"My dear, this yam tastes so crispy."
Different from the vegetables she had eaten before, the texture of yams was sticky and crunchy.
"I just moved here and I don't have enough materials at home. After I bought some candy, I made carrots for grandma to eat."
"Drawing yam?"
Before Huang Xuecao opened her mouth, Ying Qingjia screamed out in surprise. There was still a mouthful of chicken in her mouth that she hadn't swallowed, and her eyes fell directly on Ying Qingci.
It seemed that he was waiting for Ying Qingci to talk about the carrot yam.
"Hey, dear, what is the cartilage yam?" Huang Xuecao spoke on behalf of everyone else.
"It's actually a dish made from sugar."
"Using sugar to cook?" This is the first time Huang Xuecao heard that sugar can be used to cook? I only know that sugar can be used to make cakes, but I have never seen any other uses of sugar.
"Yes, in fact, many dishes can be made with sugar, such as the yams in front of us and the sweet potatoes we have eaten before. The dishes made with sugar and them also taste very good.
It's like a caramelized yam, soft and sweet. The sugar juice is covered with the surface of the yam. If you gently pick up a piece, you can pull up the long silk. Take a bite and the sweet fragrance will be soft. Whether you are an adult or a child. , will all like it very much. "
'Suck--'
Ying Qingjia swallowed his saliva. Not only him, but also Ying Shuangzhu's saliva almost flowed into the bowl.
'Snapped! '
Huang Xuecao couldn't stand it anymore and slapped Ying Shuangzhu on the forehead.
'hiss--'
Ying Shuangzhu glanced at his mother with resentment and reached out to touch the back of his head.
Ying Qingci looked at this scene with amusement, "Nai, uncle, after we settle down at home, I will cook them for you one by one."
"good."
Ying Shuangzhu nodded in agreement quickly, fearing that his answer would be rejected by his mother if it was too late.
Huang Xuecao glanced at him angrily, "Did I lose your food or your drink?" As for you being so guarded against me?
However, she still didn't say these words after all. It was inevitable that the family would be so happy, so let's make them happy first.
"Sister, this yam and pheasant soup is really delicious. Can we continue to drink it next time?"
Ying Qingjia finished the soup in her bowl and looked at Xi'an Ying Qingci with some unfinished thoughts. She really wanted to drink one more bowl, but there was only so much in total. If she drank more, others would not be able to drink.
"I still want to drink more, what's wrong? The buns don't taste good? The pickles don't taste good?"
Huang Xuecao looked at Ying Qingjia with a fierce expression, but there was no anger in his eyes.
"Oh, milk, steamed buns are also delicious, but isn't the yam and pheasant soup made by my sister even better~"
"You brat! I don't even want to eat it. I brought this back from the mountain at my own risk."
Although she didn't want to restrict Ying Qingci's pace, she still felt uneasy about Ying Qingci going up and down the mountain alone.
Hearing this, Ying Qingjia's face straightened up, "Yes, I shouldn't be greedy."
These are the foods that his sister risked to bring them back. How could he just indulge in food?
"It's okay, Nai, you forgot that I have the ability to protect myself."
Ying Qingci looked at Huang Xuecao with a smile.
"That won't work either. It would be very dangerous for you to go up the mountain alone."
As he said this, Huang Xuecao's expression became more and more serious, "No, if you go up the mountain in the future, take your uncle or Ajia with you. I feel more at ease with them both by your side."
Ying Qingci saw Huang Xuecao's firm attitude and nodded, "Okay, if we go into the mountains later, I will go with my second brother and my uncle."
Saying this, Huang Xuecao felt a lot more relieved.
While chatting, they talked about how Ying Wangzhu and Ying Shuangbai went to the county government to register wasteland today.
"When I went to the county government today, there were still a lot of refugees there. I don't know if anyone from Yingjia Village escaped."
At first, what Er Leizi did was beyond their expectations. They never thought that Er Leizi would be so ruthless, disregarding the safety of the entire Yingjia Village, and even destroying the entire village for his own sake. people betrayed.
"Dad, even if there are, they may not come to the south."
Ying Shuangsong sighed. They came here firstly because of the current situation, and secondly because they had received guidance. Otherwise, they would not have settled here.
"Even so, there are still a lot of refugees."
"County Magistrate Wang hasn't figured out a solution yet?"
Magistrate Wang had talked about registration before, but now from the tone of grandpa and dad, it seemed that things were not going well.
"It's hard for us to talk about the matters involved. They are all matters of the county government. We are just ordinary people. We have no say in the matters of adults."
Ying Wangzhu sighed and put down the chopsticks in his hands.
Upon seeing this, Ying Qingci quickly changed the topic, "Master, did your registration go smoothly today?"
"Smooth, smooth." Speaking of this, Ying Wangzhu's face showed a smile. As an authentic farmer, he has a field and has peace of mind.
Although what he bought was only wasteland, as long as the farmers were diligent, food could be grown in wasteland, not to mention that Ying Qingci had mentioned before that there was a way to turn wasteland into fertile land.
"When we went to register today, we met Agent Si who took us to Qingyang Village yesterday. With his help, it went a lot smoother."
Ying Qingci nodded.
"Grandpa, I've been there and found that there are a lot of stones on the wasteland over there."
"Yes, there are indeed a lot of stones, and the land over there is not generally barren." Speaking of this, Ying Wangzhu frowned and remembered the scene he saw when he went to open up wasteland today.
There were gravels all over the ground, and the ground there was very thin and seemed a bit like sand.
This realization made him feel very unhappy.
"Grandpa, the gravel can be collected and we can use it to build houses."
Those materials that are mixed into the construction of houses at any time can strengthen the house and prevent it from collapsing easily.
As for the soil there, it has some sandy soil properties, but it is not sandy soil, it is ordinary black soil. If it is used properly, it will be a treasure land.
Not to mention, there's an abandoned lake there.
The lake is a very good resource that can be utilized. Perhaps, when the time comes, the site for house construction can surround the abandoned lake. Building houses around the lake and decorating it will be a good scenery.
"Moreover, with only the power of Grandpa and Dad, it will take too much time to clean up the wasteland. When the time comes, we can ask someone to help us clean up the wasteland."
"invite?"
Huang Xuecao frowned, partly because of the money, and partly because they had just arrived here and were still unfamiliar with the villagers here. The villagers seemed to be full of strangers to them. Can they really be trusted? ?
"Grandma, don't worry about this for now. We can ask the village chief first."
