The years when I opened a farmhouse in my hometown

"I want to go too! Is there anyone who organizes a group? Now that the farmhouse is open, I've always wanted to go but I can't find anyone to go with me."

"Upstairs! Come on, let's go together, we can go to Wuling City to gather."

"Add me! Seeing that everyone went to pick mushrooms, how can such a good thing happen to me. And I saw that the people in the anchor's village also took care of them along the way, so there shouldn't be any danger."

"That's right, and every time you find a mushroom, you will be identified. In this way, there will be no incidents of poisonous mushrooms. I think this is very good."

"It's really rare to have so many wild mushrooms on the outskirts of the mountain, which shows that the ecology of the anchor and their back mountain is very good, and the environmental protection is very good."

"Didn't the anchor send a notice, saying that Yunshui Village has been raining for the past few days, and there is no means of transportation for travel. Even if you go now, you can only settle in the town. It is estimated that tourists who want to go back will not be able to go back for the time being. "

"To pick mushrooms on the mountain, you need this kind of weather, especially the lingering light rain. The wetter the mountain, the more mushrooms. You want to wait for the weather to clear, and then there will be no more."

"If I had known earlier, I would have gone there on the opening day, but now I can only watch helplessly."

"I went to check it out. It's still raining today at the anchor's place. It will be cloudy tomorrow, and it will turn sunny the day after tomorrow. I think I can book a ticket."

"I'm sore, I fucking want to go too!"

…………

For this, Shen Xiaoyun was helpless, the traffic here was not good, once it rained, it would be a disaster.

After watching these male tourists digging chicken fir mushrooms for a while, Shen Xiaoyun changed a few places and broadcast the grand event of picking mushrooms to netizens as soon as possible.

Suddenly, not far from Shen Xiaoyun, two female tourists seemed to have encountered something terrible. They hugged each other and let out piercing screams.

"Ahhhh!"

"Ah, help!"

The voice was full of fear and uneasiness, and the others looked over subconsciously, only to see a group of gray things jumping out of the bushes on one side at an extremely fast speed, and they only saw afterimages.The villagers who were protecting them came to have a look, and found that the gray ball had rushed to the two female tourists hugged together, motionless, frightened to death...

"It doesn't matter, it's a rabbit." After hearing the news, the villagers who arrived saw the gray rabbit that could no longer move, and said to the two female tourists who were still shivering.

"Ah?" The frightened female tourist was stupefied, and she burst into tears, because she was too scared, and her face was ugly.Listening to it now, the fluffy gray thing I saw before turned out to be a rabbit.

"already dead."

The female tourist pursed her lips, as if she didn't quite understand. She looked at the concerned villagers, and then at the surprised faces of the tourists around her. When she looked down, she saw a very fat gray rabbit.

The rabbit's eyes were still wide open, its four legs were all straight, and it was in an extremely abnormal state of stiffness.

"???" The female companion who was hugging her couldn't figure out what was going on. Looking at the rabbit, she didn't quite understand why the rabbit died alive just a moment ago.

Shen Xiaoyun also came over with a selfie stick, and saw the rabbit at the feet of the two female tourists.

He went over to check and found that the rabbit's body temperature was still warm. Looking at the blood-red eyes, no matter how you look at it, you can't die with peace.Shen Xiaoyun reckoned that this rabbit might have met too many tourists, and was frightened to death.

"Uncle Li, help me to take a look, did this rabbit die of fright?" Shen Xiaoyun asked the villagers for their opinions. Regarding the death of the rabbit, Shen Xiaoyun was only guessing, and it would be best to find a villager who was familiar with hunting.

"I can see clearly, I was scared to death." Uncle Li squatted down, grabbed the rabbit by its ears and picked it up, then showed Shen Xiaoyun the rabbit's snout, nose and ears, the rabbit's facial features were bloodshot.

"I guess I've lost my guts." Uncle Li said flatly.

Shen Xiaoyun nodded, took the rabbit from Uncle Li, and handed it to the two tourists who were still in a dazed state.

"Here, for us?" The two female tourists looked at the dead rabbit, feeling a little helpless for a moment. They didn't quite understand what use this rabbit was for them, and it was still dead.

"Yes, this is also what you have gained from entering the mountain. Although it is frightening to death, it is still no problem to eat. Take it back, and you can give the auntie in the cafeteria a little manual fee, and I can help you cook two good dishes." And this rabbit is really It was quite fat. He held it in his hand and estimated it in his heart. It weighed about seven or eight catties.

