Meiyou heard about the news that her second uncle's family was moving here for a few days, and then she went home to confirm the matter.
By the time the Meiberry family arrived, the hut where groceries were originally stored had been cleaned up, and Mei Youqian didn't forget to carry the bamboo bed board over.
Mei Sanma and the others hadn't noticed the bed board before, but now that they saw it, they felt that the bed made of hay at home seemed a bit rough.
In the evening, Mei Sanma took the opportunity to ask Mei Youqian for advice on how to make a bed board. Mei Youqian did not hide his secrets and even said directly: "Oh, if you want to make a bed board, just tell me. We will be there tomorrow." While I'm repairing the house, I'll cut down some bamboo and I'll teach you how to do it in the evening."
"Thank you, second brother!"
While the two grown men were doing a series of things in the yard, from chopping firewood to exchanging farmland and making money to support the family, Wei Meili in the house was taking Miao to make fish balls.
"Oh my God, fish can do this!"
Miao's impression is that the smell of fish in the lake is strong. On weekdays, only when the family can't afford pork, would someone go to the river to catch fish and bring it back to eat.
After all, if you really want it to taste delicious, you have to add a lot of onions, ginger, garlic, and even a lot of oil.
When farmers eat meat, they just eat the oil and water. As a result, eating fish wastes a lot of oil, and no one is happy to let it go.
Today was the first time Miao saw someone do this.
Remove the bones and skin of two large silver carp, beat the fish meat into a puree and remove the tiny fish bones, and finally add egg white, salt and onion and ginger water.
As for the starch, Wei Meili mixed some flour into it now and stirred it together until the chopsticks stood firmly in the center of the bowl. The work was done.
"This fish ball is light, delicious, and economical on fuel."
Wei Meili understood Miao's sigh, and finally mentioned the advantage of saving fuel.
Wei Meili squeezed the mixed surimi into round balls and put them into the boiling hot water.
After a while, the white and fat fish balls floated on top, and even the boiling soup had a faint fish aroma.
"Catch some and save some for tomorrow. How about adding some cabbage to the fish ball soup tonight?"
Looking at the prepared fish balls, Wei's pretty face showed a satisfied smile. In the end, she did not forget to praise the heroine, "However, third brother and sister, your second sister is really capable, and we are taking advantage of it."
"No, second sister-in-law, please don't say that."
Seeing Wei Mei's compliment, Miao first pursed her lips and smiled modestly, then a hint of worry flashed between her brows.
"Second sister-in-law."
"Um?"
"Do you think I'm too useless?"
I don't know why Miao's mood suddenly dropped. Wei Meili turned to look at the other party. Although she felt that the other party was aware of her shortcomings, she still pretended to disagree on her face and said: "How could it be?"
"Erya's... temperament has changed so much recently. The head of the house and I have been thinking about it for a long time and haven't figured out why... maybe we are so useless that the child is forced to be like this."
Although Miao had also thought about the idea that some lonely ghost had taken over her body, she put this thought aside in an instant.
Her daughter is so good, how could she be like the kind that got taken over by a wild ghost and became hysterical?
Little did he know that the first half of Miao's words almost frightened Wei Meili to death, but fortunately the second half brought Wei Meili back to life.
Why would you ask her if you think so?
Wei Meili calmly lowered his head and scooped up the round fish balls from the pot, and said, "Don't you see it already, and why are you asking me? Isn't Erya's change good? If Erya hadn't changed, Can you come back after being sold by someone?"
Miao's face turned pale when she mentioned this. Yes, if Erya hadn't changed, the two of them would have been separated by a long time ago.
Miao's eyes turned red unconsciously, she sniffed and said guiltily: "I'm still sorry for Erya, if it weren't for the fact that the boss and I couldn't protect him..."
"Oh, okay, okay, everything is over. Erya's drastic change of personality in such an environment can be regarded as a blessing from the gods and Buddhas. It's great that you and Third Uncle were able to cut the mess quickly and separate the family in time, isn't it? "
Wei Meili put down the bowl and chopsticks, reached out and patted Miao to comfort her: "Besides, the temper between you and your third uncle has not been like this all day long. From now on, when our families are separated, your temper will naturally rise slowly, you know?" ?”
