Chapter 174 Encountering a Wild Boar (I)
"Xiaoxiao, did you cook chestnuts when you got home yesterday? We cooked all the scratched chestnuts yesterday, and then our family had them for dinner. They were really delicious and very filling. We felt full without eating much, which is much better than drinking porridge.
But there is one downside, which is that you will fart constantly after eating chestnuts.”
After hearing what her second sister said, Lu Xiaoxiao's face froze, as if eating too many chestnuts would cause her to fart. She also ate a lot of chestnuts yesterday, but didn't seem to fart. She just didn't know if she farted when she fell asleep.
Zhang Xu slept in the main room yesterday. If she farted while sleeping last night, would Zhang Xu hear it or not?
"Second sister, I also cooked chestnuts yesterday, but I didn't boil them in water like your family does. Instead, I made chestnut rice. It tastes super delicious and is very filling. You can try it when you go home today."
"Okay, I'll make it when I get home tonight and let my mom do it. In the past, my mom would definitely not be willing to cook rice, but this autumn harvest, my sister and I picked more than ten kilograms of rice ears, plus we picked so many chestnuts in the past two days, so my mom will definitely agree."
"Well, but remember to boil the chestnuts in a pot for five minutes before peeling them, so that the skin inside will be easy to peel."
"I understand, but Xiaoxiao, you must remember to dry the chestnuts you picked up in the sun, otherwise they will go bad easily."
After hearing what her second sister said, Lu Xiaoxiao didn't use the method she suggested to preserve the chestnuts. Instead, she put the chestnuts into the space for preservation. However, she still replied, "I understand. But how do you plan to eat the chestnuts after drying them?"
"Of course, put it in when cooking rice porridge or wild vegetable soup. This is how we always cook it at home."
"Then I suggest you peel the skin using the method I told you when you put it in the sun. This way it will be easier to eat later."
"Oh, why didn't I think of that? How stupid of me."
On the way up the mountain, Lu Xiaoxiao felt that time passed very quickly because she was chatting with her second sister. Soon they arrived under the chestnut tree.
"Second sister, we're at the chestnut tree now. You and your sister should stay away like you did yesterday. Wait until I shake the chestnuts off the tree, then come over and pick them up."
After hearing this, the second sister immediately took her two younger sisters away from the chestnut tree. Ever since they witnessed the power of Xiaoxiao's kick yesterday, they didn't want to be hit by the chestnuts with thorny shells.
Seeing that her second sister and the others were already far away from the chestnut tree, Lu Xiaoxiao put the backpack on her head as she did yesterday, and then kicked the tree with her foot, and the chestnuts on the tree kept falling down.
Since a lot of chestnuts fell from the tree yesterday, not as many fell today as yesterday. I took the backpack off my head when the chestnuts on the tree stopped falling.
Lu Xiaoxiao looked up at the chestnut tree and saw that there were still some chestnuts on it that had not fallen off, so she put the backpack on her head again and kicked the chestnut tree three times in a row.
When the chestnuts stopped falling, Lu Xiaoxiao took the backpack off her head again. She saw that only a few scattered chestnuts had not fallen from the tree, so she told her second sister that they could come and pick them up.
This time, Lu Xiaoxiao and her second sister and three sisters took almost two hours to pick all the chestnuts. They looked at the baskets, which contained more chestnuts than yesterday, and they all smiled happily after looking at each other.
When Lu Xiaoxiao was about to pick up the backpack and go down the mountain, she saw the grass not far away move, so she climbed up a tree and looked towards the grass.
Lu Xiaoxiao gasped when she saw something in the bushes. She immediately asked her second sister and her younger sister to climb the tree quickly.
