When Father Gu heard that it was said by a god, he no longer doubted it.
"Then after you pick the flowers, let everyone pick them back! According to you, they should be left in the sun for a few days, right?" asked Father Gu.
"Dad! When our house is built, we will take them all back. Whether we put them in the yard or make a special house, we can grow them ourselves." In fact, although the weather is already spring, it is not yet spring.
When the fungus matured, he saw the fungus just popping up and put them into the space. Otherwise, they would not have grown so fast and so well!
Tomorrow he will go to town to sell fungus. He has to see if the fungus can be sold at a high price. If it is sold cheaply, it will not be cost-effective to take it home and plant it. Not to mention the manpower consumed, if too many are planted, Shanhe Town will be so big.
, it is impossible to digest so much fungus, and transportation to other places is inconvenient. Besides, there are fungus in other places.
So this fungus can only be eaten fresh. After a while, everyone will know about it, and the price will not go up.
"I don't know if I can sell it yet! Are you planning to take it to the restaurant to try it tomorrow? Then let's go back and taste some first before we can rest assured!" In fact, Father Gu was still quite worried. After all, before
I haven't tried it myself. What should I do if something goes wrong?
"Dad! Don't worry! When we go back later, I'll let mom make some to taste first." Gu Chengyu also knew that his father was being cautious. After all, it was a new food that he had never tasted before.
Then Gu Chengli and the others also came up the mountain, and they all picked together, and the speed was much faster. After picking the honeysuckle, Father Gu asked everyone to clear a sack and pick back all the fungus on the dead wood.
When picking it, Erya was still mumbling. Obviously, when she looked just now, there wasn't so much deadwood here! And there were so many black things on it. Gu Chengyu was listening and wanted to wipe away the cold sweat.
, had no choice but to explain that maybe her eyes were deceived just now, and Erya could only let go of her doubts after hearing this.
When Gu Chengyu waited for everyone to go down the mountain, he put the few rotten trees into the space again.
By the time everyone returned to Gu's yard, it was already dark.
They poured out all the honeysuckle from the sack and spread it out to dry in a large dustpan. Then Gu Chengyu and Daya poured out the fungus and placed it alone on a large straw curtain.
"Eh? Xiaobao! What is this? Why did you bring this back?" Mrs. Lu was very strange when she saw a pair of black things. Although Mrs. Lu was also a peasant woman, she was sold when she was not very old.
She worked as a maid in a wealthy family, so she had never seen the black fungus growing on the mountain.
"Mom! This is the fungus. Dry it in the sun and soak it when cooking. I have dried it a little before. I will boil some hot water to soak it and let's cool it.
Eat it, it tastes so good!" Gu Chengyu explained to his mother.
Then he went to his bedside, pretended to take out a handful of dried fungus from the cabinet, and handed it to Lu.
"Okay! Isn't that similar to shiitake mushrooms? They can be dried in the sun, and when they are about to be burned, they can only be cooked by soaking them. Come to the kitchen with me, sir!" Mrs. Lu held the fungus in her hands and asked Mrs. Fang to go with her.
kitchen.
By the time Gu Chengyu and the others had sorted out the fungus and honeysuckle, Lu and the others had already soaked the fungus. Because they soaked it in warm water, the time was shorter.
Gu Chengyu taught them to pinch off a little of the root of the fungus, take it out and put it in a basin.
"Mom! You need to blanch this in boiling water. When mixing, add some garlic, some sesame oil, some sugar, vinegar and soy sauce and it's ready!"
"Where can we get sesame oil at home? It's a piece of fat meat boiled with some lard last time. Can lard be used?" Lu was a little confused, why do we need sesame oil? This is a precious thing.
"The one mixed with lard may not be that delicious, but the one mixed with sesame oil has a delicate fragrance. Forget it! Since there is none, we can only use this." Gu Chengyu found that he had not seen rapeseed oil since he traveled here, and he didn't know what it was.
It’s not that rapeseed hasn’t been discovered in the Dayan Dynasty.
"Mom! Rapeseed oil can also be used." Gu Chengyu thought of the rapeseed in the space and thought it was better to explore the way.
"What is rapeseed oil?" Lu was a little confused!
"It's just a kind of vegetarian oil. Mother! Let's mix the fungus first!" He quickly stopped Lu from asking any more questions. It would be difficult to lie if he asked further. After all, there were many people in the main room now.
Mrs. Lu asked Fang to cut the fungus into small pieces, serve it cold and serve it on the table. The five brothers, Fang, He, and Mr. Gu and his wife all sat at the table around the cold fungus.
They all went back to their houses to sleep!
"Dad! Is this thing really edible? Didn't you say that it killed people before?" Gu Chengyi was a little skeptical. He had heard that some people were poisoned after eating this thing. However, this time, this thing was served on the table.
Who can use chopsticks?
"Since the book says it's edible, just eat less and try it. It should be fine. I'll give it a try!" Seeing everyone's hesitation, Mr. Gu had no choice but to grab his chopsticks and prepare to take the first bite. This book says
What he said was also the excuse Father Gu had made earlier.
Madam Fang just sat expressionless, while Madam He quietly pulled at the hem of Gu Chengyi's clothes under the table.
"Dad! Why should we try this fungus? Who knows if this thing is edible? I don't dare to eat it. What will happen if it goes bad?" Ms. He was reluctant in every way. She wouldn't go anyway.
Stretch out your chopsticks.
"Dad! Should I try it?" Gu Chengli stopped Dad Gu and picked up the chopsticks as if he had made up his mind.
"Brother! Don't eat it. Who knows if it's poisonous?" Seeing that Gu Chengli wanted to eat it, Gu Chengyi quickly took out the chopsticks from Gu Chengli's hand and threw it on the table.
"What's wrong? Are you doubting Xiaobao? If Xiaobao says you can eat this, you can eat it. This is what the book says. You don't dare to eat it, but I will, you are a bunch of cowards!" Seeing everyone, Lu said,
She became suspicious of Gu Chengyu and the fire started rising. She was not afraid. Xiaobao was a person under the care of the Bodhisattva. The Bodhisattva could allow Xiaobao to eat poisonous things?
As soon as Mrs. Lu raised her chopsticks, she saw that a pair of chopsticks had already caught the fungus on the plate and was about to take it back.
"Xiaobao?" Mrs. Lu exclaimed, her hands holding the chopsticks trembling a little. She believed in her son, but she didn't want her son to take any risks.
"Mom! You and your sister-in-law are very good at cooking, and the mixing is delicious." Gu Chengyu said to Lu with a smile while chewing the fungus.
"Mom, it's okay, it's really edible! You still don't believe me?" Gu Chengyu was a little helpless. This was a home-cooked dish in his previous life.
"Oh! Mom! Xiaobao said it's fine, so why don't we be as good as a little baby?" Gu Chenglian also took a bite and found that it was quite delicious.
Mrs. Lu calmed down. Since Xiaobao had eaten everything, she was no longer afraid. She picked up two big chopsticks and ate it.
When Gu Chengchi saw that all three of them had eaten, he didn't hesitate anymore. He didn't know why, but he just believed in Xiaobao.
