The spring rain fell heavier at night.
The sound of raindrops quickly moistened the soil in the quiet night. The cold water vapor and wisps of white mist filled the mountains, forests, ponds and fields, making the green more intense and the tender leaves more stretched...
By daybreak, the rain had stopped, but the weather was still gloomy.
Song Sancheng brought some firewood from outside and stuffed it into the stove to make it burn more vigorously, while clapping his hands: "What are we having for breakfast this morning?"
After a few busy days, Wulan only had free time last night and today. She had a good night's sleep recently. The air smelled fresh and she was in a good mood.
"Let's eat dumplings. The shepherd's purse from last night was so fresh."
Chop the green shepherd's purse into small pieces, mix it with the slightly grainy minced meat, wrap it with soft dough, and mix it with vinegar...
fresh.
It’s so delicious that I want to swallow my tongue.
Song Sancheng drank two large bowls by himself.
Qiao Qiao even ate three bowls, and then drank half a bowl of dumpling soup: "Mom, it's delicious!"
“You little brat, you’re eating me into poverty” is really not a lie. I just made it last night, and Wulan was thinking of freezing the leftovers in the fridge and having them for breakfast later. But she didn’t expect that everyone’s appetite has increased recently, and they were all gone in one meal.
Except Song Tan.
It was fresh, but there were indeed impurities. Song Tan ate a bowl of this mixed taste, and it felt like he was eating a bowl of fragrant rice mixed with sand.
Every time she ate, she vowed to grow her own food.
Wu Lan saw that she was still thin, and wondered, "Did you get hungry from working outside? You work hard every day, so why do you still have such a small appetite?"
Song Tan thought: It’s not that her stomach is bad, she’s just picky about food.
But if she was picky about eating wild vegetables, her mother would probably roll her eyes and scold her, "You've just eaten too much good food and become spoiled."
So she changed the subject: "Were the wild vegetables delicious yesterday? They must be even more delicious after the rain!"
Are wild vegetables delicious
How come it doesn’t taste good!
The green and red-stemmed Amaranthus was blanched and chopped into small pieces, then some minced meat was added.
Then crack a duck egg, beat it, add some cooking wine, salt and MSG, and fry it into egg shreds in the pan using a colander.
Then stir-fry the chopped green onion and shredded ginger, then add the minced meat, water spinach and duck eggs…
It’s crispy, fragrant, refreshing and delicious, how can it not be delicious
Blanch the remaining watercress, add salt and MSG and mix well.
Then slowly fry the peppercorns in oil until fragrant, then add soy sauce, ginger and garlic juice, sugar, MSG, pepper oil, chili flakes, and chopped green onions, and add the blanched watercress. Mix well…
Suck it!
Crisp, tender and refreshing, spicy and fresh.
Served with wild onion and crucian carp soup and scrambled eggs, the family of four finished up yesterday's basket of wild vegetables.
Then I would chop shepherd’s purse and make dumplings after I was full.
Now thinking about it makes me feel greedy.
Yesterday’s wild vegetables were so delicious. After being stimulated by spiritual energy, today’s wild vegetables should be even more delicious, right
Song Tan thought about his first business: "Mom, how much do you think I should sell per pound tomorrow morning?"
Even though it is the beginning of March, the vegetables have not yet sprouted, and this is the time when there is a shortage of food.
The lettuce is bitter, the black and white cabbages are old, and the yellow cabbage is even less sweet. If you go to the supermarket, any greenhouse vegetable will cost you at least ten or eight yuan.
Wulan was very good at managing the household, but had no experience in selling wild vegetables. After thinking for a while, he said, "Why don't you sell them for ten yuan a pound?"
There's no reason, just to settle the score.
This price is really not expensive for today's vegetable market, but it is wild vegetable after all. Wulan knows in her heart that everyone in the city likes to eat it, but her childhood experience still makes her subconsciously not care.
Therefore, I feel particularly unsure about the ten dollars.
Song Tan thought about it and decided that ten dollars would be fine.
Wild vegetables are not easy to eat. Even though they are a bunch, they become a small ball after being boiled in water. She believes that the quality of vegetables nourished by spiritual energy is definitely good, but this is her first business, so she has to let everyone taste it before talking about the future.
"Okay, ten bucks!"
Song Sancheng suggested: "The shepherd's purse is really good this year. Why don't we make some dumplings and freeze them? Otherwise, we'll start growing mushrooms in a couple of days, and then we'll just have to eat them whole when we're busy."
In two days, everything will be ready to plant the mushroom cultures. Song Sancheng discussed with Song Tan that this job doesn't need to be done quickly, so why not just ask some old men and women to do it.
"They are old, so their hands may not be slow. Don't be disgusted if they are slow, Tantan... There are only so many families left in our village now. They are old, and they just sit there in a daze and doze off every day. It's sad to see them."
"Just call them over, don't ask for money, just do it slowly, and when you're done we'll buy some meat for you to carry back, and we'll help you with anything else, and your grandparents can help watch over you while you're working... Is that okay with you?"
Okay.
Why not
Song Tan agreed readily.
Firstly, there is no rush for the black fungus and white fungus to sprout now... the net around her has not been drawn yet!
Besides, we are all villagers, so it doesn't matter who we ask for help. Her grandparents have become increasingly depressed in recent years, so having something to do is better than being idle.
only…
Song Tan looked at his small yard with a motorcycle and a flower bed and said, "Our yard is a bit small."
To plant the fungus, you need to press the fungus into the small holes that have been made in advance on the chestnut tree trunk. The tree trunk is a bit long and heavy, and the yard can hold it, but it is always inconvenient to move around.
Song Sancheng thought for a moment and said, "I'll talk to your grandfather later and put it in his yard, which is spacious. Your grandmother will be in charge of cooking, and your mother will help... There are only eight or nine elderly people in the village, and they don't eat much, so we can just take the rice, noodles and vegetables over there."
The family of four sorted out the things (Qiao Qiao was responsible for humming), and felt that everything was arranged. Seeing that it was almost nine o'clock, Song Tan quickly called Qiao Qiao:
"Let's go and pick shepherd's purse with a big basket!"
By the way, let’s take a look at how many wild vegetables were produced by yesterday’s spiritual energy.
Climbing up the hill again like he was used to it, Qiao Qiao was stunned.
He opened his mouth: "(⊙o⊙) Wow!"
"Sister, it's so green!"
Isn’t it so green
Wild onions grew wildly in clumps, as dense as layers of hair, occupying the entire edge of the mountain slope.
The water spinach that was just enough to fill a plate yesterday is now competing to poke out its green heads, with green and red stems crowded together, making it seem like one could not pluck a whole plate with one hand.
Shepherd's purse... Not to mention shepherd's purse, it grows densely in the cracks, and its leaves are so tender that they seem to be about to burst into water.
You can smell the strong fragrance of green grass even before it is picked.
It forms a strong contrast with the branches of the nearby woods that have just sprouted green leaves.
Song Tan was actually mentally prepared and confident. But at this moment, he was still dazed and leaned on Qiao Qiao to dig a basket of fresh shepherd's purse back.
On the way back, I stopped by the pond to take a look.
very good.
Dense patches of watercress and purslane occupied the area one by one, growing wildly as if they had been injected with hormones, and you could not see the ground or the water surface beside the pond!
She suppressed her inner joy—
These dishes nowadays are really too considerate to spiritual energy!
