Chapter 1676: Picking Water Caltrops!

Wu Guo and the three:...

Not to mention whether to buy a car or not, is the countryside so informal?

He hesitated: "Then if we buy a car, we won't take this bus."

"Don't take it then." The driver was exceptionally free and easy: "I get a salary, whether there are people or not, just drive. Young people are willing to run around, then buy a car, and it's convenient to carry things."

"If you can't bear the money, this bus of ours runs twice a day, just serving you, it's all fine."

Well, coming to the village, the driver is so casual. If it's really like this, they really don't need to buy a car—

Wait, what was the fundamental reason for wanting to buy a car at the beginning? Now there is only today's food and tomorrow's food in the brain, and I can't remember it at all.

Everyone was speechless, feeling desperate about their young but useless brains.

Looking at the several large plastic bags by the driver's legs, they hurriedly changed the subject: "What did you buy? It looks like... sauce?"

The driver laughed: "Zhang Hong's fermented bean curd, dried bean curd! According to your saying, what is this called? Purchasing agent! Add two yuan for a jar of one jin, I run twice a day, town and city, and can earn dozens."

It's a pity that the tender tofu can't be brought, it's easy to break...

Doctor Wu widened his eyes again: Small mountain village, how can everything from big medicine pills to tofu take the path of purchasing agents?

"Is it very famous?" Everyone asked actively.

The driver was proud: "I don't know if it's famous or not, it's just that those who drive from the city to here every weekend basically have to buy tofu from this family."

"If you want to send local specialties to relatives and friends during festivals, bringing this is definitely right."

"It's just that you are new here and don't know them well, so you have to queue up early in the morning to book."

At the beginning, because of the condition of giving the Old Song family a few hundred yuan a month to use the pool water, I don't know how many people were blocked. Zhou Maozhu's family regretted saying: At that time, they hesitated for a night, and Zhang Hong was fast, and did it directly.

Now miss it and slap your thighs!

That money earned, although hard, is simply like a cornucopia! Although getting up early and working hard is really hard, where are the people in their village afraid of hardship?

What they are afraid of is working hard and not getting money.

However, fortunately, although they didn't earn this share, Zhang Hong didn't earn the more flexible and flexible vegetable sales income.

Everyone chatted for two sentences, but there was nothing to be jealous of.

Without this tofu, the reputation of their vegetables here wouldn't have been hit so quickly. According to the Old Song family, what is this called?

This is called core advantage not prominent and not concentrated.

The driver looked at these young people, heard that they were from Guo Yi's clinic, and had the heart to sell a good one, so he urged again:

"Also, if you see relatives and friends in the city, you can buy more green vegetables, and there will be no mistakes. Each family plants them differently, you look at which kind you like to eat, and go buy it."

It's a bit expensive, but think about it, five or six yuan a jin of green vegetables, buying 10 jin is a big bag, and it only costs a few dozen yuan, isn't it better than carrying those two boxes of milk to make people like it?

The vegetables in their Yunqiao Village are really famous in Yuncheng now.

And on this side, Guo Yi changed into shorts and slippers, took the basket and met Zhang Yanping who was waiting on the side of the road, and rushed directly to the river beach by electric car.

But it was a step slower, Song Tan had already started picking with a group of people like Qin Yun and He Kuang.

The children knew how to swim and were not afraid of getting wet, so they put on small life jackets, hugged a swimming ring, and splashed in the shallow beach by the river.

The water there was shallow, and now it was stirred up to be murky. They laughed and laughed, their laughter filled the sky, and even He Tuoluo, who had been silent for days, temporarily cast aside his unhappiness.

Adults were much more cautious, especially since there were many land ducks inside.

Song Tan opened all the small boats of her family. Inside were two antique electric awning boats left by the crew after filming, and blue plastic boats bought for the day.

Comparing the two, the appearance is tragic.

So the antique small boats were occupied by ladies without hesitation, and the old men didn't like taking photos, so they sat on the ugly blue boat!

The bright orange life jackets were not enough.

Therefore, the men who knew how to swim had to give way again.

The ladies laughed and took photos, not picking a single water caltrop, but already full of emotional value.

With such a good place, they wouldn't go to any holiday scenic spot!

"That's it!"

Editor Yun Feng's wife also sighed: "Editor Yun Feng's holidays are all regular holidays, which is difficult."

Don't go out, it's really boring to guard the children at home.

Go out, it's simply people, people, people, people...

