【060】Camping(3)
"Xiaomei, is that a red-crowned crane?" Chen Jiaojiao looked at a certain long-legged bird catching fish by the water's edge, and couldn't help but pull the hem of Su Mei's clothes and asked.
Su Mei looked over and saw a touch of red on the top of the beautiful crane's head, nodded and said, "Yes." ”
When Chen Jiaojiao heard this, a bright smile suddenly appeared on her face and said, "Xiaomei, let's fight a red-crowned crane and go back, shall we?" ”
Sumy: "......"
It's 1984, and the Wildlife Protection Law doesn't have it yet, so there's nothing wrong with Chen Jiaojiao's idea of eating a red-crowned crane.
"The ducks and geese we caught are enough to eat, right? Red-crowned cranes don't want it. Su Mei shook her head.
Chen Jiaojiao looked at the red-crowned crane over there and nodded helplessly, "Okay, in fact, the red-crowned crane is so beautiful that I can't bear to eat it." ”
"The sika deer is also quite cute, don't you eat it?" Su Mei asked rhetorically after listening to Chen Jiaojiao's words.
"Eat, venison is delicious." Chen Jiaojiao said as a matter of course.
Sumy: "......"
"Alright, the prey has hit, and we should also carry the water back." Su Mei didn't want to be poor with Chen Jiaojiao, and was ready to carry water back.
Chen Jiaojiao looked at Su Meidao speechlessly, "Carry the water back?" Dear plum, have you forgotten that we don't have buckets? How to fetch water? ”
"Then let's deal with the prey first, go back and ask my sister to see what kind of water is used." Su Mei also realized that they didn't bring buckets at all when they went up the mountain, and she thought about it and said.
"Okay." Chen Jiaojiao nodded, affirmed Su Mei's proposal, and dealt with the prey they caught together, plucking the hair, disemboweling and disemboweling the internal organs.
Su Mei and Chen Jiaojiao over there had already hit the prey and were dealing with the prey, and Chen Yuanchao here took his sons to recognize the wild vegetables while collecting firewood, and by the way, they pinched the fresh heads of the wild vegetables and went back to prepare to cook and eat.
"Come here, you have to recognize these wild vegetables, and if you want to survive in the wild in the future, you must learn to find some wild vegetables to satisfy your hunger when there is no food."
"This is koji hemp cabbage, which has the effect of clearing heat and detoxifying. After picking, wash it, then blanch it in hot water, mix it cold, or eat it with sauce. ”
"This is a bitter vein dish, and the way to eat it is similar to the one above. This is daylily, daylily can't be cooked, after picking, it must be scalded in hot water, otherwise it will be poisoned, you know? ”
"This is dandelion, this is purslane, and this is celery, and swallowtail, small root garlic, spiny cabbage, hawthorn, this is gray cabbage, you can use it to fry after blanching it in hot water, or you can use it to make dried roasted pork and fried shredded pork with gray cabbage."
"This is amaranth salad or stir-fried, it can be made into vegetables or dumplings, and now the taste is still good, most of the homes also have it in the vegetable garden, and occasionally it will be used to grow vegetables, and there are a lot of them in the wild."
"This is mugwort, and this one can be used to wrap dumplings or boil noodles or something. Moreover, wormwood can also be dried, used as mosquito repellent herbs, and can be used to make moxibustion strips. ”
"Starry sky, elm money, iron amaranth, pig hair cabbage, black locust flower, plantain, water celery, Jerusalem artichoke, bracken, these are the wild vegetables I want to teach you, and I don't ask you to memorize them all, but you must at least remember several, so that when you need it in the future, you will not be confused, and your mind will be blank."
"I don't ask you all to be soldiers like me in the future, but even if you don't become soldiers, you still need to learn the ability to survive in the wild."
"Don't think that if you don't serve in the army, you will lack training. There is a father who has been a soldier, you all have to be conscious, from childhood to adulthood, you will all live under my training. ”
"Maybe I'll have it when I'm busy with work in the future, and I rarely have time to train with you, but if I have time, I'll take you to experience the beauty of survival in the wild."
"Yes, I'll take you to feel the wild living environment in our northeast, and in the future, I will take you to the south to experience the life of camping in the tropical rainforest."
"Remember?" After Chen Yuanchao finished speaking, he asked his sons.
"Remember Dad." Chen Aixing and the five brothers said in unison.
"Hmm." Chen Yuanchao nodded with satisfaction, "Let's go, after picking the wild vegetables, let's pick up these dead branches and take them back to make a fire." ”
"Mom—we're back—"
As soon as Chen Aitang returned to the place where he had just set up camp, as soon as he saw the figure of Su Lan sitting under the tree, he happily ran to his mother and excitedly showed off to his mother, "Mom, this is a wild vegetable I picked, and my father said that this is called purslane." ”
"Mom." Chen Aixing and the others also came to Su Lan's side one after another, all with excited smiles on their faces.
"Coming back?" Su Lan also looked at his sons with a smile, and then looked at Chen Yuanchao, who was carrying a large bundle of firewood, and praised with a smile, "It's great, you're all great." ”
Su Lan gave her sons a loving look one by one, touched their heads and said, "Are you happy to follow your father today?" I learned something from my father, did you remember it? ”
"Dad not only taught us to recognize wild vegetables, but also taught us to look at the trails of wild beasts in position." Chen Aixing replied.
"Have you studied hard?" Su Lan said softly, "I don't force you to memorize everything that your father taught you now, but you can't help but know it in your heart?" You'll always be useful sometime, you know? ”
"Well, we all remember, Mom." Chen Aixing nodded.
"Okay, auntie, they should come back in a while, you now follow Dad to make a fire and burn the fire." Su Lan smiled and kissed her sons again, and asked them to follow Chen Yuanchao to learn how to make a fire.
Chen Aixing and their triplets are all eight years old, and the children of this age in the countryside have all learned to make a fire and cook, but their own sons have not yet learned, Su Lan feels a little sorry for his sons.
It's really wrong to pamper your son, so let your own man teach her sons, she is not good at teaching her sons as a woman.
"Okay, Mom." Chen Aixing and the others obediently came to Chen Yuanchao's side and followed Chen Yuanchao to learn how to make a fire.
Chen Yuanchao didn't do it himself, but asked his son to make the fire by himself, gave them a pack of matches and left it alone.
"Congge, you bring out the bucket first, we didn't bring the bucket when we came, and it will be difficult to fetch water for a while." Su Lan said to Chen Yuanchao.
There was a small stream not far from where they camped, but even if there was water, nothing could be fetched without water.
"Okay." After hearing his daughter-in-law's words, Chen Yuanchao took out the carpenter's tools to prepare to make a bucket, Chen Yuanchao found a fir tree and cut it down, and then very quickly began to plank the planks and make the barrel.
