Chapter 110 The Taste of Hometown

A fight of incense finally evolved into a sacrifice in the Miao village!

Ling Yuxin looked at the pious expression of the mountain people and couldn't help but sigh that Wen Yiming could really show off, but now he is better. Becoming a Miao village guest, long-term cooperation is more guaranteed.

"Sir, please rest assured. When you go back, Mengyao will present it with both hands as soon as possible!"

Lin Mengyao came to Wen Yiming and said sincerely: "I will see you again if you have the chance in the future. Please give me some advice when the time comes!"

After saying that, I turned around and left. This acquisition failed and it was useless to stay here. It would be more practical than finding another goal.

"Let's go, invite the guests to move to the humble house, everyone can eat and chat!" Grandpa didn't care about trying to keep Lin Mengyao at this time. He had exhausted his favors. The little girl was not good enough and could not blame others.

What's more, after the magical scene of Baidie Rouxiang, Grandpa has regarded Wen Yiming as a distinguished guest. Being able to cooperate with such incense masters for a long time is the most stable decision.

The group came to Grandpa's house. It was noon. Everyone was drinking tea and chatting. Grandpa smiled and said to Wen Yiming: "Sir, come from afar. I have no precious things here to entertain guests. How about you try the specialty of the mountain today?"

Wen Yiming said politely: "Thank you, grandpa, I tried our Miao people's craftsmanship at Afeng's house last time, and I'll have a feast. Everything is up to you!"

Grandpa smiled and nodded, asked his family to prepare lunch, leaving Dad Diao and Afeng to accompany the guests. Since they had been working together for a long time, Ling Yuxin began to discuss conditions with Grandpa, so there was no need for Wen Yiming to take action.

"Okay, the little girl uses tea instead of wine, and toast you all!" After several verbal battles, the two sides finally reached an oral agreement. Ling Yuxin raised the teacup and said with satisfaction: "I wish our cooperation lasts for a long time!"

Everyone raised their glasses and everyone was very happy. The person who was most excited was Afeng. He became the spokesperson of Miao Village in just a few days. He was fully responsible for the cooperation with Yaxiangju, which surprised him!

Although the huge pie hit the head, Afeng did not dare to have any bad thoughts. Whether it was Dad Diao or Grandpa, it was actually because of Wen Yiming's face that he agreed to cooperate. Without other people's help, he was nothing!

I secretly made up my mind to follow Yaxiangjugan. With a master like Mr. Wen, why worry about not having the chance to get rich?

Everyone was drinking and chatting, and the food was served soon. Grandpa pointed to a plate of green dishes and said, "Sir, please try it and see how the toon leaves here taste?"

"Every time winter goes and spring comes, the cuckoo begins to roar, the spring water thaws, and the whole country is full of spring." Grandpa pointed to the distant mountains and said, "The mountains in the distance are ethereal and distant, and the branches of Chinese toon trees of all sizes and small in the forest begin to sprout."

"When the spring breeze blows on three or five days, the bent buds and armors rush out from the purple-brown velvet layer to stretch their tender leaves. Under the moisture-filled sunlight, from a distance, the trees look like bright red flames ignited. The girls and children of our Miao Village can pick up bamboo poles and forks and start hitting the toon head."

Wen Yiming picked up the green and tender toon leaves and put them in his mouth. The fragrance swelled up on his face, sweet and delicious. He said with satisfaction: "I remember Mr. Wang Zengqi once commented on toon leaves like this. The so-called "one chopstick in the mouth is unforgettable for three springs!"

"The air of the toon head is the most refreshing and refreshing, making the body and mind feel refreshed. Wash the toon head and put it in boiling water and scald it, chop it and mix it with tofu, pour some small grind sesame oil, and without lifting the chopsticks, the moving color and fragrance have already floated into the mouth from the bottom of your eyes, making people feel refreshed in their expressions and mouth!"

Speaking of this, Wen Yiming's childhood memories evokes, and says emotionally: "There is an old saying in our hometown that the toon heads are bamboo shoots after rain before rain. The toon heads are very seasonal. The so-called toon heads before rain are tender and no silk, and the toon heads are growing on wood branches after rain."

"In our hometown, we only have side branches and buds that are slanted and slanted, without touching the strong toon head at the top of the main branch. The slant heads we have been cut off for a while, so my grandmother dries them and marinates them, put them in a water-absorbing jar and seals them. No matter how long it takes to open them, it will be like that, and the color does not change much."

