Mermaid Farming

Chapter 14 New Food

Ren Yu sat at home as a salted fish for two days, feeling that her life was complete.

This kind of day of eating and waiting to die is really too comfortable.

The rest of the family is still busy, like a little squirrel storing food for the winter.

Store food tirelessly.

Ren Yu was bored for two days. They all had their own affairs, and he was the only one doing nothing. There were no mobile phones or computers here. It would be boring after a few days.

Ren Yu went over cheekily, "What are you guys doing?"

He Zeliu didn't give him a good face because he didn't help the family in the past two days, and didn't respond to his questions.

Instead, He Zeyang said, "Work."

Ren Yu: "..." Is there any difference between saying it and not saying it?

He asked around at home, but there was no work for him to do.

Glancing at the rest of the family, Ren Yu sighed and walked up the mountain. This time, he brought back a lot of firewood.

When He Zeliu and He Zeyang saw him picking up the firewood, he couldn't calm down for a while. He saw his face flushed with sunburn, and he looked like he was about to suffer from heat stroke. When he saw them, he smiled silly, "I picked A lot of firewood came down, right where we were before."

He Zeliu said angrily, "Shut up! It's noon, why are you running to the mountains to collect firewood!"

"Hurry up and sit down for me, Siya help me pour you a glass of water." He Zeliu said hastily.

Heat stroke can be a problem sometimes.

Ren Yu watched them circle around him, and immediately felt that it was worth it. He went to the mountain, he had avoided the sun, but the weather was still very hot.

The barrier between them seems to have disappeared.

"Hurry up and drink more water!" He Zeyang also showed disapproval on his face, and he didn't expect that he would actually go to the mountain to cut firewood. If he had known this, he would have given him some work at that time.

Although Ren Yu felt a little dizzy, he felt that he was completely fine.

After finishing the cold boiled water at home, Ren Yu finally didn't feel so thirsty.

"I'm going to boil water." He Zeliu walked quickly into the kitchen with an empty kettle.

"Now go to bed and rest." He Zeyang said calmly.

Let him lie on the bed obediently, while He Zeyang went to their yard, pulled a lot of mint grass in the corner, and came back, some of them rubbed on his body, and the other part, He Zeliu boiled the hot water , Throw some directly into the water.

"How do you feel now?" He Zeyang asked.

Ren Yu blinked, "It's not that uncomfortable anymore."

The sun is too hot.

"Here we come." He Zeliu came in with a bowl of green water, and He Zeyang helped him up, "Drink it."

Ren Yu just smelled its smell, and felt that the smell was very cool, so he swallowed without doubt, and Ren Yu covered his mouth.

The cold and salty taste mixed together, and he finally knew what it felt like.

It's really sour!

He also drank it all in one breath, and his mouth was full of this strange taste.

Cover your mouth to prevent him from spitting it out.

"Okay, you can take a good rest, let's go and bring those firewood back."

Let Si Ya and Xiao Wu guard here, and the rest of the family feel relieved, and continue to do what they just did.

You know, they have a lot of things on weekdays.

Even if they don't go out, they really have a lot of things to do.

The fish returned from fishing, they have to take them out to dry once in a while to prevent the tide from resurging.

Recently, everyone in the family has taken a bath every day, which has led to a sudden increase in the amount of civil ash in their house, which is the fertilizer in their house.

The plan to open up wasteland at home must also be prepared in advance.

When opening up wasteland, it was really a very hard work.

They first had to find a suitable piece of land, and then clean up all the weeds growing on it, pile them together, and let them dry in the sun for two or three days before they could be burned to ashes.

The next step is to pick up all the large and small stones on that piece of ground and go aside.

The big ones are easy, but the small ones may not necessarily find all of them after spending a day.

There are also a lot of stones that are half hidden in the soil and have to be dug out. After this, they usually choose to go to the mountain to dig the soil down and then spread it on top.

It is not an easy task to pick the soil back.

Very hard.

Then mix the ashes stored in their home into the soil, pour water on it, let them moisten for a period of time, and then they can plant some wild vegetables on it.

The ashes of the family for the next period of time are basically brought here and thrown next to the wild vegetables.

Let the soil gradually become fertile.

They don't need to worry here, after all, this place is just their family.

This place, a trip to the town, that is, half an hour, is not really a remote place, but this place is too poor.

Those with conditions moved to villages closer to the town.

There are still some dilapidated houses left here, but they have not been lived in for too long, and most of the houses here are dilapidated.

When those people left, they took all the things they could use with them.

