Jing Nan slept in the morning, but he couldn't sleep after lunch.He wandered into the yard and first teased the goslings with green grass for a while, then stared at Nian Sui Sui catching bugs for a while, and finally his eyes fell on Xuan Yu and Du Heng.

Du Heng was cleaning the jars he bought for the third time, and Xuanyu helped Du Heng carry those jars.Jing Nan looked at it for a while: "What are you doing?"

Du Heng explained: "Make green plum wine."

Hearing the word green plum wine, Jing Nan immediately got excited: "Can you really make wine?" He quickly moved a small stool to Xuan Yu and Du Heng's side.

Du Heng was grabbing the plums that were going to be made into the jar, when he put a layer of green plums in the jar and covered it with a layer of rock sugar.

Jing Nan asked: "Is it possible to make wine like this? Is this like Lingmi wine, which can be drunk in a few days?"

Du Heng shook his head: "No, green plum wine needs to be kept for a long time, at least a year before it can be drunk. And the longer it is kept, the purer the taste will be, just like a layer of green plums and a layer of rock sugar, and then white wine No green plums."

Jing Nan was thoughtful: "Oh... I was a guest at Jiu Zhongxian's place before, and saw a lot of sugar and various fruits in his house. At that time, I wanted to ask him how to make wine, but Jiu Zhongxian covered it up. Tight, I never knew how he did it. I see."

Du Heng laughed and said, "After it's done, I'll put the wine jar on the terrace, so that when Fenggui comes back, you and Fenggui can drink."

Jing Nan was overjoyed: "Hey, this is good. Do more. I remember there are a few plum trees on Nanshan Mountain. I'll help you pick them later."

Du Heng's head got dizzy when he heard it: "You can finish drinking this first, what if you don't like the taste? What if I make a mistake?"

Jing Nan had a lot of confidence in Du Heng, and he said firmly, "I won't miss it, I believe in you."

Xuanyu said: "Where are those plum trees in Nanshan? I'll just go, you stay at home."

Jing Nan stared at Xuan Yu: "Isn't it? Am I already so fragile in your eyes?"

Xuan Yu lowered his eyes and said calmly: "Aren't people who can fall down while talking not delicate?" Jing Nan was speechless.

While talking, Du Heng has already packed half a jar of green plums. When making green plum wine, there is no need to fill it too full, because the wine must be poured in and fermented.Therefore, it is enough to put half a jar of green plums, and Du Heng poured the white wine he had prepared into the jar.

He weighed it with a Tianhu scale, and the plums used to make green plum wine were exactly fifty catties.Fifty catties of green plums need to be served with 35 catties of rock sugar and fifty catties of white wine.Fortunately, he had made enough spirit rice wine before, otherwise he would have to make spirit rice wine temporarily.

Fifty catties of green plums need to be filled with five small wine jars. The small wine jars may not look big, but after being filled with rock sugar green plums and wine, they are still heavy to hold.Du Heng sealed two layers of oil paper at the entrance of the wine jar, and tied the leaves of Zhulongcao on the edge of the oil paper.

There is a bowl-shaped lid on the wine jar. After closing the lid, a jar of wine can be placed on the terrace to ferment.When it is opened next time, the plum wine inside will turn into a red wine syrup, and the plums will become wrinkled.

Du Heng made green plum wine when he was in his hometown. If you want the plums not wrinkled, you can poke a few holes on the surface of the plums.In this way, the plums can be fermented more easily and the flavor can ooze out more easily.It’s just that after doing this, the pulp in the plum may come out, and the pulp in the wine will become turbid, and because it is fully soaked, the bitterness in the plum core will be stronger.

After Du Heng tried it, he still felt that it was better not to poke the holes, and the wrinkled plums did not affect eating.

After the plum wine was ready, Xuan Yu carried the plums to the upstairs terrace, while Du Heng was tossing his salted plums and candied plums.

There was no ready-made jar to hold the salted plums, so Xuanyu went to Fenggui's house to get a glazed cup.The glazed cup is two feet high and one foot in diameter, with a big belly and a thin neck, let alone two catties of plums.

There is a recipe for salted plums in my hometown, which is generally the standard of three taels of salt for a catty of plums.Then Du Heng fell into the evil conversion again.Xiaoxiao couldn't see it anymore, he tweeted a few times to solve Du Heng's problem.

