Chapter 164: Chen Jian's thoughts
As soon as I saw Xiao Qiang's expression, I knew that this thing shouldn't be poisonous, but what was it?
When I was a child, my family used to tell me that the brighter the color, the more toxic it was, and that little thing had several colors growing on the plant, and it was weird to look at.
Seeing that Xiao Qiang was so excited, I hurriedly stepped forward, picked up a red one in my hand, and looked at it carefully.
"What the hell is this, why are you so happy, this thing is really edible?"
"Of course you can eat it, and it's a good thing, have you ever heard of Caixing pepper?"
I shook my head, I hadn't heard of this thing, but his name was Caixing Pepper, and it was probably one of the peppers.
Chen Jian also hurriedly came over and looked at Xiao Wall: "Little sister-in-law, is this thing edible? I can take a bite at that time, if this is poisonous, then I'm afraid I'm going to be poisoned to death now." β
Xiao Qiang shook her head, smiled, took the little thing, broke it open, and stuffed it into her mouth.
After eating, there was satisfaction on my face.
"This thing is also a type of chili pepper, but it is an ornamental pepper, an excellent variety selected from the cherry pepper type, and it is highly resistant to diseases. β
"The height of the cultivated plant is 50~70 cm, and the height of the potted plant is 15~30 cm. The plant is short and compact, the plant width is small, the leaves are lanceolate, the fruit is small conical, the top of the fruit is upward, and it shows a rich color due to different maturity, including green, yellow-green, yellow, orange-yellow, orange-red. β
"The fruit is small and numerous, the ornamental value is extremely high, the sowing to the fruit maturity is about 180 days, the ornamental period is long, can be potted, flower beds and flower landscape ornamentation, can also be eaten, the fruit is spicy and sweet. β
"And this thing likes warmth, light, fertilizer and water, is not cold-tolerant, requires fertile sandy loam soil, and the suitable temperature for growth is 15~35 Β°C. The temperature of this desert island we are in now is very high, so it is very suitable for the growth of this kind of colorful star, but I didn't expect that there are so many surprises in this place, in addition to fruits, there are also so many peppers! Let's kill a short-legged bird tonight, how about I make you a delicious one?"
During this time, in addition to bird eggs and dried fish, we ate the most shell meat, as well as shrimp and crabs, and indeed we haven't eaten meat for a long time.
And I saw Xiao Qiang eating chili just now, he didn't seem to be afraid of spicy at all, and suddenly remembered that when he usually ordered food in the company, it was either boiled pork slices or spicy chicken, and he should also like spicy food very much.
Now with this chili, making a delicious dish is really satisfying.
Chen Jian stood aside and listened to Xiao Qiang's words, and nodded hurriedly: "Then let's do it, there are still four short-legged birds in my garden, today, let's kill our one first, and when Brother Sihai takes us out to find something, let's catch some more and make up for my one, but I will trouble my sister-in-law, you will be in charge of it yourself." β
Xiao Qiang listened to Chen Jian's words, nodded with a smile, and then entered the house, shouting for Chen Jian to go and clean up the short-legged bird, and instructed me to go and pick more of this pepper back.
And the grapes that Xu Wei picked up were all going to be made into wine, so Xu Wei was busy, and this time Wang Xiaoxiao and I went.
I picked a lot of mushrooms and wild vegetables, and I picked up these peppers with great emphasis.
In the evening, Xiao Qiang personally took charge of the spoon, made a big pot of chili peppers and fried wild birds, added sea salt, and put chili peppers, which was simply out of the pot but fragrant.
During the meal, Xiao Qiang also took out the wine that Xu Wei had made before, and we sat in front of the house to eat meat and drink, so happy, but Bai Wei and his gang were still miserable.
Chen Jian sneered: "They just don't want to go out to find food, then we can't help it, I asked a male colleague yesterday to help me chop some dry firewood to give him some bird eggs, he is too lazy to move, like them, if they don't starve to death, they will burn high incense." β
Liu Jiaojiao looked at Chen Jian and pushed him and muttered quietly: "You can talk less, eat quickly, go back in a while, I still think about using the tree to weave two more baskets, those short-legged birds always have a nest at night, I see that their habits are no different from chickens, only let them live well, can they lay more eggs." β
Chen Jian and Liu Jiaojiao are together, and the two seem very close.
I suddenly felt that bringing Liu Jiaojiao and Chen Jian together at that time could be regarded as a good thing.
After eating, Liu Jiaojiao went back to her tree house, saying that she was going to clean up her things, although we didn't have anything to clean up here.
But Liu Jiaojiao is a clean girl, I already knew.
Chen Jian stood next to me and followed me, looked at the stars in the sky, and said softly, "Brother Sihai, I have something to ask you." β
"Our brothers have lived and died together to this day, and we have experienced so much, if there is anything to say directly, where is there any need to ask for anything?"
Chen Jian sat up straight and looked at me, his face was very cautious: "I want to give Liu Jiaojiao a wedding." After all, I don't want him to follow me so innocently, now every day I see him next to me and he says me, laughs at me, I am so happy, I think in fact, sometimes life is not like this, as long as the person you love is around, it doesn't matter where it is. β
"That night he told me that his cousin got married when the scene was very grand, I think he must also want to have a wedding of his own, but you also know, we are now living on a desert island is so difficult, give him a bright wedding, I'm afraid it can't, but I always want to do something for him, I also know that without your help, I may have died a long time ago, I was so seriously injured at that time, or you and Bai Wei turned their faces to get me medicine, and took me to this day, I am very grateful to you for treating you as my own brother, so you see if you can help me about the wedding, I want you to be a witnessγ Witness the happiest time of my life?"
I never thought that Chen Jian's mind would be so delicate, after he said these words, the expression on his face was happy, and I was very empathetic to it.
Chen Jiandu wanted to give Liu Jiaojiao a wedding, but I had no way to give Xiao Qiang and Xu Wei an explanation.
Thinking about it this way, I really failed as a person.
But this matter is indeed a good thing, since Chen Jian mentioned it, I must find a way to help him, so I looked at Chen Jian and nodded.
"You put this matter aside for a while, I'll help you prepare here, four or five days, I'll always give you an explanation, and then we'll be on the top of this mountain, and our current camp will help you lively." β
Chen Jian listened to my words, struggled, and then gave me a big hug: "Brother Sihai, thank you very much." β
