Chapter 444 Yi Jue
Chen Ling is playing with the children here.
Sun Yanhong walked up to Wang Susu and talked to her.
She also knew about Wang Siyi, but she didn’t really care.
I just asked with concern how Wang Susu was doing recently, saying that her belly was getting more and more obvious, and maybe she had twins this time.
Wang Siyi was tired of hearing this.
Seeing that Wang Susu had difficulty dealing with this kind of person, she deliberately interrupted: "Sister-in-law, is there a fungus on this tree stump?"
Wang Susu breathed a sigh of relief and said, "Ah, Yes, your brother Ling brought it back from the mountains to let it grow fungus here.”
Now, she no longer hates Sun Yanhong.
But this kind of old woman, who is used to seeing people, is not as good as Qin Qiumei and Zhong Xiaoyun who simply interact with each other.
Now there is Wang Siyi.
After they get to know you, intimacy will feel like genuine intimacy, and they will feel comfortable and casual.
Sun Yanhong was almost interested. Even though Wang Susu knew that she had given her family a lot of money and helped her make a lot of money, they could never get close to her.
"Oh, by the way, speaking of the fungus, it has rained now and the sun is not too hot today. Come and find out if there are any fungus here."
Wang Susu saw the fungus. , suddenly remembered something again.
After it rains, fungus will grow in the shade of a tree or at the base of a wall, in a cool place covered with moss.
“Agaric?”
“Yes, agaric is something that grows on the ground like fungus, but it is much more delicious than the fungus on the tree.
Rain After that, there will be a lot of fungus growing on the mountain.
But when the sun shines, you can’t get it, so you have to pick it quickly.”
Wang Susu smiled and nodded gently, then walked to the base of the wall to see that there was indeed one layer.
This is also due to the abundant water vapor on the farm and the cool environment.
Otherwise, these fungus would have dried up long ago outside.
"Aling, bring us two bowls. We are going to dig some fungus."
"Okay."
Chen Ling asked Hei Wa and the two to take a fancy to Ruirui, and then he took two bowls and went over.
At this time Wang Siyi was looking at the dark brown fungus curiously.
I feel that these things that are full of soil and grass clippings are dirty and look very bad.
Imitate Wang Susu’s example and picked one out with my hands. It was still sticky. I couldn’t help frowning and said: “Brother Ling, sister-in-law, the fungus here is so sticky and dirty. Can it be eaten? ?”
“It’s edible, but don’t look at it. This thing can only grow in really clean places. It won’t grow in disgusting places like stinking ditches... even if it’s cleaned. It’s just scrambled eggs, they’re delicious, much better than fungus.”
Chen Ling said with a smile: "By the way, this thing has a name. It's called Dipi Cai. It's delicious for making dumplings and steamed buns. Have you never tried it?"
"No, anyway. I haven’t eaten anything like this in Wandao.”
Wang Siyi shook her head in confusion. She really had never heard of it.
"Don't worry, it's okay if you haven't eaten it. Fugui definitely doesn't fool people when it comes to food. I'll keep it if you want to eat it."
Sun Yanhong said.
After saying that, she was stunned, and suddenly she felt that this kind of thing could also be put on the restaurant's menu.
The fungus, although dirty, looks very dirty.
But whether making soup, stir-fry, or making dumplings, it is a delicious food.
Although it is a little difficult to clean.
This idea came to her mind, but she did not tell Chen Ling immediately.
The crayfish haven't stabilized yet.
No rush either.
You can add the salted egg first and serve it as a side dish.
"That's right, your brother Ling can fool you about anything, but he is more serious than anyone else about eating."
Wang Susu also said.
"Hahaha, I feel it too. By the way, Brother Ling, why are they all called Fugui?"
"It's a nickname, your sister-in-law also has one..."
"Bah , don’t talk nonsense, why don’t you go and get Sister Sun some wine?”
Chen Ling looked at his wife’s bulging face with embarrassment, and Wang Siyi’s face was full of excitement and curiosity, so she had no choice but to do it. Wisely shut his mouth, chuckled and walked away.
Then, I made two jars of wine for Sun Yanhong, caught some mullet and salmon, and picked some peaches, and then sat down with Grandpa Four to weave a net.
