Li Qingxiu remembered that she had seen a blogger in a modern short video saying that the seeds inside the bitter melon are sweet and the flesh is not bitter after ripening. She was a little curious and wanted to try it.

There are many people who cannot accept the bitter taste of bitter melon, but she is just the opposite. She likes to eat bitter melon, and she can eat it no matter how bitter it is.

She took a bite of the bitter melon. It was indeed not bitter but not sweet either, with just a hint of bitter melon fragrance. She tasted another seed. It had a soft and waxy skin on the surface and was very sweet.

After Li Qingxiu spit out the seeds, she looked at Li Ziyue and asked, "What is this called?" She felt that people here would not call this melon a bitter melon.

Li Ziyue shook his head and said: "I don't know! This is the first time I have seen this kind of wild fruit. My elder brother picked it back when he went hunting with them. How is it? Is it delicious?"

Li Qingxiu was surprised: "You dare to eat fruits you don't know, aren't you afraid of being poisoned?"

"I asked my eldest brother the same thing. He said that if the birds ate the cooked ones, they must be non-poisonous." Li Ziyue said proudly: "My eldest brother is indeed a scholar, very smart."

After she finished speaking, she thought of something and continued to ask. "I asked you if it tastes good? I haven't tasted it yet."

Li Qingxiu handed over the bitter melon. "Try it, especially the red seeds are very sweet."

Li Ziyue took the bitter melon and took a red seed into her mouth. Her eyes lit up instantly. "Yeah, it's sweet."

She also broke off a piece of bitter melon flesh that was soft due to ripeness and ate it, her eyes a little disappointed this time. "The pulp is not as sweet as the seeds." Seeing Qingfeng Li next to her with a look of envy, she handed the bitter melon over.

Li Qingxiu said: "Don't underestimate this pulp, it can also be used for cooking."

Li Ziyue looked unbelieving. "No, this is the first time I've heard that wild fruits can be used in cooking."

If the cubicle hadn't been cleaned, Li Qingxiu would definitely cook it for Li Ziyue to try. Now she can only say: "It's getting late now. Take me to pick it tomorrow and I'll make it for you to try."

Upon hearing this, Li Ziyue said happily: "Okay, then it's a deal. As long as you can really cook it, my father will definitely praise you again."

After Li Ziyue took four wild vegetables and packed them away. Qingfeng Li had already eaten all the seeds in the bitter melon, leaving only the hard seeds.

Li Qingxiu didn't want to throw it away. She washed the seeds and put them away. When things get more stable in the future, I can still plant bitter gourds.

After dinner. Li Qingfeng coaxed Li Qingxiao to sleep, while Li Qingxiu took out a piece of gray linen and lit an oil lamp to make a cross-body bag. She thought it was good to have a cross-body bag.

Sometimes when you see wild vegetables or fruits, you can put them in your satchel instead of carrying a big bamboo basket, which is really inconvenient.

Halfway through, the donkey cart was knocked again. "Pretty girl, I've brought you soup."

When Li Qingxiu opened the car door, it turned out to be the woman in the team. She got off the donkey cart and asked doubtfully: "Sister-in-law, what are you doing?"

What kind of soup should Hao Duanduan give them? Could it be that you have something to ask of yourself? But what can she do as a nine-year-old girl? These people must have thought too highly of her. Just when countless question marks flashed in Li Qingxiu's mind.

The woman spoke: "This is a rabbit that my father went up to the mountain to hunt. I killed it and made it into soup. The two bowls of soup here are to thank you for saving my man's life. I hope you don't dislike it. After all, we are now All I can get is these two bowls of soup."

So that was it. Just when Li Qingxiu was about to refuse, she heard someone calling her. She turned her head and looked, what a guy! More than twenty people came over carrying food.

After they finished speaking, Li Qingxiu realized that they all came to thank her for saving her life. Some also stewed soup, some grilled meat, and some just grilled a snake. If she took away this roasted snake, Qingfeng Li would definitely cry.

Li Qingxiu coughed and said: "I understand everyone's thoughts. I can't finish all the food you sent me. If it's a rare tooth-breaking ceremony, you should leave it to your own family."

Unexpectedly, everyone shook their heads and refused to leave. He also showed that he was not one of those white-eyed wolves with a wolfish heart and a dogged heart.

Li Qingxiu had no choice but to get into the car and bring out two large porcelain basins, and then asked the soup cooks to pour some into the large porcelain basins. Even if she accepted them, they were all stewed, and the rabbit soup and pheasant soup were mixed together. no problem.

At the barbecue restaurant, Li Qingxiu just asked them to tear off a chicken leg or a few pieces of roast rabbit. As for the roasted snake, Li Qingxiu refused to take it away until it died. The woman had no choice but to run back and bring two salted duck eggs to Li Qingxiu.

Li Qingxiu accepted it this time. Salted eggs are also one of her favorite foods. After everyone dispersed, Li Qingxiu saw Li Zhaodi standing not far away.

Just as she was about to speak, Li Zhaodi hurried over and placed a basket of wild vegetables at her feet. Then he lowered his head and said, "This is for you!" Then he turned around and ran back to the cave.

Li Qingxiu already knew that Li Zhaodi was living with Li Dazhuang's family. Silly girl, if she gave this basket of wild vegetables to Da Chen, her situation would be better.

Look at such a big pot of soup and so many barbecues in the car. Li Qingxiu smiled and shook her head, now tomorrow's lunch was secured.

At this time, the cave was very lively. In the morning, Li Zheng arranged for more than a dozen strong men to build six simple earth stoves at the entrance of the cave, three on each side of the wall. Each family will prepare dry firewood when needed.

At this time, the last batch of rabbit meat soup was simmering in six earthen stoves, and those who had stewed the meat first had already drank it. Although everyone has obtained prey, it is impossible for a family of more than a dozen people to share a wild animal and eat all the meat they want.

It can only be eaten with soup cakes, or adding more wild vegetables to increase the weight would be great. They drank the delicious broth happily and felt extremely happy at the moment.

Those who didn't go hunting had no broth to drink. They could only eat the bitter wild vegetable soup while looking at the meat-eating families with envy. They all secretly decided to go hunting with Li Lei tomorrow. They Drink broth, too.

When Li Yuanbao saw that other people's children had meat to eat, but he could only drink wild vegetable soup, he started making trouble again. Mrs. Liu knew that Mrs. Li and Li Yaozu were in a bad mood, so she quickly coaxed Li Yuanbao to stop making trouble, but Li Yuanbao wanted to eat meat, and he would make trouble if there was no meat.

Mrs. Li was so annoyed by her grandson that she cut a salted chicken leg and asked Mrs. Liu to cook it in wild vegetable soup and give it to Li Yuanbao to eat.

Li Yuanbao stopped crying when he saw the chicken legs. While staring at the salted chicken legs in the wild vegetable soup, he asked, "Dad, would you like to catch hares tomorrow too?"

As soon as these words came out, Mrs. Liu quickly covered Li Yuanbao's mouth with her hand. Sooner or later, this little brat would die from his mouth.

Sure enough, Li Yaozu's face became increasingly gloomy. Mrs. Li was worried that her grandson would be beaten, so she quickly changed the subject: "After Li Wei gave you the medicine, did you feel better?"
