Chapter 12: Wild Fun

Although the lid has not yet been lifted, the aroma of fish has already wafted out.

Su He sniffed, turned his head and asked Cheng Wei, "It's okay to smell?"

Cheng Wei, who had gradually gained a little confidence in Su Hehe's lunch during the cooking process, hit the bottom again in her unconfident inquiry.

Fortunately, when the lid was lifted, nothing catastrophic happened to the fish on the plate.

Cheng Wei put on heat-insulating gloves to bring out the fish, while Su He spread the sliced green and red pepper shreds and green onions on the fish, poured steamed fish soy sauce, and fried pepper oil in a frying spoon, and poured boiling oil on the fish with a vegetable spoon.

"It's okay to look at, and it's good to smell. Su He's tone this time was much more confident.

Cheng Wei nodded in agreement.

"Hurry up, let's go!" Su He said murderously with chopsticks, "But this fish is eaten first, and it won't taste good if it's cold!" After saying that, he took the lead with a chopstick and ran towards the belly of the fish with the most meat.

Seeing her like this, Cheng Wei also let go and followed closely behind unceremoniously.

The taste is unexpectedly good, delicious, delicate, salty and light, and not bad.

Because it tasted good, and they were really hungry, the two of them were silent, and they didn't even eat, and they ate several chopsticks in one go, and Su He finally opened his mouth, remembering to ask the guest's feelings, "How is it?"

"Very good. Cheng Wei was concise and to the point.

Su He thought for a while, put down his chopsticks, turned around and ran to the basement and turned out a bottle of white wine.

There are a lot of good wines at home, which are basically given by others, some to Su Jinghai and some to He Meijun. But since the two of them rarely stayed at home, the wine was just a pile of dust in the basement.

It took Su He some effort to open a bottle of wine. She rarely drinks these foreign wines, has little experience, and doesn't understand the rules and regulations.

A small glass was taken from the cupboard, and Sue poured a third of a glass of wine into it. Although I don't know the bird song on the bottle, the aroma that comes out of the wine when it is poured into the glass shows its excellent quality.

After bringing back a bottle of wine from Su He, Cheng Wei stopped her chopsticks and looked at her, saw her open the wine and pour the wine, sat down and took a shallow sip of the wine, squinted her eyes with great enjoyment and picked up a chopstick fish to eat, and finally couldn't help but ask with some surprise, "You still drink?"

"It's a good drink. Su He said and took another bite.

Sue He likes to drink small wine.

The so-called small wine is not much, only a small amount can be drunk, even if it is beer, it is the amount of one or two sips, and any more will be on the face. As for the liquor, take a small cup at a time and sip it little by little. One bottle of two-pot head can be drunk for two years.

After Sue and adult life alone, he developed a hobby of drinking wine.

Su He is actually not used to drinking wine, which is not in line with her civilian tastes. She prefers beer, and if she doesn't have it, she can do it with liquor like Erguotou.

Once, Su He's favorite thing was to moisten a little wine while eating, and by the way, he drank his favorite American dramas or online articles. Instant noodles can also be drunk with relish, and it is really a stinky and beautiful life of drunken dreams and death.

Now that her small body has not yet grown, the second pot head is not good, and it is not good to drink any beer, but wine is good for health, maybe you can take a few sips.

In fact, the biggest problem with all addictive things is not physical withdrawal, the key is that it is difficult to quit addiction.

When there is no other choice, the wine tastes good.

Looking at Cheng Wei, who had been looking at her, Su He deliberately teased him, "Do you want to come too?"

Cheng Wei thought about it for three seconds and nodded solemnly.

Although Su He's psychological age is old, he is born out of tune, and he doesn't have the slightest intention of caring for children and teenagers, since Cheng Wei wants to drink, she didn't talk nonsense and touched a small glass from the cupboard, and poured him a third of the cup.

Cheng Wei was not satisfied, and continued to bargain with a serious face, "It's too little." ”

"It's not good for kids to drink. "A reborn child's grandmother is serious and authentic.

Cheng Wei directly "used his way to give back to his body", "A little wine is appropriate." ”

Su He nodded in agreement, "Yes, the wine is appropriate." ”

She deliberately added an accent to the word "small".

Cheng Wei also pointed out seriously, "I'm older than you, so I should drink more than you." ”

Yo drink, the little classmate is a scoundrel.

However, Su He was a scoundrel than him, so he directly covered the wine cork and waved his hand, "It's just a year older, rounding up, it's gone." ”

Cheng Wei glared at her.

The glared at him bared his teeth.

Cheng Wei lowered his head and worked hard to eat fish, he is a man, he can't see like a woman, let alone do it.

The electric fan on the roof of the kitchen is turned to the lowest setting, the windows on the north and south sides are wide open, and the midday breeze gently passes through the new translucent screens, which not only makes the temperature of the room very pleasant, but also sends a unique smell of summer greenery.

Both of them had no taste for wine, and drank it very casually, and a third of the small glass of wine was gone in a blink of an eye.

