The heroine of Kuai Chuan Zhi's family only farms

Chapter 1590 [1589] Under Changbai Mountain

Aunt Lu went into the mountains to dig wild vegetables with her sisters today. Although the wild vegetables in this era are not worth much at all, the habit of eating mountains and relying on water has always been there, not to mention that people on their side have long been used to eating wild vegetables. These things, even though the living conditions are getting better day by day, the wild vegetables in the mountains are not expensive, and they can be dried to make dried vegetables in winter, so just work harder?

If you are lucky, you can even dig up valuable medicinal materials, not to mention those fungi that emerge endlessly during the rainy season.

Aunt Lu greeted her warmly when she saw her. Panting heavily, she threw today's results on the ground and winked at them mysteriously.

"It's really time for you two to come back. Guess what I found today?"

Grandpa Lu was washing his face by the pressurized well, without raising his head, he said, "Wild eggs? Or bird eggs?"

Aunt Lu smiled and shook her head, "No, dad, let's guess again?"

Grandma Lu cooperated, picking a cucumber and rubbing it on the long-sleeved shirt.

"Since it's a good thing, it must be the most expensive thing in the mountain. It's not pheasant and hare, or all kinds of bird eggs, but it's medicinal materials?"

However, what Aunt Lu brought out scared Grandma Lu so much that the cucumber she had just swallowed got stuck in her throat. Fortunately, Bai Zhi reacted quickly and helped Grandma Lu spit out the cucumber. Ding Wei squinted her eyes and looked at it. A snake several meters long. Of course, this is not the most important thing. The key point is that the snake is still alive. Auntie holds it directly in her hand, and the snake body is wrapped around her arm, constantly tightening.

The way to deal with wild vegetables in summer is to make dried vegetables and save them for winter, which has a special taste.

Seeing that Bai Zhi was praising Ding Wei, she couldn't help curling her lips.

Ding Wei pursed her lips and laughed: "Aren't grandparents and aunts being polite to me? No one can compare to the medicinal food you cook. I still learn from you. Sister, don't eat it. I will give it to you tomorrow." Can you make yogurt and fruit to eat?"

"You are a real little girl. It seems that you have eaten it before, right? You know it is delicious? You also know how to make snake soup?"

"I'll make it for you at noon tomorrow, and we'll eat it tonight..., Weiwei, this girl doesn't understand the habits here, Bai Zhi, what do you want to eat?"

Bai Zhi turned her head: "Yogurt? Do you know how to make yogurt?"

As expected of a family, as soon as the food was served, they all took the spoons to drink the soup. The hot and sour soup made Bai Duruo's eyes shine, and he couldn't help sighing.

"Isn't yogurt just like this? What else can you do? But if you think yogurt is not tasty, I can make milk tea for you. Do you want milk tea?"

"Hey, it's delicious. The little girl is amazing. Although this bean sprout soup is not the original taste of our Korean people, but you have added your own ideas. It is very refreshing. Apart from being a little hot, there is nothing wrong with it. The craftsmanship is good. And the wild vegetables are also delicious when mixed, and the water is just right, not too stale, and it has the unique fragrance of wild vegetables. After adding garlic juice and chili oil, the taste will rise to a certain height."

"Well, come back, after returning from the milk delivery, she will go into the mountains, every day is this day, you see she is tanned, it's useless to say, we are idle, let's make lunch first, eat enough I also go into the mountains after I arrive, and I won’t come back at noon. I can take the rice with me. Many people here do this. It’s summer anyway. It doesn’t matter whether it’s cold or not. It’s made into easy-to-eat rice balls, and then mixed with a few cold dishes. That's it."

The wild vegetables in the bags also need to be taken out, or they may be covered overnight. It is impossible to choose vegetables, and they can’t see them clearly, so they find breathable sacks and put them in. They will clean them up and dry them in the morning when they wake up tomorrow. .

While the two sisters were eating in the kitchen, the elders had already boiled water to wash and rested, after all they were tired all day.

Unexpectedly, Ding Wei said with a smile: "Auntie, I see that you sent out bean sprouts, how about we eat bean sprout soup and rice?"

