There is a bed under the gourd shed, which is not too big.
The bed is made of wood and covered with bamboo mats made of large strips of bamboo.
A pillow was placed on one end, and a thin quilt made of rough silk was placed on the other end.
This is where Han Cheng slept in Jinguan City.
On summer nights, if there is no rain, sleeping outside is the most comfortable.
It is exceptionally cool and not stuffy at all, allowing people to enjoy the coolness of summer nights.
Of course, there is a premise that no mosquitoes will harass you and allow you to have cordial communication.
Han Cheng is more afraid of mosquitoes.
If you are bitten by this thing, your body will be extremely itchy, and soon a pimple will appear.
It will take nearly two days for it to slowly dissipate.
This kind of feeling really makes people crazy sometimes.
But Han Cheng could sleep outside safely now, because he made a mosquito net out of rough linen woven by the tribe around his bed and put it there.
This mosquito net looks a bit crude, but it is still very good to use. At least it is very effective in preventing mosquitoes. As long as the opening is closed, you don't have to worry about being attacked by mosquitoes and other things when you sleep at night.
Han Cheng sat on the bed, took off his shoes, tucked the mosquito net in place, and lay down on the wooden bed.
The bamboo mats spread on the wooden bed are very cool and very comfortable against your body.
Lying on the bed and stretching for a long time, Han Cheng felt that his whole body was comfortable.
After a tiring day, the moment I lay on the bed, I felt so comfortable.
After lying on the bed for a while, Han Cheng reached out and pulled the thin quilt on the side, covered him, and looked up with his eyes open.
The faint moonlight fell from between the gourd leaves, leaving spots of white.
The breeze blew, and the leaves of the gourd swayed gently, and the few stars revealed from the gaps also became faintly visible.
In the distance, the sound of the night watch team beating gongs could be heard, mixed with the barking of some dogs.
These sounds seemed clear and distant in the night, as if they had been soaked by the cool night.
The gourd hanging down from the gourd shed slowly sways with the breeze, looking like a wind chime made of wood.
Gradually, everything in front of me became blurry, and the sounds from the distance became more distant...
While asleep, time passes quietly.
The big rooster in the tribe raised its head and crowed, and Han Chengzi, who was sleeping soundly, slowly woke up from his sleep.
There is light from the sky filtering through the gaps between the gourd leaves and gourds.
With some dark colors, the morning sky, the dusk and moonlit sky are generally quiet and charming.
Autumn is here, and there is more dew.
There are some tiny water droplets on the gourd leaves, making them look even greener.
The surrounding land also seems relatively moist.
However, it was very dry under the gourd shed and was not wet by dew.
This is because the dew that falls at night is blocked by the dense gourd leaves.
This is why Han Cheng placed a bed under the gourd shed and slept under it.
Not only can you enjoy the coolness under it during the day, but you can also sleep under it at night. It can also effectively block dew from getting your bed and head wet...
As the weather gets brighter, the Jinguan City of the Qingque Tribe becomes busier and busier.
The main labor force in the tribe did not eat, so he took the sickle he sharpened before going to bed last night, went to the ground, and continued to harvest rice...
Time is passing. As time goes by, pieces of rice are cut and transported to the threshing floor under the hard work of everyone in the Qingque tribe.
Here in the threshing floor, a whole field of rice is dried to dry.
The very hot sun in autumn and the wind that blows from time to time quickly take away the moisture on the rice.
In the afternoon, some people with experience in the field, according to Han Cheng's previous arrangements, put the cattle on the stone roller, tied the back of the stone roller with a rope also made of stone, and began to grind the field here.
.
Driven by the field workers, the large oxen pulled the stone roller and the stone roller behind it, spinning in circles on the paved rice.
Go round and round, trying not to miss a single place.
As the stone roller rotates and the stone roller slides past, plump rice grains fall from it one after another.
Because there are rice straws laid on it, it can relieve a certain amount of pressure. In addition, the threshing floor is also a soil surface, which can effectively protect the rice grains from being crushed by stone rollers and stone hoists.
The stone rollers were made with hammers and chisels by some people with stonemasonry skills who came to Jinguan City after they came here.
These stone rollers are much larger than those in the Qingque Lord tribe and the Tongshan residential area.
This is because the main force for pulling stone rollers in the main tribe is donkeys and deer.
Here in Jinguan City, there are a large number of cattle obtained from the red tiger tribe and the hunchback primitive people for driving.
It's just like "adults eat big steamed buns, and children eat small steamed buns." It's the same principle. Strong animals can also pull big rocks and rolls.
With the addition of big stone rolling, big hoops, and stronger oxen, the efficiency of the grinding field will naturally be much higher.
When the sun is still about half way above the ground, the field has been set.
Some people who were busy at the scene first used wooden forks to pick up the rice poles that had been flattened by stone rollers and pile them up.
Later, I used wooden rake and other tools to remove some remaining longer rice stalks.
Then we started to use a wooden shovel, a big broom, and an overturned rake to 'close the field'.
The so-called gathering field refers to mixing the fruits crushed by stone rollers and fruit shells, spreading them on the threshing floor, and gathering them together.
After closing the market, the next step is to expand the market.
Today is not bad, there is a slight breeze, it is just a good opportunity to take advantage of the situation.
Through the winnowing field, the rice and rice bran mixed together are separated with the help of wind.
The remaining dirty millet that is not easy to clean up can be cleaned up with dustpans and bamboo sieves.
The people on the threshing floor were tidying up here, and Han Cheng, who put down his sickle, walked over from the paddy field.
"Pull out more of the rice harvested today and pound it into rice. Wait until evening to steam the rice and make it dry!"
