Chapter 209: It’s Hard to Catch Prey Now
Wen Mengran said happily: "Thank you, grandma."
Here, Shen Xue Ning and Grandpa Shen picked tea leaves from the second tea tree, and then prepared to move to another "position".
Grandpa Shen shouted, "Let's go inside."
Grandma Shen responded, "Here we go, here we go. You guys go first, we'll catch up soon."
After walking for more than a minute, the group ran into some villagers, who greeted them warmly: "Why are there so many of you going up the mountain?"
Grandpa Shen smiled and said, "They wanted to see the tea leaves in the mountains, so we took them up the mountain. Why did you go up the mountain so early?"
The villager said, "I went to see if there was any prey in the trap I set, but to my surprise there was nothing."
Grandpa Shen said: "It's hard to catch prey now."
"Yes, everyone has become smarter." The villagers smiled and said, "You guys go pick tea leaves. I'll go back first."
"Okay." Grandpa Shen made way and the villagers went down the mountain.
Grandpa Shen introduced the man to He Sheng and then continued walking forward.
After walking for a while, Grandpa Shen pointed to the dead tree that fell on the ground and said, "There are a lot of fungus on that tree. Go pick them. We are picking tea nearby."
Grandma Shen replied, "Okay." Then she took a few girls and walked towards the dead tree.
The dead tree is a section of a sycamore tree. Such trees are in a shady and humid environment and are prone to growing wood ear mushrooms after rain.
At this time, the dead trees were covered with dense wood ears, which looked pleasing to the eye.
Grandma Shen said, "We pick the big ones and leave the small ones to grow. We'll pick them next time, or give them to other people in the village."
"Yeah." Wen Mengran and He Yina nodded together.
A few people picked the fungus and found a bunch of dandelions nearby. The dandelions were particularly fresh and tender. They were great for stir-frying or serving cold dishes when they were brought home.
Grandma Shen took everyone to pick dandelions.
Here, the three of them have already picked one third of the tea leaves from the tea trees.
Suddenly Grandpa Shen found a big tea ear: "Ningning, this is a tea ear, you can eat it, pick it and try it."
Tea ears, also known as tea ears, are a kind of fruit of the tea tree.
Its taste is lightly sweet and slightly bitter at first, but as it grows, a thin layer of skin will be shed on the back, and the bitterness will fade or even disappear, reaching the optimal taste.
The ripe tea ears are white or slightly red, sweet and crispy.
The tea leaves that Shen Xue Ning saw at this moment were slightly red in color and looked very delicious.
"Let me try it." Shen Xue Ning reached out and picked the tea ears, put them into her mouth, and chewed them gently. "It's crispy and slightly sweet. It's delicious."
Grandpa Shen said: "This is a mature tea ear. If it is not mature, it will be extremely bitter."
"It's a pity there is only one." He Sheng also wanted to try it.
"There are not many tea ears." Grandpa Shen smiled slightly, "Next time I see tea ears, I'll give them to you to try."
He Sheng smiled and said, "Okay."
Wen Mengran pushed aside a bush and cheered as if she had discovered a treasure: "Wow, there's a nest of eggs here!"
Grandma Shen went to have a look and said, "There really is a nest of eggs, more than a dozen of them. Ranran, you are in for a treat."
Wen Mengran asked expectantly, "What delicious food can you make with eggs?"
"You can make steamed egg custard or fry it. There are many ways to eat it." Grandma Shen said as she picked up the eggs and shook them. If they made a loud noise, they were bad.
Fortunately, the weather is cool now and the eggs are good to eat.
He Yina said enviously: "You are so lucky, you actually picked up a nest of pheasant eggs."
Wen Mengran said, "You should also look through the bushes more often, there are treasures there."
He Yina smiled and nodded: "I think so too."
After picking up the eggs, everyone moved to another location. This time He Sheng tasted the tea ears as he wished. His tea ears were also ripe, sweet and delicious.
He Sheng commented: "Not bad."
"Let's go pick a tea tree." Grandpa Shen led everyone into the mountains.
Suddenly, a wild rabbit ran past.
"Habney!" He Yina shouted excitedly.
The hare ran so fast that it disappeared in the blink of an eye.
He Yina said: "I actually saw a hare. Are there many other animals in this mountain?"
Grandma Shen said, "There are a lot of pheasants and rabbits, as well as a lot of other animals. Now the weather is not very warm, so they are not active very often. In the middle of the year, the villagers will not dare to come up the mountain."
He Yina looked around cautiously: "Are you saying there are large wild animals in this mountain?"
Grandma Shen said: "Yes, but it is deep in the mountains and is unlikely to appear in these places. Don't worry."
"That's good." He Yina patted her chest.
The group walked and picked along the way until noon, when everyone's pockets were full and they were ready to go home.
"Let's go, down the mountain. We've gained a lot today." Grandpa Shen said happily.
"Let's go down the mountain. Are we going down the mountain now? I haven't had enough fun yet." He Yina said reluctantly.
"We can go up the mountain again in another season." Grandpa Shen said.
"Okay, you can go down the mountain this time." He Yina carried a backpack and followed everyone down the mountain happily.
The others also returned with a full load.
After returning home, Shen Xue Ning immediately went to work, while the others stayed at home to do their own things.
He Sheng, He Yina and their assistants went to set up the temporary laboratory and started to work.
Grandma Shen and the others washed vegetables and helped prepare lunch. At noon they ate wild vegetables picked from the mountains today.
Grandpa Shen went to prepare to fry tea by himself. He first built a stove with bricks, put an iron pot on it, brought some firewood, lit the fire, washed the pot thoroughly, then burned the pot dry, poured the tea leaves into the pot, and fry them directly with his hands.
While the tea was being fried, Shen Xue Ning came over to watch and take a video.
Grandpa Shen washed his hands carefully, then reached into the pot and started to work.
First, spread the tea out, and keep spreading it out to avoid uneven heating. Some of the tea will be fried, while some will still be fresh. Such fried tea will definitely not taste good.
Shen Xue Ning asked Shen Xue Ning to take a close-up photo. The tea-frying technique is not common in modern times and it is rare to see it now, so it needs to be recorded well.
After frying the tea for a while, Grandpa Shen began to pick up the tea leaves and drop them in mid-air, repeating the process over and over again.
The aroma of tea begins to dissipate, refreshing the heart.
He Sheng came over here and stood beside everyone watching Grandpa Shen stir-fry tea: "Brother is really amazing, he knows everything."
"I can't compare to you. You are the more powerful one." Grandpa Shen said modestly.
"How can I be so great? I just went to the mountains and I didn't know anything." He Sheng said modestly.
The two old men were being humble to each other.
