The years when I opened a farmhouse in my hometown

"Anchor, can I bake some sweet potatoes to eat next time? We are hungry and want to eat it very much." A few people from the first batch of tourists took the lead in booing. They came at the beginning and planned to stay for a long time. The kind that intends to live for half a month.

They participated in the grinding of rice noodles and bean curd two days ago. Today, they were lucky enough to eat the rice noodles they ground and used them to make fragrant and oily steamed pork. They felt that the hard work was worth it.

At least, this hard work was used on myself, unlike other tourists, who were more fierce than tigers in one meal, and all the delicious tamales went to other people's mouths.

This thing has passed through my own hands, and I feel different when I eat it, and I feel a sense of accomplishment.

When I heard the anchor say to the live broadcast in a serious manner, those tourists who can't eat tamales are a little bit sad: I am happy to see you are unhappy.

After getting along for a few days, they gradually became familiar with Shen Xiaoyun, and found that as long as the request was not excessive, Shen Xiaoyun's attitude was very soft when it came to food.

Well, it's nice to talk.

Of course, sometimes it’s still very picky (this is a common certification of loyal fans, and no refutation is accepted.)

"Okay, there are still roasted sweet potatoes, and I will eat them at noon tomorrow." As part of the staple food for lunch, Shen Xiaoyun thought to himself that it could not only meet the needs of tourists, but also solve the ration problem.

The tourists who got the response were overjoyed.

"I saw a lot of snails in the paddy field. Can this be eaten?" There were quite a few people squatting on the ridge to eat. They took a casual look and saw that there were many snails in the paddy field.

That's not to mention, they also saw loaches, small carp, what kind of fairy rice field is this, they couldn't help but want to roll up their trouser legs and go down to touch the fish.

Since these are raised in paddy fields, they must be wild, and the taste of wild and artificially raised is different.

The tourists who were just looking at the sea of ​​flowers silently joined the ranks of foodies. There is no way, there are so many good ingredients in front of them, and I am really sorry for telling them not to eat them.

"There is also loach in it, which can be deep-fried!"

"Little carp stewed in fish soup. It's super delicious. Can the anchor eat these? I can't bear to go back now. I feel very uncomfortable if I don't eat it."

"I want to eat too. After hearing what you said, I think I can still eat a little more."

"You should have made a special trip to see Huahai. Let me tell you, there are three kinds of the most delicious food here: one is the fish and shrimp in the stream of Huahai. The river shrimp is as big as the tiger shrimp outside. The body is very fat. Needless to say, the shrimp meat is delicious. I dare say that the shrimp here is the best shrimp I have ever eaten. Of course, besides the shrimp, the fish is also delicious. I have been here for so long and ate it once. Second, it is the snail meat. The snail meat here is bigger than the outside. The snail meat is tender and fat. Stir-fried with hot and sour peppers, tsk tsk, it is spicy and refreshing. The tender and juicy snail meat is delicious when eaten in the mouth. Third, it is the wild mushrooms in the mountains. I have been here for so long because it hasn’t rained yet, so I haven’t eaten them yet. Although I haven’t eaten them, I can imagine the taste.” The male tourist squatted next to the female tourist By the side, he was beaming with joy.

"Why are you telling me so much?"

And, do I know you well?

The female tourist wondered if this person might be the host's entrustment, and all she said was food that pierced her heart. Isn't this meant to challenge her limit, let her relax, and let herself eat a few more meals?

"Actually, I told the anchor to let him improve the food for us."

"I also ate what this guy said. We rushed here to watch the anchor's live broadcast. In order to seek the true meaning of food, we came here specially."

In fact, after talking so much, it’s still for food, right?

"Then what do you mean now, let us mention it?" The female tourist quickly understood the intentions of these male tourists.

The male tourist touched his nose with a guilty conscience. He felt that they were all old fritters, and told Shen Xiaoyun that the effect might not be as expected.

"The anchor will give the beauty face."

Those female tourists also wanted to eat some game. Originally, she planned to go back after watching the sea of ​​flowers, but now she was thinking of eating at night, and it would be good to go back tomorrow morning.

"Okay, there are a lot of snail meat in the paddy field, it's a good dish, let's make it tomorrow at noon, and we'll pick some up in the afternoon." Shen Xiaoyun heard that the tourists wanted to eat snails, and agreed without saying a word.

