Sheng Xiping briefly told what happened, and everyone heaved a sigh of relief.
"Boss, how is Xiao Zhou doing? Are you scared?
Look at you, you didn’t even give her a word, just ask someone to call her at night.”
When Zhang Shuzhen heard this, she complained that her son would not get into trouble.
In this situation, I'm afraid the girl was very frightened. What should I do if she got scared?
"Damn it, don't talk nonsense, it doesn't matter now." Sheng Liancheng quickly stopped his wife to prevent her from talking any more.
Although this is in my own yard, I am afraid that the walls have ears. At this time, I still need to be careful when speaking.
"Second child, third child, help your brother peel off the snake skin while it's still not dark outside."
No matter how you say it, these are good things. If you put them away, the whole family can have a nice meal, but they can't be wasted.
So Sheng Xiping gave Zhang Shuzhen and her daughter the gastrodia elata in his pocket, the piece of tree mushroom, and the fungus in his pants pockets.
He led his two younger brothers, hung the headless snake on the garden stick, and peeled off the snake's skin bit by bit.
Snake meat is very fishy, and if you do it like this, the whole yard will be filled with fishy smell.
Sheng Xian found a large wooden basin from the house, put the skinned and boned snake meat into the big basin, and together with Sheng Xikang, carried the wooden basin back to the kitchen.
Sheng Xiping packed up the snake skin and nailed it to the wooden board of the warehouse to dry in the dark. This thing has its uses and cannot be thrown away casually.
"Hurry and wash your hands, eat first, and then clean up after you finish eating."
Zhang Shuzhen was naturally so happy that her son brought so much food back from the mountain, so she urged Sheng Xiping to wash her hands and eat.
"Mom, I promised Haining, Weiguo and the others today that I would invite them to my house for dinner tomorrow, and Qinglan will come too."
Sheng Xiping washed his hands with soap and talked to his mother.
After all, he has not yet settled down to live a family life. If he invites friends over for dinner, he must talk to his parents.
"Oh, okay, young people should move around more.
Then I'll think about cooking more dishes tomorrow." Zhang Shuzhen listened and nodded.
It's normal for young people to make friends. They're all kids who grew up together in the forest farm. What's the point of having a meal together?
Even if the Sheng family were not well off, they would still be able to afford this meal.
Not to mention, Sheng Xiping specifically mentioned Zhou Qinglan's coming just now.
Zhang Shuzhen is already this age, how can she still not understand what her son means? It seems that the two of them are finally married.
Her eldest son wanted to bring the girl back and show her parents that she had crossed the road.
When her son was twenty years old, the one he wanted to marry finally came back. Zhang Shuzhen was so happy that it was too late. How could she say no?
At this moment, she was already thinking about what kind of food she would cook for tomorrow.
"Mom, don't worry too much, just cook and eat whatever you have at home.
I'll go to the river to fish for Liangzi later, and I should be able to catch some more fish to add to my meal."
Sheng Xiping washed his hands, changed the basin of water, washed his face again, and then went into the house to eat.
The meal in the evening is not as sumptuous as in the early morning. It is still sorghum rice, pickles, pickles, and soup.
Sheng Xitai held the bowl, put rice into his mouth, and murmured, "It would be great if I could eat meat every time."
"What? You want to go to heaven? I have sweet dreams all day long.
Eat meat every meal, and then you’ll be late every day?”
Sheng Liancheng glared at his old son. This naughty boy had a greedy mind.
As soon as these words came out, everyone in the room laughed.
I was late because I was stewing chicken at home that morning. I guess Sheng Xitai was the first person in the entire Qianchuan Forest Farm Primary and Secondary School.
If this incident is not done well, it will be remembered by classmates for a lifetime.
When his own father said this, Sheng Xitai's face was not red, but he raised his head and glanced at his brothers and sisters who were leaning back and forth with laughter, then lowered his head and continued to eat.
"It's hard to stew a chicken, but why don't you want me to have a good meal?
Those people laughed at me for being late, but I didn't know why they were envious.
Their family can’t afford to stew a chicken all morning.”
When the smiling Sheng Xi'an heard this, their smiles suddenly froze on their faces.
Why do you feel that there is some truth to what Lao Qiao said?
Yes, in this day and age, who gets up early in the morning to stew chicken?
If this were in other people's homes, they would probably be envious, right?
Everyone suddenly felt very proud, "That's because our eldest brother has the ability. If it weren't for our eldest brother, you would be the one who covets others."
Sheng Yunfei snorted at her younger brother, the little brat was making a lot of nonsense all day long.
"Okay, okay, let's eat quickly.
After dinner, you two help me wash the gastrodia elata, just in time to cook it when making porridge tomorrow morning and dry it in the sun during the day.
It seems that Gastrodia elata is quite expensive this year. If I save more, I can still sell it for some money."
Zhang Shuzhen hurriedly stepped forward to smooth things over to prevent Lao Dazai from being bullied by her sister.
The family happily finished their dinner. The two girls helped clear the table, wash the dishes, and then fetch water to wash the gastrodia elata.
When the bagful of gastrodia was poured out, it almost hit the washbasin.
And there are only five with seedlings, and the others are all big cubs that have not been unearthed.
This kind weighs well when dried and sells for a high price.
The two girls cleaned the gastrodia elata, while Zhang Shuzhen put the fungus in a sieve and put it outside to ventilate and dry.
Generally speaking, fresh fungus cannot be eaten directly. Sometimes it can cause phytophotodermatitis, which is painful and itchy and cannot be exposed to the sun.
Although the probability of this is small, it should be avoided as much as possible.
Let the fungus dry outside, clean the mushrooms and cut them into small strips with a knife.
Then heat the bottom of the pot and wait until the water in the pot boils. Pour the strips of Phalaenopsis mushrooms into the water and blanch them, then take them out with a skewer, run them through cold water twice, and put them in a cool place.
There's no way around it. Tree mushrooms age very quickly. If we don't deal with them tonight, I'm afraid most of them will be inedible tomorrow morning. It's a pity.
Sheng Liancheng was not idle either. He picked up a sharp hand ax and chopped the snake meat in the wooden basin into pieces, then scooped up some water and soaked the snake meat.
It’s hot in summer, and meat goes bad easily. Now that there’s no refrigerator, we can only use cold water to cook it and save it for cooking tomorrow.
As for Sheng Xiping, after dinner, he took his two younger brothers and took the curtain-like things they had made with wicker to go to the lower reaches of the river, not to mention Yu Liangzi.
Choose a river with a suitable width and narrowness, and use stones to form a figure-eight stone wall from the outside to the inside, leaving an opening more than a foot wide.
Then press the top side of the wicker curtain and prop up the bottom side.
The curtain forms a certain slope with the water surface, with the upper part lower and the higher higher. At the higher end, a fish basket is installed.
The fish couldn't get over the stone wall, so it had to go to the center of the river again. The water in the middle of the river was strong, and the fish was washed up against the curtain.
The bigger fish jumped up and fell into the fish basket, while the smaller one stopped on the curtain.
This is the device that the locals call Yuliangzi.
Don't think that this fish is easy to catch. For those who know how to catch fish, catching dozens of kilograms of fish in one night is just like playing. If you catch a good time, you can catch hundreds of kilograms.
But if you don’t know how to pin Liangzi, you won’t be able to catch fish even if you follow other people’s instructions.
Dear friends, this book should be the first round of recommendations arranged tonight. It is of a PK nature and mainly depends on follow-up reading. The follow-up reading of the new book issue is very important. Don’t keep reading these days. I’m so cute and roll around, please follow me.
