Chapter 976: Catching insects and digging vegetables in spring
"Dad, what do you think this is?" Li Feng leaned on the chair and played his guitar. He drank a little too much at noon and was thinking about taking a rest. Several children dug wild vegetables and picked some strawberries, small tomatoes and small black bears.
, little monkeys, a group of small animals were playing around. There were children in the whole yard, reading, playing the piano, playing the violin, chasing the little bear and playing with the ball and chasing the little monkey, or running into the hut to look for it.
With gray wolf, spotted dog and fat boy.
Bell and Chacha carried a small dustpan of grass and followed Guoguo to feed the little flowers and rabbits. The little baby didn't know what to do. He stuck out his little butt in the flower bed, grabbed the twigs and dug in the soil. Li Xiaoman also said a few words.
, causing the little baby to pouted, then he held a small white insect in his dirty little hand and raised it to Li Feng's eyes. It was white and tender, spiral-shaped, like a small aphid.
Li Feng paused for a moment. This is not the Laoshan Niu, the scientific name for it. Last year, Li Feng discovered that there were not many Laoshan Niu. He thought he could raise some this year, but he didn’t expect that the babies would be dug up. There are two types of Ground Niu in Lijiagang, and one is a divine insect.
The dish is also known as pagoda dish, just like cordyceps, but in Lijiagang everyone prefers to call it white caterpillar fungus. The meat is tender, crystal clear, crispy and delicious, has a unique flavor and is very nutritious. It is not only a good food but also has high medicinal properties.
Use value. It has choleretic, diuretic, sedative, moisturizing the lungs and kidneys, nourishing yin and blood, etc. It can also relieve hangover, but it is a natural and good food. The other one is Li Baobao’s hand, which is also a kind of medicinal material, and Li Feng
The last time I made medicinal wine, there were several local medicinal wines that included Laoshan Niu.
Li Feng didn't think about it these days. Now he held the baby and handed it to him. Li Feng remembered it. Now it's more than February, and it's April in the Gregorian calendar. The whole mountain is full of spring breath, the grass sprouts green buds, and some
The days are like a scene of warblers flying and grass growing.
"Hey, baby, throw it away, it's so dirty." Li Xiaoman came out with the washed fruit for everyone to eat. He was shocked when he saw classmate Li Baobao holding a small white worm, which was squirming like a white rice maggot.
In general, silkworms are really hard to see.
"No, Dad, tell me, it took the baby a long time to catch it." Li Baobao stopped. It took the little girl a long time to catch it, but it was wrong to dig it up. Xiaocao fished for a long time, and finally the little girl caught it.
He caught it by himself. Li Feng sat upright and held the baby.
"It's okay, Xiaoman, this is a good thing. Even though it's small, it has a very cool name, Lao Shanniu." Li Feng pinched the mountain ox and looked at it. He introduced the functions of this small insect, which is as small as a grain of rice. Li Feng
Xiaoman was stunned for a moment after hearing this. This is not much worse than Cordyceps Sinensis.
"By the way, where did you catch the baby?" Li Feng was still thinking about catching more. The baby was excited when his father asked him. He pointed to the flower bed not far away with his little finger. "There, there are many, many.
Brother Xiaoxin told the baby that there are small insects in the hole, which can be fished out with grass, but the baby has been fishing for a long time." He pouted his mouth and became a little unhappy. Brother Xiaoxin lied.
Woolen cloth.
"Haha, it's okay, let's go, daddy will teach you how to fish." Li Feng wanted to see how many there were, so he could collect more. After all, it's better to catch them in the pharmacy. This old mountain cow is quite fun, and Li Feng teased Li Baobao with the old mountain cow.
Put it in your little hand and the insect slowly retreats, the palm of your hand is itching, making the baby giggle non-stop.
"Haha, this old mountain cow is also called the fallen mountain cow. It's fun. Let's go, let's catch some ants." Li Feng only had a small ant nest, dug it out with a branch, caught a small bottle of ants, and tied it with a thin thread.
Live. This can become a fishing hook. Of course, you can use small grass and thin leaves, just like fishing for eels.
Open the small hole, stuff it in, and keep turning it to tease the old mountain cow inside. There will probably be insects in the hole, and you will find that the grass sinks. The whole time, you can't use strong force and slight force like fishing for eels.
Li Feng had fun by fishing for small insects, which made the crowd afraid to gather around the little baby. Finally, Li Xiaoman asked for a few small ants to catch the old mountain cow, and the whole flower bed was filled with old ants.
There were quite a lot of mountain cattle. They were all larvae, which were used to dry and make medicinal materials. In the end, they caught half a bowl. Li Feng was afraid that it would be too cold for the children to lie on the ground. Don't catch a cold, even if it's noon.
Besides, it was already past three o'clock. Li Feng put the insects into the earthen pot and slowly heated them over the fire. He then covered the earthen pot and left it. After Li Feng finished his work, he looked back and saw a few little guys lying on the ground.
He went to the flower bed. Li Feng felt that this was not possible. These little guys were very playful and they might have caught a cold. After all, no matter how healthy they were, they couldn't be ruined like this.
Li Feng thought for a while, he hadn't taken his children out to play for a while. There might be pagoda vegetables on the river beach. Even if they didn't pick some good buds, maybe the Chinese toon could be eaten. Li Feng said, a few
The little guys all shouted, and they led the little flames and let them go.
The family went out in a grand manner and walked along the path, which was covered with small grass. The winding path extended to the river beach. As they walked through the village entrance, they happened to meet the Li Xu family who were returning from visiting the grave. The bride must accompany the groom's family on the first day after entering the house.