The two female tourists suddenly realized that they no longer disliked the gray-haired rabbit, and happily took it, but it turned out that the rabbit was really too heavy, so they had to put it in the basket.

"Thank you, the host."

Seeing the tourists, Shen Xiaoyun was both curious and unbelievable. It seemed that some people were eager to try it, so she was speechless for a while.

"The area I brought you in belongs to the periphery, and generally there will be no ferocious animals. If something really happens, calm down first and don't get too excited. This time it scared the timid rabbit. If you encounter a wild boar, it's not It's fun, and there are uncles and uncles nearby who will protect your safety, so if there is any danger or difficulty, you can find them at the first time." Shen Xiaoyun was really worried that there would be people like Rebellious Boy among the tourists, and her brain twitched. Crazy ghost screams everywhere.

At that time, the rabbit was not scared, but it scared the other tourists who were picking mushrooms at ease.

Moreover, the terrified screams in this silent mountain forest can easily cause small animals in the mountain to run wild, and some timid tourists will feel uneasy.

It was indeed a tourist who had such thoughts when Shen Xiaoyun said, silently let go of this uneasy thought, touched his nose, and honestly went to pick mushrooms again.

"Anchor, is this rabbit really scared to death?" The tourist with the basket was very curious.

It was the first time he heard that the rabbit was scared to death because of the two female tourists screaming.

But the rabbit died right in front of their eyes, which surprised many tourists.

Shen Xiaoyun himself has never encountered it before, but people in their village often go hunting in the deep mountains, and sometimes they will meet some timid rabbits. Can be scared to death.

"Well, rabbits are very timid. When they encounter danger or feel panic, they will have a heart attack, just like what happened just now." Seeing everyone's curiosity, Shen Xiaoyun explained.

"I met this one. I raised a rabbit. It was fine that day. Someone in my community bought a sky cannon and fired a few. My rabbit shivered there and then died. I also went to the pet I saw it at the clinic, and the pet doctor said that I was scared to death. I was in a very confused mood at the time, and it was the same as you are now." The person who said this was a petite girl, and she had a look of helplessness after she finished speaking.

She didn't expect the rabbit to be so timid.

"... My house is the same, but my house was scared to death by the sound of firecrackers. Hey, it died before the firecrackers were set off. I also bought a pet rabbit. I was heartbroken and speechless at the time."

"My family also raised a rabbit, and at the same time, I also raised a erha. My erha likes the rabbit very much. One day the erha bit the rabbit's head in his mouth, and then the rabbit died... At that time, I thought it was Erha had poison in his mouth, he poisoned the rabbit to death, now that I think about it, he must have been frightened to death."

The other tourists listened with gusto. They really didn't know about this, and it was the first time they discovered an incredible secret.

There were also tourists who heard that the rabbit was scared to death, and the cheapest asked: "Did you eat two big bowls with tears in your eyes! Now the rabbits are quite fat, so it's delicious to have a spicy cold rabbit."

"...No, I don't have the mood to eat my own pets."

"My family planned to throw it away because no one would handle it. An aunt took it away. I guess she took it back to cook." In fact, the rabbit she bought was only a few days old at that time, and the rabbit was indeed fatter. Haven't given weight yet.

It's just that I never expected it, and I was scared to death after buying it for a few days.

"Oh, don't discuss this, everyone. Rabbit is a very delicious dish. You can think of it as the rabbit meat hot pot, stir-fried rabbit meat, or spicy rabbit diced, or cold rabbit meat is delicious. Those two tourists I am very lucky, I bumped into such a big wild rabbit, this trip is really worth it." Seeing several female tourists kept talking about how their rabbits were scared to death, a male tourist deliberately changed the topic .

Although the topic shifted a bit immorally, food can be discussed, but when everyone thought of the fat rabbit meat, they felt a little moved.

"I want to eat spicy rabbit head." A female tourist looked forward to it.

"I want to eat dry pot rabbit meat. It's super delicious. It's not only fragrant, but the rabbit meat is tender and fragrant. Put a little pepper in it, and it tastes amazing."

"I think cold-eating rabbit is the best. I can only buy it online every time, but each bag only has a small amount. It's really not fun! I really want to visit sisters with those two female tourists. Is there still time?"

"...I don't think it's possible! I don't know you well, so everyone should go pick mushrooms. The more I talk about it, the more greedy I become. I wish I could catch a rabbit right now."

In fact, Shen Xiaoyun was also drooling because he hadn't eaten rabbits for a long time.

