Chapter 221 Morels
And when they were looking for in-laws for their daughters, they always picked the ones with good conditions, but not good personalities. With such a mixture of genes, the children might inherit them. Evil on both sides.
If they knew what Huo Beixi did and knew that she was very rich, they would not be able to swarm over and ask Huo Beixi to help them raise them!
Grandpa Huo and Grandma Huo’s daughter are of the same generation as his father. Huo Beixi has to call her aunt, then the aunt’s children are of the same generation as him and are his brothers and sisters. They are all relatives, and it is really difficult to deal with this entanglement.
After all, home is here and work is here. It’s impossible to leave everything and hide outside because of them, right?
So the best way is not to let them know.
After hearing this, Grandpa Huo and Grandma Huo nodded. The two of them turned around and left without saying anything. What could they say? Huo Beixi had already sold everything to an outsider like Hua Xiali, and they had no reason to come back.
And if you want to come back, you have to pay ten times as compensation. How can they have that money?
Grandpa Huo and Grandma Huo had been gone for a long time before Hua Xiali went to her fourth uncle's house because she didn't want to meet Grandpa Huo and Grandma Huo on the way. They were not Huo Beixi's direct relatives.
Hua Xiali went to the bamboo forest on the mountain to find his fourth uncle and aunt. When he came to the place where they were breaking bamboo shoots, he found a flat place to sit down, but he caught a glimpse of some familiar wild flowers at his feet. Mushrooms.
Hua Xia Li was so surprised that she hurriedly picked one and studied it. The surface of this mushroom was uneven and shaped like a morel. It was definitely a morel.
This morel is a world-recognized rare and rare mushroom that can be used both as food and medicine. Eating it has many benefits for the human body. Hua Xiali did not expect that their Guizhen City also has two morels and bamboo fungus. They grow very famous wild mushrooms, but people here are not that enthusiastic about mushrooms, so no one pays attention to or understands them.
But maybe because of the lack of information circulation in this era, people don’t know that these mushrooms can be eaten. It will be until the information explosion in the future when everyone knows about it that some people will eat these things!
In short, some things that were very popular in the previous life are not eaten by people at this time, such as fish. Where there is water in the countryside, there are fish. There are so many that you can directly scoop the fish with a ladle. But Hua Xia Li rarely saw anyone going out to catch fish to eat.
There are also things like snails and small snails. In the past, children only picked them up for fun. When adults were working in the rice fields, the big snails were easily picked up by the naked eye. I didn’t see anyone picking up the snails and taking them home to eat. .
There are obviously many people in the village, but there is no one to do it.
After discovering morels, Hua Xiali was so happy that she took out a black knife that resembled a small pencil of this era from the space, and then picked a few morels at her feet.
After that, I took the basket and went to other places to look for morels.
Things that she could not afford to eat in her previous life can now be found everywhere. Naturally, she cannot let herself miss it. She picks morels in April and bamboo fungus in June.
But by that time, her belly must have grown bigger. If it is not convenient to pick bamboo fungus, she may have to miss this year’s bamboo fungus.
Hua Xiali knew that if she stayed at her fourth uncle's house for too long, that guy from Huo Beixi might be able to pick her up on his motorcycle, and she also had to review herself, so she would stay at her fourth uncle's house for one night at a time and the next day. We will go back at noon because we have to pick morels in the morning. We will stay one night after returning home and go back the next morning so that we can pick morels again.
Morels have high nutritional value and are also very valuable, but the picking time is not long. They can only be picked in April and May every spring, so she thought of taking advantage of this time to get more. Pick some morels, otherwise she will have to wait until autumn. She will definitely not be able to pick them this fall.
If it weren’t for Huo Beixi at home, she would have wanted to live at her fourth uncle’s house until there were no morels. But now that she is no longer alone, she still has to care about the other person’s feelings. . In terms of family, she is no longer short of money, and there are so many employees helping her make money. Her focus now is on family.
That afternoon, Hua Xali went to the bamboo forest in Hewan. The bamboo grandson who placed Lu Xiaozhi at the agreed place received the space, put down the money, and then went to break another basket. The freshest bamboo shoots, I carried the bamboo shoots back.
Huo Beixi saw Hua Xiali coming back, took the basket in her hand, and asked curiously, "Are you breaking bamboo shoots to feed the pigs?"
Hua Xiali was a little surprised, "You don't Do you know that bamboo shoots are edible?”
“Are bamboo shoots edible?” Huo Beixi shook his head, “I haven’t eaten them before.” br>
“Bamboo shoots are not only edible, they also taste good!” Hua Xiali said with a smile. She really liked eating bamboo shoots anyway, but her previous life was more than ten years later when she went to the city to study with her children and do odd jobs. Only then did she learn that bamboo shoots were edible. She learned several ways to make bamboo shoots. Later, after spring started, she went to the river to break the bamboo shoots herself.
After all, bamboo shoots are quite expensive, and she is really reluctant to spend money to buy them!
She didn't spend a penny on fish, eels, and snails in her previous life. She went back to the village to catch them all by herself. There were obviously things in the village that didn't cost money, so why waste money on them?
And she is good at cooking. Both children liked the food she made in her previous life.
Hua Xiali sat in the yard, peeling the bamboo shoots with a knife, then rolled them in his hand, and quickly peeled out the fresh and tender bamboo shoots.
"Honey, you go and have a rest, I will peel it. You can teach me how to do it later." Huo Beixi came over, squatted in front of Hua Xiali, stretched out his hand and picked up a bamboo shoot, one leaf at a time. peeled off.
Hua Xiali was a little funny, "It's not like you peeled it off. If you peel it off like you do, you won't be able to peel off such a basket until tomorrow morning."
"Watch it carefully and treat it like I did." Hua Xia taught Huo Beixi a lesson and then handed the knife to Huo Beixi. Huo Beixi handled it according to Hua Xia's ethics. As a result, the knife fell out of the bamboo shoots. Half of the meat was cut off, which made shelling more difficult.
Huo Beixi felt helpless, put down the knife and said, "I'd better use the stupidest way. I just need to be faster."
Huo must give Huo a basket like this. I guess I really can’t eat the Beixi peel tonight, so Hua Xiali didn’t go to rest, but the two of them peeled it together.
The basket of bamboo shoots was quickly peeled off, with only one-third of the bamboo shoots left.
"Let's go, take the bamboo shoots to the kitchen, and I'll teach you how to blanch them." Hua Xiali stood up as he said that, but his head suddenly felt dizzy. Huo Beixi hurriedly stretched out his hand to support Hua Xiali. Xia Li asked worriedly, "Wife, what's wrong with you?"
