Song Tan Jishi

  Song Tan quickly stood up:

   "Okay, let's see whose land it is, and I'll tell them."

   Coincidentally, this piece of barren land happens to belong to Aunt Lianhua's family.

   "You mean the field at the foot of the mountain?" Aunt Lianhua thought about it—the field hadn't been planted for many years.

  Her man is not here, her children are not here, and she has a paralyzed mother-in-law. How can she have time to serve the land? It would be nice to be able to grow a la carte.

   At this moment, he waved his hand: "You can do whatever you want!"

   I’m a little embarrassed after finishing speaking:

   "I wanted to ask, Tan Tan, if you want to land the land this year..."

  Although her land is at the foot of the mountain, there is another piece of land in the middle, and it is not connected with the land under Song Tan's contract, so I am not ashamed to ask.

  Song Tan laughed: "Don't worry, if there is a chance next year, I will definitely take it!"

  As she spoke, she quickly picked up the basket again: "Master Wang, let's go, we're going to pick perilla now."

  In the corner, Zhang Yanping, who was trying to reduce his presence, let out a silent sigh of relief.

  …

  The big sun after nine o'clock is really a bit drying.

  Wang Xiaoshun was sweating profusely wearing a straw hat, while carefully looking at Song Tan:

   "Well... the perilla can't escape, why don't you pick it at night?"

  However, Song Tan went to the field to have a look and found that there were quite a lot of them—the field is not big, about two or three minutes. But this purple perilla is scattered here and there, and even sporadic spots occupy most of the field.

   If you make sauce once, it will be enough for the workers to eat for a year!

   Song Tan was ecstatic.

  If we don’t hurry up, Master Qian and Wang Xiaoshun will go away later, and the labor force of the two will be reduced for no reason, that will not work!

  She then smiled very considerately and kindly: "It's okay, Master Wang, let's not pick too much today, just pick two baskets first, and cook a pot first when we go back."

  Picking perilla leaves is not troublesome, you only need to pick the young leaves above the pole, and it is really quick to pick.

  Wang Xiaoshun thought about it this way, there are really not many two baskets, who made Boss Song so generous?

  At this moment, he picked up the basket: "Okay, let's pick two baskets first."

  The two stood in the grass, pulling the leaves of perilla with their fingers "twittering" with quick and even movements.

   Soon, Wang Xiaoshun saw that Song Tan's basket was full.

   Look at yourself again—only one-third of the basket, is there something wrong?

   But it's really hot, since there are only half of the basket left. The two of them will pick it up faster!

  He speeded up again in an instant.

  However, after a while, I was still the only one picking this basket... No!

  He raised his head again, only to find that Song Tan's basket had become more than half of it now.

   And after she quickly picked a handful of perilla leaves, she pressed her palm directly into the basket, and then put the leaves on.

  Wang Xiaoshun:...

  By ten o'clock, the two baskets were already stuffed to the brim, and they were overwhelmed and overwhelmed. It's heavy to lift, and it's not easy to lift your legs.

  Wang Xiaoshun was still a little silent.

  Because he only picked one basket, and the rest was packed and filled, all of which belonged to Song Tanqian.

  Thinking of this, he couldn't help showing admiration in his eyes:

   "It's still you who work in the fields every day, and your movements are nimble and fast...I'm far behind."

  Song Tan just smiled and said nothing.

  Turning her head, she looked at the bald perilla stalk she had just picked, and asked casually:

   "Brother Xiaoshun, will these basil grow again?"

   "It will definitely grow."

  Wang Xiaoshun blurted out, and taught Song Tan along the way:

   "My master told me when he taught this before. Time flies, and this time is talking about perilla. The combination of this word means that perilla is very long and grows fast!"

  He said casually: "But it's only two days in August. By September, it's time to flower and grow seeds here. Once the ears are sprouted, its leaves can only be used for medicine, and can't be eaten anymore."

What? Can it still be used medicinally?

  Song Tan turned his head, his eyes were burning.

