"Ranran, what is this?"

Chen Huiniang asked, pointing to the pile of dark things Qiao Ran brought back.

Qiao Ran said with a smile: "This pile is dried mushrooms, which are soaked in water and used to make chicken soup. They are very fragrant. These black ones are dried fungus, which are also soaked in water and can be used to stir-fry meat. They are delicious and nutritious." "

"Agaric, is it the black ear-like thing that grows on the wood? I heard that this thing is poisonous if eaten. Why did you bring it back?"

Qiao Erhe asked in surprise.

Everyone else also looked at Qiao Ran.

Qiao Ran explained to everyone: "Well, these are black fungus, and there is also white fungus, also called white fungus. The white fungus used in the white fungus and lotus seed soup that wealthy families often eat. You can't eat raw black fungus because it contains a A toxin called porphyrin will cause itching, edema and pain on the skin after people expose it to the sun after eating it, but you can eat the dried fungus after soaking it in water and cooking it, and it’s fine.”

Everyone was still dubious after hearing this, but considering that their Ran Ran was enlightened by an old god and personally taught her medical skills, if she said it was okay, then it must be okay.

As a result, the three brothers of the Qiao family all got busy happily.

Heat hot water, drain the chicken blood, pluck the feathers, take out the chicken's internal organs, and divide the chicken into two halves. Use one half to make chicken soup with mushrooms and the other half to fry the fungus.

Chicken blood is also a delicacy. Chicken blood will solidify in salt water. Just cut it into pieces and put it in the pot when the chicken soup is almost cooked. In this way, the cooked chicken blood will not be too old and will be tender and delicious.

They only kept the chicken heart, kidneys and livers from the chicken's internal organs, and threw away the rest.

Qiao Ran felt that it was a pity. The chicken intestines were actually quite delicious. However, it was difficult to use water now. There was not so much water to wash these internal organs, so she had to throw away the intestines that were difficult to clean.

In less than half a quarter of an hour, the aroma of Qiao's fragrant mushroom and chicken soup and chicken fried fungus spread throughout the entire fleeing team.

"What does this smell like? Why does it smell so good?"

"Oh, my mouth is watering. Whose cooking is so delicious?"

"It smells like chicken soup. What's the strong aroma?"

"I just saw Qiao Ran catching a pheasant from the woods. It must be the Qiao family making chicken soup, right?"

Everyone smelled the fragrance and looked around, and finally their eyes were fixed on the Qiao family.

"Hui Niang, what delicious food did you make at home? Why does it taste so good?"

An aunt asked Chen Huiniang loudly.

The other villagers also looked at Chen Huiniang. The fragrance was so tempting. They also wanted to know what it was that was so tempting that it could bring out the greed in people's stomachs.

Chen Huiniang smiled and replied: "My Ranran caught a pheasant from the forest. This is chicken soup made with dried mushrooms."

"Are dried mushrooms so fragrant? We have eaten a lot of mushrooms before, why don't they have this fragrance?"

Chen Huiniang didn't know that she had never smelled such fragrant mushrooms before.

Qiao Ran replied on behalf of her mother: "This is a shiitake mushroom. It has a unique fragrance and is not an ordinary mushroom."

Everyone couldn't help but be amazed: "What do shiitake mushrooms look like? Are they the same as mushrooms? Why are they so fragrant?"

"They look similar, but mushrooms generally grow on the ground, while shiitake mushrooms grow on wood."

"Can those mushrooms on the wood be eaten? Aren't they said to be poisonous? Old people say that you can't eat anything growing on the wood, as it will kill you."

"Some are poisonous, some are not poisonous. I will teach you how to identify mushrooms and fungus when I have the opportunity in the future. Fungus can be eaten when dried, and can be used for stir-fry or soup after being soaked in water. Fresh fungus cannot be eaten and must be left in the sun. Dry it in the sun, soak it in water and cook it before you eat it."

"Is that so? Qiao Ran, you know so much! Then Qiao Ran, you will teach us more edible things in the future, so that we can find more rations!" "Okay, no problem, I will definitely teach you in the future if conditions permit. .”

Qiao Ran thought that not only would she teach the villagers about mushrooms and fungus, but she might even lead them to start a side business in the future. The whole village would grow mushrooms and fungus together and sell them for money!

Smelling the smell of mushroom and chicken soup, everyone could only drool with envy and go back to continue cooking.

After the rice was cooked, everyone ate the oil-free, salt-free and fragrant boiled wild vegetables mixed with rice in their own bowls, enjoying the tempting aroma coming from the Qiao family.

I can only give full play to my imagination and imagine that there is a pot of fragrant chicken soup in front of me and that I am eating delicious chicken, so that I can eat a bowl of food that is not fragrant.

After the Qiao family's food was ready, everyone sat around, sipping their saliva, and staring at the two plates of chicken that looked very tempting.

"Ran Ran, please bring a bowl of chicken soup to the old village chief! It's not easy for him either. At such an old age, he still has to worry about the affairs of our whole village."

Mrs. Qiao said to Qiao Ran.

Qiao Ran responded: "Okay, grandma. In addition, I want to give another one as a gift."
Go to Qian Shitou's house. His leg is so seriously injured that it needs to be repaired. "

"Okay, let's fill two bowls!"

Mrs. Qiao readily agreed.

The eldest granddaughter is a blessed child. It is said that blessings overflow when they are full. Share some blessings to those in need, do more good deeds and accumulate virtue, and blessings will continue to exist.

"Sister, I'll go with you!"

Qiao Dong stood up.

His legs are now able to walk completely like a normal person. He also sympathizes with Qian Shitou and wants to help his sister.

Qiao Ran nodded, and the sister and brother each brought a bowl of soup and sent it to the old village chief first.

The village chief took the soup and was very moved.

"Thank you for remembering my old bones when you have good things!"

The village chief quickly asked his wife to get some of the few fried peanuts left at home and handed them to Qiao Ran.

Qiao Ran took it. She knew that the folk customs in Qingshui Village were relatively simple. When accepting things from others, they would usually give some gifts in return.

No matter what the return gift is, it is still a kind of intention.

The old village chief poured the chicken soup into his own bowl and returned the empty bowl to Qiao Ran.

Seeing that they were still holding a bowl of soup in their hands, the village chief asked casually: "Ran Yatou, are you sending it to your grandma's house or your second uncle's house?"

Qiao Ran shook her head: "No, this is going to be sent to Shitou. His leg is so seriously injured that it needs to be repaired."

The old village chief was stunned for a moment, but he didn't expect that they were not sending money to relatives, but money and stones to the injured in the village.

Then it became clear to him that Qiao Ran's grandmother and second master's family were not good to Qiao Ran, so it was right that she didn't want to give them anything.

I just didn't expect that such a precious chicken soup, with several pieces of chicken and mushrooms in it, would be willing to give it to unrelated villagers.
