Chapter 412 Ground Vegetables



Mu Yunxi and Wang Fang looked at the ground vegetables on the grass, and their brows relaxed.

This ground lettuce is also a kind of fungus.

On the grass after rain, there are often large patches of weeds growing.

This ground vegetable is very rich in nutrients and has outstanding health effects.

It is said that the protein and calcium contained in it are many times stronger than those of ordinary wild vegetables.

Mu Yunxi had eaten this thing twice in her previous life.

However, due to the serious industrial pollution at that time,

This ground vegetable only grows on moist and unpolluted grass or on mossy stones.

Therefore, if you want to eat this thing, it depends entirely on luck.

Wang Fang looked at the ground vegetables on the ground and said with a smile,

"Xixi, let's pick some ground vegetables and take them back. I know how to cook them. They're delicious."

Hearing this, Mu Yunxi smiled and turned her head to look at Wang Fang, with a hint of curiosity in her eyes.

"Oh? Isn't ground lettuce usually used in soups or stir-fries?"

The ones she had eaten before were all used to make soup.

Although the taste is average, it is fresh and has high nutritional value.

Wang Fang smiled mysteriously, and did not answer Mu Yunxi's words, but changed the subject.

"Do you know why people in our village don't like to eat this stuff?"

Mu Yunxi raised her eyebrows, thought for a few seconds, and said uncertainly,

"Because this ground vegetable is difficult to clean?"

Wang Fang smiled mysteriously and said slowly,

: "That's the reason, but the main reason is... not this."

Mu Yunxi's brows furrowed slightly for a moment, but soon returned to normal, and she tried to speak again.

: "Because it tastes so-so?"

As soon as Mu Yunxi finished speaking, Wang Fang suddenly burst into laughter.

After laughing for a long time, Wang Fang managed to hold back her laughter and watched Mu Yunxi tell the story.

"Hey, I went mushroom picking with the aunties from the village a while ago. I saw them see some ground mushrooms on the grass, but no one picked them up. Some even walked right over them. So I asked them out of curiosity."

When Wang Fang said this, she couldn't help but smile again.

She pursed her lips, restrained her facial expression to avoid bursting out laughing, and then continued,

: "Guess what the aunts said...?"

Mu Yunxi: "..."

Guess whether I guess or not!

Fortunately, Wang Fang did not continue to keep the secret and said it directly.

"The aunts said: These ground vegetables taste like children's snot. They are unpalatable and hard to wash off. They are sticky in the mouth. Picking them up is a waste of firewood."

When Wang Fang said this, she covered her mouth and laughed.

: "Hahahaha, I tell you, that's because they don't know how to eat."

"The year I first came to the countryside, because the vegetables in the private plots had not yet been planted, I followed the village children to the mountains to dig wild vegetables. The children told me that this ground vegetable was edible... but it was not very tasty..."

"But because it was already autumn, the wild vegetables in the mountains were only a few crops left. I thought that constantly exchanging vegetables with the villagers for food wouldn't be a big deal, as it would cost a lot of money. So I simply picked up some more ground vegetables, thinking of washing them, drying them, and saving them for later."

"After all, it's something edible. Even if it's not very delicious, as long as it can last for a while, it's still good. At least it can save a little money."

"I didn't expect it to be a blessing in disguise. After drying and then soaking the ground cabbage again, it doesn't have the sticky texture it had when it was fresh. On the contrary, it has a very refreshing taste, tender and chewy. It is delicious in soup or cold dishes."

Wang Fang thought about it and then added,

: "I don't know how much more delicious it is than fresh ones!"

Mu Yunxi was really interested now!

Although she thinks fresh ground vegetables are delicious!

But now after hearing what Wang Fang said...

She was even more interested in the dried ground vegetables!

Originally, she also wanted to pick some ground vegetables to make some soup and try something fresh!

But she has changed her mind now.

She looked at Wang Fang and said with a smile,

"Then let's pick up all the vegetables in this patch?"

Wang Fang said as if it was a matter of course, "Of course! If we don't pick it up, it will be wasted if it stays here!"
