Chapter 13: Open Land

The next day, Yu Fei was sent out, and Li Qin asked Aunt Ge to borrow a shovel and pickaxe, and was going to open two vegetable patches in front of the door. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 infoIt's only May 14 now, and there are still three months before the frost, so you can plant a crop of vegetables. When two people live their lives, they can't take a bite, so they go to Ge's house to ask for a bite. In the past, they thought that Yu Fei was their own nephew, and they just gave an extra bite of food, and they could help if they could. But now that she has her, she has to learn to live her little life and take care of Yu Fei.

Aunt Ge is very satisfied with her positive efforts, and the more she looks at her, the more pleasing it becomes.

"I heard that the Qi family has been asking for prey for five days?" Aunt Ge said while helping Li Qin plow the ground.

"Hmm. I don't know the price of this, but it's nice to look at these two little guys. ā€

"That's right. The hunting dogs of the Qi family are notoriously good. His male dog is a mastiff. Other people's female dogs want to breed with that mastiff, and the Qi family easily disagrees!"

No wonder five days of prey were exchanged for two pups. A good hound can stand alone against a vicious wolf. Four hounds, with the right coordination, can tear off a brown bear. If you look at it this way, they don't suffer.

The two of them ploughed the ground and pulled out the taller grass.

"Now I'm waiting for the soil. Aunt Ge said, "The grass and grass seeds that are cut out must be exposed to the sun for a day or two, and then we can loosen the soil, otherwise there will be a lot of weeds in the open field." Weeding can also take a lot of effort. ā€

"I thought I could plant it right away!" Li Qin was embarrassed.

"I have a little cabbage seeds, turnip seeds, and green onion seeds over there, and I'll bring them to you and plant them. ā€

Li Qin was very grateful, and sent Aunt Ge back to be busy, and he opened a small piece of land.

Clearing the ground is a manual job. It is not easy to dig out a usable piece of land on the ground that is originally full of weeds and stones. Without Aunt Ge's help, she was alone until Yu Fei came back, and she barely finished pulling out the tall grass in the field.

Yu Fei's body was still empty, but it also saved a lot of time. Just make an egg drop soup for a while, right? Li Qin thought to himself.

"Thank you. Yu Fei looked at the two pieces of land, and his face was unbearable. Then he looked left and right to see no one, and then pulled out a white, fluffy thing from his backpack.

"Lion's Mane Mushroom!" Li Qin never expected that Yu Fei would pick up a lion's mane mushroom bigger than her two fists!

Set the shovel aside, and reach out to take it.

Unexpectedly, as soon as his hand stretched out, he was grabbed by Yu Fei.

Li Qin was a little uncomfortable. In fact, since she finished talking to Yu Fei the day before the fight, he hasn't touched her in the past two days. The sudden touch at this time made her want to refuse, but she couldn't bear it.

"I—"

Without waiting for her to finish, Yu Fei held her right hand to the height of her chest with one hand, "Does it hurt?"

His voice was a little hoarse, or rather a little forbearing. Originally, Li Qin did it in one go, and he didn't realize that his hand was broken, but when Yu Fei asked him like this, he also felt a slight pain that couldn't help but spread from the palm of his hand to his entire body.

Yu Fei stuffed the lion's mane mushroom back into the bag with her other hand, held her right hand with both hands, raised it a little higher, and lowered her head and blew it gently.

His movements were serious and sincere, Li Qin couldn't say anything to refuse, and he couldn't withdraw his hand, so he could only let Yu Fei move, and his face became hotter and hotter.

After blowing for a while, Yu Fei raised his eyes and said, "Does it still hurt?"

Li Qin hurriedly retracted his hand, "It's already much better." ā€

Yu Fei didn't wrestle with her, and let her retract her hand. Then without saying a word, he went into the courtyard.

There were no animals to clean up, so Yu Fei first got up the fire at the bottom of the stove when he entered the house, and then went back and forth to fill up all the water in the house.

Li Qin didn't squeak when he saw Yu Fei, so he could only speak: "You've been tired for a day, let's rest for a while." I'll blanch the lion's mane mushroom for a while, and I'll make it tomorrow morning. Let's just throw a dumpling soup tonight, okay?"

After hearing this, Yu Fei just said "um" and went out.

Li Qin hurriedly took out the lion's mane mushroom, washed it carefully, and when the water boiled, he slice and blanched it.

Lion's mane mushroom is a rare mountain delicacy, and it is one of the famous dishes along with shark's fin, bear's paw, and bird's nest. As the saying goes, "I'd rather bear a thousand stone millet than bear monkey head soup." "That is, the rarity of lion's mane mushrooms. When she was in Beijing, she had also seen lion's mane mushrooms a few times, after all, the General's Mansion was extremely well-connected, and it was not surprising that there were monkey heads among the gifts. She had also learned how to make these high-quality ingredients from the cook, but if she had to eat them, it was only once. After all, whether it is the Earl's Mansion or the General's Mansion, there are always people above her, and it is difficult for her to eat such a good thing. The only time was when her brother gave it to her, but she couldn't refuse, so she barely ate it. But that umami taste is really evocative.

Although the monkey head that Yu Feicai came back was big, it was really dried, and it was only a few dollars, and he couldn't even get one or two. Besides, this thing is hard to come by, and I don't know how long it will take to save up to sell it once. And now there is indeed a shortage of food at home, no matter how short there is, there is no shortage of such stuttering, and treating yourself like this from eating. In that case, let's eat it. But in the deep mountains, there are really no materials available, so I can only blanch the water, cool it, and wait for it to be fried tomorrow morning.

Still, the water left over from this blanching is still useful. I'm going to make egg drop soup for a while, so why not use this water?

Li Qin took out the blanched lion's mane mushroom, took out a few slices and cut them into shreds, put them in the pot again, then added a little salt, and slowly boiled. Just wait for Aunt Ge to bring the rice for a while, and then they can serve the frangipani.

After being busy for a while, Li Qin suddenly found that Yu Fei didn't move at all. He doesn't have to pack up his prey now, what can he do?

Thinking of this, Li Qin got up and walked out of the house. I saw Yu Fei bending his waist and helping Li Qin clean up the artemisia grass on the ground that had just been opened.

This guy didn't say a word, it turned out that he came out to work.

It was hot, and he hung his shirt on the fence, his wheat-colored skin soaked in sweat, and under the sunlight, accompanied by resolute lines, he exuded a soft glow. I saw that he picked up a handful of tall grass at once, shook it twice, and the soil on it was thrown clean, much faster than Li Qin.

Li Qin raised his right hand to block the slightly dazzling sunset. Just before washing lion's mane mushrooms, she washed her hands first, and it was really painful. However, compared to the previous undignified life, this is a small pain, and she can bear it.