Rabbits have a fishy smell if they are not well prepared, so it is best to have a stronger taste when making them. Add more chili, pepper, and even some spices such as licorice in it to make it more delicious.The few times Shen Xiaoyun ate rabbit meat was during the busy farming season, when rice was being harvested at home, and those rabbits would also gnaw tender seedlings, and the villagers would often lay some traps and catch some rabbits from time to time.At that time, rabbits were very common. After boiling the water, stir-fry them with hot peppers. It tastes hot. At the same time, the rabbit meat is very strong. When children eat it, they pull it from side to side and chew their cheeks constantly. Just eat the smell of meat.

Although the method is ordinary, the rabbit meat is really delicious.

After eating once, I will miss it for a long time.

Shen Xiaoyun felt that she couldn't join the chatting ranks of these tourists, otherwise she would also drool unknowingly.

The action of picking mushrooms lasted until ten o'clock in the morning. Under Shen Xiaoyun's urging again, the tourists reluctantly walked back.

After counting the number of people, everyone followed in an orderly manner and formed a long line. As for the other tourists, they were led by the villagers. After Shen Xiaoyun informed them, everyone went down the mountain one after another.

Going down the mountain and going up the mountain are two completely different moods. Before going up the mountain, everyone is full of confidence. They are full of expectations and fantasies about picking mushrooms, and feel that they will definitely return home with a full reward.

After going down the mountain, although everyone’s harvest was not as rich as I expected, everyone’s face was filled with satisfied smiles. Everyone was carrying baskets, sacks, and some carrying small bamboo baskets. It is also quite satisfactory.

People with sharp eyes and those who can pick mushrooms can pick up a basket full during these three hours, and those who are not so good at picking can pick up one or two bowls, which is enough to cook a dish. I think this morning is worth it.

It can not only satisfy their yearning for the mountains, but also satisfy their enthusiasm for picking mushrooms, and at the same time return with a mountain delicacy.

This is the same as what they imagined, going to the mountain to pick mushrooms, the kind of satisfaction and full sense of accomplishment, so they are not excited.

Even if the look back here is very different from the look on the mountain, for example, the hair is wet, the clothes are also wet, the bamboo hat is not worn, the coir raincoat is useless, and the plastic film tied on the trouser legs has been scratched. , there is muddy water everywhere, dirty, as for the shoes on the feet, they are completely unsightly.

It took nearly three hours from entering the mountain at [-] o'clock to going down the mountain at [-] o'clock. Although they were tired and hungry at the moment, they were exhausted and their legs hurt, but they didn't feel hard work, they just felt very happy , very satisfied.

Especially when they saw the basket in their hands, the half-basket of wild mushrooms were so fresh and cute, just looking at them could turn them into idiots.

"You picked up so much, you shouldn't be able to finish these today, right?"

"I'm going to buy some fresh-keeping charms from the anchor. Anyway, it can be stored for five days. I'll eat it slowly."

"I think the hosts often pick mushrooms here, and there are ways to preserve them, such as drying them into dried mushrooms, or drying them, drying them..."

"Ask the anchor and you'll know."

These mushrooms are all wild mushrooms, which are different from the ones bought in the market. They are not only delicious, but also nutritious. They have picked them up one by one with great pains, and they must eat them all.

As for the method of storing fresh mushrooms, Shen Xiaoyun gave them the more traditional way in the village.

"The weather like this is really not good for storage. We will dry it slowly on a low fire, or put it on the kang, and someone must watch it all the time. Be careful, otherwise it will burn. Dried mushrooms can be stored For a long time, if you want to eat, just take out a little, it is very fragrant."

"If it's sunny, dry it in the sun, or put it in a cool place to dry."

Some tourists picked up a lot of mushrooms. After hearing Shen Xiaoyun's opinion, they wanted to ask the aunt in the cafeteria to help dry them.

"I will pay for the handwork." Tourists also know that baking mushrooms is a very time-consuming thing, and they will not let the aunt's hard work be in vain.

"Okay, but you have a lot of mushrooms. You can go to the village and find someone to bake them for you. It will be faster." After all, the canteen is mainly for cooking, and there are only a few bites in the pot.

"Okay, so I can rest assured."

"I still think fresh mushrooms are delicious. I'll buy a fresh-keeping charm from you, anchor."

Some of the tourists who fought against the savages came back with mud on their trouser legs. As they walked on the road, they suddenly realized that they seemed to be really messy.

Coupled with wet hair, dirty hands, and muddy tree leaves, no matter how you look at it, it looks desolate.

