Rebirth Era: Skill Space

Chapter 128 Learning to Pickle Sauerkraut ()

When she came out of the kitchen with red wine grains and salt, she saw Shen Yuyu and Lu Xueyu entering the room with a pile of vegetables, so she asked Shen Yuyu, "Why did you come back so late today?"

"Uncle Wang and I went to learn how to plow."

"plow?"

"Well, it's the thing tied to the cow when plowing the field."

Bian Lili immediately understood what a plow was after listening to Shen Yuyu's explanation, but she expressed deep doubts about whether Shen Yuyu's small body could handle the ox and the plow.

So she asked Shen Yuyu: "Why are you learning the plow? Maybe you want to go down to the fields to plow the land."

"Well, what's the problem?"

"There is a problem, and a big one."

"what is the problem?"

"Are you sure you can handle an ox with your small body? Can you plow?"

"Of course I'm sure. Uncle Wang said that strength is the most used to plow the land, but ingenuity. So as long as I learn how to use ingenuity, plowing the land will not be a problem."

After Bian Lili heard Shen Yuyu's words, she put the red wine grains and salt in her hand on the table, then she made a cheering gesture to Shen Yuyu, reached out to take the Gai Cai in Shen Yuyu's hand, and said to Shen Yuyu : "I've warmed your rice in the pot for you, go wash your hands and eat."

"Okay." After Shen Yuyu finished speaking, she walked towards the kitchen.

After Bian Lili left Shen Yuyu, she said to Lu Xueyu: "Sister-in-law, everything is ready, can we pickle sauerkraut now?"

"Not yet."

"why?"

"I forgot to bring the wooden basin for kneading vegetables. You go to the storage room and get the wooden basin for kneading vegetables."

Bian Lili nodded after hearing Lu Xueyu's words, and then she walked towards the storage room.

A few minutes later, Bian Lili returned to the main room with the wooden basin for kneading vegetables, and then she put the wooden basin on the table, and said to Lu Xueyu, "Sister, everything is ready now, you can start teaching me how to marinate. Let’s sauerkraut.”

"Of course." After Lu Xueyu finished speaking, she picked up a sun-dried sauerkraut and put it in the basin, then grabbed a pinch of salt and sprinkled it on the vegetable, and then rubbed the vegetable vigorously.

She didn't stop rubbing until the cabbage was softened, and continued to the next step - wiping the red wine lees.

After she evenly spread the red wine lees on the vegetable, she bundled the vegetable into a small ball and stuffed it into the jar.

"Do you understand?" Lu Xueyu asked Bian Lili after stuffing the Gai Cai covered with salt and red wine lees into the jar.

"I see that I understand it, but I don't know if I will do it."

"Try it first, it's very simple."

Bian Lili nodded after hearing Lu Xueyu's words, and then she recalled the steps that Lu Xueyu had just done in her mind before starting to practice.

A few minutes later, after Bian Lili stuffed the small ball of Gai Cai she had bundled into the jar, she asked Lu Xueyu, "Sister-in-law, did I do anything wrong?"

"No, you did a good job. Next, follow the steps you did just now to sprinkle all the vegetables with salt and red wine lees, and then put them into jars."

"it is good."

Half an hour later, after Bian Lili put all the vegetables and seasonings into the jar, she asked Lu Xueyu, "Sister-in-law, what should I do next?"

"Seal the jar, do you have newspaper, string and plastic at home?"

"Yes, I'll get it right away."
