Blessed wife descends from heaven

Chapter 56

With the title deed, Lin Baozhu grinned at night when she slept, and even woke up twice from her dreams.But when she woke up, she shrank her neck and saw that there was no sound from Zhang Mandun, so she fell asleep happily again.

It's just that she looks like a little fox, but she didn't hide it from Zhang Mandun's eyes because of the darkness in the room.Thinking that his daughter-in-law is so childish, Zhang Mandun felt strange for a while.

After getting the paperwork, Lin Baozhu was full of confidence this time.Taking advantage of the time when the frying was over, let Zhang Mandun accompany him to wander around the top of the mountain.She hadn't visited this mountain full of tea trees before to grab the time to pick them.

Now she hasn't realized that, apart from her own thoughts, she and Zhang Mandun are living together like an old married couple.Now even going up the mountain, I want to let him accompany, otherwise I feel uneasy.

This kind of dependence and trust makes Zhang Mandun especially like and cherish it.Zhang Mandun took his wife's hand and walked up the relatively flat terrain, because no one came to the top of the mountain all year round, so it was very barbaric, with weeds and geezers growing.Branches and branches are everywhere, and even some streams can only hear the sound but not see the whole picture.

In summer, there are already many mosquitoes, not to mention the mountains full of weeds.Fortunately, Zhang Mandun felt sorry for his daughter-in-law, so he asked her to wear long-sleeved clothes in advance, and put a layer of gauze on her straw hat.

This is what he saw when he was walking darts. Some ladies are very particular, and they will wear such hats when they go out.Although he is reckless, but now he has made his daughter-in-law a lot more skillful in training, so he made a simple veiled cap for her to keep mosquitoes out in just a few clicks.

Lin Baozhu saw that as she went to the top of the mountain, the branches grew more and more difficult to walk, so she followed her husband along the stream flowing down the mountain and the stones beside it, feeling better.Slowly approaching the top of the mountain, the road is actually wider. Although there are still no people, the water flow on the top is obviously much stronger, and the sand and stones on the side have paved the road.

Although the road was a bit trembling and difficult, it did not prevent Lin Baozhu from looking for useful objects along the way.Now that she was on the top of the mountain, she actually saw a lot of things that made her feel excited.

Not to mention those delicious wild vegetables, but the wild beans and wild grapes on the hillside, and the eagle tea that grows fangs and claws in the sunny place, all made her very happy.

Seeing that the terrain was getting flatter, she simply let go of her man's hand, and carefully took two leaves of eagle tea to taste.Sweetness and bitterness bring coolness, which is really a good thing.

If the white cockscomb picked before is the best tea, it is for rich and noble people to taste tea and preach when they have nothing to do.Then this eagle tea is a must-have for ordinary people in summer.

Speaking of which, the processing of eagle tea is different from other teas. The easiest way is to dry it directly in the sun. However, although it maintains its original flavor, the taste is too bitter for ordinary people, and some people even think it is a bit harsh.

Back then Lin Baozhu had nothing to do to figure out how to fry this kind of tea, but it was also because of unintentional over-frying, which caused the tea leaves in the pot to become mushy when it was finished.Originally, she felt sorry that a pot of tea was ruined by herself, but she didn't know that after rubbing it a little, she found that the softened eagle tea branches and leaves had a mellow tea fragrance.

Later, she imitated the method of smoking and eating by the fellow villagers in Sichuan, put the fried and mushy tea leaves into bamboo utensils, and smoked them with firewood for a few days.Originally, I thought that if I couldn't brew it for tea, I would use the smoked tea to smoke the bacon.But I didn't want to make such a toss, but it made the originally bitter and unpleasant eagle tea taste different.

Compared with other teas, it is soft and fragrant, and has a thicker taste.And because it is old tea, the tea is astringent first and then sweet, with a strong taste and strong mouthfeel.However, if you drink it in summer, you will feel more refreshed and refreshed.

At that time, Eagle Tea has been popular for a long time, especially when people eat greasy food such as hot pot and barbecue, they like to drink several bowls of Eagle Tea.

Later, when she got older, she looked for new teas for frying tea, and also read some books like "Compendium of Materia Medica" that recorded hundreds of herbs.Only then did I discover that Eagle Tea actually has the effects of "relieving cough, eliminating phlegm, relieving asthma, relieving summer heat and quenching thirst".

There are a lot of gravel on the mountain, and there are also a lot of branches and weeds, but with Zhang Mantun, naturally he won't let his daughter-in-law go to those places.

When he reached the top of the mountain, Lin Baozhu smelled a strong fragrance from a long distance, and went up a little further along the road, but saw a tree that was more than one meter thick and covered half of the top of the mountain.It would be fine if it was just an old tree, but this tree is a full-grown Eagle tea tree. Looking at Lin Baozhu from a distance, he estimated that it was more than a hundred years old.

Perhaps it has been exposed to the wind and the sun all year round, and the tea tree has become a climate. The leaves on the tree are more intense in color and smell than the eagle tea on the mountainside.Lin Baozhu lifted the gauze on her hat to block the sunlight and looked up. On the tall and thick tea tree in the middle, the leaves were dark green, and the bark like leopard prints on the branches were looming. The whole tea tree was lush and green. Well, looking at it makes people feel cool.

