Chapter 36: Dog Eats Dog
While thinking so, after Qu Die had eaten, he collapsed a bamboo basket and shovel and walked up the mountain.
She still has an impression of the dishes Gu Zhan used when cooking meat last time, Gu Zhan said that she couldn't eat them, but she felt that those dishes looked like the kind of coriander and green onions in modern vegetable fields.
Even the effect is very similar, but coriander and green onions are edible, and the resources here are so scarce, basically you can only nibble on wild vegetables, and it will be interesting if you find other varieties.
hooked the corners of his mouth, and Qu Die's heart couldn't help but look forward to it. Along the steep mountain road all the way up, Qu Die kept paying attention to the small flowers and grass on the side of the road, "Huh? Isn't this a dandelion? ”
Looking at a white and fluffy plant like a cotton ball, Qu Die couldn't help but be a little surprised.
It seems that modern things are still available here, thinking so, Qu Die continued to look into the distance, "Little Daisy......
There are also cauliflower swirls! The more she looked at it, the more excited Qu Die's heart became, since she could have these things, then maybe she really had what she wanted!
Picking up her pace, Qu Die couldn't help but walk up again, and after about five minutes, Qu Die came to the familiar stream. After all these days, the stream is still as clear, and a few fat big black fish can be faintly seen in it.
Thinking that he would come over to catch a few fish and learn to cook before he went back, Qu Die first groped for the stream.
On the one hand, the soil near the water source is wetter and more fertile, because other wild animals will come here from time to time to drink, and the excrement left by the way is the best nutrition for the soil.
Qu Die didn't know how many of those animals would be here in modern times, but with her living for so long, she wouldn't have encountered too fierce ones.
As soon as he stepped in, Qu Die found that the soil here was indeed very soft, and he couldn't help but feel a little more confident.
Pushing aside the weeds that had reached the person's calf, Qu Die carefully investigated, and it didn't take long for him to make a discovery.
"Snake Fruit!" Vaguely seeing a touch of lilac mixed with green, Qu Die's eyes couldn't help but light up, and she immediately stepped forward.
After bending down to see the appearance of the plant thoroughly, Qu Die completely confirmed, "It's really a snake fruit." The snake fruit is a very common wild fruit that grows by the river in the countryside, and after picking one and looking at it for a while, the surprise in her heart also dissipated.
In the past, when the old minister took them to practice, they were taught about the usefulness of this plant.
When performing field tasks, if you don't have the physical strength, you can go to the river to find some of this fruit to eat, and you can quickly replenish it. However, the most wonderful thing about snake fruit is that it can also temporarily replace medicine to treat bruises, abrasions, and musculoskeletal injuries.
It can be said that it can be used as both fruit and medicinal herbs, and now that it can be found here, Qu Butterfly can't help but be a little happy. Especially at the moment when she saw that sea of blue flowers, she felt that she was really lucky today, because the ripe fruit of the snake fruit was blue, and she happened to be in the ripening season.
Bending down and burying her head in the soil, Qu Die picked about half a basket of fruit and washed it with the stream water, and then caught another fish and hurried home in the setting sun.
Simply solved his dinner, Qu Die didn't do much work, and directly climbed into bed and slept a sweet and peaceful sleep.
After three days of leisurely life, she finally began to regain her energy and began to prepare the tea eggs to be sold the next day.
In the past few days, from Qu Wanting's mouth, she learned about the recent situation of the Qu family - since she ventured to grab the bracelet that day, Qu Wanting immediately went to the doctor to see Mrs. Qu as quickly as possible in her life according to her arrangement.
Although the Qu family has a meager background, in view of the fact that Mrs. Qu is the head of the entire Qu family, she is their backbone. Zhao Mei gritted her teeth and made up enough money for the consultation, driven by money, the doctor also looked at her very seriously, and Mrs. Qu woke up that night.
Under Qu Die's advice, Mrs. Qu also successfully knew that her life was saved by Qu Wanting, and her attitude towards her changed slightly, although she was still not close, she was not as deliberately difficult as before.
And Zhao Mei, after being knocked back by that, immediately found that her bracelet was missing, and then thought about everything that happened at that time, and pointed her suspicion at Qu Wenshi without hesitation.
These two people can now be said to be on the tip of the needle, Zhao Mei couldn't let go of her baby bracelet for a moment, and began to find all kinds of troubles for Qu Wen's family, and the two of them ate dogs, which made Qu Wanting idle.
Seeing that Qu Die couldn't stop being busy, Qu Wanting couldn't help but ask kindly, "Do you want me to help?" Qu Die had helped her so much, but she could only sit and watch from the side, Qu Wanting suddenly felt uncomfortable, and she felt a little unhappy.
"Oh no, you just have a good rest, I'll be ready to do it right away." Or the real iron pestle grinding into a needle, after failure again and again, Qu Die's technology to make tea eggs is now professional and fast, no, it took just two hours to almost complete.
