In the book, I was fed by my sister
Chapter 3 Wild Mushroom Soup
"Oh, eldest sister of the Song family, what a coincidence, I didn't expect to meet you again when I came back." Wu Dongmei greeted warmly from a distance, as if making Song Ran unhappy when they separated was a trivial matter.
The Song sisters turned their heads together and saw Sister-in-law Sanwan jogging towards them with an empty basket.
"You are so lucky. Where did you find so many mushrooms?" Mrs. Sanwan looked at Song Ran's basket full of wild mushrooms with envy. Even Song Li was holding a handful in her little hand.
Oh my god, there are so many mushrooms, I can make some mushroom oil.
When eating noodles, add a little mushroom oil and it will taste so delicious.
Thinking of this, Sanwan's wife swallowed her saliva and said, "Alas, sister-in-law is not as lucky as you. I didn't find anything. My son is still waiting for this bite of mushroom. I don't know how he will make a fuss if he can't have it today."
While speaking, his eyes were fixed on the basket of wild mushrooms.
"Sister Song, your nephew will probably be very upset if he can't eat. How about you..."
Song Ran raised an eyebrow. This relationship was not even remotely related. If you didn't know, you would really think he was a nephew. Most people in Lihua Village were surnamed Li, so they were more or less related, but their Song family settled in Lihua Village later.
"My sister said that we should take the mushrooms to the town to sell, and use the money to pay for my medical treatment. Aunt, do you want to buy some? We will sell them to you, and my sister won't have to go to the city."
Before Sanwan's wife could finish her words, Song Li spoke first.
"Sister Ran, your little sister is really good at talking. We are all from the same village. Besides, you picked this thing up in the mountains, and you are talking about money with your sister-in-law. How hurtful."
"Then sister-in-law doesn't want me to be cured?"
"Hey, how is that possible..."
With this big moral hat pressed down on her, Sanwan's wife, who usually likes to take advantage of others, is too embarrassed to continue speaking.
The three of them were in a stalemate for a while. Sanwan's wife kept winking at Song Ran. Seeing that Song Ran didn't say anything, she rolled her eyes and walked away with the basket.
"If you don't want to give it to me, then don't give it to me. You're so stingy."
"Puchi, Xiaoguai, you did a great job. Sister will cook wild mushroom soup for you when she gets home." Seeing the person walking away, Song Ran laughed out loud.
Song Li frowned. Wild mushroom soup? Isn't that mushroom soup? She hasn't eaten it for a long time. Mushrooms in the end times smell like rotten wood and are only considered as ingredients when there is really no food. But on second thought, the eggs are so delicious, this wild mushroom soup may also have a unique flavor.
The sun was about to set, and the afterglow of the sunset was filled with the deep and shallow footprints of people and animals. Song Li followed the path that others had walked, and walked with her sister towards the village that briefly woke up before the night fell.
The village is empty during the day, people hide in the shade of trees and in the shade of the fields. When a cloud floats over the horizon, people take advantage of the shade to turn the fields and weed. When the cloud leaves, people hide back in the shade, chewing on the same old stuff.
The village began to become lively in the evening. Dogs that had been napping all day began to chase each other, and people rushed cows and sheep home from the fields.
Along the way, many people saw the big basket of mushrooms brought by the Song sisters, because Sanwan's wife was two steps ahead of them and had already shouted what had just happened in the village.
Fortunately, Wu Dongmei had said the gossip in advance so no one came forward to ask.
Song Ran ignored the looks of these people. She was going to sell it for money. If they wanted to eat it, they could just go pick it up in the mountains.
"So you guys went out. I knocked on the door but no one answered."
When Song Li and her sister walked to the door of their house, they saw an old lady sitting on the high threshold of the neighbor's house. When the old lady saw them, she greeted them warmly.
The neighbor of the Song family is also surnamed Li, and the majority surname in this village is Li. My mother-in-law's surname is Gu, and she married into the family from another village, so the Song sisters call her Grandma Gu.
The current head of the household is Li Tingyan, who has been stationed in the military camp for many years, leaving his grandmother alone at home. Li Tingyan is six years older than Song Ran, and he called him brother when he was a child. Now he is away from home all year round, and Song Ran usually takes care of his grandmother because of their childhood affection.
