Hello, 1983

Chapter 77

"Well, it would be nice if there was straw, which is soft and warm, and weaving straw curtains is the most suitable."

Datou has also read the straw curtain from the book, but unfortunately they do not grow rice here for the time being.

When it came to straw, Datou and Liu Qingshan couldn't help thinking of Er Biaozi at the same time.

This kid has been out for almost two months. I don't know how he is studying, and when he will be back?

The little brothers were squatting in the courtyard and chatting when they saw an ox cart slowly wandering back from the west.

The people in the courtyard greeted each other, "Old Lieer, what are you doing here?"

The driver is called Zhang Lao Linger. He is honest and does not like to talk, but he is proficient in all kinds of farm work and diligent.

"Bring back the turf grass that I hit in the fall. The second child is going to get married next year. The family really can't live there, so I'm going to pick up two houses."

Zhang Lao Linger said, shouting to the old cow who was pulling the cart, and also came up to everyone and rolled a cigarette: "I've been suffocated this morning, the meadow is full of withered grass and reeds, I dare not smokes."

Guarding the woods and meadows, the villagers are very aware of fire prevention on weekdays, especially in spring, autumn and winter, they all know to be extra careful.

Even children are no exception. If they dare to play with fire in the wild, they will definitely be able to open their buttocks if they are known by adults.

"Uncle Linger, what did you just say?"

Liu Qingshan seemed to be grasping something faintly, and he didn't understand it for a while, so he hurriedly asked.

"I said just now that I don't smoke or anything." Zhang Lao Liner said with a swipe of his cigarette.

"No, it's the previous sentence."

"It's the grass and reeds on the meadow."

Reed, yes, reed!

Liu Qingshan slapped his hand and said, "The reed is light and warm, so let's weave the curtain with the reed!"

To the west of Jiapigou is a huge reed field that stretches as far as the eye can see, and the reeds inside are more than two meters high.

This thing can't help but burn when it is on fire, and it can't even boil a scoop of water.

Occasionally, reeds are used to build houses, but the reeds are easy to rot compared to the thatch grass.

So it grows on Dianzi every year, and no one harvests it, so that Liu Qingshan forgot about it.

"Uncle Linger, thanks to you for reminding me, come, get on the ox cart, and I'll take a picture for you!"

Liu Qingshan was in a good mood, so he had to drag Lao Linger Zhang to take a picture of him.

"Then I go home and put on the tunic suit. That's what the eldest son did when he got married."

As soon as Zhang Lao Liner heard that it was such a grand ceremony for taking pictures, she ran home to change her clothes.

As a result, Liu Qingshan grabbed him again: "Don't, let's take pictures in our true colors, and the breath of life is strong."

Liu Qingshan, together with Datou, pushed Zhang Lao Linger into the car and took a photo.

After filming, I found that there was still a broken iron bucket on the car, and I looked into it with my probe, and it turned out to be half a bucket of toads inside.

This toad has red spots on its belly, commonly known as the red belly toad, and the scientific name is Husky.

Compared with the forest frog on the mountain, it is smaller in size and has a slightly poorer nutritional content, which is mainly reflected in the toad oil in the belly of the female frog.

Huskies also have toad oil, but less.

In Liu Qingshan's memory, decades later, not to mention frogs on their side, even huskies became very rare.

In the final analysis, it is the destruction of the habitat and the consequences of the abuse of pesticides.

Liu Qingshan put his hand into the bucket and squeezed out one, which was not too small.

Look at the paws again, with small lumps, so they are thrown into the bucket again, this is a male, and there is no seed in the stomach.

There is no toad oil without seeds, because although toad oil has the word "oil", it is not fat.

The main ingredient is protein, which is used to supply the growth and development of offspring, so the nutrition is so high.

"It's dawn, and the toads are all going into the water for the winter, so I just found a hole, and after a few hugs, I got half a bucket. You can pick up some of the mother's and take it back to Qingshan. Isn't your sister pregnant, just to make up for her body. "

Zhang Lao Liner directly took the bucket out of the car and put it in front of Liu Qingshan.

These days, everyone doesn't like to eat toads very much.

One is that most people dislike it.

Second, when eating toads, the male ones are best fried, and the female ones are stewed in sauce, but the oil is too small to taste, and oil is the most precious seasoning.

"Okay, then I'll grab it."

Liu Qingshan was not polite, ran home to get an enamel basin, and poured a small half of it.

The weather is cold this month, and the toads are also lazy and not very willing to move, so there is no need to worry about jumping out.

As for cutting the reeds, I'm not in a hurry for the time being. It's best to wait until the swamps in the meadows are frozen, and people can stand it before doing this work.

It was just the beginning of winter, the temperature was not so low, and there was no need for thatch curtains in the greenhouse, and the time was still there.

Liu Qingshan happily took the toad home, washed it twice, and then sprinkled a little salt to handle it properly, and it became boring at noon.

As for eviscerating and cleaning the internal organs, this is really not necessary.

Because by this time, the toad has not eaten for a long time, so the inside of the stomach is very clean. In the words of the local people, this is called "no-gu".

Not only toads, but also the fish caught in winter and the beginning of spring do not need to be disemboweled.

When processing huskies and steaming, there will always be a touch of earthy smell, so the best way is to stew with sauce.

Liu Qingshan poured half a spoon of soybean oil into the pot, and another half spoon of meat oil, grabbed two red peppers and threw them in, added a spoonful of soy sauce, fried the flavor of the sauce, put in the toads, added water and simmered over low heat Stew it.