"I still remember when I was a child, my grandma would cut the picked toon head into thin strips and mix with fried yellow egg skin, put it in a white porcelain plate, pour it on a boiled rapeseed oil, and serve it with a whole plate with green and bright yellow in color."

"Not to mention eating, just looking, it should be more pleasing to the eye. Chewing a bite of this Chinese toon head and let the air spread slowly in your mouth. It feels like holding spring in your mouth and enjoying it little by little..."

A sentence evokes everyone's memories of childhood, and Dad Diao smiled and said, "The mountain people use the head of Chinese toon as green onions and coriander to enhance freshness and remove the smell of fish, such as cooking fresh fish soup, sprinkling some Chinese toon leaves, and after eating the fish meat, the taste is, if you have enough, you can drink two large bowls in a row."

"The Miao people left their hometown and went out. Among the dry food they brought, there is Chinese toon pineapple, also known as Panchan pineapple. After eating such pineapple, they will never forget their homes thousands of miles away."

Wen Yiming smiled and nodded, "When it comes to Chinese toon, many people like to promote Taihe Chinese toon to the extreme. What are the so-called purple oil toon, black oil toon, red toon and green toon, and purple oil toon is the most important quality."

"It is said that during the Tang Dynasty, purple oil toon was used as a gift. Every time around the Grain Rain, the fast horses on the post road carried the top purple oil toon buds, and they rushed to Chang'an day and night. It was really a riding horse in the world. No one knew it was Chinese toon coming!"

"I don't know what kind of Chinese toon is in my hometown? I only know that it is all bright red leaves and shiny stems. Legend has it that it is dyed by blood from cuckoos singing, because cuckoos always like to stop on the branches of tall Chinese toon and sing long and spread the news of spring."

Wen Yiming commemorated: "In short, in my heart, the most beautiful thing is the taste of my hometown!"

"Well said!"

Grandpa was knowledgeable and could see the other party’s true feelings. He exclaimed: “Mr.’s feelings moved me. For us Miao people, our hometown is a safe haven. No matter how storms are strong outside, as long as you go home, there will always be your bowls and chopsticks on the dining table!”

The atmosphere became more and more harmonious, and grandpa admired Wen Yiming and Ling Yuxin more. He is worthy of being a child of a large family, polite and concise, and whether he talks or demeanor, he is a man of the world.

"Come on, try this dish, wild boar stewed with wild vegetables, one of our Miao people's favorites!"

A large iron pot was served with a steaming aroma, making the index fingers sensation. Grandpa dug up a bowl with a large spoon and introduced: "Not to mention the meat, the wild boars beaten on the mountain have a slightly rough meat, but they are full of lip service. It has a unique flavor when paired with wild vegetables in the mountain."

"Astronomical...covered bamboo shoots...pregnant ears, and...thorn rose moss?"

He smelled Yiming's nose and the fragrance of various herbal medicines came, and sighed: "I am worthy of being a mountain citizen. How can this be a pot of dish? It's obviously a top-quality medicinal food!"

"Hahaha, it turns out that I can't hide anything from sir!"

A Gonghuai laughed and said, "Our ancestors have been relying on the mountains for generations to eat the mountains. All of them are gifts from the mountains. At that time, when we went to the mountains to dig Chinese herbs, we often could eat Polygonatum, Polygonatum, Lily, and Poria. Eating these sweet and glutinous foods that produce saliva and nourish qi and blood is mostly to satisfy our hunger. It is not the popular medicinal and dietary supplements now."

"This is the Asparagus, Asparagus, the clumps of green and green figures half a person tall in the deep bamboo forest. Every February, the tender stems of the arrow will jump out of the surface. When you wait for a long time to pinch it off, it looks like a green jade hairpin, with a plump and crispy mouth. The smooth and greasy smell makes you feel like eating winter bamboo shoots and flat tips."

"The bamboo shoots are tasteless, only the thickness of a little finger. Peel off the green shell and are watery with a fresh and tender luster of white spirit. There are also common ears in wild ridges. Pull it out of the leaf sheath, pinch off the old shoots, and stir-fry them with spring snails and ham slices. Black, white, red and green. The beauty is that the meat taste is thick and mellow and fragrant, the vegetarian taste is clear and sweet, and the taste is clear, like traveling back and forth between the pure land of the world and the valley of the city."

"As for the roots of the thatch, it is as bright as white jade silk, pure and sweet, and it is blood-energized and blood-activated. The mothers in the village must use this to stew the old hen to nourish their bodies."