Two catties of plums were paired with nine taels of salt. Du Heng carefully weighed nine taels of salt using a Tianhu scale.He felt that Tianhu said that the little foxes below were laughing at him. As a cook, he couldn't figure out the conversion of measurements, and it would make people laugh to death when he said it.

I have to say that Feng Guijia's glazed cup is really beautiful, colorful and carved with flowers and plants.Du Heng put a layer of green plums and a layer of salt in the cleaned glass cup, and then sealed it with oil paper.

Jing Nan was stunned: "Hey? Why didn't you pour the wine?"

Du Heng had to explain again: "This is a salted plum that is used for cooking, and there is no need to soak it in wine."

Xuanyu took the glass cup and sealed it with a layer of oil paper. He felt more and more that he needed to make a refrigerator at home, otherwise there would really be no place for these bottles and jars that needed to be fermented.

After the salted plums are ready, it is time to make candied plums. The method of candied plums is similar to that of salted plums.Du Heng prepared fifteen catties of plums to make candied fruit, and one catty of plums needed one catty of sugar.

Seeing Du Heng sprinkling sugar, Jing Nan shrank his neck: "Isn't this going to be too sweet?" The sugar has covered the plums, so is the stuff you can eat?

Du Heng said calmly: "It won't be too sweet. Plums are sour if they are not ripe. If there is not much sugar, the prepared candied plums will be...unpalatable." Don't be reluctant to put sugar, otherwise it will be delicious Plums are sour and astringent.

The candied plums were placed in the wine jar, because there was no need to add wine syrup this time, and the fifteen catties of plums were filled to the brim.But after three days, the juice from the plums will drown the plums themselves.

The leached juice is green plum dew. If you drink a little when you have a sore throat, it will have an immediate effect.

Du Heng felt that after the candied plums were ready, the first thing to guard against was to smile, and the child would have no restraint when he found delicious ones.Du Heng pasted a piece of red paper on the wine jar, on which Xuanyu wrote four steady characters: Candied plums.

Seeing these words, Jing Nan couldn't laugh or cry: "Many people begged for Xiaoyu's calligraphy, but he actually made labels for food at home."

Xuanyu was very calm: "Isn't it the same when you classified Lingzhi?"

Jing Nan felt that he must have been in a bad state for the past two days. This guy Xiaoyu has become so courageous that he dared to scold him!

After the plums lay obediently in the pots and jars, the yard was immediately clean, leaving a bucket of raw materials for making crispy plums.

To make crispy plums, you need to soak them in sugar solution three times. The ratio of plums to all sugar is about five to four.It sounds terrible to use four catties of sugar for five catties of plums, but if you divide the sugar into three parts and make a syrup, you will feel fine.

The crispy plums need to be washed in clean water after being taken out of the salt water tomorrow, and they need to be soaked for a period of time and then dried.In short, making crispy plums is an extremely complicated process. If it weren't for the sake of not wasting these plums, Du Heng really wanted to quit.

However, all the steps do not need to be completed in one day, and it is also a pleasure to watch the ingredients become delicious step by step.

Within a few days, Xiaoxiao gnawed on the sweet and sour crispy plums. The finished crispy plums are blue-yellow in color and crunchy after a bite.Xiaoxiao chewed the plums as long as she was free, and more than half of the 20 catties of plums were lost in a few days.

Du Heng, who makes plums, can only drink some sweet water soaked in plums. He is past the age of eating plums. Hearing the sound of eating plums with a smile, his saliva can't help but flow down.

On the day of Mangzhong, Lao Dao and Da Chaozhuan stayed at Jing Nan's house.Hearing that Jing Nan wanted to grow a tail, Lao Dao was more nervous than anyone else.He wished he could stay close to Jing Nan all day long. If Jing Nan hadn't resisted so much, Lao Dao would have laid down on the floor in the guest room of Xuanyu's house.

It was that day that Du Heng knew something.It turned out that Lao Dao was Jing Nan's subordinate, and the three people in the village all had subordinates, and their identities were not low.

