Hard times have room

Chapter 503 "Something Happened"

On the other side, Paulin and Dongmei had already entered the woods and picked up mushrooms in the woods.

In recent days, the two have settled down a lot. Those secluded places, they dare not go again, for fear of being unsafe, they only pick up some mushrooms and dig some wild vegetables in the places where people in the village often walk around.

Although they did this, the gains would be much less, but they were better than safety. Besides, there would always be some gains. After more than two hours, half of the backpack could still be filled.

The two of them didn't spend more than two hours in the woods, but only more than an hour. After they finished turning the places where mushrooms grow, they went out of the woods and went to the wild grass to dig wild vegetables and catch grasshoppers.

When they came across some odds and ends, the two of them did not let it go. As long as they could eat and eat, they both put them in the back basket.

When the two return home, it can definitely be said that they have returned with a full load, and the backpack on their backs is already full.

Mushrooms are at the bottom of the basket, occupying 1/3. The middle and top of the basket are all wild vegetables and grasshoppers. They are all mixed together. The two basically dig when they see wild vegetables, and catch grasshoppers when they see them. .

Although the grasshopper they caught wasn't dead yet, it was almost the same as dead. The grasshopper's wings would be ripped off, as would its legs, so they wouldn't have to run at all.

As soon as they got home, before Su Hongying and Wang Jiandang came back, Paulin started to prepare the ingredients for lunch.

Mushrooms and wild vegetables are all soaked in water in a basin, and it is much easier to wash them after soaking.

Today at noon, Pauline is planning to make a loach and mushroom soup. I put less loach, but I can put more mushrooms.

There are still a lot of loach in the family, a little more than three kilograms. This is the result of saving for seven or eight days.

All the other fish caught at home were eaten, and only the loach was left alone.

For nothing else, just because this loach is neither picky nor picky about food, it can live in the water, and there is no need to worry about their food at all, it is really easy to feed.

After so many days, the number of loach in her family seems to be considerable. She has not eaten it these days, just to save it and eat it later. Today, she really doesn't know what to eat, so she arranged this.

There were only eight frogs left last night, but these days, there is basically a meal of frogs every day. To be honest, she is a little tired of eating, so it's better to change the taste.

Now there are more and more frogs, especially in the paddy fields. There is nothing to grow in the paddy fields in the village now, and they are all deserted, which is a pity.

However, a large number of barren fields have also spawned a large number of fish, frogs and insects. In less than a month, the weeds in the paddy fields are as high as her knees. There, it is simply a paradise for fish and insects.

Thanks to those things in the fields, now every household in the village is not short of meat. If nothing else, there are a lot of frogs, as well as those small miscellaneous fish and loach. As long as you are patient and willing to take the time to catch, always There will be some gains.

In those paddy fields, most of them are loach, but the fields are full of water, and the loach will drill holes, which is really not easy to catch.

Unless someone is willing to make great efforts to surround a field alone, trample on it as much as possible, and make the water extremely turbid, it is possible to let the loach float on the water like driftwood. You can catch it with your hands, it's very simple.

However, most people in the village feel that the loach has a very strong smell of soil, and it does not taste good in the mouth, so many people do not like eating loach very much. You might as well catch frogs, dig wild vegetables, and pick up mushrooms!
Paulin really likes loach, but her parents have to go to work, so she can't handle it alone!

So although she knew that there were many loaches in the field, she just thought about it. When her father didn't go to work one day and had time, she could try it.

Now the loach at home has been gathered together for so long, but if the field is fenced, it is still very simple to get a pound or two back in the morning.

But she has to make the meal of loach at noon today. Her parents have eaten it, and everything is negotiable. You know, the two of them are very concerned about their appetite. In this regard, their demands are no better than hers. less.

When I was in the old house, there was loach in the house, but it was not her turn to make it. The old lady at home thought it had a strong earthy smell, so I chopped it up and gave it to the baby hen at home, and ate the loach. Meat, for the next two days, the hens were still very diligent in laying eggs.

In the opinion of the old lady, eating eggs is much better and more affordable than loach. The eggs can be exchanged for money, just one word, it is worth.

She felt that that was the correct way to deal with such a thing as a loach. Then, all the loach in the family went into the mouths of the hens, even if Pauline strongly asked her to do it, um, the real person is not as good as the chicken incident .

After waiting for a while, Su Hongying and Wang Jiandang came back. However, after only staying at home for a while, they went out again. This time it was a family of three who went out together to watch the fun.

Oh, no, I went to persuade me to fight.

Not long after the two returned, Wang Cheng's daughter-in-law came to Bao Lin's house with a look of excitement, and panted to the family of three who were surrounded by a basin washing mushrooms and wild vegetables: "Hongying, why are you still washing mushrooms, hurry up? Put it down, your old lady is about to start a fight with your two concubines, and now it's huhu"

"Now the yard of your old house is very lively, and it's about to fight. It seems that someone stole the old lady's money." After saying these words, Wang Cheng's wife stood there by herself, gasping for breath. Take a sip, your mouth is very busy.

"What, is it true? They really fought." Su Hongying stood up, her face full of excitement.

Although the tone of her speech was mostly shock, it contained a little interest in it, which conveyed the meaning of wanting to watch the fun right away, but Wang Cheng's wife was so busy breathing that she didn't notice it at all. These, otherwise, in the next few days, some new materials will be added to the gossip in the village.

After these words were spoken, Su Hongying also realized that her expression and tone of voice were a bit inappropriate, so she changed her expression and said with a squeeze of her voice: "I don't know why, it's all a family, how did this happen? Like it!"

"No, I have to persuade them. I can't let them go on like this. They are my relatives anyway. It's not good to hurt anyone. I have to stop them." The speed of the sprint ran out of his yard and went straight to the old house.

Although she didn't know what was going on, it didn't prevent her from going to watch the fun. She was her nemesis. At this moment, how could she not take a look.

As long as I think of the scene of the old lady at home and her two sisters-in-law, the three of them fighting, I really tremble and stimulate.