Han Cheng came over and looked at the rice collected by these people for a while, and then said to the people in the tribe with a smile.
"Wait a minute and let people catch more fish from the rice fields.
In the evening, make fish soup and pour the fish soup over rice and eat it! "
After swallowing a mouthful of saliva, Han Cheng opened his mouth again and added to the crowd.
After hearing what Han Cheng said, the people here suddenly became excited.
Only a small number of those who came early have tasted the delicious taste of dry rice. It is really an enjoyable delicacy.
The large number of people who came later had never eaten dry rice.
However, just because they haven't eaten it doesn't mean they don't know the delicious taste of dried rice.
Because there are often people who have eaten it, who can't help but tell them about the deliciousness of dried rice when they are taking care of the rice or seeing the rice.
Over time, these people in the tribe basically knew that rice was grown in the fields.
Rice is a very delicious food, especially when it is made into something called 'dried rice', it tastes even better.
That's why I became so excited after hearing Han Cheng say this.
Seeing them happy, Han Cheng was equally happy. He didn't take advantage of the people in the tribe not paying attention and swallowed a mouthful of saliva without leaving a trace.
In later generations, although he was a northerner, he still ate rice.
Dried rice rice and rice tea are the two most commonly eaten foods made from rice.
Especially when there are no flour products such as steamed buns and noodles, rice will naturally become his staple food.
Although the tribe also got rice before, Han Cheng was not willing to eat it because he had to keep more for planting, so now he also wanted to eat a meal of dried rice.
He told the people in the tribe that it was a lie to celebrate and reward him. The most important thing was that he was greedy.
After arranging for people to pound the newly harvested rice, Han Cheng immediately returned to the rice fields and called on the half-grown children in the tribe to catch fish in the harvested rice fields.
Compared with helping to harvest rice, what the children in the tribe like to do most is actually catching fish in the rice fields.
In the past, because I had serious work to do, I could only find time to catch fish for a while, and I had to worry about being blamed by the adults in the tribe, which was not satisfying at all.
However, it was different when the Son of God came to call. This matter that had to be carried out secretly before immediately became upright, and you could catch it as much as you wanted without worrying about who would come over to blame you and others!
Because of this, after receiving Han Cheng's greeting, the children around him suddenly became very happy.
They shouted excitedly and ran towards the harvested rice fields. Then, like a group of ducks that had just seen water, they plopped into the rice fields and started fishing.
The water in the rice fields is very shallow because it was drained a lot in the past.
There are a lot of fish in it, so it’s not too difficult to catch them.
After a short while, someone has already gained something.
Seeing these children excitedly walking to the shore with fish in their hands, Han Cheng couldn't help but smile.
If he hadn't been older, he would definitely have participated in this event!
People from the Qingque tribe, who were harvesting rice in other rice fields nearby, would turn their heads and straighten their backs from time to time, looking this way with smiles on their faces.
After watching for a while, he would bend down again and continue to harvest the rice, even more vigorously than before.
Han Cheng also called some people who often clean up fish. They squatted by the canal and directly cleaned up the fish caught by the children in the tribe.
After cleaning the basin, he and another person carried the fish directly back to the tribe.
Today he will cook by himself!
After returning to the tribe, the fish were washed with water and then chopped into pieces one by one with a knife.
Put some wine, sprinkle some salt inside, grab some peppercorn shells, rub them vigorously with your hands, and sprinkle them on top.
Then I put some vinegar in it, stirred it, and marinated it.
It's impossible without marinating.
First, pickling can remove the fishy smell.
Secondly, if the fish is marinated before eating, it will be more chewy.
After the batches of fish were processed, someone came over carrying a large jar of pounded rice.
Han Cheng personally showed them how to wash rice.
The whitened rice water was not wasted, and Han Cheng poured it directly into the vat.
Rice water is a good thing. It has a very good decontamination effect. Whether it is used to wash dishes or wash hair, the effect is very good.
Especially for washing hair, the hair after washing feels much more comfortable than the soap from the tribe!
After washing the new rice, Han Chenggong put it into a clay pot, added water, covered it, and started steaming it.
After he took care of these, someone came back carrying a basin of prepared fish.
Han Cheng did not do it himself this time, but asked the people who often cooked in the kitchen who had seen him demonstrate before to handle it according to his method.
And he started to make fish soup using the fish that had been pickled for a while.
Someone cooked the pot, so Han Cheng didn't need to worry about it.
After ordering someone to cook the pot, he dug out a piece of ginger from the sand pile in the corner of the kitchen.
This ginger is the one I got when I went to the Red Tiger Tribe before.
After returning, most of Han Chengdu was buried in the vegetable garden next to the tribe.
A small portion was left in the kitchen, covered with sand, for daily consumption.
At the critical moment of cooking fish, he would certainly not forget ginger, a good thing to remove fishy smell and improve flavor.
Cut the washed ginger into large slices, and the large clay pot has been heated.
Use a spoon to scoop out some animal fat oil from the oil can on the side and put it in it. After a while, the oil will be heated.
Han Cheng first put the ginger slices inside, fried them briefly with oil, and then poured the marinated fish fillets into the pot.
When the hot oil meets the fish pieces with some water in them, they will make a "stinging" sound and white smoke will rise at the same time.
However, because the tribe still uses earthenware pots, and the thermal conductivity of earthenware pots is slow, only this initial movement made a big noise.
It won't be possible after that.
After frying the fish for a while, Han Cheng used a ladle to scoop up the water from the well, added it to the pottery pot, and then covered it with a lid to cook.
After doing this, he went outside to the vegetable garden, pulled out a lot of green onions, peeled them, washed them, and cut them into chopped green onions for later use...
