Chapter 84 Grilled Fish, Spicy Crayfish
Xiao Wu and the other three were ultimately unable to stop Su Wanyan, and the little princess rolled up her skirt and went into the river.
However, Su Wanyan did not run around. She just stood on the river bank, with the water only reaching her ankles.
Su Wanyan was not going to go down to the river to swim or catch fish and shrimps. She had the space to help her, so she put her hand into the water and pretended to do so.
The guards were grilling fish downstream of the river, using their long swords as makeshift fishing tools. They caught a fish with each sword, and they had a good harvest.
Su Wanyan was not willing to be outdone. Soon, she caught a black fish weighing three or four pounds in the water plants on the river bank.
When Rong Mama and Shaoyao saw that the young lady had really caught the fish, they were even more excited than her. They hurriedly caught the big black fish and put it into the prepared bamboo basket.
When Xiaowu saw it, he was also quite surprised and wanted to try it out. Su Wanyan invited Xiaowu to go down with her, saying that there must be more fish in the grass.
Finally, because Rong Mama was old and her legs were not flexible, she was responsible for loading the fish on the shore, while Xiaowu and Shaoyao all went into the river.
Because Su Wanyan was so lucky that she could find a lot of fish and shrimps just by searching through the few water plants on the river bank.
People in ancient times did not eat lobsters. When Su Wanyan first started catching lobsters, Xiaowu and the other three said that they were inedible. Su Wanyan didn't care. She decided to wait and cook them to see if they would eat them.
Seeing this, the families of Liu Hongcai and Shen Xinhou also wanted to come over and fish together. They had been away for almost half a month and had had enough of eating dry buns and drinking cold water.
This river does not belong to Su Wanyan. Others also want to come here to find food, and Su Wanyan cannot stop them. Anyway, what the three of them and the guards downstream caught is enough for so many people to eat for a day or two.
"Let's go, let's go back and grill some fish." The rest time was only half an hour. Su Wanyan didn't want to waste time, so she took her people away very decisively.
Only then did the Liu Hongcai and Shen Xinhou families dare to go over and catch some fish. Of course, it was definitely not the masters who went into the river. All the servants, regardless of gender, rolled up their trousers and went into the river.
There were quite a lot of fish and shrimps in the river. Although quite a few had been caught by Su Wanyan and the guards before, they still caught them all. It wasn't enough for everyone to get a fish, but it was definitely enough for them to improve their meals.
This lunch was the best meal they had on their way to exile. It consisted of grilled fish, stewed fish soup, and seasonings made from wild vegetables and fruits picked from the roadside. Both families were very satisfied with the meal.
Su Wanyan said she wanted to show everyone her skills in grilling fish on an iron plate, but there was no suitable iron plate. Finally, Su Wanyan ordered someone to find a flat stone and grill the fish on it.
The spicy crayfish was made with lobster. There was no wild garlic nearby, and she didn't want to just take out the garlic cloves from the space. In the end, she made the spicy crayfish instead of chili peppers. She used spicy Chinese medicine instead. Anyway, there were plenty of Chinese medicines she took from the Imperial Hospital.
"Wow! Miss, this crayfish is so delicious!" Shaoyao couldn't eat spicy food, but she still ate a crayfish one at a time, her eyes shining.
"Hehe! That's right! Don't you see what kind of person your young lady is? Could my words be false?" Su Wanyan ate lobsters very quickly. While others ate one, she finished three. The lobster shells in front of her could form a small mountain.
There aren't so many rules and regulations when eating out. Su Wanyan, Xiao Wu and the other two sat together to eat.