When he was about to enter the village, Shen Xiaoyun found almost everyone and asked for permission from the head of the family. The tourists borrowed well water to wash their muddy pants and shoes.

After all the tourists returned to the farmhouse, Shen Xiaoyun immediately asked the aunts in the cafeteria to boil some ginger water for each tourist to drink.

They stayed on the mountain for almost a morning, sweating and drenched in light rain, their bodies were all wet, and they might catch a cold.

After drinking the ginger water and sweating a bit, Shen Xiaoyun first asked the tourists to change into clean clothes, put the mushrooms aside first, and those who wanted to take a bath went to take a bath first.

"Some mugwort leaf water will be boiled in the kitchen in a while. If you want to use this to take a bath, you can bring a bucket over here, and Auntie will make it for you." Shen Xiaoyun also ordered the mugwort leaves to be boiled. This mugwort leaf water is also good for preventing colds. certain effect.

On weekdays, tourists will have thermos bottles for drinking and drinking water. Most of these are used for cooking. When the water is boiled, they will be filled.

Tourists who need a hot water bottle come to the kitchen to pick it up by themselves every day. When the water is used up, just return it.

Although there is an electric kettle in each guest room, the kettle is still not fast enough to boil water for bathing, so Shen Xiaoyun also equipped the farmhouse with some kettles.

Many of the tourists know the benefits of mugwort leaves. When they heard that the aunts cooked it for them to take a bath, they were moved and happy. They felt that this farmhouse was very humane.

"Thank you, the anchor, then I will be impolite in a while."

"Thank you, the anchor, I'll trouble you and Auntie."

Shen Xiaoyun shook her head, seeing that everyone was having a good time, they put on clean clothes one after another, wiped their hair, and were in a good mood, thinking that picking mushrooms this time was pretty good.

The happiness of the tourists is the greatest affirmation of their farmhouse.

"You're welcome. After you take a shower, sort the mushrooms you picked up. You have to pick out the dead branches, rotten leaves, and bugs on these mushrooms. After washing, those that need to be dried must be sent quickly. When you go to the villagers’ homes, they just need to pay a little manual fee, and they will bake it for you.”

"If you don't want to dry and want to eat fresh, you can buy fresh-keeping charms from me. Fresh mushrooms should also be cleaned of dead branches, rotten leaves, and insects. However, it is best not to wash them, as they will rot quickly after washing. "This is the same as some vegetables. It's okay to get wet with rain, but if you wash it with water, the leaves of the vegetables will become soft and rotten.

The tourists nodded one after another, expressing that they had listened, but...

"Anchor, do these mushrooms have bugs?"

"Really, why do mushrooms have bugs? Every time I buy them in the supermarket, I never see bugs."

Shen Xiaoyun dumped the mushrooms from a tourist's basket on the table, picked out the pine mushrooms with fat canopies, and turned the mushrooms inside out, revealing the rib-like inside.

"Hey, this kind of pine tree mushroom, because it grows under the damp and dark pine needles, the soil underneath is the dead leaves that have rotted for many years, and it is easy to hide small bugs. Especially this kind of pine tree mushroom, which grows thick and juicy , Not only do we like to eat it, many small bugs also like this kind of tender, juicy and sweet food. Pine tree mushrooms generally don’t attract bugs, but they will grow some vegetable toothworms, which are actually okay to eat , It’s just that there is a psychological obstacle, it’s better to pick it out.” Shen Xiaoyun picked out a soft, white, fat bug from the thick and short mushroom stem in front of the tourists.

The tourists watching were dumbfounded.

"This, this bug is quite fat." In fact, he really wanted to say, I'll wipe it!What the hell is this? This mushroom looks so beautiful. The surface of the mushroom still looks very intact, and there are no bugs at all.

"Are there many such bugs?" It really discourages the enthusiasm for eating.

"It's not a lot. Generally, there will be one or two of these pine mushrooms in three or four flowers, such as chicken fir, oyster mushroom, russula, porcini mushroom, straw mushroom, and tea tree mushroom. Generally, there will be no insects. But pine mushrooms are It is because of the deliciousness. The mushroom meat is thick and juicy, so there are insects to bite. This kind of mushroom soup is especially delicious. Don’t worry about these insects. Just because there are insects, it means that this mushroom is very safe and can be eaten with confidence. This kind of pine tree mushroom has relatively high requirements for the growth environment, and it is only normal if there are bugs." It may be that I have seen it too often, but Shen Xiaoyun doesn't think there is anything wrong with eating this kind of pine tree mushroom often.