When Lao Dao arrived in the village, Du Heng became more motivated to cook.Lao Dao can eat spicy food, and it just so happens that Du Heng's kimchi can be taken out these days.Lao Dao chewed hot and sour pickled radish and pickled ginger, even if he didn't add any other dishes, he could pick up two bowls of rice.

Lao Dao plans to live in the village until Jing Nan grows his seventh tail, Jing Nan can't drive him away even if he rushes.

The weather has been sunny and the temperature has been rising steadily for the past few days. Du Heng's broad beans seem to be getting old, while his little peas are fresh and tender.Du Heng ate peas in different ways. Fortunately, he was good at cooking, and everyone ate them happily.

There is a Dragon Boat Festival after Grain Grain. In order to commemorate a great man, people in my hometown will make rice dumplings, row dragon boats and hold various sacrificial activities on the day of the Dragon Boat Festival.However, there is no such person in the demon world, Du Heng can't pass the festival, but he can make zongzi!

Zongzi are very delicious. Du Heng likes egg yolk meat dumplings the most. The egg yolk meat dumplings made by himself are big, with half rice, half meat and egg yolk inside.One bite is full of oil, and one is full of porcelain in the stomach.Decided!He wants to make zongzi!

When Xuanyu helped Du Heng pick reed leaves from Nanshan, Du Heng was picking broad bean pods in the field.

Originally, he could have cut the broad beans and dragged them to the yard to dry, but the small animals in the house were too noisy, so Du Heng planned to pick the beans and take them to the upstairs terrace to dry.

Du Heng is going to make some moldy Douban in two days while the weather is good. When he was back home, his mother started making moldy Douban after the Dragon Boat Festival.The prepared moldy bean paste is mixed with red peppers that have just been released on the market, and after a period of drying, it can become a seasoning bean paste.

Doubanjiang is the soul of spicy dishes. Put a spoonful of bean paste on spicy dishes, and the red oil will come out, and the taste will be good.

Xuanyu put the basket next to the field ridge and went to Lingtian to help pick the bean pods. Du Heng smiled and said: "There are not many beans, and I can handle it by myself. Can you help pick some pea pods? Let's have pea rice at noon and fry them until they are tender." Pea pods?"

Xuanyu nodded: "Okay." Xuanyu picked things extremely fast, and could pick off all the suitable pods with a flash of aura.However, in order to wait for Du Heng, he deliberately slowed down.

Just as Xuanyu was pulling the pods, the pea sprouts shook for a while, and with a smile stuck out his head from under the bean sprouts.There are still fallen peas on his head: "Jiujiu."

Xuanyu touched and smiled, he covered Xiaoxiao with a layer of enchantment: "If you feel hot, go and stay in the house."

Xiaoxiao turned his head and looked at the field ridge next to him, where the goslings were playing in the field.He was worried about these goslings, not because he was afraid of any danger they might encounter, but because he was worried that the goslings would be ignorant and eat Du Heng's food.

When the weather is hot, Xiaoxiao and Nian Sui Sui, who are all covered in fluff, will have a hard time. No one will feel comfortable wearing down in hot weather.Every time Xiaoxiao takes the goslings to the fields and comes back, she can't wait to jump into the Lingquan to soak for an hour to be happy.

In previous years, when he was suffering from heat, he would roll into Xuanyu's arms and refused to move his nest. This year he has a lot of younger brothers, Xiaoxiao would rather be warmer and look after them.

The goslings hatched from the eggs have grown up together, and are now in the embarrassing moulting period.Du Heng's heart was broken when he saw the cute furries turned into ugly ducklings.Only then did he feel that it was better to be a spirit beast. Looking at the years and years, after picking it up for so long, it was still cute and fluffy.

Every time Du Heng and Xiaoxiao go out, the goslings follow their footsteps and walk swaggeringly in the field.Jing Nan reminded Du Heng several times, saying that these are wild ducks that fly away when their feathers grow.If Du Heng wants to keep them, it is best to cut their feathers so that they can stay.

Du Heng thought it didn't matter, just fly away.He raised them for a while, originally not to eat their meat.

The broad bean stalks with pods were picked by Du Heng and thrown on the field ridge. If they were in his hometown, these bean stalks could be dried in the sun and set on fire.But his stove has such good fuel as bloodthirsty vines, and the bean stalks are not very practical. How about giving them a little spiritual energy to turn them into soil and return to the earth.