And...

Editor Yun Feng's wife also muttered: "Aren't we living in the Imperial Capital? Every holiday, relatives and friends come to the Imperial Capital to let us receive them."

Treating guests to dinner is a small matter, the key is to accompany them to the scenic spot.

Oh my mother, the first two years of marriage, just that holiday on the 11th, she accompanied the elders of her hometown to climb the Great Wall 12 times! People were almost exhausted.

So now on holidays, whether it's the suburbs or scenic spots, she can't stay in the Imperial Capital.

She is already like this, Editor Yun Feng is even more difficult.

Not only to climb the Great Wall, but also to ask people to register in the hospital, he has to do it. When encountering elders seeing a doctor, he begged his grandfather to tell his grandmother to find a scalper to hang a high-priced number, and in the end, people thought it was expensive and didn't come.

Didn't come, the money couldn't be mentioned, and he was depressed a few times a year.

It's only been a little better in the past few years as it gradually became standardized.

However, these are all trivial matters in life, and now it is more happy most of the time.

Especially now that they are rippling in the brilliant golden waves under the sunset, that is super doubled happiness.

Everyone swept away the complaints about the strange things before, and discussed the large pieces of water caltrops in front of them with great interest, and the big white geese shaking their butts in the water waves facing the sunset in the distance...

Too comfortable!

"Guo Yi is here!"

Although it's not very embarrassing, I still have to say that Guo Yi's popularity among the men is even higher than that of the ladies!

Everyone greeted her reservedly and actively, seeing Zhang Yanping protecting her and carefully getting on the boat, and then comparing the contrast between the two, it is hard not to be silent for a while.

But fortunately, Guo Yi is an easy-going person. At this moment, her fair face looks no different from a college student, attracting He Kuang's wife to hurriedly lean over:

"Guo Yi, you are so young, did you do a project, or do you have your own internal adjustment? Can you adjust it for me too?"

"No problem!" Guo Yi was very generous: "If you have time tomorrow, take a pulse, and I will specifically open a beauty prescription for you."

But having said that, she still emphasized: "I have some insights into gynecological conditioning, and then there is male conditioning. Other aspects are really ordinary, this beauty prescription may have to be eaten for a while to be effective..."

Everyone looked at her face, always feeling that humble words were not convincing, and hurriedly pulled her to the C position.

Qin's wife was even more generous and put the life jacket on her body over her head:

"You pick, I'll take photos for you."

Lu Chuan was controlling the small boat on the side, but because the water caltrops were in front, everyone was still posing and finding angles, and didn't start it at all.

Only Song Tan said helplessly: "If you keep taking photos like this, everyone won't be able to share a few water caltrops tonight."

"It's right at hand, just scoop up the whole water caltrop, even the roots and stems are soaking in the water."

Picking one by one and throwing them into the basket, and throwing the bunch in hand back into the water, it's such a smooth thing!

"When I contracted the river beach, there was nothing in this river. This piece of water caltrops was introduced from other places, there are red water caltrops, old varieties of four-corner small water caltrops, and large water caltrops on the market... Picking any kind is fine, they are all the same to eat."

"However, I personally think that the old variety of four-corner small water caltrops is the clearest and sweetest when tender, and red water caltrops are also okay when tender. Large water caltrops are average, it's better to boil soup after they are old."

Qin Mom sighed: "It's been many years since I've seen such fresh water caltrops. I bought a bag in the market last year, and when I got home, the shells were green and black, and they were too old to break, so I almost had to cut them with a knife."

The key is that after cutting and peeling, it doesn't taste good. Not only is it too old and has no taste, but after boiling, although it has a powdery feeling, it still has no taste.

In short, bad review!

Song Tan laughed: "Then taste our tender water caltrops later. When I was a child, my grandmother went to the pond and scooped two baskets, which were particularly clear and sweet. I could sit there and peel for an afternoon."

This river water is clear but not too fat, and the water caltrops didn't grow too fat, each with its own size.

Scoop one, pick off a grain, put it back and scoop two more, like treasure hunting.

Not only is there expectation, but also the happiness of decompression.

Everyone sat on the small boat and leaned forward, feeling even more comfortable for a while.

In contrast, the old men's side was much rougher.

Just now no one moved, now it's moving too fast.

They scooped up a handful, swished and pulled off the water caltrops, threw them back, scooped again, pulled again... it wasn't playing at all, purely coming to be water caltrop picking workers.

