Xanadu space

At noon, Lao Li's grass carp was made into sauerkraut fillets. The white and delicate fish meat was served with pepper, chili, sesame oil, sauerkraut...the color was so beautiful that it made people's index fingers move.

Zhang wanted to catch a lot of white fish, and Peng Yanling picked four or five big ones, fried them golden and crispy, and put them on a large plate. The tempting fish aroma made people salivate !

"Come on, Old Li, Sister Peng sits down and eats!"

Zhang wanted to say hello, but when Li Houtu heard that he was called sister Peng, he paused for a moment, strange, wasn't Zhang Xiang called Peng Yanling's sister-in-law before?

Li Houtu didn't think too much about the delicious dishes on the table, and sat down with Zhang Hongbing, still yelling:

"I almost got drunk to death last night, I can't drink anymore today!"

When talking about getting drunk, Zhang Xiang's face turned a little red. She was in a daze last night, as if she had annoyed Ning Jing. In the end, she even ran upstairs and refused to come down.

It seems that nothing happened at that time, and he can't remember the specifics of the night he slept. I just hope that he didn't do too much!

"It's okay, Xiao Li, I brought the rice wine. I made it myself. You can try it later!"

Jin Chrysanthemum smiled, and took out a few bottles of golden rice wine from the house. Generally, rice wine is made by boiling glutinous rice and cooling it. Then, add some distiller's yeast and mix well. Wrap it with some straw. It will be ready in a day or two at most. can eat.

That kind of rice wine can be used to make sweet soup, with glutinous rice balls, orange cakes, red dates, eggs... It is a great rice wine soup in the countryside, in the past.Only women do this deliberately when they are in confinement!

There is also a kind of rice wine that is served by golden chrysanthemums. The color of the wine is golden yellow, which is called brewing fine wine.

The method of stirring and adding koji to this kind of rice wine is similar, except that the glutinous rice is put into the jar.Add clean water in a certain proportion, and after filling the altar, rice and red yeast rice will rise to the surface of the water due to internal fermentation.

Therefore, every two or three days, stir with a wooden stick.Press the rice, etc. under the water surface, and cover the altar with sackcloth, etc., to make it sink and ferment better.

After more than 20 days of fermentation.There will be a strong aroma of wine in the altar, the alcohol will gradually sink, and the wine will begin to clarify.

Then clarified wine.Put it into a wine jar with a small mouth and a big belly, wrap the mouth of the jar with bamboo leaves, and then cover it with soil to form a cap-like seal.

Fill the wine jar with grain husks and burn the fire to smoke the wine.Make the color gradually change from red to brownish red.After another 30 days or so.You can open the altar to drink.

The longer the storage time, the color of the wine will gradually change from brownish red to golden yellow, becoming fine wine.

Li Houtu looked at the golden color of the rice wine, and heard that it was made by Jin Juhua himself, and his appetite was also whetted, so he said with a smile:

"Since Auntie made it, let's all try it!"

The rice wine does not have a pungent wine taste at the entrance, and the wine is thick and sweet.The mellow aroma was so delicious that Li Houtu couldn't help but give it a thumbs up!

Zhang Xiang also likes to drink this kind of rice wine very much.When I was a child and my younger brother were at home, I used to secretly drink it while the adults were away. Once I drank too much, and the two of them fell asleep in the straw pile, and it was a good meal to be beaten by the golden chrysanthemum!

At noon, he ate the fish he caught and drank the rice wine brewed by the farm. Li Houtu and Zhang Xiang chatted with them. He thought that the delicious rice wine had a low alcohol content, but he still felt dizzy after eating. .

"No, this rice wine is delicious, and it will make you drunk. I'm going to take a nap!"

Li Houtu opened a room in the farm, and he went back to rest after eating.

Zhang wanted to remember where he saw it on the pontoon bridge in the morning. His lotus leaves were broken a lot. Now that Li Houtu went back to the house to rest, he just had time to go to Daoshan to have a look!

When he set foot on the island again, Zhang Xiang felt that there was something wrong with the island. After looking at it for a long time, he suddenly realized.

"Oh, the grass here is trampled a lot, isn't it usually like this?"

Zhang Xiang looked at the dense and neat grass, which was stepped on in a mess, and many places fell to the ground in pieces, making it a mess.

He looked along the trampled grass, and it really came up along the lotus leaves by the small island. There were obvious traces inside, but he didn't know whether it was a human or a beast?

Zhang Xiang turned his face down and walked around the island again. He remembered that he picked up a lot of eggs last time. This time he deliberately searched in the haystack!

He found that in many nests that hens crawled over, although one or two feathers were occasionally seen and left in the haystack, there were no eggs in the nests.

Of course, there are exceptions. Occasionally, there are only one or two eggs in one or two hidden nests, and no nest contains more than three eggs.

