Chapter 235: Snails are also a delicacy
With the departure of Li Shimin and his wife, Fang Jing couldn't cry and wipe his tears, and several other little babies in the family surrounded him, even if they gave Li Zhen some comfort to her little babies, only Qingque was a little man, if he wanted to cry, he could only cry behind his back, but he didn't dare to cry in front of so many people, which might be ridiculed by Fang Yuan.
After waiting for the three little babies to calm down, Fang Jing took them to the house, Xiong Er ran from its nest to the bamboo forest early in the morning, but he would not follow Fang Yuan and them, for Xiong Er, eating some bamboo shoots in the morning was more enjoyable than anything else.
Chen Erlin and his wife at home are cooking some gruel at this time, with boiled braised pork and sauerkraut, the taste can be said to be unstoppable, of course, if there are noodles, the taste is even better.
Lizhi and her two little sisters are no longer sad and sad, they are holding a bamboo bowl at this time, sitting on a chair and drinking gruel, sad energy, they have long disappeared with breakfast, born in the royal family, how many things can be sad and painful?
"Brother Jing, this sauerkraut tastes very good, I'm going to learn it one day." The big head has always known in his heart that when he becomes an adult, he will have to be separated from the family, although the building has been built a long time ago, but this has always been unhappy.
"Okay, you have time to learn from your aunt, there is no shame in learning anything from manhood." Fang Jing encouraged the big head to study, of course, in addition to the knowledge in the books, other things were also encouraged.
"Brother Jing, I also want to learn, I want to learn well, and cook for my father and mother." Lizhi held the bamboo bowl and said her thoughts to Fang Jing.
"Okay, if you want to learn, you can learn from your aunt, just make some sauerkraut, and you can also learn from your aunt and aunt, especially Xiaotuanzi, you are bigger than Lizhi, you know how to eat and eat." Fang Jing has always been a little big about the little girl, if she really gets married in the future, what can she do.
"Hmph, brother, you're lazy, why do you want me to learn." Fang Yuan didn't eat Fang Jing's set, he could block Fang Jing in the corner with one sentence.
"Then if you don't learn, if you get married in the future, I see if your in-laws will give you food." Fang Jing really hopes that this little girl can grow up quickly, and let Zhang Xiaoxia teach her some work, at least the operation of the family is handled by women, in this era of the Tang Dynasty, there is no room for a big man to do some housework, otherwise she will be ridiculed and sarcastic by many people.
"I'm not married, I'll be with my brother." Fang Yuan hugged his bamboo bowl, eating stewed pork and sauerkraut with gruel, his little eyes were almost gone, and he didn't forget to tell Fang Jing in his mouth that I wanted to be with my brother.
After Fang Jing heard this, she didn't know how to respond, maybe these years of dependence on each other made this little girl even more dependent on Fang Jing, although she is more than eight years old now, but who knows what will happen in another five years, ten years later, the little girl will eventually get married, and eventually have a family and have children, and the little girl will not be able to follow her for a lifetime.
"My brother knows that you are willing to follow my brother, but ...... Forget it, if I talk to you now, you won't listen, so eat well. "Fang Jing can't communicate with the little girl, so she can only wait a few years.
"Jing baby, you don't have to worry about anything, this girl, when she grows up to a certain age, she will naturally understand some things, and now Xiaotuanzi is still young." Zhang Xiaoxia was talking to the little girl on the side, which could be regarded as explaining something to Xiao Tuanzi.
"Okay, aunt, I know, I'll talk about it later." Fang Jing continued to drink the gruel with the bamboo bowl, no longer thinking about anything else.
After breakfast, Chen Erlin and his wife went to work in the fields again with farm tools, leaving Fang Jing and a bunch of little babies at home, Fang Jing came to the site of his own building, resisted the locomotive into the house and put it away, and demolished some tracks and carriages, and then did experiments when he was free.
Dachu took a group of little babies, wearing straw hats, and went to the small river not far away, probably not fishing for frogs, or catching loaches and yellow eels, which is also the favorite thing for the little babies in the village, of course, the livestock will also be led to eat some grass, and at noon, the livestock will be tied under the tree to avoid the sun.
"Cousin, there's a big one here, you can help me catch it." Fang Jing was wearing a straw hat, carrying a small bamboo stick in his hand, a basket, and of course, a hoe, walking towards the little baby and them, and heard Fang Yuan's voice from afar.
"Okay, little tuanzi, you stand there and don't move, don't scare it away." Dachu held a small bamboo strip in his hand, tied with a thin rope made of wild hemp, and tied two frog legs at the front end of the rope, which he shook in his hand to lure the frog to bite.
"Rub" Dachu took the frog that Fang Yuan shouted to help catch just now, and after catching it, he caught it with a burlap bag, and this technique was like a smooth flow.
"Cousin, mine, mine." Fang Yuan was in a hurry on the side, seeing that Da Chu had caught the big frog, he would grab Da Chu's burlap bag, and he had to say that it was his own.
"Here, little tuanzi, don't let it run away." When he first arrived, he didn't care, so he caught the big frog that had just been caught from the burlap bag and put it in Fang Yuan's burlap bag.
"What are you doing here? Be careful when fishing for frogs, but don't let the snake bite you. Fang Jing walked over and said to this group of little babies.
"Cousin, we know."
"Brother Jing, we know."
