Do you know how the millet we usually eat comes from? With the development of society, in the past, rice and white flour were the most wanted foods for rural people. Nowadays people like to eat rice, millet porridge, millet water rice and millet soup. Millet is the rice that farmers have worked hard to grow. In the past, in the production team, millet was planted the most, and farmers basically ate confused and small rice. Therefore, eating millet is very common for ordinary people. After the dissolution of the production team, farmers stopped planting rice because of the low yield of rice. In the past, the valleys planted by many farmers have been replaced by corn and other crops, so it is difficult for millet to eat very pure millet now, and even now, it is difficult to eat very pure millet in rural areas.

In the past, growing grain was a troublesome and tiring farm work. It takes several people to grow millet. One person leads the animals in front, and the other person holds the fence in the back to hedge the ground, then rakes it again, and then talks about the grain. It also takes several people, one person leads the animals in front, one person holds the tiller in the back, and one person covers the land that has been talked about the grain in the back. This will help the grain to keep the soil moisture germinate quickly and make the millet sprout together. After the spring rain, the millet germinated and began to show yellow teeth. After a few days, all the green seedlings came out. Paddy is the most tiring job. When rice seedlings grow like a grass, the grass around the rice seedlings must be wormed one by one, because when seedlings grow wormwood, they have to bend over wormwood, and when they are tired, they squat down wormwood.

If it's sunny when it's almost ripe, millet will lodging when it's windy and rainy. When the millet is about to ripen, Artemisia should be sown again to ensure the purity of the millet. The rice is ripe. Cutting grain is also a hard job. I don't want to have large harvesters now. At that time, all of them used scythes to cut one by one, and it was too tiring to cut the millet for a day. Some of them directly cut the rice heads first and then grabbed the straw. My family cut the rice heads at Lala's house first, and the millet was ripe, and the yard was covered with new rice. In order to turn rice into seeds as soon as possible, the new rice can only be driven out with a stone hammer after drying. Wet grain is easy to be crushed when it is driven out. Spread the dried rice out and pull a stone mound with animals to drive out the grain seeds, and then raise the grain health inside and the grain head without grain seeds.

When I was young, I didn't have a mattress, but I used straw to fill the grass. My family used chaff. When I got up in the morning, I was covered with chaff. After the rice seeds are dried, you can grind the millet. At that time, the grinding was all done by animals. When I was a child, there was no electricity. I don't know why the eyes of the animals were covered with cloth, or I was afraid of turning the animals dizzy. After a while, the dried rice was ground and the golden millet was ground. The rice was delicious. At that time, almost all rural families had small rice at noon, just like eating big rice now, with little change. Without an electric cooker, cooking small rice means cooking rice in a big pot. Boil the water first, and then put the washed millet into the pot.

After cooking for more than ten minutes, I saw that the millet was almost ripe, so I fished it into the basin with a colander, and then put it in a pot for steaming. After steaming for about 20 minutes, delicious rice is ready. In those days, rice was grown with farmyard manure, that is, manure, and there was no fertilizer. However, at that time, the small rice was particularly delicious, and you could smell the fragrance of millet. Rice soup, Huang Cancan and My Sweetie were better than the milk now. It's also very nurturing. When the weather is hot in summer, soak the cooked millet in the newly drilled water, take out the cold rice and dip it in cucumber sauce. It will feel cool when it is hot. When pregnant women give birth, they must eat millet porridge and boiled eggs as their first meal to supplement their health and nutrition. It is the favorite food of our generation.

When I grow up, I seldom have rice. Sometimes I go to the market to buy some millet to cook porridge. I feel that these are not as delicious as the previous millet and I don't like soup. Without the taste of millet, the taste has changed. I often think that the past time has passed and the taste of small rice has disappeared! If everything can go back to the past, I also want to go back to the past, walking on rural roads, listening to crickets and squatting in the yard at home to eat small rice and pickles, as if I were a child again. The millet you have eaten now has no taste of the millet you ate as a child.