Lu Chuan had to remind them again and again to look after their own cubs, but got the parents' indifference:

"Just that shallow beach, as long as you don't lie down, what can happen?"

It's just that the water is too murky, can't see, and don't know what they will look like when they go home.

So everyone discussed: "Before leaving, scoop them onto the boat and go to the deep water to rinse them, otherwise how can they wash when they go home?"

Yes, yes!

Parents agreed with this very much.

Song Tan was speechless when she saw this.

She remembered that when Editor Yun Feng's mother-in-law brought Yun Danqing, the girl ran and jumped, and she had to worry about catching a cold in the wind, so she carried a small towel with her and wiped her back and chest from time to time.

Now it's good, after staying for a few days, it doesn't matter if the child is soaking in the mud soup.

Can only say, one side of water and soil, one side of habit.

Seeing that this group of men picked water caltrops too fast, and didn't know when they would finish eating so many, and the tender ones couldn't be stored, Song Tan reminded:

"See that thin stem under the water caltrop leaf? Break that off, and you can stir-fry it, it's about the same as eating sweet potato stems."

Qiao Qiao heard this and turned to look at Song Tan.

Song Tan also turned her head guiltily.

Just heard the honest younger brother emphasize: "It's not as delicious as sweet potato stems!"

Nonsense!

Everyone didn't believe it. The sweet potato stems fried with pickled peppers are so delicious! Just that one dish, everyone can eat two or three bowls of rice.

If there weren't too many choices, a table of people would have to fight for this.

This water caltrop stem also looks fat and strong, and grows about the same—although it's a bit short, it's all stems.

Why is it not as delicious?

Taking a step back, even if it's not as delicious as sweet potato stems, it's still particularly delicious if it's a little worse!

Everyone instantly got excited: "What kind of tenderness do you need to pick this?"

Qiao Qiao:...

He sighed, not understanding why adults didn't take his words seriously.

Picking water caltrop stems is troublesome, and it's also troublesome to peel off the old skin when cleaning. When stir-fried, the taste is really worse than sweet potato stems.

The key is, there are so many delicious things at home, why do you have to eat this?

But he still dutifully said: "If you use more force when pinching, it means it's a bit old, so you don't need it."

He Kuang looked at the oil-green leaves in his palm and hesitated: "Then these leaves are not needed after picking? Just throw them into the river? Will it pollute?"

It's not to say polluting the water source, but he raises fish at home, if there are microorganisms in the fish tank that rot, the fish will get sick.

Song Tan's fish are so delicious, the daily maintenance must be dedicated, so asking one more question is never wrong.

"No!" Qiao Qiao said seriously:

"My mother said, original soup transforms original food. And if you throw the leaves into the river, fish will eat them, geese will eat them, and ducks will eat them. If they don't eat them, they rot, turn into mud at the bottom, and can raise more fish and shrimp..."

What a 【Original soup transforms original food】!

The cultural people who write books and publish books were stunned.

But then everyone let go: If you say so, they won't feel bad when picking!

This side is the laughter of picking water caltrops:

"Look at this big water caltrop! So big!"

"Big doesn't necessarily mean delicious, when I buy fruit, I pick the extra big ones, and the middle is a bit bran."

"This is a four-corner small water caltrop, this water caltrop is so green and tender!"

The other side is—

"This stem is so fat, look, I picked a handful. Can we stir-fry a big basin with what we picked tonight?"

"If we can, don't do any chicken, duck, fish, or meat, just stir-fry two dishes simply."

Eating so well every day, I feel a little embarrassed.

Lu Chuan doesn't care, entertaining friends, naturally, he has to do his best, after all, he went to find friends, and they didn't pay less.

"It's just that if you want to reduce the burden on Master Chai and the others, I don't care."

"Reduce it, reduce it."

Not to mention anything else, Lu Chuan and Song Tan are not married yet, and they kill chickens, ducks, and sheep every day, which is really embarrassing.

When I came, I felt that my heart had arrived, and the gifts were ready. After staying for two days, I found that no matter what, it was not enough for their sincerity.

Not to mention anything else, is that little thing enough for a meal?

Look at Lu Chuan sourly again: Why do all the good things in the world happen to this person?

Sour, too sour, this sweet potato stem stir-fried with pickled peppers, I guess it's also sour.

?? It's here, it's here! 4000 words! Sigh, I wrote my own saliva out... ===== CHAPTER 1678 =====
