Chapter 296: I'm going to borrow some food again

Cooking, frying, frying, frying, roasting, steaming, fumigation, Wu Hongsheng did all these ten cooking methods.

He felt to himself that the locusts were extremely tasty, no matter which way they were made.

Thinking of those delicious locusts, Wu Hongsheng, who had long been accustomed to eating them, unconsciously swallowed a mouthful of saliva in his mouth.

When he ate locusts for the first time, Wu Hongsheng still had a little scruple in his heart.

In normal times, who would take it as a staple food?

Is it good for the body to eat these things? He himself didn't know.

However, his daughter-in-law told him repeatedly. Say that locusts also eat plants. Locusts are also meat.

What else to say, when wheat and rice are not hulled, they are all one by one.

After this grain of wheat and rice is cooked, it becomes a hearty meal in people's mouths.

Those locusts, one by one.

When a small amount accumulates, won't the flesh of locusts increase?

Moreover, the taste of locusts is more fragrant than chicken and crispier than chicken. The taste is particularly good. Plus, it's also nutritious. Many large families like to eat it.

When Wu Hongsheng was in the past, he traveled south and north. He had also heard of the wealthy in some places, who liked to eat snakes, insects, rats and ants.

Take the snake, for example.

They like to eat stewed snake soup.

Said that those things are delicious and fragrant.

Another example, insects.

Termites, scorpions, locusts, frogs, bean worms, cabbage worms,...... They all love to eat.

As for the rats,...... Wu Hongsheng had heard of it before, the southernmost place. Some people also like to eat it, the kind of baby mice that have just been born.

Newborn mice, after being dipped in soy sauce. Stuff it directly into your mouth.

One bite at a time, they all said it was delicious.

Just because Wu Hongsheng had heard a lot of such strange news before, he was quite receptive to eating locusts.

In addition, he really thinks that locusts are delicious, more delicious than chicken. So, when he catches locusts, it's called madness.

Every time he eats, Wu Hongsheng can eat three bowls in a row, and the food is particularly fragrant.

Noticing the expression on Wu Hongsheng's face, the Niu family, who came to Wu's house as a guest, immediately felt very uncomfortable.

Because they genuinely think that locusts are not delicious.

And when they ate locusts every day, it was as if they were punished.

And Niu Sanduo, who has been an ancient man for decades, will unconsciously shed tears on his face every time he eats locust rice.

It's too bitter, it's too bitter.

Every time he saw the poop-like locust rice, he wanted to vomit.

The group of Wu family members in front of him had already broken through his cognition.

He really didn't expect that some people would really like to eat those things.

Niu Sanduo has always felt that the paste made by locusts is not only not good-looking, but also tastes bad, and he doesn't know what is in it, it is very bitter.

Just when he was thinking nonsense, Wu Hongsheng's family invited them into the house.

"Boss Niu, you guys will come here, is there something wrong?"

Niu Caigao heard this, and immediately became a little embarrassed.

Last winter, a group of more than 70 people spent the winter here.

They troubled the Wu family for months.

In the spring of this year, they moved back early.

After such a long time of repairing, the whole family of them finally took a breath.

However, after the first three locusts passed, they suddenly realized that the wheat they had planted in the spring had been eaten by the locusts.

He made a conservative estimate, and he felt that when the time came for the people in his family to harvest wheat, it should be less than 10% of the usual.

What is the concept of Ichisei wheat?

Under normal circumstances, they plant an acre of wheat, and the harvest is more than 100 catties. This is still under the condition of intensive farming.

But now?

The wheat they can produce per acre of land is at most twenty or thirty catties. In many places, they can only say 10 pounds.

The harvest is so dismal, what they are most worried about now is that in a few months, they may not be able to survive the winter.

I feel that my own life is getting worse and worse. As the head of the Niu family, how can he not be in a hurry?

In the last few days, he has really been in a hurry.

Therefore, he came this time to find the Wu family and help.

If the Wu family can help them again, then their future life will not be so difficult.

As for the purpose of the Niu family's coming, although Wu Hongsheng didn't know it so clearly, he could guess it.

This has nothing to do but ascend to the Three Treasures Palace.

But anyone who takes the initiative to come to the door basically has something to ask for.

If he is fine, if he lives happily, he will have to run to other people's houses instead,...... That's basically a good idea that didn't have much in store and deliberately came to show off.

Seeing Niu Caigao's wrinkled mouth, like a fish in the water in winter, opening and closing, looking anxious to ventilate, Wu Hongsheng, who was sitting on the main seat, casually picked up a locust in a large bowl placed next to it.

This bowl of locusts is all roasted. And the roast is particularly crispy.

Put a little spice on top.

It tastes like dried fish. Crunchy, crispy, especially salty. It's not delicious.

Wu Hongsheng was waiting there while he was eating.

He waited for these people in front of him to take the initiative to speak.

If they don't speak, then he won't answer them.

Anyway, in this world, only people are required to do things. I didn't ask anyone to help them.

Niu Caigao, who was sitting in the lower position, noticed that Wu Hongsheng was eating the delicate locusts, one bite at a time, one bite at a time, just like eating fried peanuts, eating calmly.

Before he knew it, Niu Caigao couldn't help but swallow a few mouthfuls of saliva.

As soon as he entered the door, he could already smell the fragrance.

I don't know how the Wu family cooks. It's such an inconspicuous locust, they really made a lot of tricks.

Their cattle family eats locusts, and they eat and cook them every day. After putting the locusts in the pot, they are boiled over low heat. After boiling them all into a paste, they will eat them as a family.

What the women at the head of the family do, they don't know too well.

They had thought that locusts were the smell. Locusts can't make a flower.

Today, however, he has finally gained a lot of knowledge.

However, when he thought of the crispy and burnt yellow locusts he saw in front of him, Niu Caigao suddenly thought again, "The locusts are so fragrant and smooth, there must be a lot of oil here, right?" ”
