Chapter 387: Delicious Bamboo Sunflower Eggs
Pei Yu was overjoyed, looked up, but saw that Pei Lian's soul had disappeared.
After a while, fear welled up in my heart.
His heart was beating violently, his body was weak, and he collapsed on the ground, gasping for breath like a fish that had survived a catastrophe.
Thinking back to what happened in that short period of time, he still had heart palpitations and a numb scalp.
Doesn't it mean that the soul that has left the body is fragile? Why is Pei Lian's soul so powerful? It's so powerful that it's not human, but ...... God!

"At the beginning of man, nature is good. Sex is similar, Xi is far away......"
In a room on the south side of the cottage, the sound of children reading aloud can be heard.
This room was cleaned up by Xue Wu for the children to read, and the children were still allowed to play freely in the afternoon.
It was early in the morning, and the women in the village were busy with their work, washing and drying clothes, cooking and feeding the chickens...... It's a busy but peaceful scene.
At first, when something happened in the village, they were at a loss, but now, they have all started their lives.
Xue Wu practiced in the open space in front of the house, practicing the "Nine Turns of Lotus Huagong", and now she has been able to skillfully and freely play out a complete set of movements in the upper part.
The twelve movements are connected together, from simple to complex and then to simple, as if they have experienced a reincarnation, and there is an indescribable sense of mystery when they look at it.
Although Xue Wuren is moving, his heart is extremely quiet, and the aura flows freely in the body along the meridians, and finally all rivers are returned to the dantian.
The pale golden sun shone on her face, and the fine fluff was clearly visible. The clear and white skin reflects the glow, it looks fragile and can be broken by blowing, but in fact, every bit of texture is full of power.
After practicing a set of exercises, she finished her exercises and stood still, and Ah Man stepped forward and handed her a towel.
Xue Wu took it and wiped her sweat.
The spirit pigeon flew in, Xue Wu stretched out an arm for it to settle on, rubbed it on the head, the spirit pigeon made a soft cooing sound, and rubbed it in her palm.
Xue Yu took out a small bag of spirit rice and handed it to Ah Man, asking her to help feed the pigeons, and she took out the small storage bag around the neck of the spirit pigeon, and took out the letter inside.
This time the letter was very short, with only one sentence: "Sister-in-law, wait for me, I'll pick you up!" ”
Xue Wu was taken aback, could it be that Pei Lin wanted to come over in person? Is it okay for him to leave Beijing without permission? What if there is an assassination on the way?
She hurried into the house and wrote a letter asking him not to come.
Anyway, it's not far from the capital, and if you take a carriage faster, you can get there in three or four days, so why should he make a trip?
Even so, her heart is still sweet.
After breakfast, Xue Wu took everyone in the village to plant pumpkins.
In the past few days, she has been teaching a few women who are good at cooking to make pumpkin dishes every day, and the others have become familiar with her, and they are no longer afraid of her, so they all come over to watch.
Stir-fried pumpkin, pumpkin cup, pumpkin porridge, pumpkin bibimbap with mushroom sauce, steamed pumpkin pork ribs, baked pumpkin with egg yolk...... There are many ways to eat pumpkin, and all of them have a unique flavor.
Although I ate it for a few days, I ate it every day, so I didn't feel tired at all, and I even felt happy that I could eat a full meal with new dishes every day.
It can be said that since Xue Wu and a few people came, the happiness index of the entire village has been significantly improved.
Oh, of course, the bandits who were assigned to mine could only be said to be hard labor, not part of the stockade, and the happiness index in the stockade had nothing to do with them.
However, a few absentees were also happy, because their women were reluctant to give them food and would secretly hand it to them.
Xue Wu knew about this, but she didn't stop it.
"The pumpkins will emerge in a few days, they will bloom in about a month, they will bear fruit in two or three months, and then you will be able to eat the pumpkins you have grown."
Hearing Xue Wu say this, everyone was looking forward to it.
"Brother Zhao! I picked up a lot of mushroom eggs! Can this be exchanged for money? Ah Heng, the first boy to attack the bandits that day, rushed over with a basket of mushrooms.
Since the opening of the receiving station in the village, a trend of looking for mountain delicacies and wild game has risen, both adults and children, whenever they have free time, they will go to the mountains to find things that can be exchanged for money, and take them to the receiving station to sell for money.
When you have money, you go to the grocery store next to you to see what new items are in it.
Now those bandits can't press on their heads to make a fortune, and Zhao Gongzi has also distributed food to them, so everyone in the village is basically no longer short of food and clothing.
But cloth, clothing, rouge, and so on from outside the mountains were what they desired.
As long as you are not afraid of hardships and are willing to make efforts to find, you can always find them, and those rouge gouache, pen, ink, paper and inkstone are not easy to obtain.
A woman saw the mushroom eggs and said, "Ah Heng, why did you pick up the snake eggs?" Take it and throw it away, if the female snake smells and finds it, you will suffer! ”
In the bamboo basket, there are white and fat mushroom eggs, but this mushroom egg is considered to be the egg laid by a snake, and no one dares to eat it.
However, Xue Wu was very surprised, "Bamboo sunflower eggs! Where did you find it? Of course, this can be exchanged for money, and the bamboo eggs are a good thing, and the taste is beautiful. ”
Hearing this, Ah Heng, who was still a little disappointed, suddenly became happy again, "In the bamboo forest to the south of the village, there are a lot of them." ”
Xue Wu took the basket over and weighed it, "It's about two catties, and I'll count you as ten cents for one catty, and I'll take it for you." ”
Ah Heng retracted his hand behind his back and didn't answer, "These two catties will be given to Brother Zhao, I'll pick some more, and Brother Zhao will give me money when the time comes." ”
After saying that, he ran away like a gust of wind.
Xue Wu shook her head and smiled, but she didn't refuse.
The woman next to her leaned over, "Zhao Gongzi, can you really eat this snake egg?" ”
"This is not a snake egg, it is a bamboo egg, it is the root of a bamboo sunflower, it tastes very good, you will know when I make it."
Xue Wu carried the basket back to her room with a smile.
Anything in the space can be grown very well, except for wild mushrooms such as bamboo eggs.
Perhaps because space is just a small world in the end, not a real world with a complete ecological chain, there are still some flaws, and some things cannot be cultivated.
It's been a long time since she's been able to eat bamboo eggs, but today she can be considered full.
The taste of bamboo eggs is crispy and tender, and it can be braised or stir-fried, cold dressed, or made into soup.
Knowing that the "snake eggs" could be eaten and sold for ten cents a catty, the children all rushed to the bamboo forest in the south, and some adults also passed.
Xue Wu was worried that something would happen to them, so she asked Xuan Xiao and the three to take care of it secretly.
At noon that day, Xue Wu made two catties of bamboo eggs into a dish, one was braised and the other was fried in lard, and the rest was stewed in chicken soup.
