Going through ancient farming to engage in infrastructure construction

Chapter 31 Chapter 31
Mu Feng was holding a stone spear, Yao Xiaoqing was carrying an engineering shovel, and the two looked around vigilantly.

The group of people didn't dare to delay for a moment and ran all the way, and they didn't relax until they got out of the forest.After resting for a while, Mufeng took Yaohu's stick, and they carried the black bear down the mountain.

After entering the yard, Hua looked at the big black bear in surprise, "Ah! You caught such a big black bear."

"Oh! Stop it," sighed the pig, "I was almost scared to death by the black bear today. This dead bear has been following Xiaoqing for some reason, and she..."

Everyone watched him play tricks, and waited for him to finish showing off with gestures.Yaohu smiled and patted him, "Hurry up and skin the black bear."

Yao Xiaoqing smiled and said to Yaohu: "Father, bear bile and bear paws are good things, you should remember to keep them. You are also hungry, I will make food for you."

"Okay, I'll keep it for you later." Yaohu said with a smile.

Hua followed her into the cave, "Xiaoqing, Shan and Shuibo dug up a pile of things when they were cutting trees at the foot of the mountain. We dug them when we were in the tribe. They said that it was inedible like bark."

Following the direction the flower pointed, Yao Xiaoqing saw a basket full of things that looked like big tree roots in the basket. She walked to the basket, picked up one and looked at it, and it turned out to be kudzu root.

This stuff is also good, it can be made into powder to fry duck egg pancakes, and it can also be eaten as a paste. It is said that it can also reduce blood pressure and increase breast size.

The difficult thing is, what kind of filter is used after mashing?Yao Xiaoqing looked at Ge Gen in trouble.

Hua saw her frowning, "Xiaoqing, can I eat it? There's a big one growing down the mountain!"

"It's edible, but it's a little troublesome. If you make food, I'll ask Shang Mufeng to wash it by the pond."

Yao Xiaoqing walked outside the cave, and suddenly thought of those people who planted kudzu in the village in the previous life, using the kudzu leaves to press the soil for breeding.Although kudzu root is not a staple food, it is better than eating wild vegetables and barbecue every day!It seems that we have to look for potatoes in the woods, such as yams and yams.

Yao Xiaoqing didn't care about cleaning the kudzu root, and hurried down the mountain.

Shan was surprised to see her, "Xiaoqing, why did you come back so soon? What about your father and the others?"

"Father and the others skinned the bear at home, and we hunted a big black bear. Uncle Shan, where did you dig those tree roots?"

"It's a big black bear, no wonder you came back. We went to see the trap early in the morning, and there was nothing in it." Shan took Yao Xiaoqing to the place where kudzu root grew, "I knew it, you know how to eat those trees root."

Yao Xiaoqing smiled, "Uncle Shan, that one is called Gegen, not Shugen."

Shan smiled and said, "Whatever the kudzu root is, as long as it can be eaten. There are some that have been dug up in the soil, and they will be dug out later if they can be eaten."

Shan pointed to the vines in the forest and said to Yao Xiaoqing: "Look, it's the kind of vines that grow under it."

Yao Xiaoqing saw that the shrubs in the forest were covered with vines like carob vines, and the leaves looked a bit like lentil leaves.

She brought up a thick and strong vine and said to the mountain: "Uncle Shan, you and Uncle Shui loosen the soil below, and then pull up such a kudzu vine, press the leaf nodes into the soil, and it will grow more next year." The kudzu root comes out."

Shan nodded happily, "Okay, I'll call Uncle Shui and Uncle Chong over here, and teach us carefully."

Yao Xiaoqing asked them to dig loose the soil under the leaf nodes first, put the leaf nodes on the loose soil, dig the soil and press it on top to wait for it to take root.

She recalled that it would take nearly a month for the leaf nodes to take root again, so go back and record them, and just cut them off when the time comes.

Watching the three of them press down a few leaf knots, Yao Xiaoqing looked at the mountain, "Uncle Shan, if you see yams and sweet potatoes in the future, remember to dig them up and plant them in the ground."

Shan nodded and said: "We know that thing, we dig it and plant it when we see it."

Yao Xiaoqing returned to the yard from the foot of the mountain, and saw that the peeled black bear skin had been supported by bamboo strips and hung on the fence to dry.

Several people were using stone knives to dismember black bears, watching them use stone knives to cut off the meat piece by piece and put them on the stone board.

Seeing Yao Xiaoqing's return, Xie and Mu Feng walked towards her with two bear paws and walked towards her with a smile.

Mu Feng held up the bear's paw in one hand, and held a bear's gall that had been drained of bile in the other, "Xiaoqing, you said that bear's bile and bear's paw are good things, here you are, we'll keep them for you. Do you want to Is it delicious?"

Yao Xiaoqing glanced at the two of them and thought: They are foodies, they don't have any seasonings, and they can't even suppress the fishy smell. Can it be delicious?It is better to concoct it first, and then do it when there are seasonings.

The method of processing is read in the Chinese medicine ceremony that my father bought. Clean the claws and hair, paste it with soil and dry it in the shade.

But what happened to the bear bile?The bile is gone, is bear bile still bear bile?

"Brother, keep the bear's paw, throw away the gall!"

After hearing this, Mu Feng threw the bear bile skin into the outer forest, and said with a smile, "I just said it! How can something so bitter be a good thing."

He looked at the bear's paw in his hand, showing a slanderous expression, "Xiaoqing, will you make bear's paw for us to eat tonight?"

"Brother 彘, this thing has to be dried for a few days before it can be eaten. You should clean up the fine hairs and claws on the bear's paws first, and put them there until I come back."

She nodded in disappointment, "Xiao Qing, what are you going to do?"

Seeing his disappointed look, Yao Xiaoqing smiled secretly.

"Uncle Shan and the others came back after digging some kudzu roots. I want my brother to accompany me to wash the kudzu roots by the ditch at the bottom of the mountain."

Pueraria!She knew that what she was talking about was something like a tree root, and it tasted like eating a tree root, not tasty at all.He took the two bear paws from Mu Feng's hand, waved his hand and said, "You guys go! I'll go for the bear paws."

Seeing that he was not interested at all, Yao Xiaoqing laughed.

The brothers and sisters ate something, carried the kudzu root to the ditch, pulled a handful of grass and began to wash the kudzu root.

Mu Feng took one and asked: "Xiaoqing, what do you do after washing it? Is it delicious?"

"It's delicious to make kudzu root powder. It's a bit troublesome. Wash it, peel it, cut it into pieces, put it in a bucket and mash it, add water and knead it a few times, filter out impurities, change the water a few times, and the kudzu root powder will settle down. The kudzu root powder can be Add duck eggs and wild vegetables to make pancakes, and you can also fry them..."

After hearing this, Mu Feng became more motivated, and said with a smile, "If you had said kudzu root was delicious earlier, the pig would rush to wash it."

Yao Xiaoqing smiled and said, "Let him wash all the kudzu roots dug in the future."

The brothers and sisters talked and laughed, washed the kudzu root, carried it back to the yard, cut it with a stone axe and put it in a basket.Yao Xiaoqing put the pieces of kudzu root into the barrel, asked Mu Feng to find two wooden sticks, and pulled the pig to pound the kudzu root one at a time.

She paste a layer of mud on the bear's paws that he picked up, hang them on the fence to dry, and began to think of a way to filter the kudzu root powder.Going back to the bamboo shed, I took out two cotton kips and looked at them. I felt that kudzu powder could not be filtered out from the fine cotton kips, so I put the kips back resentfully.
