Ayin said: "Next, there are courtship, love, vows, and farewells, and there are many, many songs of each!"

Li Junge said: "Then which song did you just sing?"

Ayin said: "I just sang "Bird's Nest Mouth", I'll sing it to you again in Chinese." ”

“

The best couple, best friends,

Meet on four legs, the moon sets and walks with your feet up,

Like a bird scattered on the edge of the nest, fly to the four directions,

The moon can't follow, don't follow the moon,

The moon can't follow, don't follow the moon

……”

The music is tactful and low, gentle and charming, and the indescribable lovesickness is indescribable.

After listening to this, Li Junge couldn't help but sigh: "It seems that when I submitted the intangible cultural heritage, my suggestions for the ancient songs of the Miao nationality were still narrow, and this You Fang song is not simple, which has the flavor of the Book of Songs." ”

Ayin said: "Where is the "Book of Songs" so elegant. ”

Li Junge said: "Whether to discipline Ya or not to discipline Ya is a matter of translation, the so-called 'three hundred poems, in a word, say: thinking is innocent', and the so-called 'Guan Ju, happy but not lewd, sad but not sad', this is the true nature of the Book of Poetry!"

After that, he groaned: "

A gentleman, a gentleman, a couple.

Gradually, the moon is coming.

The dry magpie is out of the hole, and the male and female are up.

Fortunately, Qingguang did not allow it.

”

Then he smiled at Ayin and said, "Ayin, are you tame?"

Ah Yin's heart was about to melt, his body was weak, he snuggled up to Li Junge's side, and muttered: "Erpi, you can actually translate this song like this!

Li Junge was secretly proud in his heart, although the buddy is not good at singing, but the buddy will get this!

The two snuggled up for a while and continued to move forward.

Li Junge said: "Ayin, what are you going to do with me for this half a day?"

Ayin said, "Find an ingredient, it's here." ”

Pointing forward, there was a huge tree in front of me, with very open branches and an extremely wide area, with hard oval leaves, and long pods hanging from it.

This Li Junge knew: "Ha, isn't this a soaphorn tree? I don't want to be too familiar with this, you are wrong, right? Isn't this thing used by you to wash your clothes and hair? It hasn't dried yet, has it?"

Ah Yin smiled: "It's just right now, we're here to pick soapcorn rice this time." ”

Li Junge was surprised: "Ah? This thing is really edible?"

Ayin said: "Yes, it's just for girls, you don't know it's normal, leather monkey, it's time for you to go up the tree!"

Li Junge laughed: "This tree is too big, and it really can't go up without a ladder, so let's use a bamboo pole to beat it." ”

I cut a bamboo pole from the forest next to me, and came to the tree to crackle and smoke.

After a while, Ayin picked up a basket and said repeatedly: "Enough, enough!"

Back at home, Ayin brought out a few jars.

One contained some amber lumps of material inside, bouncing to the touch.

Li Junge said: "This is a gum, right? A few years ago, when I made a fishing rod with Uncle Smith, I didn't have to toss a lot. ”

"This is peach gum taken from the peach tree, which is rich in collagen. It is also a medicinal herb, which can nourish the stomach and intestines, and at the same time has a curative effect on acne, acne, and pigmentation on the face. ”

Li Junge picked at the core of his head and said, "Then this thing is more valuable than gold in your hearts." ”

Ayin rolled her eyes and said: "It is the nature of our girls to love beauty, unlike you who wear shirts and shoes every day." And a smug and lazy look!"

Li Junge laughed and said: "I don't even like to wash my face, fishermen save more face oil for sunscreen!"

Ayin gave him a slap in the face: "You are so disgusting!

Ignoring Li Junge, he put the peach gum on with water, and then sent white fungus, lotus seeds, wolfberries, and red dates.

Li Junge peeled the soap corner next to him and pulled out the seeds inside one by one.

After Ah Yin finished dealing with the work in his hand, he came over to make soaphorn rice with Li Junge, and said while making it: "Soaphorn rice, also known as snow lotus seeds, has the effects of nourishing the heart and pulses, clearing the liver and eyes, strengthening the spleen and nourishing the kidneys, moisturizing the skin and nourishing the skin, etc., which is a good product for nourishing the beauty and calming the mind." ”

Li Junge said: "I really haven't heard of this. ”

"This thing is divided into single pods and double pods, the single pod is produced in Yunnan, and the double pod is produced on our side. ”

"Both are rich in collagen and are translucent when boiled, but the double pods are softer and glutinous, the soup is thicker and chewier, and the single pods are smoother, each with its own benefits. ”

Li Junge suddenly said: "That's almost the same as ginkgo biloba, isn't it?"

Ayin said: "Erpi, when it comes to eating, you really know a lot, soaphorn rice is really similar to the use of ginkgo seeds, you can stew chicken, stew pork ribs, boil porridge, and mix spoons." ”

"But it's the same as lotus seeds, it needs to be cored, and the core of the soaphorn rice hurts the kidneys and must be removed. ”

The two of them began to peel off the two pieces of soaphorn seeds and cored them.

After making the soapcorn rice, Ayin clapped his hands and said, "Okay, now go get peach gum." ”

Li Junge said strangely: "Isn't the peach gum all ready?"

Ayin said: "There are a lot of impurities such as bark dust on the peach gum, which must be cleaned up one by one. There are a few more water changes in between. ”

Li Junge sighed: "In order to be pretty, you girls are really not too troublesome. ”

Less than halfway through, Li Junge shouted: "This work is too detailed, I really can't do it, I'll tear the white fungus for you, and then go to see Mother Ni make fish." ”

After tearing the white fungus, he slipped into the kitchen and shouted: "Mother Ni, do you have anything to help with the cooking?" Yo, this fish hasn't been cut yet, or I'll cut the fish." ”

Mother Ni was mixing sour soup in the basin and said, "Then I won't treat you as a guest, do you know how to cut it off?"