After hearing this, Ding Wei said generously: "I have seen many snakes in the straw stacks since I was a child. I often saw snakes when cutting wheat. There are also snakes in the grass. There are even snakes in the sand pits on the river beach. We There are almost no poisonous snakes there, they are all non-venomous snakes, or cauliflower snakes, but snakes are spiritual, we rarely eat this stuff, and I have to give a thumbs up to Auntie’s technique just now, she is really a heroine I’m not afraid of this thing, but I’m a bit disgusted and disgusted, especially this kind of cold-blooded animal, I’ll get goose bumps when I see it, let alone eat it, I’m not interested in tonight’s snake soup!”

"Yes, this day is very suitable for making yogurt. Don't we have sheep? Can we milk it?"

"Oh my god, this is too delicious, come on, let me have another bite."

"She is a diligent little girl. This porridge is also good. Not to mention eating mung beans in summer to relieve heat, it also reduces heat. Apart from being a little thicker, there is no other problem. However, our family does not eat staple food at night, and thicker ones are fine It's nothing, with this soup, this dish, my old man will have a good taste!"

The two sisters steamed bean rice and added some beans to the rice, which is healthier and has a bean flavor.

They rarely make yogurt, and most of them sell fresh milk, which is also one of the herdsmen's income.

Snake meat was not made into snake soup, but grilled over charcoal fire. When it was sizzling, it was sprinkled with chili, pepper, and cumin powder, and the taste came out immediately. Just lost myself.

When she woke up the next day, Bai Zhi had already woken up. Not only did she fail to catch up with breakfast, but she also failed to send off the elders who went to the mountains to graze early, and the aunt who brought the goat milk away. Even Bai Zhi had fed all the poultry and livestock in the backyard. one time.

Ding Wei quickly added water to the pot again, boiled a pot of mung bean water, it is impossible to go up the mountain without water, just taking advantage of this time, it can also make the road drier.

"Yes, yes, but if you use goat's milk to make yogurt, will it taste like goat?"

Ding Wei and Bai Zhi processed the snake meat again and put it in the well.

"Well, well, wait overnight and have a look tomorrow morning, it will be ready to eat tomorrow afternoon at the earliest,"

"It looks like you are a girl who cooks at home, isn't it?" Grandma Lu couldn't help but praise, and Grandpa Lu next to her nodded in agreement.

Bean porridge is to put some beans in sticky rice and cook together. The beans here can be soybeans or mung beans. In summer, mung beans are usually the mainstay.

Bai Zhi pouted, "What, it's the same as ours, I thought you had some new method,"

"Did you not eat and left it to me? After getting up in the morning and busying for so long, come and replenish your energy."

The summer in Changbai Mountain is not very hot, but it can’t be called cool. In addition, the sudden rainstorm in the middle of the night made ice bumps. Fortunately, the deep well has a cover, so that the snake meat will not deteriorate. However, there are often mudslides in the mountain, which caused Ding Wei She tossed and turned all night and couldn't sleep, especially the mosquitoes in the mountains were so big that she was bitten a lot.

Ding Wei stared blankly at her: "I have eaten it, and I admit that it is delicious, but I just don't want to eat it. I rarely even eat rice field eel and loach."

The wild vegetables from last night had been cleaned and put in a cool place in the morning. They blanched some and cut them into easy-to-eat sizes. Together with the soaked and blanched soybean sprouts, they made a cold dish.

"I'm also good at attacking, you can't do this!"

Basically all cold dishes, no hot dishes.

"It's only eight or nine o'clock, you all have finished your lunch, it seems that I have to go if I don't,"

Ding Wei sensitively smelled the smell of blood, she frowned, not only brought water for Aunt Lu to wash, but also pulled out plant ash from the stove to let her wash off the smell on her hands.

The so-called bean sprout soup rice, the rice already has, it is soft and smooth bean porridge, Korean extra spicy kimchi, bean sprouts, homemade chili sauce, tofu cubes, fresh vegetables are put in the bean sprout soup, the taste is hot and sour, and it is very suitable for rice .

The meals were ready in a short time. There was soup, porridge, and side dishes. Everyone sat around the big cool table in the yard. Although it was already dark, it didn't affect their eating, especially Ding Wei's Craftsmanship, of course, is nothing to say.

Ding Wei glanced at the giggling Bai Zhi and nodded, "That's necessary. I know that you are Korean and like to eat light food. In addition, there are doctors in your family, so you pay special attention to diet. Bean sprout soup and rice are very Korean. It's light and refreshing, especially suitable for a day out. I can not only eat, but also make it. How about letting me and Bai Zhi make it tonight? Before you came back, we had already made bean porridge gone."