Qu Wanting told her that now the name of tea eggs has begun to spread in several villages outside, and Qu Die's previous reputation was very famous within a radius of a few miles, and now it is even worse.
I heard that fools can make good food, and at first most people treated it with the attitude of listening to jokes, but somehow, those who have eaten tea eggs began to form their own faction and spontaneously praise the legend of tea eggs.
"I heard that the leader is still a yellow flower girl who doesn't know which family!" Qu Die, who heard this, couldn't help but smile faintly, but she was a little moved in her heart, how could she not guess the identity of the woman, but she was a little surprised that she would do it so far.
And Qu Wanting, who had been silently watching Qu Die's work, was a little pensive at the moment, she had been a little curious since a long time ago, and even more so after the incident with Qu Jia.
These new and interesting things are something she has never seen before, and she believes that it is not only her, but many people.
But Qu Wanting is very smart and has never asked, she knows that if Qu Die wants to tell herself, one day she will take the initiative to speak.
After sitting for a while and having some dinner with Qu Die, Qu Wanting hurriedly said goodbye, she didn't want Qu Wen's secret to discover her secret yet, otherwise she would have a hard time in the future.
Time flies, and in a blink of an eye, it is the next morning, and people in the countryside generally get up early and go to bed early. Around five or six o'clock, the town began to come alive. Holding his big pot of tea eggs, Qu Die once again chose the old man's mule cart, "Auntie is not here?" ”
Glancing at the empty car, Qu Die couldn't help but ask, in fact, she didn't like the gossip aunt very much, but somehow she just wanted to find something to talk to the old man.
Obviously, he had only seen it twice, but Qu Die couldn't help but want to get close to the old man, and even vaguely felt that he was a little familiar. "Hey, busy, busy at home!" smiled innocently, and the old man looked a little wooden.
When she got into the car, the mule cart was not fast, and it was about two quarters of an hour before she wanted to come to the town, so she leisurely talked to the old man. "Uncle, which village are you from? How can I see you whenever I come, can it be that you live next to the town? ”
Waving his hand, the old man couldn't help but smile and replied: "Li Village, Li Village, just leave it there, look?" Holding out a finger full of old lines, the old man pointed in one direction.
Looking up, what Qu Die saw was the green mountains behind her, as well as the faintly visible thatched houses.
After looking at it like this for a while, Qu Die couldn't help but be a little stunned, very familiar, and really had a very familiar feeling.
pursed her lips, but Qu Die couldn't remember anything about it anyway.
This feeling was a little uncomfortable, and after being stunned for a while, Qu Die didn't let himself be immersed in it anymore. Looking at the old man's arched back, he couldn't help but ask a little teasingly: "Uncle, why don't you give me a ride in the future?" Anyway, I've been diligent in the next few days, how much money do you want a day, I'll give you a package. ”
Her words came from the heart, because looking at the old man's old posture and the dilapidated mule cart, Qu Die could guess that the old man's business situation was not very good, after all, he was not the only one who did the mule cart business.
was stunned, the old man obviously didn't expect Qu Die to say this, and his sluggish brain was a little stuck for a while, and he couldn't react. "Hey, it's all right." While trembling his rough big hands, the old man's body was also a little excited at the moment.
In this way, chatting all the way, Qu Die finally arrived in town, said goodbye to the old man, and Qu Die strode in with a basin. "Huh? It's her, that fool is coming! ”
"Shhhh It is said that she sells tea eggs, you can be quiet, so that you can hear who still sells you! Hearing the man next to him say this, someone immediately patted him on the shoulder and reminded.
The man who was reminded immediately snorted with some disdain, and still said stiffly: "Cut, who knows, maybe that tea egg is not as delicious as it was rumored!" ”
Raising her eyes and sweeping around, Qu Die found that there were many people gathered around at this time, looking at her with different eyes.
She was about to speak, but suddenly she saw a cheerful figure running towards her.
"Qu Die, Qu Die! You're finally here? Immediately after opening the crowd, Wei Huan ran directly to Qu Die's front and asked with some surprise. I've been waiting for you for a few days, you can count it, have you taken the tea eggs? ”
Turning his face slightly, Wei Huan looked directly at Qu Die's hand. Gently pushing her face away, Qu Die found a stall to start arranging it without hurry, and replied, "Well, why am I here?" By the way, what do they do? ”
Her eyes motioned for her to look at the crowd, and Qu Die quietly waited for Wei Huan's answer. "Ah, they, not everyone who was your tea egg last time liked this taste very much! Although there are not many people, the villagers have never seen this thing, and it immediately spread. No, these people are waiting here every day. ”
hooked his mouth, although Qu Die had heard of it for a long time, but he still hadn't seen it with his own eyes. "Huh? Why are you still so little this time! You see so many people waiting, aren't you selling out right away? ”