She was originally a tea maker, and she could see the value of the tea tree in front of her at a glance.Although compared to the mother plant of the white chicken crown at the foot of the mountain, although this Eagle tea is not expensive, it is still a rare good tea.

Lin Baozhu, who was stunned for a moment, couldn't help showing surprise on his face after looking at the tea tree.

Thinking about how refreshing and appetizing this Eagle tea is, she began to feel itchy, wishing she could pick a pack right away.Thinking like this, Lin Baozhu cautiously stepped on the weeds and walked over there. She said she was cautious, but in fact she was not slow.

Zhang Mantun was frightened watching from the side, fearing that his daughter-in-law would trip over a tree branch without saying a word, so he naturally helped her open the way with a sickle.

The two of them picked for about a quarter of an hour. According to Lin Baozhu's request, they picked and folded the twigs and made a basket.If this weight is successfully fried, it will have to weigh two or three catties.

Although she didn't know how much the tea could be sold at a tea shop if she roasted the tea herself, she was still happy to meet a century-old tea tree.Even if the tea cannot be sold at a good price, Lin Baozhu is confident that the tea will not be sold.

After all, even if the tea shop doesn't value it, wouldn't there still be tea shops and taverns?Then there are some stalls selling herbal tea, after all, they won't fall into their hands.

When leaving the mountain, Lin Baozhu felt that she was in high spirits.Unexpectedly, buying a mountain for 500 taels turned out to be full of treasures.And Zhang Mandun, who followed behind, saw his daughter-in-law's happy look, and felt relaxed and joyful in his heart. In his opinion, nothing is as worthy of celebration as his daughter-in-law smiling.

Not long after, the two arrived at the mountainside, picked some old leaves of white cockscomb, and then went home.

In the middle of the morning in summer, it was hot as soon as the sun came out.When Lin Baozhu and his wife came out of the mountain, they met many people who went to the field when the sky was slightly bright and the sun was still not strong.At this moment, the sky was too scorching and they panicked, so they didn't try to dig the ground any more, and walked back cheerfully in groups of three or four with their hoes on their shoulders.

The corn in the field has been lighted, and the beans and potatoes entangled in the corn field have been dug up in the past few days. The rest depends on whether the rain will be given by God, which is the so-called dependence on the sky.In the next few days, if the land is not repaired, it will be time for the men of each family to go out to work again.

After greeting people and asking about the work in the field, the two arrived home.

Lin Baozhu asked Zhang Mandun to put the newly picked tea leaves into the Westinghouse where they were drying green, and then scooped up water to wash his hands.After finishing the work, he told Zhang Mandun to rest for a while, while he found a few handfuls of tea and went back to the kitchen to get busy.

The two of them had a great time eating fried spicy rabbit meat last time. Thinking of being happy today, she planned to stew the rest of the rabbit meat.

When she got up early and left, she was hairy, but now it looks good, thinking that there is no dry food at home, so she simply dug a bowl of white noodles and steamed tea to make cakes.

After thinking about it for a while, Lin Baozhu started to get busy. She mixed the dough first.Seeing that the dough became shiny and didn't stick to your hands at all, I put some brewed tea and tea.In an instant, the white and tender dough took on some other colors, but it was gratifying to look at.

She has been here for a few months, and she has long been used to doing these things, and she has learned the necessary cooking skills from her fellow villagers.So naturally she didn't find it difficult to steam the fat cake. She waited until the white and fat pasta was put into the steaming pot before she freed her hands to pick up the small plate of rabbit meat.

This time she was stewed rabbit meat. By the way, she picked up a bowl of fine white rice and put it in the basin, then poured the leftover tea into it and steamed it.Thinking about pouring rice with the stewed fragrant, glutinous, soft and rotten rabbit meat and broth, she couldn't help touching her hungry stomach.

Seeing that everything that should be put into the pot has been put away, and the tea cakes in the big pot are also fragrant.The fragrance of the tea, mixed with the sweetness of the grain noodles, made people salivate uncontrollably.

Even Zhang Mandun, who was drying the quilt after fetching water outside, was attracted to look at the kitchen several times.

Lin Baozhu didn't delay at all, she pressed the hair cake and saw that it bounced, she knew it was fully cooked.So I lifted the grate down, and by the way, cut it into pieces with a freshly cleaned kitchen knife and hung it up to dry.

"Daughter-in-law, what should I do?" Seeing that there was nothing else to do, Zhang Mandun leaned over and asked.The current him is still the vicious man who is full of evil spirits and makes people feel frightened when they look at him.In front of his own wife, he became more and more open-minded. Although his words and deeds were considered appropriate, he always became childish from time to time.

Lin Baozhu broke off a small piece of hair cake and stuffed it into his mouth, and said with a smile, "Yes, let me help you taste how it tastes." After speaking, she still looked at him with bright eyes, as if waiting for praise.
