Chapter 41 Picking water chestnuts and eating raw shrimp
Looking at the bamboo building rising from the ground in front of him.*** Zhang Niu was excited in his heart, although he did not participate in the construction by himself. However, it is undeniable that this bamboo building was built on contracted land.
After the end of work. Brother Ma cheekily took home the leftover plum wine he drank last night in Zhang Niu. It's nice to say, but it's actually for yourself to go home and enjoy.
Brother Ma, who took away the plum wine, drove away in a tool cart. Wait for someone to go * after the light. Zhang Niu walked up the bamboo ladder by himself. Standing in front of the bamboo fence, right in front of the pond in front of you. It seems that it is much better to build here than on that open field. Sure enough, the vision is good. Wait for spring to plant spring willows. When the catkins are fluttering in the wind. It's a flying scene.
It took a week in a row. Thousands of pounds of bamboo. Three adjoining bamboo towers stand by the pond. Look from afar. It's like a small cottage in the city.
The three bamboo buildings cost nearly 30,000 yuan. It also includes some materials such as moso bamboo. Brother Ma is easy to discuss. I said I wanted to cut some off. Just prepare a few extra bottles of plum wine. Zhang Niu rolled his eyes when he heard this, this guy seems to be addicted. The skin is really thick. Brother Ma smiled.
The bamboo building was built. Zhang Niu ran to another village. I bought a dozen bamboo beds. The bamboo building with the bamboo bed is really good, it is a pair. The newly built bamboo building also smells fresh of bamboo. Open all doors and windows. Ventilation. It should be a few days before people can move in.
Zhang Niu who was resting in the afternoon. woke up to the crisp laughter, it turned out that the little sister was teasing "little bit".
"Brother, why do we have more little black dogs?" Tilting his head, he asked.
"Niu Niu. Like no. How about asking Xiao Hei to accompany you often in the future. Zhang Niu said shamelessly.
The little sister shook her hand. "Oh no, I still like to be small."
Since the first time I saw "Little Dot". The little sister and the little one are easy to see. Tired of being together all day. It's not to tease the little turtle or to bully the wild boar cubs together. As long as the little sister comes. The wild boar cubs in the family will run out. The turtle also slipped back to the small pool. The whole little witch looks.
"Brother, are you free today? Niu Niu wants to pick water chestnuts. May I. He looked at Zhang Niu pitifully.
Scraped the tip of the little sister's nose. "You're gluttonous. No wonder you're here today. It turned out that I wanted to eat water chestnut.
"Bad brother, it's not."
My brother is fine today. How about helping you pick water chestnuts, then you have to thank your brother,"
threw himself into Zhang Niu's arms. Incense.
Go to the back room and take out a plastic washbasin. When the time comes, it is better to put it in the water and fill it with water. The basin will not sink down. Pull the little sister. Call "King Kong" and kill them together in Shuilingtang.
At this time of autumn, water chestnut is also ripe in large quantities. The little furry children in the village will find a bamboo pole. Tie a thick wire to the rod head. Standing on the shore can pull out the whole pu. Generally, the pond of water chestnut is seven or eight meters deep. And there are a lot of water and grass in it. So I'm afraid that the children will drown. The family has been admonishing. If you want to eat, you can only use a bamboo pole to catch some of it.
There are many types of water chestnut, generally red water chestnut, green water chestnut, two-angle water chestnut, and four-angle water chestnut. On Zhang Niu's side, most of them are four-cornered water chestnuts. The corners of each fork at each end. Eating more water chestnut can replenish the spleen and stomach, strengthen strength and nourish qi. The most important thing is that you won't gain weight by eating more. Zhang Niu still prefers to eat it raw. Brittle. Or stir-fried diced pork is also a good choice.
The barren ponds outside the village will breed a lot of water chestnuts. The water surface of the small pond has been covered with pale green water rhombic leaves. There is no gap, so there are no fish in these ponds at all. Some are also some such as white-eyed ding. Triangle fish. Wait for some small wild fish. Big fish go back to hypoxia when the weather is bad. If there is no gap for them to surface, they will simmer to death.
Zhang Niu chose a pond that runs into the village. When I came, there were already a lot of children fishing for water chestnuts, and there were also people in the center of the pond who rowed into the water with inflated tires and kept grabbing water chestnut leaves with their hands. It seems that the iron basin on the tires has been loaded quite a bit.
Zhang Niu is ready to go into the water to pick. That's how it can be efficient. Take off your pants. handed it to the little sister and said, "Keep your pants in jail." Don't lose it" and walked down the pond.
Carry a thick bamboo pole into the water. This pond is steep and lined. The edge of the pond is very slippery, so prepare a bamboo pole to support it. Usually not needed. Just be careful.
The outer ring is basically for children to fish. They catch it and eat it raw. I don't take it home either. If you have time, you will go here to fish for water chestnuts. It just so happens that today is Saturday.
When I went into the water at noon, I still felt cold. Probably because of the water rhombic leaves. Turn up the water water water chestnut leaves, and there will be a few water water chestnuts hanging under the leaves, tender green. The ripe water ling knocked it down with his fingers, and the tender water ling pressed it to convex down.
The fork horns at both ends of the raw water rhomb. It's not hard. It will be so hard when cooked. Zhang Niu broke the sharp horns of both ends with his hands. Break the water water again. The tender white flesh is revealed. Put it in your mouth. It tastes crunchy and raw. It's a little astringent.
Now Zhang Niu has walked into waist-deep water. From time to time, the aquatic plants below will become entangled. If you're not careful, you'll pounce on the water. The further you go inside, the bigger the water lingpu below is. The fruit is thick. When you cook it, you won't eat a fluffy lump.
Zhang Niu, who was still cold in the water, rummaged for a while to find Shui Ling. Gradually, a sense of heat appeared on the body, and the warmth made people comfortable.
The sun is high. The temperature also rose, and there were more people in the village who came to pick water lings. There were only a few people just now, but now they can all be made into a mahjong table.
"Zhang Niu Nawa, how is it picking?"
When he looked up, it turned out that Fusheng, who was picking water chestnuts in the middle of the water, was not far in front of him.
"It's okay, not as much as you. I guess it's okay to pick a basket. He replied with a haha.
"You pick more. I went up first. After sitting on it for a long time, my waist feels a little numb," he paddled his tires towards the shore. Look at the water in the basin, there are at least twenty catties! It seems that I have gained a lot.
There is one less person, Zhang Niu is also picking smoothly in the innermost, and there is already a small half basin in the basin. If you pick some more, you can probably eat enough. This water ling was only delicious after being boiled a few times. The taste in the back is not good,
When turning over another pu's water chestnut leaves, a transparent pond shrimp popped out of the water. Two small pliers pinched Zhang Niu's fingers. It seems to disturb the rest of this benevolent brother.
The attack of the pond shrimp is a drizzle against Zhang Niu. Grab the pond shrimp in your hand with a light grab. Boy. It's pretty big, the thickness of a thumb. Look at the appetite straightened. Eating raw pond shrimp is a small thing for Zhang Niu, who grew up in this village. The child had never eaten it when he was young, let alone the bold enough to swallow the small loach raw.
Grab the head of the shrimp and peel off the armor of the river shrimp from the tail of the shrimp. Verse by verse. Peel it all the way to the gap near the head. The transparent shrimp meat is presented in front of Zhang Niu. Take a bite of it. A faint flesh-colored smell appears in the mouth. After the fishy smell, there is a hint of sweetness.
Eat the rest in two bites. In the end, a shrimp head was left for Zhang Niu to throw away. The corners of his mouth were added. If you add some soy sauce, it will taste even fresher.
