Chapter 215: Guarding the treasure cannot be exchanged for money
Lin Lan entered the kitchen, first went to the room to check on Xiaodouzi, and saw that he was asleep on the bed, then turned and went to the kitchen.
Li Xiangyang sent Brother Yong off and came in from the outside with a backpack in hand. He looked at her tenderly and said, "Brother Yong's clothes are wet and there is nothing to change for him here. I gave him the bicycle to ride away."
As he spoke, he walked to the cupboard, took a plate and put a sprout of pork liver in it, "I saved some liver and stir-fried the pork liver."
"Yeah!" Lin Lan nodded without looking at him.
Li Xiangyang pulled her: "I'll cook, and you go make Qiaohui's bed."
Lin Lan glared at him with a blushing face and walked towards the room. Li Xiangyang watched her with a smile as she entered the room, took a melon ladle, poured water into the pot, washed the rice and put it in the pot.
Lin Lan took out a mattress, quilt, and sheets from the box, carried it to the side room, packed the doll books on the bed and put them in the box, made the bed, and went to the west wing alley under an umbrella.
Chickens and geese were standing in a row under the eaves. Lin Lan opened the door of the chicken pen, went back and scooped a ladle of chicken food into the chicken bowl, and started to call...
Three roosters and two big white geese ran very fast, followed by plump chickens and hens. They ran to the eaves and crowded in front of the two chicken bowls to grab food.
Qiaohui opened the door of the pigsty and came out with her wet hair draped over her shoulders. Lin Lan hurriedly went into the room and took a dry towel and handed it to her: "Wipe your hair quickly."
Qiaohui held the soft towel, paused for a moment, and hurriedly returned the towel to Lin Lan: "Cousin, just give me an old one."
"Take it!" Lin Lan smiled and said, "I, Douzi, Sister Yuezhen, all have separate towels. This one is for you to use for washing your face later, and I will give you another one for bathing later."
Seeing Lin Lan say this, Qiao Hui could only nod: "I know!" She dried her hair and looked at the towel in her hand, feeling that the outside was really different from the mountains.
I have never seen such a soft face-washing handkerchief in my entire life. The face-washing handkerchiefs at home were knitted by my mother with hemp thread. There were only two handkerchiefs for about ten people in the family, one for the old man and my brother, and one for my mother and sister-in-law.
One of her.
Qiaohui secretly made up her mind to learn the craft from her cousin. Her cousin said that the cakes made by her cousin were delicious, and she also said that her cousin would give her wages.
After she learned how to earn wages, she asked her cousin to help buy salt and rice for her mother. The old man took it back. If he had extra money, he bought two pieces of Liang, the kind worn by the captain, and made them new clothes.
Lin Lan fed the chickens, then went to the vegetable patch under an umbrella to pull out green onions, radishes, and celery and walked to the eaves. When she saw Qiaohui holding a towel, dazed in a daze, she said with a smile: "Qiaohui, aunt and uncle.
Are you feeling well?"
"Okay!" Qiaohui put the towel on the bamboo pole and squatted down to help Lin Lan choose vegetables, "Cousin, my eldest cousin asked me to plant more pumpkins and white beans in the spring next year...I said you want to harvest them, is it true?"
"Really!" Lin Lan said slowly, "Let them grow a variety of pumpkins, potatoes, and red potatoes. The old pumpkins are carried out on mules, and the potatoes and red potatoes are made into vermicelli. Send them out and I will sell them for you."
Qiaohui nodded happily: "Cousin, we also have ginger and taro vermicelli. My mother asked me to bring you some. If you like it, try it and I will bring it to you next time."
Lin Lan thought for a while and remembered that ginger taro looks a bit like canna and has red flowers: "I have seen ginger taro, but I have never heard of ginger taro powder!"