Du Heng got two baskets of dark gray bean pods. It is hard to imagine that those blue soft bean pods will turn into this shriveled appearance after they mature.

If you peel off the pods at this time, you will find that the soft protective layer that wraps the broad beans has shrunk.In each pod are hidden two or three hard green broad beans the size of a thumb, and the broad bean skin can no longer be pinched.

Du Heng reckoned that his broad beans could fetch fifty to sixty catties, and he planned to save a few catties to make bean paste, and the rest to be eaten as orchid beans or spiced beans.

Xuan Yu carried two baskets in one hand and walked into the yard, looking at Xuan Yu's back, Du Heng smiled unconsciously.It is really safe to have Xuanyu by his side, no matter what Du Heng wants to do, Xuanyu will support him unconditionally.

Jing Nan was lying on the recliner under the eaves of the verandah, and the Great Chaos was lying at his feet.Hearing Xuan Yu and the others' footsteps, Jing Nan opened his eyes: "I just had a dream, and I dreamed that I was a child."

Xuanyu put the reed-leaf-filled pannier beside Jing Nan, and he carried the broad-bean-filled pannier and walked upstairs: "Huh? What did you dream about?"

Jing Nan complained: "I dreamed that he made a chicken, and I was full of thoughts about eating the chicken leg, but Fenggui snatched away a chicken leg, and you took away the rest. I was so angry..."

Du Heng slipped and almost fell. What kind of shit dream is this?Could it be that he hasn't cooked enough chicken for Jing Nan recently?

Seeing Du Heng approaching, the Great Chaos wagged its tail.At this time, you can see the difference between the big chaos and the small wonton.Du Heng's little wonton has now grown into a big dog. Judging from its size, it is only one size smaller than its father.

But as soon as Big Chaos lay down there, a murderous air came out.Before raising the little wonton, the feeling was not very obvious. Now, after comparing it, Du Heng feels that his little wonton is just a fool.In particular, there are two groups of white on the eyebrows of the little wonton, and it often grinned hahaha, which makes it even more silly to look at.

Today, Lao Dao took Little Wonton up the mountain. Lao Dao said that Little Wonton should be hunting alone, and he wanted to teach him.Du Heng and the others didn't say anything, the little ravioli is actually pretty wild, Du Heng saw it cross the stone river and ran to Nanshan before, so it's good to have some skills to get close to it.At least if they encounter large prey in the future, Little Wonton will be able to escape safely.

When the two dogs are together, Du Heng tends to twiddle his tongue.So he thought of a very good way: "Come on rhubarb, let me touch it."

Great Chaos has spirituality and knows that Rhubarb refers to him.Du Heng decided that when the two dogs are together in the future, he will call them Dahuang and Xiaohuang, otherwise it would be really easy to make mistakes with one chaotic and one wonton.

Rhubarb stood up and walked in front of Du Heng. It stretched its waist towards Du Heng, then put its big head into Du Heng's palm and let Du Heng rub it.Du Heng really loves this kind of spiritual dog: "Why are you so smart~~"

While Du Heng was kneading the rhubarb, Xuanyu had already sprinkled all the broad beans on the terrace to dry, and it was estimated that they would receive the dried broad beans in the evening.

Xuanyu asked slowly: "What to do with the picked reed leaves?" Du Heng immediately stopped playing with dogs: "I'll do it."

Fresh reed leaves should be washed and boiled in water. The boiled reed leaves are tough and not easy to break, and then cut off the head and tail of the reed leaves to make zongzi!

Du Heng knows how to make triangular zongzi and tall rice dumplings. The zongzi sold outside are long, so he is not very good at making them.But no matter what shape the zongzi is, as long as it tastes good, they are all equally delicious!

Du Heng prepared three kinds of stuffing, one is pure Lingmi stuffing, those who like to eat sweet can peel off the skin of the rice dumpling and dip it in sugar, or eat it empty, the taste will be very sweet and glutinous.

One is with peanuts and red beans added, and Du Heng is going to stuff two red dates into it.It would be even better if there are candied dates, and the rice dumplings are sweet when cooked.However, Du Heng didn't have candied dates at hand, so he could only make do with red dates.

