Chapter Seventy-Six: Gourmet Ants

Zhao Xiaochun was very sensitive to the fact that her brother and Liu Peiyu were getting closer and closer, she was very helpless, and even helplessness could only be put in her heart and could not show it. As a younger sister, her brother has someone she likes, and she should be happy to be a younger sister, but the problem is that in her heart, her brother is no longer a simple brother, and her brother has become her sweetheart. Xiaochun's every move of his brother was silently watched.

Brother Zhao Xiaodong will come to see her later, Xiaochun wants to cook a good dish to entertain her brother. But now there is nothing good, and even eating enough is a problem. She searched her stomach and finally came up with a dish, which had to be unique, and it had to be made locally, so that the raw materials for cooking could be easily obtained. Finally, she thought of the dish that a minority in my country used white ants and ant eggs to stew bamboo shoot tips. These two raw materials are not difficult to find in this primeval forest, Zhao Xiaochun originally wanted Qian Huanhuan to accompany her, because Qian Huanhuan fainted a few days ago, and her body was still a little uncomfortable, and she was usually afraid of small insects like ants.

It's still this Wang Yueyue, she just came back from outside, and she heard that Sister Xiaochun was going to get some termite eggs to make a dish. She felt like it was something new, she had never seen ants cooking. She shouted that she also wanted to go with Sister Xiaochun, Xiaochun couldn't ask for it, it was always a good thing to have a companion. Yueyue walked halfway but hesitated, because someone was bitten by poisonous ants a few days ago, and her whole body was red and swollen, and she was extremely itchy, and she died after a few days.

This time, Sister Xiaochun was very sure, she could see Yueyue's hesitant thoughts: "Yueyue, are you a little afraid of poisonous ants?" In fact, there are not many poisonous ants in the ant race, especially the lethal poisonous ants, most of the ants can not only eat, but also not lazy nutrition." Yueyue was still skeptical, this guy was both curious and scared, so he had to hide behind Sister Xiaochun and walk cautiously.

Zhao Xiaochun has some experience in this area, in addition to book knowledge, she also participated in a wilderness survival training, she is sure that this thing can not only be eaten, but also rich in protein, and it is estimated that the taste is also good. After a while, Zhao Xiaochun found a large ant nest in the middle of a tree and a small stone. The stone was not big, but it didn't move as if it had taken root, and it didn't come to help. Zhao Xiaochun spent a lot of effort to use all the strength to eat, and finally loosened, wow, a litter of termite larvae swayed there, crystal clear, like a big piece of Hetian jade, and there was a bunch of termite eggs the size of rice grains next to the larvae. Sister Xiaochun didn't know how to start, and Yueyue took three steps back. There's no way, she's really tempted to make this dish. Zhao Xiaochun calmed down, stubbornly put the termite larvae hugged together into the tea jar, and grabbed a handful of termite eggs on the side, and then closed the lid, and the two of them went back in this way. As I walked, my heart was still worried. On the way back, Xiaochun got some bamboo shoot tips, Xiaochun deliberately gave the tea jar containing termites to Yueyue, and Yueyue took a handful of bamboo shoot tips from Sister Xiaochun's hand and ran away. Yueyue thought, she didn't want to eat any ant meals.

Zhao Xiaochun began to light a fire to burn this termite stewed bamboo shoots dish, and as soon as she lit the fire, the smoke choked her with tears. At this time, Zhao Xiaodong happened to come over. "Sister, what are you cooking? It's smoky, hehe", Zhao Xiaodong said hello to his sister. Liu Peiyu, who followed her brother like a fart, also came to join in the fun: "Sister Xiaochun, I'll also taste your craftsmanship in a while, Ha Luha." Xiaochun said happily: "I won't tell you what to cook for the time being, I don't know if you dare to eat it, hehehe." Liu Peiyu thought to herself, as long as you can burn it out, I will dare." At this time, the water in the steel helmet was already boiling, Zhao Xiaochun saw a bush of wild garlic in the soil next to him, dug it out with local materials, cleaned it and put it into boiling water, and put the termite larvae, insect eggs and tender bamboo shoot tips together. After a while, there was a strange smell that I had never asked before.

When you smell the fragrance of the bamboo shoots, the dish is ready. The color is beautiful, with tender green bamboo shoot tips, yellow and white termite larvae and insect eggs, like pieces of ancient jade. When that peerless dish was placed in front of everyone, no one dared to taste it first. After hesitating for a long time, Liu Peiyu tasted it first, ah, it was very delicious, there was a soft feeling on the tongue, it was indescribably delicious, Liu Peiyu smacked her lips with her eyes slightly closed and said: "Well, it's delicious, it's delicious, this thing is only in the sky, hehe." After that, he passed the chopsticks to Captain Zhao, Xiaochun snatched the pair of chopsticks and said, "I'll taste them first, brother, I'll give you after I finish tasting them." In fact, she is still a little uneasy, her brother is now an important person, and he is the backbone of these people, so there can be no accidents. Although she knew that there was no great danger with this thing. "Well, it's really good, fresh, it's really fresh", she felt relieved, so she handed the chopsticks to her brother.

"Hahaha, you two are gluttonous cats, I want to try it", Head Zhao saw that these two girls were scrambling for the first place, but they actually took a lot of courage, they were all thinking about my comfort, which is commendable. He took a chopstick and put it in his mouth, and it melted in his mouth, leaving an aftertaste between his lips and teeth. Zhao Xiaodong ate three bites in a row before putting down his chopsticks. He is very grateful to this sister in his heart, and he is also grateful to Liu Peiyu, the little guy, who has been in a bad mood for several days, and has been following him every day like a fart, and he understands her intentions. Both are good girls, and the other is a childhood sweetheart, and he feels that Xiaochun's love for him has long gone far beyond the love of brother and sister. Peiyu is really a lovely girl, in her, Zhao Xiaodong found a feeling, that night holding her soft body, surrounded by a kind of sweetness and happiness, a strong budding rush against his heart, not to mention that he touched her body in a daze a few days ago. What to do? You can't marry both, can you? He also knew that some of the officers in the upper echelons of the Dao had two or three wives, but he didn't want to do that.

Zhao Xiaodong glanced at his sister and found that he had lost weight significantly in the past few days. Now the situation is very bad, not to mention being full, it is very difficult to eat a little bit every day to maintain a minimum physical exertion. When his eyes shifted to Liu Peiyu, he suddenly remembered that there was a big lake not far from where the monkeys were fighting, and there must be fish in this lake, and catching fish was the master's skill. "Hehe", Zhao Xiaodong smiled, Xiaochun and Peiyu looked at him suspiciously, not knowing what he was thinking.
