Farmhouse is so old

The yellow mud and snails were almost done. Tang Qing and Zhou Qing walked home with a basket and a basket.

"Can you finish eating so much?" Zhou Qing looked worried at the basket full of snails, and how should he eat the shells?It was still dark, with a fishy smell, which seemed to make people lose their appetite.

Tang Qing looked at Zhou Qing's complexion, and comforted him with a smile: "You must not eat the shell when you eat it, don't worry about it, just eat the meat inside, there is not much at all, maybe there will not be enough to eat by then Woolen cloth."

It looks like there are a lot of snails in a basket, but there are also many people in the family. Maybe these are not enough to eat, but there are plenty of snails in this river.

"As for this smell, don't worry, I have a way to get rid of it. Even the smell of seafood in the sea, we can get rid of it completely. This fishy smell is nothing." The snail can't be eaten immediately after taking it back. , You have to soak all the soil inside with clean water, and then wash the outer shell clean.

Zhou Qing had never handled this thing before, so he couldn't speak too much. Tang Qing said he had a way, so he believed him unconditionally.

"Then what are you digging so much yellow mud for?" Fortunately, the snails are for eating, so it can't be that the yellow mud is also for eating.

Tang Qing chuckled and stopped talking. He wanted to surprise Zhou Qing, and he didn't quite understand what he said now, so it's better to wait for him to make it and practice it before telling him.

The two carried their things, and they didn't dare to delay on the way, and walked home quickly, especially Zhou Qing was still carrying a basket. Although the basket of snails was not heavy, Tang Qing didn't dare to let him carry it for too long.

Before reaching the door of the house, Zhou Shan and Zhou He saw them from a distance. Seeing that they were still carrying things in their hands, they hurried over to help.

"You two, are you too busy? With such sharp eyes, you can see us from a long distance." Tang Qing walked all the way carrying the yellow mud, his hands were a little sore, and it happened that Zhou Shan gave him a hand, so he moved a little arm.

"Except for some hunters who often bring some prey to sell, there are basically no people. There is also Wen Hu, a strong man, and the daily work is very easy." Zhou Shan replied with a smile, and it is indeed not as busy as it was a few days ago Many villagers dug up wild vegetables and sold them to the village chief nearby.The village head will deliver the wild vegetables to them, so he will be busy in the morning, and usually free in the afternoon.

Tang Qing smiled, thinking about it, no matter how long the wild vegetables are throughout the year, there will always be a time when the wild vegetables will be dug. The wild vegetables in the past two days look a bit old, and it is not suitable to dig them. Besides, these children have been digging since the beginning of spring I haven't rested until now, so I can give them a long vacation.

"Uncle, what are you doing with these useless things?" Zhang Lan and the others ran over to help after finishing their work.Seeing the yellow mud and snails in Zhou Shanzhou's hands, they were all puzzled. In their eyes, these things are useless.

"Eat it, stir-fried snails with yellow mud, this tastes good." After staying with Tang Qing for a long time, Zhou Qing learned to tease people, and his words were serious, which was easy to be believed.

Sure enough, the children wailed when they heard it: "No way, we have been very obedient recently, so we shouldn't be punished like this."

The first thing these children thought was that it must be made for them, because it was impossible for Zhou Qing to eat this when she was pregnant, so they were the only ones.The children couldn't figure out why they were punished for what they didn't do well.

Tang Qing held back his laughter, and instead of tearing down Zhou Qing's stage, he said in a dignified manner, "Well, you haven't washed the snails, they are all for you to eat tomorrow, don't you?" Wash it, and be careful to eat a mouthful of mud."

After hearing Tang Qing's words, everyone was dumbfounded. They really wanted to give them something to eat. Everyone's faces turned pale for a moment. do so.

Tang Qing and Zhou Qing looked at each other, and the smiles in their eyes couldn't be hidden. It's fun to tease the children once in a while, and it's good for physical and mental health. Isn't raising children just for fun, otherwise what would you do with them? .

The busy children in the kitchen kept washing the snails with water and salt. When they thought that this was what they wanted to eat, they wished they could clean the shells. Zhang Lan even found a brush to clean the snails. The shells are all brushed.

I soaked it in water and salt until I could no longer wash off the mud or smell it.

After Song Wenhu finished his work, he ran to the yard to punch. Everyone knew that he was going to join the army, and they all admired him.Although the Ming Kingdom has been much more stable in the past two years, there have been many fights on the borders, large and small, and it may be fatal if they go there.

But Song Wenhu said that this is what he wanted to do since he was a child, and everyone didn't try to persuade him.

However, his behavior also made a group of children start to reflect. They haven't figured out what they want to do in the future. They can't help their uncle collect the goods for a lifetime. Now is also the time to think about their future.

Everyone seemed to have grown up a lot overnight, and they all started to make plans for themselves in the future.

"Sister Lan, have you thought about what to do in the future?" Zhou Su leaned on the pillar and asked Zhang Lan blankly.

