Jiang Zhimiao didn't know where he got the confidence from. He gave Aunt Liu a bargain because she bought hundreds of bottles.

It would be too confident to give her a discount after just buying a few bottles.

Jiang Zhimiao grinned and refused: "Don't say anything. You can't be cheap. This precedent cannot be set. If you have nothing to do, I will go back first."

She said with a smile, but her tone was unyielding.

Zhang Qilu's face looked a little ugly at this moment. He didn't expect Jiang Zhimiao's appetite to be so big. Even ten bottles couldn't make her let go. Could it be that because he made so much money, he no longer looked down on his 150 pennies?

He frowned and looked at her with a deep expression.

After a while, a smile appeared on the face that had lost its smile. Zhang Qilu laughed and said, "Hey, isn't it just a joke? How can I really get an advantage from you? It's not easy for everyone to make money. I was just joking."

Jiang Zhimiao glanced at his fake-smiling face casually, turned her head and left without saying a word.

Zhang Qilu's face darkened when he saw her leaving, and immediately turned dark, gloomy and scary.

Seeing his unkind expression, those who were still a little curious immediately stopped joking, moved their buttocks, and gave him a fearful look.

Jiang Zhimiao was not affected by Zhang Qilu and wandered around the village with a basket in a good mood.

Now that the day is getting warmer, many wild vegetables have sprouted. Today, she went to dig a lot of bamboo shoots in the woods behind the sheepfold. Looking at the fat and white bamboo shoots in the basket, Jiang Zhimiao hummed a tune as she walked. , in a very happy mood.

Before winter started, she had chopped all the firewood for the whole winter. Speaking of which, she hadn't been to the woods for a long time. If the firewood at home hadn't run out of wood now, she wouldn't have dug so many bamboo shoots. .

When Zhou Ming died at that time, she buried him hastily. Unexpectedly, when she went to look at it after many days, she found that a bamboo several feet high had grown out of the place where it was buried. It was better than the bamboo Jiang Zhimiao had seen before.

Thinking of this, Jiang Zhimiao couldn't help but marvel at the vitality of the bamboo shoot, and felt that the points were spent correctly and it was worth it.

Of course, no matter how good the bamboo was, she couldn't dig it out and eat it. She hadn't reached the point where she was at the end of her rope, and she couldn't do anything so disgusting, so she just glanced at it and left.

I met Chuntao on the road. Seeing her rosy face, I knew that she was living a good life recently.

Chuntao's life has been really good recently. A few days ago, her family's tofu business was almost out of business, and she was about to run out of money. Unexpectedly, another rejuvenation potion appeared.

These days, her family is growing vegetables and selling tofu, earning two incomes. Life is getting better, and the yard is well repaired.

When she saw Jiang Zhimiao's figure, Chuntao was almost overjoyed and hurriedly went to meet her, "Sister, did you just come back from digging bamboo shoots in the woods?"

Jiang Zhimiao smiled and nodded, "There are a lot of bamboo shoots in the woods at the back. I saw that none of you were digging them, so I went to dig them." Chuntao stretched his head towards the basket, and all the bamboo shoots were white. The fat bamboo shoots were piled one by one in the basket. Chuntao frowned and said with some confusion: "Are you digging the bamboo shoots to plant them? Are you digging so many bamboo shoots to plant a bamboo forest in the yard?"

"My dad said that bamboo is easy to grow, but I think planting bamboo is not as good as planting flowers. If you feel that the yard is empty, I will give you a few pots of my cockscombs, which are also easy to raise."

After Chuntao thought carefully, her eyes lit up and she suddenly suggested.

Jiang Zhimiao smiled and said helplessly: "You are overthinking. I dug these bamboo shoots back to eat."

"Besides, I've already planted vegetables in my yard, so I'd better skip the cockscombs. You'd better keep them and plant them yourself."

Chuntao was stunned, pursed her lips, and looked at Jiang Zhimiao with a look that looked like a fool. She bit her lower lip, and after struggling for a while, she said in shock: "Sister Miao, if your family has no money, come with me." Say, this bamboo shoot, this bamboo shoot is poisonous."

Jiang Zhimiao told her that she was confused. How could bamboo shoots be poisonous?Just when I was about to ask again, I heard her continue: "A few years ago, when my family had no money, Xinghua and I went to the woods to dig a lot and came back. After eating, we had vomiting and diarrhea. I still remember the discomfort. Clearly.”

Thinking of the vomiting and diarrhea, Chuntao swallowed in fear, feeling sour in her stomach, and even her mouth was bitter.

"The key is that it is not only poisonous, but also very bitter. I have never eaten anything so bitter since I was a child. It is so bitter that my tongue is numb. Sister Miao, this thing cannot be eaten." Chuntao looked solemn. Looking at Jiang Zhimiao, he said word by word.

"Have you encountered any difficulties recently? If you have difficulties at home, just tell me, don't eat this." After saying that, Chuntao poured out all the copper coins in the cloth bag on his waist and handed them to Jiang Zhi Miao said, "You can use the money first. If it's not enough, I'll go back and get it."

Upon hearing this, Jiang Zhimiao nodded her forehead, pushed the money back, and said with a smile: "Silly girl, do I look so poor? You can keep the money yourself, I haven't encountered anything. Difficult matter."

After hearing this, Jiang Zhimiao finally understood why Chuntao showed such an enemy-like expression towards the bamboo shoots. After working on it for a long time, it turned out to be because he didn't handle it well!

The bitter and astringent taste of spring bamboo shoots is relatively complex. If they are not processed properly, you will feel an obvious bitter taste when eating them. As for the vomiting and diarrhea she mentioned, maybe she was greedy and ate a lot of unprocessed bamboo shoots. The bitter taste was obvious for a while. I felt nauseated, and then I started to vomit and have diarrhea.

"The bamboo shoots are good bamboo shoots, but you don't know how to eat them. Let me ask you, how did you and Xinghua make the bamboo shoots in the first place?" Jiang Zhimiao asked with a smile on his face.

Chuntao thought for a moment, then suddenly said: "Just wash it, cut it into slices, and then stir-fry it. This is what everyone in the village does."

The taste of that bamboo shoot meal is really unforgettable. I don’t even need to think hard. I just think of the scene at that time.

Jiang Zhimiao smiled, secretly thinking that it was true, and immediately said: "These bamboo shoots are bitter, but they are not always bitter. They are no longer bitter after treatment. At that time, you and Xinghua didn't do anything and just put them in the pot and fried them. , it naturally tastes bitter.”

"There are many ways to make bamboo shoots less bitter. The simplest is to blanch them in water. After blanching, nine out of ten of the original bitter taste of the bamboo shoots can be removed. Of course, don't forget to put some salt in the water, so that the original taste of the bamboo shoots can be preserved. The brittleness.”

"However, the blanching time should not exceed a quarter of an hour. Otherwise, the original freshness and crispness of the bamboo shoots will be lost, and they will not taste good."
