Chapter 74 A slap in the face
A little daughter-in-law, whose belly was not yet showing, raised her hand and was a little embarrassed to say: "Actually, aunt, I think this smells quite delicious."
I didn't know I was pregnant before, and I didn't think much about the vague changes in my taste. But now I know what's going on.
When you hear white peaches, pregnant people will indeed have a strange taste. Some people even like to smell car exhaust when they are pregnant.
"That's up to you, as long as you don't vomit, you can eat whatever you want."
The little daughter-in-law was very happy: "Thank you, aunt~"
At this point, no one in the villagers doubted it anymore.
However, no one had any doubts about Baitao testing poison for the villagers, let alone the fact that Baitao was hiding out to eat Xiaozao.
The matter was resolved, but Bai Dashan was still there. Baitao was puzzled: "Da Shan, do you have anything else to do?"
"Auntie, can you please stop coming in person for things like this in the future?" Bai Dashan is the village chief. If he doesn't talk about this matter, the villagers will blame him.
Baitao looked at Bai Dashan, what do you mean, do you want someone else to come?
Bai Dashan continued: "If there is really any need to test the poison, there are so many adults in our village, but you can handle it better than my aunt."
It's true that she said so much, but she... A flash of embarrassment flashed across Baitao's face, and she hurriedly said: "Okay, okay, let's talk about it next time."
And next time?
Say more?
Bai Dashan was not fooled and disagreed: "Auntie, we all know that you feel sorry for us, but you are our aunt, and our Taohua Village is one. There is absolutely no reason why you should shoulder everything alone. .”
"Auntie, you are an aunt, but you haven't grown up yet. We are all adults."
Baitao: "...Okay, okay." She said to herself, I don't have much to carry.
"Also, grandma, you are precious, don't save people carelessly next time." People in Taohua Village would always talk about her being a hostage to replace someone.
Baitao blinked: "Ah? When?"
Bai Dashan clapped his fingers: "Last time you sacrificed your life to save two people who didn't know where they came from."
As soon as he said that, Baitao remembered it. The corners of her mouth twitched. Could she say that it was a misunderstanding?
The snail noodles were prepared quickly. When the smell of snail noodles was everywhere in the camp, the smell seemed less strong.
As I smelled it, I didn't even feel the smell anymore.
Baitao had just taken two bites, and he was already salivating. He craned his neck to wait.
When Bai Duoxi brought her portion, Baitao was so happy that her eyes almost closed with laughter.
So happy to finally eat it!
When other people saw it, they looked forward to the snail noodles even more.
My aunt and grandma all want to eat it, so the taste is definitely not wrong.
Baitao never imagined that one day she would lead a group of ancient people to eat snail noodles in the mountains and forests.
Like Baitao, the villagers either lay with two poached eggs or one fried egg, carrying lunch boxes, squatting, standing, or gathering together in twos and threes.
After the first bite, everyone looked at each other and thought, well, it still tastes quite stinky.
After taking the second bite, I thought about it carefully. Well, it tasted pretty good.
After the third bite, everyone's eyes couldn't help but light up. Well... although it smells bad, it's really delicious.
At the fourth, fifth, or sixth bite, everyone was immersed in eating, and no one could care about wondering why the snail noodles smelled so bad.
Smelly?
Why does it stink? This is what snail noodles taste like!
The people in Taohua Village wear camouflage fabric clothes, use lunch boxes, and eat snail noodles. No one would know that except Baitao, they are all ancient people. If a modern person suddenly passes by at this moment, he will definitely wonder why there are a group of migrant workers eating snail noodles together in the ravine.
The four of Bai Dongdong were in confinement. In the past three days, they drank crucian carp soup, ate pork ribs, and had five eggs in one meal, which they had never dared to think about before.
There is no need for their mother-in-law (mother) to talk about it, they all feel that they are living a fairy-like life now.
But today at noon, looking at their confinement meals and smelling the stinky but indescribably alluring aroma of food outside, their appetites were somewhat different for some reason.
They heard that the food was in full swing outside. Even though they had never eaten before, they felt particularly hungry.
Just, I want to take a bite of snail noodles for no reason.
After Aunt Six finished eating the snail noodles, she entered the tent and saw that the white rice seedlings had not eaten much, so she asked: "What's wrong, aren't you hungry?"
Bai Hemiao shook her head and said a little embarrassedly: "Mom, is the snail noodles delicious?"
"It's delicious." Aunt Six said with a smile: "Not to mention, although the taste is a bit special, it is indeed delicious."
After saying that, seeing Bai Hemiao's envious expression, she immediately knew what was going on.
"Since my aunt said that it is not suitable for you to eat during confinement, don't think about it. This is fish, meat and eggs. It is a good thing that others can't even think of."
"As a person, you must be self-aware and not be greedy..."
"Mom, I know, I'm just curious. Yes, I'm just curious about the taste of snail noodles."
Bai Hemiao is not that ignorant, and she is even more embarrassed to say that she is greedy. As she spoke, the chopsticks in her hands moved faster.
These meals can't be wasted. Although my aunt sent some things on the pretext of everyone's meritorious service, she can feed her child in confinement with peace of mind.
But everyone knows that whether it is meritorious or not, it is the aunt who thinks of ways for everyone along the way. They are just digging rocks and cleaning wood, so there is no credit for them.
Bai Hemiao looked at the child lying in the thick swaddling clothes, and felt grateful again. Even the swaddling clothes were given by her aunt.
Although she gave birth in the wilderness, she and the child were not punished at all. They were well fed and clothed.
Baitao ate slowly. When she finished eating, she handed the lunch box to Bai Dashan aside and asked casually: "How was it? Is the snail noodles delicious?"
This kind of carbohydrates that are heavy in oil and salt is hard to taste bad.
Bai Dashan nodded and said with a smile: "It's delicious."
Today's after-dinner fruits are tangerines, three for each villager, and six white peaches.
She picked one up with her little hands and asked while peeling it off: "Don't you think it smells bad?"
Bai Dashan shook his head: "It doesn't stink, it doesn't stink at all."
He seemed to have forgotten that he caught Baitao eating Xiao Zao by smelling the smell in the first place.
At this moment, Bai Dashan would not admit that he thought the smell was someone having sex nearby.
“But you can’t eat too much of this thing.”
Bai Dashan nodded in agreement, just give it a try, how can you eat it openly?
Baitao finished speaking, and then muttered: "Those who are heavy in oil and salt will easily gain weight."
Bai Dashan was confused: "Auntie, isn't it bad to be fat?"
Only people who live a good life and have enough oil and water will become fat.
