Zhao Wei bent down and grabbed a handful of locusts. The insects were crawling densely between his fingers, and the buzzing sound of their wings vibrating merged into a muddy sound wave.
Huangmao turned his face away with disgust, squatted on the edge of the field, and watched him throw two bags of locusts into the carriage, and couldn't help frowning.
"Master, these things are really nasty. Is there no way to destroy them?"
"I don't know when it will spread to our village, alas..."
When the nest is overturned, no eggs can remain intact.
What if this thing runs into their village? That would be terrible.
Huangmao was already looking forward to a good harvest and didn't want to deal with these insects anymore.
"Of course there is a way. Can't you see I'm busy destroying it?"
Zhao Wei wiped the sweat off his forehead with his sleeve. The sweat dripped onto the dry corn leaves, instantly leaving a small stain.
Huang Mao said speechlessly: "If we keep catching them like this, it will take forever. I'm afraid that all the crops will be eaten up and we won't be able to catch them all."
This thing has a strong reproductive ability and it is not something they can handle with just their two hands.
"Tsk tsk... Of course we have to rely on our own hands to solve it. A person's hands are limited, and when everyone is mobilized together, the power is very strong."
Zhao Wei didn't say much. His clothes were already full and he couldn't hold any more. He decided to go home first.
In the yard of Zhao Wei's house, Liu Qian was busy chopping firewood.
This performance surprised Zhao Wei when he stepped into the courtyard.
"Why did you come here to work?"
When did you become so diligent?
It is said that a prodigal son who returns is worth more than gold.
After this little prodigal boy turned into a good person, it was really hard for people to get used to him.
"Cousin, I see that you are not at home, and a lot of work is done by my uncle and cousin's wife. It's too hard, so I want to come and help."
After saying this, she blushed a little.
He said he was here to help, but it seemed more like he was making things worse.
I accidentally pricked my hand and it's still wrapped in gauze.
Not wanting to be seen by Zhao Wei, he quietly hid his hands behind his back.
People like Zhao Wei have the sharpest eyes. How can one escape from these sharp eyes?
However, knowing that this guy had a strong sense of self-esteem, he did not expose the truth but only showed the two large bags of bugs.
"To reward you, I'll treat you to something delicious later."
These words made Huangmao's face change a little.
Isn't it for feeding chickens?
It sounds like it's for human consumption.
Then, he looked at Liu Qian with sympathy again.
This guy didn't know the seriousness of the situation and asked excitedly: "What's delicious?"
Zhao Wei smiled without saying anything and just told him to wait.
The yellow-haired man looked up at the sky and said nothing.
Well, he should have gone home originally, but he wanted to see Liu Qian being humiliated, so he stayed.
So, when the whole family was still confused, Zhao Wei had already brought it to the table in a large porcelain basin.
Huangmao also sat aside, and then looked at the tightly covered basin, and said to Liu Qian nervously and jokingly: "What are you still standing there for? This is specially prepared for you, open it quickly!"
Liu Qian was already extremely hungry and thirsty, so he opened the lid without a second thought.
As a result, he was so frightened by what he saw that he screamed and threw the lid away, howling in pain.
"What kind of bug is this? It's so disgusting!"
The rest of the family members, one by one, left the table in disgust, not daring to even look at the food on the plate.
Even Zhao Nan, who had just recovered from a serious illness, was retching there, complaining: "Why put such disgusting things here? Take it out and throw it away!"
Liu Qian was so embarrassed that he didn't move.
Huangmao didn't dare to touch his master's things and could only sit there pretending to be dead.
Everyone looked at Zhao Yong, who said with a stiff upper lip: "Don't play such pranks during a meal. People will be scared to death."
It would be even worse if the old man was frightened and something bad happened.
So he walked forward, picked up the porcelain basin and threw it away.
As a result, he was naturally intercepted by Zhao Wei.
"Why are you throwing away such delicious bugs? You guys are so ungrateful!"
"You will be damned if you waste food. Sit down and eat something."
…
If this thing were put in later times, the price of a bug banquet would be ridiculously expensive.
You can just string a few together and sell them for two or three dollars.
The ones that are free now are pure natural and pollution-free, and are not fed with any drugs, so they should taste better.
So, under everyone's disgusted and stunned gazes, he started eating with big mouthfuls.
It's so delicious that you can't stop eating it once you start.
Lin Qinghe actually followed suit.
As he ate, he said, "I went to a small town on the southwestern border in previous years. The people there loved to cook insects like this. I was lucky enough to have a feast of insects once. It was really delicious. I still miss it to this day!"
Zhao Wei immediately started discussing with him.
"Master, have you ever eaten spiders? Centipedes, scorpions..."
"Yes, yes, yes. I've eaten them all. There are also many that you may not have seen before, such as lychee worms. I've eaten them all. Tsk tsk..."
"Hehe...if I have the chance, I really want to go and have a meal, slurp..."
The master and the disciple both drooled, their appetites so great that they kept catching insects. Soon, they had finished half a bowl of food.
This eating speed greatly stimulated Huangmao.
He is a fearless person, but actually he is so timid. If others tell this, he will be laughed at.
So he took the opportunity to grab one, put it in his mouth, and started chewing with his eyes closed.
You won’t know until you try it.
It is so peppery and delicious that it has no rivals.
Once the sense of taste is awakened, there is no going back.
At this moment, there was no trace of disgust in his eyes. He only regretted that he didn't have a few more mouths so that he could eat it all in one bite.
Yunxiu hadn't picked up her chopsticks yet, but when she saw Huangmao start eating, she felt a little moved.
But I still collapsed and didn’t eat.
She couldn't get over this hurdle in her heart.
Zhao Wei did not force her, but just said to her: "Wife, if you don't want to eat, then don't eat. There are thousands of foods in the world, don't force yourself."
Of course, you can't dislike him as your husband.
Well, he just ate a bug, not shit.
There is no reason for my wife not to kiss her in the future.
Ahem…
Yunxiu thought for a long time, and after half of the insects in the porcelain basin had disappeared, she finally made up her mind and picked up one and put it in her mouth.
They are one as husband and wife, and a miracle doctor like Lin Qinghe is so greedy for it, so it must be delicious.
She didn't want to be estranged from Zhao Wei, so she gritted her teeth and ate it.
As it turned out, it was true that once I started eating, I couldn't stop eating and joined the army of gluttons, shocking those family members who were still watching.