Wang Susu and Wang Siyi also walked out with Ruirui after a while.
Look for those watery fungus on the bluestones on both sides of the ditch in the orchard.
Agaric fungus has always been there, but when the sun is hot, it will be dried and scorched, making it inedible and not so conspicuous.
But that doesn’t mean it was sunburned to death.
This thing is quite drought tolerant.
Usually when it doesn't rain, it looks like it's brown and almost dead against the ground, but as long as it rains, it immediately comes to life and becomes watery and crystal clear.
Most of the orchard is shaded by trees and is close to the ditch. The water flow is constant and the area near the ditch is always wet. The environment is very suitable for the growth of ground fungus.
After the heavy rain of the past two days, not only were snail shells crawling everywhere, but fungus was also growing crazily.
Now when I come over and take a look, I see a large area growing among the layers of green moss. In the grass and in the cracks between stones, the dark brown blossoms are unusually obvious.
Wang Susu and Wang Siyi were picking fungus from the gate to the west, and Ruirui, a little kid, was also picking at it with his little buttocks raised. After a while, they picked up two bowls full. These two bowls were enough for their whole family to eat two meals.
It’s just that fungus is difficult to clean.
Wang Susu and the others guarded the canal and cleaned it several times. They also collected some clean water from the water tower and soaked it in a bucket. They washed back and forth for more than an hour, nearly two hours, before they were completely clean.
Wang Siyi was sweating all over her forehead, panting and saying that her hands were so sore that they were no longer her own.
After eleven o'clock, Gao Xiulan rode over on her bicycle. After sending Wang Zhenzhen off, she went to help Zhao Yubao pack the lunch meal.
It was just a little help, and I didn’t stay there to eat.
After coming to the farm, I was very happy to see them picking up so many fungus.
“Oh, our place is great. Not only is it cool in the summer, but the fungus has not dried up.
It’s just that it’s getting late now. There’s no time to make steamed buns and scramble an egg at noon. Forget it, make more after eating, and I will make buns for you in the afternoon. The buns stuffed with fungus and eggs here are more delicious than the meat ones."
After that, he turned the car. He tied it up at the gate, then picked up the basket, called his eldest grandson, and went to pick up eggs on the hillside. Scrambled eggs with fungus and fungus are a favorite among mountain people.
After washing the fungus, Wang Siyi rubbed her little hands to watch Chen Ling weaving a fishing net. When she heard Gao Xiulan's words, she also led Ruirui to follow.
While no one was there, he asked Gao Xiulan and Wang Susu's nickname in a sly manner.
Said Gao Xiulan told her that she would not tell others.
After a while, Ruirui and I took stones to throw away the rails that were hiding in the grass and screaming non-stop.
After throwing it away, he hugged Ruirui and laughed non-stop, enjoying the fun of pranks.
She looks like a naughty and mischievous girl.
It’s just that soon, extreme joy leads to sorrow.
When I went to the hillside to pick up eggs, I didn’t notice that there was a hen lying in the dark corner of the henhouse. I was pecked so hard on the back of my hand that I almost cried in pain.
"Ouch, did you get the peck? Siyi, don't move, let me see if there is bleeding?"
Gao Xiulan hurriedly put down the basket and came over to take a look.
Ruirui also stood on tiptoe and curiously looked at the back of Wang Siyi's hand.
“It’s okay, auntie, I didn’t peck the skin, it’s just painful.”
Wang Siyi smiled and touched Ruirui’s little head.
"You, you have to watch carefully. There is a henhouse guarded by an old hen. She wants to nest in the nest. She must watch the eggs carefully. Even if she sees a white round stone, she will lick it. Keep it warm under your belly and refuse to let others touch it.
If you pick up the eggs, it will peck you.
But chickens are very clever. If you turn around in a circle and pick up eggs from behind their butt, they won't peck you since they can't see you.
Even if you reach under its belly, it will just move its nest and not even twist its neck.
Come and look. "
Gao Xiulan said, walked behind the chicken coop, reached in, and took out three eggs from under the old hen's buttocks.