She went to burn paper for her ancestors' graves. Gao Qianqian changed out of her red clothes, washed her face and now looked after the Li family. The second child was still holding the washbasin. This boy got a lot of red envelopes today, which cost an estimated one hundred yuan.
Li Feng said hello. He had a lot of things to do when he returned. "Third brother, let's go back first and have a good drink in a few days." Li Xu waved his hand. All the guests at home had left, but there were still some neighbors to help.
In the evening, we still have to eat a meal, entertain it at home, and go back to prepare the meal.
Li Feng led a group of children away, which aroused Gao Qianqian's curiosity. Li Feng faintly listened to Gao Qianqian who was walking away and asked Li Xu about this. A small bamboo on the roadside now has small bamboo shoots. Li Feng is not polite. These are the tenderest and the cooking tastes extremely good.
It's delicious, just a little bit. Li Feng made half a basket along the way, and plans to make cold bamboo shoots, cucumber and carrot rolls to eat in the evening. There are some scattered wild vegetables beside the ditch, but they are still too small, and they are much worse than the wild vegetables in the greenhouse.
Now. The wild vegetables have just come out at this time, and they may have been eaten in previous years.
Who makes the weather today so weird? It’s been so many years since I’ve seen this heavy snow blocking the mountains.
The babies were carrying small baskets and lowered their heads a little disappointed. There were no wild vegetables to dig here. It was estimated that it would take about ten days before wild vegetables could be grown in a large area.
"Uncle, what is this?" While Li Feng was looking for bamboo shoots, Xiaoxin pointed at a bunch of water celery and shouted. "This is edible water celery. It was available during the Chinese New Year in previous years. It snowed too much today."
"The temperature is low, so they will grow so big." Li Feng looked at them carefully and found that these water celery are quite delicate.
"Really?" Such a patch of water celery was dotted with stars. The sharp-eyed Ling Ding and Qi Qi both noticed it. Only the baby lowered his head and pouted. The little girl didn't pay attention to these and kept following her father to break the bamboo shoots. This
When I met my brother and sister, my little cousin found a bunch of cress, but she didn't find any.
"Baby, come and help daddy. Look, there are so many bamboo shoots." Li Feng saw that his daughter was a little strange. He was happy and waved. The little girl ran over. When she saw that there were no bamboo shoots, she pouted and was unhappy.
"Dad, you're lying. The baby is ignoring you." Li Baobao patted his little Huo Miao. From now on, he would only play with Xiao Huo Miao and not the baby. Li Feng was happy to see this girl.
He used the stick to pull apart the vines, and nests of small bamboo shoots appeared in front of Li Baobao. "Wow, there are so many small bamboos." Baobao yelled and wanted to break them off. Li Feng hurriedly pulled them.
The thorn vine has just grown out, but the little thorns on it are still quite prickly.
Besides, Li Feng is picking some buds. The tips of these newly-snapped thorn vines are only one or two inches long. These are somewhat similar to the thorn tusks, but they are smaller and have a little bigger.
The thorns were picked, and the skin on them was gently broken off. They looked like toothpicks one by one. Li Feng picked a few and estimated that they were enough for a plate of dishes. Because they were like small toothpicks, the villagers thought it was not pleasant to call them toothpicks.
It's better to lift the teeth. If the teeth are tender and large, just pinch off the top without peeling them. Just soak them in boiling water overnight. But it won't work for small teeth. In the end, only the skin will be left.
The lower rhizome spits out buds. After all, this is not a vegetable, but a thorn vine. These small thorn vines are soft and soft as those thorns are hard and strong.
The taste of tender thorn teeth is a bit bitter, but the difference is that of titi teeth. It is sweet and has a refreshing fragrance. No need to soak it in water. Just pour it in boiling water and mix it with shredded cucumber and coriander and a little spicy oil. It is definitely an extremely refreshing side dish. It is very appetizing. These
The days are greasy every day, so tonight Li Feng plans to pack a few side dishes for appetizers. This is also the first spring wild vegetable since the arrival of spring.
When Li Feng was breaking the teeth, Li Xiaoman looked at it curiously. This was the first time she had seen these things. "Can these be eaten?" Li Feng was amused. He found a bigger one, broke it off, peeled it and stuffed it into his mouth.
"Li Feng, you..." "Dad, is it delicious?" Li Xiaoman opened her mouth in surprise and asked with expectation.
"It's delicious, sweet and a little sour." Li Feng found two sticks and broke them into small pieces. You may not be used to it if you eat it for the first time. One child tried the taste bit by bit, but he didn't expect that several children liked it.
Li Xiaoman didn't expect that these were like tiny garlic sprouts peeled out of twigs, with a light fragrance, sweet and sour taste. It was really delicious. Li Xiaoman didn't say it now, but just said it was delicious and made more.
Li Feng chuckled, that's good, I can plant some seeds in the space myself, and they will be used to decorate the walls of the small yard, which looks very nice. Li Feng originally thought that just peeling a little would be enough, and not using too much. But he would see a lot of people here.
The children all loved it, so Li Feng had to find more. Fortunately, there were a lot of thorn vines on the side of the field. Many of them had sprouts. Li Feng gave some guidance, and the children started to help after a while. But Li Feng discovered that,
Most of these little guys were peeled and stuffed into his little mouth. In the end, he had to work more by himself, walking around and picking a lot of cress. Xiaoxin, Taotao, Qiqi, and Zhuangzhuang all had a lot of baskets. Li Feng
It is estimated that there are at least two large baskets in total.
These are enough to last for a few days. I'll cook a few more dishes in the evening, but I can't make dumplings for dinner after dinner. I'll make celery dumplings or steamed buns tomorrow morning. These will all be...!~!