   This purple and green plant deserves the surname Song!

   And it's the end of August!

  Song Tan thought about it in his heart, and discussed it with Ulan when he got home: "Mom, ask Aunt Zhang if they are free?"

   "If you have time, I will go to Aunt Lianhua's field this afternoon and pick all the perilla, and the masters on both sides will make the sauce together."

  At first, I wanted to dry it slowly, but since the time is so tight, let’s do it first!

   After picking it tonight, she will go to feed some spiritual energy at night, be a little more diligent, maybe there will be another batch of good taste in early September, and I will keep it for making perilla sauce!

   No matter how bad it is, selling it to Dr. Xiao Guo for medicinal purposes is not a loss!

  Song Tan took out a small notebook and solemnly wrote down the plants to be planted next year.

  …

  Wang Xiaoshun didn't know what they got for their initiative.

   Now I got off the tricycle and came to the kitchen excitedly carrying two baskets: "Master, look at these perilla leaves, they are so tender! It must be delicious for lunch."

   "Forget it then."

  Master Qian understands the differences in tastes from person to person. Some people are not used to eating it, he really is not used to it at all, it has nothing to do with whether it is good or not.

  For example, Song Tan’s coriander, those who like it will grab it, and those who don’t like it will not buy any.

At this moment, he glanced at the two baskets of leaves that Wang Xiaoshun was carrying with great difficulty. He didn't take it seriously: "Look at you, why can't you lift it? Hurry up, find two big pots, soak them in salt water first, so as not to get on your head." There are bugs or something."

  Wang Xiaoshun worked hard and didn't complain, but didn't say a word.

  However, when he pushed the perilla leaves in the basket into the water one by one, Master Qian couldn't sit still—

   "You silly boy! Why is the basket so firmly pressed? How much do you have to do this time?!"

  Wang Xiaoshun is also innocent: "I went to pick it with Boss Xiao Song. She moves too fast and I can't keep up. I can't say I won't pick it..."

  So, two baskets of perilla leaves were soaked in 4 large pots. After a bag of salt was sprinkled into the water, Master Qian wiped off his sweat, and then thankfully said:

   "Fortunately, it's in an air-conditioned room."

  …

At this moment, Song Tan was also asking: "Seventh Cousin, can you make that perilla sauce? If you can, I will fertilize Aunt Lianhua's field these two days, so that the perilla sauce will be better. Changchang, let's make some more delicious ones."

   "Are you so fat?" Seventh Cousin took a look at her, and calmly knocked on the rice spoon: "I definitely will."

  The method of cooking sauce in the world is always the same. Although he has not survived it, can he still do it?

   Let’s find the old money.

  Wu Lan heard it, and thought to herself: Tan Tan's mouth is really tight, it's been half a year, and I don't know what formula she uses!

   But this is good, no one can take it away.

  She turned her head and discussed with Aunt Lianhua who was washing vegetables: "Lianhua, Tantan wants to fertilize your field, why don't you ask someone to weed the weeds in autumn, and plant some vegetables along the way?"

   "Take it and sell it for yourself, it's fine."

   However, Aunt Lianhua pursed her lips and smiled, then shook her head again: "Forget it."

   "Sister, I eat here with my mother-in-law every day. It's been a long time since the house started fire."

   "Again, we are well paid, and we don't have time to clean up."

  What she didn't say was, if she tidied up the field beautifully, and her child and man came back during the Chinese New Year, could she insist on not giving money, and stop others from picking vegetables in her field?

  I would rather leave them empty than cheap them.

  About basil, we eat barbecue here, or use this to heat the tea pot before frying tea.

  I think many friends use perilla for fish, but I don’t have it here. I always use Huoxiang here, Huoxiang is my favorite for fish!

  Green tomatoes (I know they are poisonous but we have eaten them like this since we were young, but we don’t eat them every day) Stir-fried chilli fish nuggets with green tomatoes, especially with rice! (Do not imitate, at your own risk)

  Good afternoon, this is from yesterday.
