  Chapter 148 148. Persistent lettuce

  But now it's Qingming, the mint only grows a tender clump, and this newcomer didn't prepare chicken blood...

  The seventh cousin sighed sadly, and decided to put this dish in summer.

  Here, Zhang Yanping has already picked up a large handful of those blooming rapeseed flowers, gathered them in his arms, and then threw them into the basket.

   Seventh Cousin glanced down and jumped instantly:

   "Why do you still choose the ones that are in full bloom? Aren't the ones with buds more tender?"

  Zhang Yanping was at a loss for a moment, he doesn't cook, how would he know that what he wants for rapeseed is not flowers but buds?

  But this does not prevent him from being confident:

   "Seventh Cousin," he didn't know what to call, so he just followed Tan Tan: "The bees here are collecting honey, and the flower buds are left to them. Let's eat what they have left, and I won't pick."

   Seventh Cousin: …

  Chef can't hear such words!

   "Don't say this, it's not shabby enough, what kind of family is it? To eat a **** flower, you have to pick the rest of the bees..."

  But thinking about the sweetness of the honey water he tasted yesterday, he couldn't help but smack his lips again:

   "Old woman, did you drink honey water last night?"

   "Drink it." Seventh Grandma replied simply and neatly: "Don't tell me, I slept very soundly at night, and I went to the bathroom this morning, it was smooth."

  As you get older, in fact, your gastrointestinal function is not as good as when you were young, and constipation is commonplace.

  It's only been one night since I came back, the feeling of comfort in the bones, I asked Grandma Seven to say: I feel comfortable everywhere.

  Hearing this, Seventh Cousin also rubbed his belly, remembering that presumptuous reincarnation of grains this morning...

  Look at the blooming **** blossoms in the basket again, let’s eat the leftovers, I really don’t want to dislike them anymore.

  Zhang Yanping followed behind with a basket in his hand. He didn't go very far, but he saw Seventh Cousin stopped by the side of someone else's vegetable garden to look at the coriander crawling all over the ground.

  He looked at it with his head, and immediately asked excitedly: "Do you have fish for lunch?"

   Oh, the wild crucian carp that his uncle caught, the stewed soup and braised in soy sauce are very sweet, no matter how you eat it, you will never get tired of it.

  But I didn’t eat less at home during this time. How many fish did I catch? Why haven't you finished eating?

Just as this thought flashed across my mind, Cousin Seven shook his head: "I rummaged through the refrigerator yesterday, and the crucian carp was gone, and there was only a pack of salted fish cubes left. This coriander is growing pretty well, wait until I get back, go to Big Brother Dig more coriander in the vegetable garden, and I roasted the remaining beef with coriander and pepper."

  Zhang Yanping didn't know what was going on, just hearing the name, his mouth watered.

  Thinking about the taste carefully, I found that I have lived in vain for more than 20 years, and it’s fine if I haven’t eaten the rapeseed flower in front, but why haven’t I eaten the parsley roast beef?

  The stomach is full and swollen, but the mouth is full of saliva. This feeling is especially uncomfortable!

  The three of them walked around half of the mountain, and the seventh cousin only felt refreshed and healthy, and wanted to show off his cooking skills when he saw everything.

   When I was about to go back home, I saw a clump of wolfberries that had just sprouted by the woods.

  So he commanded unceremoniously:

   "Yan Ping, go pick some wolfberry buds."

   Then he took out his phone and called Song Tan:

"Song Tan, have you been to the city yet? Remember to weigh a pound of ground pears when you come back! I'll pick some goji berry buds, and at noon I'll make egg shredded goji berry buds for you with eggs and pork hind legs ball."

  Seventh Cousin said Dilier is a common saying here. The scientific name of this thing is water chestnut. When I was young, I grew rice at home, and I always dug up a lot when plowing the field.

  Song Tan also likes to eat it, but this thing is round like a glutinous rice ball, and it is very troublesome to peel it. Therefore, when she was working in Ningcheng, she would buy fruit stalls for five yuan a bag of chopped fruit to enjoy herself.

  So he responded with one gulp.

   No need to ask, Zhang Yanping has never eaten this dish.

  While carefully picking the wolfberry buds, he also had to be careful not to be pricked, while drooling more and more: How should I say it?

  Suddenly I feel like the head of the imperial dining room.

  …

  At the same time, Uncle Song Dafang lost his temper at home:

   "If you don't want to cook, tell me as soon as possible. I will buy it in the restaurant at the door. I won't be hungry."

   "Exactly!" Sun Yanyan, the daughter-in-law, saw her mother-in-law sitting at the door of the kitchen peeling lettuce again, her head grew dizzy now:

   "Mom, no matter how much lettuce there is, I can't eat it all at once! Ziyi cried after eating it last night."

   Isn't this when I went back to my hometown two days ago, did I bring back all the lettuce from the three places?

  I thought it was as delicious as zi vetch, and I planned to see if I could sell it at a high price or something...

  Who knew that when it was fried that night, it would be no different from the lettuce from my hometown, even from the vegetable market.

  Mao Li's face turned black at that time:

   "How dare you sell twenty-one catties for this thing? No dog will be fooled!"

  Uncle Song's face darkened instantly, and he slapped his chopsticks: "Dogs are not fooled, why are you two making such a big basket?"

  Mao Li: …

  She said in her heart that I didn't scold myself, but you scolded yourself!

  But she only dared to mutter in a low voice: "Then you didn't stop us when we went to dig."

   And look at those dozens of strong lettuces in the kitchen, my God! How should their family of five eat?

  It is impossible to throw it away. If you give it away...why give it away? Why do you ask others to take advantage of you?

  So, when I got home that day, in addition to the fried shredded lettuce that night, Ziyi's porridge the next morning contained diced lettuce.

  Mao Li's cooking skills are mediocre. The lettuce was put in the porridge without blanching. The child pushed the bowl directly: "It's worse than grass."

  It's noon, and the ribs are stewed with lettuce, which is okay, the ribs are still quite fragrant.

  Everyone had a full stomach.

   Can wait until night, in addition to the stewed pork ribs with lettuce left over at noon, add an extra plate of fried shredded pork with lettuce.

  The faces of the whole family were like lettuce, the grass was green, and they tried their best to finish eating.

  Who would have thought that early this morning, Mao Li spread egg pancakes for Ziyi—children, they love beauty, and they usually add a slice of lettuce sandwiched with a slice of tomato, and a slice of bacon.

   Is it delicious? Anyway, it must be bright and have a sense of ceremony.

   It’s no trouble today, the shredded lettuce is rubbed finely, and rolled into it when it’s cooked.

  Including the lunch meal when I went back to my hometown, I ate several lettuce meals in a row.

  Children go to kindergarten crying.

   After finally passing by in the morning, seeing her sitting at the door of the kitchen watching TV while peeling lettuce, the whole family really couldn't bear it.

  Mao Li was also angry: "If it wasn't for Tan Tan's treachery, he deliberately asked us to bring back this unpalatable lettuce, how could there be so many piles in the kitchen?"

   If you don’t eat it quickly, how can you throw it away? This vegetable market costs two yuan a catty!

  They were all peasants. Uncle didn’t say throw it away, but his face was dark: “Then you give it away! Give more to Hongmei, and more to the neighbors. If not, I’ll take it to the store and distribute it to the left and right.”

   "That won't work."

  Mao Li pondered: What should I give if I don’t have any festivals? "

  This lettuce grows strong, and each one weighs a few catties, and two random ones cost more than ten yuan. "

   Alas, I'm hungry for writing... my saliva is drooling.
