Chapter 156

When she stayed at the second sister's house until more than ten o'clock, she felt that her father-in-law, mother-in-law and sister-in-law were coming back soon. Han Mingxiu got up and wanted to leave. Han Mingyu wanted to keep her here for lunch, but Han Mingxiu didn't agree. She didn't understand how snobbish her father-in-law, mother-in-law and sister-in-law were. She didn't want to be ignored.

Han Mingyu also knows why her sister doesn't agree. Thinking about the face of her mother-in-law's family, she no longer insists. She tells her sister to be careful on the way. If she rides slowly, she sends her sister out of the door.

Out of the second sister's house, it's not noon yet, and this little elder brother and aunt Gao must not have come back.

Han Mingxiu took the opportunity to go to the waste purchasing station, where he bought a few kilos of old books to pass the time for uncle Zhou and manager Cui's children. In addition, he bought two bags of bones to be processed into bone powder for feeding pigs.

The two pigs at home are getting bigger and bigger, and they can eat more and more. They have eaten up all the crab shells and scallops in her space. If they want to keep growing fat, they have to feed them some nutritious food, but it's not cost-effective to feed them, so she chose to buy bones.

The price of bone is cheap. It's only a cent a Jin. It's ground into powder and put in pig food. It can not only supplement calcium for pigs, but also enhance their immunity. The most important thing is that it can make pigs grow fat. It's much more cost-effective than feeding corn!

Out of the acquisition station, Han Mingxiu found a place where there was no one, put the two bags of bones into the space, and then left to go to the tall master's house.

When I got to Uncle Gao's house, she was serving rice on the table, stewed sorghum rice, dried bean curd, rolled green onion and egg sauce.

"Ha, Xiu, you're just in time. Today we'll improve our food. Let's eat together." Uncle Gao warmly invited Han Mingxiu to have lunch with them.

This is my wife's birthday. He went to the non-staple food store to buy two pieces of dried tofu and five eggs to celebrate my wife's birthday. This is already a very luxurious meal for them.

At the same time, Han Mingxiu didn't have lunch either. Seeing that the food on the table was suitable for her taste, she readily agreed. She washed her hands and sat down at the table without looking out. She said with a smile, "Oh, what's a good day today, and bought dried tofu and egg sauce?"

I've known uncle Gao and aunt Gao for more than half a year. She can't help but know what their life is like. They seldom eat dry rice, let alone buy the "luxury" of dried tofu and eggs. There must be something wrong with them!

Aunt Gao said with a smile, "it's not a big day. It's my birthday. Your uncle has to buy these things. You see, these things will damage your family by one yuan at a time. What a loser!"

Although she complained about her wife's failure, she had a happy smile on her face.

As a woman, the greatest happiness in life is that her husband always cares about and loves herself!

Although they are in a bad situation now, as long as there is a man who loves her and loves her, no matter how hard it is, she can endure it!

When Han Mingxiu heard that Aunt Gao was celebrating her birthday, he said with a smile, "Oh, my aunt is celebrating her birthday today. I don't know. I didn't bring you any good things, so I brought some green bud rice. Well, I'll just take this green bud rice as a birthday gift!"

Last time, uncle Gao said that he liked to eat green bud rice. She said that she would take it for them. Uncle Gao didn't agree to anything, for fear that she would spoil the food.

Han Mingxiu is thinking about how to let them accept the rice without any pressure. It happened that Aunt Gao had a birthday. That's just right. Let's leave more green rice for them.

Aunt Gao said, "Oh, you've done harm to the rice again. I told you that the rice can continue to grow. What a pity that you can break it off now? Why don't we wait until we're full of grain? "

Han Mingxiu said, "I've broken it all, and my back is coming. You can't let me carry it back again."

Because he often walks around, Han Mingxiu is very close to Uncle Gao and aunt Gao. When he hears her stubborn attitude, uncle Gao and aunt Gao know that they can't refuse, so they have to accept her qingbaomi!

This time, Han Mingxiu specially gave them more than 30 ears at a time. Aunt Gao was both happy and distressed. She was glad that they could get so much green rice all at once, but she was also distressed that Xiu had ruined the grain, which was extremely contradictory.

Uncle Gao is also very distressed for Han Mingxiu's grain, and says, "we can't eat these, just leave us ten ears and eight ears."

Han Mingxiu said, "if you can't eat it, you can cook it, hang it up, air dry it and put it away. When you put it in the pot in winter, it still tastes like tender bract rice. It's delicious. Otherwise, you can just wait for them to leave the pulp and turn into old bract rice. You can grind them into bract rice stubble or bract rice flour. On the contrary, you can't throw them away. I can easily carry such heavy things, but I don't want to carry them back."