"I haven't thought about it yet, what about you? Do you have any ideas?" Zhang Lan shook her head gently at Zhou Su. She had never thought about it so much before, and thought that it would be good to get married when she grew up, but following Uncle Jun has read a lot of books, and he also knows that this is wrong, girls can also have a career.

As long as they have the confidence, they will not wrong themselves in the in-law's house in the future, and life will not be so difficult. They can live well without relying on men.This is the life Zhang Lan longs for, not like other women living submissively to men and her in-laws.

"I don't know, my sister is married, and my mother intends to let me get a wife, but it's so easy to get a wife these days, and my mother is taking the medicine prescribed by my third uncle recently, maybe I can give birth to a younger brother in a short time. Isn't it an embarrassing time."

Zhou Su was also very confused. Her family's situation was more complicated, so she had to think a little more than ordinary people.Moreover, it is not easy to recruit a relative. First of all, the patriarchs in the village have a difficult time.

"Then what do you think?" Zhang Lan also understood the situation of Zhou Su's family and wanted to hear her own opinion.

Zhou Su looked around nervously, and chuckled lightly: "I'm not afraid of making fun of you if I say it, I want to save some money after my sister gets married, and come out to set up a household by myself, so that in the future, no matter whether it's recruiting a wife or my mother has a younger brother, the family There will be no conflict."

But it is not easy for a girl to establish a household. First of all, money is a big problem, and Zhou Su does not intend to take the things at home, and everything depends on herself.

Zhang Lan was also very impressed when she heard this. She never thought that Zhou Su, who has always been quiet and quiet, would have such a bold idea. On the other hand, she never planned for the future, and just muddled through every day.

Not only the girls have such thoughts here, but a group of boys have also started to think about it, especially Zhou Shan and Zhou He, they are both not young, so they should make plans for themselves.

Before they left Zhoujia Village, their idea was very simple, that is, to earn more money and buy more land so that they could return home and farm.But now following Tang Qing, they realize that farming is only worth a few dollars.In the past six months with Tang Qing, he has earned more money than his family has earned from farming in ten years.

But they can't rely on Tang Qing for a lifetime, people always have to learn to grow up by themselves, and it is impossible for Tang Qing and Zhou Qing to help them for a lifetime.If you can have your own career, it will be more fulfilling than relying on Tang Qing.

Zhou Shan and Zhou He stared at each other, thinking about what to do in the future.

"If you want to do anything, you have to have money, unless you join the army like Brother Wenhu." Zhou Chuan looked at everyone from the side, and said exactly what he said.

One sentence awakens the dreamer. If they want to do anything, they must have money. They don’t have much money in their bodies now. It’s a problem to buy a shop. No matter how much they think about it, it’s better to save more money. You don't have to be too tight to do what you want.

On the second day, Tang Qing got up early to prepare the snails. Last night he thought about what to do all night, snail noodles, fried snails and so on.

In the end, I still consider the reality. It is really worthwhile to make fried snails. He has no fans now, so it is useless to think about it.

Because I really wanted to eat it, I was afraid that I wouldn’t be able to eat it today if I didn’t wash it well in the middle of the night, so I went to the kitchen to check it out, and dripped a few drops of oil in the basin, so I was relieved.

Tang Qing came to the kitchen and saw the snails in the big wooden basin. The water inside was only a little cloudy, but it was still very clean. It seemed that Zhang Lan and the others washed it very carefully yesterday.

After Tang Qing washed it several times with clean water, he finally felt at ease. He cut off the front point of the snail with scissors and took out the internal organs of the snail.Then prepare the homemade watercress with onion, ginger, garlic, and pepper, as well as homemade five-spice powder and thirteen spices. The most important thing is not to forget the pepper.

Heat up the pot, put in oil, wait until the oil starts to smoke slightly, put in onion, ginger, garlic, bean paste, etc. and start to stir-fry. In less than a moment, the kitchen is filled with the aroma of seasonings. Tang Qing swallowed, While pouring the cleaned snails into the pot, continue to stir-fry over high heat.

The scent kept wafting out, but it filled the whole house in a short while, and the children ran to the kitchen smelling the smell.I kept swallowing my saliva, it was so fragrant, I couldn't stop the saliva from my mouth just smelling it, I don't know how delicious it will be in my mouth, everyone can't help but look forward to it.

Even Song Chengyun, who has always been calm and composed, was attracted by the smell, and couldn't bear to read the book, so he ran out of the kitchen, looking forward to it.

And Tang Qing was even worse. He thought about it all night last night, and he put in a lot of effort to prepare it today. If it didn't taste good, he would be sorry for his craftsmanship.

"Lan'er, the snails are not tasty, let us eat them later." Zhou Shan teased while swallowing his saliva.Yesterday they were still whining about whether this thing could be eaten, but now he wished he could snatch it all and give it to him alone.

Zhang Lan rolled her eyes at Zhou Shan. How can an uncle do this? Aren’t they all trying to give in to his niece? Why do they turn around and grab things from her niece? Too much talk.
