Being fooled by fierce beasts to travel through the beginning is fleeing famine

This is all their subconscious reaction. Whenever something unusual appears, they feel that it must be related to some spirits or treasures, and they want to explore it.

It's definitely not possible when they live in the Yang family now. After all, it's not safe to go underground in the mountains. They might encounter some dangers. They are here as guests. If anything happens, they can't afford it. , so even if you want to go, you have to leave openly and then come back secretly to explore by yourself.

This saves others from worrying about them and allows them to explore without having to pay attention to the time they come out.

Of course, you can also let Chou Chou directly use his spiritual consciousness to explore, and then tell them the results when he has the results, but this kind of thing still feels more fun if you are immersed in it.

After a while, since they had this fish to eat at noon, they were not ready to go back to get the net to catch the fish, and walked directly to the other side of the river.

During this period, Qingyan took a lot of photos under the cover of Chou Chou and Jin Jin, while Qing Zhu pestered Yang Qiaoer and her brother asking questions to create opportunities for them.

Across the river are patches of paddy fields, which were reclaimed by some families on the edge of the town. They are already cultivating rice seedlings, and they will probably be transplanted soon.

There are many mulberry trees not far from the rice field. Yang Qiaoer said that they were planted by people who raise silkworms in the town to feed the silkworms with mulberry leaves.

This rice field also belongs to their family. They bought it from the town. Otherwise, they can't plant it casually. It would be a mess if everything was like this.

There were some things planted there, but they couldn't see them just after they sprouted, so they didn't walk over to avoid trampling on other people's things.

They just walked along the river, and when the sun fully rose, they went back. They also had to go to Yang Wu's house to help prepare lunch. They were late and they were already busy, so what help could they get?

They controlled the time just right. Just after arriving home, they helped feed the two horses, washed their faces, and then carried the things to the next door together.

As soon as they entered the yard, they saw a energetic little old lady and a capable middle-aged woman washing dishes, while Yang Wu was sharpening a knife by a well not far away.

"Third aunt, fifth brother, fifth sister-in-law, we are here. We will trouble fifth sister-in-law for today's lunch."

This is Mr. and Mrs. Yang Pingan.

"Third Grandma, Fifth Uncle, Fifth Uncle, here we come!"

This is Yang Qiaoer's sister and brother.

"Grandma Yang, Fifth Uncle Yang, and Fifth Aunt Yang are causing trouble today."

The three of them quickly put down what they were doing and stood up. Old Mrs. Yang smiled and said, "Don't bother me, don't bother me. When you come here, treat it like your own home. Don't let anyone see you outside."

Sister-in-law Yang Wu also nodded in agreement, "That's right, that's right, don't be so polite. It's fate that you can come to us. Our place is too remote, but the people here are very hospitable. Since you are here, you must treat us well."

You guys come in and sit down quickly. It's a mess outside. I'll clean it up in a while and I'll go in and chat with you. "

After saying that, he said to Mrs. Hu and Yang Qiaoer: "You also go in and accompany me. You are not needed here. They are all ready-made and will be ready in a moment."

Of course Qingyan and the others didn't listen. They came here in advance to help, so there was no way they could sit inside the house.

Qingyan stepped forward and placed the wine jar she was carrying on the stone table in the yard, and said with a smile: "We were told not to be polite just now, but now Fifth Aunt herself is being polite.

We are just here to help, and we also want to learn from you. If we can learn even a little bit of your skills, then we won’t have to worry about not being able to cook delicious food..."

"Oh! This little girl not only looks like a fairy, but her little mouth is also very sweet. She is really good at talking. Your parents and brothers must be as if they are soaking in a honey pot every day..."

Sister-in-law Yang Wu looked at Qingyan with fondness on her face. She had given birth to three brats, just like she wanted a daughter, so she loved the pretty little girl very much when she saw her. She was also very nice to Yang Qiaoer. What's so delicious about her? It was so fun that I couldn’t help but take her with me.

Needless to say, although Qingyan's appearance is not sweet and cute, she is very beautiful and aura, and her temperament is elegant and elegant, which makes people fall in love with her at first sight.

