Chapter 269 Guancheng Recognition 1

The family had a delicious meal of scallion pancakes with the white flour they had made before.

Coarse grains make your throat hurt, and you have to hold your neck to swallow them, which hurts your throat. However, scallion pancakes made with white flour and lard will not have this problem.

Not to mention the children, Feng Qingxue herself likes to eat fine grains.

There were 300 kilograms of wheat at home. With the help of Lu Tianjun and Guan Cheng, Feng Qingxue washed 100 kilograms of wheat and picked out the wheat awns, wheat pulp, and earth clods mixed in the wheat. Although there were very few impurities in it, there were some, because it was dried in the soil field. After washing it three or four times, only clean and full wheat grains were left, which were dried until 70% to 80% dry.

Then, Feng Qingxue dealt with the impurities of more than 200 kilograms of corn. There were also impurities such as corn silk and corn hair in the corn kernels. The corn did not need to be washed, but Feng Qingxue still wiped it carefully with a clean wet cloth.

Then, borrowing the mule cart of the brigade, Feng Qingxue and Lu Tianjun Guan Cheng transported the wheat, corn and 100 kilograms of rice to the mill in the city.

Wanglou Brigade has several stone mills and tools for pounding rice, but Feng Qingxue doesn't like to use them.

The first is that it's tiring. It's all done by manpower. The millstone is big and heavy. Feng Qingxue really doesn't have the strength to push it around and around, but she can't separate the flour and bran. In the end, the flour comes out, which is very coarse, and the cornmeal is also coarse. Pounding rice is also all done by manpower. Many of the rice grains pounded out are broken, and they are brown rice.

The mill is different. The mill is equipped with an electric mill equipped by the state, and you can freely choose the finished product you want.

Because it was just after the autumn harvest, the farmers had grain in their hands, and there were relatives in the city and the countryside who could get some new grain. There were always people who needed rice and flour, so there were many people waiting to grind flour and pound rice in front of the mill. There was a long queue, some pushing unicycles, some pushing bicycles, or carrying shoulder poles, waiting in line and resting at the same time.

Feng Qingxue looked at the sky, then at the long line in front of her. While getting the prepared backpack, she said to Guan Cheng and Lu Tianjun: "You stay here to look after our mule cart and food. I'm going to my friend's house to get some hot water and give them some corn. They helped me before."

Lu Tianjun thought she was talking about the family that gave her food to help her when she was begging. He had no objection to her giving them 30 kilograms of corn. Father Lu had already handed over the family to Feng Qingxue, and he would not say a word.

"Aunt, I'll accompany you." Guan Cheng jumped off the car immediately.

After saying that, he put the backpack on his shoulder.

In the Lu family, he ate well, dressed well, and had sufficient nutrition. In just half a year, he grew half a head taller and was very strong when working. Thirty kilograms of corn was not difficult for him at all, and he acted very easily.

Feng Qingxue thought for a moment, "Okay, you go with me, Tianjun, you wait here, we'll be here soon."

"Got it, auntie!"

Uncle Xu was not at home, but Auntie Xu was. Unexpectedly, she did not look at the food Feng Qingxue sent, and her eyes were only on Guan Cheng.

Feng Qingxue felt very strange, "Auntie Xu, what's wrong with you?"

Guan Cheng also looked back at the old woman in front of him inexplicably, because he didn't know her at all.

Auntie Xu trembled and said, "You... Is your surname Guan? Guan Gong's Guan."

Feng Qingxue and Guan Cheng were stunned at the same time, and the former blurted out, "Auntie Xu, do you know my Guan Cheng? His surname is Guan. Yes, Auntie, your surname is also Guan, are you the same Guan?" Later, Feng Qingxue remembered Auntie Xu's surname, but she usually called her Auntie Xu, so she didn't remember it for a while.
