Chapter 481 Fire
Catch the mud puddles, get down into cages, and the few beehives that were placed in the mountains before going to Beijing.
Fu Jingyou also went to see it.
A few abandoned their nests, but some still had bees.
Fu Jingyou sent the child back, asked Chen Guifen for an unused soup can, and brought back a large can of honey.
Wrap the honey block in fine gauze and squeeze out most of the honey. Fu Jingyou wants to throw away the beeswax in the fine sand.
Lu Miao was watching from the side, her eyes flashed and she didn’t know what she was thinking of. She pulled him and refused to throw him away, saying that she would take him back to the capital.
Fu Jingyou wrapped it in several layers of oil paper and packed it up.
Afterwards, in the afternoon we went to pick up ground cages, including eels, small crucian carp, yellow croakers and crabs.
There are a lot of messes.
Just didn't see any turtles.
Fu Jingyou was still talking about it when he took the floor cage back to He's courtyard to clean it up.
In the past few days since they came back, He Hongjin didn't go to the ground much.
I just stay at home and watch over the children, sometimes wandering around and doing some random things.
Hearing Fu Jingyou’s words, He Hongjin rubbed the back of his head and joked with a smile:
"There are still turtles. I'm afraid I'll eat them to death."
"Huh?"
Fu Jingyou looked puzzled.
He Hongjin smoked a dry cigarette and explained casually:
“No one in the village ate this stuff before. Last time when the two babies were one year old, didn’t that stubborn girl suggest a recipe?”
“It’s free, there’s no money, and there’s no need for tickets. Everyone tried it and found it delicious, so they all went to catch it.”
“We catch it every day, you catch it and I catch it, so where can we find turtles?”
There are still some, but not as many as before.
In the past, when I was walking on the bank of the channel early in the morning, all the tortoises lined up to roll into the water.
You don’t see that kind of scene very much now.
One is that there is less.
The second thing is to catch them all the time. These bastards have also been trained and are very good at it.
“It can still be like this.”
Fu Jingyou threw a few small crucian carp into the bucket.
The three children were lying next to the bucket with their heads raised, watching.
"People in the countryside don't understand. This food is good. It is said to be eaten by dignitaries in the past. Everyone in the city knows it."
When mentioning the turtle thing, Fu Jingyou told what he had seen at the seafood market in Beijing. :
"I went to the market with Miaomiao that time. A turtle costs eight or nine yuan."
"What?"
He Hongjin's eyes widened and he stopped smoking. , "How much?"
"Eighty cents a pound is more expensive than pork."
"Good guy, this, this..."
He Hongjin rubbed his head and asked:
"Did you buy it?"
Fu Jingyou shook his head: "Miaomiao didn't let me, and said she wanted to eat it when she came back."
He Hongjin knocked the cigarette rod, nodded and said:
"That's the truth. How can you buy it when it's so expensive? Why not buy more meat to eat, isn't it good for the body? It's still affordable."
Fu Jingyou laughed but said nothing.
After taking out all the things in the ground cage, he stacked the ground cages together and placed them in the corner of the yard, then carried them back to the well in the backyard to clean them up.
The children ran behind.
Erbao passed by the gate and saw his grandfather sitting on the threshold with smoke coming from his mouth.
The little girl frowned and covered her grandfather's mouth with her fleshy little hands:
"Dad, daddy, grandpa is on fire!"
Backyard Dabao and Minjie Fu Jingyou was stomping his feet and making noise, but he didn't hear his daughter's cry.
“It’s not a fire, grandpa is smoking!”
He Hongjin quickly put out his cigarette, put the cigarette rod aside, stood up and swayed around with Erbao in his arms.
“What a fat girl, so heavy!”
A solid fat girl, well raised.
There is no trace of the faults from my past birth.
It makes people like it just by looking at it. "Grandpa smokes and smoke comes out of his mouth."
"Haha, it's..."
Under the child's words, the old and the young in the courtyard burst into laughter.
That evening, the house had just been smoked with mugwort, and the dinner on the He family table was particularly sumptuous.
There are steamed crabs and braised eels.
Stewed chicken soup and pan-fried small crucian carp.
There are also several portions of stir-fried seasonal vegetables and brown sugar tomatoes specially mixed for children.
Of course, Lu Miao is also involved.
The children sat at the small table, mumbling and chattering in children's language while eating.
How old is Minjie, Dabao and Erbao? The three little ones are sitting together, and they can chat without any hindrance.
The adults at the table were eating, chatting occasionally, and their eyes were on the children.
I don’t know whether it was because the food was delicious or because he was in a really good mood these two days. He Hongjin asked cheerfully:
“When are you leaving? I’ll find someone to kill the pig in advance. By then, Bring some more meat, and give some to your aunt and father too.”
What kind of pigs are you killing at this time?
It has only been captured and raised for half a year. Once the contents of the belly are removed, does it weigh fifty kilograms?
Lu Miao raised his head, but before he could speak, Fu Jingyou said first:
"Why kill a pig at this time? The weather is so hot, the road will stink."
Chen Guifen said: "Put more salt on it That’s okay, right? Go ahead and eat it as soon as possible.”
“The pigs are still small and don’t have much meat, so it’s not worth killing them. We’ll talk about it when we come back at the end of the year.”
Lu Miao said directly. Live topic:
"It's so hot, it's not worth covering up."
Fu Jingyou nodded and catered to his wife:
"You can buy everything over there, don't worry about it. "
He Hongjin scratched the back of his head with his black hands and said "uh" without saying anything.
Chen Guifen then said: "Then let me catch a few chickens for you to take with you? Make a small cage and carry them. If you want to eat eggs, leave them for laying. If you want to eat meat, just kill them directly."
Lu Miao's head shook with a double image:
"No, I have eggs at home, just boil a few more to eat in the next few days. As for the two children, there are so many things that I can't take."
This topic has been discussed before.
Chen Guifen might be worried about Lu Miao, so she turned to look at Fu Jingyou.
Fu Jingyou took two mouthfuls of crispy rice porridge and said vaguely:
"I listen to Miaomiao."
He Hongjin glanced at him strangely and said angrily:
"No future."
Fu Jingyou didn't take it seriously and concentrated on eating.
Why do you need so much future?
Just want a wife.
Chen Guifen sighed slightly and said nothing more while picking up food and eating, but she couldn't help but think a little more.
It is said that raising children to provide for old age is not as good as raising children.
Especially for the eldest family, don’t buy them anything during the holidays.
Every time I come back, it would be nice if I don’t empty out my house.
These two things are good, just give them over and don’t want them anymore.
There is really no comparison between people.
When she thought about these things carefully, Chen Guifen felt like she was holding back her breath.
Every aspect is a little uncomfortable.
The children were not allowed to kill pigs, so Chen Guifen killed two more chickens the next day.
There are some for making soup and some for frying tender chicken.
The fragrance of lotus flowers bursts out in the countryside, which is the peak season for lotus pods to mature.
Fu Jingyou carried the basket and dismantled a courtyard door of the He family.
After walking around the mountains enough, we took the children to play in the lake.
Dabao and Erbao sat on the door panel and played in the shallow water with Minjie.
Lu Miao wore a lotus leaf hat on her head and stared from the side.
Fu Jingyou went for a swim in the lake and picked most of the basket of tender lotus pods.
Sitting on the edge with my wife, while staring at the child, I peeled off a few lotus pods and ate them.
Looking at the children who were tired from playing, he lifted the door panel and took his wife and children home.
