Chapter 199: Going Out
In the north, it is customary to use rhubarb rice to make zongzi, but the zongzi made from rhubarb rice are always a little loose and even stick to the reed leaves. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info But Li Qin's zongzi, each of them is solid, after peeling off the reed leaves, it will not be scattered at all, it is not wasted at all, and it is full of elasticity, stained with some sugar to eat, fragrant and springy, and has a long aftertaste. So Li Qin naturally lived up to expectations, and there was no one who didn't give a thumbs up after everyone finished eating. There are even many families who don't have enough to eat, and they pay extra to buy more.
Li Qin counted it again, and then went home and got it again. Simply she uses different knots for each filling, so it's easy to distinguish after wrapping. Some people asked for a kind of stuffing, and after eating it, it seemed to be more delicious to see that it was someone else's, so they asked for someone else's kind against, so later, almost everyone ate three or four zongzi, and even some children ate two or three.
Of course, not all of Li Qin's zongzi are popular. Li Qin is a southerner, and he likes to eat salted meat when eating zongzi, so he wrapped a lot of salted bacon. She ate it herself with relish, and Yu Fei was also a carnivore, so the two of them almost didn't touch other fillings, and they ate several large meat dumplings by themselves. When others saw it, they naturally wanted to try it, and Li Qin was also afraid that they would not be used to it, so he made some small pieces for them to try. As a result, everyone almost didn't like to eat, and they all said that Li Qin was wasting food.
Regardless of whether it is wasted or not, anyway, this Dragon Boat Festival, Li Qin did not go out of the mountain, so he made a small profit. Aunt Ge was a little pity, and bluntly said that if she was in the town, the eldest of his family might make a fortune from it.
Everyone was lively at Qi's house until it was dark before going back. And what Li Qin brought back was the money everyone gave and a list of things to buy.
Early the next morning, Li Qin, Yu Fei and Uncle Yu went out of the mountain together.
Uncle Yu took care of Li Qin a lot in his previous life, and he had the benevolence of a doctor, and he always treated Yu Fei well. In the mountains, when others find Uncle Yu to see a doctor, they will basically be paid more generously, but when he comes to Yu Fei, I am afraid that sometimes he will not even accept a pheasant. So Li Qin didn't hide his selfishness, and brought a lot of food before going out of the mountain. There are dumplings with various fillings left over from the day before, sesame candy cakes that are baked in the morning, wormwood boiled eggs left over from Duanyang, and a small jar of sugar, garlic and ginger pickled by Li Qin.
The three of them brought nearly twenty hounds, and this team can be described as "mighty". And with the hounds, Yu Fei could even take a step ahead of them and take some of the hounds to hunt some small things, while Uncle Yu and Li Qin walked out slowly.
I usually go out of the mountain, and I am more or less in a hurry. But it was pleasant to walk freely in the shade of the trees in the middle of the day.
The woods were full of unknown flowers, and Uncle Yu wanted to have a common topic with Li Qin, so he told her some pharmacological knowledge in the mountains. Which fruits are used to treat snake venom, which herbs are used to treat bee venom and mosquito bites, and which bark is used to treat skin inflammation are all common knowledge in the mountains. Li Qin also knew some in the past, but after Uncle Yu's explanation, he still benefited a lot.
"I think you're a good kid with the energy to learn. Uncle Yu nodded incessantly. The journey was long, and he also talked about what happened to the Qi family before.
This person must not have a bad heart. If people's hearts are crooked, this life will also be crooked! No matter why Lao Qi and his family don't enter the mountain now, or else, my daughter, alas!"
Li Qin didn't quite understand what Uncle Yu sighed about, but thinking of the accident between Aunt Ge and the Qi family, Sister-in-law Qi pulled the shelf, and hated Uncle Yu so much that she knelt down to make amends to Aunt Ge, and felt that Uncle Yu was still an upright person in his heart, at least, helping people and not helping relatives, which is the most rare.
Li Qin's respect for the old man can also be felt by him, plus he has always liked Yu Fei's honest temperament and Li Qin's studious appearance, but along the way, he talked endlessly. After eating all kinds of food that Li Qin made in a different way, he felt even more satisfied.
It's a long time now, and even if you walk a little slowly, the sun is just about to set when you get to Sanlitun. The sunset will not come out, and the mountain side will be red!
At this time, the outside was brighter than the house, so when Li Qin and the others entered the courtyard, they saw Hu Yuan and his family eating on the grinding plate outside. Sorghum rice with stir-fried cabbage, cold radish shreds, and a lock of green onion dipping sauce, full of local style.
Seeing Yu Fei and them coming, Hu Dingshi immediately stood up, "Ouch, why are you back at this time? You haven't eaten yet, are you? Sit, sit down! I'll scramble eggs again!"
Hu Yuan also quickly stood up, "Uncle Yu is also here, sit down! Why did you come here at this time?"
Uncle Yu was also very happy to see the enthusiasm of the couple, and immediately sat down next to the grinding plate. "That's right, before Xiaofei went into the mountains and said that you want to form a team to carry work in the village, we mountain people came out to hire you. ”
"This-" Hu Yuan's originally enthusiastic face suddenly stiffened, "Well, this-"
"Is there something wrong?" asked Li Qin.
Hu Yuan looked at everyone's shining eyes, a little embarrassed, and scratched his head, "It's not -- alas—in fact, I had such an idea before, and there are quite a few people in the village who think it's good and want to do it with me." Haven't you been busy farming before, and this matter has been dragging on, and now you haven't done it yet!"
The people in the mountains were originally very good, but they didn't expect to come out, and they were so ineffective when they arrived at Hu Yuan's side. Li Qin couldn't help but be anxious, "Then big brother, how many people want to do it with you?"
Hu Yuan thought for a moment, "There are almost ten or eight." ”
It's good if someone wants to do it.
Li Qin said: "We people in the mountains want to go into the mountains for a long time, that is, people who can enter the mountains once every half a month or once a month, send us some rice and grain and other necessities, and then send what we need to sell to the designated place to sell." This time and again, we will give money according to the type and weight of the goods, and then there will be people and more than 20 hunting dogs to escort you in and out, big brother, look, can you help us run once in a while? And we have hounds, and we can help hunt pheasants and hares on the way, what do you think?"
Of course, Hu Yuan is very tempted, he can only earn twenty or thirty yuan a day by going to the town to work as a casual worker, if he can have such a job once in half a month or a month, it is still fixed, and everyone should be able to agree at that time.
"Well, I really want to do this. Hu Yuan hesitated a little and said, "Or, I'll go door to door and ask in a while to see if they want to do it together?"