The more Aunt Lu looks at Ding Wei, the more she likes it, "I just like you, a cheerful girl. It's okay. Everyone has their own preferences. It's okay not to eat. Auntie will make you something else delicious. Baizhi is here to help, parents , you've had a hard day too, hurry up and rest,"

Bai Zhi was scrubbing the milk bucket, and turned her head in surprise when she heard this.

"Woke up, poor boy. Look, you were bitten by a mosquito. I thought you must have not slept well last night, so I didn't call you. There were two eggs, two potatoes, and two corns left in the pot. A bowl of goat's milk, we all drink goat's milk in the morning, I don't know if you are used to it."

But she didn't refuse Ding Wei's kindness, and ate the eggs with the cold salad in the morning.

Ding Wei was startled by being pampered, but quickly said: "Auntie, you are too polite, I can eat anything,"

"Nope, isn't it just thinking about Weiwei's last visit, thinking about going to buy some mutton, and let's make dumplings when I come back."

After the auntie thanked her, she tilted her head to look at her. Ding Wei was embarrassed by her look: "Auntie, why are you looking at me like that?"

Knowing that the two girls had prepared their lunch and brought it with them, Bai Duruo was a little relieved.

"Originally I wanted to buy some in the town, but it didn't look very fresh, and there were flies flying around, so I might as well come back and see if anyone killed a sheep to buy some, girl, don't be polite to auntie, we don't have anything else here, meat Enough."

"I see if you are pretending not to be afraid. There used to be a little girl who pretended not to be afraid, but she got a fever at night. Since then, she will never play with my Bai Zhi. Our Bai Zhi has eaten snake meat since we were young, and my family used to raise snakes. Crossing the snake, except for her grandma, no one in the family is afraid of this thing, but you are the first little girl who is not afraid from the bottom of my heart when I look at it, which surprises me, what's going on?"

As soon as the meal was ready, the smell in the yard hadn't dissipated, and Ding Wei hadn't even cleaned up the kitchen when Aunt Lu came back.

Not to mention, the small potatoes grown under Changbai Mountain taste really good. They are sweet and glutinous, and the corn is very sticky. After eating potatoes and corn and drinking goat milk, I can’t eat any more. There are two pieces left Egg, looking at Bai Zhi in embarrassment.

"Hmph, don't think that we didn't see it, so you just set up a fire and wash the dishes. It's just a slap in the face."

Yogurt needs to be fermented. The strain is borrowed from the neighbor’s house by my grandfather. The method is very simple. As long as there is this strain, it can be fermented naturally. And she also took this opportunity to go to the backyard to experience a squeeze The joys of goat's milk.

Because the Lu family is very busy, they seldom make yogurt. Of course, Bai Zhi also does it, but I don’t know if Ding Wei’s method is the same as theirs.

The torrential rain last night made the mountain road even more difficult to walk, but the more rain there is, the more abundant the materials in the mountain are, and after the rain, the sky is as blue and blue as washed, and there are even mud and weeds in the air The fragrance is very pleasant.

"It's really biased. I also participated in it. It's appropriate for you to join forces to praise Weiwei alone?"

"Du Ruo, it's getting dark, there's no need to make it so complicated, just keep it simple, eat it and rest, it's too complicated to digest, pick the snake meat first, hang it into the well, and eat it tomorrow, at night How easy it is, "

"Mom, do you have other plans today?"

Auntie obviously felt uncomfortable, and she didn't know where she conjured a dagger. She raised the knife and dropped it, and the snake died. She quickly peeled the snake's skin and took the gall. Ding Wei also saw from here that it was a non-poisonous snake.

"I make caramel milk tea, which is completely different from what you said. In this way, I will make it for you when I am free these days. You will know after you try it."

Anyway, there are few people in this age, and those things in the mountains can't be picked up no matter how hard they are.

When she came to the front yard, Ding Wei was washing up.

Ding Wei shook her head: "There's nothing you're not used to. Goat's milk is warm, while cow's milk is cold. Drinking goat's milk is good, it's good for your health,"

"Auntie coming back soon?"

