Chapter 254 Snail



Thinking of this, Lin Yunchu smiled, raised his head, and didn't want to refuse his cousin's kindness, and nodded at her with a smile.

"I like it. Where did you find it, cousin? It's covered with thorns. Don't pick it next time."

Although this thing tastes sour and sweet and is a great snack, it is covered with thorns and it would be bad if you accidentally get pricked by it.

Hearing Lin Yunchu's words, Lin Cuizhi became even happier. These thorns were nothing, and she was very careful, so picking these wild fruits was no problem at all. The most important thing was that Lin Yunchu liked to eat them.

Then he quickly responded to Lin Yunchu, "It's right by the creek. My brother and I went fishing in the river, and when we came back, we glanced at the bushes and saw it."

Lin Cuizhi recalled happily, and she took a quick glance, only to see a few specks of red in the green grass, glowing in the sunlight.

She didn't even bother to catch the fish, and quickly squatted down to look for the wild fruit. Fortunately, she found a lot of it, a big handful, enough for Lin Yunchu to eat.

Lin Yunchu listened to Lin Cuizhi's excited expression, raised the corners of his mouth slightly, and listened to her quietly.

"Oh, and there's fish. My brother and I went to the river today and caught a lot of small fish. The fried fish you made last time was delicious. Why don't you make it again today?"

Lin Changping and I caught a lot of small fish in the river today. Lin Cuizhi was a little craving for the fried fish that Lin Yunchu had made before, so she brought them to the Lin family together with the wild fruit.

Upon hearing what Lin Cuizhi said, Lin Yunchu was slightly stunned. He didn't expect that the family liked the fried fish made with the small fish caught by Lin Changan last time, so he sent some to his uncle's house.

I didn’t expect that my cousin also likes it. It’s not difficult to make. I have nothing to do today, so I’ll make the fried fish that Lin Cuizhi wants to eat.

With a smile in his eyes, Lin Yunchu nodded at Lin Cuizhi, glanced at the bucket that had just been placed in the yard, squatted down, and looked into the bucket.

Today, Lin Cuizhi brought some small fish the size of a palm. I guess there are quite a few of them, but...

Lin Yunchu saw that there seemed to be something at the bottom of the bucket, but there were too many fish for her to see clearly, so she reached into the bucket and scooped up the things at the bottom of the bucket.

When Lin Yunchu touched the object underneath, he was slightly startled. This was...

Lin Yunchu was a little surprised, then came to his senses, fished out the thing he touched from the bottom of the bucket and took a look at it in his hand. It was really a snail.

I saw that I had picked up a handful of small things in my hand, like small stones, with a small button on the top. Aren’t these snails?

"Cousin, where did you find this?"

This is a good thing. I went to the river many times last year, but I never saw any snails.

Lin Yunchu scooped up a handful from the bottom of the water. It looked like a lot, and he could probably cook a bowl of it, enough for everyone to have a meal.

Hearing that Lin Yunchu was interested in what she brought back, Lin Cuizhi was even more delighted and quickly explained, "It's in the small river east of the village. I saw it while fishing today. I thought it was interesting, so I picked up a lot and brought it back. My brother even praised me."

Thinking back to what Lin Changping had just said about picking up these things randomly, they were heavy, ugly, and didn't look like they were edible. It would have been nice to catch a few more fish with this time.

Lin Cuizhi pouted indignantly, looking unconvinced. She just wanted to bring the fish back to show Lin Yunchu because she thought it was a bit novel. If she wanted to eat fish, she could go to the river and catch some tomorrow.

But now, seeing Lin Yunchu staring at the snail in his hand with a trance-like look on his face, is it really impossible to have this thing?

She just looked at it curiously. If she really couldn't pick it up, she would just take it outside and throw it into the river.

Lin Cuizhi was a little discouraged. She thought that the thing she found was so special, but she didn't expect that she really couldn't have it.

Lin Yunchu was a little overjoyed. He was stunned for a long time before he came to his senses and asked Lin Cuizhi, "The small river east of the village? Is there a lot of water?"

Upon hearing Lin Yunchu's words, Lin Cuizhi was slightly stunned, but she still agreed with her: "Yes, there are patches of them under the creek, there are a lot of them."

But why did Lin Yunchu ask this? Could it be of any use?

"Yun Chu, why are you asking this? I shouldn't have picked this up."

Lin Cuizhi was not sure why Lin Yunchu asked this. When she picked them up, she was just curious, so she just picked up some at random.

"No, this is actually edible, and it tastes really good."

Although this snail does not have much meat, it has a unique taste and is full of flavor. It is a rare dish to go with wine.

On weekdays, when Lin's father and Lin Qingshan have some free time, they will also have a drink. If they use this snail to make a dish to go with the wine, I think they will definitely like it.

And even if it is not used as a side dish, it is also a good snack to entertain. Lin Yunchu thought about it, as if he had already eaten snails, and couldn't help swallowing his saliva.

"Is it really edible? But I don't see any meat here."

Although Lin Cuizhi was still a little surprised after hearing Lin Yunchu say this, could it be that Lin Yunchu wanted to comfort her? It didn't look like it was edible at all.

Lin Yunchu tilted his head slightly, handed the snail in his hand to Lin Cuizhi, and explained softly, "This thing is called a snail. It has a shell on the outside and meat on the inside. Although there is not much meat, it tastes very good."

As Lin Yunchu spoke, he had already made up his mind to cook the snails in the evening and let them all taste them. After eating them, they would know how they tasted.

"I'll cook these small fish and snails in the evening and ask my uncle and the others to come over for dinner."

Lin Yunchu thought that these days they were not only busy with work in the workshop, but also with work in the fields, and everyone hadn't eaten together for a long time.

It just so happened that Lin Cuizhi sent these fish and snails today. They could have dinner together and let them all taste the snails.

Upon hearing Lin Yunchu's words, Lin Cuizhi nodded hurriedly. The two families were originally close and often ate together before.

It's just that I've been very busy these days. Now my family has joined the Lin family in buying a lot of sandy land to grow potatoes. Everyone in my family is busy, and we haven't gotten together for a long time. Today happens to be a free day, so let's have dinner together in the evening as Yun Chu said.

"Okay, I'll go back and tell my parents later, and then I'll be back to help you. Just leave any work to me."

We caught a lot of fish today, which Lin Yunchu couldn't catch by himself, Lin Cuizhi said with a smile, and then got up and went back home to tell her family about it first.