The old couple accepted a lot of green rice from Han Mingxiu. They were so moved that Han Mingxiu left after eating and getting his new clothes.

This time, it was only a week since she came to the county town last time to distribute subsidized grain, so she didn't plan to go to other people's homes any more. She took a bath in the bath. After that, she put on the new clothes made by Aunt Gao and rode home.

**

When he got home, it was already more than three o'clock in the afternoon. Han Mingxiu went into the room to drink some water. After a short rest, he came to the back garden with an ax and took out the two bags of bones in the space, tinkling.

The bones are hard. It's really hard to smash them one by one. Before half of them, Han Mingxiu's arms were sore and he was sweating.

At this time, she couldn't help thinking of the words that Niu Niu's father said to her elder sister——

"Mr. Han, I work hard. If there's any hard work in your family, just come to me and I'll help you..."

The work of smashing bones is hard work. It would be great if I could ask him to help me with it!

Of course, she just thought about it casually, entertaining herself. She would not believe that she really wanted others to help her smash her bones. Her skin was not so thick.

In this way, she smashed for a while, rest for a while, rest for a while and then smash for a while, until the elder sister came back from work, the two bags of bones were smashed.

She swept up the broken bones and put them into a silk bag. She was going to grind the bones in the mill after dinner, and then grind some rice flour.

The quails at home are still small, and the bract rice particles are too big for them. It's not easy to digest after eating them, so it's most appropriate to give them bract rice flour mixed with wild vegetables.

Today, the quails in the family are familiar with the new home of qianyuanzi, and they are all raised one by one. Han Mingxiu has enough food, and the animals in the family are better than those in other families. Whether they are quails or chickens, ducks and geese, they all have bright hair.

In particular, the two pigs, just like blowing air, rubbed and rubbed for a long time, one day at a time, bigger than the pigs caught by other families at the same time.

Seeing that they all grow so well, Han Mingxiu is more energetic. After dinner, she pushes her car to grind the broken bones in the house to grind bone powder. After the bones in two silk bags are smashed, a single bag can be filled. It is estimated that grinding into powder can be filled in a half silk bag.

Located at the west end of the village, the mill is public. Anyone can go to mill it, but they have to push it by hand. Although there are animals in the production team, they don't give them to the members. Only when the production team is threshing grain can they pull it by animals. Ordinary members grind grain by themselves, because pushing and grinding requires a lot of effort, So most people's work of grinding grain is done by men. Han Mingxiu's family has no men, so she has to come by herself.

In order to push the mill, she ate more in the evening, but when she got to the mill, she found that no matter how much she ate, it was useless, because the bones were hard and hard to grind, and the stone mill was heavy, her little body couldn't push even with her sucking strength.

It's embarrassing.

She scattered the broken bones in the grinding trough. If she couldn't push them, she had to sweep them out bit by bit. It took a lot of trouble. The bones in the hole of the grinding plate couldn't be cleaned out. When the next family came to grind them, the bone powder would inevitably be mixed into other people's food, which would be a barrier to people!

Han Mingxiu is so anxious that he turns around and thinks about who to ask for help?

Now, Cheng Shun and his wife from the village are here.

They are also here to grind rice. When they see the broken bones scattered by Han Mingxiu in the grinding trough, Cheng Shun and his wife are stunned.

"Sister, what are you doing? Where are you fixing so many bones? " Cheng Shun's daughter-in-law looks at Han Mingxiu like caring for the mentally retarded.

Han Mingxiu Khan dada said, "this is what I bought in the city waste purchasing station. I thought about crushing the pig, but I didn't expect that the bone was too hard for me to crush."

Cheng Shun's daughter-in-law said, "this thing can also feed pigs?"

"Yes." Han Mingxiu explained, "pigs are omnivores. They eat everything and bones. In fact, bones are very nutritious. They contain a lot of calcium and protein, which can promote the growth of animal bones and enhance their immunity. The most important thing is that they grow fat after eating. It is a kind of feed that is more effective than grain."

Cheng Shun's daughter-in-law listened to what she said. She could not help believing, "is it really so useful? Who are you listening to? "

Han Mingxiu can't say that she knew these things in her last life, so she has to lie and say that she saw them in books.

Cheng Shun's daughter-in-law still believes in science and books. She said she saw it in books, so she said, "tut Tut, if it really works, we'll catch a pig to raise it. By the way, how much do you pay for this bone?"

Han Mingxiu said, "it's very cheap. It's only one cent and one jin. It's much cheaper than grain. It's just a little hard to smash and grind bones."

"It's really hard. It's hard for men to grind it. Don't say you're a little girl." Cheng Shun's daughter-in-law tells the truth.

