Chapter 292: Crazy with hunger
Yu Xia is no stranger to the word icebreaker.
When they were in love before, the two of them made an appointment to go to the icebreaker festival to play, but after the quarrel, they defaulted to not counting. Even if they reconciled, the latter two people had a lot of work, and they never had time, so they never mentioned it again.
Now that I mentioned it again, Yu Xia was even more interested in this icebreaker festival.
"Do you pick wild vegetables and take them back to eat? Eat so many kinds of them all? ”
Xie Qing said "um".
"Sulptan's cabbage dumplings, cold bracken, plantain fried water dandelion porridge. If you can touch bamboo shoots, you will also soak sour bamboo shoots, as well as Houttuynia cordata, toon and the like. At this time, wild vegetables generally have the effect of clearing heat and detoxifying, and the elderly in the family will eat wild vegetables for a few days according to customs. ”
She asked again, "Is it delicious?" Wouldn't it be particularly bitter? ”
"If you do it well, it won't be bitter," he said, "and I don't feel it when I'm used to it." ”
She pried up the last shepherd's cabbage, counted the current inventory, and estimated that it was not enough to make a dish for two people.
"You say how to make these wild vegetables more delicious and not too troublesome? It's just that if it's boiled, we don't have any seasoning, so it can't be delicious. ”
Xie Qingci thought for a while: "It's better to fry it with eggs." ”
"Then we're two eggs short of now, and that's one of the short-term goals right now." She clapped her hands and decided that she was going to find the eggs next.
But where can I find it? The most convenient thing is to find a place where people live and spend money to buy it.
Yu Xia was full of energy, and when he encountered a steep slope and wanted to climb up, he didn't need Xie Qingci to pull it, he grabbed the branch and rushed up.
"It should be enough to climb this slope, we can see where there is a river down there and where there is a gathering place, and I have to pay for eggs. Tsk, I knew that the nest of duck eggs on the edge of the river beach in the last issue should not have been let go. ”
Xie Qingci: "......" is still thinking about the nest of duck eggs.
Climb up and walk through a forest, and open up in front of you.
It's not that there are no trees, but that there are earthen stalks in this place, and pine and plane trees grow next to the path, and the area near the hill in the path is divided, and walnut trees are planted.
Although the walnut trees looked like they hadn't been tended for years, many of the fallen leaves on the ground had rotted into black walnut shells.
"There are traces of artificial planting, maybe there will be a vegetable patch next to it!"
They circled along the earthen stalks, from the south side of the mountain to the north side.
Cultivated land has emerged here, planted with dried sugar cane.
Yu Xia took the photo and stood in the middle of two pine trees next to the soil stalk and looked into the distance.
After comparing the photos for a while, Yu Xia let out a breath, pointed to the left front and said to Xie Qingci: "I found it, there." Although the angle from which we took the picture is not the angle we see, the shelterbelt is very conspicuous. ”
Xie Qingci also came over and looked at it: "Yes, it should be there." It just so happens that the river is also over there, and there is a mountain on this side to block the view, but if there is a village, it will usually be near the river. ”
Being close to the mountains and rivers is a habit that has been inherited from everyone looking for a place to live.
Finally finding their destination, both of them breathed a sigh of relief.
Looking at the position of the sun, noon had passed, they had not eaten lunch, and the water was also spared, and now they were hungry and thirsty.
Xie Qingci's eyes were sharp, and he saw a fruit tree at the foot of the mountain.
"It should be a specialty of this place, and the two fields next to it are also planted with that kind of fruit tree. There was a tree with two red fruits left on it. ”
I don't know what kind of fruit it is, but the plant is probably citrus.
Yu Xia licked the corners of his mouth: "Let's go, go around and take a look." ”
The way down the mountain is not so difficult, you can slide straight down, as long as the pants are strong, you can also slip all the way to the end.
There are a few fields of citrus planted below, the plants are low, and there are a lot of weeds in the field, probably because there are many citrus in this place, which are not valuable, so the owner did not take care of them much.
She and Xie Qing had a very clear purpose, and they identified the remaining two "pearls in the sea" for two minutes, like two dogs around a big stick bone.
Xie Qingci pinched one of them: "This one has dried up and can't be eaten." ”
Yu Xia poked the other one, and it was also a little deflated, but it didn't affect it, and it seemed that it could still be eaten.
"I think I've eaten this, a type of orange." She licked her lips again, carefully plucked the orange, and asked Xie Qing for a knife.
"Cut it open and see."
The peel of this orange is very thin, and when it is cut, the flesh is bloody, and it is very familiar.
She said: "I have really eaten, blood oranges, higher nutritional value than ordinary oranges, antioxidants can also improve anemia or something, my brother bought me a box before, it is quite expensive." ”
During that time, when she lost weight, she could eat some vegetables and fruits and tasteless chicken breasts, and he ci searched for fruits with high nutritional value for her everywhere, and as soon as she mentioned this, her brother went to buy it for her.
It's delicious, it's still very fragrant, and every time she peels off the peel, she puts it in the refrigerator to remove the smell, and the kind of self-contained aroma is really good.
A small blood orange was cut into quarters, and she expertly pinched the peel on both sides of a petal, and topped it up, the flesh separated from the peel, and the flesh with the red juice was fed into her mouth.
Before she could swallow it, she gave Xie Qing a thumbs up.
Xie Qingci didn't move the remaining three petals, and reminded her: "Eat slowly." ”
After swallowing it, Yu Xia felt that he was sorry for the encounter with this pearl in the sea without performing a tearful performance.
"It's so sweet that I want to sing a song to express my feelings about the ups and downs of life I have experienced before."
Xie Qingci: "...... Not necessarily. ”
She sniffed and let out a long sigh.
"The program team is really ruthless, and I have been forced to start thinking about an orange that is about to spoil, 'This is the most delicious fruit in the world'."
As she spoke, she went to get the second petal.
After picking it up, he found that Xie Qingci had no intention of eating, so he raised his chin and said, "Why don't you eat?" It's really sweet. ”
He really doesn't like to eat fruits, especially those that are more troublesome and sour. But the blood oranges, which are ripe and rotten, are really sweet, and they are all cut, so they are easy to eat.
"No, you can eat it." He was still sitting next to him cutting branches, feeling desireless.
"Teammates are blessed and share hardships, and if I eat it, you will eat it too."
Seeing that he didn't move at all, she simply peeled out the flesh in her hand and stuffed it into his mouth.
"Ah, open your mouth, you have to eat."
Xie Qingci was caught off guard and was fed, and he only had time to raise his head to pick it up, but his teeth didn't open immediately, and the red juice in the flesh flowed down his mouth.
Because of the movement of the head up, the juice flowed quickly, and in an instant, it flowed from the corner of the mouth to the neck, and passed next to the undulating Adam's apple.
Yu Xia looked at it fixedly.
Xie Qingci swallowed the flesh and lowered his head again, the red marks from his mouth to his neck made him look like he had just sucked blood.
"Is it sweet?" Yu Xia asked.
He nodded, wiping the back of his hand to his lips: "Sweet." ”
"Then eat another one," she picked up another and handed it to him, "Eat it." ”
Xie Qingci looked at her, and always felt that her eyes were a little hot.
