Chapter 99: Into the Mountains to Fight Acorns Second Watch

While working, chatting, especially talking about parents, is definitely an effective way for women to enhance their relationship, and it didn't take long for each other to feel a lot closer.

The topic gradually became bold and deepened.

Someone humbly asks for advice, "How are you a trained man, so diligent and capable will it hurt people?" ”

This is simply the voice of all women, looking at her one by one, with a desire for guidance in their eyes.

Gu Huanxi said helplessly, "I haven't been trained, really, he is already very diligent and capable, we live in the same village, can you still not know?" ”

Everyone was skeptical, Xu Huaiyi was diligent and capable, but it was far from the way it is now, and he grabbed all the work, and he almost offered his daughter-in-law.

Gu Huanxi saw everyone's expressions, and said half-truthfully, "Maybe he used to live in the old mansion and lived together without a separate family, so it's not easy for him to show it......"

Hearing this, most of the people believed it, with Mrs. Zhao here, if Xu Huaiyi dared to dig out his heart and lungs, serve his daughter-in-law before and after the saddle, Gu Huanxi would not be squeezed to death by his mother-in-law and concubine?

So, is it more comfortable for the young couple to live alone? As soon as the family was divided, Xu Huaiyi liberated his nature, and the cheap one was not Gu Huanxi.

Gu Huanxi continued, "If he wasn't diligent and able to love his daughter-in-law, my father wouldn't have chosen him as his son-in-law in the first place, my father still has a good eye for people......"

The meaning in this tone was profound, and everyone boasted that they suddenly realized.

That's right, Gu Xiucai is a scholar, and he has traveled from south to north, he has so much knowledge, his vision will definitely not be bad, since he was able to choose Xu Huaiyi at the beginning, and gave up such a large sum of silver, he must have felt that it was 'worth the money', he could take care of his daughter, otherwise, there are so many young students in the village, why did he single out Xu Huaiyi?

Therefore, how important it is to have a good father, a lifetime of happiness is stable.

Gu Huanxi saw that they were busy peeling the walnut shell to dry, so he taught a way to eat fresh walnuts, "Take out the kernels, tear off the outer layer of skin, and try to tear it clean, otherwise the soybean milk will be bitter, soak the beans in advance, add almonds, almonds should also be peeled, if there are sesame seeds at home, it is best to add some sesame seeds into it, the taste will be more mellow, after these few things are mixed, use a small stone mill to grind fine hair, no stone grinding, mash it with a stone mortar, and then filter out the slag, cook it and drink, drink it this way, not only delicious, but also nutritious, It is very suitable for the elderly and children to replenish their bodies, we are in a hurry, it is easy to break the foundation, if you can drink one night a day, you can support the capital more smoothly......"

The women all listened to this, and they didn't doubt the authenticity, because just looking at the faces of Gu Huanxi's family of three was very convincing.

After walking for so long, everyone else doesn't look good, their family is good, their faces are still white and red, and they still have meat, do you say they are angry?

Xu Yangliu couldn't help but ask curiously, "Third sister-in-law, do you drink this every day?" ”

Gu Huanxi smiled dryly, "That's not true, this has to be grinded every day, cough, it's a little troublesome, I made a pot of fried noodles before I traveled, that saves trouble, you can drink it by brewing it with hot water every day, and it is also very nutritious." ”

As she spoke, she shared the recipe for fried noodles again.

But when everyone heard that this fried noodles had to use white noodles, sesame seeds, sugar and meat oil, they all shook their heads and retreated.

It's more affordable to grind that soy milk, anyway, there is no shortage of beans in every family, and walnuts can now be made from local materials, and you won't feel distressed if you eat as much as you want.

The night is getting darker, on the man's side, Xu Huaiyi has already told the story of Journey to the West, even the women have no strength to work, their minds have been hooked, the bright fire reflects the fascinated faces, and the hard work of the day is so simply soothed.

That night, the villagers slept very soundly.

However, Xu Huaiyi was not at ease, so he woke up twice and circled around a few scattered courtyards, but he didn't find any suspicious situations and potential dangers, so he was more stable.

The next day, the villagers were thinking about going up the mountain, and they all got up one after another before dawn, fetching water, collecting firewood, cooking, and busy with lively work.

Many people drink soybean milk with walnuts and almonds, not to mention, after cooking, there is no beany smell, but a strong bean fragrance and walnut flavor, the elderly and children like to drink, especially I heard that it can nourish the body, drink it more energetically, and the filtered bean dregs are not wasted, according to the method taught by Gu Huanxi, add some wild vegetables and Shu millet noodles to it, simply use salt and green onion to adjust the taste, and then put it on the pan and fry it with oil, it tastes charred on the outside and tender on the inside, and it is much more fragrant than the nest.

Xu Huaiyi also drank this in the morning, but it was a high-end version, with more sesame seeds and sugar added to it, as well as peanuts secretly put in, and the taste was more fragrant.

Gu Xiaoyu liked this bite very much, drank two bowls, and ate a lot of bean dregs cakes, Gu Huanxi made bean dregs cakes, with eggs and white flour added to them, and the seasoning was richer.

It's a pity that she can only stare dryly, pouting aggrievedly, and looking like she wants to cry or not, but her father Xu Huaiyi is distressed, picks up a cake, and stuffs it in her daughter's mouth, and when she licks enough, he eats it again.

Gu Huanxi's eyes hurt when he saw it, and he wanted to scold, there were too many people around, and it was really hard to rub his face, so he could only put his face aside and be out of sight.

However, Gu Xiaoyu felt that he had learned another trick, and it turned out that he could coax his sister like this.

After eating, Xu Huaiyi took the villagers up the mountain, of course not all of them, they had to leave a group of people to watch the house, in case of an accident, it was too dangerous to leave only some women and old people here.

Before going up the mountain, Xu Huaiyi had observed with a telescope, where was there, he was clear, so he took the lead and led the team, and the efficiency was extremely high, and he didn't have to take the wrong road at all, he went straight to the destination.

Persimmons and walnuts have been picked a lot, the villagers are not rare, more or go to the chestnuts, that thing is delicious and anti-hunger, more popular than other things, but in this mountain, there are not too many chestnut trees, but the acorns that are somewhat similar to the appearance of chestnuts are flooded, almost a small hill is full of acorn trees, the trees are densely turned, and a lot of them have fallen under the trees, one by one like a small spinning top.

Xu Huaiyi looked excited.

The villagers frowned, frustrated.

Village Chief Xu said with a tangled expression, "It would be nice if it were chestnuts, so many, every household has a point, and you don't have to worry about starvation if you can keep it until you eat it in the capital, but this acorn is not only numb, astringent, and difficult to swallow, and it is not good to eat it, and even pigs disdain to eat ......it."

Hearing this, Xu Huaiyi said, "That's what you won't eat, this acorn is well handled, the taste is not much worse than chestnuts, ground into acorn powder, made into acorn tofu, delicious and anti-hunger." ”

In the previous life, when they lived in the era, few people ate acorn flour anymore, but when there was a famine in the fifties and sixties, acorns were definitely life-saving food. In autumn, the whole village has to go out to the mountains to hunt acorns, which family doesn't carry a few hundred catties back?

When Village Chief Xu heard this, his eyes lit up, "Really? Can it really be delicious? No, we don't want it to be delicious, as long as it's not so bitter that it's hard to swallow. ”

Xu Huaiyi nodded, "Don't worry, let the big guys open up and pick it up, with this thing, we can not only survive the capital, but also survive the whole winter." ”

After all, there is such a big piece. (End of chapter)