Just like there are worms on the leaves of vegetables, just remove them and you're done.

"Really?" Some tourists felt that the anchor seemed to be fooling them.

"I've eaten this pine tree mushroom. It's super delicious in soup, but every time I handle it, I can't stand it. This kind of mushroom is easy to grow such fleshy little bugs, and I feel very uncomfortable every time I see it."

"I ate it when I was a child. My grandma and the others would go to the back mountain to pick this pine tree mushroom. There are indeed insects, so you have to pick them out carefully. But this is normal. This kind of mushroom is delicious, so it will attract this insect. That's what my grandma said."

"Wow! You've all eaten wild mushrooms like this before."

"Because this kind of pine tree mushroom is the easiest to find, and it is also the easiest to identify. It is an edible mushroom. Even if you encounter other mushrooms, you dare not pick them lightly, for fear of being poisonous."

"In that case, let's choose carefully in a while."

In the end, it was my own stars who worked so hard to pick it up. Even if there are bugs, I have to pick them up with tears.

The mushroom soup that I want to drink, no matter what, I have to drink it in my mouth, otherwise, how can I be reconciled? !

"I don't know what dishes are served at noon. If the dishes are average, I will ask my aunt to order less or no orders. I will order some rice and fry the mushrooms I picked up." A tourist muttered.

Moreover, he didn't pick up much. It is estimated that he can make soup twice, and if he stir-fries, it is only a plate.

"I went to see it. At noon, there are vegetarian fried pumpkin vines, hot and sour bamboo shoots, and a white radish. But the hot and sour bamboo shoots are fried with lard residue. It's super fragrant. When I watched it, my mouth was watering. .”

"Hey, it seems to be pretty good. Lard residue is my favorite. This stir-fried dish is the most delicious."

"Well, I also like hot and sour bamboo shoot slices. What about mushrooms? I also want to eat fried mushrooms. Mine is chicken fir mushrooms, so I don't want the dish for lunch today?" The tourist and his friends asked. Everyone dug up nearly half a basket of Coprinus pilosula, which can be said to be a very rich harvest.

It is simply the envy of many tourists.

They were really lucky. After discovering a large piece of Coprinus pilosula, they found a lot of tea tree mushrooms. It was like the arrival of the children of the jungle. They spent the whole journey digging mushrooms.

"Have a spicy hot pot, or a dry pot of tea tree mushrooms, or dry pot of chicken fir. Buy some pork from the aunt in the cafeteria and cook it together! This is definitely a hundred times more delicious than the fried bamboo shoots with lard residue! And it's so fresh This is the first time I have eaten wild mushrooms, so I must not let them go."

A tourist ran over cheerfully, with a happy expression on his face, sharing a good news with everyone.

"Haha, let me tell you a good news. I just asked the auntie who cooks in the cafeteria. They said that they can help fry mushrooms or make soup. The manual fee is five yuan. If you make the spicy hot pot, it will be eight yuan. Money and manual fees."

Other tourists who were picking branches, leaves, and insects for mushrooms thought it was a good deal. For just a few dollars, they could get a plate of top-notch delicacy, which made them very excited.

"Not bad! I feel the true love again. The auntie in the cafeteria is so kind, then I will make a spicy mushroom in a pot later. Hey, I will eat this at noon."

"I can accept this price, and I will make mushroom soup later."

The tourist who shared the good news has another surprise: "I just saw a lot of green plums in the kitchen. Guess what the aunts are doing. They beat the plums with the back of a knife or a mallet, and the juice splashes. Ah, it’s still stir-frying in the pot, just like stir-frying, with a lot of salt and chili powder sprinkled on it, what kind of dish is this? Why have I never seen it before.”

"I know this, I've eaten, super delicious salt and pepper plums. What I want is this kind of plums with green skins. The meat is still hard and sour. After soaking in sugar water and sprinkle with salt and pepper, the taste is tsk tsk, it is simply delicious in the world ah."

"... Fried plums? Put salt and chili powder in the plums. What a fresh way to eat them. Just listening to them makes my teeth sore."

Many tourists were stunned, thinking that there was dark cooking in the canteen of the farmhouse.

"I have eaten this. When I was traveling, I ate it in Nanzhao Kingdom. It was delicious. I just used salt and chili powder together, and some used salt and pepper, and the taste was a little lighter. I like salt and pepper plums. I can accept it, but I can't accept salt and pepper lime, apricot and lemon, but people seem to be used to eating them, and they seem to be delicious."
