Whose farming family has the male protagonist giving three piglets as a gift at the beginning?

Chapter 492 Bamboo Insect

"Didn't you go cut the pigweed? Where did the bamboo insects come from?" Su Ziling asked curiously.

"I went to cut pigweed, and then I met Uncle Yonghe cutting bamboo, saying it was for weaving fences. When he cut it down, he found bamboo insects, so he gave it to me, saying it was edible."

Su Zimu didn't feel it, but Axiu's facial features wrinkled up when looking at those insects.

"What about others? Are they still cutting?"

Su Zimu had a great time playing. The bug was white, plump and soft. "I was digging bamboo shoots. The bamboo shoots at his house were growing really well. I was also thinking that I would break off two and bring them back for frying." Here, Uncle Yonghe said he would deliver it to us in a moment.”

"You kid, you're asking for bamboo worms and bamboo shoots at the same time. You're so embarrassed." Su A'nai said to him.

"I didn't want to take it. It was forced by Uncle Yonghe. He said that he didn't have oil at home and the food he cooked was not delicious, so he asked me to take it back. He said that just calling him when eating would be fine. I thought so. , I brought it back." Su Zimu scratched his head.

"It's okay, Grandma. Uncle A-Yuan and the others are coming over for dinner soon. I just want to call Uncle Yonghe too."

A Xiu just threw grass to the rabbit, and his eyes narrowed when he talked about the rabbit.

"Sister, the little rabbit likes to eat vegetable leaves. He eats them so much that he throws away a handful and finishes them quickly."

"The rabbit grass you cut is all rabbit grass. He must like to eat it. You go wash your hands and come over and shell the peas with grandma. I'll cook the rice." Su Ziling stood up and kicked her legs, which were a little numb after squatting for a long time.

"Hey, you go ahead, grandma and I will do it." She responded in a clear voice. When she saw Su Zimu still washing the bamboo worms, her little face wrinkled again, "Second brother, hello. Are you done yet?”

"Come on, come on!" Su Zimu straightened up and looked at her and joked: "Is it that scary? Look how cute this insect is, white and fat, just like you, hahahaha!"

As he said that, he caught one and showed it to Axiu, who was so frightened that she stamped her feet, "Sister, sister, look at him, look at the second brother, he scares me."

"Er Niu, quickly wash up and go to the house. If you have nothing to do, go and memorize books and practice calligraphy." Su Ziling glared at him.

Su Zimu raised his eyebrows slightly and said lightly, "Tsk, you are a big complainer, are you ashamed? You complain at every turn!"

Axiu pursed her lips, "Sister!"

Su Ziling looked amused, "Go and beat him. If he can't beat me, sister, come and help you!"

Hearing what she said, Axiu straightened up instantly and rushed over, but was frightened by the insect in Su Zimu's hand and screamed.

Su Ziling stood aside watching the show, laughing so hard that she couldn't stand upright.

Grandma Su was sitting in the yard, looking at this scene and shaking her head angrily, "Is this how you, the elder sister, take care of your younger siblings?"

Su Ziling waved her hand, "It's okay, sister, they are just having fun."

"Have you finished the rice?"

"Ah! Yes, I almost forgot!" After hearing Su A'nai's words, she hurriedly went into the house to cook rice.

The two brothers and sisters were fighting and making noise in the yard, and the sound could be heard far away.

"Sister, come and help me, I can't beat you!"

Within three breaths, Axiu's voice came from the yard.

"Hey! Come right now. You hold on for a while while I steam the rice. If it doesn't work, ask your second brother to stop for a while. You guys start fighting again when the rice is steamed."

The two people in the yard were stunned and looked at each other, "Can this still happen?"

"Still fighting?"

"No fight, no fight! I can't even beat you. Sister, this big liar, agreed to help me, huh!" Ah Xiu grunted and walked towards Su A'nai.

"Grandma and sister don't even help me!"

"Okay, okay, your sister is joking with you..."

Listening to the commotion in the yard, Su Ziling chuckled and shook her head gently. The peas and rice were put into the pot at the same time. When the rice in the pot was about eighty-cooked, she scooped it into the rice cooker to drain the rice soup.

After putting the steamer in the pot, Su Ziling poured the cornmeal that had been rolled in advance on top of the rice and steamed it together.

When the rice is almost cooked, add the scooped out sour mustard seeds and steam them together. When the rice is cooked, the sour bean sprouts will be hot.

There was bone soup boiling in the gong pot. There was no meat on the bones, but the soup base still had a light white color. Su Ziling poured in the cut radish and cooked it together.

While the rice was steaming, she cut another section of tofu sausage, cut it into slices and put it in a bowl for later use. Broad bean pods were boiled under the steamer. When the rice was cooked, it could be mixed with cold water and eaten.

At noon (11:00-13:00), Mr. Su and the others came back first, each carrying a load of grass, while the oxen dragged two bundles of firewood.

"Xiao Qing, your Uncle A Yuan and the others haven't come yet?"

Father Su stood by the well and washed his hands.

"No one has come. I was planning to ask Erniu to call for someone." Su Ziling was frying the last bowl of tofu sausage.

Mr. Su entered the room, poured a cup of tea and drank it in one gulp, "Is the meal ready?"

"Okay, okay, you can eat when people come," she said, shouting to Su Zimu outside, "Er Niu, go call people over for dinner. Remember to call Uncle Yonghe."

"Hey, I got it."

When she heard the call for dinner, Axiu came in obediently to clean the table and set the dishes, "Sister, how many bowls can you get?"

"Let grandpa and the others eat those eight bowls first, and we'll sit at the small table." There were too many people, and the big table couldn't seat that many people.

The three of them, the sister-in-law, and Su A'nai, could only sit at the small table.

Su Zimu moved very quickly, and not long after he came back, several uncles followed him one after another.

When they came in, the food was already set, and the table was full of vegetables, including soft stewed bamboo rats, fried golden bamboo worms, and slightly curly pork, tofu, and blood sausage. (Picture of tofu blood sausage)

The white soup base contains radish that can be broken with just a pinch of chopsticks, with green scallions floating on it, and fried pickled vegetables with sour aroma. (Fried meat with pickled vegetables)

Looking at this big table, everyone was a little afraid to sit down, "Uncle, why don't you just eat something? Why are you so busy with this old Fengsheng?"

"How rich is it? They are all homemade pickles, come, come, come, sit down and eat, sit down and eat."

Mr. Su invited them to sit down and eat. Seeing that there were a lot of meat and vegetables, he got up again and went to find the wine jar.

When he came back with the wine jar, no one had done anything yet, "Eat, try that tofu blood sausage. I just made it this year. Didn't you ask your mother and others to help you two days ago? It's ready to eat."

"Use your chopsticks. They are all home-cooked dishes. This one seems to be a bamboo rat. Emperor Zizhong and the others caught it yesterday. Try them all. Come on, take a bite of all the dishes that go with the wine." He said that he was going to give them to them. Pour the wine.

Several uncles directly covered their cups, "Uncle, uncle, you can't drink, you can't drink, you have to work later, it's not okay to be drunk. You also know how much I can drink, just pour it in one glass!"

As he said this, several people burst out laughing, and someone else continued, "Then I'll take a bite with you, uncle. No more."