Ding Wei's nose was piercing, and when she entered the Lu family's kitchen, she could smell basically everything.

The bean sprout soup is very fast to make. After all, there is firewood to cook in the pot, but it is not enough. It happened that my aunt brought back a lot of special wild vegetables belonging to Changbai Mountain today. These wild vegetables can be directly boiled in hot water to make cold dishes. Use these vegetables Eat it with white porridge, not to mention how enjoyable it is.

I thought this was the end, but my aunt caught a total of three snakes. Grandma Lu couldn't bear to look directly at them, and with the curious onlookers watching, she quickly disposed of the three non-poisonous snakes. When the snake meat was thrown into the basin At that time, a whole pot was actually coiled, and it weighed five to six to seven to eight catties by visual inspection. This was the weight after the dirty things were disposed of. Obviously, these snakes were not only long, but also heavy.

The roasted meat slices are placed in a lunch box separately, and then the rice balls are pinched and let cool. The messy lunches are piled up together, and six lunch boxes are integrated, with steamed potatoes and corn as side dishes, and then use them in suitable sizes The cloth is tied up for easy carrying.

The old man spoke, and Aunt Lu readily agreed, and then quietly slapped Bai Zhi, who was greedy.

Aunt Lu readily agreed, and Bai Zhi and Ding Wei went to the kitchen. It was already dark, and most people in the forest area were still lighting kerosene lamps, and the wires had not been connected here. Not very good.

Aunt Lu looked at her in surprise: "Hey, yes Weiwei, it seems that you know our local area well, oh no, is it our family's living habits?"

Wait until she cooks it first and then airs it to about [-] degrees, and then pours the yogurt strains into the pot. The ratio of yogurt strains is one, and goat milk is three, and then cover the pot. Bai Zhi saw it After that, look at her: "OK?"

Bai Zhi’s family also has a profit from delivering milk, which has always been done by the aunt. She wakes up in the morning to milk the milk, catches the carriage and sells it in the town. The two buckets can also earn eight or nine yuan a day. The butter has to be boiled, or it goes to waste.

Bai Zhi was tired after a day of tossing, and even snored a little, which sounded cute. Ding Wei couldn't sleep, and was afraid that turning over would affect Bai Zhi, so she simply put on her coat and stood on the porch to watch the rain, but because of the rain, the temperature It dropped a lot all of a sudden, and within a few minutes of standing, I was so cold that I went back to the house to sleep.

When Bai Zhi heard this, she laughed beside her, and took advantage of the opportunity to wrap her arms around her shoulders.

"Milk tea made with tea leaves and goat's milk?" Bai Zhi shook her head, "Don't drink it, don't drink it, it's nothing good to drink."

After the rice was stewed, Ding Wei patted a few cucumbers and mixed them coldly, and put them in a lunch box. Bai Zhi took two salted duck eggs, cut them in the middle, and made a dish, and added the spicy cabbage and green onions made by her mother. Kimchi each allocated some to another lunch box.

She ate three mouthfuls in a row, but none of them could fit into Ding Wei's mouth. Even if she refused to eat, there was nothing she could do about it.

The reason why they chose to live at the bottom of the mountain was also to make it easier to get in and out of the town, unlike the people on the mountain, they were completely self-sufficient.

Seeing that she had eaten the staple food, Bai Zhi left two eggs in a daze, so she scolded her: "Silly girl."

Ding Wei was a little curious, "Auntie, do all these sheep belong to us? There are no brigades here asking for mission pigs?"

"Yes, if you have mission sheep, just hand them in. No more than [-] sheep per household is enough. But you have also seen that whoever does not exceed, who can keep counting, besides, his own family also has to eat. , Eat and kill, wait until the time of the report, as long as it does not exceed the upper limit, our side is far away, what is speculative, it is not very strict, the spring market is still nervous, no one cares about us here, as long as there is no If people check, there will be no one who does such a good thing, the meat stamps and food stamps are not transferred so frequently here, and most of them use money."

Ding Wei looked envious, "That's a good thing, it's greatly convenient for everyone, and it also improves the enthusiasm of the masses."

"No, the big guys are working hard. As for the wild fungus, after they are dried, there are still people who come to buy them, so there are quite a lot of people going up the mountain this season. Now that they are here, let's pick more. , When it’s done, go to the post office in the town and send it back to your family!”