"Let me show it to you." Qiaohui put the selected celery in the basket, turned around and walked towards the folder she brought, took out a handful of light yellow, crystal clear vermicelli and handed it to Lin Lan, "Cousin,
These are vermicelli made with ginger and taro. It tastes soft and smooth, and is more delicious than red potato starch."
After seeing it, Lin Lan felt that it was a bit similar to the dry lotus root powder that was a delicacy there when she traveled to Guangxi. Unexpectedly, the dry lotus root in Guangxi was the ginger taro here. She smiled and said: "It's shiny. Let's cook it and try it tomorrow."
"
"Hey!" Qiaohui carried the ginger and taro powder and the back into the kitchen, then went to the stove to help Li Xiangyang light the fire.
Lin Yuezhen took a bath and returned to the kitchen with a basin. When she saw Li Xiangyang cooking, she quickly stepped forward and gestured to him to get out of her way.
Li Xiangyang smiled and said: "Sister Yuezhen, you can do your job and I will do it."
Lin Lan came in from the back door with a basket and said with a smile: "Let's try Chef Li's cooking tonight."
Li Xiangyang smiled and nodded: "Okay! You ladies are just waiting to eat."
Lin Lan smiled and glanced at Qiaohui, who was sitting obediently in front of the stove: "Are you hungry?"
"I'm not hungry!" Qiaohui turned and pointed at the back of the folder, "Cousin, take out the things inside."
"Thank you!" Lin Lan walked over, took out the items from the back of the folder one by one, and placed them on the chopping board. There were dried mushrooms, black fungus, pepper, as well as grasshoppers and grass fruits.
She discovered that the dried mushrooms in the small sack actually included porcini mushrooms, morels, and a few Hericium erinaceus: "Qiaohui, these dried mushrooms are good things! Why doesn't Auntie sell them for money?"
Who says the mountains are poor? People in the mountains can't exchange their treasures for money!
Qiaohui smiled: "Cousin, there are a lot of bigfoot mushrooms, porcini mushrooms, and morels in the mountains. You can't even exchange them for a lot of money at the supply and marketing cooperative. My old man said that Hericium is hard to find, so he shouted
I'll give it to you and your uncle to try! My uncle said, if you like it, I'll give it all to you."
Lin Lan then remembered that porcini, bigfoot mushrooms, and morels were still easy to find in this era, and hericium had always been rare.
"The ginger tea is ready, let's all have a bowl." Li Xiangyang brought the ginger tea to the table, picked up two Hericium erinaceus and looked at it, "I ate it when I was a few years old, and Hericium erinaceus is a good thing!
Go back and bring a letter to them to bring out in exchange for money."
Qiaohui shook her head repeatedly: "When I was a kid, Uncle Dashi next door was lucky enough to find half a basket, carry it out and sell it, and was arrested and imprisoned for a long time. The family thought he was captured by an old bear!"
Lin Lan thought to herself, why not go into the mountains this time and collect some dried mushrooms to sell before the Chinese New Year. She scooped up half a bowl of ginger tea and handed it to Qiaohui and Lin Yuezhen, "Drink less, we will eat soon."
She drank half the bowl, went to the room to get clean cotton shoes, sat on the edge of the bed and kissed Xiaodouzi: "Son, it's getting dark, it's time to eat."
Xiaodouzi rubbed his eyes and looked at her: "Mom, I'm not hungry!"
"Aunt Zhou, how can you be hungry when Uncle Li Wu gives you so many snacks?" Lin Lan pulled him up, took out his jacket and put it on him, "Eat less and drink some ginger tea, otherwise you can't go if you have a cold."
Go to school."
"Oh!" Xiaodouzi nodded, got out of bed and put on his shoes.
Lin Lan led him out, pointed at Qiaohui and said, "Call Auntie."
"Auntie!" Xiaodouzi looked at her curiously, "Mom, where did auntie come from? Why didn't I see auntie last time I went to my grandma's house?"
Qiaohui nodded happily: "I know your name is Xiaodouzi, and my eldest cousin said you are very smart!"