Especially when she wanted to make people happy, she really had it at her fingertips. No, not long after that, she became familiar with Mrs. Yang and Yang Wu’s mother-in-law, and she made them want to get married to her. .

Fortunately, he remembered in time that the other party wouldn't be able to stay here for a few days. He was just here to have fun and would be leaving soon, so he didn't bring it up.

But even so, the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law held Yanyan in her arms and kept telling her interesting things here, and also listened to Qingyan tell them about outside things.

After that, they were no longer so polite and polite, and started to divide the work and cooperate directly. The men went to kill chickens and fish, and Yang Wu happened to have sharpened the knife.

Women are the ones who light the fire, those who cook the food, those who pick the vegetables, and those who choose the vegetables.

Qingzhu Qingyan and Yang Qiaoer were assigned to pick vegetables. The three little girls were not required to do the cooking, and the smoke stained their clothes.

This vegetable is grown in the backyard of Yang Wu's family. It looks like it has just been picked. There is still dew on the leaves, which makes it very fresh.

It's also relatively clean. Just pinch off the roots. There won't be any yellow leaves at all. After selecting. Put it in a small bamboo basket, go to the well to get water, wash it twice in a wooden basin and it will be clean.

After doing this, there was no other work for them to do. Sitting there was too boring, so they ran to the well to watch Yang Wu and Yang Pingan kill the resident fish.

The pheasants were killed and cleaned by Chou Chou and Huang Jin, and they had already been taken into the kitchen to eat mushrooms.

They carefully observed the way they killed the fish to see if there were any specific techniques that could ensure the taste of the fish. Needless to say, it really doesn't look like the usual way of killing fish. Qingyan has seen fish being killed in supermarkets. They always beat the fish unconscious first, then pick out the gills, disembowel the fish and scrape the scales.

This fish has no scales. The step of scraping the scales can be omitted. Instead of knocking it out with a knife, the head is chopped off and the other end is thrown away. Then the contents of the stomach are kept except for the gall. The fish The fins and tail were also cut off.

There were four in total, and they were all killed. This was done at once.

Qingyan looked at the fish head thrown aside and found that after it was chopped off, it quickly changed from the cold white color to gray black!
This process is very short, almost chopping it off, that is, within ten seconds after the fish dies, the fish head changes color.

However, the fish's body was just soaked in the water, and there was no change. Qingyan looked a little confused, could it be because it was soaked in the water?
That's what she thought, so she asked.

And I was thinking in my mind that the fish head should not be eaten, and the fish deteriorated and smelled very quickly after leaving here. Could it be related to the fish head?
If the fish head is removed and only the fish body is made into dried fish or smoked, will it be able to be stored?

I thought I could give it a try later and receive it directly into the space, and I would know if it works.

After hearing this, Yang Ping'an and the other two took a look at the fish heads, smiled and replied to her: "The fish heads are inedible, there is no meat, and they can't be bitten at all.

Our ancestors have tried it. If the whole fish is cooked together, whether it is steamed or stewed, the fish head will only become harder as it is stewed. Over time, it will even become like a stone, and it will also affect the fish. The taste of meat on the body.

It will be very fishy, ​​and no matter what seasonings are put in, the fishy smell cannot be removed. Later, I just chop off the fish head and just cook the fish body.

Not only is it not fishy at all, it also tastes more delicious, and it doesn’t take so long to stew. As long as the water is boiled and put in, it will be cooked in a while. As long as the color of the fish becomes lighter, it can be taken out of the pot, or even No need to add any seasonings, just add some salt and it will be delicious.

Not to mention stewing it, the flavor will be absorbed very quickly. Just mix the sauce, add water, put the fish in and simmer for a while. Then you can soak it in the soup for a while to let the flavor absorb and eat it. When speaking, your mouth will be fragrant.

The bones of this fish can also be eaten without spitting out the spines. Therefore, men, women, and children here like to eat this fish, and they will catch some from time to time. Fortunately, there are very many fish, and there will be no shortage of them no matter how hard we catch them. Eat sparingly. "

What he didn't say is that the people in this Huanshan Town are usually very healthy. Not only do they all live long lives, but they also live longer than people outside, and they almost never get sick from birth to death.