Seeing these, Zhang figured it out. The things that came to the island were aimed at the eggs scattered here. As for those chickens and rabbits, Zhang thought he didn't have a specific number, so he really didn't know!

He turned around the island and saw that the rabbits and pheasants were still there, but he didn't know if they had decreased.Sighing, Zhang wanted to divert the river water in the space to the sunken bluestone slab.

The water in the space is very attractive to those animals. Zhang Xiang also tried to taste the water, but he always felt that there was nothing special about it except sweetness.

In addition, he raises a lot of fish species in the river, and sometimes takes a bath in it, and he always feels a kind of psychological barrier. Asking him to drink the river water always feels weird!

Crowds of rabbits came hopping, and the pheasant also flew away, as if being chased by someone, "poof" darted over!

"The number hasn't changed much, so why are there more pheasants?"

Zhang wanted to look at it, but the rabbit didn't feel it. There were a lot of pheasants, but there were four more pheasants, and they were still the kind of pheasants with very beautiful tails!

The pheasant has a white feather ring on its neck, green on the top of its head, bright red crest on its cheeks, purple-gold and shiny chest, green back, and horizontal stripes on its wings.

The tail feathers are slender and about [-] to [-] centimeters long, and there are about [-] to [-] black horizontal stripes. It looks very beautiful, and it may be called the male ring-necked pheasant.

And those native chickens struggled to come to the stone slab to drink water. They may be heavy and have poor flexibility. They are far from grabbing the dozen or so pheasants.

Zhang wanted to throw Xiao Hei out of space and leave him on this small island. This guy is very powerful. With him around, he might be able to catch the thief who stole the eggs!

Finding nothing on the island, Zhang Xiang went back to the yard, wondering whether it was a human or an animal that passed through the lotus leaves on the lake!

There are two or three eggs in some nests, which means that the thief who steals eggs does not come every day, but every two or three days.

The egg thief didn't pass over the pontoon, even in the small yard, he didn't notice it with the door open. It didn't seem like he was on land, and he let the bean sprouts out, and he knew every time there was a movement!

Something in the water, who knows what it might be?If you don't catch it, it will be a disaster if you throw the eggs on this island. Besides, the eggs are lost today, who knows what will be lost tomorrow?

The most important thing is that the island is not safe anymore, Zhang Xiang is worried that the secret of the space will be discovered.But there is no rush for this matter, we can only pay attention slowly.

Li Houtu went back to sleep in the house, and he had nothing to do, so he simply went back to the third floor, sat on the balcony for a while, and then entered the Taoyuan space.

The most conspicuous thing in the space is the place where the clematis is planted. The fresh stems of those clematis are smooth and hairless, with obvious longitudinal fiber stripes.

Pinnate compound leaves opposite, pink-green smooth, narrowly ovate to triangular-ovate, apex obtuse or acuminate, base cuneate or round, entire, with hairs along the veins above.

The seedlings of Clematis are more than 30 centimeters high, and they crawl everywhere on the ground. It seems that they need to build supports.

Tomatoes are grown on the black soil this time, because tomatoes are afraid of drought and waterlogging, so Zhang wants to check every time he enters the space to see if the humidity on the ground is too high!

Red tomatoes hung all over the vines like lanterns. Because there were too many and heavy, the branches of those tomatoes fell down. Zhang wanted to find a branch and tie the branch with a rope!

I picked a tomato weighing half a catty, washed it in the river water, took a bite, and the sour and sweet tomato juice overflowed from my mouth!

"The taste of these tomatoes is really good, take out some scrambled eggs to eat at night!"

Speaking of eggs, Zhang Xiang ran to the grassland, because time passed quickly in the space, and the chickens on the grassland laid several piles of eggs. Those eggs were not only big, but all of them were double-yellow and had a special taste. pure.

There are also those rabbits that reproduce very quickly. With the passage of space and time, they will become a litter of little rabbits in a few days. If the grassland has not expanded a lot last time, these little rabbits may have nothing to eat!

Zhang wanted to keep the vegetables and eggs in the space for himself to eat. Occasionally, if there were too many, he would give them to others. Because the food in the entrance was good, not only his parents were in good health, but even his uncle hadn’t had a cold these days!

The fish in the river grow very fast. The red-faced army fish that Zhang Xiang bought at the beginning, swimming leisurely in the water, have grown into big guys weighing thirty to forty kilograms.

Quite a few catties of salamanders climbed onto the rocks from time to time, and those turtles and turtles were small in three or four catties. When I cleared the bottom of the lake last year, I caught the big-faced turtle happily chasing it under the water. fish and shrimp.

Zhang Xiang just stayed by the river for a while, and saw many old friends he bought or caught with his own hands. Seeing that they have grown up one by one, he felt very gratified!

After staying in the space for a long time, Zhang Xiang just came out. It was still early for dinner, so he took a walk by the lake.

At this time, something on the lake caught his attention!Zhang Xiang squinted his eyes, his heart skipped a beat! (to be continued..)
