Chapter 28 A great harvest before departure

Mei Qian's cold joke successfully got Mrs. Mei's eyes on her.

"If you don't go and help, you'll be thinking about everything all day long."

Previously, Mrs. Mei thought that Mei Qian was considerate and cautious, but now she was stuck by Mei Qian's questions. She now disliked that Mei Qian thought about messy things all day long at such a young age.

"I know, I'm going to help big brother."

Mei Qian was sent away by Mrs. Mei and headed towards Mei Shitou who was cutting reeds. She planned to help Mei Shitou carry the chopped reeds.

I don't know if it was Mei Shitou's good luck, but he found several nests of water ducks just after cutting reeds for a while!

Mei Qian was transporting reeds to the boat at first, and then followed her cousin to pick duck eggs. It must be said that Mei Qian is a bit "egg-lucky".

Mei Qianguang thought that on the way to escape, she could find bird eggs on the plum stones in the forest several times.

Nowadays, water duck eggs can still be found in the reed swamps. This cannot be explained by simple luck.

In addition to duck eggs, her cousin also caught several palm-sized water ducks today.

"Sister, can you do these water ducks?"

Mei Qianguang stared at the wild duck eggs and didn't think about the water duck at all. Suddenly she heard Mei Shitou's question and her heart skipped a beat.

Let alone water ducks, there were only a handful of ducks that Mei Qian had made by herself before.

The fishy smell of duck is not small. Even if the duck meat is cooked, it is indeed delicious, but if it is not cooked well, it will be so unpalatable that you will roll your eyes.

[Xiao Mei, are the methods of making water duck and duck similar? 】

[Host, although I don’t know much about it, I think it’s safer to have a three-piece basic set of meat removal ingredients, including onion, ginger, and garlic, then you’ll be more confident. 】

Mei Qian:......

Very good. She had never been able to collect the so-called three-piece suit during her nearly two months of traveling.
"Second sister?"

Mei Shitou saw that Mei Qian was suddenly silent and did not answer his questions, so he shouted again.

"Ah, I should be able to eat it."

Mei Qian answered Mei Shitou's question vaguely.

Anyway, you can eat it when it's cooked. The only difference is whether the edible food can be put on the exchange platform in exchange for greater benefits.

Mei Qian was afraid that Mei Shitou would chase her and continue to ask questions, so she quickly turned her eyes elsewhere. When she saw her breasts bending over, she made an excuse to get in front of her breasts again.

"Milk, what are you doing?"

"Hey, don't be idle, just help me pick these Qianqu."

As soon as Mei Qian came over, Mrs. Mei ordered her to continue working. Mei Qian watched as Mrs. Mei reached out and pinched some tender stems with slender leaves and blue-grey plant heads that grew on the river bank.

Hearing Mrs. Mei call it Qianqu, Mei Qian asked curiously: "Nai, is this Qianqu edible?"

"Of course, although the taste is a bit bitter, it is good to eat more. Didn't our family have diarrhea last night? It stopped the diarrhea after taking it."

"Really?"

Although she knew what happened to her family members who had diarrhea last night, this did not prevent Mei Qian from understanding that Qianqu had medicinal uses.

"Not only that, if there is any trauma, you can crush it and apply it on the wound, and it will stop the bleeding!"

As she picked, she listened carefully to what Mrs. Mei said. In addition to Qianqu, there were many things here that she had never seen before, or that she could not recognize after seeing them.

Mrs. Mei carefully shared everything she knew with Mei Qian, and Mei Qian also worked hard to absorb the knowledge that she had not learned from books.

"Oh, this! Water green onion, everyone, come over and chop some of this." Hearing Mrs. Mei point to another slender piece of water grass for Han to do, Mei Qian was stunned for a moment when she heard the name, and then asked: "This Can you eat the one called water onions?"

"No, but it can be made into straw mats after it's dried. Isn't this what we have at home?"

Mei Qian was stunned for a moment, staring at the plant called water onion, but its function was very different from what she imagined. She felt like a fool again.

"Oh, this is cress, it's edible. I've eaten it made by others, and it's delicious."

As she spoke, Mrs. Mei pointed at another bush of wild vegetables that she said were edible and stared at Mei Qian longingly.

Mei Qian looked at the cress, then at her breasts, and fell silent.

Very good, she naturally recognized this cress, and to be honest, she had eaten this dish cooked by others before, and it was delicious.

However, she also said at the end that the food cooked by others was delicious, which meant that the wild cabbage cooked by Mrs. Mei herself was really not delicious.

Regarding this, Mei Qian also wanted to say to her breasts:

But I just thought about it in my mind, but Mei Qian only said: "Nai, I haven't seen this dish before. I'll have to trouble you to give you guidance on how to make it."

As soon as these words came out, Mrs. Mei fell silent.

If she could instruct Mei Qian to make it delicious, why would she have to cook it when she could do it herself?

So, when Mrs. Mei finally decided to pull out the cress and keep it for eating, she couldn't help but complain:
"How come none of this big family can cook? Really!"

Mei Qian: "..."

Ah... who on earth praised her for the delicious food a few days ago?

Why do you dislike a wild vegetable?
Even Mei Shitou, who was passing by with a reed in his arms, was taken aback by Mrs. Mei and said, "In the future, find someone who can cook!"

Mei Shitou:? ? ?

He didn't even have enough to eat, so why was he being pushed to get a wife?

"Ah! There are really good things here!"

At this moment, Mei Erhu's joyful tone attracted everyone's attention.

Mei Erhu found the fire folds and candles carefully wrapped in oil paper bags!
Previously, their family was fleeing all the way on the road. Every night when making fire, they would either rub their hands together and make a fire with smoky wood, or they would shamelessly light a fire from someone's house where there was a fire.

It's just that I wasn't so embarrassed when I was at the Chen family.

As soon as Mrs. Mei learned about it, she asked Mei Erhu to carefully put the things on the boat, and then cleaned up all the edible and usable things near the ferry.

At first, Mei Qian thought that her mother's urging to pack things and leave at night was just because it was inconvenient during the day. However, when she really listened to her words and started working, she realized that the time during the day was really tight!

How come this inconspicuous reed swamp has everything, edible and usable things everywhere. Mei Qian even stuffed some wild vegetables into her own system space.

By the time they had done almost everything, the sun was already setting, and it was even darker when Mei Qian and the others were standing in the reed marsh at a height of people.

"It's almost time..."

Mrs. Mei looked around and was about to start, but Mei Erhu's expression changed suddenly and interrupted Mrs. Mei's words: "Wait a minute!"

"what happened?"

Everyone was startled and turned to look at Mei Erhu.

"Listen, is there anything going on outside?"

As soon as these words came out, the scene instantly became quiet...
