Chapter 181 I know where it is
Ma Tianzao's sleeves were bent high, her hands were stained with chicken feathers and water, and she was about to reach out to pick up something.

Lu Miao leaned to the side, "I'll put it on the small table first, and you can pick it up when you're done. Your hands are full of water now, so as not to make the notebook smelly."

"Hey!"

Ma Tianzao nodded honestly and squatted back to work.

Lu Miao stood behind the kitchen and stared at her for a while, and finally looked away. He went to the hut and brought out a piece of ginger and some red dates.

Fu Jingyou picked up some dried mushrooms in autumn a while ago, and she also grabbed some.

What do you say about Ma Tianzao?

Except for being a bit annoying when they started arguing and finding faults, she is actually quite a nice person when we get along with her these days.

Now that a "master-disciple" relationship has been established, he seems to be more honest.

She was well behaved, obedient, and had a job in hand.

I did whatever I was asked to do, and my attitude was very correct.

This also made Lu Miao couldn't help but think carefully about where she should start teaching Ma Tianzao.

And apart from this, there is something more important right now.

Lu Miao asked Ma Tianzao: "The captain asked me to select someone to teach composting. I don't know many people in the team. Do you have any suggestions?"

After thinking for a while, Lu Miao promptly added:
"We don't want gossips or dishonest people. We'll give priority to lesbians."

Ma Tianzao opened her mouth, "You don't want to talk nonsense, but you still want to choose from lesbians?"

Isn't this embarrassing?
Is there any woman who doesn't talk nonsense?
Lu Miao nodded and continued to narrow down the scope:

"It's best to be younger. If there are disadvantaged groups, give priority to those from the disadvantaged groups."

Although times are not easy, men have an inherent advantage over women when it comes to earning work points.

Women are weaker than men in size and physical strength. Like some disadvantaged groups, they may be even more so.

Composting has only become a hot topic for a while. As one of the first people to learn it, you can definitely get more work points.

In the later stage, when everyone in the team becomes proficient, the work points earned will be greatly reduced.

Lu Miao wanted to take advantage of the current situation and give priority to helping the disadvantaged female groups in the team.

As those aunts said before, if you get more work points now, you will get an extra ration of food next year.

Moreover, this type of people, depending on their living environment, may be relatively more honest and better disciplined.

Don't tell me, Ma Tianzao didn't have a clue at first.

Lu Miao really thought of several characters as she narrowed the area with each stroke.

"He Er's natal family is one of them. Uncle He Er crossed the river and drowned two years ago. In addition to her and her four-year-old son Guabao, her family only has a lame mother-in-law."

Ma Tianzao thought for a while and felt that no matter which one of He Er's parents' family, it seemed to be in line with what Lu Miao said, so he continued:
"Maybe life is hard, people don't talk much, and they are quite honest."

Lu Miao nodded.

Ma Tianzao thought about it, and then reported a few more names one after another, and briefly stated what she knew about the situation so that Lu Miao could make up her own mind.

Lu Miao took a notebook and wrote down the names of the people one by one. She planned to wait for Fu Jingyou to come back in the evening and ask Fu Jingyou to take her to visit with her to ask questions.

Ma Tianzao quickly finished plucking the chicken feathers, and Lu Miao gave her a big bowl:
"Don't throw away the chicken feathers, just throw them in a bowl. You can use them later in the compost pile."

Ma Tianzao followed the instructions and asked:

"Can chicken feathers be composted? Can it rot?"

"Why can't it suck?"

"In the past, the team killed chickens, and the feathers were still there in the ditch for months."

"Can it be the same? If it doesn't meet the decomposition conditions, of course it won't rot."

Seeing how Lu Miao disliked the chicken, Ma Tianzao felt that she didn't look like a master who could disembowel the chicken, so he asked her for a kitchen knife and chopsticks.Ma Tianzao squatted by the well in the backyard, obediently disembowelled the chicken and chopped it into small pieces. She used chopsticks to clean the chicken intestines.

Not to mention chicken gizzards.

"I always hear you talk about decomposition and decomposition. What exactly does decomposition mean?"

Ma Tianzao asked.

Lu Miao guessed that she would ask about organisms and microorganisms later.

Thinking that she didn't understand the professional vocabulary, I summarized the language and gave her a few rough and easy-to-understand examples:

"Humans are also living things. For example, if you pick a twenty-pound pumpkin at home and leave it in a corner and let it rot slowly, will it take a long time?"

Ma Tianzao nodded.

Lu Miao added: "Then if you cut it and fry it and eat it every day, won't it be consumed very quickly?"

"..."

Ma Tianzao seemed to understand a little bit. He paused for a while and drew inferences from one example to another and said:
"How many more people will fry a big plate every time, and the consumption will be faster?"

"Humans are living things, and ants are also living things, each smaller than the other..."

Lu Miao nodded.

"Microorganisms mean tiny organisms, the kind that most people can't see with the naked eye."

"They break down the compost pile, so you can think of them as people eating melons, and the microbial community corresponds to a large group of people eating melons."

"……Oh!"

Ma Tianzao nodded thoughtfully, trying to digest Lu Miao's words.

After she cut the whole old hen into pieces and rinsed it, Lu Miao had all the green onion and ginger ingredients ready.

Lu Miao asked Ma Tianzao to light the fire. She blanched the chicken, took out the pot-belly soup can and put it on the stove to stew.

During this period, Ma Tianzao also asked many questions.

For example, why does the chicken need to be blanched? The surface of the water is full of oil, and it is a pity to pour it over.

For another example, I was shocked that red dates can be added to the stewed chicken.

Lu Miao explained to her carefully that blanching the chicken was to remove impurities and blood from the chicken.

To prevent the fishy smell of chicken, it also explains that red dates nourish blood. Not only can you add a few pills when making soup, but you can also eat them as snacks in daily life to nourish your body.

Ma Tianzao had no objection to Lu Miao Hongzao's statement, but she felt a pity for the water that had been poured out after the fried chicken was filled with oil.

"Next time, don't pour the water used to kill the chicken. People can't eat it, but pigs can. You can use it to feed the pigs in the team."

Such good oil flowers... humans can't eat them, but pigs can eat them!

It will definitely gain weight.

Lu Miao shook her head and said nothing.

She put the lid on the soup can, and Ma Tianzao wandered around the backyard curiously.

Seeing that there were several soft-shelled turtles in the big tank under the eaves, Ma Tianzao's eyes widened and she became even more puzzled. She raised her voice and asked Lu Miao in the room:
"Why are you still raising a bastard? The bite of this thing hurts! Once it bites the head, it won't let go until it's chopped off. It must thunder!"

"Then don't get too close. If it bites you later, I might not be able to do it."

Lu Miao had never been bitten before, but she was scared after hearing what she said.

Let the sweet dates recede a little.

Fu Jingyou explained before that Lu Miao knew that no one was eating turtle at the moment, so she explained to Ma Tianzao:

“Soft-shell turtle is a nutritious food, and it’s delicious when it’s cooked.”
