Chapter 848: Washing Kudzu Powder

In terms of hardship, cleaning kudzu powder is truly quite arduous. But if we talk about the level of detail...

There's absolutely no such thing!

Just go big or go home! There's no technique at all; it's all basic operations.

For example, when Zhang Wangjia scooped out the kudzu fragments—which had been hammered into dregs and fibers and were still soaked in juice—from the stone mortar, he used a combination of scraping and scooping, very ruggedly.

After scooping it out, the key step is "washing."

Most powders can't escape this action. It sounds hard to understand, but once you do it, even a three-year-old will know how.

You just need to put them into a large basin or bucket, pour in clean water, and then use your hands to rub and knead them with force...

That's it.

The water washed out is stark white and rich in color; you can feel the layers of starch inside.

At this point, you just need to scoop out the dregs that have been rubbed and washed enough, wring out the moisture, set it aside, and then cover the basin of wash water and let it sit quietly for a night or a few days.

"Friends, I'm going back to eat first. Everyone, remember to preview and review!"

Song Tantan's 【Rural Chronicle】 livestream had long since exited, but the 【Secretary Xiao Zhu】 livestream, after an hour of streaming—perhaps because the rhythm was similar to Song Tantan's—saw its follower count stabilize at 210,000...

He counted the days on his fingers and realized it had indeed been more than half a month! He hurriedly rushed into the kitchen: "Is it delicious? Is it delicious?"

Because Qiaoqiao also came out holding a bowl to watch with him, and took the opportunity to instruct: "It's cooled down. Have you checked the insulation work for the beehives? When the flowers start blooming in the canopy, you need to bring a box of bumblebees in."

Let's worry about future things in the future; anyway, there's plenty of time.

Now that there's time, why not think about how to hold the pig-slaughtering banquet for the New Year?

At this moment, everyone at home was waiting to eat. Song Tantan rode the little car with Secretary Xiao Zhu, Zhang Yanping, and Xin Jun in the back, speeding all the way, actively rushing home, fearing that the lunch wouldn't be as fragrant if they waited too long.

However, Song Tantan had learned from spring to autumn, and there were only a few elements to pickling vegetables. At this moment, she wasn't afraid at all, but instead full of anticipation:

Qiaoqiao withdrew his hand and nodded: "Fine! Eat as much as you want. You pickled such a huge pile back then—it piled up half the room—why don't you send another twenty or thirty jars to Boss Chang tomorrow?"

After a morning of nagging, although his practical experience was still lacking, his theoretical knowledge was already quite rich. At this moment, he even expanded on the knowledge for the next lesson:

Shao Yue paused: "Bears don't like to move in winter... why can't we bring honeybees?"

"Fine! I must pickle several vats well!"

The implication was that next time, he wouldn't even provide verbal guidance.

【Host, tell us what you're planting next year in advance so I can prepare the study tools on Taobao.】

Just as they entered the courtyard, they saw Uncle Qi laughing: "Song Tantan, hurry up and come taste the sweet potato stems you pickled!"

Just in this time slot, to have such a follower count... Internet celebrity Song Tantan, the name is well-deserved!

【Just ask the students here, who has land, and who has kudzu in the land to review and preview?】

"Friends, that's how you wash kudzu powder. Has everyone learned it?"

Next year...

The silly child is good at everything, except that his self-confidence is a bit too strong; he's not humble at all.

Qiaoqiao thought that next year's plan would be incredibly busy! Planting is a must, but as for the specific planning and arrangement, we'll have to see how many people in the village intend to stay after the New Year.

"Delicious!" Aunt Lianhua was always supportive and held up her thumb:

"It's delicious. Stir-fried with minced meat and chili, you can smell that sour, spicy, and appetizing aroma from far away. I can eat two big bowls today too."

Sigh, the era of scattering beans to make soldiers is over!

"Wait until tomorrow, the powder-washing water will settle and form layers. At that time, pour off the water on top, scoop out the wet Shao Yue uncle at the bottom and dry it in the sun, and finally, that's our dry kudzu powder!"

As for the clumped dregs, they can be used for fertilizer, or washed again with clean water to ensure as little waste as possible...

And there's that savior whose face I don't remember at all. Should I invite them now? Or wait until the pig-slaughtering time is confirmed?

However, the responsibility of the model worker Song Tantan clearly didn't stop there.

But then again, he was also laughing happily: "Right, you have talent, you're amazing—when winter comes, we'll pickle cabbage and radishes. I'll leave it all to you then. Can you do it?"

Qiaoqiao smiled: "Because bumblebees have fat bodies and big butts, they can pollinate flowers in a large range and with high efficiency when they crawl into them, which is more efficient than honeybees."

This was the first time Song Tantan had independently pickled vegetables and succeeded so quickly! At this moment, she was extremely pleasantly surprised: "I'm so amazing!"

"Ah!" Shao Yue said in surprise: "Is it already done?"

【My family has land... but farming doesn't fill my stomach. I still have to be a wage earner.】

Song Tantan nodded and shoveled another mouthful of sour, spicy, and crunchy pickled sweet potato stems: "It's so delicious and goes so well with rice. Sister, let's plant more next year."

Those actions were labor-intensive and time-consuming, but there was really no difficulty at all. Qiaoqiao watched the whole process, and even though it was time for lunch, he couldn't bear to leave, just looking at the two photographers with eager eyes:

"Can I come try tomorrow morning?" The photographer waved his hand: "Yes, yes! We have enough material for today! The rest is just supplementary or the time isn't right; you can do whatever you want!"

Uncle Qi:...

There was already a large ceramic vat for pickling vegetables at home, and now that there were many people eating at home, several more were purchased this year. Now they were lined up against the wall with the remaining two sauce jars. Shao Yue held his bowl and stood out to look, full of confidence.

Wow!

The bullet comments were already numb.

She just wanted to benefit the countryside and influence it subtly... There was still a long way to go in the future!

Raising her hand again, she rubbed the tiny bit of spiritual energy on her fingertips—it was much better than when she first came back, but this was the result of her diligent cultivation every night!

……

Furthermore, the bumblebee colony at home was only the few dozen hatched in the bear year, much smaller in scale than a honeybee colony, making it more convenient to carry around.

Even though Zhang Yanping had predicted it, he couldn't help but be shocked by Song Tantan's ability to attract traffic.

"Can I come try tomorrow morning?"

Thinking of this, Qiaoqiao urged Song Tantan: "Be good. Uncle Zhang said the kudzu dregs can be left for our family to ferment and feed the pigs, cows, and sheep... Did you bring any back? After eating, let's give our pigs an extra meal!"

Song Tantan cheered, and at this moment, she finally remembered the brand-new Secretary Xiao Zhu livestream that had been forgotten once again:

Now she could gather spiritual energy in the water and lead it down from the mountain spring for irrigation, without having to worry about it every night.

You have to know, they only started streaming at 10 AM, and now it was past 12 PM, which was exactly the peak time for streaming. ===== CHAPTER 849 =====
