Xianggong came from the mountains

Chapter 55 Follow Xia Qinghe to have meat to eat
Xia Qinghe, who stood behind the house and eavesdropped for a while, heard people in the house and didn't talk about her anymore, then went to the gate of the yard and shouted: "Aunt Chu."

Wearing an apron, Mrs. Chu quickly came out of the house, and looked at Xia Qinghe's warm greeting: "Qinghe, hurry up and sit in the yard."

The Chu family opened the courtyard door for Xia Qinghe, Xia Qinghe followed into the courtyard, but saw the Chu family eating in the main room.

"Qinghe, you are too polite, fish and rabbits are so rare, and you asked Dahu to bring us so much." She hasn't eaten meat for a long time, and today she eats delicious dishes, which feel better than New Year's Eve. happy.

Xia Qinghe smiled gently and was very humble: "I just borrowed flowers to offer Buddha, these are Xiao Chu's, I just made a favor, Brother Huzi also helped me so much today, but you also know the people in this village, those who passed on to me The words are already ugly, although I don’t really care, but after all, I still have to be careful, I didn’t leave Brother Huzi to eat, Aunt Chu, go and eat, and I’ll tell you how to make kudzu root after eating.”

At a glance, she saw the kudzu root that had been washed and placed in the basket under the eaves.

Mrs. Chu just finished eating, and Da Huzi also came out of the house at this time.

"Qing He, tell me how to do it." Da Huzi felt that he was full of energy.

It was getting late, Xia Qinghe didn't waste time, and took a kudzu root and beat it on a clean wooden board.

She beat it over and over again and said: "After breaking it, soak it in water and wash it, rub it repeatedly like washing clothes, then filter the water with a cloth first, and wait until the water settles down to become starch, which can be taken out and dried in the sun."

She carefully explained every step of the way, and Chu looked surprised but still had some doubts: "Qinghe, kudzu root can be eaten after making it like this?"

She still felt a little disbelieving, and always felt a little illusory.

When there was a famine before, no one in the village had eaten kudzu root, and they all said they couldn't eat it, so there were a lot of kudzu root in the nearby forest. Now Xia Qinghe said that she could eat it, which surprised her a little.

Xia Qinghe scratched her head in embarrassment: "I said to serve jelly for you before, but Xiao Chu and Xiao Chang liked it so much that they ate it all at once. I forgot, I'll send you some tomorrow morning."

In fact, she was embarrassed because she remembered it when she ate it later, but it was gone.

On the other hand, the big tiger was embarrassed, and he scratched his head foolishly and said: "Don't say that, you brought me so many fish and rabbit meat, our family is all embarrassed."

Xia Qinghe explained the whole process of making it, and watched it get dark and returned home.

The black locust has been buried around the wall by Zhu Xiaochang, he said cheerfully: "Qinghe, tomorrow I will take you to get kudzu, today Da Huzi took me to several places with kudzu, let me tell you where There are many Pueraria lobata, and they are quite big.”

He liked Da Huzi more and more, and felt that Da Huzi had a good heart.

Although he used to play with the teenagers in the village, those people were quite repulsive to him, but now it's different. Since Xia Qinghe had Xia Qinghe, he felt that he was superior to those people, but when he thought of his dead parents and his own The two sisters are still suffering.

After hearing this, Xia Qinghe's eyes lit up and he laughed, feeling extremely happy: "Okay, we'll go to the woods tomorrow."

She is so happy, the villagers don't believe her, so before the villagers find out that this can make money, they dig more and go home to save.

Zhu Xiaochang likes to eat jelly, so he is naturally happy: "Okay, we will go tomorrow, but Xiao Chu can't go with us. Boss Tu seems to want to marry his daughter, so he asked Xiao Chu to help net dozens of fish and send them there, so Xiao Chu will send them over in the past two days. If Chu wants to fish with a net, I’m afraid he won’t have much time to follow us into the mountains.”

He was still a little worried when he said that, because there are many dangers in the mountains and forests.

Xia Qinghe was very happy. Troubling Xiao Chu all this time was not something she wanted to do. She had figured out the rules of the woods. As long as she didn't go to the creek in the evening, she would basically not encounter any animals.

Animals are more vigilant than humans, and they will leave at the slightest sign of trouble, so as long as you are careful, nothing will happen.

She excitedly said: "It's okay, isn't the big tiger going with me tomorrow, and then we can take care of each other, as long as we can dig kudzu roots."

When Xia Qinghe said this, Zhu Xiaochang was in a very good mood, and quickly closed the courtyard door. When he entered the room, he looked at the bedding on his bed and was very excited. Did you buy it for me?"

Xia Qinghe stood at the door and looked at Zhu Xiaochang happy, and felt at ease in her heart. Mrs. Han treated her badly, but she saved her life after all, and Zhu Xiaochang was not bad at all. Now the two of them felt that they were dependent on each other, so much so that she Now he regards Zhu Xiaochang as his family.

She pointed to the cotton-padded clothes and said, "Of course I bought them for you. Tomorrow, I will take off your clothes and take them to the river to wash by myself. I also bought myself a jacket. It's cold, and I'll wait until I make money." Let's go buy one more."

Cotton clothes and quilts are expensive, but fortunately, the quilts are genuine. Although they are more expensive, they are really warm.

Zhu Xiaochang was so excited lying on the bed cheering, Xia Qinghe took down three keys and handed them to Zhu Xiaochang, saying: "This is the key of the house, the kitchen, the courtyard door and the gate, you usually keep it in place and don't lose it. "

The house must be locked. In the future, she will often go to the mountains, and the wild boar is still at home. She can't have to keep people at home all winter. Compared to her, she still likes to make money.

Zhu Xiaochang was very excited, holding the key and fiddling with it in his hand.

Seeing Xia Qinghe's eyes becoming more and more admiring, he decided that he would do whatever Xia Qinghe said in the future, and he would never have other thoughts.

Since coming here, Xia Qinghe has never had a solid night's sleep. Lying on the bed tonight, covered with the quilt she bought, she slept very sweetly for the first time.

Early in the morning, Xiao Chu sent some steamed buns, saying that Boss Tu sent them yesterday. Xia Qinghe was reluctant to eat them, so she cooked a few sweet potatoes and ate them. She put the buns and steamed buns in a basket, and she would go to the mountains later. The plan is to take it to the mountain to eat.

The pork had been smeared with salt and hung in the room where she slept, and the banknotes were placed next to her body. After locking the door, she followed Da Huzi to the woods.

Da Huzi was very excited, and actually produced starch according to Xia Qinghe's method.

His mother was very happy, and was still planning to marry him a wife when he made money in the future. He glanced at Xia Qinghe with flickering eyes, and his thoughts became more and more determined, follow Xia Qinghe to have meat!
