Chapter 441 (1/2)
Ermenas, West Town
In the sunset, there are hills piled with straw on the fields, and there are still broken sections of straw on the ground after wheat harvest, which are not as smooth as before.
The wind is sitting on a stone pier under the tree, watching the afterglow of the sunset spread all over the world, pulling out the long shadow of those hills made of wheat straw.
Finally, the harvest is over.
This is her first time to take part in the field work. Although she wanted to give up halfway, she insisted on it because of her low self-esteem.
Today, you must take a good bath when you go back. Fengnai begins to miss the shower in the student dormitory. However, there is a bathtub in servis' home, but it takes more time to boil water.
The residents of the town put the straw on trolleys and sent it to a side barn for storage. The next thing is threshing.
Penny came up with a bunch of ears of wheat.
”Miss, how do you feel, today's work.” She leaned down, put her hand on her knee, and looked at this different young lady.
”Now the only feeling is that I don't want to do anything, then I take a bath, eat something and lie in bed.”
”It's nice to remember to eat.” Penny smiles.
”Has fengnai eaten wheat?”
”Of course I have.”
”Either bread made of flour or wheat ears.” PANI shook the ears in her hand. This bunch was different from the golden ears in the field. It was cyan and didn't seem to be fully mature.
”Come with me“ Penny pulls fengnai to a place where the wind blows. Then she picks up a little wheat straw left on the ground and puts it together to light it. A burst of green smoke rises with the smell of smoke, followed by a faint flame.
As the valet of the first lady of the anemie family, although she is not top-notch in strength, sequence 2 is still available. She can easily heat things and serve the host better.
”Is that what you want?” The wind is a little puzzled looking at penny.
”It's Roasted ears of wheat.”
Penny took the green bunch of wheat and smoked it over the open fire. Soon the smoke rose and there was an occasional crackling explosion. As the fire started, Penny turned the ears of wheat in her hand to heat them evenly, and then a faint fragrance floated out.
”All right.”
Penny took down the bunch of ears. The green ears were covered with a layer of scorched black. The smell of smoke and fire spread out in the air, and a little ash floated and fell in the air.
”If you want to have a look, it's actually quite good.”
After a little cooling, Penny put the wheat into her palm and rubbed it. The dust and soft skin fell off. Then Penny opened her palm and let fengnai choose the wheat to eat.
Feng Nai is a bit curious to try one. A kind of waxy and sweet feeling will diffuse on the tip of the tongue. Although the weight is small, the taste is very novel.
”Can wheat be eaten like this?” She reached out and took the roasted ears of wheat from Penny's hand and ate them small.
”Well, it can only be the unripe ears of green wheat. The mature grains are hard, so it's not good to eat them. Besides, there are a lot of black ashes on the roast. Those noble people won't try.”
”But the taste is really novel.”
When fengnai was eating, his fingers were stained with black ash. Now this young lady is less innocent and more sunny and beautiful.
”Just like it. In fact, there are many new and interesting things in the world.” As the sun sets, dragonflies fly in the fields in the afterglow of the sunset.
