"That's good." Old Madam Shen nodded with relief, "Then let's go collect firewood now..."
It wasn't long since I finished eating roast chicken and roast rabbit, and now I have roast wild boar to eat. This life doesn't feel like an escape at all.
Cheng Suihua smiled and said, "Let's find a flat stone. It will give the meat a different flavor when we grill it on it."
She had seen her husband grill meat like this before.
After the stones are heated, cut the meat into thin slices and put them on top. It will sizzle and smell very fragrant.
"Okay, okay, let's go find it right away." Cao Huixian nodded impatiently.
She had never eaten wild boar meat, especially freshly killed one.
After listening to her sister-in-law's description, she felt that it must be delicious.
"Then I'll go find some lemongrass to remove the fishy smell from the wild boar meat."
Ren Xiaoqing thought about it and mentioned it softly.
She has always been interested in herbs and plants, and basically she will never forget what she has seen.
She knows the functions of various plants very well.
She could smell a strong fishy odor before the wild boar was killed, and she guessed that the meat would also have a strong fishy smell after it was killed.
There are a lot of lemongrass in the mountains. It has a unique aroma and can effectively remove the fishy smell of meat.
Lemongrass can not only remove the fishy smell of meat, but also increase the freshness and deliciousness of the meat.
Chen Yong looked at the usually taciturn Ren Xiaoqing in surprise.
"Fourth sister-in-law is also researching plants?"
To be honest, although he is a poor loser, he really doesn't know many of the plants in the field.
No matter how poor a loser is, he is still a social animal in the city and has no land to farm.
By the way, even if there is land for farming at home, he may not go back to farm.
More than ten years ago, no one in the village had been farming, and large areas of good land were left barren.
Every year when I go back, that piece of land is either contracted to plant peach trees or to raise turtles.
Every year I go back, the crops in the fields are replaced.
Those people are just trying to cheat the government for subsidies, and few of them take good care of the crops in the fields.
"Hmm~" Ren Xiaoqing blushed slightly and nodded embarrassedly.
"I've read a few books on the subject and just happened to learn about lemongrass..."
"Sister-in-law, don't be so modest." Meng Yunfei smiled and stepped forward to put her arm around Ren Xiaoqing's shoulders.
"Every time I go to your yard, you're reading a book about flowers and plants. You're not just skimming through it."
"I see you're obsessed. There's no herb in this mountain that you don't know."
"Come on, I'll go with you to look for lemongrass. Maybe we can find some precious herbs."
"It would be great if we could dig up some ginseng, ganoderma lucidum, or Polygonum multiflorum..."
Ren Xiaoqing looked at Meng Yunfei with a blushing face.
“Where are there so many good things to find…”
"Hehe, that's what I said..." Meng Yunfei grinned.
"Let's go, I'll protect you with my sword..."
"good....."
Chen Yong looked at his fourth and fifth sisters-in-law in front of him, and they discussed their own affairs. Then they walked straight into the grove, pulling their lips together and smiling helplessly.
Mrs. Shen looked at the three daughters-in-law who ran to find Shitou, and quickly called Tan Qinghui,
"Huihui, come with me to collect firewood..."
"Okay~" Qin Qinghui nodded and followed behind Mrs. Shen.
In the blink of an eye, the group of women around Chen Yong left without a trace.
"Boss Shen..." Zhang Tiezhu, who had been hiding behind the women of the Shen family, suddenly appeared in front of Shen Yong.
He pulled the corner of his mouth and smiled at Shen Yonghan.
"I-I'm going to kill wild boars. That's what I'm best at."
Zhang Tiezhu patted his butt, stood up, and limped downstream into the stream.
The wild boars were dragged away by the palace guards, so he had to go and keep an eye on them.
Otherwise, when all the meat is divided up, what will he eat?
It was so hard to get so much wild boar meat, he had to have a good meal.
"Boss Shen, is there anything I can do for you?"
Sun Ren, who had been standing, gave Chen Yong a flattering smile.
There were enough people killing wild boars, so it seemed inappropriate for him to go over there again.
Chen Yong looked at Sun Ren, then glanced towards the grove.
"Come with me to look for wild fruits."
If you feel sick after eating too much meat, eat some sweet and sour wild fruits to cleanse your mouth.
Sun Ren's eyes lit up and he nodded repeatedly.
"Okay, okay, I can weave baskets..."
"I can weave a basket out of vines to hold wild fruits."
He weaves baskets very quickly.
It’s totally fine to weave a basket as you go.
Chen Yong looked at Sun Ren in surprise.
"Then weave a few more baskets."
Wow, there are quite a few talented people among this group of people.
He remembered that things like basket weaving were something that only old craftsmen knew how to do.
This was the first time he saw someone as young as Sun Ren weaving baskets.
"Okay, no problem." Sun Ren agreed immediately, "I will weave a basket for each of you ladies."
For a basket used by women, it must be woven delicately, small and beautiful.
It's fine as long as the fruit basket doesn't leak.
Shen Yong nodded, turned around and walked towards the grove.
His mother and his second, fourth, and fifth sisters-in-law were all in the grove, and he felt uneasy if he didn't go in to keep watch.
He happened to be looking for wild fruits while taking care of these women.
Sun Ren hurriedly trotted after Shen Yong. He was so excited that he had forgotten the blisters on his feet.
The calves that were originally so sore and weak that they couldn't be lifted were now walking very fast.
It turns out that once people get excited, they will forget all the physical discomforts.
Shen Yong entered the grove and flew directly to the waist of a tree.
Sun Ren stood under the tree, pulling a vine in his hand and quickly weaving a basket.
His eyes kept looking up at Shen Yong who was jumping on the tree.
He ran wherever Shen Yong jumped.
His hands did not stop moving at all. A vine quickly turned into a basket in his hand. He didn't even need to use his eyes to see.
He could even weave a basket with his eyes closed.
When he was a child, he followed his grandfather to weave baskets to sell, and he would doze off while weaving baskets.
Isn't this how the technique was developed?
"then!"
Shen Yong found some wild fruits and picked them. When he looked down, he saw that Sun Ren already had a woven basket in his hand.
He threw the fruit directly into the basket in Sun Ren's hand.
Before Sun Ren stretched out his hand, the fruit had already fallen into his basket.
After knowing that Shen Yong could throw it into the basket accurately, Sun Ren simply slung the basket over his arm and continued to busy himself with weaving the basket with both hands.
