What's the matter at this time" Mo Bai stepped forward to ask, and after Fu Yinxiao saw a vague figure, he immediately covered Tao Kite's eyes and whispered in her ear, "Don't look at it." ”

Liu Xiucai faltered, and said in a hearty voice, "I almost starved to death halfway through the exam, it was your family who cherished talents, and after donating my silver taels, I won a little show, and you are bent on following me." ”

"You, you, you're really stupid and hopeless, so many sons and brothers chased after you back then, but they chose me." The young man's cheeks were sunken and unkempt, and a few clear tears were still on his face, "It's okay now, follow me such a waste"

He choked up and said that he couldn't speak, "You said that you miss your parents, and it doesn't matter if you don't dare to go back, I'll send you home." Ah, do you see our children?"

Mo Bai saw the person on his back, and he was so frightened that he almost jumped up and took several steps back.

"Liu Xiucai, is he crazy, hasn't his wife been buried a long time ago?"

A villager next to him accosted, "He may have been stupid, he ran to the cemetery last night, dug his wife out with a pair of hands, and now he has to carry it home." ”

Tao Yuan shuddered when he heard this, and involuntarily shrank beside Fu Yinxiao, "He's also pitiful." ”

Fu Yinxiao noticed that his hands were already bloody and fleshy, and his fingertips were still mixed with mud, Mo Bai hurriedly called someone to come over and stop him, "No, don't send Liu Xiucai back quickly, what if the crazy person goes out and hurts someone?"

He waved his hand vigorously, revealing a jade pendant hanging from his waist. The color is translucent, and it is the best color at first glance. Fu Yinxiao's brows furrowed fiercely, and he gave the jade pendant to Liu Xiucai that day.

How can it be there in the deputy governor county

Liu Xiucai saw Mo Bai, and his face changed greatly. I was going to do something with him, but in the end my arm couldn't reach my thigh.

was forcibly stuffed into the house by a group of people, he hugged his late wife and did not let go, and others couldn't take it and didn't want to take it.

Walking all the way to the interior of Cen County, the land cracked out of black holes, and the only corn and wheat were crawling with locusts. Looking at the past from afar, it was black and oppressive.

Tao Kite was not afraid of insects, but carefully observed one

The most common thing is not only locusts, but also a fat and fat meat worm.

On the way, they were grabbed by the legs of their trousers by hungry and delirious refugees, begging for a mouthful of food.

Fu Yinxiao was very planned, although he was sympathetic, but he didn't want to be delayed by them, so he coldly shook it off, took Tao Kite's hand and walked forward.

I turned around and saw almost it. Many families from already poor families are unable to do anything in the face of drought and locust plagues, so they can only sit back and wait for death.

And most of them are still petty bourgeois families, with food and property, and I don't know why they will also end up on the streets.

Tao Yuan secretly asked the aunt who was peeling the bark on the side, and the other party replied with a bitter face, "You have paid the taxes, you have paid the taxes, girl, I think you are a rich and noble family, if you can't help us, don't dangle in front of us." ”

Her eyes widened blankly, "In order to recuperate and reduce the tax of forced labor in recent years, it stands to reason that the imperial court should not collect so much. ”

The aunt picked up the stone next to her and hit her foot, and Tao Yuan dodged it neatly.

"You girl has fine skin and tender meat, why do you come to us to see the jokes"

Suddenly there was a burst of child crying, and the young boy shouted, "I don't eat tree bark, I can't swallow it, I want to eat meat"

Tao Kite also ignored their drive, and said to himself, "Since the locust plague is rampant, even if the weather is good in the future, the grain planted will not be completely eradicated, and the grains will still be lost." ”

Her words poked at the pain of the refugees, and they also replied unceremoniously, "Yes, since this girl knows so much, why don't you help us clean up the locusts, and anyone will say it if she is reasonable."

Tao Yuan got up to leave and said his thoughts to Fu Yinxiao.

After listening to this, Mo Bai was stunned first, and said incredibly, "Can locusts be eaten, won't they be poisonous?"

"Yes." Tao Kite nodded firmly, and instructed him, "Tell everyone that there is meat to eat, and tell them all to gather." ”

Although Fu Yinxiao couldn't quite understand what she was doing, he didn't stop it, and ordered his men to catch locusts and come over.

A group of hungry and crazy people gathered together, but only saw a basket full of locusts, and they couldn't help but feel that they had been tricked, and they were so angry that they shouted loudly

Open up.

The clump set up a pot in the open field, ignoring their noise.

She poured the locusts into boiling water and scalded them, tore off the wings, added salt, ginger slices, and sesame oil and set them aside to marinate.

The women talked a lot, and finally someone couldn't help but ask, "Are you going to make this thing locust can eat?"

"The locusts ate the wheat and the food of men." Tao Kite said unhurriedly: "It is naturally edible." ”

As he spoke, he boiled the oil. Dip the pickled locusts in a layer of flour and a layer of egg liquid, and then fry them in a pan.

Soon, the fragrance came, and the fried golden crispy locusts were fished up. Many people looked at the locusts and swallowed their saliva silently.

"Insects can be eaten," Tao Kite knew that it was useless to say more, so it was better to teach it himself, so he simply pinched a locust and stuffed it into his mouth, biting it with a crisp sound.

"Wow" The people around were so frightened that they retreated again and again, and after a long time. We were relieved to see that the pottery kite was not poisoned.

The child did not have the reason of an adult, and when he smelled the fragrance, he rushed up directly, stretched out his hand to ask for it, and the parents couldn't stop it.

"Even though he looks a little scary, it tastes really good." Tao Kite gave food to the children next to him while controlling the oil, and they jumped up happily after taking a bite.

Some of the adults who didn't know the taste of meat for a long time tentatively ate it, nodded again and again, and gobbled it into their mouths. There is no shadow of what I was afraid of just now.

Fu Yinxiao nodded approvingly, and his gaze at Tao Yuan was full of relief.

Mo Bai clapped his hands happily, "Great, now the people have something to eat, don't worry about whether they will starve to death." ”

Tao Kite stayed and spent several hours teaching the people here how to catch locusts and how to make clean and edible locusts.

She also noticed that the white and fat meat worms were also caught and made for everyone to eat, ignoring the form of its worms, it still tasted sweet.

In her conversations with them, she found that many of them were backward in their planting skills and could not even accurately calculate the time.

Tao Kite wondered when he would write a booklet to tell them exactly when to sow and harvest the crops.