He was worried about the three meals a day for the tourists, and they offered it, which was exactly what he wanted.

"There are many small snails in the pond. If you want to eat them, you can go and touch some in the afternoon. Last time, some tourists said that they prefer that kind of small snails." Although people in their village don't eat that kind Small snails, tourists like to eat, they are still willing to entertain.

The female tourist was a little disappointed when she heard Shen Xiaoyun explain that she would only eat snails at noon tomorrow.

"I also like to eat small snails. The small ones are sucked on the shell, and the sauce inside is sucked out together with the meat. I think the snail meat is a bit older than the snails." The tourist next to him heard that there was something to eat, Also joined the discussion.

"Shall we also go to pick up snails?"

Shen Xiaoyun smiled and said, "Yes, if everyone is willing to help pick it up, it should be much faster. As you can see, everyone in the village has gone to help build houses. Except for me, an idler, no one has time to pick up snails. Escargot is also a time-consuming job, but it’s not tiring. If you want to help, you can help. If you are afraid of insects and leeches in the water, just watch on the shore. When you have to deal with it, everyone will help.”

"It's okay to pick up snails. I picked them up last time. I'm good at this and I have experience." The male tourists are still very interested in going to the paddy fields.

As for the tourists who came to see the sea of ​​flowers in the past two days, they were very confused. They came out to see the sea of ​​flowers, and now they have to go to the paddy fields?

Seeing the bewildered expressions of many tourists, Shen Xiaoyun also felt a little inappropriate, and added, "Of course, those who don't want to go can stay in their dormitories, or play here. It's just that everyone should not run around at will. There are many ponds in the village. , the water is deep and muddy, and there are wild animals infesting the back mountain, if you really want to go, you must tell me in advance, and I will let someone take you into the mountain."

The tourists were stunned when they heard it, but they also knew that it was the anchor who was worried about their safety, so they reminded them.

"Okay, anchor, we know."

"I'm going to get the tools now. Those who want to go can start now. If there is enough time in the afternoon, I can take everyone to the winery and miso shop in the village." Shen Xiaoyun told the tourists about the afternoon itinerary.

Because there are a lot of tourists, there are probably a lot of snails needed, so Shen Xiaoyun brought all the buckets and baskets at home.

The male tourist who was already an old fritter also helped Shen Xiaoyun a lot.

"Anchor, what are you doing with so many pots and buckets? It's so troublesome. Just bring a few snakeskin bags and you'll be done." Tourists who were already familiar with where these bags are stored spontaneously brought these tools.

The corners of Shen Xiaoyun's mouth twitched as he watched, but fortunately, there were some highly motivated tourists, otherwise he was the only one talking, and no one came to cheer him on, the scene would probably have been embarrassing.

With these people taking the lead, many of the later tourists also integrated into this atmosphere and followed behind with tools, while a group of tourists stayed in the yard to play.

There were nearly [-] people who planned to pack their bags and leave.

Shen Xinyue is already a mature customer service part-time front desk and tour guide, skillfully arranged the car to send them away, and counted the number of people.

After sending off the group of people, Shen Xinyue asked Li Qianqian. After being told that there would be tourists arriving after [-]:[-] pm, she felt relieved to follow the large group to pick up snails.

The last time Shen Xinyue actually went to the paddy field bravely. At that time, her little sisters were fooled by her. She felt that as the host, it would be better not to be silent, so she went to the paddy field.

After going down, Shen Xinyue discovered that she actually had a man's heart hidden under the lady's skin.

The paddy field is not as scary as she imagined. The snail, loach and small carp are very attractive to her. If she catches them, they can become top-notch delicacies.

It's not a problem to be able to finish two plates at once, but the premise is that the anchor is willing to feed her...

Shen Xinyue, who had nothing to do, saw a lot of people in the paddy field picking up snails with their trousers on their legs, took off their shoes, and followed.

"Fuck! I didn't expect there to be a ruthless girl here!" The male tourist, who was fishing in the water, suddenly felt the basket in his hand sink. He saw a large handful of snails thrown into the basket in his hand, and then turned back At first glance, she was actually a girl with fair skin and long legs.

"What's the matter, girl, girls still have to eat." Anyway, she likes to eat, if that's the case, then pick up more.

