Chapter 8: Strange Encounters in Weir Pond Picking

Su Baiya held the ten copper plates in her hand and shook her head uncontrollably, Grandma Su really came home.

Fortunately, when she helped Li Shi back to the house, she checked the wound, but it was okay to break some skin and prevent the wound from becoming infected.

Just when she stood under the eaves and was stunned for a while, she saw two people holding a goose in their hands, walking towards the courtyard gate, and suddenly remembered that the village chief planned to raise geese on the edge of the weir pond.

He trotted after him, intending to find out.

"Ya'er."

Su Baiya had just walked outside the courtyard, stopped and looked in the direction of the sound source, only to see a middle-aged woman sweating profusely pushing a wheelbarrow.

There is this person in her memory, it is Zhou Niangzi, the cook of the village chief's family, and she can just inquire about the news: "Aunt Zhou, I'll help you." ”

"No, no, it's coming soon, I just heard that you were injured a few days ago." Zhou Niangzi refused again and again.

"Then I won't trouble you," Su Baiya took the opportunity to ask, "I saw two people carrying geese out just now, does Aunt Zhou know what they are doing?" ”

Zhou Niangzi wiped the sweat stains on her forehead: "You don't know, the village chief plans to raise geese, and those two people are the people invited by the village chief to raise geese, and they may be feeding the geese to the village chief." ”

"No wonder I watched a man walk away with a goose, and I really wanted to see how they raised geese."

After speaking, Zhou Niangzi had already pushed the wheelbarrow into the yard: "Isn't it just raising geese, just when I am going to the weir pond to pick beans, I can take you to see." ”

"Okay, I'm sorry to trouble Aunt Zhou."

"What's polite" Zhou Niangzi smiled, "The village chief is generous, and it will be easy for the children of our village to ask for a few goose feathers to make shuttlecock in the future." ”

Zhou Niangzi took a basket on her back, and the two of them walked towards the weir pond together.

Along the way, Su Baiya continued to inquire about the news from Zhou Niangzi's mouth, and only after asking, did she know that it was estimated that in the past two days, the village chief would decide who to hand over the goose to raise.

And there is a great chance of choosing Li Xingwang, that is, the actor of that night, and the other is Lao Liutou, who is experienced but has inconvenient legs and feet when he is old.

So in my heart, I silently discussed the countermeasures with Wu Xianxian, and unanimously decided to "act on the opportunity".

When she arrived at the edge of the weir pond, Zhou Niangzi put down the basket and pointed to the opposite side of the weir pond: "You see, the hut under construction is for the goose keepers, and the geese are divided into two batches, and whoever raises them well will be handed over to whom." ”

"So many geese." Su Baiya glanced at it roughly and estimated that there were nearly more than a hundred geese.

What she values most is that she still has a house to live in, this news makes her ecstatic, if she can come to raise geese, then she can naturally leave the Su family with Su Li, at least temporarily.

Zhou Niangzi slapped her back with her backhand: "Li Xingwang and Lao Liu Tou are good, if you are curious, go over and take a look, I still have to pick beans." ”

"I suddenly feel that there is nothing unusual about raising geese, I'll help you Aunt Zhou."

"Then you pick it slowly, don't get tired."

Su Baiya walked towards the dense beans on the side, and absentmindedly wrapped the beans she picked off with her clothes.

"I'm going to take care of the goose raising thing, do me a favor." She communicates with the Desireless Immortal in her heart.

"Look at me."

As the words of the Desireless Immortal fell, the figure also disappeared into the space.

"Where have you been?"

Su Baiya's words were not answered, and then her divine sense withdrew from the space, and suddenly she raised her head, only to see a... Sparrow-shaped birds hover overhead.

"Twitter"

Although the bird's name is Su Baiya, she can understand it, and the bird is actually a fairy who does not want to be immortal.

The meaty, fat and fat Desireless Immortal is actually cultivated by a sparrow?

The unwanted immortal, who turned into a sparrow, flapped his wings twice and slid into the sky.

A moment later.

"Chirp" is like a melodious, crisp and loud chirp that pierces the sky.

Zhou Niangzi, Li Xingwang, Lao Liu Tou, including Su Baiya, were all attracted by this loud and melodious chirp, and they all stopped their work and looked at the sky.

At the same time, the flocks of geese playing in the weir pond are also the same, leaning their necks to "quack" as if in response to the chirping of Fangcai, followed by a noisy "chirping" sound in the surrounding woods, like a meeting of thousands of birds.

After a while, Zhou Niangzi came back to her senses: "It's strange, what birdsong is so beautiful, isn't it that kind of divine bird passing by here." ”

Su Baiya didn't answer, she understood the chirp just now, this is it that has been trapped for 10,000 years, venting the depression in her heart when she soars into the sky.

Her heart couldn't be calm for a long time, is Wuxian really just a sparrow?

"Hey" Zhou Niangzi put her hands in the shape of trumpets and put them on the side of her mouth, "Old Liu Tou, Li Xingwang, your goose has run away." ”

"Ah, what" Li Xingwang retracted his gaze from afar at the sky, shocked, and looked at it only to see the geese scattering in all directions.

However, Jiang is still old and spicy, and Lao Liu Tou immediately has a countermeasure: "Don't worry about Zhou Niangzi, I'll let them go out to play, and I'll be back in a while." ”

Zhou Niangzi patted the dust on her palm: "This old Liu Tou, there is really a set of ways to raise geese." ”

Su Baiya's bean clothes were almost unbearable, so she walked to Zhang Niangzi's side and poured them into the back basket: "Aunt Zhou, I saw that there are still a lot of beans on the other side of the weir pond. ”

Zhou Niangzi smiled heartily: "If you want to eat and pick a little, just take it with you, the village chief is generous." ”

Su Baiya continued to ask: "Is there any alum in the kitchen?" ”

"Yes, there is" Zhou Niangzi was embarrassed, "I can't call the shots for you, white alum." ”

"Aunt Zhou misunderstood me," Su Baiya paused and said, "The last time the merchant came to the village, I heard a lot of novel food, which can be made with beans and alum, which is very suitable for summer use. ”

She was involved in many aspects of her career in her previous life, and she might be able to show her face in front of the village chief.

"Hu Dou can also add alum," Zhou Niangzi became interested, "I really want to see what it looks like." ”

Su Baiya tentatively: "Then I'll go to the kitchen and try to do it later?" ”

"Okay, if it's delicious, try it for the village chief." Although Zhou Niangzi can't make the decision to give alum to others, it's okay to use it to study dishes.

Waiting for the beans and beans to be almost picked, the two returned to the village chief's house together.

Su Baiya put the picked beans in a wooden basin and filled it with water to soak for a while.

The freshly picked beans are tender and wrinkled after a while.

There is a grinding disc outside the kitchen, while pushing and grinding, add beans and quickly grind it into soy milk, then filter out the slag with gauze, and then use a pair of chopsticks to stir the slurry and water evenly, and finally wait for the stirred slurry to settle into a lump of powder.

Su Baiya rested for a while, then went to the stove to light a fire.

Wait for the water to boil, and the powder will almost settle.

Then put the powder lump into the boiling water and stir constantly, when the visual stirring is even, extinguish the firewood in the stove, leaving only a little spark to continue to exert residual heat, stir again for a while until it becomes viscous, lift the pot and pour the prepared powder into a large porcelain bowl with alum.

It's done, Su Baiya wiped the fine sweat on her forehead and breathed a sigh of relief at the same time, she has theoretical knowledge of Hu Dou Jelly, but it is the first time to do it.

To sum up: three points depend on hard work and seven points are destined.
