There is indeed no green vegetables sold here in Sanyi Town, that is because there are varieties in the backyard of every house here, and they can't be sold at all, so there is no such business.

There are a lot of chickens, ducks and fish meat, especially fish, there is a lot of water here, there is a lake not far from the south of the town, and there is a river in the north, and many people from the surrounding villages will go to catch fish to sell in the town.

She is going to buy a few in a while, and she can raise the ones that she can't eat today, anyway, there is an empty water tank at home.

In addition to cutting some pork, and then going next door to buy a chicken and come back to kill, the guests must be sumptuous.

At a glance, you can see that Xiao Danniang is indeed only harsh on herself, and she is really not a stingy person to others.

Especially when Li Hui'er called her father back, Qian Yan looked at Li Lao'er, who was tall and strong, and as chubby as his mother, and felt more and more that Xiao Danniang might really have some problems in her heart.

Li Lao's second name is Li Laifu, his brother's name is Li Laigui, Aunt Xiao actually gave birth to five children, three sons and two daughters, but one son and two daughters did not live, so Li Laigui and Li Laifu lived together.

The two sons are very filial and obedient to their own mothers, so Aunt Xiao is so rich, with a wide heart and a fat body.

After listening to Aunt Xiao talk about the acquaintance with Tilt Yan, and why it took more than ten days to come back, Li Laifu was afraid, and he was going to kowtow to Tilt Yan and them at that time.

Although this is not a life-saving grace, it is also a blessing to take the risk of sending his mother and wife and daughter back.

Jin Yang hurriedly supported him, didn't let him kneel, and said in his mouth: "Second Brother Li, your gift is too much, we are also going here, but we just took the eldest lady and them along the way, and I don't deserve such a big gift from you." ”

Qian Yan also gave Jin Yang a help beside him: "Yes, Second Brother Li, aren't we still going to bother with you for lunch, if you are so polite, then we will be embarrassed to stay any longer." ”

Aunt Xiao hurriedly said to her son: "Not much courtesy, not much courtesy, it's good that the second child's mind has arrived, instead of making these fictitious, why don't you let your daughter-in-law get more delicious food." ”

After speaking, he turned to Qian Yan, "Don't be in a hurry to leave, take a nap after lunch, stay with us for one night, you have also seen, our accommodation here is quite spacious, and we can live completely."

Tomorrow Hui'er and I can take you to Congzhu River to see, don't you play around, and the scenery here is also good.

In particular, there is also the Doll Lake in the Congzhu River, which is a branch of the Miluo River, and the fish in it are big and numerous, and you can go fishing by yourself or go to the net to catch it.

Doll Lake is surrounded by mountains on three sides, the mountains are densely wooded, the mountains are connected with water, the water reflects the mountain scenery, not to mention how beautiful, there is a high stone in the center of the lake, like a small doll standing with open hands, the name of the lake comes from this. ”

Qian Yan had seen it with her divine sense before, and knew that there was a lake and a river on one side, but she didn't look carefully at the stone in the middle of the lake, but now when she heard Aunt Xiao say this, she "looked" carefully and found that it really looked like a little doll.

In the center of the lake, there is an island with a diameter of 100 meters, but it is hidden under the water and it is more than a meter deep, and only the stone is exposed to the water.

It is estimated that if there is less rain and the water level drops a little, the island will be exposed.

Aunt Xiao saw that Qian Yan was a little moved, so she told her the legend of the doll lake.

According to legend, this Doll Lake was originally called Yanlai Lake, and many geese will fly in in autumn to inhabit this lake.

There is a family of three living by the lake, the parents are making tofu, the child is just five years old, one day the parents went to the village to deliver tofu to others, so the child was left at home alone.

Because he lived close to the lake, he told his children not to go to the water to play, but to stay in his yard.

Afraid that the child would be disobedient, he locked the courtyard door from the outside, so that the child could not get out.

Unexpectedly, in the pit where soybean milk was boiled in the yard, there was a charcoal fire that was not extinguished, and I don't know why an evil wind came to blow the charcoal fire and blew it onto the firewood stack next to it, and it directly started a big fire!

Although the child is small, he is also sensible, and he is in a hurry to put out the fire, but the wind rises and the fire is rising, and it is useless for him to scoop water with a scoop.

