After rebirth, the Queen and I are on the run.

Chapter 033 Arrowroot
"Second Aunt, let go. I won't go. I bought everything and you want to return it? I won't do such an embarrassing thing!" Huang Guilu struggled.

clap clap!

Huang Lao's second daughter-in-law slapped him twice and said with scarlet eyes: "If you dare not go, I will kill you here!"

Her whole family acted as knives for the eldest and his wife, offending so many people, and her mother-in-law was killed on the road, but the eldest daughter-in-law dared to delay her son like this. If she tolerated it any longer, she would not be a human being.

Huang Guilu was afraid and did not dare to struggle anymore. He could only follow Huang Lao's second daughter-in-law to the meat pie stall. After a scene, the stall owner was afraid and returned the money: "Eighteen cents, all of it will be returned to you. Hurry up." roll!"

The townspeople who were watching the excitement were so angry that they spat and cursed: "If you can't afford it, don't eat it. If you buy it and then make a fuss about returning it, the untouchables from other places are just annoying!"

Huang Lao's second daughter-in-law didn't care about this. After taking the money, she took off Huang Guilu's fine clothes and took them to the medical clinic. She kowtowed to the doctor to save Huang Guilu's family.

The doctor was afraid that something might happen, so he had no choice but to treat Huang Gui's family, apply medicine to their bones, fix their injuries, and send them a pack of medicine as a gift. He didn't dare to spend more time breathing.

Si Lifang could not tolerate the trouble caused by the disaster victims from other places, so they sent officers to capture Huang Lao'er and his wife at the entrance of the town, and whipped them ten times in public.

When everything was over and we returned to the village, it was completely dark, but Huang Lao's second wife refused to accept it and made another fuss.

……

Qin Liupo asked Qin Laoliu to light a torch and escort them. They listened to the gossip for half an hour, and then ran back and told them: "Then the Huang family is afraid that the ancestral graves are not buried properly. Bad things happen one after another. It makes trouble." It has to be more exciting than singing and opera!”

"Then Mr. Huang Wu is also a sinister person. The life-saving money given to her nephew is as much as the food and drink money given to her son. If I were Huang Lao's second wife, I would strangle her to death on the spot!"

Because the family has the ancestral position of village chief, and they are fleeing from disasters, the brothers of Village Chief Huang have not yet separated their families, and the money is all managed by the Huang Wu family.

"Then Huang Guilu is not a thing. When he was detained and wanted to be punished, he threatened the Huang family, saying that if he was injured, he would not be admitted as a scholar next year, and the Huang family would have to wait another three years to turn around!"

"After hearing this, the Huang family actually believed it. Most of them came forward to intercede with him... Bah, Huang Guilu, who can't even walk stably, still wants to take the exam? Whether he can survive until next year is a matter of course!"

His thin mouth was bubbling, and saliva was flying everywhere.

Qin Xiaomi quickly grabbed the basket and stepped back ten feet.

Qin Liupo was angry and asked her with her hands on her hips: "Little girl Xiaomi, what do you mean? Do you dislike me?"

Then he pointed at the basket and said: "What are you doing with these kudzu roots? I told you, this thing is as hard as firewood. Even if you cook it for several hours, people can't bite it. If you still do it, you are really eating the roots." Addicted?"

Grandma Qin thought that she was seriously ill, so she advised Grandma Qin: "Sister-in-law Wu, although the girl's movie is not valuable, Xiaomi's father only has her bloodline left, so you should spend money to take her to the town to see her brain. After all, he was injured."

Qin Xiaomi really wanted to strangle her to death: "If you curse me again, I'll give you back the money you got from selling the wild boar!"

Qin Liupo was shocked when she heard this. She hurriedly slapped herself in the mouth and said with a smile: "It's Liupo who can't speak. Don't be angry, Xiaomi girl... If you like to eat this Ge Chai, then Liupo will help you get it. But now Mrs. Tian It’s late, Grandma Six is ​​too tired from clearing wasteland, so she has to go back to sleep, and I’ll come back to help you tomorrow.”

After saying that, he pulled Qin Laoliu and ran back to the half-collapsed house on the right.

Qin Xiaomi was angry: "I feel tired when I work, why don't I feel tired when I listen to gossip?!"

"Xiaomi, don't talk about your elders like that." Grandma Qin said and asked her to pack her things: "It's really getting late. Go to bed and do it tomorrow."

Qin Xiaomi was also sleepy: "Okay."

Aunt Qin left hot water for her and asked her to scrub her body before they went back to the main room on the right to sleep.

