Song Jinxiu thought of Xiaojuan who was far away, wondering if she still remembered her.
Song Jinxiu didn't know what to write. She had collected so many mountain products this time, so she might as well send some to her.
Chestnuts, pine nuts, potatoes, dried wild vegetables, mushrooms, fungus, pickles...
It was a mix of things, I just took whatever came to mind, and even left a few unpeeled chestnuts and pine cones.
City kids must be very curious about these things if they have never seen them before!
As for fruits, not only are they difficult to ship, but they are also easier to buy from her side than from my side.
By the way, I boasted to her about how fun it was here.
You can go out for a spring outing. The scenery is particularly beautiful, with mountains, water and fresh air.
They can also bake chicken and sweet potatoes. I asked her if she had ever tried them. They were so delicious.
In summer, going up the mountains and down the rivers, catching chickens and fishing is endless fun.
There are a lot of fish here and the water is very clear. As long as you have the skills, you can catch as many fish as you want.
Anyway, Song Jinxiu had never caught any fish with her bare hands. Every time she touched a fish, it turned into a dead fish before she could catch it.
So the kid gave me a nickname, "Fish See Die!"
Song Jinxiu would definitely not tell such a shameful thing.
Next, let’s talk about autumn, and there’s so much to say about it.
A variety of wild vegetables, fruits, and wild animals. The mountains are like your own back garden, ready for you to pick!
I just regret that I am not a strong man, that I don’t have more hands, and that I can’t move enough.
Of course, there is no need to mention the snakes, insects, rats and ants. Song Jinxiu was scared to tears several times. It’s better not to tell them about it and scare the children!
Winter is coming next. What fun things are there to do in winter?
After much thought, Song Jinxiu decided that the most fun thing in winter was staying in bed.
Let’s talk about roasting sweet potatoes, frying chestnuts, visiting relatives and friends during the Chinese New Year and receiving red envelopes!
Although I only received one red envelope!
All in all, it would take up two full pages to write it down, and I will fly away with the package!
What she didn't know was that because of this letter, real intellectuals were attracted from the big city!
That afternoon, Song Jinxiu was drying things in the yard. As she was rummaging through the things, she heard someone knocking on the door.
The gate was not closed. Song Jinxiu walked over and saw that it was Dalinzi, holding a rabbit in his hand.
"I caught a rabbit and will give you a snack." Dalinzi said, shaking the dead rabbit in his hand.
"No, no, just keep it for yourself!" Song Jinxiu quickly refused.
Meat is so precious these days. How can you ask for food from someone you are not related to?
"It's okay, I can always catch them! This one is for you!" Dalinzi stuffed the rabbit into Song Jinxiu's hands.
"No, I..." Before Song Jinxiu could finish her words, Dalinzi turned and left.
"You can eat it! I can often catch pheasants and rabbits in the mountains, so I have no shortage of meat!" Dalinzi was afraid that Song Jinxiu would continue to refuse, so he interrupted her, waved his hand and left!
In Dalinzi's opinion, now that the grain has arrived, there is no need to worry about food, but Song Jinxiu only buys a little meat every few days. She must be starving.
"No, don't go! I, I don't know how to kill rabbits!" Dalinzi ran so fast that Song Jinxiu didn't even have time to reach out her Erkang hand!
I shook the rabbit in my hand. It’s a pity that it died, otherwise I could have raised it!
Then he turned his gaze to Liu Ankang who was reading a book.
Liu Ankang felt her burning gaze and looked at Song Jinxiu in confusion.
Song Jinxiu shook the rabbit and asked, "Will you kill it?"
Liu Ankang looked at her, then at the rabbit. He had to, otherwise how could he eat it with the fur?
After all, I grew up watching the uncles and aunts in the village kill all kinds of wild game. I have full marks in theory, but as for the practice, this is my first time!
Song Jinxiu watched him skillfully take the rabbit with the knife, and now she didn't say anything about the child not needing to use the knife.
I'm eight years old now, so I can help out a bit at home. Since I have rabbit meat, let's make spicy rabbit stew with potatoes tonight!
Otherwise, one rabbit alone wouldn’t be enough to eat!
Just stir-fry some vegetables and dinner is done!
After the rabbit meat was stewed, Song Jinxiu scooped out a bowl and put it in a basket, and asked Liu Ankang to send it to Dalinzi.
If you meet someone, just say that Dalinzi brought it for processing, and the processing fee is to keep half of the meat.
In this way, the gossipers in the village would at most say that Song Jinxiu was cheating people, but would not say anything about the two of them.
However, unexpectedly, there was a follow-up to this incident. The next day, a big boy stood at the door embarrassedly.
"Is there something wrong?" Song Jinxiu asked doubtfully, she didn't even know the other person!
I vaguely remember that we were in the same group.
"Well, I, I, I want you to help me braise it." The older boy embarrassedly pulled out a naked chicken from behind him!
"I know the rules. You can do whatever you want, but keep half of the meat! I, I'll come and get it later, no need for An An to deliver it. I can eat spicy food." After saying that, he left embarrassedly.
Song Jinxiu stood at the door a little confused. Why don’t I understand this rule?
"What did you say yesterday?" Song Jinxiu told Liu Ankang about the incident.
Liu Ankang shook his head. "I didn't meet anyone yesterday."
"So, it's Dalinzi?"
"Dalinzi."
The two said in unison.
Here's the thing.
Yesterday, Liu Ankang gave Dalinzi a bowl of rabbit meat and left. Facing Liu Ankang's silent face, Dalinzi couldn't refuse!
Dalinzi, who had already eaten, couldn't help but smell the overbearing fragrance and felt hungry again.
He started eating with a big steamed bun, and soon attracted a group of wolves.
Everyone scrambled for his big steamed buns, ate his rabbit meat, and pushed him away.
What a mistake! Next time I should lock the door before eating. Dalinzi dusted himself off and thankfully didn't savor the food too slowly.
There is only a little left anyway, so let them grab it.
After everyone finished eating, they started asking about the origin of the meat. In fact, everyone knew the answer without asking.
I just wanted to make fun of Dalinzi.
Dalinzi couldn't say anything careless, for fear of causing trouble for Song Jinxiu.
Just tell them to bring the meat over and cook it however they want, and I’ll keep half of the meat as payment!
Remember to clean up the materials yourself, and only help once a day!
I originally wanted to avoid causing trouble for Song Jinxiu, but who knew that I would bring trouble to her!
Now that they have it, what else can we do? Just do it!
It was braised in red sauce, and potatoes were added as usual, since potatoes were the most abundant this year. In addition, a lot of mushrooms were added.
Song Jinxiu felt that these side dishes, after absorbing the soup, tasted even better than chicken!
Now that the rules are set, let’s keep half!
Today’s chicken is bigger than the rabbit, so the other person can take away a big bowl after it’s cooked!
It seemed as if the timing was perfect. Not long after Song Jinxiu finished it, the other party came to take it away!
So, Song Jinxiu's family will have meat to eat tonight! This seems pretty good!
Song Jinxiu thought to herself as she ate potatoes happily.
After that, everyone seemed to have made an appointment. Every few days, different people would come with ingredients and ask Song Jinxiu to help cook.
Chicken, duck, rabbit, meat, fish. We couldn't split the fish in half, so the other person took two!
Song Jinxiu can also eat all kinds of meat every now and then!
