Chapter 12: Cooking
Ye Qingyu was afraid of long nights and dreams, and as soon as she got home, she immediately released the hibernating snake, she still felt that her legs were weak and her hands were soft when she looked at it, and she didn't know where she got the courage to catch it back at that time.
Now that I think about it, I'm still scared for a while.
Fortunately, the weather was cold, and the snake walked all the way without waking up, probably really dormant.
Ye Qingyu slowly breathed a sigh of relief, thinking about the way to deal with the snake in his memory, he was afraid that the snake would suddenly wake up, so he went to boil the water first, threw the snake in it and scalded it to death, and was relieved to make sure that it was too dead to die anymore.
Gu Lidun watched from the sidelines, he didn't have anything to fear, he was too young to have that natural awe and fear for many things, he just felt curious.
There are a lot of snakes in Xiaonanzhuang, and occasionally people will catch them, but no one will eat this thing.
First, there is too little snake meat, and second, no one will deal with this.
After Ye Qingyu scalded the snake to death, he finally breathed a sigh of relief, and began the second step of processing, first peeling off the snake skin, and then taking out the snake gall bladder, the snake ate well before the winter, and there was food hidden in the stomach, a full stomach, but Ye Qingyu was not very interested in these things, and felt a little disgusting, so he lost them.
She also specially found something to put it up, this is a good thing, looking back Gu Lidun has a dizzy brain fever, and it just happens to be used, after all, the effect of snake gallbladder clearing heat and detoxification is very good.
When the snake came back, it was heavy, and it turned out that there were a lot of things in the stomach, and it was estimated that there would be about a pound of snake meat after processing.
Ye Qingyu didn't dislike it, he always ate it.
I picked up some dried mushrooms and dried fungus in the mountains just now, and there was nothing else, but when she came down, she found that there was still lemongrass in the mountains, so she simply picked some.
The only broken pot in the house was taken by her, and after putting all the snake meat into it, she added water, and there was not much water in the water tank at home, but fortunately, there was a well in the yard, and there was no water to fetch it.
Ye Qingyu finished dealing with the snake and threw all the fungus mushrooms down, but unfortunately there were too few materials, otherwise he could have put them to good use.
I couldn't even find some salt at home, let alone other things, and it was estimated that some of them were also looted by Gu's mother.
Gu Lidun watched Ye Qingyu deal with it, and when she put the pot on the stove, he couldn't help but ask curiously, "Mother, can you eat it?" ”
"Yes, of course you can, it's a pity, there is no salt, otherwise, it should taste better." Ye Qingyu nodded, a little disappointed.
Gu Lidun blinked, then turned around and ran out, and after a while, he came back with a few coarse salts in his hand, "Mother, give, salt." ”
"Where did it come from?" Ye Qingyu was a little surprised.
"That's from the aunt next door." Gu Lidun was a little embarrassed, but he probably understood that it was not good to always ask people for things.
Ye Qingyu reached out and touched his head, "Sister-in-law Liu is good to us, you also have to remember the good of others, if you have a chance in the future, remember to repay her well, you know?" ”
Gu Lidun nodded as if he didn't understand, and urged Ye Qingyu with his eyes.
Ye Qingyu didn't put the salt down immediately, there was not much salt at that point, but everyone's salt was expensive, nothing was easy in this year, grain, oil, rice and noodles were expensive, ordinary people could eat salt and sugar, and those who could eat sugar were all living a good life.
