Song Yingwan didn't pay attention to their attitude at all, and said with a smile to Xu Xiuyu: "Sister Xiuyu, there are many mushrooms on the mountain. I saw many people picking them today. Let's go together tomorrow." Pick more.”
Tang Xiaotang didn't have enough fun today, and when he heard that he couldn't care about the unpleasantness just now, he nodded sharply, "Yeah, yeah, I want to go tomorrow too."
Xu Xiuyu also smiled when she saw the two of them looking careless, "Okay, I'm good at picking mushrooms. I know where there are more mushrooms. I'll take you to your house tomorrow."
Yang Xue on the side was also a little moved after hearing this. She had never picked mushrooms or climbed a mountain before. She hesitated for a while and then said, "Well, take me with you. I want to go too."
Song Yingwan and the others were all surprised. Yang Xueyi behaved coldly and forcefully. Except for Lin Zhi who got closer to her, no one said a few words to her, but there was no conflict and naturally they didn't refuse.
When Lin Zhi heard that Yang Xue was going, she felt a little uncomfortable on her face and advised, "Xiaoxue, climbing a mountain is not easy and very tiring. Why don't you go? I'm afraid you won't be able to bear it."
Yang Xue, "It's okay, I'm not afraid."
Lin Zhi looked considerate of her, "Xiaoxue, the mountain is quite dangerous. If you get injured, you'll be in trouble."
Yang Xue, "It's okay, I'll be careful."
Lin Zhi wanted to persuade her again, but Yang Xue became a little impatient and said in a bad tone, "Oh, are you annoyed? Aren't they all gone? Nothing happened. You are more beautiful than my mother." Long-winded!"
Lin Zhi's face didn't look good when she said that, and she smiled awkwardly, "It's me who's troublesome." When she turned around and left, there was a faint cold light in her eyes, which was quickly suppressed again.
After coming back from work in the afternoon, Song Yingwan looked at the mushrooms on the ground. She didn't really intend to enjoy them all by herself. But forget it, there are some people who don't have any brains. It's not easy to feed white-eyed wolves, and neither did she. I plan to get into trouble with that.
After all, the mushrooms were half as good as those of Tang Xiaotang. Song Yingwan discussed with her and decided to eat them at night, otherwise the taste would be greatly reduced tomorrow, and it would not be easy to store. Tang Xiaotang naturally agreed, and Song Yingwan knew it as soon as she saw it. Knowing how to eat it, Tang Xiaotang couldn't help but look forward to it.
Xu Xiuyu happened to be cooking today. After talking to her, she readily agreed. Song Yingwan was only responsible for cooking the mushrooms. Xu Xiuyu made room for Song Yingwan after frying two dishes.
The mushrooms at this time were very fresh. Song Yingwan divided them into two parts, one for stir-frying and one for making soup. The mushrooms were cooked with chili pepper over high heat. Song Yingwan was afraid that the mushrooms were poisonous and there would be too many in the pot. Fry for a while.
The collision of mushrooms and peppers is spicy and fragrant. The soup is even easier to make. Tear the mushrooms into strips, sauté the green onion, ginger and garlic in a pan until fragrant. Then add the mushrooms and stir-fry until soft. Add water and simmer for a while. Then add seasonings to adjust the flavor and it is ready. Drink it in one gulp. It's also very rare to go down.
Song Yingwan and Tang Xiaotang picked these mushrooms one by one. Naturally, she couldn't make them simply, and she definitely couldn't let their efforts go to waste. So Song Yingwan didn't mess around with these two dishes at all, compared to the previous ones. The chicken stew is still serious.
The hard work was not in vain. The educated youths couldn't sit still in the room. Those who didn't know it thought they were eating meat today! It's so fragrant. They never knew mushrooms could be so fragrant.
After the dishes were done, Tang Xiaotang was extremely attentive and quickly helped Song Yingwan sit aside, while he was busy filling and serving the food. The others were also very active in eating today, and it goes without saying that he came to the kitchen.
No one talked during the meal. Song Yingwan had just gotten angry in front of so many people at noon. Now everyone was too embarrassed to move their chopsticks. They didn't know whether she was letting her eat or not.
Song Yingwan only targeted Chen Xiangdong and Qu Xiaoling today. She was quite willing to get along with the others in harmony. Now she knew what they were thinking and said with a smile: "We didn't pick many mushrooms today. Just have a taste!”
Xu Xiuyu also smiled and answered, "Then we are in for a treat today. I am happy to let you taste it, so I'm not polite!" After saying that, he put a chopstick into his bowl.
Zhang Guoan also said, "Then I will also try Song Zhiqing's craftsmanship."
