It had just rained in the morning in the mountain village, and the air was clear.

The tea room on the second floor is half indoor, half outdoor, and the outdoor part is just blocked by a few big trees in front of the courtyard.

Xu Suizhu put away her luggage, washed her face, and went downstairs with Lu Da Boss refreshed, and found that the man and the children were not there, and asked Lin Yujuan, who went to the tea room first, "Where are the children?"

"Xiao Yi is still in the room, and he refuses to come down until he completes today's study task. Other children...... Playing in the water by the stream. ”

The side balcony of the tea room overlooks the pavilion on the hill, and the babbling stream flows down the slope from the stone wall behind the pavilion to the small fish pond in the backyard of the farmhouse.

At first, the children teased the little macaque in the shade of the tree, but as soon as the monkey jumped up the tree, the children waited for it to come down, and then squatted on the edge of the fish pond to watch the fish.

Xiao Baozi introduced the "little black" and "little red" in the fish pond to the friends who came to the farmhouse for the first time, although it may not be the two black carp and red carp when he named it, but it does not prevent the children from believing that they are lying on the side of the pool one by one, "Xiao Hei" and "Xiao Hong" shouted vigorously.

After that, I don't know who mentioned "I want to go up the mountain to catch fish in the stream", and the other children said yes, and went up the mountain in a hurry.

Wang Youzhi, Mr. Fu, Li Tao, and Liang Dashao, a few men who were idle and had nothing to do, followed, of course, out of protection for the children.

With men following, the women are not worried, and sit down to make tea while eating melon seeds.

Lu Chixiao also sat next to the child's mother at first, peeling melon seeds for her, but later he saw all female compatriots, his mother, his sister-in-law, Xu Qian, and Chef Jiang...... After thinking about it, let's go up the mountain to play with my son.

After he left, Lin Yujuan stuck out her tongue at Xu Suizhu: "Brother Xiao probably scolded us in his heart, thinking that we were light bulbs, and the wattage was so bright that he could blind his eyes." ”

"You just knew?" Xu Suizhu teased her.

While laughing, Mrs. Li's mother and daughter also came downstairs.

"Why don't you go to play?" Mr. Xu saw Jiu Jiu obediently being led in by Mrs. Li, and his body was still the ancient costume gauze skirt he had changed into before, and he couldn't help laughing, "Also, this skirt is really not convenient to climb the mountain in it." ”

"Just now, Xiao Yu shouted downstairs, go to the mountain to catch fish. I asked Jiu Jiu if she wanted to go, and if she went, she would change into shorts, and she wouldn't change it, and she wouldn't go downstairs, so she looked in front of the mirror, and it was so beautiful!"

Looking at her daughter who was lying on the balcony railing looking at the fish pond in the backyard, Mrs. Li was amused, and praised Xu Suizhu more than once for giving the right gift, and the little girl didn't like the pink and glutinous gauze skirt.

"My family estimates that it will be two years away. Lin Yujuan couldn't help but have the urge to roll her eyes when she thought of her naughty daughter, "Now I'm a tomboy, running around with Xiaoyu and An An all day long, and riding her father's neck when I'm tired, without the appearance of a lady." I didn't inherit my personality at all, I was a lady when I was a child......"

Xu Suizhu took the lead and laughed, "Well, you are quite ladylike when you are older, I remember ...... at the gate of the Forbidden City that year."

"Sister-in-law, please spare me!"

She didn't even want to mention that black history again.

Although Xu joined late, after all, he is from Kyoto and is in a circle, so he has heard of Sister Lin's "heroic deeds" of chasing Lu Chixiao bravely in her early years but was repeatedly frustrated.

But Mrs. Li and Wang Youzhi's wife didn't know, so they chased after Lin Yujuan and asked, "What's wrong? ”

"No, no, I won't be mixed up in the future!" Lin Yujuan insisted.

Mrs. Lee sat next to her, tickling her squeaky nest.

Laugh at each other.

Fortunately, the children came back from the net, and the little bun ran upstairs with an iron bucket full of harvest: "Mom, Mom, look at the fish and shrimp I caught." ”

"Wow, so many, all of them were caught by Xiao Yu?"

Mrs. Lu is always very fond of her grandson.

Xu Suizhu smiled and looked at it, Huo!

"Hey, there's still crayfish here?"

"Mom, there are a lot of people catching this shrimp in the waterhole over there, and I found it in the cracks in the rocks by the stream. It has big pincers, and you see it's sharp! Xiaomao is afraid of it, but I'm not afraid! Do you like to eat it? I can catch it again. Xiao Baozi patted his chest, as if as long as Xu Suizhu said "like", he would immediately rush up the mountain and "fight" again.

"Xiao Yu, you really have the style of a father!" Lin Yujuan gave a thumbs up to Xiao Baozi.

is simply a small brother, everything revolves around Mr. Xu.

Xiao Baozi didn't understand: "My mother can make puffs, but she has never made a puff." Mom, what's a guffie?"

"Hahaha...... No, my stomach hurts!"

Sister Lin, who had just escaped from Mrs. Li's "clutches", laughed so much that she couldn't stand it.

Xu Suizhu saw the spicy lobster pot and thirteen-spiced crayfish that swept the night snack world in later generations from the crayfish with teeth and claws, and asked everyone: "Do you want to try it?"

"This shrimp, I have seen it in the vegetable market, a dollar a catty, and the locals make extra money to catch and sell it, but this shrimp is said to like stinky ditches, and the dirtier it is, the easier it is to survive, so I didn't let the cook buy it. And don't look big, remove the head and shell, just a little bit of meat, it's better to eat river shrimp than to eat this. Mrs. Lu shook her head.

"In fact, crayfish likes clean water, and the reason why you see it in stinky ditches is because it grows in a cool and humid living environment. After losing the clean water source, he was forced to make a living in the stinky ditch, so as not to be dried by the sun. This is just the nature of animals to seek advantage and avoid harm. Because it is extremely vigorous, it can survive even in mud puddles with a little water. Therefore, the crayfish caught in the mountain stream are the same as ordinary shrimp, they are still relatively clean and high in protein. ”

As he spoke, Xu Suizhu pinched the back of one of the lobsters and took it to show everyone:

"Its gills are really easy to breed parasites, so before burning, you have to remove the head and intestines, and then brush it clean, and when you burn it, you have to cook it thoroughly, so it's no problem. ”

She was so busy this year that she didn't have time to visit the vegetable market, and when she got home from work, she ate whatever she had on the table.

The in-laws pay great attention to self-cultivation, and the mantra on their lips is "live to ninety-nine, hug the fat great-grandson" - the little bun is very stressful, so the dishes made by the cook are very decent. In my memory, it was the first time I saw crayfish.

Also, when crayfish was just popular, it was in the night markets and snack streets in Guangcheng and Shencheng, and then with the Sichuan-style spicy crayfish and Xuyi's thirteen-spiced crayfish came out, I was fortunate to climb the table of high-end hotels and ascend to the elegant hall of orthodox hotels.

In the future, there are more and more crayfish of various brands, and the flavors and eating methods are becoming more and more abundant, completely transforming the identity of "invader" into a national delicacy.