The last one is salted egg yolk meat dumpling. Du Heng also added peanuts to the soaked Lingmi.He personally prefers peanuts. If he can eat one or two peanuts when eating rice dumplings, it feels like winning a lottery.

The soaked reed leaves exude a delicate fragrance, and the fresh reed leaves are quite bright in color after being boiled, which is greener than the reed leaves that are boiled after drying.

After all the preparations were done, Du Heng moved a small stool and sat on the eaves of the porch. When he turned over the reed leaf with both hands, a funnel-shaped pit appeared in his hand.The reed leaves need to overlap closely so that the filled Lingmi will not leak out.

Du Heng first made zongzi filled with pure spiritual rice. He saw the reed leaf turn twice in his hand, and a triangular zongzi appeared in his hand.The zongzi is not too big, only the size of his palm.He took reed leaves that had been torn into thin strips, wrapped the three corners of the triangular rice dumpling, and tied a knot on the top.Just do this for a zongzi!

Xuanyu and Jing Nan squatted beside Du Heng and watched while Du Heng was making rice dumplings. After Du Heng made a rice dumpling, Jing Nan smiled and said, "I can make rice dumplings."

Du Heng thought that what Jing Nan said about him being able to wrap was the kind of wrapping that he could see with his eyes and learned with his brain, but not with his hands.However, as soon as Jing Nan made a move, Du Heng knew that Du's father, who he lost, didn't even know him.

Jing Nan's hands were so dexterous, the reed leaf turned a few times in his hand, and the Lingmi automatically filled the hole formed by the reed leaf.The triangular rice dumplings made by Jing Nan are faster and more beautiful than Du Heng's!People are really more popular than people!

Jing Nan said cheerfully, "That's it? I thought it would be so difficult. Isn't it just wrapping the contents with leaves. I often do it when I'm making alchemy, so let me wrap it~"

Unconvinced, Du Heng made a tall brown rice dumpling. This kind of rice dumpling looks like a foot, with a pointed point in the front and a cylindrical section on the top: "Can you make such a rice dumpling?"

Jing Nan laughed, and the zongzi twirled a few times in his hands, and a similar zongzi appeared in Jing Nan's hands.

Du Heng found out that Jing Nan is the legendary handicraft boss. Although he usually doesn't show his mountains and dews, he knows that he has goods in his belly as soon as he makes a move!

The triangular rice dumpling in Xuanyu's hand was also well-made: "Is this okay?" Du Heng gave Xuanyu an affirmative answer: "It's so beautiful!"

Jing Nan groaned: "You don't even praise me, is Xiaoyu's work as beautiful as mine?"

Du Heng hurriedly praised Jing Nan. Jing Nan is a key protection target recently and needs careful care: "The rice dumplings made by Jing Daxian are so beautiful, I feel ashamed!"

The zongzi stuffed with pure rice was wrapped quickly, and the zongzi sank in the bucket, looking very cute one by one.When Xiaoxiao came back with the goslings, he circled the bucket several times and chirped in amazement.

After a while, the zongzi mixed with peanuts, red dates and red beans was also wrapped. Du Heng put them together with the previous pure rice zongzi. In order to distinguish the two fillings, the thread used to bind the red date zongzi was yarn.

At this time, it was time for Du Heng's favorite meat-stuffed zongzi to play. The ling rice had been soaked, and Du Heng added various seasonings to the rice, so that the ling rice was stained with sauce.There are two large bowls next to the Lingmi, one bowl is filled with marinated chunks of fat and lean meat, and the other bowl is filled with half a bowl of orange-red round egg yolks.

It is best to wrap the zongzi in long strips to make egg yolk meat dumplings, but Du Heng is not very good at it.Du Heng originally thought of making triangular zongzi or tall rice zongzi, and at the most, put some meat and rice.But now he had a thought, Jing Nan, a handicraft master, is here, so why not ask him for advice?

After Jing Nan heard Du Heng talk about his distress, he took the reed leaf and studied it for a while.After a while, Jing Nan suddenly realized: "Yes."

Jing Nan took four reed leaves and unfolded them neatly in the palm of his hand. The width of the reed leaves was three fingers wide. After the four sheets were overlapped, the width of the reed leaves was wider than a palm.Jing Nan folded a third of the reed leaf's tail, and then folded it at two-fifths of the side.