This room is specially designed for the girls to sleep in. Their aunt and nephew, Qin Mei, Qin Ertao, Qiao Lizi, and four-year-old Jiang Xiaozhu all live here, and it is very lively.

The next day, the men of the Jiu family got up before dawn again and rushed to work on the land that was cleared yesterday.

Not long after, people from the Chai and Zhang families also arrived, and they were busy opening up wasteland.

There were many people in the field today, and they were afraid that someone would target the girls, so the girls did not come to open up wasteland today. They all stayed at home to help Qin Xiaomi get kudzu.Ouch, dusk, the whole house was filled with the sound of splitting kudzu root. Mrs. Qin Liupo's hands were numb from the splitting, and she said angrily: "Girl Xiaomi, if you can't make the kudzu powder you mentioned, you have to pay us labor. Anyway, you have money!"

A kid's family can't hide money, so if they don't spend the one or two silver dollars quickly, they might lose it.

Qin Xiaomi chuckled: "You are really good at calculating. If you don't want to split kudzu and go to open up wasteland, I didn't ask Sixth Po to stay and make kudzu powder."

Qin Liupo said hurriedly: "Liu Po ​​is wrong. Liu Po ​​likes to make kudzu powder."

At least Pi Ge Chai can sit in the house and control the younger generation, which is much more enjoyable than going to open up wasteland.

"If you can't sit still, go fetch water." Grandma Qin said, looking at Qin Eryong's wife and Qin Cunquan's wife: "Put down the buckets. You are too young. It is not safe to fetch water. Let older women do it. "

The villagers have all escaped the famine, so they must be on guard, otherwise if something happens, their family will be destroyed.

"Hey." Mrs. Su and Mrs. Liu put down the buckets.

Grandma Qin stared at her so hard that she didn't dare to sit still anymore. She got up and went to fetch water with Aunt Xu, Aunt Qiao, Dashi's wife, and Dayan's wife.

Qin Xiaomi and the others accelerated the chopping of kudzu. After chopping, they put the kudzu pieces into a stone mortar and pounded them with large wooden pillars.

After grinding the kudzu root pieces into crumbs, put them into water and start washing the powder and filtering the kudzu root dregs.

After washing and filtering three times, Qin Liupo couldn't bear it, threw the pole away, and asked angrily: "Are you done washing it? If you continue washing it, all of us water carriers will be useless!"

Qin Xiaomi: "Okay, after the water settles, you can get the arrowroot powder."

Qin Liupo: "How long will it take for it to settle? What kind of nonsense is this? I have never seen it in all my years. If you can't do it, you have to pay me to carry water!"

Dawei's kudzu root is relatively hard, and people here call it kudzu root. They dislike it very much. They are afraid that if it is used to raise pigs, it will have too much residue, which will block the pig's intestines and make the pigs sick.

Moreover, this food-preparing method of extracting starch from rhizome plants would sound a bit fanciful at first if no one cooked it for you, so Qin Liupo didn't believe it.

Grandma Qin didn't believe it either, but she doted on her granddaughter, and they were short of food now. It would be a good thing if Xiaomi really tinkered with some new food.

There is another one, Xiaomi's parents are dead, his brother is missing, and his reputation is not good. If he can get a new grain, it will be good for his reputation. If Jiang Dalang becomes successful in the future, he will not dare to dislike Xiaomi.

Qin Xiaomi said: "Sixth Po, just because you haven't seen it, it doesn't mean there is no such method of making flour in the world."

Then he said: "I will definitely let you eat arrowroot powder tomorrow."

"Okay, if you can't eat, just be prepared to pay wages." Qin Liupo was so tired that she stopped doing any work, so she fell down and took a nap.

I had a dream. I dreamed that Qin Xiaomi failed to make arrowroot powder and was scolded by her. Xiaomi girl cried and admitted her mistake. She also paid her one or two silver for the work and promised to do her bidding in the future. , never contradict her again.

Hahaha, Mrs. Qin Liu woke up from her sweet dream.

Qin Xiaomi thought she was sick and was afraid of being infected, so he stayed away from her.

Before dark, the men came back and had dinner together.

Jiang Dalang asked about kudzu powder and learned that it would take a few hours to pour water to make powder. He got up before dawn the next day and helped Qin Xiaomi pour water to make powder.

Qin Xiaomi heard the noise and hurriedly got up to take a look. When he saw it, he said: "Dalang, you don't have to help me like this, let's..."

Jiang Dalang interrupted her and said with a smile: "I understand, I won't force you. It's just that if this arrowroot powder is really made, it will be a profitable business, and my family also wants to take a share, so I have to help with the work."

He has to be involved in everything she does, making their bond deeper and deeper, to the point where they are inseparable!
