Chapter 118 Spicy Cabbage

Jiang Cuihua came back to her senses, shook her head and said, "Forget it today, I have to go back and take a look."

Having dug up so many wild yams at home, Jiang Cuihua wanted to go home and take a look.

Liu Yinyin asked her to take half a basket of wild kiwis back as snacks for her nephews and nieces, as she couldn't eat much by herself.

The wild yam dug in the morning weighed about three or four pounds. Liu Yinyin washed a wild yam, chopped it up and cooked it into porridge.

There were also some leftover fried eggs with chili peppers and garlic-fried millet vegetables from lunch, and I just happened to have two corn tortillas left.

Since Jiang Cuihua was not at home for dinner, Liu Yinyin did not cook any other dishes.

I just cooked a pot of yam and lean meat porridge.

The wild yam has a tender texture, melts in your mouth, and has a light sweetness.

Liu Yinyin likes to eat very much.

Gu Yanyan also liked it very much. After eating a bowl of yam and lean meat porridge, he looked at Liu Yinyin eagerly: "Ah ah..."

He still wants to eat.

It was time to go to bed, and Liu Yinyin didn't dare to give him any more food because she was afraid that he would have food stagnation.

After a tiring day, Liu Yinyin took a shower and fell asleep on the bed.

The next day, after breakfast, Liu Yinyin picked a few cabbages in the yard. She wanted to make kimchi.

From then on, she would have porridge in the morning, occasionally with some kimchi, so that she could take a break from cooking.

There is no way. Cooking every day sometimes makes me feel bored.

Jiang Cuihua got up in the morning, went back to Liu's house, had breakfast, and came back here again.

Liu Yinyin told her to just eat at home so she wouldn't have to run around.

But Jiang Cuihua did not agree: "There is no reason to eat at the daughter's house."

She has a husband and several sons, so it is impossible for her to have a meal at the lady's house.

Jiang Cuihua knew that the daughter's family was well-off and would not be short of food for her.

But... they still have to pay attention, otherwise the villagers will frame them.

The daughter-in-law still has her husband's family, so she can't let anyone gossip about her.

"Why are you making pickled vegetables? Don't you dislike this?" Jiang Cuihua muttered when she saw her daughter pickling cabbage.

Last year, Liu Yinyin didn’t make salted dishes because she said she didn’t like them.

Liu Yinyin said: "I suddenly want to eat."

In fact, the spicy cabbage she wanted to make was not the same as the salted vegetable that Jiang Cuihua mentioned, but... the difference was not that big.

"I'll help you." said Jiang Cuihua, who is an expert at making pickled dishes.

It’s also in the past two years that I got a daughter-in-law, and otherwise she would be the one doing all the housework inside and outside the house.

For Liu Yinyin, making kimchi is very easy.

Tear the cabbage, add salt to each layer, marinate until it becomes soft, wash and squeeze out the water, then spread the prepared chili sauce on it and marinate.

Making chili sauce is quite complicated. Liu Yinyin found it troublesome and bought a can of chili sauce directly from the system, which made it easier.

Jiang Cuihua dipped her finger in the chili sauce and tasted it: "Hey, how did you season the chili? It smells really good."

This chili sauce tastes spicy and refreshing, with a hint of sweetness. It tastes better than any of her cooking. Why bother making kimchi? Just dip it in the chili sauce and eat it with rice.

Liu Yinyin pondered, "Just roast and chop the peppers, add salt, ginger, garlic, glutinous rice flour, sugar, apple puree and so on."

Jiang Cuihua immediately gave up the idea of ​​making chili sauce after hearing this, and muttered: "Why is it so hard to make chili sauce, with so many good things in it?"

The young lady didn't mind the trouble. In the countryside, they just had to sprinkle some salt on the vegetables to make pickled dishes.

Liu Yinyin smiled and said, "I'll make another can for you and dad later."

When the kimchi is ready, put it in a jar and store it. When you want to eat it, just take out a few pieces.

The brothers of the Liu family went to the mountains to dig wild yams early this morning.

It might take more than one morning to dig all the wood, so the brothers took some dry food with them to the mountain so that they wouldn’t have to rush back for lunch.

In the afternoon, Liu Yinyin had just finished class when she saw Jiang Cuihua coming back holding Gu Yanyan.

She just went home to see if her sons had come back.

Unexpectedly, the man came back with injuries!

Seeing her angry look, Liu Yinyin asked in confusion, "Mom, what's wrong with you?"

"Don't mention it." Jiang Cuihua's teeth were almost broken. "Liu Ershuan, that bastard, actually brought people and secretly followed your brothers to the mountain."

Liu Yinyin was shocked and asked, "Are Big Brother and the others okay?"

When she saw Liu Ershuan yesterday, she felt that this guy would not give up easily.

Jiang Cuihua shook her head and said, "We had a fight, but they are just superficial injuries, nothing serious."

We are all from the same village. We usually meet each other every day, so the actions will not be too excessive.

Liu Yinyin was relieved: "It's good that he's okay."

Jiang Cuihua sighed: "There is no yam left on the mountain. Liu Ershuan and his gang have snatched most of it. What a bunch of people! If they want to eat yam, why don't they go to the mountain to find it themselves? Instead, they do such a wicked thing."

It was because Liu Ershuan brought so many people, otherwise they would not have been able to snatch the wild yams.

Liu Yinyin: “…”

Things on the mountain have no owner, and there is nothing we can do when encountering something like this. We can say that they are immoral, but we cannot say that they broke the law.

Jiang Cuihua also understood this, so she was very angry: "Fortunately, your eldest brother and his friends haven't had time to pick wild kiwis yet, and Liu Ershuan and his gang don't know about this yet."

Otherwise, all the wild kiwis would be picked by them.

There is famine in the village now, and the villagers' eyes light up when they see food.

Liu Yinyin pondered: "Why don't we go to the mountain again tomorrow? The kiwis are ripe. If we don't pick them quickly, they will go bad."

Jiang Cuihua said, "I will go to the mountain to pick kiwis tomorrow morning."

Wild kiwis are also good things. My grandchildren all like to eat them, so we can’t waste them.

Liu Yinyin: "I'll go there tomorrow morning, too."

There is nothing to do at home tomorrow morning. As for Gu Yanyan, you can ask Mrs. Liu to take care of her.

A total of more than 250 kilograms of wild yam were dug.

Jiang Cuihua wanted to give half to Liu Yinyin, but Liu Yinyin refused and only asked for 50 kilograms.

There are few people in my family and we can't eat that much. Fifty kilograms of yam is more than enough.

Jiang Cuihua originally planned to go to the mountains to pick wild kiwis with Liu Yinyin and her third son Liu Mingyuan.

But unexpectedly...the next day, many people in the village went into the mountains!

In the past, few people dared to come to this mountain.

But, yesterday, when they learned that someone had dug up something good in the mountains, the villagers could no longer contain their excitement and went into the mountains one by one to dig up wild vegetables, pick mushrooms and pick wild fruits.

Jiang Cuihua was stunned: "...What do you think, should we go into the mountains with them?"

On ordinary days, not many people come to this mountain, so there must be a lot of wild vegetables and fruits in the mountain.

Jiang Cuihua looked quite moved.

It is safer to go to the mountains in groups.

Liu Yinyin said: "Let's pick the wild kiwis first."
