Liang Yuemin.

"Okay, okay, let me try."

Liang Yuemin rolled up his sleeves, held the big wooden pole, and gave Qin Rong a toothy smile: "Dad, I came first."

Then he started grinding hard.

As soon as he started exerting force, Liang Yuemin's expression changed.

He pushed with all his strength, but the big millstone barely moved.

"Fugui, look at it, why doesn't it move?"

Before Chen Ling could say anything, Qin Rong couldn't help but said: "This stone mill is too big and heavy. I will push it with you."

After saying that, he also stepped forward, and the father and son held the big wooden pole together.

result……

Still not ideal.

"This millstone is so heavy."

Liang Yuemin gritted his teeth, kicked on the ground and pushed with all his strength, but the millstone was only turning very slowly.

After two rounds of pushing, I couldn't hold on any longer. I looked like I was exhausted. I stood there holding my waist and gasping for air.

At this moment, I was already sweating profusely.

Qin Rongxian was not much better, he smiled bitterly at Chen Ling and waved his hand.

There is no way, people who often don't do hard work can't push the grinder.

"How about I add another bar? Brother Yuemin, you go to the outer circle, and Uncle Qin, you go to the inner circle. Otherwise, one bar won't be enough."

Chen Ling said.

"Don't bother. This thing is too heavy. It's completely different from what I imagined."

Liang Yuemin wiped his sweat: "I actually want to push for a while, but I still have to drive. I'm worried that I'll lose strength and won't be able to hold the steering wheel later."

"Fugui, will your family still grind noodles in the future? I will bring Huanhuan and Xiao Ming over in two days and come to your house to play for two days. Can we grind them again then?"

"Are you still addicted?"
