The Sweet Little Fulang

The river flows across the hillside to the field, and flows along the river bed to the distance.

In the afternoon, the sun gradually moves westward, and the water surface in the wide area is sparkling. In the deep water far from the shore in the middle of the river, you can sometimes hear a thud, and fish jump out and fall.

On the bank of the water, puppies were running around. Lu Gu squatted on the ground and finally found a thin piece of small stone. He followed Shen Xuanqing's example and splashed water into the river for fun. Unfortunately, the small piece of stone did not float. When I got up, I sank to the bottom at the first stroke, and there were two or three small ripples on the surface of the water.

Immediately afterwards, the thin stone in Shen Xuanqing's hand flew out like flying, hitting three floats on the water surface before sinking, and even the circle of ripples was much larger.

Hearing that chuckle, Lu Gu looked up at Shen Xuanqing who was a few steps away, and sighed very lightly. He really couldn't learn this, so he said: "Go back, I still have to cook."

"En." Shen Xuanqing knocked out another small stone in his hand, watched the ripples on the river, and then bent down to pick up the bamboo basket.

In the afternoon, they walked around to the open space behind the house and searched for spring seedlings along the river bank. This is a kind of wild vegetable, also called spring seedlings. The buds and leaves growing at this moment are at the greenest time, so pick off the tenderest tips and bring them back. At home, I can make a fresh soup with pork.

"Good boy." Lu Gu called out to the pup who ran away, the two walked ahead, and the pup quickly caught up.

"In a few days, the weather will be warmer and the trees on the mountain will grow lusher. The wild boars and old bears will not run around if they have something to eat, and then they will pack up the mountain." Shen Xuanqing said after carrying the bamboo basket.

After the beginning of spring, all the hibernating things in the mountains wake up, and they sleep for so long on the fat that grew before winter, which is no different from being hungry all winter. Naturally, when they wake up, they are looking for food everywhere. old bear.

Bears are not easy to deal with. They are rough-skinned and ferocious, and a slight mistake can kill them. Otherwise, bear paws and gallbladder would not be rare.The hunters in their vicinity, as long as they are not really short of money, rarely take the risk to hunt bears, and they have to spend their lives to earn money.

Besides, after a winter, the wild animals in the mountains are either pregnant or thin. The hares and pheasants can be hunted as long as they walk a short distance to the front of the mountain. He took them with big gray and caught three rabbits back this morning. , dragged back, the snow in the mountains melted and spring came, it was not so cold and dangerous.

"Yeah." Lu Gu nodded. Speaking of going up the mountain, he thought of his chickens and ducks. Now the ducks are laying eggs. Every day, he adds one piece of eggs and duck eggs. If there is less, he can collect seven or eight eggs. It is the time to lay eggs. .

But if you go up the mountain, you have to toss the chickens and ducks up. The road is so far away, and it is still very bumpy. The road in the mountain is like no road. What's more, the chickens and ducks stuffed into the cage may not lay eggs for several days during the bumpy journey.

Besides, every time the two of them went up and down the mountain, as long as there were important things on the cart, Shen Xuanqing's shoulders and back would be rubbed red or even worn out by the rope.

"What about the chickens and ducks?" Lu Gu asked as he thought of this.

Shen Xuanqing paused, and understood his concerns. It is best not to move the chickens and ducks around when they are laying eggs. If they are frightened during the running, they should not lay eggs properly. He hesitated and said, "Why don't you stay at home and let Shen Yan take care of it."

The pup ran to the front, saw that the two of them hadn't followed, stopped and looked back, and barked twice.

Shen Xuanqing looked at it subconsciously. In fact, the purpose of buying chickens and ducks was to relieve Lu Gu's boredom on the mountain. Otherwise, once he left, Lu Gu would be left alone. But now that he has a puppy, he doesn't worry about it anymore.

Lu Gu frowned slightly. He was happy to raise chickens to feed ducks, but he didn't want the chickens and ducks that had just laid eggs to be frightened. He felt that what Shen Xuanqing said was right, and that Shen Xuanqing would be too tired after pulling up the mountain. He stretched his brows and said, "Well, just stay at home. From now on, you don't have to ask mother for the eggs and duck eggs you bring up the mountain. The eggs they lay are enough for the two of us."

While talking, Shen Xuanqing looked up and saw a familiar figure beside the small pond in front, who else could it be if it wasn't Shen Yaoqing.

"Brother," he called.

Shen Yaoqing turned his back to the two of them, because the pup had already come running, he knew they were nearby, and without turning his head, he said loudly: "It's just in time, take a basket to block it, I caught a water turtle."

As soon as Shen Xuanqing took a long leg, she walked over in a few steps, helping to get the water turtle up.

The pup has never seen a turtle before, its head is tilted, its eyes are full of curiosity, it wants to get closer to sniff things like bastards, although they walk slowly, but meat eaters, they will bite whatever they catch, and they will not let go of their bites , had to bite off a piece of meat, Lu Gu was afraid that it would be bitten, so he quickly pulled the thick fur around its neck and pulled it aside.

"It's not bad." Shen Yaoqing looked at the water turtle in the fish basket and smiled. Seeing that the two of them came back after picking spring seedlings, they picked up the fish basket and walked home together, saying: "I bought the pork, and I can cook it when I go back." Soup, soak this water turtle in a bucket overnight, and stew it tomorrow."

It is said that the soft-shelled turtles are fattening just after the cold spring. They call them water turtles in the countryside, but they are called soft-shelled turtles in towns. Now is the time to get fat.

