Chapter 28 Xu felt a little bit impressed and happy
Shao Yunduan couldn't help but nod his head in agreement. Yes, he was really lucky.
The four people returned home. With yesterday's precedent in mind, Fang and Xu had no doubt that the mushrooms were inedible. They happily put them in a winnowing basket and spread them out in a high place to dry.
As for bracken, you can't fry it directly after picking it. Cut off the head and tail, blanch it in boiling water, and then put it in clean water to float.
The coin-sized and thumb-sized bamboo shoots had not yet been shelled, so several women sat together to shell them.
While they were busy, Niu came over with a smile on her face. As soon as she entered the room, she looked around and saw Fang, Qiao Xuan and others peeling bamboo shoots. She immediately lost interest and said with a smile, "Oh, such thin bamboo shoots are all shells. What do you need these things for? Don't you feel tired?"
She heard that several people from the eldest wife had returned from the mountains with several large bags of things, and she thought they were some great finds, so she came over to take a look.
Who knew it was this thing.
Fang glanced at her and said incoherently, "Yes, the child is just playing around because he wants to find something new."
Niu said with disdain, but glanced at the basket beside her which was half filled with peeled, white, tender bamboo shoots, and bent over to pick them up, saying with a grin, "Oh, Xiaoqi and Taotao are really hardworking. I'll take a few back to try!"
Unexpectedly, a pair of hands stretched out from the side and took the whole basket away swiftly.
Qiao Xuan stood up holding the bamboo basket and said with a smile, "Mom, do you want to blanch these bamboo shoots in boiling water?"
Niu missed her hug and was a little dumbfounded. She didn't react for a while and looked a little funny.
Fang laughed out loud and nodded at her: "Yes, it needs to be blanched, but you'd better not move, be careful not to burn your hands, Xu, you go ahead."
Xu quickly agreed, took the bamboo basket and went.
She was also anxious when Second Aunt was about to pick up the bamboo shoots, because you know Second Aunt would never be polite and might pick them all up.
These bamboo shoots are delicious, but there is more shell than meat. They worked hard to peel half a basket of them. Wouldn’t they feel bad if Second Aunt took it away for nothing?
But she was so anxious that she didn't dare to stop it. Who knew that her fifth brother's wife actually stopped it.
Xu felt a little bit impressed and happy.
Niu was so angry that she fumed and snorted, "Qiao, you are too stingy! They are your closest relatives, but you are just protecting a few bamboo shoots like this?"
Qiao Xuan smiled awkwardly: "Such thin bamboo shoots are all shelled, it's very tiring to peel them, I really don't want to do it. By the way, Second Aunt, there are so many thin bamboo shoots in the mountain. If you want to eat them, you might as well pick some yourself, it's very convenient!"
Qiao Xuan wasn't really that stingy, but it was unbearable for Niu to make sarcastic remarks while trying to take advantage of her.
Niu: “.”
Fang laughed out loud, "Yes, second sister-in-law, this is not something precious. There are plenty of them on the mountain. If you want to eat them, just pick them! We have a large family, and this is only enough for two meals. I won't let you."
Niu snorted, "How stingy!" She even looked down upon the plain and simple fried bamboo shoots!
It's just that he's used to taking advantage of others and it's just a habit.
They refused to give it to her, and she was too lazy to bother with these few bamboo shoots. But, since she was already here, it would be a shame if she didn't say a few words.
Niu's eyes rolled and she suddenly smiled and said, "Qiao, you should go back tomorrow, right? Have you prepared all the gifts? Tell me what you are going to bring. I can help you with some ideas!"