When the others saw that Xu Xiuyu and Zhang Guoan had both eaten, they naturally couldn't help it. They were saying good things and moving their hands slowly. One bite was spicy, juicy, and chewy, and another mouthful of soup was still fresh. tongue.
Before Tang Xiaotang could react, he saw that all the dishes were being snatched away. He was so anxious that his face turned red. While rushing to put the dishes into his bowl, he did not forget about Song Yingwan and also helped her. After a while, The vegetable basin is empty.
Qu Xiaoling didn't eat a bite, but seeing everyone vying to eat the dishes cooked by Song Yingwan, she was so angry that her lungs were about to explode. When she looked up, she saw Chen Xiangdong eating too much, and she couldn't help but feel a little contemptuous. They had just eaten at noon. After scolding him, he actually acted like nothing happened now, he was really thick-skinned.
Turning her head to look at Xie Ci, she saw that he was also sipping the soup in sips. Although he was not as exaggerated as others, if you look closely, you could see that he was in a good mood, which made Qu Xiaoling feel even more angry.
At noon the next day, Xu Xiuyu and Song Yingwan were preparing to go up the mountain. The others saw and asked, knowing that they were going to the mountain to pick mushrooms, they wanted to follow them. The mushrooms they had yesterday were so delicious. , no one had enough to eat, but they were too embarrassed to eat for free, so they just went along to get more.
In this way, a group of educated youths went up the mountain in a mighty manner. The female educated youths were mainly led by Xu Xiuyu, and the male educated youths followed the old educated youths. The old educated youths all had experience and knew where to go and where not to go.
Song Yingwan also brought a hoe to dig some wild vegetables today. She knew all the wild vegetables and had eaten a lot, so she could dig them by herself. When she arrived, she saw a large patch of water celery, which was lush and tender. , it tasted very crisp and tender, with a fresh taste. Song Yingwan was so happy that she didn't care about anything else, she just squatted there pinching water celery, and occasionally found a few mushrooms.
As expected, there is great power in large numbers. In this afternoon, everyone picked several times more than the two of them did yesterday. Moreover, the old educated youths are all skilled at finding mushrooms wherever they are.
Xu Xiuyu saw that everyone had almost finished picking, so she greeted them back, otherwise the villagers would gossip. In the first few years when the educated youth came here, they quarreled with the villagers several times because they went to the mountains to pick things, and they almost got into a fight.
Most of the villagers protect their food. In addition, life has been difficult in the past few years. The food on the mountain is not enough for the people in the village. How can they be willing to give it to these people from outside the village? Therefore, they are not willing to allow educated youths to go to the mountain to collect food.
Everyone's life has become better in the past few years, so there are fewer such things, but it is limited to these wild vegetables and mushrooms. If it is a pheasant, a hare, the villagers are still not willing.
There were too many people going up the mountain today, and they were too eye-catching. Xu Xiuyu was worried that it would cause dissatisfaction among the villagers and the two sides would quarrel again, so she asked everyone to go back.
Everyone didn't think much about it. There was indeed a lot to see and there was enough for several meals, so they all went back obediently.
Song Yingwan and Tang Xiaotang came to climb the mountain at noon for two days in a row. Their bodies couldn't bear it. Their backs and legs hurt. When Song Yingwan went down the mountain, his steps faltered and he almost fell to his knees. At this moment, his arm was suddenly pressed hard by a generous palm. Hold on, so she won't fall forward.
When Song Yingwan stabilized her body, a familiar voice came from behind her again, and she smelled the faint woody fragrance again, "Are you okay?"
The people walking in front also heard the noise. When they turned around, Xie Ci had already put down his hand. When Tang Xiaotang saw Song Yingwan standing there with a pale face, he quickly ran over to support her, "Wanwan, Are you OK?"
Song Yingwan only felt weak in her legs and feet at that moment. She feels fine now, but she was a little scared. She smiled at Tang Xiaotang and said, "I'm fine. My legs were just a little weak just now. Maybe it was from squatting for a long time."
Tang Xiaotang also breathed a sigh of relief, "It's okay, then let's go back and take a rest!"
Everyone saw that nothing happened, and after a few words of concern, they continued to move forward. Song Yingwan took the opportunity to turn around and say "Thank you!" to the people behind him, and then quickly turned back, as if he was shady.
It took a long time before I heard the response from behind, "You're welcome!"
Song Yingwan didn't speak anymore this time, and she didn't know what to say. Besides, there were so many people around her, and she was afraid of ruining their reputation!
You can't repay kindness with hatred, right?
Tang Xiaotang, who was on the side, naturally heard the conversation between the two of them, and immediately noticed something was wrong. His eyes kept wandering between the two faces, and suddenly realized that these two faces were a perfect match. An idea flashed in his mind, and he seemed to understand something!
