Chapter 6 Quinoa bacon
Until the Hu family returned home, Xu Qingyan didn't figure out how to deal with it.
When Hu Shi entered the door, he saw his daughter sitting by the water tank in the courtyard in a daze, and couldn't help but be curious: "Girl, what do you think?" What about Arwen Ajun? ”
"Ahh Oh, they went out to play. Xu Qingyan replied nonchalantly, raised her eyes and saw the quinoa at her feet, and said calmly: "Mother, let's fry this and eat it at night." ”
Hu Shi looked at the small pot in front of him, and said suspiciously: "Where did you pick the wild grass from, it's not that you can't eat wild vegetables, if you want to eat wild vegetables, wait for another ten days and half a month, and then it is estimated that wild vegetables should also grow." ”
"Mother, this is a wild vegetable, it's just that we haven't eaten it before." Saying that, Xu Qingyan followed Hu into the kitchen.
"Mother, is it okay to eat this at night, okay?" Looking at her mother's expression of refusal, Xu Qingyan could only be coquettish.
"Can you eat this thing, don't look back and eat people out of a good way." Hu still maintained his due sobriety under his daughter's coquettish offensive.
"It's edible, I saw someone eat this kind of thing in my dream last night, and it's very delicious." Xu Qingyan saw that Hu Shi was unmoved, so she could only casually give a reason.
But apparently her excuse did not win Hu's trust
"You kid, how can you do the things in your dreams accurately, maybe it's just that you, a delicious girl, think about it day and dream at night." Hu shook his head and smiled.
"Mother, it's true, that dream is real, mother, you just do it and try it, there are still people in the dream who sell it for money, and they sell it for a lot of silver."
When Hu Shi heard this, he shook his hand, "Really? Someone in your dreams sells this for money? "If it was just a dream that it could be eaten, Hu was not too tempted, but if it was said that it could be sold for money, Hu began to waver.
This family is really short of money, and anything that can make money is worth a try for the Hu family.
Besides, if it's just a child's greedy hysterical thoughts, then you can only dream of eating, how can you think of making money, maybe this dream really has some origins.
"Well, why don't you try it?" Hu Shi was shaken by Xu Qingyan's words,
"Well, mother, do we still have bacon at home, this is the most delicious fried with bacon, and then put some chili." Xu Qingyan saw that her mother was relieved, and immediately hit the snake with the stick.
"Bacon, there is still half a piece left during the New Year, but this half of the bacon is to be prepared for guests at home to invite guests, how can you make your own food, your milk will know when you look back, and you have to scold."
"Mother, don't worry, as long as it's done and the milk has tasted it, the milk will definitely not curse. Besides, if the wild vegetable is sold for a good price, then some meat will be cut. ”
"This ...... Okay, mother, just listen to you this time, you tell me how to make this thing. The Hu family hesitated for a moment, but finally agreed, it was really too much of the temptation of silver for her, and it should not be said that it was great for the entire Xu family.
Under Xu Qingyan's guidance, the Hu family finally made this plate of quinoa bacon, Xu Qingyan looked at this familiar dish, and her eyes turned red. This dish is not only the first decent dish to eat at this house, but also her favorite in her previous life, and it is also a famous dish in her hometown in her previous life.
In the evening, the family sat down at the dinner table and looked at the plate of green dishes on the table that was different from the usual day, and everyone was a little surprised.
"Erniang, what is this? At this time, wild vegetables are popping up. Cao asked with a puzzled expression
"Mother, this is Yan Yatou picked it back today, saying that she saw edible wild vegetables in her dream last night, and she asked her daughter-in-law to make it for her to eat, I thought that there are no green vegetables to adjust at this time, since Yan Yatou said that she can eat it, or let's try it, if you can really eat it, won't you have another dish in the future." Hu Shi said with a flattering face, although she was moved by her daughter at that time, but now in front of so many people, she can't help but regret her impulsiveness again.
