Chapter 523 Reunion
"Will we take a look at Xikou Village?" Su Jin always felt that Zhao Liang was too unreliable.
Qin Lang couldn't help frowning when he heard this person's name, and shook his head after thinking about it: "Forget it, don't go, I'll go and tell Ping An and ask him to help him keep an eye on him and give Zhao Liang some tips. That is to open up wasteland. Ping An is already familiar with it."
Su Jin smiled: "That's fine too!"
The 300 acres of wasteland in Xikou Village was bought when Yu Qingshan was there, but it was inconvenient to open up wasteland in spring and summer, so it had not been touched before. Now is the time when the grass leaves are withering and turning yellow.
After dealing with these matters at home, the two set off for Fancheng.
Before coming to Fancheng, they would always live in the farmhouse at Liuye Zhuang. Now that Yu Qingshan and Yang Qing are in Wenshan Village, they also went to Wenshan Village.
When the two of them arrived, they happened to be both there, and they were both surprised and delighted to see them.
"Sister Su and Brother Qin, I didn't expect to meet again so soon!"
Su Jin smiled and said, "I have something to do to come to Fancheng. I'll come to see you by the way. Are you still used to it?"
Both smiled and nodded, "This is similar to our village, it's pretty good. The yard you live in has been cleaned all the time, but the bedding is probably useless for too long, so I'll take it out and dry it."
"I can do this kind of work myself!"
Su Jin and Yang Qing chatted and laughed as they went to tidy up the residence, while Yu Qingshan called Zhuang Ding to help carry the carriage down, glanced in the direction of the house and couldn't help but asked Qin Lang in a low voice: "Brother Qin, the Yang family Over there. No more trouble, right?"
Qin Lang chuckled: "You are all gone, even if you want to make trouble, you can't find anyone to make trouble. They don't dare to go in our family."
Yu Qingshan heaved a sigh of relief: "That's good, otherwise I will feel uncomfortable if you are involved."
"You can rest assured, you have no chance of being uncomfortable!" Qin Lang joked, and Yu Qingshan also laughed when he said it.
Su Jin and Qin Lang came suddenly, there was no food at home, Yu Qingshan wanted to go to Fancheng to buy some food, while Yang Qing accompanied Su Jin around the farm.
At this time of year, there are not many wild wild vegetables, but there are quite a few snails in a canal about 1.5 meters that flows through the farmhouse. Each one is slightly larger than the thumb, which is just right.
Su Jin was interested, took a bamboo basket and picked up most of the basket, kept it in a wooden barrel, and put a few drops of sesame oil to make it spit mud.
Field snails are no better than river snails, and the smell of mud is heavier. They need to be raised for two or three days. After they have spit out all the mud, they will be stir-fried with a lot of basil leaves, cinnamon, ginger, onion, garlic, pepper, pepper, and vinegar. , it tastes fresh.
Yang Qing smiled and said, "There are so many snails in the ditches, and the tenants are all catching them to feed the ducks. How can there be someone who eats as finely as Mrs. Su. But just listening to Mrs. Su's words makes me feel greedy. It's gone!"
Su Jin smiled and said, "Then you will have a good time. You can learn it from me, and you can eat it anytime in the future."
Yang Qing said again: "Speaking of koufu, there is a kind of mushroom on the mountain here, which happens to be in this season. Although it doesn't look good, it is very delicious. It's late today. Let's go to find it tomorrow, okay? Come on. It just so happened that I heard from the villagers that the mushrooms will be gone in a few days."
Su Jin was a little interested and nodded with a smile: "How can such a good thing be missed? Well, let's go tomorrow!"
Yu Qingshan was driving a horse-drawn carriage into the city to buy vegetables today, so he would stop by the Lin family and tell the Lin family that they were here. It would not be rude to visit the Lin family first after inspecting their own property.
Yu Qingshan bought a fat local goose, as well as ham tofu, dried mushrooms, dried bamboo shoots, etc. Tonight, I will make a large pot of dried mushrooms and dried bamboo shoots, stewed local goose, tofu and pork belly, and then stir-fry two small dishes. .
To say that the dishes are exquisite, the city is prosperous, and you can buy everything in the restaurant, but such dishes are not original, but the original things can better reflect the human touch.
Sure enough, as soon as Su Jin saw the quack goose that Yu Qingshan bought back, he smiled and said, "Fancheng goose is the most famous local food. You have been here not long ago, so you know a lot about all aspects!"
Yu Qingshan said with a smile: "Since you are here, you should understand, otherwise, you will be smeared. Unfortunately, I went late today and didn't buy shrimp. The shrimp here is also very famous."
Su Jin joked: "It's not a pity, we plan to stay for three days, so we can buy it tomorrow."
Yang Qing giggled, looked at Yu Qingshan and said, "Then you should go back to the city tomorrow morning."
Yu Qingshan smiled and nodded: "Well, it's early tomorrow."
Stewed goose in a large pot at night, accompanied by side dishes, four people sitting together, chatting and eating while eating, it was very pleasant.
The moonlight was very good at night, the wind was bright and the moon was clear, Su Jin took Qin Lang for a walk outside.
There are no reeds and ponds like Liuye Zhuang, but the manor here is built on a flat land halfway up the mountain, overlooking the large tracts of fertile fields below, with a wide field of vision.
The two found a place to sit down, Su Jin smiled and said, "If summer is here, you can see countless fireflies flying over the rice fields, it must be very beautiful!"
Su Jin also saw countless fireflies flying in the summer in Xiaohe Village, but of course, the location is better without this place.
This kind of beauty that has long been extinct in modern society is ubiquitous in the countryside at this time, and it is not surprising at all. The ancient ecological environment was good, and this kind of beautiful elves were able to thrive and live in peace.
It may not be seen in modern times, even if it is a normal sight now, Su Jin is still very interested, and he will be intoxicated and praised when he sees it.
As if to make up for the share that was missing in modern times.
Qin Lang didn't think there was any beauty in this, but his daughter-in-law said that beauty must be beauty.
He nodded very cooperatively: "Well, in the summer of next year, let's stay here for a few more days just in time to have the Qingshan couple as company, so we won't be bored."
"Well, good!"
The two looked at each other and smiled, Qin Lang's eyes were deep, the wind blew, and it was logical to take her into his arms and hug her tightly: "Don't catch a cold!"
Su Jin felt sweet in his heart, and curled his lips into his arms.
The next morning, after having a little breakfast, the four of them went up the mountain to pick mushrooms.
There is a mountain behind this farmhouse. Qin Lang brought a bow and arrow by the way to see if he could gain anything.
The mushrooms mentioned by Yang Qing grow in forests where birch, fir, maple, pine and other trees are mixed, and hide in the bushes and grasses under the trees.
Yang Qing followed the local villagers to find it twice, so she was obviously quite experienced.
After taking Su Jin with him, he picked a small half-basket.
If it is in the northeast, this is the season when all kinds of mushrooms are harvested, but in this area, there are indeed very few mushrooms picked in autumn.
The mushroom stem is slender and snow-white, and the mushroom umbrella is the size of a pigeon egg.