The fire grew bigger and bigger, and finally even the house was set on fire. At this moment, the geese perched on the surface of the lake flew up one after another, directly above the courtyard, and then it began to rain in the air.

It turned out that the geese came one by one with a mouthful of water and spit it out towards the burning place, just like rain.

Once, twice, I don't know how many times I went back and forth, but the fire was extinguished, and this scene happened to be seen by the people who lived nearby and rushed to put out the fire, and they all said that the gods had appeared and sent geese to put out the fire.

But when the child's parents returned, the child was nowhere to be found, and they couldn't find it.

The people around said that the child might have died in the fire, after all, the fire had already burned when the geese came to put out the fire, and they didn't hear the child's cry, so the child should have been gone by then.

But the child's parents didn't believe it, they thought that if they didn't see the bones, the child should still be alive, still searching for the neighborhood every day, and would kneel by the lake and beg the geese for help.

Since the geese could help put out the fire, they must have been able to find their children, so after a few months, they all fell ill one after another, and they did not see their children come back until they died.

But on the third day after their deaths, the bodies had just been buried, and there was suddenly an additional stone statue in the center of Yanlai Lake. How did it become a stone statue?

Then there was a rumor that the child was rescued by those geese at that time, but the injury was too serious and he was not saved, so he was buried directly at the bottom of the lake.

Now the child's soul feels that his parents have also passed away, and in order to make his parents feel at ease, he shows his body in the form of a stone statue, so that his parents can fulfill their wishes and go to reincarnation with peace of mind.

Since then, the doll statue in the center of the lake disappears every autumn when the geese come, and it will come out again in the spring, and then the lake will be renamed Doll Lake. ”

Tilt Yan and Yuan Bao listened to the story with relish, and then they communicated with Jinyang and decided to stay here for a day, play for a day tomorrow and then go.

They wanted to see what was going on with the stone statue of the doll, why it disappeared in autumn and then reappeared in spring.

Is it really the spirit of a doll in it? Although this may be a legend, it's not that they haven't seen the appearance of a soul, and there are some fantasy things, formations and the like, maybe there is something really and it is not necessarily.

Qianyan's divine sense can only see superficial things, and fantasy things still can't be seen, but Jin Yang and Chougu can see it, but they have to go over to contact and observe, if the divine sense investigates, this is a bit far away.

And Qian Yan really wants to fish, she hasn't fished for a long time, so she can go fishing in Congzhu River.

Even if you can't catch fish, you can directly collect some into the space, and the few fish raised in her ring space were originally intended for ornamental use, but now they can't grow fat, and they are already more than a dozen catties, and they want to eat them.

Let's get some fresh fish for a change, put those fat fish in the Jinyang space, and put some smaller ones in her small pool, otherwise you won't be able to swim.

Aunt Xiao saw that they agreed to stay at home for one night, and happily went to help clean up the house.

Li Laifu and Xiao Danniang were busy with the noon meal in the kitchen, while Li Huier was coaxing ingots to play.

Fortunately, although the weather is warm here, Qian Yan bought a thin hat for Yuanbao, so she doesn't have to worry about revealing her identity by exposing her ears.

And the ingots themselves don't understand anything, they will pay attention to it.

Qian Yan followed to help Aunt Xiao, after all, she was cleaning up the house for them, so she couldn't let the old lady do it alone.

Although the old lady here is really not old, not much different from her mother's age, she is just in her forties, and she can only be regarded as middle-aged in the future, but she is also an elder, right?

With Jin Yang here, the house has to be cleaned up and two rooms, after all, Jin Yang has to live in one by himself.

It's not troublesome, it's easy to clean up, it's usually clean, just wipe the bed board, spread the bedding, and then burn a carbon basin to remove the moisture in the house.

Qian Yan came over to help, and Aunt Xiao didn't stop her from doing it, but praised her a few times, saying that she worked neatly, and she was ingenious at first glance.

She may be a little embarrassed, she may be spiritual, but she is really not very skillful, at least not a female celebrity or anything.

Although Aunt Xiao feels that it is not good to let the guests do it themselves, she feels that if she refuses hard, it seems to be a little outward, since it is the house she wants to live in, she can clean it up according to her own ideas, and she will live more at ease.

