Girlfriend's Fortune

Chapter 6 Chapter 6: Chili

Chapter 6 Chapter [-]

The adults in Songshan Village either do long-term labor at the landlord's house, or go to the mountains to collect firewood, or are busy inside and outside the house, and there is also a hunting family for a living.

When the fungus came out, most of the pickers were half-grown children, carrying baskets and carrying baskets, running around in the mountains, touching two wild fruits to eat from time to time, and felt very happy.

No matter how much they pick up or how little they pick up, they won't be scolded when they go back. People like Song Qiu and Zhang Lihua who pick up fungi seriously don't want to play less.

No, just after Song Qiu passed a slope, he saw Wang Huzi climbing to a tree to dig out bird eggs.

She told him to be careful not to fall, and went on.

Dive into a thicker pine forest.

Song Qiu found three pine fungi next to each other under a pine tree, they were big and fresh, picked them up carefully, and put them in the basket.

He straightened up and went forward. Before taking two steps, he found a cluster of umbrella mushrooms in the grass at the bottom of the slope.

This is a good thing, it is more expensive than mountain fungus, and it can sell for ten yuan a catty.

She squatted down hurriedly, carefully picked up the clump of umbrella mushrooms, wrapped it with a big leaf and put it in the basket.

Xu was a bit lucky today, Song Qiu just turned around a slope, and found another clump of umbrella mushrooms in the ridge.

This clump of umbrella mushrooms is more than the one just now, at least four or five catties!
Eyes full of copper plates, Song Qiu was as happy as a mouse, and immediately got down, carefully picked up the clump of umbrella mushrooms, and put them in the back basket, the back basket was full, and it was not easy to hold mushrooms.

She planned to carry it home first, and she happened to be going back to eat, so she would pick it up after eating.

Out of the pine forest, Zhang Lihua was coming this way, subconsciously looked into Song Qiu's back basket, saw the umbrella mushroom, and his eyes lit up immediately.

"Aqiu, you stepped on dog shit today! You actually picked up so many gallinaceous mushrooms! You're so mad!"

Song Qiu couldn't help but twitched the corners of his mouth, "You just stepped on shit."

Zhang Lihua giggled, leaned on Song Qiu's back basket and looked inside, thinking to look a few more times, maybe she could pick up a bunch later!

Back home with a basket on his back, Mrs. Yuan was very happy to see that her granddaughter had picked up so many colpodium mushrooms. Sell ​​it in town."

Things that cost ten yuan a catty are expensive, but meat is only twelve yuan. There are probably few people in the countryside who buy them, so of course it's better to go to the town to be safe.

Since I want to go to the town, I have to pick up more mushrooms, after all, going to the town is not easy.

Song Qiu helped to light the fire, and the old Yuan slammed the pot, put water to wash the rice, and cooked a pot of porridge, just in time to cook the dinner together.

Put the steamer on the pot, pick a tender eggplant that has just grown up, wash it with a handful of bright peppers and throw it on the steamer.

The vegetable porridge in the pot is almost cooked, and the eggplant and pepper are fully cooked. Lao Yuan uses chopsticks to take out the eggplant and pepper and put them in a small pair of nests. Sprinkle some salt and put two heads of garlic. Song Qiu, who was lighting the fire, went on to cut the meat.

Song Qiu took it and pounded the eggplants and peppers in the nest with a pestle.

It has to be said that the place she traveled through has many customs similar to the hometown she lived in in the previous life, maybe the future life will be their place.

For example, this dish of pounded eggplant and pepper, she ate a lot in her hometown when she was a child.

The vegetable porridge in the pot has been cooked. Old Yuan took out the pottery porridge and cleaned the pot with a bamboo brush. Then he took out a small oil pot from the cupboard and took a small spoonful Put half of the soybean oil into the pot.

After the oil is hot, add the shredded pork and fry it.

Song Qiu melted the eggplant and chili until they were rotten, and put them on the stove, watching her grandma stir fry the vegetables with a spatula.

Speaking of cooking in an iron pan, according to Yuan's memory, it was only a few years ago that it gradually spread to ordinary people's homes.

Just like peppers and many fruits and vegetables, they have only been widely planted in recent years.

Soybean oil has long been available, but because iron is expensive, only rich people have used iron pans for a long time.

However, a few years ago, the imperial court developed a lot of iron mines, and the control over iron was not so strict.

A big iron pot like this costs 150 yuan a mouthful. If the house is a little better, you can buy it with a bite.

The key is that stir-frying is good, it's better than cooking in jars before.

Song Qiu was thinking about this, when she saw her grandma put down the sliced ​​meat and stir fry it with a spatula, sprinkle a few grains of salt, throw in the sliced ​​courgettes, then mixed a ladle of water, and covered the pot Started to get bored.

I couldn't help but twitched the corners of my mouth. Sure enough, even if it was stir-fried, it was no different from the boiled ones in the past. It was just that it was cooked in an iron pot instead of a jar.

When the food came to the table, Song Qiu held a bowl of porridge and stretched out his chopsticks to pick up a piece of meat. The meat was cooked soft and firm, with a bit of firewood, just a little bit of salt, and no other taste.

My mouth, which is used to eating spicy dishes, is really not used to it.

As for the peppers in Mancaiyuanzi, she never imagined that she cut the peppers and fried meat.

By the way, chili has only been popular for a few years, how do you eat it?Almost all of them are steamed and eaten together with eggplant, but they are rarely fried.

And as soon as the hot pepper has passed through the season, everyone seems to let it rot, harvest enough seeds, and just wait for the next year to plant again.

Extracting this point from the original body's memory, Song Qiu turned his head to look at the pepper tree in the yard, his eyes lit up slightly, and he had some thoughts.

But now is not the time.

After dinner, the old Yuan stayed at home to deal with the mountain fungus. Song Qiu put on the pan and called Lihua in the yard. When Zhang Lihua next door came out with the pan on his back, the two went up the mountain together.

The sun in the early summer is still good by noon, and it can be tolerated. People in the country, it is important to live hard. Who cares whether it is hot or not?

All the way up the mountain, Song Qiu gave Zhang Lihua a few slices of meat wrapped in vegetable leaves from the basket, "I bought a few taels of meat at the market in the morning. I fried it with milk. You can eat some."

Zhang Donggua and his wife often worked in the landlord's house and rarely came back, and Zhang Yang often saw no one. Zhang Lihua was the only one in the family who lived under the old Deng's hand. There is no need to eat, let alone meat.

When Zhang Lihua saw the meat, her eyes lit up, she reached out to take it, grabbed a piece and fed it into her mouth, nodding in satisfaction while eating, "Grandma Yuan's fried meat is really delicious!"

Song Qiu smiled slightly, that's meat, can it be delicious?If she cooks it, it will be even better.

It is impossible for the place picked up in the morning to be posted again in such a short time. The two of them swept around and then went up the mountainside ahead.

These hills are all one after the other, and there are two small hills at the back. There is still a road down the hill, which is the official road outside.

And go ahead, the end is the main peak.

Walking to the top of the highest mountain, you can see Songshan Temple on the main peak at a glance.
