Chapter 26 Cooking
The two most lacking things in the farmhouse are oil and salt. Zhen Zhen looked helplessly at the little bit of oil left in the clay pot, and then at the salt bumps on the side of the stove, which were only the size of a fist. Mei told her to use it sparingly, as their family planned to use it until Chinese New Year!

Zhen Zhen twitched the corners of her mouth helplessly again, the salt lump the size of a fist, will it last until the Chinese New Year?How about a few more months?Such a small amount, even a little bit every day, is not enough!

"Zhen Mei, have you finished everything?"

After the locusts lose their wings, they need to be pickled for a while!
"Okay, sister, so many, we, we..."

Zhen Mei caught so many today, and played with Zhen Yue while catching them. Every time she saw the scene where the locusts were squeezed out of her stomach because of Zhen Yue's excessive strength, she would eat them. Can't go down.

"Don't worry, I promise you will eat all of it later, maybe in the future you will go to the field to catch this thing and ask the second sister to make it for you!" Zhen Zhen teased Zhen Mei, this little girl is too smart, but a little It's not like a six-year-old child, but the disgusted expression looks cuter now!
"Really?"

"Well, really! Besides, we haven't touched meat for a long time, and this is more or less meaty. Okay, after you're done, you can help your mother take care of the fourth and fifth sisters, and the second sister can come here!" In fact, Zhen Zhen worried that Zhen Mei would stop her after seeing her movements, so she wanted to send her away.

Zhen Mei thought for a while, nodded, and went to the back room bouncing around.

Zhen Zhen pickled the locusts, and when she turned her head, she saw the old man's thin face full of vicissitudes, and his eyes were slightly sour.According to her eldest sister Zhen Chun, her father was over sixty years ago, but now at such an age, he has to suffer with his son. Looking at the bones of his body, he probably hasn't eaten delicious food for a long time.It's just that he is more pitiful, unlike her and Zhen Mei, who can tell Fan when they are wronged, but this old man can't even speak.

"Master, you haven't eaten for a long time, right? Don't worry, I ate a lot today, and everyone will be full!" After finishing speaking, Zhen Zhen started to prepare "meal"!Speaking of rice, where can they see half a grain of rice?There were just some beans and sweet potatoes, and there weren't many of those.

After counting the time, she picked up the pickled locusts, put them on the Shake Kei to filter the water, and then poured all the remaining oil in their house cruelly. When the oil was hot, she put the locusts in and fried them repeatedly. Fry until cooked, then scoop out, strain the oil, and pour back into the clay pot.Seeing that there was not much oil missing, Zhen Zhen felt relieved.

There were still some oil stars left at the bottom of the pot, she thought about it, and decided to use the bottom of the pot to make wild vegetables to boil.

After cooking, Zhen Zhen greeted them for dinner.Zhen Mei was the first to rush to the table, and when she saw a pot of golden locusts, the first thought came to her mind, and she hurriedly asked, "Sister, is this really edible?"

Zhen Zhen winked at her, "You'll know if you try one?"

When Fan came out, she saw Zhen Mei carefully picking up a locust, blowing on it, and putting it into her mouth under Zhen Zhen's encouraging eyes.

"Mei'er, you child, your father hasn't come back yet? You just ate it?" Although Fan was talking about Zhen Mei, she didn't actually take any action, she just talked about it.
