Chapter Seventy-Seven: Camping and Cooking
When Chen Lianyue, Chen Tianmeng and Zhu Zi returned with a full load, Mother Liu and Chen Lianyun in the camp had already gained a lot.
As soon as he walked near the camp, the aroma of grilled fish came from afar, Chen Tianmeng took a few deep breaths of the aroma, and couldn't help but run towards the bonfire.
"It's so fragrant, Grandma Liu's grilled fish is so fragrant, can you eat it?"
"Hehe, not yet, I'll have to wait a little longer before I can eat."
Mother Liu, who heard the voice, turned her head to catch Chen Tianmeng who ran over, she raised her head and looked at Chen Lianyue and the pillar who came over with a smile.
"Miss, Zhu, you're back, it's really a lot of gain!"
"Yes, it's relatively remote and sparsely populated around here, so there's really a lot of prey."
Putting down the prey on his body, the pillar said a word to Liu's mother, then turned back to the carriage and took out a short knife, and picked up the prey and walked towards the river a little farther away.
"Mother, I'll go and clean up the prey first, Miss also picked a lot of mushrooms."
Seeing that the pillar had gone to clean up the prey, Luzhu and Hexiang hurriedly ran over to help. Even Chen Lianyun and Aunt Zhao came over and took the clothes bag from Chen Lianyue's hand, helped separate the fruits and mushrooms, and prepared to take them to the river to wash.
"Aunt Zhao, you can rest, help Mother Liu grill the fish here, and help me take care of Tianmeng by the way, I'll just go with my big sister to wash the mushrooms."
Afraid that Aunt Zhao, who had never exercised much, would be tired, Chen Lianyue hurriedly helped her sit by the fire and let her watch the grilled fish. With one hand and Chen Lianyun, and with the other hand, he took a bamboo basket and walked towards the nearby river.
Squat by the river. While washing fruits and mushrooms, Chen Lianyue looked at Chen Lianyun's face.
"What's wrong with me? Is there anything on my face? ”
Being inexplicably looked at by Chen Lianyue, Chen Lianyun hurriedly raised her hand and wiped her face.
"It's nothing, I just found that your complexion is much better now, and you don't have that lifeless feeling anymore."
With a smile, Chen Lianyue pulled down Chen Lianyun's hand to wipe her face.
"Yes, although it has been a bit hard to travel for the past three days, I feel more relaxed than ever. I love the feeling of being free, not inhibited, not painful, and I feel so happy now. Thank you. Third sister. ”
looked at Chen Lianyue sincerely. Chen Lianyun's eyes flashed with brilliance.
"Don't thank me, it's your own choice."
Smiling, Chen Lianyue turned her head to the side behind the tree.
"Come out, I've already found you."
"Haha. Mother. You've found out. ”
Chen Tianmeng suddenly jumped out from behind the tree. jumped to Chen Lianyue's side.
"Why did you come here, not to accompany Grandma Liu and Aunt Zhao."
Pulled Chen Tianmeng to prevent him from getting too close to the river, lest he accidentally fall into the water. Chen Lianyue asked softly.
"I'll get fruit for Grandma Liu and Aunt Zhao."
Reaching out to take two washed pears, Chen Tianmeng grimaced and ran away.
"This stinky boy!"
Smiling at Chen Lianyun, Chen Lianyue sped up the speed of cleaning the mushrooms in her hands.
Chen Lianyun looked at Chen Tianmeng's figure running away, and turned her head to look at Chen Lianyue with envy.
"Third sister, sometimes I really envy you for having such a lovely son. I, I probably won't have any children in my life. ”
"How can you say that, what you have to do now is to forget your old life and start over. In the future, you will eventually meet a man who suits you, and when the time comes, you will get married and have children, and you will also be happy. ”
patted Chen Lianyun's hand, Chen Lianyue looked at her, and both of them showed happy smiles.
"Grandma Liu, Aunt Zhao, this is the fruit I picked, it's delicious, you can taste it."
Holding the two washed pears he retrieved, Chen Tianmeng handed them to Mother Liu and Aunt Zhao one by one.
"Okay, we're so good."
looked at Chen Tianmeng with affection, Aunt Zhao took the pear and touched the top of Chen Tianmeng's plush head, the more she looked at Chen Tianmeng, the more she loved it.
Mother Liu, who was on the side, looked at them with a smile, and she was not idle flipping the grilled fish.
After a while, Zhu Zi and Chen Lianyue came back one after another, with Liu's mother here, these things were not wasted, and they were made into all kinds of delicious food.
Liu's mother asked everyone to eat some grilled fish to cushion their stomachs first, and then started to cook dinner. Because of the conditions, the main food was roast, and three hares and two pheasants were skewered on branches and placed by the fire.
The other two pheasants were taken by Chen Lianyue early, and she wrapped the chicken with a few half-withered lotus leaves scattered by the river, and then pasted some soil to make a chicken called Huahua and buried it under the fire.
The last pheasant was made into pheasant mushroom soup by Liu's mother and mushrooms, and the remaining mushrooms were also skewered and roasted with barbecue fat.
As the sky gradually darkened, bursts of aroma filled the tips of everyone's noses. The grilled fish that had just been eaten had already been digested, and everyone gathered around the fire to watch the food and swallow their saliva.
Pulling out the two hot mud cubes from under the fire, Chen Lianyue smashed it open with a stone, and suddenly a refreshing fragrance overwhelmed the aroma of the barbecue, and everyone's eyes suddenly shifted from the barbecue to the chicken.
Looking at the tender meat of the chicken, Chen Lianyue nodded with satisfaction, it seems that the craftsmanship has not regressed. In her previous life, she followed the third grandfather to make a chicken since she was a child, and the third grandfather said that the person he admired the most was Hong Qigong, and said that he also wanted to eat all the delicacies in the world.
"Alright, it's time for dinner."
With Chen Lianyue's shout, everyone cheered, and all hands came out together, and in a moment, the two chickens were separated.
"Mother, this chicken is delicious, you haven't made it for me before."
Eating a fat, tender, oily chicken thigh, Chen Tianmeng looked at Chen Lianyue without accusations.
"Stinky boy, I can't stop you if I eat it."
Pinching Chen Tianmeng's little nose, Chen Lianyue couldn't help laughing.
"It's called called Hua Chicken, which is a method I saw in a book, and I tried it for the first time, but I didn't expect it to taste good."
"It's really good, I think the method is very simple, this seasoning is not complete, and the taste is so good, and when I have time in the future, I will prepare the seasoning and make a taste for you."
After eating her own called Hua Chicken, Liu's mother said a little unsatisfied.
"Okay, I'm going to eat two chicken legs then."
Chen Tianmeng immediately raised his hand and shouted, and everyone was amused by him.
The roast rabbit and roast chicken also tasted good, and the crispy skin and juicy meat quality also won everyone's applause. The pheasant mushroom soup is also very sweet and refreshing, and after eating so much greasy barbecue, drinking a bowl of mushroom soup is simply not too refreshing.
To say that the environment is good in ancient times, there is no chemical fertilizer and no pollution, this thing is all green, and it tastes fragrant.
All the five pheasants, three hares, and a large pot of mushroom soup were all eaten up by everyone, and nothing was wasted. Chen Lianyue couldn't help but eat a little more, touched her bulging belly, everyone, look at me, I can't help laughing. (To be continued......)
