At first, Fang Zheng just thought this method was fun, not necessarily delicious.
But after a while, Fang Zheng smelled a faint mushroom scent. Likewise, the taste is very bland, so bland that it doesn't seem to taste very delicious.
After a while, Jin Jiatong carefully picked up the lotus leaf.
Little Taiyang next to him wiped the saliva from the corner of his mouth and said, "Brother, I can smell the Qizhen soup. I really want to drink it."
"Is this Qizhen Soup?" Fang Zheng asked in surprise. He didn't expect that the little guy made it casually and it had such an elegant name.
Jin Jiatong said: "This is a practice passed down from our village. It is said that the ancestors were very particular when making it. They used precious fungi from the mountains at a specific time and place to make it, so it is called Qizhen Soup.
But right now we just want to eat and fill our stomachs, so we don’t have time to look for those things, and we may not be able to find them. In addition, there is no seasoning, just a little salt, so just eat it.
This Qizhen soup is filled with water inside the lotus leaves, so the water cannot flow out. Heating it through the soil will not burn the lotus leaves. The water and mushrooms inside boil in the lotus leaves, and all the fragrance is locked in the lotus leaves, so even without other condiments, the soup still tastes good. "
While talking, Little Sun made a simple small bowl out of lotus leaves, held it in both hands and handed it to Fang Zheng.
Fang Zheng looked at the delicate lotus leaf bowl in his hand, with a flash of surprise in his eyes. This small bowl is very simple but definitely not simple. If you want to make it into a small bowl without damaging the lotus leaves, and without it falling apart, this is definitely a technical job.
Fang Zheng glanced at the little sun sitting on the side, quietly shaking his little feet, and then skillfully folding a lotus leaf into small bowls. He found that these two children brought him more and more incredible things. …
"Master, drink the soup." Jin Jiatong said, tearing a small hole on the edge of the lotus leaf pot, and the soup inside immediately rushed out and fell into the small bowl in Fang Zheng's hand.
When it is full, Jin Jiatong only needs to pour the lotus leaf pot slightly to prevent the soup from flowing out. Then I poured another bowl for Little Sun and myself...
Fang Zheng had no time to pay attention to the situation over there. All his attention was on the lotus leaf bowl in front of him, or Qizhen Soup to be precise!
There is no oil in this soup, but the aroma of mushrooms wafting out of the soup outweighs all the oil. The aroma was so fragrant that it made people move their index fingers. Fang Zheng couldn't help but take a bite first. He only felt the fragrance lingering on his lips and teeth. He couldn't tell what kind of mushroom it was in that mouthful. It seemed to have a little bit of it, but the fusion was so perfect. It was fragrant. It was tempting to drink it, but after a few sips, Fang Zheng sadly discovered that the soup was gone!
Seeing this, Jin Jiatong smiled and said, "Master, if you like, drink more."
Fang Zheng nodded repeatedly and said, "It is indeed delicious. This is the best soup I have ever tasted."
After another bowl, the soup in the lotus leaf had already bottomed out, and Fang Zheng was naturally embarrassed to argue with the two children again.
No matter how Jin Jiatong tried to persuade him, he just refused to drink.
Jin Jiatong had no choice but to lick his lips to Little Sun, who was like a greedy cat. Little Sun was holding a lotus leaf bowl, drinking sweetly, and his big eyes turned into small crescents, very cute.
After finishing the soup, Jin Jiatong said: "Master, the soup is finished, you can eat the staple food."
"Staple food?" Fang Zheng was stunned. Is there anything else around here that can be used as a staple food
Jin Jiatong opened the lotus leaf pot and spread the lotus leaves on the ground. There was a small pile of mushrooms lying on the lotus leaves! Although these mushrooms are not beautiful, they are also black, white, cyan, and light red! Coupled with the green color of the lotus leaves, and the moment the lotus leaf pot was opened, all the aromas wrapped in it exploded at the same time, and the fragrant aroma came to the nostrils. Fang Zheng felt his stomach growling, and all his gluttons were activated. Got it!
At this moment, a small hand stretched out and grabbed it randomly.
Jin Jiatong quickly slapped the little hand. Little Taiyang stuck out his tongue, took back his hot and slightly red hand, pouted his little mouth, and said pitifully: "Brother, I'm hungry..."
Jin Jiatong said: "There are guests here."
Little Sun said: "But the guests are good people. You shouldn't be so polite with good people. If everyone eats, it will be more delicious if you are not polite."
Jin Jiatong was about to say something when Fang Zheng smiled and said: "The little donor is right, don't be polite. If you are polite, you will get angry and the food will not be so delicious. Little donor, don't be polite, just eat."
After saying that, Fang Zheng stopped being polite, reached out and grabbed a piece of net-shaped bamboo shoots and threw it into his mouth. The entrance was smooth and tender, and the aroma went straight to his internal organs. Fang Zheng was so happy that he couldn't help but praise: "It's delicious!"
I saw that Fang Zheng no longer maintained his elegant, gentle and elegant look, but sat cross-legged with his sleeves rolled up, looking like the big brother next door.
Jin Jiatong didn't know why, but when he looked at Fang Zheng's smile, he started to smile, and then a string that had been secretly tense also relaxed, which was the restraint and politeness towards strangers and benefactors.
Putting everything down, Jin Jiatong grabbed the mushroom and handed it to Little Yang. He smiled happily as he watched Little Yang eating, helped her wipe the soup from the corner of her mouth, and then ate it herself.
There were only so many mushrooms, so Fang Zheng naturally wouldn't eat too much. He simply ate a few bites, and then used Yi Meng Huang Liang to make the two of them feel that he had eaten a lot. You're welcome, so he let himself go.
Seeing the two little guys burping after eating, Fang Zheng also laughed.
The meal was cooked by Jin Jiatong, and Fang Zheng helped clean up after the meal as a matter of course. As a result... he was disliked again!
"Master, you should recite sutras and look at the scenery. This... you are not very good at it." Jin Jiatong said with a smile. This is not your previous honorific, but a ridicule.
Fang Zheng rubbed his bald head in embarrassment and thought to himself. He was also from a poor family and had lived in the mountains. Logically speaking, his ability to clean up food should not be any weaker than Jin Jiatong's!
But here, facing the picnic, no matter what he does, it seems that he is far inferior to Jin Jiatong, and even a little inferior to Little Sun...
Since he was disliked, Fang Zheng stopped being polite and ran away to really enjoy the scenery.
Not long after, the two little guys put out the fire completely, and then buried it deep with soil. The remaining leaves were also buried in it, and everything seemed to be back to the scene before they came.
Fang Zheng asked in surprise: "You did it so thoroughly?"
Little Sun shook the sky-high braid on his head and said cutely: "My dad said that those who rely on the mountain must love the mountain and cannot destroy it. If it is destroyed, we must work hard to restore it to its original state, so that it can last forever. "