Like a magic trick, Du Heng saw a hole at the end of the reed leaf where Jing Nan had folded.Jing Nan scooped up a spoonful of soaked lingmi and threw it at the bottom, then covered the lingmi with a layer of meat and an egg yolk without any teacher.

After the meat and egg yolk were ready, he took another spoonful of Lingmi and spread it evenly on top of the meat.At this time, he slightly pressed the side and turned over the front half of the reed leaf, and a pillow-shaped long rice dumpling was formed in his hands!

After Jing Nan tied up the zongzi with reed leaves, Du Heng couldn't help clapping his hands: "That's amazing!"

Just listening to Du Heng's description, I made the long rice dumplings, and they are so beautiful.Those who didn't know thought that Jing Nan often did this.

Xuanyu also boasted: "Lao Nan is good at this. If you don't want to make alchemy in the future, you can go to Lingxi Town to make rice dumplings and sell them."

Jing Nan showed his white teeth, and squinted his eyes: "Xiaoyu, are you looking for a beating? Are you complimenting me or hurting me?"

Xuan Yu calmly imitated Jing Nan's way of making zongzi: "Of course it's a compliment, Feng Gui and I can help you when the time comes."

He said it seriously, Jing Nan was so angry that he didn't want to talk to him.

183

After the zongzi were ready, they were about to cook in the pot. Du Heng took out both pots to cook the zongzi.In the big pot, he was going to cook pure Lingmi stuffing and sweet stuffing, and in the small pot, he was going to cook egg yolk stuffing.The zongzi of these two flavors cannot be mixed together to cook, otherwise the taste will change.

When cooking zongzi, you can also add some eggs to cook together. The boiled eggs will be covered with the fragrance of reed leaves, and the eggshell will turn green, giving it a special taste.

Du Heng was going to add some eggs to both pots. He bought a lot of fresh sea duck eggs from Zhou's shop.Du Heng tried to make some salted eggs by himself, and the salted eggs should have tasted so good today.

He took out a Shau Kei salted duck egg from the jar, and he was going to cook these salted eggs with meat dumplings.Because some salt and soy sauce are added when the meat dumplings are cooked, the taste will be better when salted duck eggs are added.

On the side of the pure rice dumplings, Du Heng is going to put fresh eggs and duck eggs.

There are more than half of the rice dumplings in the two pots, and eggs and duck eggs are placed randomly on the rice dumplings.Du Heng added enough water to submerge the eggs, then he covered the pot and raised the fire in the pond.Don't be in a hurry to cook zongzi. The longer you cook the zongzi, the tastier it will be.

Du Heng looked at the time, now it is Weishizhong, and it will be ready when it is cooked until Youshi.After the water in the pot boils, turn it to a low heat and simmer slowly. The dumplings cooked in the iron pot must taste great.

Du Heng has already started to make plans: "Yunzheng and the others will come to get food in two days, we can ask them to bring some zongzi home. Also, when Fenggui sends people to come, we can also take some away. The kimchi at home is also good..."

Du Heng made a lot of food, but often he didn't eat much.Compared with eating by himself, he prefers to eat with his relatives around him.

When the sun was about to set, Lao Dao came back with Little Wonton.Old Dao had a storage bag hanging from his waist, and Little Wonton held a silver-gray ball in its mouth.

Seeing Du Heng, Little Wonton ran fast, and after a while he ran to Du Heng and put down the prey in his mouth.Du Heng originally thought that Little Wonton had chased a rabbit or something, but he didn't expect that it would start barking after it was put down.

Du Heng took a closer look and was dumbfounded, this is not a rabbit!This is clearly a kitten!The kitten is covered with silver-gray fur. If you look closely, there are spotted patterns on the fur.

After the kitten was placed on the ground, it backed away from the little wonton, and it let out a threatening sound like an air leak.After it hit Du Heng, it fell to the ground in shock, all four legs were useless.

Du Heng held the nape of the kitten in surprise. The kitten was only the size of a palm, and there was a layer of blue film inside the big eyes, which looked like it was not yet full moon.Because of fear, the kitten's eyes were full of tears.

Although the moon is not full, the kitten's claws are already sharp.Du Heng held it in his arms carefully and touched it: "Where did you find the kitten, little wonton?"

