Chapter 19: Confused Thoughts
"You ......" Li Yinwan hugged the carp tightly, but after the fish came out of the water, it instinctively reacted to survive and tossed back and forth.
"Hey, if you don't want the fish to jump back, give it to me." Sheng Qian looked at Li Yinwan and said in a joking voice.
"Why do I believe you?" Li Yinwan held the fish and saw a wooden table on the shore.
In the early years, there were state officials who came to visit, wanting to enrich the lives of the villagers and let the village chief put the chess table, but it was not peaceful in the past few years and had not been used for a long time.
Li Yinwan put the fish on the wooden table, picked up a big stone from the ground, and with a strong force, knocked the fish unconscious.
That's it!
"I said, Hercules, do you know how to make fish belly?" Sheng Qian held a dog's tail grass and looked at Li Yinwan with disdain, as if he couldn't see Xu Yuanhan next to him.
"Wouldn't you?" Li Yinwan thought of the delicacies of the later world, such as steamed fish, sauerkraut fish and grilled fish, but she loved sauerkraut alone.
"Will you too?" Sheng Qian tilted his head to look at Xu Yuanhan.
Xu Yuanhan only felt that this question was boring and did not answer. He patted Li Yinwan on the back and asked her if she still wanted to pick ingredients?
Li Yinwan thought of the abundant ingredients in the space, and instantly felt that he didn't need it much. But you have to pretend and go for a walk in the mountains.
"Go ahead, I'm tired." Xu Yuanhan covered his chest and coughed lightly.
"That's right, I can go." Sheng Qian's eyes smiled into a line.
Li Yinwan glanced at Sheng Qian, a little disgusted, but after all, he was a relative of the Xu family who had met for the first time, and he still had to get by on face.
Xu Yuanhan took Li Yinwan's fish and put it in the burlap bag he brought, and then put the fish on the iron fork into the sack.
"I can't use this iron fork, it's dangerous to go up the mountain, you can keep it for self-defense." Xu Yuanhan handed the iron fork to Li Yinwan, and then left.
"So, you're husband and wife?" Sheng Qian squinted at Li Yinwan with a look of disbelief.
"Well, sort of."
Sheng Qian walked along the mountain road, jumping forward. Li Yinwan recognized the pepper and the false Su, at this time the summer is Futian, and it is the picking season.
After picking these two things, Li Yinwan touched the stone, came to the spice room of the space, and directly took away a bag of ingredients for rattan pepper sauerkraut fish.
Very cautious, she threw away the plastic outer packaging, put the spices inside into an empty tea bag, and brought it out.
It was only a blink of an eye, but Sheng Qian seemed to see through everything.
"What's that little white pouch in your sack?" Sheng Qianle asked.
"Secret recipe." Li Yinwan said confidently.
Indeed, secret, recipe.
"There's a snake over there." Sheng Qian looked behind Li Yinwan, but Li Yinwan didn't look back.
"Can you deceive people twice with the same routine?" Li Yinwan saw Sheng Qian step by step and realized that something was wrong.
She slowly turned her head and found a giant snake, standing upright with its upper body, looking at herself, ready to attack at any moment.
Isn't it, dying here?
Li Yinwan wanted to go to the space to get the utensils, but it seemed that there was no time.
She thought that they all said that if you hit a snake and hit seven inches, there may be a way to live.
But where is Seven Inches? Li Yinwan's hands trembled a little.
Seeing that the snake was about to attack, Li Yinwan picked up the iron fork, used all his strength, and with one movement, the fork hit the lower third of the snake's head.
You're hit in one go! It can be said that it is very, fast and ruthless!
The snake struggled a few times, then died.
This scene also startled Li Yinwan, and her hands trembled again.
Sheng Qian applauded, "She is worthy of being a strong woman!" Snakes are not afraid. ”
But she was too focused just now, gathering the strength of her whole body, and she only felt that her body was hollowed out at the moment.
head, fell heavily......
When she opened her eyes, she found herself in the pavilion by the lake, where Sheng Qian was throwing stones and playing.
"Hercules, awake?" Sheng Qian glanced over here from time to time and saw Li Yinwan sitting up.
"...... just now" Li Yinwan felt that his head was very heavy, and after thinking about it, he seemed to have hit a snake.
"You fainted on the mountain just now...... Sheng Qian walked over, looked at Li Yinwan's eyes, and said with a smile.
"Did I hit a snake?" Li Yinwan suddenly felt that his memory was very vague.
"No, maybe it's heat stroke." Sheng Qian patted the pillars of the pavilion and patted the dirt on his body.
What's going on?
Li Yinwan was a little confused, could it be that he was hallucinating? Impossible.
"But I remember, you later said that I am not afraid of snakes." Li Yinwan was in a trance, and a kind of stunned and dazed came out of his mind.
"You're mistaken, I never said that." Sheng Qian touched the back of his head, and the look in his eyes was confused, not like he was pretending.
Li Yinwan thought of a movie he had watched, from 2001, "A Beautiful Mind". Now, like John Nash, are you experiencing all hallucinations?
So, which ones are true? Which ones are fake?
A sense of fear that had never been felt before hit him, making Li Yinwan's eyes blurred.
……
"Awake?" When I opened my eyes again, Li Yinwan was already lying on the kang, and Mrs. Xu and Mrs. Chen Yinhua were all looking at themselves with concern.
"Mother......" Li Yinwan pinched the right side of her face vigorously with her right hand and felt pain.
"Everyone is waiting, what about you making fish, have you rested?" Mrs. Xu saw that Li Yinwan was probably asleep, so she asked her to make fish.
Li Yinwan got up and asked who sent it.
"Sheng Qian, that kid, I brought it back for you, but I have to let the family eat a few more pieces of fish and meat to express my gratitude." Mrs. Xu praised Sheng Qian, but Mrs. Chen Yinhua did not answer.
Li Yinwan got up late and went to cook the fish.
In the kitchen, she found her sack, turned out the peppercorns and fake su inside, and also took out the bag of spice tea bags.
Wrong? It's all there, and there's nothing wrong with memory.
She removed the scales, hollowed out the belly of the fish, cleaned it, and then opened a flower knife on the skin of the fish, turned the front and back into one side, and put it on a plate.
Pour in some soy sauce to taste, then sprinkle with Sichuan pepper and fake soybean, and steam in a pot.
The seasoning packet is set aside for another fish.
At this moment, Chen Yinhua walked in smelling the fragrance and whispered a word in Li Yinwan's ear.
"Your mother called you."
Li Yinwan washed his hands, let Xu Yuanhan greet the pot, and then walked out of the kitchen. At the doorway, she saw the iron fork, which still had fish blood on it.
Perhaps, this is a key point.
Mrs. Xu was chatting with Xu Sun and Xu Wang, and when she saw Li Yin coming late, she blurted out: "The third family, you and the third family go and send another fish to the village chief." ”
Li Yin will be willing. Mrs. Xu's meaning is obvious, if she wants to live in the village temporarily, she must obtain the consent of the village chief and have a good relationship.
When she returned to the kitchen, she didn't say that she would go to the village chief's house, but asked Xu Yuanhan lightly: "After giving me the iron fork, how long will it take for you to come back?" ”
"I didn't give it to you." Xu Yuanhan was a little inexplicable, "You, your brain is injured?" ”
Li Yinwan shook his head and saw that the stunned fish was just left. She found a clean sack, filled the fish, and asked Xu Yuanhan to deliver it with her. The task of looking at the pot was handed over to Mrs. Xu.
"Our village chief, it's not easy to speak, you guys......" Sheng Qian watched them leave, looked at Li Yinwan's back, and pondered for a long time.