And you can also ask Qianyan's preferences, ask if you want to put something in the house, smoke incense or something.

Of course, she doesn't need it, she doesn't necessarily sleep in this room at night, she may just go into the space, just to make a show.

When the two of them had cleaned up the house and the food was ready, they came to call them over for dinner.

When they returned to the hall, the meal was already on the table, and it was waiting for the two of them.

Tilt Yan and Aunt Xiao washed their hands in the wooden basin on the side, and after washing their hands, Aunt Xiao pulled Tilt Yan to sit on the main seat.

said to them: "Come on, come on, try my daughter-in-law's craftsmanship, it's not that I boast about it, my Danniang's craftsmanship is counted in this town, you brothers and sisters don't want to see each other, just treat it as your own family, which one you like." ”

Then he added a chopstick to Qian Yan and Yuan Bao to each add a chopstick to the meat on the belly of the fish, and Li Laifu also gave Jin Yang a chopstick and poured a glass of rice wine.

This rice wine has a very low degree of alcohol, but it just has a wine taste, so it won't be intoxicating when you drink it.

The three of them thanked him, picked up the fish and put it in his mouth, well, the taste is really good, this fish is very simple, it is fried in oil, the noodles are fried golden brown, and some sauce is put on it, this taste is really fragrant.

Both Qian Yan and Yuan Bao narrowed their eyes when they ate, and asked Xiao Danniang how to make this fish.

Xiao Danniang was very happy that her skills were praised, and while she was busy giving Li Lai Fubu dishes, she told her the trick of frying fish.

"First of all, you have to heat the pan with cold oil, and put some salt in the oil......"

Qian Yan nodded while listening, and wrote down what she said, sure enough, the wisdom of the ancients should not be underestimated, and people used the simplest seasonings to make such delicious things.

There is also chicken soup, which looks very light, but the taste is very fresh and fragrant, the soup can be drunk, the meat can also be eaten, it is placed in a casserole, and there is a small charcoal stove underneath, and some vegetables can be cooked in it.

The green vegetables are taken out by Dump Yan, the tender ones are boiled in the soup and eaten, and the old ones are fried directly.

What Qian Yan took out was the more common cabbage sum and celery, like cucumber and beans, she didn't take it out.

The main thing is that there are no those, and the season is not right, even in the south, it is not that any vegetables grow all year round, and the greens and other plants are planted later, and there can be them in winter, and there are no others.

So Xiao Danniang fried a choy sum, and then fried celery and meat slices, I don't know if the sauce she put was good or what, anyway, Qian Yan thought it was much more delicious than their fried.

She wasn't too embarrassed to ask all the other people's practices, after all, this thing depends on the mastery of the heat in addition to the seasoning.

The staple food is rice, and the rice here is not as oily and delicious as the rice in the north, because it is a two-season rice, so it is a little dry, and some sticky and soft, and it is not as white as the rice of later generations, which is a comparison that is relatively yellow.

However, the rice here is steamed in a wooden barrel, and as long as the water is put just right, it is still delicious.

With the dishes for dinner, Tanyan ate two large bowls in one go, and then she was a little embarrassed.

While eating, she still paid attention to Xiao Dan and her mother, and when she saw that the two of them picked up the vegetables and sandwiched a few chopsticks, she didn't eat the rice after eating a small half bowl, and the fish didn't move.

It was Li Laifu who served them chicken soup, and they didn't drink a mouthful, so that Li Laifu had no choice but to eat a bowl of rice and stop eating.

Xiao Danniang also tried to serve him vegetables, and the chicken soup was also poured into his bowl, and finally he was stuffed with three bowls of chicken soup.

Because she wanted to give the pastries to Yuanbao before, she thought that she would be good to him as long as she was a man, it seems that people are good to their own men, and they didn't give Jinyang and Yuanbao a chopstick dish when they didn't see it.

Also, people must only be good to their own men, this is ancient times, if you are a man, you are good to others, then you are not looking for death.

Qian Yan glanced at Aunt Xiao, the other party didn't look at her son and daughter-in-law, obviously the other party was used to the style of her daughter-in-law, eating the food in the bowl without changing her face, and greeting them from time to time.
