Chapter 102 Locust Plague?

"Go!" Wu Xinhua smiled and pushed Su Dajiang, "Who is afraid? A few bugs are not enough for me to step on!"

"Cut." Su Dajiang shook his head with a smile, took out a pancake from a bag made for him by Sun Lamei, tore off a large piece, and threw it into his mouth.

Wu Xinhua smelled the fragrance, and couldn't help swallowing. The Su family's things are always extraordinarily fragrant: "You don't mind dirty hands?"

"What are you afraid of? You won't get sick if you don't do anything clean, and besides, I feel like I can kill a cow. I'm so strong, but I still get sick?" Su Dajiang said nonchalantly.

Wu Xinhua shook his head, and hurried away from Su Dajiang's side, no, if he smells it any more, it's hard to guarantee that he won't reach out to find Su Dajiang to eat, that would be too ugly!

No one took those locusts seriously.

Two days later.

"What's going on? There are more locusts today than yesterday?" The successive encounters with locusts in the past two days made the people in Xiushui Village feel uneasy.

It's time to harvest rice soon. The destructive power of locusts is really amazing. These things eat almost everything, and wherever they go, there must be light.

However, Xiushui Village has not encountered locust disasters in the past few hundred years, so they don't have a good understanding of this situation.

"That's right, I killed more than a dozen locusts today! I really don't know where these locusts came from!"

"The one with wings, where did you say it came from?"

Everyone laughed, but the uneasiness in their hearts still did not disappear.

Su Jinyu knew that there were locusts in the afternoon of that day.

"Locusts?" Su Jinyu's eyes flickered. Even after so many years, she still clearly remembered the two locust disasters she encountered in her previous life.

For the first time, some places reported that all the locusts went to nowhere. In many places, let alone paying taxes, they didn’t even have food. She spent a lot of effort that year, but she still couldn’t Let those victims escape.

The second time... Thanks to her experience of being forced to go outside, when the second locust plague occurred, she gave an order to prey on all the locusts she could see!
right!Prey!
Locusts are indeed edible!
However, not only in the last life, but still no one knows this.

"Isn't it? That thing looks so ugly, and it's also very harmful!" Su Weihua also heard the adults say that there are obviously more locusts this year than in previous years, so he couldn't help complaining.

"Third Brother." A smile appeared on Su Jinyu's face, Su Weihua and Su Xinghua couldn't help but shudder, this...is this still their sister?

Su Jinyu didn't care about the expressions on the faces of the two brothers, but said: "The taste of the locust is no worse than that of the cicada monkey. Do you want to eat it?"

The cicadas in summer can only be eaten in just a few days, so they look forward to the arrival of summer every year, but... before they have eaten enough cicadas, all cicadas are gone up.

Ok……

After a long time, the cicada monkey becomes a cicada, and the taste...is completely different.

When Su Jinyu said that the taste of locusts was better than cicada monkeys, Su Xinghua immediately salivated. He never thought about how Su Jinyu knew this!

"Really?" Su Xinghua immediately jumped up, "I'm going to look for locusts in the field now!"

Su Jinyu smiled, but did not stop Su Xinghua.

She had seen the spectacular scene of locusts crossing the border in her previous life, and she knew that in a few days, the locusts would fly over in a dense mass, and by then... wherever the locusts went, there would not be a single trace of them left behind. thing!

So, let the people of Xiushui Village know that locusts are a delicious food while it is now. When the time comes... as long as the locusts land on the border of Xiushui Village, it is guaranteed that they will never come back!

Su Weihua was dragged away by Su Xinghua.

then……

At night, the people in Xiushui Village smelled the fragrance that they hadn't smelled since the end of July. When they gathered around the Su family's yard, everyone knew that the smell of locusts was real. good!

The next day, the people in Xiushui Village began to put all the locusts into the baskets they carried with them when they went to work.

Then, under Su Jinyu's suggestion, everyone began to dismantle all the tents used in summer, and made them into a large net, ready to welcome the arrival of locusts.

If they are not willing to tear down the tents now, after the locust plague, it will be a problem whether the village can even eat, so everyone is very active.

On the fourth day, the locusts gradually arrived at the border of the farmland in Xiushui Village.

However, before they started to move, those locusts became a delicacy in the mouths of Xiushui Village.

and so……

After the people in Xiushui Village ate the locust meat for several days, they found that the number of locusts gradually decreased, and in the end it was hard to even see their shadows.

Two days later, when the news came that several surrounding villages had been plagued by locusts, the people in Xiushui Village looked at each other in blank dismay.

Locust plague?

There seems to be no locust plague in their village.

Oh, those locusts... seem to have gone into their stomachs, right?
cough cough...

This year, only Xiushui Village handed in food.

The people above were already a little jealous of the people in Xiushui Village, but now seeing that only Xiushui Village was infested with locusts, they were able to hand in a little bit of food, and they were even more afraid of Xiushui Village.

Because of this, it is much more convenient for Xiushui Village to do anything in the town.

Even the tickets for buying oil and cloth are almost double the previous ones.

Su Jinyu didn't expect this.

However, the people in Xiushui Village didn't have any special reaction to those people's overtures.

In a blink of an eye, it's winter.

Su Jinyu dislikes winter the most.

Not to mention wearing thick clothes, she can't go outside to play. Although she doesn't have to go outside, she just doesn't like winter very much.

"Come on, Niuniu! Let's go ice skating!"

Su Jinyu doesn't like winter, but other children like it very much.

In winter, the river is covered with a thick layer of ice, and people can run and jump on it, so children like to skate on it, which is a benefit that other seasons do not have!

"Can I not go?" Su Jinyu rubbed his hands. Before he went out, his hands started to get cold. If he went out, he would be frozen to death, wouldn't he? !