There were many female tourists who came with them. Most of them stood on the shore and watched. They were not as courageous as Shen Xinyue, and they were quite repulsed by the paddy fields. If they were bitten by leeches or something, it would really be worth the candle .

So they looked at, or saw that the snail was bigger, and pointed it out, telling their boyfriends or male tourists who were picking snails to pick them up quickly.

Watching the snails go into the basket one by one, the satisfaction of the harvest greatly stimulated the psychology of many tourists. This kind of thing is like picking up a big basket of good things for nothing, so beautiful in my heart.

Moreover, there were still some loach in the paddy field. The little crucian carp, Shen Xiaoyun, said to raise it for a while, and then catch it when the rice was harvested. They could only turn their target to loach.

The loaches here are all fat, fleshy, and particularly strong. It looks like they are well-raised, and they must be delicious when they are fried.

Or make a spicy hot pot, which is also a very good choice.Many tourists who were catching loach also began to discuss various delicious ways of loach. Everyone who talked about it followed suit, and they would never give up if they didn't catch the loach in this field.

These are all good dishes.

The tourists went to the paddy fields to pick up snails, and the netizens who silently watched these things became excited. Seeing many tourists take off their shoes and go to the paddy fields, they also felt itchy. Let it go, as if putting it in your own pocket, satisfaction, excitement, and indescribable happiness filled the whole chest.

"Anchor! Brighten your eyes! In front of you, about two meters in front of you, there is a big loach, hurry up and catch it for me! Hurry up! What kind of snails are you picking up? ! The oil-boiled loach looks so pretty, look, don’t worry about it, just run away! But I’m so anxious to death!”

"Anchor! Anchor! There is a big fish behind your feet, you can catch it, you can catch it, it can be used as a dish! Steamed is very good, we don't blame you if you catch it and hide in the house!"

"Why are you so excited? Didn't you see the anchor? Can't you hear it or see it? The anchor is all on picking snails, preparing for everyone's lunch tomorrow. How can I have time to catch fish and loaches? That's not a waste of time." Is it? If I face hundreds of mouths waiting for food every day, I will panic every day."

"I really want to go there now, and go to the field with the anchor to touch the snails. I have watched it for so long, and I have watched the anchor touch the snails twice, and this is the third time, and I still haven't been able to eat them. anxious."

"I still want to go to the host to grab a meal as always!"

…………

After changing several paddy fields, Shen Xiaoyun saw that the ones picked up were almost the same, so she took everyone ashore first, and also in the drainage ditch on both sides of the paddy field, washed the mud on the feet first with water, and then carried the shoes barefoot go back.

In this weather, it is not cold to be barefoot. The soil on the ridge is soft, soft and comfortable to step on, but sometimes people grin their teeth in pain when they step on small stones.

"It's quite clean here. I'm afraid there will be glass or nails on the road."

"There shouldn't be any here. This area is all paddy fields, and people go out every day. I often see people in the village barefoot. If there is glass, then it's okay."

"I also saw the anchor walking in the front with bare feet, walking so calmly, so I felt relieved to walk barefoot, otherwise, I really wouldn't dare."

The barefooted group returned to the small road in the village and set foot on the familiar gravel road. These gravels were small pebbles, and it was so sour to step on the soles of the diaphragm.

Put the picked snails into the pool, add some water, raise them for a day and a night, spit out the sand in the stomach, and deal with them tomorrow, and they will be cleaner when they are eaten.

The loaches were also caught this time, and it was enough to make two hard dishes.

"The snails are picked up. I'll go to the riverside and near the pond to touch the snails. There are mussels by the river. Does anyone want to eat mussels?" Also very different.

"Yes, yes! I want to eat mussels! The fried and spicy ones are the best, and go best with rice!"

"I want to eat, too!"

"Add me one!"

……

Shen Xiaoyun counted the number of people in her heart, and there were about a dozen people who reported the number at once. Shen Xiaoyun really didn't expect that there would be so many people who like to eat mussels.

"You are not afraid of parasites. I dare not eat this one that is said to have parasites." A female tourist whispered.

In fact, this kind of bullfrog is the same as the farmed bullfrog. Some people say that there are parasites, but there are still many people who eat it.

"A lot of river mussels outside are farmed, just like crabs, with very few parasites. As long as they are processed well, there is usually no problem. And I saw that the water quality here is really good, which is better than that of many tourists I have seen. The place is much better, and there should be no parasites." The person who likes to eat river mussels explained to the female tourist.