"Mother, there's one more thing you forgot to say. Milk, this thing can not only be eaten, but also sold for money, milk, you can taste it, it is delicious. Xu Qingyan saw the uneasiness on her mother's face, and immediately said.
"Yes, yes, yes....... Mother, I've tasted this dish just now, it's not poisonous. And what Yan Yatou said is right, if you can really sell it for money, it will be a great thing for our family. As soon as Hu was said by Xu Qingyan, he immediately felt certain in his heart and hurriedly said.
"Well, in that case, let's try it." After Cao finished speaking, he took the lead in moving the chopsticks, and before he clamped it twice, he let out an exclamation: "Why is there still meat in here." ”
Hu Shi was a little sneering when he heard this, "Mother, Yan Yatou said that the person in the dream is fried with bacon, saying that this is more fragrant and delicious, but the daughter-in-law didn't dare to put more, just cut a small piece, cut it into shreds and fry it inside." ”
"That's right, grandma, this dish in the dream sells well, I thought that if it was made according to the method in the dream, it was really delicious, then we could sell it to the restaurant in the town. If it doesn't taste good, it can only mean that this dream is not true, and it is just a dish added to your own home. Xu Qingyan saw that the old lady's face was a little bad, and she was afraid that the Hu family would be blamed, so she hurriedly spoke up to help.
"Okay, the dishes are ready, you can all taste them." After listening to Xu Qingyan's words, the old lady's face softened a little, this family is too poor, and the only piece of bacon is to save face when the family visitors.
As soon as the old lady spoke, the chopsticks of the people on the table immediately moved, especially a few children, without the concerns of adults, and there were delicious food in front of the temptation, naturally they were anxious.
"It's delicious, mother, I think that Yan girl's dream is true, this wild vegetable must be very good." Uncle Xu Guangqi ate two chopsticks and began to express his opinion.
"That's right, mother, what the head of the house said is that I also think this dish is delicious." The eldest aunt Wu echoed in a loud voice.
Naturally, Xu Guangqi and Hu Erniang also agreed with this, and Cao's eyes lit up after eating it, and this dish of quinoa bacon was unanimously approved by the Xu family.
"Yan girl, where did you pick this wild vegetable from, and how many are there?" After Cao's finished eating, the first thing that came to mind was the issue of selling money.
"There's a lot of it there!" Xu Qingjun hurriedly interjected, this was found by the two brothers, and they would have to hurry up to show their merits, maybe after selling the money, grandma would buy them candy to eat!
After some answers, the family discussed that tomorrow the whole family would go to pick quinoa. In order to keep it secret, you must go early in the morning when there is no one around, and then pick the leaves after getting them back, and handle them simply, so that it is not easy for people to find out what the quinoa is in its original form.
The next day, the rooster just crowed, the sky was not bright, the family put on their clothes, taking advantage of the darkness, no one around, the family hurriedly went to the west mountain pass.
When they arrived at Xishan Pass, Xu Guangqi and Xu Guanghua looked at each other and said with a smile: "It turned out to be this thing, we thought about making this to eat in April last year, but this thing was very firewood at that time." It turned out to be so early. ”
It turns out that the benefits of some things can only be discovered at the right time. This time, the family brought the basket and tools after Xu Qingyan's reminder, and this time they couldn't pull it up by the roots, but cut it off with a knife next to the roots, so that next year this col would be full of artemisia quinoa.
After a while, under the guidance of Xu Qingyan, the Xu family had already cut two large baskets of quinoa, which was about more than 100 catties. Xu Qingyan thinks that it is enough to cut so much first, if it is not easy to rot if it is cut too much, it is better to sell it if it is to sell it, and besides, it is not early now, someone should come out and walk around soon, and it is better to go home quickly.
As soon as Xu Qingyan said this, the Xu family felt that this was indeed the case, anyway, this quinoa would not run away on long legs, if it was sold well, it would come back tomorrow.
