Mountain driving career since 1982

Chapter 107 May Shan Caixiang (fourth update)
Spring comes slowly in the Northeast, and even slower in the northerly areas of the Xing'an Mountains.

When Lu Lu went to the mountain in the afternoon, he wanted to take a look at the wooden clips set up on the mountain, and also wanted to pick some wild vegetables.

At this time, it is the time when the young shoots of wild vegetables are vigorously growing, and the picking period is only about half a month.

You can't eat meat every day, vegetables are the guarantee of health.

Lu Lu felt that he, who didn't grow vegetables or eat green leafy vegetables, had to make good use of this time, pick more wild vegetables, blanch and dry them when he came back, and save some of them. In the long winter, he would have have to eat.

Therefore, in the hunting bag, there is also a snakeskin pocket specially prepared for picking wild vegetables.

Along the way, Lu Lu walked very fast.

Looking along the line where the wooden clips are placed, all the set clips have been touched, and two of them did not know what they touched, and they didn't hit anything.

The others were hit, but what was left was mostly leftover fur, which had already been eaten. From the things left on the clips, Lu Lu could tell that three clips hit mice, and two As far as Hubrau (a large shrike in the Northeast), it has also been eaten by wild animals.

The only one that is well preserved is a clip, and the one that was hit was a yellow leather bag.

It's not bad to get a yellow leather child, it's not in vain.

Lu Lu put the clips one by one into the hunting bag, and when he returned, he walked very slowly.

The eyes don't have to search around, just look at the bottom of the feet.

On the gentle slope piled up with ringing leaves and dead branches, the fluffy fresh green must be the best wild vegetables.

Monkey leg vegetables, bracken, among the dead branches and leaves, let go.

By the side of the ravine and river, the fragrance of cucumber and the buds of willow wormwood can be picked vigorously.

In two hours, the snakeskin pocket was full of bags, weighing fifty or sixty catties.

Picking wild vegetables on this mountain is a very high-level thing. As far as the eye can see, they are everywhere, and the more you pick, the more interesting you are.

Filling the bag is a completely unconscious thing.

Back to the basement with a big bag of wild vegetables on his back, Lu Lu took out the wild vegetables from the bag and put them on the table by category.

These things, he didn't soak them in mud to prevent aging, and the picking time was short. He only needed to clean up the sundries and blanch them in water after cleaning.

The filtered honey was no longer dripping, so Lu Lu washed his hands first, tightened the honey dregs wrapped in the gauze, and squeezed out the remaining honey as much as possible until he could no longer squeeze it out with his own strength. Pour the honeydew into a bowl.

Looking at the honey on his hand, which was clear and attractive, he couldn't help sticking out his tongue and licking it a few times, and rubbed his fingers a few times, suddenly remembering the teasing of the woman who went to the basement to eat honey last night, Shocked by the cold, he decisively ran outside to the river to wash off all the honey stained on his hands.

Don't look at the sticky honey sticking to your hands, this thing will disperse when it is put in water, and it can be washed off easily.

Back in the cellar, he put the honey in jars and got four full bottles, and one bottle was only half filled, so he found a small bag and hung it on the wall.

There are a few scattered bees flying around the house, attracted by the aroma of honey.

Lu Lu reached out and grabbed them one by one, holding them empty in the palm of his hand, and let them out of the cellar.

Every bee is a hard-working labor force and cannot be damaged.

Next is the main event.

Lu Lu lit the stove, set up a large iron pot, dug out logs into a wooden barrel with rattan hoops, brought water from the small river, and put half of the pot of water on fire.

While waiting for the water to boil, Lu Lu moved the wild vegetables to the small river, washed them carefully, and then moved them back to the cellar, blanched them, and rinsed them in cold water.

After working for more than an hour, it is finally over.

After the blanched wild vegetables are soaked overnight to remove the bitter taste, these things can be taken out to dry tomorrow.

Thinking of drying in the sun, Lu Lu was stunned for a while.

There is no drying tool!

There are only two or three sacks and snakeskin bags in the cellar, which are not enough to take apart to dry things!

Hmm... I will go to the district tomorrow and bring back some more snakeskin bags.

It will be convenient to take it apart and use it to dry things.

Before I knew it, it was already evening and it was time for dinner.

Since there are so many wild vegetables, tonight's dish is them!

After steaming the corn, Lu Lu took three cloves of garlic and chopped them into minced garlic, chopped the dried chili, put in some suet, sautéed the minced garlic and chili until fragrant, added the sliced ​​monkey leg vegetables, and stir-fried for two After 3 minutes, sprinkle some salt and simply season it out of the pan, and the garlic monkey leg dish is formed.

The willow wormwood buds can be directly used to dip in the sauce, which saves trouble.

Stir-fried bracken with greyhound meat.

Although cucumber fragrance is also a fern plant, it has a natural fragrance of cucumber. In Lu Lu's opinion, the most authentic way to eat it is to make dumplings.

But now it was too late, and he didn't bother to make a fuss, so he cooked an egg soup for the scent of cucumber.

Four kinds of wild vegetables were served on the table, and Lu Lu scooped the steamed corn, and it was quite tasty.

Monkey leg vegetables are crisp and refreshing; Artemisia annua sprouts are slightly bitter, but they have a special flavor; greyhound meat is fried with bracken, and the taste is rich; the cucumber soup is even more delicious.

A table of raw mountain wild vegetables, Lu Lu was more enjoyable than meat. He ate three bowls of corn and rice raw. It was a joy to eat, and he felt comfortable all at once.

Carrying a lantern to feed the four of Yuan Baoniang, and inspecting the three sika deer, Lu Lu returned to the cellar, and went to bed directly after being overstretched. Seeing the crisp scent of cucumbers, Lu Lu made up the noodles and drove away. For the dough, the meat of a few greyhounds was minced and fried with cucumbers to make the stuffing. After making fifty or sixty dumplings, I felt a little sleepy, so I washed and went to bed.

A good night's sleep.

The next morning, just as Lu Lu lit up the lantern and was about to get up, he heard footsteps outside, followed by Chen Xiuqing's voice: "Brother Lu, have you woken up yet?"

"Qingzi, it's so early!"

Lu Lu tilted his head and looked outside through the gap of the small window, it was still dark.

"Hey..." Chen Xiuqing giggled outside.

It was quite cold in the early morning, so Lu Lu threw off the quilt and hurriedly opened the door for him.

As soon as the door was opened, Chen Xiuqing came in sullenly.

What Lu Lu didn't expect was that Chen Xiuyu followed Duantou in.

Lu Lu's eyes met the four eyes of Chen Xiuqing's brother and sister, and the air in the whole cellar suddenly froze.

In the small basement, there is not much space, and the embers of the firewood at night can burn almost until midnight, so the basement is warm.

There was Yuan Bao guarding outside the cellar, and if there was any movement, he would have warned Lu Lv early, and Lu Lv didn't need to worry too much.

So, in May, Lu Lu sleeps at night, almost wearing a vest and a pair of briefs.

He was busy opening the door just now, but he never expected that Chen Xiuyu would follow him!

The next second, Chen Xiuqing made a wrong step and stood in front of Chen Xiuyu, but Chen Xiuyu had already seen it, and turned around in a hurry.

Lu Lu, on the other hand, was relieved after being slightly embarrassed, and put on his clothes in a leisurely manner.

There is only one thought in his mind: see it when you see it, anyway, sooner or later!
