The family catches cicadas, the atmosphere is very good, and laughter fills the entire grove.

Especially the Emperor Taishang, who was very happy like a child.

"Haha, I've never done this kind of thing when I'm a child, I didn't expect it to be quite interesting, how can Mo'er have so many strange ideas in her head?"

The Queen Mother smiled and said, "If the little girl doesn't have these strange ideas, can you come out to play?" You don't even know what to do when you come out. ”

"That's the same, hey, there are several of them here, catch them quickly, we didn't know we could catch this thing when we were young, and we didn't have much chance to get out of the palace."

"Isn't it? Don't talk about you, even Feng'er probably hasn't played like this. ”

Ye Mulin spoke: "Imperial grandmother, don't say that my father hasn't played, my grandson hasn't played, and I went into the mountains to pick mushrooms, I grew so big, and it was the first time that the eighth sister came." ”

The Queen Mother suddenly pointed to a small hole in the ground and shouted, "Old man, look, there is a worm crawling out of here." ”

When the Emperor Taishang saw it, he immediately shouted excitedly: "Little girl, come on, Lone has found a nest of lizards." ”

Queen Mother: "......"

The corners of Ye Mulin's mouth twitched, he didn't expect that the emperor's grandfather would also have the time to rob others of their credit.

And it's also the credit of robbing the emperor's grandmother, which feels a little too shameless.

Bai Qianmo jumped up: "Where?" Grandfather Huang, where is the nest? ”

"Here, come here."

Bai Qianmo saw the small hole in the ground, her eyes lit up, and she took a stick to pick the cicada nest.

The Emperor Taishang also folded a stick, squatted down and picked the cicada nest with Bai Qianmo.

The family set out, caught a basket full of cicadas in an hour, and returned to the palace when it was almost dark.

Back at the palace, Bai Qianmo called Su Wanqing, ran to the kitchen with cicadas, and also called Aunt Li.

"Aunt Li, help me get some water." As soon as she entered the kitchen, Bai Qianmo instructed Aunt Li.

"Okay, Miss Eight, wait a minute."

Soon, Aunt Li came in with a bucket of water and took a basin to make a basin of water.

Bai Qianmo poured all the cicadas into clean water and washed them twice, then soaked the cicadas in clean water, added salt and white wine.

Bai Qianmo asked Aunt Li to go back to rest first and come back in an hour.

Aunt Li happily agreed, turned around and walked out of the kitchen.

Bai Qianmo said: "Sister Wanqing, let's go, let's go read the book for a while, and come back to clean it in an hour." ”

Su Wanqing nodded: "Okay, but Sister Qianmo, what's the use of this thing?" ”

Bai Qianmo replied with a smile: "Cook for you!" ”

"Ahh Su Wanqing's eyes widened in shock: "Sister Qianmo, don't be joking, this is a worm, how can you cook?" ”

"Don't underestimate these bugs, they're nutritious and delicious." Bai Qianmo smiled evilly: "But you have to keep it secret, don't let anyone know for the time being, I'm still waiting to see this dish served on the table at noon tomorrow, what will everyone's expressions be." ”

Su Wanqing couldn't help but feel excited: "I don't dare to imagine the expression of the emperor, Sister Qianmo, you are too bold, and the insects dare to give them to eat." ”

"Afraid of what? I dare to let the imperial grandfather and them eat absolutely good things, this insect is much more nutritious than the small crabs and snails that the imperial grandfather ate before. ”

"Alright! I'll keep it a secret for you, you're so bad! ”

Bai Qianmo smiled and admitted without hesitation: "Hehe, I also think I'm a little bad, but the starting point is good, I'll let the imperial grandfather supplement their nutrition." ”

Su Wanqing smiled and nodded: "Let's go!" I'll accompany you to read a book. ”

The two little girls returned to Bai Qianmo's room, Xiao Jiu was seriously learning to read and write, the sixth child was drawing on the side, and Ye Muchen was holding a medical book and reading it carefully.

Bai Qianmo and Su Wanqing didn't bother them, they each found a book and read it quietly.

An hour later, Su Wanqing put down the book, quietly came to Bai Qianmo's side and whispered, "Sister Qianmo, the time has come." ”

"Oh, good."

Bai Qianmo folded the medical book into a corner, closed the book and went to the kitchen with Su Wanqing.

Aunt Li had already lit candles and waited in the kitchen, and when she saw Bai Qianmo coming, she asked, "Miss Eight, what are you going to do next?" ”

Bai Qianmo replied with a smile: "Aunt Li, you help me get some water first, and we will clean up these insects together." ”

"Okay, I'll go."

Bai Qianmo put her hand into the small satchel and quietly took out three toothbrushes from the space.

Waiting for Aunt Li to bring the water, Bai Qianmo gave the toothbrush to Aunt Li and Su Wanqing, and began to teach Aunt Li and Su Wanqing to clean up the cicadas.

One by one, the three of them picked up the bodies of the cicadas and washed them, then rinsed them with clean water, and finally soaked them in salt water again.

By the time the three of them cleaned up the cicadas, it was already midnight.

Bai Qianmo said: "It's finally done, Aunt Li, go back and rest, I'll deal with this bug tomorrow, it's hard!" ”

Aunt Li smiled lovingly: "What did Miss Eight say?" This is the old slave's business, and you should go back to rest, it's the middle of the night. ”

"Mmmm, Sister Wanqing, let's go back!"

The two little girls hurried back to the room to rest, and Aunt Li closed the kitchen door before going back to rest.

A good night's sleep.

Wake up the next morning.

Bai Qianmo went to practice for half an hour first, and then had breakfast.

After reading the medical book for an hour and a half, she took Su Wanqing to the kitchen.

After cleaning the cicadas twice, Bai Qianmo talked about the cooking process on the side, and asked Su Wan to fry the cicadas.

With Bai Qianmo watching and commanding, Su Wanqing's first explosion of cicadas was very successful.

After coming out of the pot, Bai Qianmo couldn't wait to let Su Wanqing taste the cicadas she fried herself.

"Sister Wanqing, can you taste one, is it fragrant?"

Su Wanqing frowned and resisted: "I don't want it, it's too terrible to watch." ”

Although the cicada insects have been cleaned up very cleanly, after all, they are insects, and Su Wanqing really doesn't dare to try it.

Bai Qianmo looked at Aunt Li again: "Aunt Li, you can taste one!" ”

Aunt Li shook her head decisively: "Eighth Miss, the old slave doesn't dare to taste it." ”

"It's okay! It's really fragrant, this one is more fragrant than small crabs and snails, and it's also bugs. What's not to taste? ”

Aunt Li still shook her head: "The old slave really doesn't dare." ”

Bai Qianmo shrugged: "If you don't dare to taste it, forget it, I'll take it to the imperial grandfather to taste." ”

Su Wanqing said: "Sister Qianmo, you better wait for a while and then take it, I'm afraid that you will scare everyone away as soon as you serve it to the table." ”

"It makes sense, Aunt Li, I will personally serve this dish at the end, this is the finale."

"Okay Miss Eight."

Before lunch, when all the dishes were ready, Bai Qianmo and Su Wanqing appeared at the door of the main hall with a large plate of fried cicadas.

Xiao Momo smiled and said, "Today's finale is here!" ”