"Sister-in-law can eat?" Shen Xuanqing asked, ever since Ji Qiuyue became pregnant, many things have to be avoided, this can't be eaten and that can't be eaten, sometimes even he feels guilty just looking at it, the water turtle is very nourishing for ordinary people, But because he was not familiar with pharmacology, he asked casually.

Shen Yaoqing was naturally more caring than him, and asked the doctor early in the morning, and said: "I asked Doctor Wang during the first consultation, that water turtles should not be eaten too much, half a bowl of soup and one or two pieces of meat are enough to satisfy the gluttony, mainly pork and chicken , and fish soup, these are not afraid."

"She can eat spring green shoots today to satisfy her addiction, but we can eat this water turtle tomorrow." Shen Yaoqing added with a smile at the end.

Winter is finally over, and in spring, you can't eat some fresh food to satisfy your appetite.

As for Ji Qiuyue, although she can't eat much, Shen Yaoqing buys pork or black-bone chicken to make meat stew for her every few days. Drizzle sesame oil every time, and I have never been treated badly.

When they got home, Shen Yan had already cut up the lean meat slices, picked up the hollow garlic that hadn't sprouted, and chopped some minced garlic.

Lu Gu is very proficient at cooking now, even if he has never made spring seedling soup before, he will know what to do just by asking Wei Lanxiang.

Spring seedlings and pork soup are also simple, stir-fry minced garlic, pour hot water to boil, pour in lean meat slices, boil and then pour in the cleaned spring seedlings.

There are a lot of spring seedlings, and a large pot of soup comes out. The tender tips are really good to eat. There is very little minced garlic, but it is fragrant. The soup is slightly salty and delicious. Maybe the wild vegetables are fresh enough, which is better than stew Soups are delicious.

This kind of wild vegetable is warm and flat, and there is no taboo, and it is cooked with pork soup, and pregnant people can eat it. Ji Qiuyue finally had a delicious meal of wild vegetables.

Dinner was early today, Lu Gu washed the dishes and went outside to pour water, the setting sun and sunset glowed together, and the sky was orange.

The water splashed on the open space beside the house and flowed to the roots of the persimmon trees. He straightened up with an empty wooden basin in one hand and looked westward. The evening breeze was blowing, which made him feel very comfortable.

Lu Gu was about to turn around and go home when he saw a figure coming down from the hillside not far away. He didn't recognize who it was from a distance, and he didn't pay much attention. Then he turned his head and saw a group of dogs playing in the village. The puppies went out to play after eating Even though he didn't see it, he still called out.

"Wang!"

The pup crawled out from the gap between the two houses, and ran back wagging its tail. Seeing this, Lu Gu stood at the door and waited for it.

I never thought that the person who came down from the mountain was also close, but it was Huang Da from the village.

"Yo, it's Lu Gu." Huang Da's small eyes rolled around in their sockets, and he spoke frivolously. He was always a bum who was despised and hated by the villagers.

Seeing Lu Gu alone at the door, his eyes became dishonest, and based on his understanding of these women and husbands, if the cowardly one was taken advantage of verbally, he would not dare to tell the man at home, for fear Scolded and beaten.

Lu Gu was told by Shen Xuanqing a long time ago, when he met Huang Da, he ignored it and didn't answer. Now that he was stared at by strange eyes, he felt a chill coming from his heart, and felt inexplicably bored, so he rolled it up while washing the dishes. A part of the sleeve exposed his arm, and at this moment, he felt like his hairs were standing on end.

The puppy ran back, Huang Da saw it, and reached out his hand to pet the dog's head.

"Good boy!" Lu Gu suddenly said, his tone was a bit sharp after being frightened, which made the pup suddenly alert, ran to him and raised his head, as if trying to figure out what was wrong.

"Hey." Huang Da didn't touch the dog, saw that Lu Gu was really good-looking, white and beautiful, and dressed well enough, seeing that Lu Gu turned to go back, he muttered in his mouth: "This millet."

His voice was neither too loud nor too soft, deliberately to let Lu Gu hear him.

Lu Gu felt nauseous in his stomach, and felt a kind of fear from the bottom of his heart, and he stepped faster.

Seeing him like this, Huang Da laughed even more wretchedly outside the courtyard gate. He didn't dare to talk to Lu Gu too much. Seeing that the Shen brothers were not there, he could make Lu Gu afraid by asking for cheap, so he felt in his heart that he sharp.

He was looking into the courtyard of Shen's house, but Shen Xuanqing came out of the main room, and immediately shrank his neck and left quickly.

"What's the matter?" Shen Xuanqing frowned when he saw that Lu Gu's face turned pale in a hurry, and he also recognized Huang Da who had slipped away from the door.

Now Lu Gu felt a little bit wronged, and honestly told Huang Da that he still called him by his name.

If others are okay, Huang Da, a bastard, doesn't have a serious word in his mouth, and Shen Xuanqing's face turns dark all of a sudden.

In the past, Lu Gu would still feel that there was something wrong with him, but now he can know that Shen Xuanqing's anger is not directed at him.

Seeing Shen Xuanqing walking directly outside the door, it seemed that he was going to find Huang Da, Lu Gu opened his mouth, wanted to persuade him but didn't know where to persuade him, put down the wooden basin and hurried to catch up, his heart was pounding.

As a result, Huang Da was not found after going out, only heard a scream from the door of Zhang's house, and Li Wanyun, who came back from picking wild vegetables, shouted: "I have been thieves, I have been thieves!"