"good."
Mrs. Miao nodded obediently, looking like a little daughter-in-law, which made Wei Meili feel as if she had just talked in vain.
"Ahem, let's not mention this anymore. Where is the snail that my daughter brought back? We will get out the snail meat later and fry leeks for dinner!"
Wei Meili changed the topic and continued to follow up on eating.
"Oh, by the way, bake some more corn tortillas. And... can I put some noodles in that fish ball soup? Of course the noodles are from our house, and Berry's body needs to eat something good... "
Wei Meili and Miao Shi slightly raised Meiberry's health issues.
In fact, Miao had heard Mei Sanma say before that it was not that there was no rule of law, but the price was a bit high and it would take a long time.
Maybe her second sister-in-law and her family might only have one child, Mei Bei, and they would have to take better care of her.
"I understand, Second Sister-in-law, when the time comes, you can order some noodles for San and Berry, and we adults will just have some soup and tortillas."
The two mothers are also busy in the house, and the two little ones in the family are not idle at this time.
Mei Bei didn't expect that it was already evening and the heroine would come to the back mountain.
Hearing that Mei You was taking her to the back mountain, Mei Bei was nervous and scared, so she hugged Fat Hu all the way.
Fortunately, Meiyou had no intention of going up the mountain and just walked around near the foot of the mountain.
But even if she just wandered around, Mayberry's heart was still in her throat.
She remembers that she also had a famous scene where the heroine fights a giant insect that she didn't check out!
What is a big bug?
Isn't it just a tiger? !
When Meiberry thought of this, she was worried that the tiger hidden in her body would go crazy and rush down the mountain.
She's not ready to clock in yet!
Seeing Mei Bei holding the cat behind her like a frightened bird, Mei You did not continue to care about her, but just observed the movements of the small animals on the ground.
To be honest, Meiyou doesn't want to have to go deep into the mountains and forests to hunt every day.
And based on her current condition of thin arms and legs, it is estimated that her family would not agree if they knew she went hunting in the mountains.
Last time she was lucky, she caught the deer, and when she went down the mountain, she paid special attention to the area.
There are indeed many animals in the back mountain. Some animals, such as rabbits and pheasants, even run down the mountain to "add food".
All she had to do was find the right spot to set the trap.
"What are you doing?"
Mei Berry looked at Mei You bending over and looking around in front, and asked curiously.
At this time, Mei Youhou suddenly stood up straight, turned around and looked at her and asked, "Do you want to come together?"
"ha?"
Meiberry was stunned for a moment, then looked around the ground and saw that there were no wild vegetables that she recognized. Then she looked up at the surrounding trees, and there seemed to be nothing growing on the trees to eat.
Seeing Mei Berry's behavior of looking up at the sky and the ground, she finally mercifully explained to Mei Berry: "Do we want to make traps and hunt together?"
Facing the invitation from the heroine, Meiberry nodded in agreement without thinking.
Only then did she realize what she had just promised.
"Um...ah, I've never done this, no, do you mind?"
"I'll teach you."
Mei You felt that since he had decided to include Mei Berry and the others within his own circle, it would be good for them.
Otherwise, she wouldn't have taken the initiative to give Meiberry and his family a big fish in the afternoon.
But Meiyou regretted it later.
It wasn't that she felt sorry for the fish, it was just that when she was giving the fish, she suddenly remembered a saying: It is better to teach a man to fish than to give him a fish.
She couldn't give it to Mayberry and his family every time she got any benefit. The most important thing was that they had to learn it themselves.
"Okay! I will definitely study hard!"
When she heard that the female bishop taught her how to make a trap, Meiberry's eyes suddenly lit up. This was the female bishop's survival skill, and she couldn't miss it casually.
Before she started digging, Mayberry had already begun to imagine that she had fallen into a trap with countless meats.
Well, Mayberry no longer considered any prey in the trap, she had already imagined it in one step.
Digging a hole today will be full of meat tomorrow!
Pork belly is her favorite.
