Li Dahua is the team leader's mother. Her son and daughter-in-law are both capable, and the family does not need someone of her age to work in the fields to earn work points, so she usually stays at home. Tian Yun is favored at home and is of the same nature as Tian Tian.
If the two of them didn't take the initiative to work, Grandma Tian and Li Dahua would not support them to work, so the two of them were relatively free.
Moreover, Li Dahua was eager for Tian Yun to make good friends and go out more often, so she supported Tian Yun and Tian Tian's interaction even more.
After Tian Yun and Tian Tian met, they went to the mountain where they picked wild vegetables yesterday.
On the way, Tian Tian complained to Tian Yun about being scared by a toad this morning.
Tian Yun yawned. "Why should we be afraid of toads? They don't bite, and they feel cool, slippery, and soft. Everyone in our team went out to pick up toads last night. I picked up quite a few last night! Didn't you go out to pick up some?"
No wonder Tian Yun has been yawning since we met just now, and there are two dark circles under his eyes.
When Tian Tian heard that Tian Yun had caught several frogs personally yesterday, Tian Yun's figure suddenly became taller in her heart, and she was full of admiration for Tian Yun.
Although she dared to eat it, she dared not even touch that thing. If she were asked to touch it, she would want to chop off her hand and throw it away.
Tian Tian smiled awkwardly, "I slept so soundly last night that I didn't even hear any frogs croaking! Those were picked up by my dad and grandma!"
"Then you're at a loss. Picking toads is so much fun. You can find one just by looking up. And stewed toads are the most delicious. You can only eat them once a year. Although you can catch them the rest of the time, it's much more troublesome than now. You still have to work hard to find them." Tian Yun shook his head regretfully, as if Tian Tian had missed something very important.
Tian Tian liked to eat bullfrogs in her previous life. Although she didn't know the difference between this toad and bullfrog, after hearing what Tian Yun said, she was looking forward to the toad made by Old Lady Tian even more.
The two of them chatted and laughed until they reached the mountain, then separated and started picking wild vegetables. It was not known if it was Tian Tian's illusion, but she always felt that after the rain, the wild vegetables in the mountains grew better.
Tian Tian squatted on the sunny hillside to pick wild vegetables. The wild vegetables on this hillside grew particularly well. Tian Tian didn't need to move her feet. She squatted and picked all the wild vegetables in this area. When she looked up, she saw other wild vegetables. Tian Tian was having a lot of fun picking them.
The most sunny slope might have more people coming here, so the grass was not very tall. Unlike other places where the grass was taller, Tian Tian took a particularly straight and beautiful stick she picked up and hit the grass in it.
She was afraid there were snakes inside. Although the snake meat she had eaten last time was very delicious, she didn't want to experience being chased by a snake again.
Tian Tian squatted on the hillside this morning and picked a lot of wild vegetables. She looked up at the sun and found that it was getting late, so she found Tian Yun and hurried down the mountain.
As Tian Tian was carrying the basket back, she could smell the air filled with the scent of stewed meat.
Thinking about what Tian Yun said about everyone coming out to pick up toads last night, Tian Tian was no longer surprised that the road was now filled with the smell of stewed toads.
This can be considered as a free gift from God. Who can resist the temptation of meat that does not require money or tickets? Besides, the taste of toad is so similar to chicken.
Tian Tian smelled the aroma of meat along the way and felt a little excited. Although she had eaten cicada tofu for two days in a row, it was still a little different from real meat. Now that she could eat meat, Tian Tian was happy and even her steps on the way back were lighter.
The earthen basket that had originally pressed on her arm and caused pain now seemed to be floating light.
Tian Tian strode into the yard carrying a basket, "Grandma! I'm back!"
Tian Tian put the basket on the windowsill and ran into the house excitedly.
She had just discovered at the hospital entrance that the toads stewed by Old Lady Tian were the most pungent and fragrant among all the dishes along the way, and she must have added a lot of seasonings.
"Can we eat now?"
"You three are really like siblings! The first thing you ask when you come in is whether you can eat? You are all reincarnated gluttons!" Old Mrs. Tian said rudely when she heard Tian Tian's words, but she opened the lid of the pot, took out a toad's leg from it and handed it to Tian Tian.
"Try it and see if it tastes good?"
Tian Tian took the toad leg, ignored her two younger brothers who were staring at her, blew twice at the toad leg, and then stuffed it into her mouth.
It has a chicken flavor, but it is more fragrant, tender, fresher and tastier than chicken.
There are some mashed potatoes on the toad legs, which makes them taste even more delicious.
"Delicious!" Tian Tian never hesitates to give praise.
Old Mrs. Tian also smiled. "If it tastes good, eat more! Grandma cooked a big pot! It's enough for you guys to eat until your bellies are full!"
Old Mrs. Tian took two clay jars, filled them with toad stewed with potatoes and cornmeal buns, and asked Tian Tian to deliver them to Chen Guihua and the others.
Tian Tian couldn't carry the things by herself, so Tian Zhuo and Tian Baobao, one of them took a clay pot containing cornmeal buns, and the other took bowls and chopsticks. The three siblings went to the fields to deliver food to everyone.
Along the way, Tian Tian and the others saw that the other people working in the fields also ate toads for their meals, so they knew that what Tian Yun said about everyone coming out to pick up toads last night was true. However, this was also good. If only one family in the whole brigade ate toads, it would definitely be very eye-catching. But if every family in the brigade ate toads, then it would be a very normal thing.
Lin Meiyu, Tian Lilin and others were still working in the same field with the educated youth. Tian Tian and others brought food to Lin Meiyu in clay pots.
Ever since Chen Guihua opened the clay pot and started eating the toad from it, all eyes around her were focused on her.
Logically speaking, the old educated youth had lived in their brigade for so many years that they should have known that toads were edible at this time. However, they were not good at cooking and there were only two seasonings in the kitchen, salt and soy sauce. The stewed toads were not as fragrant as the ones stewed by Old Lady Tian with soybean paste.
Secondly, these educated youth had no one to help them. After working all day, they would fall asleep at night. They had no energy to go out and catch toads in the middle of the night, so they could only drool at the aroma of toad meat.