The tiles and thatch on the roof were basically taken away.

They've moved out and won't be coming back.

"Didn't I buy mung beans before? I'll get some to cook mung bean soup later. Cook a little more and let everyone drink a little." He Zeyang said.

When he came back from buying mung beans before, he originally planned to take the mung bean soup with him when his family went out to work, so that they would not suffer from heat stroke when they went out to work.

Sunstroke patients have to go to the town to buy medicine. They go to the town to prescribe medicine, at least it costs hundreds of dollars. How can they waste so much money on this?

Just in case, they all bought some mung beans to cook soup.

The price of mung beans is not very expensive, five cents a catty, and they can eat a catty of mung beans for more than ten days.

Ren Yu wakes up after a nap, feeling refreshed.

When he got up to drink water, he saw Si Ya and Xiao Wu playing beside his bed.

"Brother Ren Yu is awake."

He Zeliu was the first to run in, and said awkwardly, "Are you feeling better?"

Ren Yu said with a smile, "Don't worry, I'm much better now."

"Then come and help cut some chestnuts here."

"Okay."

Ren Yu walked out after drinking the water, taking out the empty water bottle by the way.

He was holding a hatchet, and the kitchen knife was for He Zeyang. They were not used to cutting that cut, and there were already some beside it, which accidentally cut the chestnuts in half.

In fact, these chestnuts are also very delicious when cooked with chicken.

Then think about it, it is impossible to eat the only two hens in their family.

After touching the dozen or so coins on his body, he might as well work hard to make money.

There are quite a few fishermen here. In a village far away, they have a fixed place to fish, which is much better than here.

And the land is also very fertile.

Ren Yu noticed that the shrimps and crabs at home were not eaten by the people here.

Probably will not eat.

There is also a lot of trouble.

Those brought back from fishing, many people smashed those small shrimps and crabs and fed them to chickens.

Ren Yu was doing the things in his hands with one heart and two minds.

They managed to finish the pile of chestnuts, and it was almost time for dinner.

This time, the first person to go out was not He Zeliu, but Ren Yu.

Ren Yu took the pannier in the opponent's hand very familiarly, "The third brother is back, this thing is so heavy, let me help you carry it."

He Zehe gave him a strange look, but still handed him the pannier in his hand, walked in, and made a face for them, "What's wrong with him?"

"I can't take it easy." He Zeyang said.

The corners of He Zejiang's mouth twitched, and he poured himself a glass of water without saying a word.

He didn't care about the things he was looking for in his back basket outside, there were some fish inside.

The fish caught today were not very good, so they were not brought back in a bucket.

And he brought all the things he caught, and he picked them up slowly when he brought them home. He was also very tired from fishing.

But apart from him in the family, the eldest brother can go fishing. Among them, he is the one with the best fishing skills.

The eldest brother went to the town to find work, and he earned more money than going out to fish every day.

Recently, more and more people came here to fish, and they couldn't catch them at all, and the fish they caught were not very good.

It seems that the fish he catches will be less and less.

"Wow! I found it!" Ren Yu's excited voice came from outside.

He Zeyang walked out quickly, "Did you find something?"

"This!" Ren Yu's tone was full of excitement, holding a crayfish in his hand.

He Zeyang: "...feed this kind of thing to chickens, even chickens won't eat it."

Ren Yu: "...do you actually feed chickens with this kind of crayfish?!"

In this time of lack of food, crayfish are also delicious.

They couldn't get enough to eat, let alone how it tasted.

Anyway, the taste of what they eat every day is simply indescribable.

He Zeliu also took a look, "That's right, that kind of food doesn't taste good at all."

Ren Yu threw the crayfish back, put his hands on his hips and said, "It's because you don't know how to eat it!"

"I took a look just now and found that there are still a lot of this kind of crayfish."

They were all pressed at the bottom of the pannier, and he rummaged for a while before finding it.

"Let me make this tonight, it will definitely make you want to eat it."

He Zeyang asked calmly, "Is this kind of thing really edible?"

Ren Yu replied affirmatively, "Of course it is edible!"

And still delicious.

"All right, let's try your handicraft."

Ren Yu simply poured out all the contents of the basket.

I found a bowl and found all the crayfish in it.

It doesn't look like a lot, but when they are put together, there is actually a big bowl full of vegetables.

"Siya, help me pick some hot peppers."

"How much?"

"Probably five or six."

Si Ya looked at him, "How much is five or six?"

He Zeliu stood up, "I know, I'll go with you."
