Reborn Nongmen Merchant Concubine

Chapter 68 Mountain Pepper or Wild Pepper

After the Li family settled down, Mengxiong took Mengyuan to the mountain with spices.He also only memorized roughly, not very clearly.Like their family, they couldn't even solve the problem of food and clothing in the stomach, and it was useless to ask for these spices, so they didn't remember it specially.

Because it is closer to the afternoon, the temperature in the mountains will always be cooler.Mengyuan followed her father's back while her two big eyes kept turning around, trying to find something good from the ground, and she went back.

"Meng Ya, this is the mountain pepper tree, and those who are useful in the village will come here to pick some back to make seasoning, mint, under that tree."

Mengxiong pointed to a small tree more than three meters high and said that he just heard from the villagers that the things growing on this tree were spicy and spicy, similar to the taste of pepper.

Knowing that the taste is similar to that of chili, but few people would pick it up and eat it as chili.

Mengyuan looked at the round and plump mountain peppers hanging on the branches, and her heart was surging.However, the next question is a bit difficult.

The growth cycle of mountain pepper is flowering from March to May, and fruiting from July to August. Now it is mid-June, that is, there is still half a month before the fruiting period. Will I be unable to eat it now?Huh, if I knew it earlier, she should have read more books in biology class to learn more about the growth cycle of these animals and plants and the advantages and disadvantages of edibles.

"Father, they are so small, can we pick them up and eat them?"

She doesn't understand, her father, a man in the mountains, should understand, right?But... she really thought too much.

"I don't know. Few people pick this stuff. Everyone doesn't like its smell. It's too numb."

Mengxiong's answer made [-] grass-mud horses gallop deep in her heart, woo woo... Don't play with her like this, she just wants to eat a snail, just want to eat a snail.

Not sure whether the mountain peppers that haven't reached the fruiting stage are edible, Meng Yuan took the next best thing and picked up some mint.Not reconciled in my heart, I turned around the mint place a few times.

If it doesn't turn around, it will be a big loss. Around the mint, there are actually a few wild salamanders that have borne fruit but are not yet ripe.

Haha, I'm really sleepy, someone gave me a pillow!

"Father, hold it for me. I'm going to pick some wild peppercorns. This thing is different from peppercorns, but it's much hotter than the peppers we grow ourselves. I just picked them and threw a few into the sauce. The taste is even better in the radish jar!"

Most of the pickled things like to put this kind of wild sansan pepper, which is very spicy, and the things soaked with wild sansan pepper are much more fragrant than those soaked with ordinary chili.

Mengxiong habitually took the things that his daughter handed over. He didn't know, how did a daughter who had never been out of the gate a few times in his own house, let alone walked around the village, know this?
Before he could react, she already knew that those plants were peppers. Could it be that his daughter became enlightened after being injured?

Mengxiong is troubled by a series of problems of his own, but Mengyuan can't control him or anything.At this moment, she is wandering back and forth among these pepper trees!

what to do?She really wanted to move them to her own vegetable garden, so that she could pick them when she needed them, so her parents wouldn't have to worry that it would be unsafe for her to go up the mountain alone.