"Xiao Li'er can go out today. It seems that Doctor Qin still has some skills."
"She's in a much better mood, so I took her out for a walk today."
"Xiao Li'er, come here to grandma, I'll give you some candy." Grandma Gu waved at Song Li, and the silver bracelets on her hands jingled with her movements.
There was a war going on outside, and Song Ran knew that the candy had become precious, so she quickly refused, "Grandma, keep it for yourself. I have always had a poor appetite, and it would be a pity if I vomited after eating it."
Song Li has a poor appetite, and her grandmother knew it. Looking at Song Li who looked like a little monkey, her grandmother's eyes were full of pity: "Why don't you try one? My grandson sent it to me, it's delicious, better than the maltose bought in town."
"Then try one?" Song Ran looked at Song Li.
Song Li immediately responded: "Thank you, mother-in-law. I'll try one then."
"Wait for me, I'm going back to the house." After saying this, Grandma Gu turned around and went back to the house, leaving behind her shiny bun and the silver hairpin on it.
Grandma Gu was nimble and soon got a small cloth bag.
"That's not possible. We agreed to only have one." Song Ran quickly evaded the question.
"Children want candy, and adults want it too. Grandma gave it to you, so just take it."
Song Ran took the candy and took a bunch of mushrooms from the basket.
"Grandma, these are the mushrooms we found in the mountains today. Take them back and try them."
"I can't have your mushrooms. I'm going to the city today, and mushrooms are very expensive in the market. Your mushrooms are plump and fresh, so they can be sold at a higher price."
"Grandma doesn't want these mushrooms, so we can't have your candy either," Song Ran said.
"Then take it, grandma. I'll give you another bowl of lard."
"Eh..." Before Song Ran could say no, the old lady had already returned to the house.
Finally, there was a bowl of lard and a small bag of sugar in Song Ran's basket.
After arriving home, Song Ran separated a small stalk of mushrooms, removed the roots of the rest, placed them in a shady place, and covered them with moist straw paper.
Then I went to the kitchen, waited for the pot to heat up, put in a spoonful of lard. When the lard melted, I put in scallion segments, ginger shreds, and washed mushrooms and stir-fried them together until the aroma came out, and then added boiled water.
The pot soon began to emit bubbling aroma, and Song Ran added a little kudzu root powder to thicken the sauce.
When the pot began to bubble again, Song Ran pulled out the wood from the stove.
She thought about it and took out an egg.
Pour the egg liquid slowly into the boiling soup without stirring, and the egg liquid spreads like a cloud.
Song Li was outside the kitchen, sniffing the aroma of the mushroom soup. She licked the candy in her hand, it was really sweet and had a hint of orange. She didn't expect the old woman to give her such a good thing.
"Little darling, wash your hands and eat."
Song Li obediently washed her hands, then moved her sister's stool and her own small stool to the low table.
Since he was too small to hold the soup bowl, Song Li took the responsibility of holding the bowl and chopsticks.
Wild mushroom and egg soup is served.
Song Ran served Song Li a bowl, and then served himself another bowl.
"Today's mushroom soup is so delicious." Song Ran took a sip and said in surprise. It's not like she had never had it before, and the cooking method today was not particularly unusual, but the mushrooms tasted brighter today than before.
Song Li gulped down the food and nodded quickly. The delicious taste of the wild mushrooms rose to her head. She hadn't eaten anything so delicious in more than ten years. She wanted to lick the bowl clean.
In the apocalypse, almost all the delicious ingredients had to be cultivated by the wood power, otherwise it was just the same old three: cockroach protein cakes, potatoes, and concentrated wheat juice. Foods that were difficult to eat could become delicious after being cultivated by the power, not to mention these foods that were originally edible.
"Sister, let's go to the mountains again tomorrow." Song Li looked at her sister eagerly. Her current supernatural power should be able to make mushrooms grow on a hundred meters of land. She wondered if her sister would faint from fright when she saw mushrooms everywhere.
"I have to go to the town market tomorrow morning. Besides, the mushrooms will take at least ten days to grow."
Song Li shouted in his heart, go now and you’ll find it!
"Okay." We have to take our time and at least respect the current laws of nature. If we act too hastily, my sister will probably be the first to be scared.
