Chapter 9 Barbecue is not a rarity

Ever since he found out that the little rooster really didn't have any adverse reactions after eating mushrooms, Comrade Zhu Dazhuang began to believe even more in Comrade Yang Xiaoyang's ability to go up the mountain to find wild goods.

You must know that there are few dishes in winter, and some of the winter vegetables you harvest have to be sold for money. In addition to Zhu Hai’s previous dietary policy of eating as long as you are full or not hungry, once you encounter various tastes that you have never tried before. , the food-eating gene hidden in the body for 18 years is hard not to be unearthed.Therefore, it is a great thing to have more things that can be imported on the Internet.

In view of the fact that there is still a month or so before the autumn harvest, and in view of the fact that Comrade Wang Erbao has been fascinated by Yang Xiaoyang's craftsmanship since he had two meals, there is another main force in the "treasure digging" team up the mountain.

Missing the meal of hot and sour potato chips last night, after entering the mountain, Wang Erbao went straight to the small piece of red pointy land, and picked it up dully.

Zhu Hai was afraid that Yang Xiaoyang's waist would get worse if he squatted back and forth, so he left the mushroom picking to him.However, in order to prevent picking the wrong mushrooms, Yang Xiaoyang has been staying not far from Zhu Hai. Whenever he finds mushrooms, Zhu Hai will first ask if they are edible.

For a moment, Yang Xiaoyang had the feeling that he was the leader of the class, and his waist was straightened unconsciously.Of course, more than half of the reason was that he was so tired yesterday that he was in pain when he bent over.

There is a unique scent of grass in the mountain forest in autumn, which is very different from the sultry and humid feeling in summer.In the past, Yang Xiaoyang especially liked to go to the mountains and forests to breathe fresh air in spring and autumn. According to him, this is called absorbing the aura of heaven and earth, absorbing the essence of plants and trees, which can eliminate all bad toxins in the body.To put it bluntly, I was so bored in the crowd of all kinds of people that I panicked, so I just found a place where no one was around to relieve my spirit.

It doesn't matter to Yang Xiaoyang whether he can go back to such a strange era.He is an orphan himself, and he has no real estate, no savings, and no bright future to speak of. If he is gone, he will be gone.And this baby has always been easygoing since he was a child, or he had to go with the situation.No one will give him the right to be capricious and picky. Acceptance and hard work are his way of doing things.On the contrary, when he came here, he felt an inexplicable sense of belonging from the beginning.Life in the country might be hard and tiring, but he knew it was much easier and more enjoyable than living in the city by cheating for a living.

I saw a small tree about one meter high in front of my eyes, and the branches bore a lot of green fruits with puffy surfaces.Picking one out of curiosity and holding it in his hand, Yang Xiaoyang smiled, but his thoughts drifted further away.

What will happen in the future?After two days, I will claim the land by myself. If I plant the seeds of vegetables and fruits I brought, at least I can buy a piece of land in the village to build a yard, right?I don't know if this place will accept GAY, if not, I can only die alone.He knew that he couldn't combine with a woman, let alone poison other people's daughters in order to relieve loneliness.If Zhu Hai gets married in the future, he will definitely move out to live alone.Just don't know how long that will be.It is said that people in ancient times could marry a daughter-in-law when they were sixteen or seventeen. I don’t know how old people usually get married here.Zhu Hai is already eighteen this year... But as long as it's not that woman Cai Sihua, it's fine.Although somewhat unwilling, he hopes that Zhu Hai can live a happy life.

Suddenly there was a sour and bitter taste in his mouth, Yang Xiaoyang realized that he stuffed that unknown fruit into his mouth and took a bite. "Bah bah bah bah bah!" I don't know if this thing is poisonous or not, it's really careless!

Hearing Yang Xiaoyang's bah sound, Zhu Hai hurriedly joined him. "What's wrong?"

Yang Xiaoyang lifted up the half-bitten fruit in his hand depressed: "This is sour and bitter!"

Zhu Hai smiled: "You want to eat oranges and I will buy them for you when you come to the county in a few days. This short orange is sour and has little meat. Wouldn't it be sour and bitter if you eat it with the skin?" He took off the water bag and handed it to Yang Xiaoyang, "Hurry up and rinse your mouth with water."

Hearing that Zhu Hai said it was called a dwarf orange, Yang Xiaoyang immediately turned his attention to the half of the fruit in his hand.Although the outer skin looks too rough and thick, the inner structure is really the same as that of an orange.just sour?Thinking of this, he quickly licked the flesh in the middle with his tongue.Sure enough, it was so sour that it was not inferior to the acidity of lemon.Glancing at several small trees of this kind nearby, his eyes lit up immediately: "That means this thing can be eaten?" He can't let this thing go to waste.

Zhu Hai saw that Yang Xiaoyang licked the dwarf orange again but did not take the water bag, so he directly handed the water to Yang Xiaoyang's mouth: "Of course I can eat it. I grew up eating a lot of food, and sometimes I watched others eat it." I am so hungry for the fruit. This dwarf orange is no better than a fruit that only ripens in autumn. It bears fruit from spring to autumn, so if it tastes bad in my mouth, I will pick one and put it in my pocket. It’s okay to break off a small piece and bite One bite. It’s just very unpalatable.”

Hearing Zhu Hai talk about the hard times in the past so lightly, Yang Xiaoyang felt a little sad.Thinking of my childhood, no matter how bad the orphanage was, I often had some fruit to eat, at least I never went hungry since I was a child.But maybe I can't be sure about the two years at my cousin's house, anyway, I don't remember it. "Since I can eat it, I want to pick some back. I used to drink sour oranges in water. This one has a stronger bitter taste. I think it will taste like tea when brewed."

