After becoming the villain's eldest sister, I take charge of the whole family
Chapter 42: Huoxiang Crucian Carp
Another day.
Xie Linghe went to the mountain early in the morning to check the mousetrap and finally found the goods.
Very even.
Each of the three nets caught a bamboo rat, all of which were very large.
But sadly.
The largest one was bitten to death by a bamboo pit viper, so its meat could not be eaten.
She could only throw it away with great reluctance.
Holding the other two, I consoled myself: "I still have two left, which is already pretty good. I need to learn to be content."
I just ate bamboo rat a few days ago.
Xie Linghe did not plan to eat these two today, but to dry them into bamboo rat meat for preservation.
As for the meat~
Xie Linghe doesn't want to eat anything from the mountains today.
She wanted to eat something from the river.
……
Downhill.
I picked a handful of Huoxiang on the way.
Return home and put the bamboo rat in the cage first.
Xie Linghe entered Xie Sanhe's room, took the fishing net from the wall, and walked to the river with a bucket of water.
Xinghua Village is located on the coast of Chunde County.
But Xinghua Village is located on the back of the sea, close to the sea, yet seems far away.
Fortunately.
Xinghua Village also has abundant river fish resources.
Xie Linghe found a river bank without aquatic plants, cast the fishing net, waited for a few minutes, and then fished it out.
Finally, a crucian carp weighing half a pound appeared.
Xie Linghe didn't dislike it and put it in the bucket.
carry on.
Ten networks in a row.
We caught twenty or thirty crucian carps, some big and some small, the largest weighing only one pound.
But Xie Linghe was already very satisfied.
After all, crucian carp doesn’t grow big, and a weight of one kilogram is already a very large size.
Say.
Crucian carp that weighs more than one kilogram is not tasty.
Besides.
Xie Linghe also caught some crabs and river shrimps. She found and caught some crabs in the nearby pile of rocks, picked up a handful of snails, picked up several pounds of conchs, and cracked a dozen oysters. The whole bucket was full before she stopped.
"Xiao Xi, what time is it?"
System: "Replying to the host, it is now 11:00 AM."
Xie Linghe felt a little unsatisfied, but he controlled himself and said, "It's almost time to go home."
Although this is not sea-hunting, she still finds it quite enjoyable.
In her previous life, as an inland person, she loved watching short videos of people going to the beach, and she always fantasized that she could go there every day.
This is not a real sea.
But because it is close to the sea, oysters grow on the rocks.
Oysters are not clams.
Oysters can only grow on the seashore, while oysters generally grow at the confluence of rivers and the sea, or in sea areas with good water quality.
The river in Xinghua Village is the confluence of the two.
Closer to home.
Xie Linghe returned with a full load.
She raised all the crucian carps and planned to have a river seafood stew at noon.
Crabs, shrimps and snails are all steamed.
Pry open the oysters and make garlic oysters.
Finish cooking.
Xie Zhongji and three others also returned home.
Seeing this table full of food, several people were shocked and surprised.
Xie Zhongji: "Sister, what is this strange-looking thing? It smells strangely fragrant!"
"Yeah, it smells so good~"
"This thing looks like stone meat?!"
Hear this.
Xie Linghe nodded: "That's it."
Xie Zhongji's expression suddenly turned cold: "Is that it? This thing doesn't taste good."
Xie Shuze nodded: "Yes, no matter how you cook it, it will always have a fishy smell."
Xie Jijun said disdainfully: "It's not even as delicious as crab!"
How could Xie Linghe tolerate anyone disliking garlic oysters? This is an insult to garlic oysters.
She patted her chest and assured: "You did it wrong before, it will definitely be delicious this time."
"If you don't believe me, try it."
Upon hearing this.
Several people looked at each other.
At this moment, Xie Lingai stretched out her chopsticks, picked up one and put it in her mouth, her eyes shining: "It's delicious~"
"Yeah? Eat more."
Xie Linghe pinched her cheek.
After raising it for a few days, it finally started to grow meat.
After a few more months of raising it, it should be able to grow plump and white!
Seeing Xie Lingai's performance, Xie Zhongji and the other two were also shaken. They tentatively picked up one and took a bite. They were immediately amazed by its delicious taste.
"How come these sea stones and garlic taste so good together?"
"Yeah, there's no fishy smell at all."
"It's so fragrant, sweet and tender, big sister, how did you do that?"
"..."
Xie Linghe glanced at them arrogantly.
……
After lunch break.
Xie Linghe did not go up the mountain.
She planned to dispose of the bracken.
Before drying bracken, you need to blanch it in water, just like bamboo shoots, to remove the astringency.
Four hundred kilograms of bracken is a lot.
It took her a full hour and a half to finish it.
Finished.
Around four o'clock in the afternoon.
Not idle.
She also had to move.
The house of Xie Sanhe and his wife had not been occupied for a long time, so there was a lot of dust. It took Xie Linghe half an hour to clean up before he finished moving.
Five p.m.
Xie Linghe finally had some free time.
She lay on the new bed, took out "General Knowledge of Chinese Calligraphy" and slowly opened it.
As the host of the main system, she has great freedom and learning calligraphy depends entirely on her mood.
Of course, the learning method is the same as Xie Boyuan's.
The time spent studying goes by quickly.
In the blink of an eye, it was six o'clock in the afternoon.
Xie Linghe started to cook dinner.
The main dish is the crucian carp caught this morning, which is made into a famous Sichuan dish - Huoxiang Crucian Carp.
Not only delicious.
And it’s a great accompaniment to rice.
She specially cooked three pounds of rice.
……
The whole family gathered together.
As soon as they tasted it, they all fell in love with this dish.
I cooked three pounds of rice, and I ate six pounds of it all.
Xie Shuze and Xie Jijun were both full and said they wanted to go out for a walk to help digest the food.
Xie Boyuan said directly: "No need to take a walk. I will teach you how to read later. Half an hour of study will naturally consume the time."
As soon as these words came out.
Aside from Xie Linghe and Xie Zhongji, who already knew about this, the remaining three people were like, "???"
Xie Boyuan said seriously, "My elder sister and I agreed yesterday that starting today, I will teach you how to recognize Chinese characters for half an hour every day."
Xie Linghe nodded: "That's right."
Xie Zhongji had a smile on his face, and his eyes were full of anticipation and eagerness to try.
Xie Shuze felt like the sky was falling.
"Literacy?"
"I don't want it!!!"
Xie Jijun quickly agreed: "That's right, big brother and big sister, we are not taking the imperial examinations, so there is no need for us to learn to read."
Xie Linghe frowned.
Do these two people dislike reading so much?
This is not possible!
However, she didn't need to say anything. Xie Boyuan glared at them and said in a cold tone: "Objection is invalid."
"Everyone, including my eldest sister and my youngest daughter, must be literate."
Xie Zhongji said, "I'll learn."
Xie Linghe also responded: "I will learn too."
Xie Shuze and Xie Jijun looked at each other and nodded with bitter faces.
Only Xie Lingai remained silent.
Xie Boyuan frowned and looked at her: "Xiao Ai, you don't want to learn either?"
If it weren't for the system requirements, he wouldn't care whether Xie Lingai learned it or not, but now it's not her turn.
Hear the words.
Xie Lingai woke up as if from a dream and spoke cautiously: "Brother, can I also read and write?"
Xie Boyuan's expression eased slightly: "Yeah."
It turns out that it’s not that I don’t want to learn, but I haven’t reacted yet.
After receiving her eldest brother's affirmative response, Xie Lingai suddenly stood up straight and said in a firm voice: "I will definitely work hard!"