Han Mingxiu pulled the corners of his mouth and said with a bitter smile, "I also thought that if I eat two more bowls of rice, I can push it. Who knows that the mill is so heavy that I can't move."

Cheng Shun's daughter-in-law chuckled, "you are really interesting. If you eat two more bowls of rice, you want to push and grind. What can you do? If you can grow so strong by eating two more bowls of rice, why do people raise animals? They all have to eat two bowls of rice and work by themselves. Why spend the old fodder to raise those animals? "

After that, he said to her man, "why don't you help Xiao Xiu grind this bone? She's a girl, and she can't do this job."

Although Cheng Shun was not happy, his daughter-in-law spoke, and he had to agree.

Han Mingxiu seldom gets in touch with the villagers and doesn't know Chengshun very well. Today, she is very grateful for her initiative in grinding her bones. After all, it's a labor-intensive job. It's not necessary to ask for help. If someone can help her, she must get the favor.

Cheng Shun is a tall, healthy and strong man. Despite Han Mingxiu's efforts, he can't even push the mill. But as soon as he is in someone's hands, the mill turns around.

With a small broom, Han Mingxiu sweeps up all the broken bones and dregs spilled on the outside and pours them back. He is reluctant to waste them.

With the help of Cheng Shun and his wife, her bag of bones is not easy to grind out.

As she expected, a bag of bone dregs turned into a half silk bag of bone powder.

After grinding the bone powder, Cheng Shun's daughter-in-law asked her man to help Han Mingxiu grind the rice particles in most of the silk bags into rice noodles.

It's not that they want to do a good job in the end, but that Cheng Shun's daughter-in-law feels a little frustrated after grinding the bone dregs in the grinding plate. She's afraid that the residual bone dregs will be mixed into their food, so she asked her man to help Han Mingxiu grind out the rice grains in her family.

In this way, after grinding most of Han Mingxiu's bag of rice particles, there is basically nothing left in the grinding plate, and the blending is all blended into her Han Mingxiu's rice, so she can grind her rice safely.

Han Mingxiu is such a smart man. Of course, he knows why Cheng Shun's daughter-in-law asked Cheng Shun to help her grind rice. Although they thought about it for themselves, they helped her after all, so she is very grateful to others.

After grinding the rice noodles, Han Mingxiu said, "brother Cheng Shun, sister-in-law, thank you very much today. Why don't I leave some bone powder for you to feed the animals? This thing can work. The animals have eaten the fat they rubbed..."

Cheng Shun's daughter-in-law just heard Han Mingxiu say that this bone meal contains both protein and calcium. When the animals get fat after eating it, they are a little moved. Just when they want to keep some, Cheng Shun says something.

"It's all living in a village. It's not a big deal to help you do some work. How can I ask for your things? It's so easy for you to come back from the county. Keep it for yourself."

Cheng Shun's daughter-in-law was embarrassed to ask for it when she heard her man say so, so she waved her hand and said, "no, it's not easy for you girl to live by yourself. Take it back quickly. By the way, can you take it alone? Do you want me to send you... "

"No, I came here by bike. Just carry it on my back..."

Seeing that the couple didn't want it, Han Mingxiu said thanks to them again and went home with grain and bone meal.

"Ah, shunzi, do you think that bone powder can really be so useful?" After Han Mingxiu left, Cheng Shun's daughter-in-law asked her about the man curiously.

Cheng Shun said, "I don't know. If you want to know what's going on, just go to their house and have a look."

"Yes, I'll go to her house and see her cattle. I'll know everything." As soon as Cheng Shun's daughter-in-law pats her thigh, she doesn't care if she's a man. With face on her body, she goes to Han Mingxiu's house.

Here, as soon as Han Mingxiu's front foot got home and put away his face and bone powder, Cheng Shun's daughter-in-law came after her.

"Hehe, Xiu, I want to see your pig, OK?"

To be honest, Han Mingxiu moved Cheng Shun's daughter-in-law a little by using bone meal to raise cattle. Now the price of rice has risen to eight cents a catty, and bone meal is only one cent a catty. If feeding bone meal can really catch up with feeding grain, it can save a lot of money!

"Yes, sister-in-law, come with me."

After helping her a lot, Han Mingxiu certainly won't refuse this small request. He immediately took Cheng Shun's daughter-in-law to the back garden to see her pig.

When she arrived at the back garden, Cheng Shun's daughter-in-law saw sweet potatoes, chickens, ducks and geese all over the garden. She could only see them from the gate of the garden. She couldn't see them from the outside wall, because sunflowers and sweet stalks were planted around the garden. These tall crops blocked the scene of the garden, and people outside couldn't see the inside.