"I ate the snail last time, and I handled it myself. It was very clean and I didn't see any parasites."

"I just don't know whether to eat the mussels I caught today or save them for tomorrow. Hey, I can't wait to get rid of such a good thing right away. It makes me feel uncomfortable to leave it there."

"Just ask the anchor later and you'll know."

Holding the tools and putting on the shoes, she planned to go to the river to pick up mussels, and after hearing the requests from the tourists, Shen Xiaoyun felt that these tourists really played the role of foodie to the fullest.

"If you want to eat, I can make it for you at night. We have mussels everywhere here. By the river and in the pool, we catch fish every year to pump water, and they are all on the shore." Shen Xiaoyun also felt very strange. I don't have the habit of eating mussels.

I remember that every summer, as long as there is a drought, the water level of the pond and the river will drop, and there will be a lot of mussels exposed on the bank. I took the shells of those mussels and used them to cut leeks and hogweed...

If you say this, will you be chased and beaten by tourists who like to eat river mussels?

"So much? Don't you eat?"

A tourist asked in amazement: "When we were young, we had a lot of mussels there, and they were all big ones. Each of them was like a bread crab, and each weighed four or five catties. At that time We will also pick up some to cook and eat. Now the water in the pond is very dirty. Let alone eating, I don’t even want to wash the clothes. I guess this thing is almost gone. I haven’t seen it for a long time. Occasionally I saw some for sale in the supermarket."

"There are still more in my hometown. If you see them, it's like picking up a fish for nothing. Take it back and cook and eat it."

"The water quality in my hometown is not good. Everyone doesn't go to the pond to wash vegetables. The pond used to wash clothes and vegetables has become a mop, and the river mussels have not been seen. Alas, the environment is not good. Hope the anchor You must take good care of this place, don’t end up being dirty everywhere like ours.”

"That's right, watching you here is like seeing my hometown when I was a child. But to be honest, your place here is more primitive than my hometown 20 years ago." The tourist said very euphemistically.

This topic caused everyone to laugh, but everyone's laughter was joyful and friendly.

"Well, I also hope that this environment can continue forever, and I also hope that every tourist who comes here will take good care of it, so that everyone can see the original appearance of our Yunshui Village for a long time." Shen Xiaoyun walked ahead and joined The topic of environmental protection.

He also saw some reports that some internet celebrity check-in points were destroyed by some tourists, and all the years of painstaking efforts were turned into ruins in one fell swoop. Just seeing the photos of that scene made me feel inexplicably distressed and sad.

They, Yunshui Village, must not step into such a footsteps.

Fortunately, most of the tourists he has met so far are quite good, and many of them are also aware of this aspect. Everyone's quality is also good, and Shen Xiaoyun is also consciously instilling in everyone to care for the environment of Yunshui Village and protect the environment. For the flowers, plants and trees here, everyone is also willing to realize the awareness of mutual supervision.

"Anchor, don't worry, if I find anyone who breaks the flowers and plants here, I will expose him!"

"Let's supervise each other. The scenery here is indeed very good. If it is destroyed by outsiders like us, it will really be a big loss. Every time I see online reports, I want to beat up those who have no quality."

"I was also very angry when I saw it, but you don't have to worry, anchor. Although I can't control others, at least I can do it, and I won't destroy every plant and tree here. Of course, if you allow it, then Nevermind."

Shen Xiaoyun found that these tourists were really interesting, and they were all very likable.

"Okay, then please everyone."

A group of people came to the river, just as Shen Xiaoyun said, in the shallow water, many mussels were lying in the water, and the hard black shells were faintly visible.

Moreover, the mussels here are much bigger than what they saw in the supermarket, each of them is like a big rock, and it can't be seen that they are mussels at all.

"This is a mutated netted melon, why is it so big? This one can be fried on a plate, right?" Tourists said that they still have too little experience, maybe because they have lived in the city for a long time and have not seen the world?

"I remember seeing it when I was a child. It was only that big. The biggest one was a little bigger than the mouth of a bowl. This one is even bigger than a plate. Did it live for many years?" The female tourists were surprised and stood on the shore. Looking at the big clam shells lurking in the clear water.

It's really a giant clam.