Zhu Hai smiled and watched Yang Xiaoyang take a sip of water, then put the water bag back on his waist: "Then pick it up. I'll continue to look for mushrooms."

Yang Xiaoyang raised his face and smiled: "Yes! But it will be ready after a while. I have to go back early today to boil the pear jam. Oh, by the way, is the sugar expensive here? Is there any rock sugar?"

Zhu Hai replied: "Coarse white sugar is not expensive, but rock sugar is not cheap. Do you need two kinds of sugar to make soup? Then I will borrow some when I go back, and I will buy more when I go to the market next time."

There was a sound behind them, Zhu Hai and Yang Xiaoyang turned their faces and saw Wang Erbao who had already carried more than half a basket of wild peppers. "Do you want to use sugar? I still have a jar at home. I usually don't eat much, so I borrow something. When the pear jam is ready, I'll share it."

Yang Xiaoyang smiled: "Actually, you don't have to use rock sugar, so thank you, Brother Wang!"

Today's half-day score is better than yesterday's one-day score.Just returning home and looking at the peppers and mushrooms in the yard made Yang Xiaoyang scratch his head.Mushrooms are better, and they must be dried.But if those peppers are dried into dried peppers, it would be a waste.It's just that the meat of this wild salamander is very thin, and it won't taste good when pickled as a pickle.After much deliberation, I finally decided to make some pickled peppers and chopped peppers, so that they can be stored for a while longer.And seeing how much Wang Erbao and Zhu Hai liked the red spikes, they had to use a lot of them in the past few days, and the remaining dried peppers might not be enough.

After thinking about the use of chili peppers, Yang Xiaoyang heated up the double-cooked pork that was fried in the morning and the leftover pork rib soup from yesterday, and fried a spicy cabbage stick. The three of them ate a full lunch.Then Yang Xiaoyang began to sit in the yard peeling pears and digging out pear cores.He didn't have to clean up the dishes, because Zhu Hai said that he was responsible for cleaning up the dishes when he didn't cook. Yang Xiaoyang still agrees with this system of fair division of labor.

After Wang Erbao gave Yang Xiaoyang his own sugar jar, he took Zhu Hai and said that he was going down to the field to have a look, which just made it convenient for Yang Xiaoyang to operate the next work independently.He was really not used to being stared at when he was working, even if it was out of curiosity, he felt uncomfortable.

The practice of making pear sauce is very simple.It's just that it takes too much effort to clean up the pears. If it's the big white pears, it's better. These wild pears are really troublesome.It is too small, so it takes a lot of time to peel the skin, but he is relieved that the core inside is very small, otherwise he will really go crazy.

Cut the packed pears into small pieces, sprinkle sugar and a little salt on the pulp, then boil water in a pot, scoop two big spoonfuls of sugar into it, remembering the dwarf orange picked today, he I quickly peeled one off and smashed it in a bowl with a rolling pin and put it on the pear meat.He remembered that lemons have the effect of preserving freshness and antisepsis, and he hoped that this dwarf orange could also have the same effect.Of course it was just his wish.At least put in such a little bit, even if it doesn't work, it won't taste bad.

After the sugar melted, Yang Xiaoyang poured a large pot of pears into the boiling pot, and the next thing was to boil, but he had to pay attention to the heat at all times. You have to pay attention to the sweetness of the jam, if there is not enough sugar, it will be too wasteful if you add too much at one time.

When Zhu Hai came back, he was holding two pullets in his hands, while Wang Erbao was carrying a dead pheasant in one hand and two pieces of meat in the other.

At this time, Yang Xiaoyang had just chopped ginger, garlic, and Chinese prickly ash and soaked them in bowls to make seasoning sauce when he heard chicken crowing outside.

"Xiaoyang, I bought two hens and they are yours." Zhu Hai said as he put the two hens into the coop, and then took the pheasant from Wang Erbao's hand: "Xiaoyang You boil a pot of water, and I cleaned up the pheasant. How about trying to stew mushrooms with it at night?"

As soon as Yang Xiaoyang heard that he wanted wild pheasant stewed with mushrooms, Yang Xiaoyang immediately had the desire to drink halazi. "okay!"

Wang Erbao directly sent the two pieces of mutton to Yang Xiaoyang, and said: "Look at how this mutton is cooked, I will spend dinner with you again tonight! Xiaoyang, you are so tired!"

Yang Xiaoyang smiled: "Brother Wang, aren't you and Brother Zhu worshiping brothers, and it's called rubbish when you come to eat? Anyway, I also want to cook, but it's just an extra set of bowls and chopsticks. Why are you so polite?" After passing those two pieces of meat, Yang Xiaoyang smacked his lips, "It would be great if it could be used for barbecue." It doesn't matter if there is no charcoal fire, the heat in the stove pit is enough to cook the meat, but it's a pity that there is no skewer, so you can't chop wood, right?This stove pit is quite big, if you accidentally drop the meat into it and ruin it?Otherwise, it's good to fry.

"Barbecue? That's a good idea! How you cut and prepare the meat is up to you. I'll go back and get the oven." After speaking, Wang Erbao ran out of the courtyard door.

Looking at the mutton in his hand, Yang Xiaoyang smiled.Feelings even have an oven at home, and barbecue here is not a rarity at all!
