Eighty Rough Village Flower: Three sentences to win the most handsome educated youth

Chapter 23 Picking Blueberries

"It's that simple?" Lin Chen asked.

Chu Jiaojiao nodded, seeing the faint worry on Lin Chen's face, she smiled: "Otherwise? How complicated do you think it is? It's very simple."

This method was learned from the local villagers when she took a short break in the south.

It only needs to soak in warm water for up to seven days, and the persimmon will be ready.

But Chu Jiaojiao didn't know what this persimmon-like fruit was called. The locals also called it persimmon.

Although this thing is simple, she can do it at home, but at that time, there were 007 and 996 all over the street, and there was no event to do this.

What's more, there are also people who don't want to do it themselves.

Therefore, there are quite a lot of people selling persimmons marinated in water.

Lin Chen didn't move, but looked at Chu Jiaojiao thoughtfully.

"What?" Chu Jiaojiao just wanted to say that it was unnecessary for him to worry, but suddenly remembered that Lin Chen's identity, he is from the capital city, and his identity is different. He may have seen many good things before. .

Lin Chen pursed his lips: "I'll go with you."

"Ah?" Chu Jiaojiao paused for a moment, then suddenly realized, "You want to pick blueberries with me?"

Lin Chen nodded.

Chu Jiaojiao didn't want to agree, but seeing Lin Chen eager to try, she finally nodded.

She didn't want Lin Chen to go because Lin Chen had already done a lot of things today, and she was worried that overwork would make his injured legs worse.

But looking at the way Lin Chen stood up, it didn't seem to be a big deal.

Forget it, just go if you want.

The young master in Beijing may have never played in such a wild place before, and he was curious about everything he saw.

Seeing Lin Chen going with Chu Jiaojiao, Chu Ming wanted to hide away, and the young couple went out, so why would he join in the fun.

Although Lin Chen's legs and feet are inconvenient, blueberries grow in the ground, and there is no need to climb trees or anything. It's better to let the two of them go to enhance their relationship.

"Then you two can go by yourself, I will stay and prepare dinner." Chu Ming said.

Chu Jiaojiao immediately said: "Let me come for dinner."

"No, I made some money today. Our family eats noodles made from white flour and a little lard. It must be delicious." Chu Ming knew what Chu Jiaojiao was worried about, so he said immediately.

After Chu Jiaojiao heard this, she no longer worried, and nodded, "Then let's go back quickly."

"Well, go and come back quickly." Chu Ming said.

These days, there are still a few people who extract oil, and everyone consumes lard by themselves.

Every household raises pigs, which are slaughtered during the Chinese New Year, and the fattened parts are refined into transparent lard, which will turn into a white solid when it cools down.

Every family relies on killing pigs at the end of the year to save some lard, and every family is reluctant to eat more.

When refining lard, there is still a little lard residue, and when cooking noodles, it is very fragrant.

Chu Jiaojiao is also very good at rolling noodles, but she is not particularly good at making noodles. She still has the memory and memory of the original owner. Chu Ming is still very good at making noodles.

"Let's go and come back quickly." Chu Jiaojiao said hastily, thinking about the noodles.

Noodles and rice are both high-carb, so she can't eat too much, but some cornmeal would be better.

Lin Chen and Chu Jiaojiao walked one after the other, the dusk gradually merged, and people in the village began to stroll.

This is the busy time for farming, but the tigers are in full bloom in autumn, and the corn is not fully ripe, so only in the evening can we chat for a while.

Everyone watched Lin Chen and Chu Jiaojiao go in the direction of the field, and couldn't help feeling curious.

"Chu girl, what are you doing here?"

Chu Jiaojiao didn't mean to hide it from everyone, anyway, children like to eat blueberries.

And in the eyes of everyone, she has long been a foodie.

"Go and pick some wild fruits." Chu Jiaojiao laughed.

Originally, some people saw Chu Jiaojiao's ability to toss around recently, and wanted to follow her to see how she got rich, but they only heard this, and they were immediately disappointed.

What is delicious about wild fruits?

Sure enough, it still can't change the problem of being lazy.

Seeing that everyone didn't follow, Chu Jiaojiao didn't care, and quickly came to the field with Lin Chen.

The sky was a little dark, and the two of them didn't bring kerosene lamps, so they could only move their hands and feet quickly while there was still a little light.

Fortunately, their speed was fast, and although the blueberries were ripe, there were not too many children to pick them, and the basket was full in a short while.

When the two went back, there were no people on the street, the windows of every house were dimly lit, and the countryside was full of insects and frogs, and they felt peaceful for a while.

After returning home, Chu Jiaojiao processed the picked blueberries and persimmons, picked some ripe ones and put them in a sea bowl.

"Achen, you can bring these to Mom later." Chu Jiaojiao said.

Lin Chen silently helped from the side. Hearing this, he hummed.

Then I heard Chu Jiaojiao say: "Mom's health is not good, I went to the mountains to find some medicine recently, and make some medicinal food for Mom."

Lin Chen raised his eyes suddenly, and fixed his eyes on Chu Jiaojiao.

Chu Jiaojiao didn't pay attention to his little movement, she moved quickly to deal with the things, and at the same time she started to deal with the pigs in the water.

Still use rice vinegar to soak the pig offal in water to remove the fishy smell, and then pick out some keel bones and fan bones that no one wants to make the broth.

Ribs are as expensive as meat at this time, but dragon bones and fan bones are very cheap. Chu Jiaojiao wanted to make broth, so when Chu Tian went to buy pigs, she told him to buy some bones.

Only in this way can the broth be delicious, and the enema can be truly beautiful.

But Chu Jiaojiao plans to find another Tietong tomorrow, get a stove, and try to sell some pancakes at the school gate.

Nowadays, white noodles are still precious. Although they are not unaffordable, few people will buy them.

This is also the reason why Chu Jiaojiao never made pancakes.

Chu Ming made the dinner, and it really was delicious hand-rolled noodles, very delicious.

Without Chu Jiaojiao's warning, Chu Tian had already pretended for Lin's mother in advance, Lin Chen did not accompany them to dinner, but sent the things to Lin's mother.

Although the cowshed was well cleaned, it was not a serious home after all, and it seemed cooler at night.

Lin Chen held his chopsticks, but thought in his heart that he couldn't just rely on Chu Jiaojiao, at least if he wanted to change his mother's place to live, he had to have money.

Lin's mother felt that the dinner was too rich, and seeing that Lin Chen and Chu Jiaojiao had a good time, she felt a little relieved.

"Achen, what do you think of Jiaojiao?" Mother Lin asked tentatively.

After all, Lin Chen's appearance was upright, and his background was different. If it wasn't for his leg injury, and it happened at that special time, he would never have been with someone like Chu Jiaojiao.
