Pei's mother, who was squatting and rubbing pheasant feathers, suddenly stood up and said to Pei Qing, you chop the pheasant and simmer the vermicelli, and I will go to the garden to get some vegetables. Although Pei Qing can't cook, he can cook simply. He walked over and took the fat pheasant from Pei's mother and walked into the kitchen, and You Yun followed in. Hu Juanxiu sat in the hall very well, but some of her emotions and thoughts were not regular, she looked at the kitchen with a little dim light inside, and felt that the countryside was not very good. She still had Pei's mother's wrinkled and very old face in her mind, and she thought that the countryside was heavy, tired, and suffered, and she also subconsciously considered that You Yun came here just to play, and she couldn't let her get along with Pei Qing, if she got along with Pei Qing once she got out of her relationship and married Pei Qing, then she would have a very hard time like Pei's mother in the future.

Near noon, Pei's real name came back, he came back empty-handed with a shotgun, sweating profusely. Sometimes that's how it is, hunting in the jungle consumes time and doesn't necessarily pay off. Today is still a harvest, I shot a pheasant and let Pei Qing take it to the city and sell it. But when he approached the door of the house, he found the colorful pheasant feathers all over the ground, and he muttered: No! Could it be that the son took the pheasant and sold it in the city? No way. At this time, a smell of pheasant meat came to his nose, and he understood that Pei Qing did not sell the pheasant, but cooked it.

Suddenly, a white and innocent strange woman sitting in the hall stood up and signaled to him with a smile on her face, he nodded politely, and was about to ask, when the clever Pei Qing flashed out of nowhere and took the shotgun in Pei Benming's hand, rubbed it like a precious object, and then gave a brief introduction to his father and You Yun's mother and You Yun. Pei Benming heard the clue and knew that You Yun's mother was accompanying You Yun to learn shooting, so he told them that this shotgun is not fun, it is okay to learn shooting, and they must find a good venue, but they must pay attention to safety, which includes themselves and others. Pei Qing said, Dad, in the afternoon, I took You Yun to Shibi Mountain, where few people go, to learn to shoot and try to ensure safety.

Lunch is cooked, Pei's mother has already come back from the vegetable garden to cook and is busy, she intends to give her son more time to play with the girl from the city, and she doesn't call them to do it when she washes the vegetables, and she does it alone. At this moment, when it was time to eat, he called Pei Qing to come over to set the table and serve food. She took off the girdle, scooped water in the jar and washed her hands, and approached the fragrant table full of peasant dishes, and said to their mother and daughter, There is no good hospitality in the countryside, and I have wronged you.

Where, where? The dishes in the countryside also have a unique flavor, nagging you. Hu Juanxiu sat close to the dinner table as she spoke, and in front of her was a bowl of amaranth that was as red as blood, with tender leaves and stems, which could arouse people's appetite. When Pei Benming, the head of this family, politely called for food, she stretched out her chopsticks and did not pick up the most high-grade pheasant meat on the table, but stuffed a spoonful of amaranth in front of her into her mouth, and praised Pei's mother's cooking skills while eating. Pei's mother was busy, and she was the last to be served, and when she heard the woman in the city praise herself, she looked at her happily and found that she was eating amaranth, so she used chopsticks to pick two pieces of fat and oily pheasant meat and stuffed them into her rice bowl, saying that this is game, if you think it is delicious, you can eat more in the future. Hu Juanxiu said, why are you embarrassed to eat for nothing?

What's the matter? Pei's mother said that Pei Qing's father can hunt, and the next time he comes, he may be able to eat hares, badger pork or something.

Pei Qingzheng on the other side of the table gave You Yun a bulging pheasant leg. You Yun, who was burying her head in the taste, turned her face and said, thank you, if I learn to shoot, I will shoot a pheasant in return. You Benming looked at her and smiled, Then it will be our turn to thank you.

Hu Juanxiu ate a few pieces of pheasant meat, feeling a little tired of eating, and used chopsticks to pick up the amaranth in front of her, and Pei's mother noticed it again. She said, you are a distinguished guest, how can you just eat side dishes?

Your side dishes are also delicious. Hu Juanxiu had already put a large basket of amaranth into the bowl, which could have been stuffed into her mouth immediately, but she didn't, she didn't want the countrymen to see her gluttony, she subconsciously wanted to maintain the dignity of the city people, especially the city ladies.

I saw her pick up the amaranth in the bowl with chopsticks, intending to eat it twice, and her movements showed a kind of literate quietness. Suddenly, she threw the amaranth that was clamped up and ready to be put into her mouth under the dining table very quickly, her face changed sharply, she turned her head as if she was afraid that someone would find out, and quickly regained her calm, and there was a slight smile on her face, but this time it was forced, and it was difficult to see, including her action of inadvertently throwing away the few amaranth leaves left in the rice bowl in the Pei family.

She has always loved to eat amaranth, why is she unusual, and she wants to spoil amaranth so almost secretly? It turned out that she found a fried white maggot in a leaf of amaranth.

How did this maggot get into the amaranth? After a little thought, she understood that maggots generally breed in the farmer's manure pit, and fertilizing in the farmer's vegetable garden is to get the manure in the manure pit or something, it is conceivable that the maggots entrained in the manure remain on the vegetable leaves, and you can't find it if you are a little sloppy when pinching the vegetables.

Seeing the maggots wrapped in amaranth, she not only lost her appetite, but also became disgusted, and secretly regretted that she should not have promised her daughter, nor should she accompany her daughter to Peishan Pass. She thought of the shit she stepped on in the alley, and she didn't feel good in her heart. She even considered that she couldn't let You Yun and Pei Qing get right, and she would prevent them from contacting in the future, unless Pei Qing was not from this mountain, and this ghost place was dirty. A coherent mental activity made her speak less, and she didn't even have the action of picking vegetables.

Pei's mother noticed her abnormality and said politely, why are you sitting empty, are these peasant dishes not to your taste?

It's not, it's not. Hu Juanxiu said this in her mouth, but she complained vigorously in her heart, it was dirty, where did I dare to eat vegetables? But this kind of face-saving talk cannot be spoken. If the Pei family added vegetables to her bowl, she wouldn't eat it. Of course, she couldn't do it if she refused people's kindness outright, so she had an idea and lied that my stomach was upset, maybe it was too early in the morning in the city, and it was unhygienic to mess around early.

You Yun was still eating happily, and a fat pheasant leg was eaten until only one bone spur remained. Hearing Hu Juanxiu say that, she said to her, Mom, in the morning, I also ate breakfast, why am I okay after eating, but you have an upset stomach after eating?

How old is Mom, what age are you? The resistance of the thin girl is stronger. Hu Juanxiu didn't have the opportunity to tell her daughter the details of witnessing dead maggots in amaranth at Pei's house, so she had to say this, and she could only say this.