Li Junge said: "Clearly, when you cut fish, many catties come from your back. That's right, right?"

Mother Ni smiled: "As soon as you hear it, you know how to eat." ”

Li Junge said again: "Ayin said that she was going to carry the extra smoked fish, and she had to carry it down the mountain, so I cut it all out?"

Mother Ni said: "This girl also wants to eat smoked fish and wants to get dizzy, just pickling fish will take seven days! ”

Li Junge fished out the carp and washed it, and said: "Why don't you teach me, and when you learn to make bacon this winter, I will also get a few by the way, lest she climb so high to carry it." ”

Ni's mother asked, "Erpi, how long have you known Ayin?"

Li Junge said casually: "I just met...... Ah no, I picked her up on the way last time she went to Lijiagou Village to be the head of the township...... Ah no, if you want to talk about it in detail, the first time I came to Hanging Heaven Village with Uncle Erhu, I should have seen it at that time. ”

The good guy almost said that he was bald, and he had to be judged by boyfriend and girlfriend, but he just met!

After speaking, he said: "But when I was a child, neither of us can remember." ”

Ni's mother said: "This girl in our family is a mountain baby, and she is used to being wild when she is a child, so you have to take more care of her in the future." She actually has a good temperament, and everyone in the village likes her. We don't have to worry about being small, although we don't understand the things she does, but since she was in college, she has supported herself every year by selling rattan seeds and taking scholarships, and it is not easy to send money to her family. ”

Li Junge said: "That's that, Ayin is capable, and he is doing a good job below, and he has set up a website to promote Li Jiagou, which has helped me a lot." My grandmother, my parents are also close to her. ”

After saying that, I was a little puzzled, what did this Ni's mother see?

The two chattered a lot, and Ni's mother had already adjusted the sour soup as she spoke.

The whole kitchen smells sour.

The sour soup of the Miao family is the same as the kimchi of the Han family under the mountain, which is a must-have for every family, but it is rare to do it well. Good sour soup is the same as kimchi water, it is an old thing that has been passed down for decades.

Li Junge's kimchi water is older than him, and the smell of Ayin's sour soup smells in his nose, and it is estimated that he will not be younger than her.

Miaojia sour soup is divided into two kinds of clear red, clear sour soup is to boil the rice water, pour it into the jar, add an appropriate amount of 'mother and child', that is, the old clear sour soup, and then add wild onions, wood ginger seeds to soak.

The new soup should be fermented for two to three days before it can be used, and new rice water should be added after each use in the future, and the old soup can be used 24 hours after adding rice water, and it can not be stained with oil like kimchi, otherwise it will change its taste.

The old sour soup is generally brought out from her mother's family when her daughter gets married, and then she adds it with use.

The red sour soup is to choose tomatoes with thin skin, preferably wild around the old house, wash and dry the water, put it in a jar, add a pound of salt to every ten catties of tomatoes, and take it after pickling for fifteen to twenty days.

Unlike clear sour soup, red sour soup will be so sour that it will be too sour to taste if it is soaked for too long.

The similarity is that, like sour soup, it must not be stained with oil, otherwise it will be corrupted.

The sour soup is fragrant and refreshing, the red sour soup has a mellow taste, and the Miao family makes sour soup fish, which is generally made by the same half of the two soups.

Mother Ni turned out a copper pot, put the fish in the pot, poured the prepared sour soup into it, and put it on the fire to simmer.

Li Junge was not idle here, picked up the small green pepper and skewered it with wire, put it on an open flame to burn, and then put the cooked small green pepper in the nest to make a sauce, which is commonly known as "glutinous sea pepper".

Mother Ni nodded from the side, it seems that this baby is no stranger to the Miao family's food.

The sour soup fish is not authentic, and a few things can be seen at a glance.

Cabbage, wood ginger seeds, coriander.

The cabbage is the tender stem of the taro, the taro grows in the water, and the bottom will not produce taro, but the stem is tender and delicious, and the stem of the taro is numb to the throat, and it can only be made into Miaojia sauerkraut, fried pork belly and the like.

Tear off the skin and slice the tender stem of the taro, and it is the cabbage.

The second is coriander, a perilla and mint-like herb with rough heart-shaped leaves, but the flavor is very unique, a bit like star anise. Just like picking the root of the ear from the wood ginger, the person who loves loves to the bone, and the person who hates it hates it so much.

Wood ginger tree is a kind of Lauraceae plant, the fruit is a small round ball type, the seeds inside are rich in oil, one fruit, with a specific and strong permeable aroma, is also a seedling medicine, can warm the qi to relieve pain.

Jiachuan is located in Qianxi, so the two condiments of coriander and wood ginger are also integrated into the local cuisine, which are the alternative seasonings of Jiachuan Liuhe bean curd rice for guests.

The sour soup boiled, Ni's mother beat off the foam, added the cabbage, a few small green peppers, ginger slices, and wood ginger seeds, boiled for five minutes, added refined salt, monosodium glutamate, pepper, and finally put in the uncut coriander and wild onion, and brought out the sour soup fish.

When I wrote this chapter, I checked the songs of my Miao compatriots, Lao Zhou only knew ancient songs and flying songs before, but when I saw this You Fang song, I was really amazed, so I wrote a song that I liked very much in private into the book, and also wrote my understanding and feelings into this chapter. I originally wanted to translate it into poetry, but it turned out to be poorly translated, so please understand it, and I hope you will continue to support it!