"Will there be pearls? Is there any difference between this kind of river mussel and the kind in the sea? I heard that there are also freshwater pearl mussels now. You said we will fish some out later, will there be pearls in it?"

"Pearls, there should be. I remember we had pearls in our place, but a very small one, as big as a fish eye, but not round enough."

After talking here, the tourists fell into an excited atmosphere, and everyone wanted the anchor to get more.

"Okay, no problem." Standing on the bank, Shen Xiaoyun first looked at the situation on both sides of the river bed, and chose a place with relatively few aquatic plants and trees on the bank.

"Don't go into the water. The river bed here looks low, and there are silt and sand in some places. I'll do it later." After settling down the tourists, Shen Xiaoyun took the tool he brought, a penny, and the front end to help a A scythe, this was something he thought of on the spur of the moment.

Anyway, I always fish, as long as I hook it to the shore, I can pick it up.

These mussels are large in size, their shells are hard, and the surface is very slippery. There are some dark green moss and green mud. They are slippery when hooked with a sickle, and they make harsh scratching sounds when they collide.

"This sound is really harsh."

"It must be very heavy. I think the anchor's bamboo pole is bent."

"How old is this adult mussel? It's the first time I've seen such a big one. I seem to have heard the anchor say that they don't eat mussels and snails here. These mussels don't know how to raise them. It has been for many years. Will the meat get old?"

"It doesn't matter how old it is, anyway, it looks like a lot of meat, and it must be delicious when stir-fried."

"Put some chili, cumin, fragrant!"

"It's also good to make spicy hotpot."

……

Shen Xiaoyun picked all the big ones, and he caught six in total. He thought that since there are tourists who like to eat them, he should eat the big ones first, and keep the small ones for a while. When tourists come later, he can eat a few more. .

Pulling the mussel to the bank with a sickle, Shen Xiaoyun went to the river to pick up a few stones to step on, and scooped up the mussel.

As soon as the clam was in his hands, the shell was very hard and slippery, because the shape was oval with a scallop-like curvature, the surface was smooth, and it was extremely difficult to handle. Shen Xiaoyun took it once, and the clam shell still slipped in his hand.

One is because it is really slippery, and the other is because the clam shell is much heavier than he imagined.

This mussel is as heavy as a ten-pound watermelon.

One by one was picked up to the shore, and tourists came to watch and take pictures, amazed.

"You guys help put them into baskets or baskets, and I'll go touch some snails." Shen Xiaoyun is still not at ease to let tourists go into the water to touch snails, and Shen Xiaoyun doesn't plan to go down, so he fishes some places that are within reach. There are a lot of snails, just touch a little of these snails.

Just give tourists a taste.

The tourists watched the big clams with shiny black shells for a long time, and some even poked their shells with their fingers curiously.

"It's closed tightly, so you can't see the pearl inside."

"The pearl should be inside the meat, you have to pry the clam shell open."

"This one should be very heavy, and there's a lot of meat. It's a rare game. Look at the river, it's so clear, it's cleaner than the ones farmed outside. There must be no parasites or anything. Stir fry the river at night. Clam meat, you are not allowed to snatch it from me."

This is not certain.

There is no rule that the anchor is not allowed to eat it, so what if they just eat it?

"I'll give it a try." A male tourist weighed it with both hands first, and found that the mussel was still quite heavy: "One weighs about seven or eight catties, and it's hard to hold. It's slippery like a snot on the outside." slippery."

This description is really disgusting enough.

The female tourist took a step back subconsciously.

"I'll try to see if I can break it open." This male tourist is also a ruthless person. After finding that it was difficult to handle, he wanted to try to break open the two tightly closed clam shells of the river clam with his bare hands.

If he wanted to tighten his teeth, he grasped the clam shell with both hands, and tried to break it to both sides.

"I'm going! It's like having pliers, it's so tight! I still can't believe it can't be broken... Oh, I wipe it! My hand! Aww!" There was a scream, followed by a painful wail , the male tourist squatted on the ground holding the clam shell the size of a watermelon and screamed in pain.The tourists next to him were startled by the sudden scream, their brains reacted faster, and they all reached out to help break the dead clam shell.

But the edge of the shell is very thin, and the shell is very slippery, which is extremely difficult to handle, and several tourists don't know what to do.

"It's over! The anchor, come here, this brother's hand is pinched."