These chicken coops are made of bricks. There are small square holes on the four walls of the chicken coop, which is actually the case in many family chicken farms
No matter from the front, back, left, right or any direction, you can put your hand in completely.
“Wow, let me try it too.”
Wang Siyi was so surprised when she saw this that she forgot about the pain on the back of her hand.
I squatted down and reached into the chicken coop, and successfully pulled out two eggs.
Soon the two of them took Ruirui and picked up most of the basket.
"Auntie, how come this chicken coop is like this? Aren't chickens cold in winter?"
After picking up the eggs, Wang Siyi was very confused by the drafty chicken coop.
“This is the place where your brother Ling specially lets the old hens lay eggs, not for them to live in.
Otherwise, you would have to run around the mountains every day, laying eggs everywhere, and picking them up would be very laborious. "It's great."
Gao Xiulan smiled and said, "In addition, I was afraid that they would run to the mountains in the cold weather in autumn and winter and would not return to their nests, so I left a hole in the chicken coop. They wouldn't be able to stay in the cold winter. Live.”
You can't always eat meat in summer, the weather is hot, eat more vegetables, it will look fresher.
For lunch, Gao Xiulan cooked, scrambled eggs with ground fungus, cucumbers, and fried beans.
Wang Siyi had never eaten fungus before, so she tasted it tentatively. As a result, she finished half of the whole dish by herself, leaving the other dishes untouched at all. There are so many good things, I don’t want to leave anymore.
This thing tastes smooth and soft, and tastes like fungus, but much more delicate than fungus. When fried with eggs, it will be full of fragrance in your mouth and have an endless aftertaste.
In the afternoon, without anyone else telling her, she took the bowl and went to dig fungus on both sides of the ditch in the orchard.
Looking forward to the buns with ground fungus and egg filling that Gao Xiulan mentioned.
"Brother Ling, what are you doing, are you not weaving a net?"
"Go and deliver some vegetables to Uncle Zhao's house. They are hiring people and will make a big pot of rice tonight."
< br>Chen Ling smiled, got on his horse, and rushed to the village carrying a basket of vegetables.
After a while, he rode back and asked Gao Xiulan to grab a piece of noodles for him and then sent it over.
The so-called noodles are yeast noodles used for steaming steamed buns.
It has the same function as baking powder and is used to make dough.
After the steamed buns are made, leave a small lump of noodles each time and call it the noodle starter. Use this noodle starter to knead the noodles next time you make steamed buns.
The steamed buns made with noodles are fragrant and chewy.
Zhao Dahai’s mother, Aunt Zhao, heard that their family wanted to steam steamed buns, and wanted to steam a large pot of steamed buns to eat at night. This noodle starter is indispensable.
The weather is hot in summer and dough rises quickly.
A noodle starter can make a large bowl of noodles.
The same goes for Chen Ling’s family, who served noodles early.
After I came back, I simply weaved a fishing net for a while.
I went to help wash the fungus, scramble eggs, and mix stuffing.
Nothing else, he also wanted to eat buns stuffed with ground fungus and egg.
It is not convenient for Wang Susu to work now.
Wang Siyi helped Gao Xiulan knead the dough and roll out the dough...
The whole family was busy making big buns.
When the lid of the pot is lifted and the big white and fat buns come out of the pot, the aroma goes straight to the nose, and when you take a bite, it is fragrant and refreshing, oily but not greasy.
The fungus and egg buns here are truly the best among vegetarian stuffed buns.
It’s been so long since I’ve eaten, Chen Ling ate nine of these fist-sized buns in one go, and he still wasn’t satisfied.
Wang Siyi almost dropped her jaw in shock and kept saying that he was really lively.
Then we talked about the tiger.
Chen Ling plans to deliver the wheat at home to the grain station in the next two days, and then go to the zoo in the provincial capital to have a look.
This is a rare opportunity to visit the zoo with my wife and children.
There will be a lot of rain in the coming weather, making travel inconvenient. In addition, there will be a lot of rain, which will also be a good opportunity for him to deal with the strange fish in the reservoir.
Furthermore, my wife’s belly is getting bigger day by day, and it will be even more inconvenient for her to go out to play in the future.
So for this tiger matter, we still have to go early.
