Chapter 67 June Yellow

Lu Miao was stunned. When she thought that Fu Jingyou had made it up for her, it would be nothing if she gave one in return, so she didn't take it seriously.

There were wilted dogwoods and mugwort planted at the back door. Lu Miao asked:
"It's Dragon Boat Festival today?"

Fu Jingyou opened the iron chain and pushed the door open. His voice was low and heavy: "It was yesterday."

Lu Miao said "Oh" and followed slowly into the yard, "I forgot about the Dragon Boat Festival this year. Did you make anything delicious? Like rice dumplings?"

Although it was a question, she did not wait for Fu Jingyou to answer, and she had already trotted to the corner of the courtyard.

After some time, the Fu family's backyard is a little tidier than before, and the various vegetable seedlings and rice seedlings that were planted previously have also undergone considerable changes.

Although it may not be much taller, its rhizomes are straight and extremely vigorous.

Lu Miao squatted in the corner and looked at the few vegetable seedlings. Fu Jingyou had already opened the kitchen door and put the iron lock on the back door of the yard on the table. Finally, he turned back and opened the two kitchen doors wide. He was busy. A lounge chair was brought from the corner of the kitchen and placed next to the back door.

The sun was shining brightly outside the house. Fu Jingyou squinted at Lu Miao, patted the recliner and shouted, "Come in and take a rest."

"Oh!"

Lu Miao put the gourd ladle that scooped water into the old bucket, trotted happily into the kitchen, and immediately saw the big guy leaning against the door.

The deck chair is heavy, with its main skeleton made of solid wood, but the part where people lie down is made of bamboo pieces that are padded and fixed with nails.

The bamboo slices are divided into two colors, most of which are tan, and the other small parts are staggered between tan. The emerald green color belonging to the bamboo has not completely faded.

It was obvious that this recliner was old and was a bit dilapidated. It was repaired when it was moved out. The bamboo pieces whose green color had not faded away were the best evidence.

There was no such thing in the kitchen before. Lu Miao touched the handle of the recliner and asked:

"Where did this come from?"

"I have always had it at home. It was weighed down by debris and I couldn't move it out. I just thought about moving it out when the weather got hot."

Fu Jingyou not only repaired the dilapidated parts of the recliner, but also moved it out and rinsed and wiped it carefully before. Not to mention that there is no trace of dust or stains on the surface of the recliner, not even on the back.

He considerately invited Lu Miao to rest, but Lu Miao didn't hesitate. He climbed up with the reclining chair with both hands. The part where his knees pressed against the bamboo felt a little tingly. After lying down, his back felt tingling again. But after a while, She realized the beauty of this recliner.

The cool breeze blows directly through the gaps in the bamboo slices on the back. It is really cool!

As for the people?

The pain is directly weakened, just like walking barefoot on round pebbles. After the uncomfortable stage, you can still feel a sense of comfort.

Feeling comfortable, Lu Miao did not forget about serious matters. Thinking of the big buffalo tied in the shade of the bamboo forest, she jumped up from the recliner and asked:

"Is it okay to tie the cow there? If the people in the team see the cow, will they know I'm here with you?"

"will not."

Fu Jingyou answered firmly, and Lu Miao curiously asked: "Why?"

"No reason, it's all like this in the team. In the past, my uncles and aunts would herd cows and go home for lunch. The cows would be tied up in a shady place close to someone else's house."

Theft is not a small crime. Besides, who would dare to steal something as valuable as a cow?

Just find a shady place where you can see it and tie it up. Just make sure that the cow won't get sunburned or get off the rope and step on the team's crops.

Fu Jingyou said, carrying a bucket to the lounge chair for Lu Miao to see, "I caught it in the basket we took back this morning. Huang Yatou is also in it. Take a look." "You just came back from work outside yesterday, and you still have time to get down." Fish basket?"

Confused, Lu Miao still took a cooperative look into the bucket.

At this glance, she suddenly became pleasantly surprised, "Ah, it's a yellow bone fish!"

Yes, in the bucket, in addition to loaches, eels, and a few small crucian carp no longer than a finger, there were also several yellow-bone fish that flicked their tails and jumped around.

Some people may not be familiar with yellow bone fish, but if we talk about yellow bone fish, there should be many people who know it.

There was a dish called Yellow Bone Fish and Tofu Soup. Lu Miao had eaten it once and always remembered it.

That was before time travel, when she was still young and had just entered high school.

Because I participated in a group training camp and endured hardship outside for a week, I had some gastrointestinal problems. When I returned home, I either vomited everything I ate or couldn't eat anything.

It was a trick suggested by my grandma's aunt, Liu Ma, who has been working in the family for a long time. She made a soup with yellow bone fish and tofu, and also put bean sprouts, chili peppers and Sichuan peppercorns in it.

The soup tasted salty and slightly spicy, the fish was tender and smooth, and the bean sprouts were particularly crisp and refreshing. Lu Miao took a spoonful at that time and had no adverse reactions after eating. She ate two large portions of the soup with polished rice. Bowl of rice.

Later, after eating to full stomach, I lay in my grandma’s arms, humming and making a lot of jokes...

Lu Miao looked surprised. Fu Jingyou knew that whether it was fish or crab in this bucket, there was nothing he couldn't eat. "What do you want to do? Tell me, I'll do it."

Lu Miao hesitated, "Well... there are so many, I can't eat them all in one sitting."

Fu Jingyou shook the bucket and said indifferently, "Eat whichever you want, and keep the others for now."

Lu Miao was surprised: "Can you survive in such a hot weather? Won't you die?"

Fu Jingyou shook his head, "I'll move the vat in the front yard later and put it in the shade under the eaves. It won't hurt if the water is deeper."

Lu Miao was doubtful and solved the follow-up problems of other eels and small crucian carp. She pursed her lips and thought for a while before saying:

"I want to eat yellow-bone fish, but this one seems to require tofu, which we don't have. And I've only eaten this. I don't know the specific method, so I can only try it."

"Then give it a try." Fu Jingyou made a decisive decision and turned around to ask Lu Miao hesitantly, "I'll prepare the tofu next time. I'll replace it with something else this time, okay?"

OK, of course!

Lu Miao nodded positively.

Whatever she said was what she said. Fu Jingyou had enough to rely on her, but she couldn't force anyone to make things difficult for her again and again.

Fu Jingyou nodded. If he was not sure about the method, he would start with the ingredients and seasonings and work backwards. He asked Lu Miao:
"What's in the one you're eating?"

Lu Miao's eyes flickered, and she said "um" and told him in detail:
"Yellow-bone fish, tofu, bean sprouts, and Sichuan peppercorns and chili peppers. There shouldn't be much chili peppers, but it's only slightly spicy when I eat them."

"it is good."

Fu Jingyou knew it well. He brought the wooden basin for washing vegetables and fished out the yellow-bone fish in a few strokes. When the bucket was tilted, Lu Miao made a new discovery, "Ah, this crab is not small yet! When you said crab, I I thought they were those little crabs in the lake!”

"There are quite a few like this in the lake, but you can't usually see them when the sky is bright. If you get up early, you can see the water outlet and the edges of the water plants crawling densely everywhere."