Lao Dao came over, and he saluted: "There is a litter on Nanshan, and the female has disappeared for some reason. When I went there with Little Wonton, I saw that there was only one small one left in the nest. Probably The mother species didn't want it anymore, so Little Wonton came back with it in its mouth."

Du Heng stroked the kitten and muttered, "Kinds? So, this is also a kind of spirit beast?"

The old knife nodded: "Yes, humans are very flexible, and most people can't catch it. Their nest is built on the top of Nanshan Mountain, and there are few plants there, so it is difficult for people to go up. I don't know why Little Wonton caught it. When I came back, I wanted to throw it away, but the wonton still didn’t let me touch it.”

Du Heng looked down at the kitten: "Let's raise it first, and see if it can be raised obediently. If it is wild and unruly, wait until it grows up and put it on Nanshan."

Du Heng's embrace was too warm, and the kitten was tired and scared, so Du Heng fed it fresh meat and it didn't even eat it.It shrank into a pitiful ball in the old nest that Little Wonton had used before, and fell asleep pitifully at the moment.

Jing Nan looked at the kitten: "I didn't expect this kind of spirit beast to exist on Nanshan Mountain, and it's rare now."

Du Heng asked Jing Nan with a smile: "Is this kind of spirit beast difficult to raise? Are there any precautions?"

Jing Nan thought for a while: "It is said that they are very wild, and they run away when they grow up. Don't keep this thing, it is of no value. If you like kittens and puppies, there is a family in Lingxi Town who keeps Zouwu, I'll ask you for one later. That thing is a benevolent beast, and it's also beautiful, much better than a human."

Du Heng turned his head and looked at the tear-stained kitten in the kennel: "Let's raise it first, it won't be able to live on Nanshan if it's so small, and if it wants to leave when it gets older, then let it go."

Du Heng thought for a while, the kitten might be too young and still drinking milk. Thinking of this, Du Heng took some fresh milk from the refrigerator.The kitten smelled the milk, and it crawled out of the nest and plunged into the bowl. The poor little cat didn't know how long he had been hungry, and now he was wolfing down the milk while whimpering and protecting the food.

Du Heng touched its back: "If you think our family is okay, you can stay here, and you will always have a bite to eat."

The kitten seemed to understand. It looked up at Du Heng, then continued to drink milk with its head down.It didn't stop until its belly swelled from drinking, and then it continued to crawl into the nest.

After you hour, the rice dumplings are cooked.There is a fragrance of rice dumplings in the courtyard.Xiaoxiao was already squatting heavily on the stove, he pecked at the lid of the pot to remind Du Heng that the pot is ready to boil!

After Du Heng lifted the lid of the pot, everyone around the stove stretched out their necks to look: "Is this Zongzi?"

The water added has turned greenish-brown, and even the shells of the eggs and duck eggs on it have been dyed.Du Heng brought the wooden basin, and he picked up the zongzi one by one and put them in the wooden basin.The water used to cook the zongzi was not wasted, and Du Heng put it in the wooden basin together.

Picking up a few zongzi while they were hot and putting them on the table, Du Heng introduced: "The triangular zongzi here are pure rice and sweet, and can be eaten with sugar. The long strips here are fresh meat and egg yolk. You can eat it straight away."

Jing Nan picked up a triangular rice dumpling and gently tore off the yarn on the rice dumpling. He smiled and said, "This one is stuffed with red dates and peanuts. I'll eat one first."

After tearing off the zong leaves, the boiled rotten rice sticks tightly together.Lingmi is soaked in zong leaves, and the color is a bit dark, but the rice grains are particularly moist.The Lingmi mixed with red beans, red dates and peanuts in the middle is dyed reddish brown, and a zongzi is blooming after being peeled off, which is very interesting to look at.

Take a bite, the Lingmi is soft and glutinous, the red dates are sweet, the beans and peanuts are also soft and rotten, and it tastes a little bean.At this time, dip in a little sugar, and take a bite, which is soft in the mouth and sweet in the heart.

Jing Nan thought about it: "It's delicious, as expected of the zongzi made by me." Hearing that the zongzi was made by Jing Nan, Lao Dao suddenly became interested: "Master Jing made the zongzi? I want one."