When the school was over at noon, the fourth child entered the room and made a fuss: "Brother, what are you cooking?"

"Go, call your grandparents over for dinner."

Liu Qingshan pulled her upside-down braids, and the little guy ran away happily. When he came back, in addition to his grandparents, of course, there was Yang Hongying.

This doesn't need Liu Qingshan's orders, the youngest fourth and Shan Xing are very kind to Teacher Yang.

Liu Qingshan also fried a potato chip and a big pepper, and the whole family crowded around the big kang table and started eating.

"Is this a frog?"

Yang Hongying looked at the dark toad on the plate and stretched its legs and pulled its hips, she really didn't dare to use chopsticks.

"It's not a frog, it's a toad."

Liu Qingshan hadn't started eating yet, so he rummaged through the plate twice with chopsticks, and put one in the bowl of the eldest sister, as well as the mother and grandparents, including Yang Hongying, took one.

He didn't pick it casually, he chose all females, with black seeds in his stomach, and toad oil wrapped on the black seeds.

"That's not the same!"

In Yang Hongying's concept, frog and toad are the same meaning.

After Liu Qingshan clipped another one for the fourth and fifth, he said cheerfully: "Of course it is different. This is a husky toad. In the past, it was a special tribute to the palace."

Liu Jinfeng also persuaded: "Mr. Yang, you can eat it, this toad is very nourishing, and what Qingshan gave us is all from the mother."

In order to enhance the persuasion, the huskies in the bowl were also picked up, stuffed into the mouth, and chewed.

Yang Hongying still didn't dare to eat like this, so she carefully tore off a toad's leg and put it in her mouth.

Well, the taste is not bad, the sauce is rich and the meat is delicate.

However, after poking his belly with chopsticks and seeing the black toad seeds inside and the milky white toad oil wrapped around it, he still found it hard to swallow.

"Girl, don't worry, eat huskies, you have to eat this."

Grandma whispered a few words beside her, and Yang Hongying closed her eyes and put it into her mouth.

After taking a few bites, she suddenly opened her eyes, and her eyes became much brighter: "Hey, the more you chew, the more delicious it is!"

Once he got used to it, Yang Hongying let go. After a meal, he also ate a dozen or so, but most of them were males, because most of the females were picked up by Liu Qingshan and given to the eldest sister and the mother.

A layman like Yang Hongying, of course, couldn't tell the difference between male and female, and lastly stared at Liu Qingshan.

Liu Qingshan whispered: "Mr. Yang, my sister is pregnant and needs nutrition, so eat more and make up for it, you don't have any opinions."

Hearing what he said, Yang Xueqing stuck out her tongue too, feeling a little embarrassed, she forgot about it as she ate.

Then I heard Liu Qingshan continue to say slowly: "Unless you are like my sister, hehe..."

Yang Hongying immediately froze, stretched out her hand suddenly, and shouted: "Sanfeng'er, I think your ears are itchy, right?"

Liu Qingshan hurriedly leaned back to avoid it, and muttered in his heart: These one, two or three will all be able to do this trick.

...

Of course, Liu Qingshan had to live his life as usual, and he had a good time. The next day, he went into the mountain with everyone.

This month is already late autumn, and it is also the most beautiful season in the mountains of the year.

Liu Qingshan is also very fortunate in his heart: thanks to bringing the camera!

When he arrived at Grandpa Dumb's woodcut, a black figure swooped over, and before Liu Qingshan could react, his thigh was hugged.

The one who holds the thigh professionally is of course the little black bear. This little guy has a good memory and recognizes Liu Qingshan.

As soon as he looked at its chirping bear, UU reading www.uukanshu.com Liu Qingshan knew that this guy was just like a child, greedy for candy.

There were really two pieces of toffee in the pocket, so they peeled off the candy wrappers and stuffed them into the bear's mouth.

Seeing the mute grandfather's face full of smiles, he thought in his heart: It's better than kissing me, you greedy little thing.

After a short rest, everyone carried a big backpack into the forest, and came to a larch forest. The needles on the tree were golden, and the autumn wind was blowing and colorful.

This woodland, in this season, is dedicated to producing small yellow mushrooms.

Looking around, the ground is full of small golden umbrellas.

I didn't say it, just squat down there and pick it up, pick the big one, if it's too small, you won't be able to handle it at all.

This little yellow mushroom is the best, and now the insects have disappeared, so don't worry about maggots inside.

The only downside is that the tiny needles of the larch stick to the mushrooms, making it difficult to clean up.

It can only be dried after returning home, gently scratching with your hands for a while, and the needles will all fall off.

In addition to the small yellow mushroom, it is the frozen mushroom. The scientific name of the frozen mushroom is Yuan mushroom, which is grown on the roots and trunks of trees.

This kind of mushroom is relatively large and the flesh is very thick. When you meet it, there are a lot of them, which grow layer by layer on the trunk.

Even after the first snowfall, frozen mushrooms can still be picked in the forest, which is probably the origin of its name.

Everyone has a clear division of labor, most people pick small yellow mushrooms, and a small half pick frozen mushrooms.

The job of picking mushrooms looks easy, but it's actually quite tiring. I squat and stand for a while.

It was over at two o'clock, everyone returned to the woodcut, hurriedly ate a piece of cake, drank a bowl of hot soup, and hurried down the mountain.
