Chapter 435: Get some peanuts and eat them(1/2)

 The next day.

Morning.

Ye Shengge and Ling Xiaoru came down from upstairs one after another.

After breakfast, Ling Xiaoru went to work in the town studio, while Ye Shengge was preparing to go home.

Li You walked into the kitchen and took out the remaining morels from the storage compartment.

Walked out of the kitchen and handed the morels to Ye Shengge.

After Ye Shengge took it, he divided half of it out and said, "Take it back to your uncle and aunt, and they can try it too."

Ye Shengge had this intention, so Li You did not refuse, but said, "Okay, thank you."

Then he took out ten bowls of packaged salty roasted pork from the kitchen, handed it to Ye Shengge, and said, "Don't your grandpa like to eat salted roasted pork? This was just steamed this morning. Take it back to your grandfather."

Eat."

"Okay, thank you, boss!" Ye Shengge did not refuse.

Then let’s go.

Li You carried Xian Shao Bai to Ye Shengge to the parking lot and put Xian Shao Bai in the car.

Ye Shengge sat in the cab and turned on the ignition.

"Boss, I'm going to leave now and come back after a while."

"Okay, slow down on the road and pay attention to safety."

"Okay."

After finishing speaking, Ye Shengge drove away slowly in the car.

Li You returned to the front of the store and got on his motorcycle. He wanted to go home.

Take back the morels given by Ye Shengge and let your parents make soup to eat tonight or tomorrow.

Mom makes soup with ingredients like this, and it’s very delicious. Let’s take some ribs back and let mom make morel mushroom and rib soup.

By the way, I want to see if the corn at home can be harvested?

If it can be collected, Li You will help collect it.

Some corn is now ready to be harvested.

Set off.

……

There was no delay along the way and we returned directly to Changle Village.

As soon as I entered the village, I saw someone harvesting dried corn in a cornfield on the roadside.

It’s Li Chi.

Li You stopped his motorcycle and said hello: "Uncle Chi, you are doing well this year."

The corns in the field look really good, long and big. Many of them can reach at least 30 centimeters in length.

Li Chi was very happy to see it was Li You and said with a smile: "Xiao You, you are back. The corn in this land is indeed pretty good this year."

Li You asked again: "How much corn can be harvested this year?"

Li Chi said: "After drying, will it weigh 2,000 kilograms? Maybe there should be."

Li You nodded, "That's okay. This year's corn generally feels better than last year's."

Li Chi said: "Yes, this year is basically better. The main reason is that the rain was good before and it didn't dry out."

Li You nodded again, "Indeed."

After chatting for a few more words, Li You said goodbye and left, continuing to ride home.

It’s really good to be able to harvest 2,000 kilograms of dry corn. Of course, it’s also because Li Chi grows a lot.

For example, Li You's family only plants a small amount, but can harvest 500 kilograms of dry corn, which is as high as the sky.

After returning home, my parents were not at home. I wonder if they went to work in the fields?

Walking to the grape vine trellis, Li You picked a bunch of grapes. While eating, he walked out of the yard.

He plans to go find his parents.

He could call, but he didn't plan to call. He just went to find her and took a walk in the village.

Walking towards a piece of land called "Zhijiao Tu" in his home.

Mom and Dad might be there.

Halfway through, I finished eating one bunch of grapes. I should have picked two more bunches earlier.

At this time, I saw a bush of prickly pears on the side of the road. It was a big bush, and the prickly pears also had a lot of fruit, and they had grown quite big.

I feel like I should be able to eat almost everything.

In fact, it's not time to eat prickly pears yet. It will take about a month before the prickly pears are fully mature.

However, although the prickly pears in front of me are not fully mature yet, they feel like they should be barely edible.

Pick one and try it.

Li You chose the largest prickly pear, carefully picked it off, and then removed the thorns all over the pear.

Although the thorns around the prickly pear are prickly, they are not hard and can be wiped off with bare hands.

After wiping off all the thorns, Li You put the prickly pear to his mouth and took a bite.

Very astringent and sour.

However, this was within Li You's expectation.

Even when the prickly pear is fully ripe, the taste will be relatively sour, let alone now.

In fact, when you eat prickly pears, you get that special sour taste. It’s not delicious, but it’s often very nostalgic.

Therefore, Li You is quite satisfied with the taste of prickly pear in his mouth.

Not bad, it is indeed barely enough to eat.

Eat and continue walking.

After walking for a while, I met an acquaintance, Liu Jialiang. He was carrying a bamboo pole on his back and a hoe on his shoulder.

"Uncle Liang, are you going back, or are you going somewhere?" Li You greeted happily.

Liu Jialiang was also very happy and said with a smile: "You are back. I am going back now. Where are you going?"

Li You said: "Go to Jianjiaotu and see if my parents are there?"

"Aren't they at the top of the house? That might be over there. Go and have a look." Liu Jialiang said.

Li You nodded and was about to leave when Liu Jialiang said again: "By the way, you can take two corns to eat."

After finishing speaking, he put down his basket, took out four corn cobs from his basket and handed them to Li You. He then said, "These corns are too old to be cooked and eaten. But they are just right to be burned and eaten."



Young corn is usually eaten boiled and is very delicious.

However, if the corn is a little older, it will not be as delicious when cooked. It will taste harder and not tender, and the special aroma of cooked tender corn will not be strong.

At this time, you can change the way to eat it. Throw it into the stove of the wood stove and burn it.

This way of eating is also very fragrant and delicious, even more fragrant than boiled corn.

It's a bit similar to roasted corn, but different.

Liu Jialiang took four corns and asked Li You to take them home to burn and eat them. Li You did not refuse, but took the corns and said with a smile: "Thank you, Uncle Liang. The roasted corns are delicious and I like to eat them."



Liu Jialiang was very happy.

Then, the two said goodbye.

Li You took out the bracts of the four corns and tied them together. This way, they can be carried around, and the four corns are very easy to carry.

After the operation is completed, carry the corn and continue setting off.

Not long after, I arrived at Jianjiaotu, but I didn’t see my parents.

Not here?

But it’s okay, just go to another area and have a look.

Before leaving, Li You decided to pull up a peanut and have a look. Can the peanut be eaten?

This land is all planted with peanuts. Li You originally thought that his parents were weeding peanuts in this land.

Grass grows easily in the peanut field, so it often needs to be hoeed.

Otherwise, the grass will grow lusher than peanut seedlings.