"Brother, look, this frog is very big, I saw it." Fang Yuan carried a burlap bag and handed it to Fang Jing to take a look, with excitement on his face, not to mention that Da Chu helped her fish.
Fang Jing didn't bother to pay attention to this little girl, she passed by her directly, and walked towards the river, Fang Jing wanted to see if she could get some snails, or river mussels or something, you can fry and eat them at noon or night, and solve this slander.
Fang Yuan looked at Fang Jing and ignored her, he didn't pay attention to Fang Jing with his breath, and continued to follow them to catch frogs at the beginning of the year, anyway, if you ignore me, I won't ignore you.
Fang Jing came to the beach by the river, took off his shirt, went down to the water of the river, sank his hands, and began to grope along the river, Fang Jing didn't want to catch fish, anyway, there were quite a lot of fish in this river, Fang Jing's family would also eat a meal of fish in two days, either Fang Jing occasionally caught a few, or it was the fish basket set that Dachu made himself, anyway, there was no shortage of fish to eat at home.
Fang Jing actually sometimes misses eating a fried snail, cut off some of the snail's buttocks, after stir-frying, add soy sauce and wine to stir-fry, and then stew for a quarter of an hour or two, 'instigated', the snail meat can enter the mouth, of course, if you add some chili, of course, the taste will be better.
In fact, this snail river mussel itself contains a lot of parasites, and it takes high spicy wine and high temperature to kill these parasites, even if the snail is raised at home for a month, the snail will still contain a lot of parasites.
Snails, belong to mollusks, some places will be called snails, and snails and many species, of course, snails, because snails are mainly in paddy fields, ponds, streams and ditches, or large and small rivers, mainly round snails and stone snails, snails will parasitize all kinds of parasites in the body, bloodsucking insects and leeches are the most common parasites, after the bloodsucking worms invade the body, the light ones are weak, the heavy ones die, and the leeches don't need to explain too much.
Fang Jing touched all the way upstream of the small river, and in less than a quarter of an hour, there was already half a basket of snails, big and big, small snails Fang Jing basically wouldn't pick them up to eat, not to mention that there were big ones, who would pick up small ones, if they wanted meat or not, it would be troublesome to eat.
Fang Jing continued to touch the snails, and went back after a basket full, there are so many little babies in this family, it is estimated that this half basket is not enough for the family to eat.
After Da Chu and Datou took the little babies to fish for frogs, they went home, and when Fang Jing looked up in the small river and looked around, they were all gone.
Fang Jing walked home with a basket of snails, the hoe was all for nothing, originally I only wanted to see some holes, dig it, maybe I can find something special.
After Fang Jing returned home, she didn't find any children at home, and she didn't know what Da Chu was doing with them, so she probably went to play with the big banyan tree.
Pour the snails into a bucket and raise them with water, add some salt and oil, and let them clear the mud and sand from their shells and spit out the dirt in their bodies.
Freshwater snails basically need to quickly deal with the sediment in the snail's body, add some salt into it, so that the water is a little salty, so that the snail can quickly spit out sediment, pouring oil is actually to eliminate oxygen, so that the oxygen in the water is reduced, and the snail can not breathe oxygen, and can only absorb oxygen from the water, which makes the snail quickly spit out sediment, of course, this process needs to be repeated several times, so that there is no sediment in the water.
When the snail mud and sand were almost vomited, Fang Jing carried the bucket to the ditch, cleaned it repeatedly, and scrubbed the snail case by the way, of course, by the way, cut off the snail's buttocks, and stir-fried the snails at noon, thinking it was a delicious food.
The noon dish is in charge of Fang Jing, Zhang Xiaoxia is not very good at making this stir-fried snail, not to mention that this stir-fried snail Fang Jing is not at ease to hand over to Zhang Xiaoxia to do, according to Zhang Xiaoxia's temperament, less oil and less salt is certain, it turns out that the poor can't eat, in order to save, saving a little is a little habit, and now there is no need to save, but Zhang Xiaoxia will also have less salt and less oil.
Came to the hall with a few large plates of fried snails, in addition to fried snails, there were also a few delicious side dishes, which was considered a noon meal.
"Brother Jing, this snail is not shelled, we can't eat it, we don't have good teeth like Xiong Er." Lizhi looked at the fried snails that were served, and began to doubt the dishes that Fang Jing cooked.
"Lizhi, you haven't eaten it yet, why don't you say you can't eat it, this is called fried snails, it's delicious, we've eaten it before, you can taste it later." Fang Yuan looked at the fried snails on the table, and when he reached out to get one, he was beaten by Fang Jing, and stood on the edge of the table with a pouting mouth and looked at Fang Jing.
"The rules are gone? Uncle and aunt haven't come yet, so you dare to reach out and grab the vegetables to eat? Fang Jing stared at this little girl, criticizing and educating.
"Brother, I just haven't eaten fried snails for a long time." Fang Yuan knew that he had done something wrong, so he hurriedly lowered his head and admitted his mistake.
"Eat later, you have to have rules, without rules, no one else will like you." Although Fang Jing knew that there was no need to talk too much about the rules at home, there was still an order for the young and the old.
Fang Jing didn't pay attention to this little girl anymore, the longer she grew, the more unruly she became, returned to the stove room, and returned to the hall with other meals.
It didn't take long for Chen Erlin and his wife to come back, clean up, come to the hall, and after sitting down, Fang Jing shouted that they had made some fruit brew at the beginning of the year, and shouted to start eating.
