Chapter 140 Going up the mountain to pick mushrooms
"It's going to take so long. By the time your leg is healed, the autumn harvest will have already begun. It won't delay your work!"
Cai Yanhong spoke seriously, but Lin Yinyin frowned when she heard it. She didn't want to work during the autumn harvest!
Her legs can still be healed!
"Pick your vegetables. I need to get up."
Lin Yinyin closed the window, got up and found a long-sleeved shirt to wear. It was quite cold in Heilongjiang Province in August when it rained.
I just opened the window for a while and the temperature in the room has dropped.
"Xiaowu, are you up? Are you cold? I'll help you remove the baffle while I cook so your kang can be warmer."
"That's fine. It's cold today, so let's have noodle soup this morning. I'll stir-fry some tomatoes, and we'll each have a poached egg."
"Okay, I'll do whatever you want."
Lin Jianhe chopped the firewood in the kitchen that was not exposed to the rain. Fortunately, he was smart enough to bring back some firewood last night, otherwise there would be no firewood to burn today.
"By the way, brother, they are going to the mountains to pick mushrooms today. Do you want to go with them?"
"I won't go. I'll stay home with you. Jiang Jizhi just told me that the other people at the educated youth site should go with you.
I think there will be a lot of people going up the mountain today, so don't worry, nothing will happen."
"Well, if you don't want to go, then don't go."
Lin Yinyin knew that she couldn't persuade her brother at all, her brother was stubborn!
After breakfast, everyone in the backyard, except the Lin brothers and sisters, went up the mountain.
No one is carrying a small backpack yet. I don’t know how many mushrooms they are going to pick. I hope they won’t even be able to fill the bottom!
Before leaving, Cai Yanhong said loudly to Lin Yinyin:
"Yinyin, wait until I come back from picking mushrooms, and we'll stir-fry them for lunch!
If I could kill a chicken and stew it with mushrooms, that would be even better. Then I'd catch a pheasant."
"..."
Lin Yinyin didn't want to reply to her. It was already good enough to pick up mushrooms and bring them back. How could she catch pheasants?
It is possible that Shen Yechu can catch her, after all, she is the heroine!
In the morning, Lin Yinyin had nothing to do, so she just climbed onto the warm kang and knitted a scarf...
She had just learned this, and she learned it from Aunt Luo next door. Before that, Lin Jianhe got her a few balls of wool from somewhere, and the color was just right for Lin Jianhe!
Now she only knows how to use flat stitches, and she always misses stitches, which makes her progress very slow.
I have unwoven and knitted the scarf, but the length of the scarf is still only ten centimeters.
I wonder if at this rate she can get her brother to wear it around his neck before the weather gets cold!
If all else fails, just wear a full neck warmer? The scarf is too long.
By the time Cai Yanhong and the others came back, it was already past two in the afternoon.
Looking at the excited expressions of Cai Yanhong and the others, it seems that they have collected a lot!
"Stop, stop, stop. Give me all your things, go back to the house and change your clothes before coming back."
Lin Yinyin felt a little disgusted with Cai Yanhong who was covered in mud. How could she be covered in mud just by going up the mountain to pick mushrooms!
"Here, have this for lunch. We're starving."
"Didn't you say you had a pheasant to bring back? How can I stew mushrooms without a chicken?"
Lin Yinyin saw that Cai Yanhong's backpack was only half full of mushrooms. As for the chicken she mentioned when she went out, there was not even a feather to be seen.
"Oh, fried mushrooms are delicious too. I'm going to go back and change my clothes first. They're all soaked."
Cai Yanhong was a little embarrassed. She fell like this just because she was chasing a pheasant. Never mind, let's not talk about it anymore.
After Cai Yanhong changed her clothes and returned to Lin Yinyin, she saw Lin Jianhe washing mushrooms one by one.
They are all wild and of various varieties. When stir-fried into a dish, it becomes a mushroom chowder.
"Comrade Yanhong, are you sure these mushrooms are not poisonous?"
Lin Yinyin said this with a timid heart, she had heard the saying "Red umbrella, white pole, you have to lie down on the board after eating" before.
Many people get poisoned by eating mushrooms every year, so she needs to find out.
"Don't worry, I've asked the local villagers, it's fine, just eat it without worry!
I pick one and ask one, and people are getting fed up with my questions."
Cai Yanhong waved her hand with an expression that said, "You have to believe me."
The more Lin Yinyin saw Cai Yanhong's confident attitude, the more she became unconvinced. There were only a few mushrooms in this pot that she could name!
She didn't dare eat something she didn't recognize, but it was not good to discourage people directly, after all, they had worked hard to go up the mountain to pick it.
If you want to eat it, then eat it. Didn’t we ask the villagers? There’s a high probability that there won’t be any problem!
To be safe, she threw the brightly colored ones back into the backpack.
For today's lunch, in addition to a plate of fried mushrooms, Lin Yinyin also specially fried a plate of three fresh vegetables, a cold cucumber salad, and a stewed egg.
The mushrooms were fried last. She added garlic and counted on the timer to fry for fifteen minutes. Logically, there should be no problem with her operation process.
When tasting the salt, Lin Yinyin always called Cai Yanhong over to taste it, because she didn't dare to eat it...
When the last dish, 'fried mushrooms', was served, everyone was already sitting at the table waiting, their bowls and chopsticks were ready, and the rice was served.
They were just waiting for Lin Yinyin to come over and start eating. After Lin Yinyin hopped over on one foot and sat down, several people picked up their chopsticks and reached for the plate of fried mushrooms.
Put the mushroom in your mouth and the satisfied expression on your face, well, it tastes delicious~
Just as Lin Jianhe reached for the plate of mushrooms with his chopsticks, Lin Yinyin held his hand.
"Brother, you'd better not eat it."
Lin Yinyin said and shook her head at him.
"Yinyin, you still don't believe me. It's okay if we all eat it!"
"This is a mushroom, not arsenic, so how can you have a reaction right after eating it?
It's not that I don't trust you, but if one of you gets poisoned, at least leave someone to take you to the hospital!"
"You haven't eaten yet, so why don't you just take us there?"
Cai Yanhong didn't care and stuffed another chopstick of mushrooms into the innermost part. It was really fragrant.
"You must have eaten too many mushrooms. Sister Yin's leg is broken. How can I send you there? Should I hop on one leg?"
Jiang Jizhi was afraid that he would eat less than Cai Yanhong, so he also picked up a large piece of mushroom with chopsticks and stuffed it into his mouth.
Shen Yechu was quite rational, he just took a few bites and stopped eating, probably because he was afraid of being poisoned after eating it.
"Okay, okay, anyway, if you don't eat it, you won't have this delicious feast. If you don't eat it, it will all go into my mouth.
Today an aunt told me that there are wild vegetables in the mountains in April and May, such as cucumber fragrance and prickly ash!
This name sounds interesting, I want to pick some next year to try it!"
