A Handbook of Happiness for Small Farmers

Chapter 443 Trader Joe's and Mushrooms

The night before Lu Xiaoyu returned home, Qin Ke'er's family finally breathed a sigh of relief.

All the roofs of the rooms have been re-pasted with white paper, and all the windows and doors have been pasted with brand-new window paper. In addition, the red happy characters are also pasted all over the house. Shares are festive.

Zhang Liuer, Xu Niang, Chunhua and the others have been rushing in the past two days, and finally made two new quilts.As for the back and the quilt core, they were bought in the Fucheng market before.

In the kitchen, a lot of dishes and meats, as well as fish and ribs, have been laid out at this time. From that scale, it may not be so rich even during the Chinese New Year.

In the corner of the kitchen in the back room, there are two small stoves burning separately. This was specially made by Qin Keer with Master Tiejiang before, so that it can be used in summer without making the big kang in the house too hot. fiery.

A large pot on one stove is cooking eight-treasure porridge, while a large pot on the other stove is boiling fragrant mushroom soup.

These mushrooms were not picked by Qin Ke'er a few days ago, but were picked by Qiao Shi and Nian Bashi from the mountain yesterday.

Speaking of these mushrooms, Qin Ke'er couldn't help feeling happy again.

Originally thought that Mrs. Qiao was only familiar with the most common grass mushrooms, but who knew that Mrs. Qiao knew more types of mushrooms than Qin Ke'er.It's just that all she knows is whether this kind of mushroom can be eaten, but she doesn't know what it is called.

But the name doesn't matter, Qin Ke'er can help, but if you want to find all kinds of mushrooms together, it's not a small project.

Because of Qin Ke'er's instructions, when Qiao's went to pick mushrooms this time, he picked more of each kind of mushrooms, some of them were used for cooking and soup, and the rest had to be cleaned up. Xiaoyu took it back to Duke Wei's mansion.

Although the Duke's Mansion of the State of Wei said that there are bad and delicious food, but the mushrooms may not be as many as on the mountain.

At this time, Mrs. Qiao was sitting on a small bench, carefully packing the mushrooms that Lu Xiaoyu was going to take with her.

"Qiao Shi, how do you know so many mushrooms?" Qin Ke'er had nothing to do, so she chatted with Qiao Shi about the daily life.

"My father and my grandfather are both hunters, walking in the mountains all the year round. When my father was a teenager, he sneaked up the mountain again by himself, but got lost. It was dark and slippery. He accidentally dropped all the dry food and so on. I was injured and almost lost my life. Later, I met a little girl who went up the mountain to collect herbs, and saved my father’s life. She told my father that this thing is actually edible, and said that as long as it is boiled in water, put it in Add garlic, as long as the garlic does not change color, it is not poisonous. Later, my family started to eat this stuff.”

Qiao Shi was taking care of the mushrooms while talking to Qin Ke'er about the past.

From Qiao's narration, Qin Ke'er learned why the Qiao family ate this kind of mushroom, and also understood why they knew that mushrooms were edible but didn't tell everyone that they could eat them.

In fact, the reason is very simple, that is, in the eyes of the world, this mushroom is a poison, and everyone is not so poor that they can’t even eat, even if they are really poor, there are still wild vegetables and leaves to eat , How can I not have the turn to eat poison.

After a long time, the Qiao family suppressed the fact that mushrooms can be eaten.

If Qiao's hadn't been desperate and didn't want to sell her body, she probably wouldn't have openly sold mushrooms in the market, which gave Wang a chance to frame her.