Su He also played at a super level today, not only did the fish taste good, the vegetarian fried vegetables were crispy and delicious, and the egg flowers in the seaweed egg drop soup were also thrown off decently, and there were no mistakes.

The two basically didn't talk much, and their energy was focused on the food, Su He killed a full bowl of rice, and filled a small half bowl before it was done.

As for the rest of the meals and soup, they were all swept away by Cheng Wei domineeringly, and even the soup was mixed with rice and eaten, and there was nothing left. It also made Su He rare not to be bothered by leftovers.

After eating, Su He sat at the small dining table and drank tea. Cheng Wei wore an apron and gloves and stood on a custom-made low wooden counter to wash dishes.

It was naturally not Su He's intention to let the guests wash the dishes after eating, but Cheng Wei was embarrassed to eat and drink in vain, and insisted on washing the dishes and cleaning up the kitchen to pay for the meal. It's just that the first time I washed the dishes, I accidentally put too much dish soap, so I washed the dishes in a bubble bath with super rich foam, so that Cheng Wei had a clean habit and had to wash it with water four times before it was done.

When Cheng Wei packed everything up, the weather that was still sunny suddenly began to rain.

Although Houcheng in early July has not yet entered the flood season, the rain has been falling intermittently for two days.

Perhaps it was because of the rain that the frogs adapted well after the relocation and cried vigorously every night, adding a bit of wild fun to the quiet environment.

The wild plants in the yard grow surprisingly fast after the rain. A large number of weeds were uprooted during the renovation, and the remaining plants began to work hard to fill the vacated space, among which the mint was particularly ferocious, not only the branches and leaves became more and more black and fat, but also the stolons and underground rhizomes on the ground also spread violently and rapidly in all directions, expanding its territory almost at a speed visible to the naked eye.

This also made Su He realize that mint, which is a small and fresh herb, actually seems to be a very aggressive plant.

Su He welcomed its habit very much, not only because he likes to drink pure natural and pollution-free peppermint tea, but also because the illustrated book says that the spicy smell of peppermint has the effect of repelling mosquitoes.

In the backyard, the same mosquito repellent plant as mint is the moon amaranth, which is the nightshade of uncle's popular science. It turned out that Su He thought that its flowers were cute and fragrant, and the name was good, which reminded people of the old song of the same name so he left it, but he didn't expect its floral fragrance to have this effect.

I don't know if it's a psychological effect, but the combination of frogs, mint, and nightshade makes the recent mosquitoes seem to be a little bit less.

To Su He's surprise, the variety of wild plants in the yard is quite rich. In addition to the large number of weeds that were pulled out before, only the ones left, Su He has already known more than a dozen kinds of them according to the illustrated book, especially the uncle who has popularized science, and now she not only knows their common names in the local area, but also knows their scientific names and many aliases, as well as some of their functions.

In some folklore, names have a certain mystical power. Even after being reborn, Su He considers himself a staunch scientist. But it is undeniable that after knowing the names of these plants, they seem to be closer psychologically, and no longer simply regard them as weeds.

Suhe became interested in learning the names of plants.

However, no matter how close he is psychologically, Su He is still extremely far away from the realm of "animism", or "sweeping the floor without hurting the lives of ants, cherishing moths and gauze lamps". At the end of the day, she's a pragmatist.

After getting to know several kinds of wild vegetables in the yard, I will often pick some tender leaves to wash and wash the bar to make a plate of dipping pickles, freshly fried yellow and tender egg sauce, dipped in crisp and slightly bitter wild vegetables, and there is no need to make other dishes.

Many wild plants are medicinal herbs, and many medicinal herbs are wild vegetables.

For example, duck toe grass, one of the plants that Su He only knows, clears away heat and fire, detoxifies, and dilutes water, and can be used to treat sore throats, sores, poisonous snake bites and other diseases. At the same time, it is also a wild vegetable.

There is also the dog's tail flower, which is also a medicinal herb and wild vegetable. Its scientific name is actually red knotweed, a plant that appears very often in ancient poems and is often associated with loneliness and sadness.

For example, Bai Juyi's "wind lotus old leaves are depressed and green, and the water knotweed flowers are lonely and red." Liu Yuxi's "water knotweed, cold flowers, red clusters, and wet leaves of the river are green".

Because of the poetry, it is really difficult to associate a tall plant in Su He's imagination with the common name in reality.

But think about it again, it's a bit contrasting.

It is very interesting to read the plant illustrated book and Tang poems together, and the two reflect each other.

What Su and this lazy man like the most is that wild plants are full of wildness, and they don't need to care about it at all, as long as they are given a piece of land, there is sunlight and water, they can grow strong and bloom freely, and occasionally splash the remaining water from washing vegetables in the yard It is enough.

Most of the wild plants left in the yard are flowering. Some flowers bloomed as soon as the sky was bright, and when Su He slept enough and got up, they were about to wither, just like duck toe grass, Su He had seen some small fresh netizens later describe the petals of duck toe grass as the color of the morning light.
