Chapter 97: I'm Going to Pick Up Snail Lions
Although Su Jinse and Zhang Zhiwen have picked up in the river for a few days, but because no one has picked up the snail lions in this river for many years, even if they have picked up a few times, there are still a lot of them, and this river is not small, extending from the village above, all the way to the direction of the Buddha Ling Temple dozens of miles away, there are many snail lions.
They also don't go to deep water to pick it up, it's enough to pick it up in shallow water.
After a while, Uncle Lin also came, and when Aunt Meng went home just now, when she saw Uncle Lin, she told her about it by the way, so Uncle Lin also brought his eldest son here.
By the time the rich couple arrived, Aunt Meng and Uncle Lin had already picked up a small half basket, and Zhang's rich daughter-in-law suddenly turned red when she saw it, how could this be!
Aunt Meng actually told Lin Bajin, it was too much!
"Quick, quick!" Zhang Youqian's daughter-in-law hurriedly took off her shoes and socks, urging her husband to hurry up and get into the water, for fear that if she took a step too slow, the snail lion would be picked up.
At this time, the sun was about to set, and every family was basically going home to do the work in the fields, and they were amazed to see that Mrs. Meng's family, Lin Bajin's family, and Zhang Youqian's family were all picking up snail lions.
Didn't everyone say in the morning that Zhang Tiezhu's family was so poor that they couldn't open the pot before picking up snails to eat? Why is it that this is only a day's work, and several of them have also gone down to the river to pick up snail lions, is it possible that their family will not be able to open the pot?
Zhang Dafu's daughter-in-law asked curiously: "Meng, what are you doing?" What are you doing picking up snail lions? ”
"Pick up the snail lion and eat it at home, Zhang Tiezhu said that this snail lion can be eaten, but it is delicious, the rich people in the county like to eat it, and he also said that this taste is not worse than meat!" Aunt Meng said without concealment.
"Really? Then I'll pick up some and go back, how can I eat this snail lion? This shell is very hard. Zhang Dafu's daughter-in-law wondered.
"Zhang Tiezhu said that if you don't understand, you can go to his house to ask for advice, and he will ask her daughter-in-law to teach us how to eat." Aunt Meng said happily.
Hearing this, Zhang Dafu's daughter-in-law hurriedly threw down the things in her hand and also participated in the action of going down to the river to pick up snail lions.
As soon as the others heard that this was as delicious as meat, they all rolled up their trouser legs and went down to the river to pick up snail lions.
Zhang You's rich daughter-in-law glanced at Aunt Meng speechlessly, this is a stupid, broken mouth, so easy to tell everyone, one by one, they all went down to the river to pick up snail lions, where will there be snail lions to pick up tomorrow?
Zhang's rich daughter-in-law became more and more dissatisfied with Aunt Meng.
Zhang Youqian didn't think about it so much, he just thought about picking up more and going home so that he could eat a few more meals.
So it didn't take long to see dozens of people in the river, picking up snail lions, and chatting with each other.
One person asked, "Why did you say that Zhang Tiezhu found that this snail lion can be eaten?" ”
"No matter how Zhang Tiezhu found out, we can open the meat tonight anyway."
"Yes, yes, yes!"
Aunt Meng interjected: "I heard Zhang Tiezhu say, this method was discovered by Ling Bao'er, Zhang Tiezhu has been going to the county to sell snail lions in the past few days, and sold the fried snail lions to the restaurants in the county." ”
"That must have sold for a lot of silver, right?"
"Then I don't know, but I saw him come back with meat buns that day, but Xiangli!"
Hiss!
When everyone heard this, they felt that their saliva was about to flow.
Meat buns!
I usually can't even eat meat, let alone meat buns!
If they take the snail lion to the county restaurant and sell it, maybe they can sell it for some money and get some food and meat back.
So everyone picked up the snail lion even more excitedly, and didn't go home until it was dark.