The rice dumplings peeled off by the old knife are pure rice, Jing Nan reminded: "Look at the rope, the ones tied with reed leaves are pure rice, and the ones tied with yarn are red dates."

The pure rice zongzi in Lao Dao's hand looked like a piece of rough jade in the leaves of the zongzi, and it was full of fragrance when he bit into it.Lao Dao squinted his eyes: "They are all the same, they are delicious!"

Du Heng's favorite is meat dumplings with egg yolks. The meat dumplings just out of the pan exude a strong sauce fragrance.The intersecting fat and lean meat is steamed at high temperature, the fat meat turns into fat, and the lean meat is soaked in large pieces in the middle of Lingmi.

Take a look, the rich inside makes people drool.Take a bite, the meaty rice is soft, and if you bite into the egg yolk, the salty and fresh taste is irresistible.

Du Heng peeled an egg yolk meat dumpling for Xiaoxiao, and when he looked back, there was a peeled meat dumpling in his bowl.Needless to say, it must have been stripped out by Xuanyu's help.

Xuanyu pulled the zong leaves seriously, the cooked zongzi were very obedient, and they fell from the zong leaves into the bowl with a light shake.It's a pity that the reed leaves can't be eaten, and a pile of zong leaves piled up in the trash can after a while.

Although reed leaves cannot be eaten, they have faithfully completed their mission.The eggs and duck eggs stewed with the zongzi have fully absorbed the fragrance of the reed leaves, peeled off the discolored shell and gnawed on one. The slightly green egg white has a delicate taste, which is indeed different from boiled white water.

The best thing is the salted duck eggs. This is the first time Du Heng has eaten salted eggs salted by himself.At this time, the egg white is not very salty, but the egg yolk is already oily!Whether it is eaten empty or smashed and sprinkled on rice dumplings, it is delicious.

The staple food tonight is zongzi, originally zongzi would be more suitable for breakfast.Isn't this just made, what everyone eats is fresh.

The old knife was amazed: "There is still such a way of eating, Mr. Du, people in your hometown are so smart, they can think of this." Anyway, few people in the demon world would pick reed leaves that are not fresh and tender to eat. , Human cultivators are really smart.

Du Heng smiled and said: "People's attainments in eating are endless. If you can eat, you have to find the best way to eat it, and if you can't eat it, you have to create conditions to eat it. Look at the spiritual plants outside, there is no waste, right? Those who really can’t drink it are drugged, and the gifts of nature are endless, and it’s up to everyone to use it or not.”

Lao Dao was taught: "Sir, what you said makes sense."

Jing Nan couldn't hold on after eating five zongzi, Lao Dao was not as good as Jing Nan, Lao Dao couldn't survive after eating four.Xiaoxiao has the strongest fighting power, he killed six zongzi by himself, not including those delicious eggs.

The rice that Du Heng uses to make zongzi is not glutinous rice, if it is glutinous rice, he has to worry that everyone will feel uncomfortable in the stomach after eating it.He ate three zongzi by himself, and his stomach was quite solid, but he ate two more eggs and didn't drink any water, which made Du Heng feel a little thirsty in the middle of the night.

Originally, Xuanyu would have water to drink when he greeted Xuanyu, but when he woke up today, Xuanyu was not on the bed.Did you go downstairs to find Jing Nan?

Du Heng put on his clothes and went downstairs, only to see that the door of Jing Nan's room was closed, but the light in the kitchen was on.

Du Heng stretched his head to look, and saw Xuan Yu was feeding the kitten.The tall man was very gentle when he treated small animals, and Du Heng's heart softened.

Under the Ye Mingzhu, Xuan Yu whispered to Little Wonton: "Wait, if it is going to defecate, you can take it outside to deal with it, don't let it get dirty at home." Little Wonton wagging its tail humbly , as if listening to Xuan Yu's words.

Xuan Yu was much more careful than Du Heng. Du Heng only thought that the kitten could stay up all night when it was full, but Xuan Yu thought that drinking milk would not make him hungry, so he got up in the middle of the night to feed the cat!

Reminiscent of what Du Heng said to Xuan Yu before, he said that if the conditions are right in the future, he would like to raise a cat.Xuanyu must have told Little Wonton these words, and Little Wonton brought back a kitten!

Du Heng leaned against the door frame and looked at him warmly
