Chapter 458 458 Sorghum and Sweet Stalks
Chapter 458 458. Sorghum and sweet stalks
Guo Dong was unwilling to accept it.
"I know you didn't feel my medical skills, so you didn't believe it, right?"
Song Tan: ...
No.
She thought expressionlessly: It's totally unnecessary.
How much wine can be produced by growing so little sorghum?
Even so, her grandfather has even divided it into sauce-flavored and strong-flavored wines... How can he have time to mess around with medicinal wines?
What's more, the role of medicinal wine is nothing more than health care. They can achieve this effect after staying at home for a long time.
Guo Dong sighed when she didn't speak.
But she didn't give up, and still kept the bottle of medicine:
"Don't refuse yet! You don't have a partner yet, how can you understand men as well as I do?"
She winked: "Wait until they come back and ask... There's no harm in giving it a try, right? This is a serious medicine for conditioning the body, not the kind of medicine in novels that makes you feel horny once you take it..."
Song Tan: ...
She had no choice but to reach out and take the can of wax pills.
But Guo Dong asked again: "I heard that your grandfather is weaving straw mats, how much is one? I'll buy one first."
Her air conditioner was shipped back, but the installation was delayed because of the rain, and the appointment was full today, so it has to be scheduled until the day after tomorrow...It was so hot that she didn't even buy a fan, and it was really hot at night.
Luckily, the houses in the countryside are tall and big, ventilated and cool. Now it's early July, it's not as hard as in the city, just two days, I can hold on.
But the straw mat is not a waste, there are still several months of summer.
Song Tan had no objection, and took her to see the straw mat he had just brought: "It's tentatively 999 per bed, and if you want, we can also provide free shipping."
Guo Dong: ...
Now it was her turn to quickly withdraw her hand: "Thank you. I don't deserve it." She should borrow a fan first.
...
In the fields at the foot of the mountain, Qiao Qiao has started live broadcasting again.
"Children, today Teacher Qiao Qiao will teach you how to cut sorghum."
"Two mu of sorghum is planted here. Grandpa said it's ripe and can be cut down to make wine."
"It rained here a few days ago. We shouldn't have cut sorghum today, but the sun is very good here and the wind is strong. Now there is no water."
After he finished speaking, he stretched out his hand and shook the sorghum stalks, and there were indeed no water drops.
[Wow! There are more and more skills on the resume]
[In the previous, the theory was learned, but where did you practice it in practice? ]
[Sorghum rice water rice! This diabetic's favorite! ]
[Sorghum noodles stir-fried !!! 】
Zhang Yanping just opened his phone to observe the live broadcast room, and saw that everyone's comments were all about food, which made him look up:
"Is sorghum rice water delicious?"
Xin Jun thought for a while: "It's okay - it's definitely not as delicious as rice, but you can try it."
He was eager to try: "I heard that sorghum stalks are very sweet, I'm going to try it later!"
"Really? Then I have to try it too." Zhang Yanping was also excited - isn't this like chewing sugarcane? How beautiful it is to eat such sweet things in July!
His eyes wandered over the row of sorghum in front of him, and decided to find the most beautiful one later.
The two adults were dawdling in the back, but Qiao Qiao was working very hard.
At this moment, he stretched out his hand and grabbed the heavy sorghum ears, and then selected the sickle about 30 centimeters below the sorghum ears and pulled it down -
The heavy, red and dense sorghum ears were already in his hand.
"Did you see it, kids? It's very simple. Just reach out and cut it with a sickle."
Comment: ...
[The host thinks highly of me. I'm not that tall. ]
[This sorghum must be more than two meters tall, right? Isn't there a kind of dwarf sorghum now? Why not plant it? ]
[This seems to be Northeast glutinous sorghum... good for making wine! ]
As he was talking, he saw Qiao Qiao had already aimed at the next one:
"However, today we have to collect all the sorghum stalks, so today we won't cut from the beginning, but from the root."
As he said, he held the sorghum stalk in his left hand and used the sickle in his right hand to exert great force--
Swish!
The whole sorghum fell down directly.
Zhang Yanping and Xin Jun heard the noise and looked out--
God-given sorghum stalks!
The two excitedly raised their knives and neatly cut off the sorghum ears with a section of the stalks from behind.
Xin Jun calmly put on gloves, broke off all the leaves, and threw them into the basket beside him.
Sorghum leaves can be fed to fish, crushed to feed chickens and ducks, and also to pigs.
And sorghum stalks can be eaten as sugar cane - of course, they are definitely not as sweet, and they can also be used to feed pigs.
Tsk, it seems strange when you think about it this way...
The two of them chose the middle part, and after a few cuts, each of them had two sections of sorghum stalks.
That is...
Xin Jun looked at the sorghum stalk in his hand, and always felt that something was wrong. And Zhang Yanping had tilted his head and started to chew it -
Chew sorghum stalks are like chewing sugar cane, first chew off the skin, then chew it -
Hey, why is it not sweet?
He turned his head and looked at Xin Jun.
Xin Jun thought for a while: "I also ate it when I was a child, maybe my memory has a filter - so you chew off the skin first, and then eat the core inside. After all, it is sorghum, and it is definitely not as sweet as sugar cane, it is probably just slightly sweet."
Zhang Yanping thought for a while: It makes sense.
He then gnawed and pulled until all that was left of the sorghum stalk was a thin section of milky white core. Then he took a bite and chewed again...
Soon, they were spit out like dregs.
"Your childhood filter is too outrageous. How can it have any sweetness? It doesn't even have much moisture."
Xin Jun stared at him for a while: "Well, since it's not sweet, I won't eat it."
Zhang Yanping:......
He looked at the remaining sorghum stalk in his hand, and then at the one that Xin Jun casually threw into the basket. He always felt that something was not right.
But he didn't think about it. He turned around and stared at the sorghum stalk again, wondering: Could it be that he didn't chew the middle part?
By this time, Qiao Qiao had already chopped down many sorghum stalks. When he saw Zhang Yanping squatting on the ground, he couldn't help but wonder:
"Brother Yanping, why do you want to eat this? This non-sweet one belongs to Xiaozhu, so don't eat it randomly."
Then he pointed to a few sorghum trees in the corner that were thick and tall, about three or four meters tall:
"That's the sweet pole."
Zhang Yanping:...? ! !
The next moment, I saw Xin Jun walking over with a sickle in hand: "Okay! Qiao Qiao knows so much! I heard that you have also planted sorghum, and today the teacher is here to taste the fruits of your labor!"
"Yeah!" Qiao Qiao was really energetic: "Teacher, please eat slowly! Grandpa said these are specially reserved sweet stalk seeds, which are sweeter than sugar cane."
Turning to look at Zhang Yanping, who had a unique taste, Qiao Qiao sighed heavily:
"Brother Yanping! Don't eat it! This is really for pigs... Come on, let's chop the sorghum together. Grandpa said to dry it early. When the sorghum is harvested, he can still find time to make braids with the sorghum ears. Where’s the broom?”
Yesterday's leave application chapter added some content. If you didn't see it, you can check it out.
Sorghum stalk, we call it Tianxuxu here (that’s the pronunciation anyway, it’s also called sweet stalk.)
good night.