It's not like there haven't been people who have gone out to work hard in recent years. Many of them have made a fortune outside, but they came back because of poor health. After returning for a few years, their health miraculously improved.

So the people here thought it was because of the good feng shui here, and they were unwilling to move out. To be honest, if it weren't for the fact that this place was too remote and difficult to get in and out, it's impossible to say that many dignitaries would come to settle here. .

At first, they all thought that this place had good Feng Shui, until one family didn't like to eat fish, or even hated it. They had never eaten fish. That family's health was obviously not good, and they could even get sick while working in the fields in the summer. heat.

This was something that had never happened to other people like them, so everyone guessed that their health was probably related to this fish, especially if they grew up eating it, their health would be better, so these people would eat it every other day. , if it weren’t for the fact that there were so many fish, they seemed to be inexhaustible, otherwise they would probably be hidden as treasures.

Although Qingyan didn't know what Yang Ping'an was thinking, she still had some guesses. She even thought that the underground river or cave where the fish grew had some kind of mine treasure, otherwise it would be impossible to raise such a magical fish. fish.

Of course, she wasn't talking about greed and wanted to take the treasure as her own. She was just a little curious and wanted to see what the reason was. If there really was a treasure, they wouldn't touch it. After all, they were there before. This place must have been someone's creation, so it wouldn't be a sin for them to take it away.

But if it's something like a spirit stone vein, they won't be too polite and will take some of it away, as long as it doesn't affect their normal life and doesn't change the situation here.

Chou Chou and the others also came out of the kitchen and sat next to us, watching Yang Pingan and the others clean up the fish, and chatting by the way.

"Fifth sister-in-law has already stewed the pheasant. She said that the pheasant is still young when it starts laying eggs. It doesn't take much time to stew. Just put the mushrooms in and stew for a while to get the flavor. Eh? The fish head has turned this color? "

"This fish is like this. You can't eat the head. The more you cook it, the harder it gets and the fish meat becomes very fishy. We generally don't eat it.

The local fish we have is a good thing, but it’s a pity that we can’t take it out. It stinks as soon as we leave the town. Otherwise, we would have to ask you to take some away. "

Yang Wu cleaned the fish in his hand and replied to Chou Chou.

Almost twenty minutes later, Mrs. Hu came out and said the chicken was ready, and then took the fish into the kitchen.

After a while, a domineering fragrance wafted out. The smell was really amazing. It was so fragrant that they didn't even bother to chat, and kept looking at the kitchen door. "

Didn't they pick up a lot of wild eggs before? They also brought some over. They happened to have wild leeks fried with eggs. The taste must be very fragrant.

I have to say that Sister-in-law Yang Wu's cooking skills are really amazing. Qingyan looked at it with her spiritual consciousness and found that the seasonings used were all the same, and she didn't see anything surprising about the heat she mastered. But the dishes she cooked were It is full of color, flavor and taste, so delicious that you can't wait to devour your own tongue.

Especially the four overseas fish, which are divided into two ways: two are cooked, two are steamed, and two are braised. The taste is really amazing.

The steamed one was okay, I only ate the fish, but the two braised ones not only had all the fish and bones, but also didn’t even leave any soup, so they were used directly to mix rice!
What is particularly worth mentioning is that the bones of the fish are indeed edible, just like brittle bones that break into pieces with a light bite.

And there are no small thorns in the meat, only a bone in the middle, which becomes transparent after being cooked, a bit like the sturgeon Qingyan had eaten before, and the bones can also be eaten directly.

If the appearance of this fish wasn't so different from that of a sturgeon, she would have thought it was a type of sturgeon.

After the meal, they helped clear the table and washed the dishes together. Then they returned to the yard next door. After working all morning, they had to let everyone take a rest. It wasn't like they didn't have time to chat, and it wasn't like they were there right away. Go, there are plenty of opportunities.

And they also had to go back and take a nap. The sky was very sunny today, and the sun was very strong, which made people feel a little hot.
