Chapter 127 Spring Bamboo Shoots
Wang Dahua's expression was solemn. She also found this scary. When she heard it, she broke out in a cold sweat. For several years, she felt a chill on her back whenever she saw Zhang Hongyun.
"What a sin! I've kept this secret in my heart for years. Don't tell anyone when you get out!"
Xu Wanning suppressed the fear in her heart and said seriously:
"Aunt Wang, don't worry, we won't tell anyone!"
Wang Dahua grinned, turned around and left with the backpack and sickle on his back.
"Good boy, I'm going to go cut some grass for the pigs first. Don't go too far, there are wolves in the deep mountains!"
Lin Qiqi looked at Wang Dahua's back and asked curiously:
"Ningning, do you think there are really wolves in this mountain?"
Wen Jing rolled her eyes at her and sneered at her mercilessly;
"Lin Qiqi, are you stupid? There must be wolves in these deep mountains. Haven't you heard the villagers say that many people have gone into the mountains and never come out again?"
Xu Wanning still felt a little scared when she thought about the last time she met that group of wolves. She was glad that she had the Utopia Space, otherwise she might not be able to come back.
"You all should be careful. Han Jinghuai has encountered wolves in the mountains before. There should be a lot of wolves in the mountains."
Lin Qiqi shuddered when she heard that. A pack of wolves? Oh my god! It sounded so scary that she immediately gave up the idea of sneaking into the mountains. Her life was more important. If she ran into a pack of wolves, wouldn't she be eaten by them?
"Forget it, you guys go inside, I'd better stay at the foot of the mountain!"
Wenjing looked disgusted. This guy was such a disgrace to them, the educated youth. Was he really that scared?
"Coward, we're not going into the mountains, what could happen?"
Xu Wanning and Xu Wenjing smiled in tacit understanding and went into the mountains together.
Lin Qiqi kept shouting behind him:
"Hey, wait for me, I'll go with you."
Afterwards, the three of them finished cutting grass for the pigs together.
Xu Wanning pulled them into a bamboo forest and dug up spring bamboo shoots. Spring bamboo shoots were a rare delicacy at this time. In addition, there was no pollution in this era, and all the plants in the mountains were harmless.
She planned to dig more bamboo shoots and go back to make stir-fried bamboo shoots with bacon, braised bamboo shoots in oil, pickled bamboo shoots with preserved vegetables, and stew bone soup. Bamboo shoots are delicious, nutritious, and can be eaten in many ways.
Wenjing accepted her fate and worked hard to pick spring bamboo shoots. It was the first time she heard that bamboo could be eaten.
"Xu Wanning, can this thing be delicious?"
Lin Qiqi looked depressed. Is this thing really edible? Why do people in the village say it tastes bad?
"Ningning, I heard from the villagers that this thing tastes terrible. When there was no food in the past, the villagers only ate wild vegetables and tree bark, and would not eat these things!"
Xu Wanning raised the corners of her mouth. It was a pity that so many spring bamboo shoots went uneaten. It seemed that she should dig some more, give some to Aunt Wang, and send some to the team leader's house.
"You don't know this, right? This thing tastes delicious. I guarantee you'll want to eat it again after trying it once!"
"But these spring bamboo shoots can't be stir-fried directly. They need to be blanched before stir-frying. The villagers say they don't taste good because they're not blanched. The spring bamboo shoots are naturally astringent, but blanching them removes the astringency!"
Wen Jing looked as if she had suddenly realized something, but in reality, she didn't understand at all. Anyway, Xu Wanning was a good cook, so if she said it was delicious, it must be delicious.
"Oh, then I must try it and see how delicious it is!"
Lin Qiqi nodded obediently. Since it was so delicious, how could she be left out?
