Chapter 140 Everyone is calling for
his death Noodles made of pure vegetables, the only meaty ingredient is mushroom sauce.
It’s really fresh and really spicy.
Qin Jiu asked for a little bit, and Yi Chichi scooped a full spoonful for himself and put it in the bowl.
The noodles, which were originally white and exuded the fragrance of grains, instantly turned red.
The raccoon, who was smelling the food with great interest, suddenly raised his head and licked his lips after Yi Chichi mixed the mushroom sauce.
He stared at the aunt and nephew again, and perhaps because he was dissatisfied with their poor diet, he jumped off the stool and ran silently to the firewood pile behind the left wall of the courtyard to tinker with it.
After a few seconds, Yi Chichi saw it take out a big vole and run towards him.
"Meow!"
The raccoon came up and placed the giant field mouse at her feet and called out.
The aunt and nephew lowered their heads and looked at the fat field mouse and fell into silence.
After a while, Qin Jiu looked at Yi Chichi, and said hesitantly, "Aunt, does Dali want us to eat mice?"
"yes!"
Yi Chichi nodded, "Also, this is not a mouse, it's a vole."
"Aren't they all rats?"
The child looked confused, and Yi Chichi explained, "They are different species. Voles belong to the hamster family. They feed on crops and like to store food."
"Mice belong to the family Rodentia, they are full of germs, they are not as lovable as voles, and everyone hates them."
Voles live in the wild, relying on their labor and food storage to feed themselves and their families.
The mouse stayed at home, sitting back and enjoying the fruits of his labor, stealing food to feed himself and his family.
They also pick the good food and are not willing to eat the bad ones.
During years of famine, digging a vole hole could yield a lot of food to save lives.
There was nothing in the rat's nest except for the husks of food that caused trouble.
Generally speaking, voles are clean and smart mice.
Country people are more favorable toward voles than mice.
The raccoon's favorability towards the field mouse is off the charts.
Catch the field mice that cause harm.
It also catches mice, but not as frequently as voles.
Uncle Yaozi said that it was after he had eaten the field mice that Dali had hunted several times, but never ate the mice that he had hunted, that Dali began to bring field mice home.
And now, the treatment of sharing the field mouse with the big raccoon fell on Yi Chichi and Qin Jiu.
“Meow…”
Seeing that she was staring at the vole without moving, the raccoon put its paws on the soles of her feet and raised its head to call out to her, as if asking her why she didn't eat.
"Jiu, do you eat field mice?"
Qin Jiu's eyes suddenly widened, and he waved his hands hurriedly, "No, I want to eat noodles."
His expression was full of resistance.
Coincidentally, Yi Chichi also has no interest in eating voles.
She was really not worthy of enjoying the delicious food shared by the furry kid.
so--
"Tanuki, can you eat it by yourself?"
She talked to the raccoon in a nice and gentle voice, but the raccoon naturally didn't understand, and no one knew what was in its little head. It moved its paws towards her feet and meowed non-stop.
Yi Chichi had no idea what to do with it and could only accept the vole.
Now the raccoon was satisfied and stopped barking, but it turned around and jumped over the wall and left.
There was no sign of the cat for one day and two nights.
When she came back again, Yi Chichi was sitting on a small stool, twisting medicine with grunts and muttering. She heard a rustling sound behind her, but she didn't pay much attention to it, thinking it was a sparrow.
There are a lot of sparrows in the backyard, and they make some noise from time to time, but you'll get used to it.
A few minutes later, the big raccoon appeared quietly beside her, rubbing against her and meowing busily.
The voice was quite excited.
"Where have you been?"
Yi Chichi looked down and saw that it was it. He immediately put down the work in his hands and hugged the raccoon to check it out. Good, it was not injured.
“Meow meow…”
The big raccoon struggled and cried out loudly.
Yi Chichi put it on the ground. It turned around and walked a few steps towards the back door, then turned back and meowed at her. It was obvious that it meant for her to follow.
“Here I come.”
She got up and followed him, and when she reached the back door, she was stunned.
A row of voles, from small to large, are neatly arranged, which is very friendly to people with obsessive-compulsive disorder.
I counted them, wow, 13 voles.
"Your record is pretty good."
She boasted that this was a complete clean-out of the entire vole family.
that is--
"Raccoon, if you rob the field mouse family, the food in their home will be wasted. Can you take me to their home to rob the food?"
The raccoon didn't understand, so it pushed the vole with its paw and meowed at her to eat.
Yi Chichi's mouth twitched and he was about to speak when Wang Nan came.
"Chichi, Xiaocao is getting married."
"Know."
Yi Chichi replied, and Wang Nan, who hadn't seen anyone, came over following the sound of the voice, "Should we give her a gift for her wedding..."
Looking at the field mice on the ground, she was shocked and asked, "Where did so many field mice come from?"
"You knew it was a vole?"
Yi Chichi was even more shocked than she was, so Wang Nan rolled her eyes and said, "Don't make me look like an idiot. We've both dug out vole holes before, so it's no wonder we don't recognize each other."
As she spoke, she bent over and stretched out one hand to grab the vole.
“Bang!”
The big raccoon slapped her with its claws quickly, fiercely and accurately, and breathed at her angrily.
Wang Nan: "...Okay, okay, I won't watch it anymore."
But these voles are really fat.
It looks delicious.
Thinking of the taste of the field mouse she had eaten before, she suddenly felt her mouth water. "Why didn't Dali hide the field mouse and put it outside the door? To show off?"
Yi Chichi had a bitter face, "Maybe they were worried that I would starve to death, or they thought I was not good at hunting so they brought the prey back to feed me."
"Then it's good for you."
Who doesn’t love a cat like this?
At this moment, Wang Nan finally understood why Uncle Yaozi protected the big raccoon as if he were protecting his own eye.
"Will you eat?"
She looked playful.
Yi Chichi sighed, "I am not lucky enough to enjoy it."
She really doesn't know how to deal with voles, and she has no interest in eating rodents.
So, under the gaze of the raccoon's dilated pupils, she skillfully cleaned up the vole and gave it the biggest one.
"Eat it, it's all yours, I don't want it."
She didn't know whether she understood it or not, but when the raccoon saw the big field mouse in front of it, it quickly picked up the field mouse and went to eat it aside.
Yi Chichi put the small rattan stick behind the firewood pile and said, "Next time you want to eat it, take it from here."
The raccoon was eating so loudly that he had no time to pay attention to her.
Yi Chichi called Wang Nan to the front and talked to her about Liu Xiaocao.
"How did you discuss this?"
"We haven't had time to discuss it yet. I only found out about Xiaocao's marriage when I heard Aunt Lanhua and the others talking about it while I was working in the fields."
"Then let me know after you've discussed it, and I'll go with the flow."
"That's fine."
She nodded. "Is there any water? Give me some. I'm dying of thirst."
Yi Chichi poured her a glass of cool mint water.
She took the bottle and drank most of it, then breathed a sigh of relief and said, "It's so comfortable. This water tastes good."
"What do you put in there?"
"Mint."
Don’t know.
"Anything else?"
"have."
Yi Chichi led her to the edge of the medicinal field, pointed at the mints along the edge of the field and said, "Here are all. You can pick them yourself."
“How much mint should I put in a pot of water?”
"It depends on whether you want it stronger or weaker."
