[Farming] Orc's Little Silver Rabbit

Chapter 47 Chicken Stew with Mushrooms

When Shen Xiyou woke up, the sky was already bright, and pure sunlight poured in through the screen window, the sunshine in spring was soft but not dazzling.He sat up in a daze, and found that the surrounding was indeed empty.What about Eli?Although he was not fully awake yet, he reflexively searched for Eli.

Eli was washing sheets by the stream. He had never done this kind of thing before, so he followed the way others washed clothes from memory, spread the white animal skins on the stones, beat them hard with wooden boards, and then rinsed them with stream water.

Thinking of what Eli was cleaning, Shen Xi's face felt a little feverish, he shook his head vigorously, trying to get rid of the lingering images of last night in his mind, put on his slippers, wash up and make breakfast.

He boiled a pot of water, cooled a bowl of boiling water, beat the eggs and added salt, then poured it into the warm water, continued to stir well, and then put it in a steamer to start steaming.The steamer was placed on a small stove, where he lit a fire again on the stove and began to toast the breadfruit.After seven or eight minutes, the egg custard is ready to serve, and then add some chopped shallots and sesame oil, and the tender egg custard is ready.At this time, the breadfruit was almost cooked, so he took it out and sliced ​​it, and Shen Xi called Eli to eat.

This is the first time for Eli to eat egg custard. It is different from the egg custard that he has eaten before. The egg custard is extremely tender and has a smooth texture, which makes people unable to resist eating bowl after bowl.The two of them didn't speak while eating, and when their eyes met occasionally, Shen Xi hurriedly lowered his head.Eli looked at him calmly, with a faint smile on his lips.

"Eli, can we go out to pick some wild vegetables later? I heard from Noah that there are a lot of them on the back mountain." Shen Xi said while biting a piece of bread. Now all the vegetables in the house are eaten up, and there are still several more. Genius has a bazaar.During this period, he has to eat vegetables, otherwise he must be deficient in vitamins.

"Okay, this should be the season to eat spring bamboo shoots and elm money." Eli thought for a while: "There should be shepherd's purse and amaranth."

"Plump shepherd's purse is the best to make pork dumplings, and chicken shredded amaranth is also very good~" Shen Xi said cheerfully, "I'll bring a big wooden basin to pick it!"

"Wouldn't it be troublesome to hold the wooden basin in your hand? Didn't you give a basket when you bought the eggs?" Eli reminded him: "Pour out the eggs in the basket and put them in the cabinet."

"That's right, I forgot." Shen Xi was already full, so he put down the spoon to sort out the egg basket.

Eli consciously went to the stream to wash the dishes, and Shen Xi didn't need to urge him at all. He was always a clean freak and couldn't see such leftover dishes on the table.

Seeing Shen Xi carrying the basket in high spirits, Eli quickly put the cleaned dishes and chopsticks into the cupboard, turned into a beast shape in the yard, and motioned him to sit on it.

Since they came here, Shen Xi hasn't sat on Eli's back for several days.Sitting on Eli's broad back now, surrounded by a sea of ​​long fur, made him want to roll on it.He pressed against Eli's back, feeling the comfort and comfort of the spring breeze blowing across his cheeks.

The vegetation in the back mountain is very rich, and it is safe to walk in it.The poisonous or aggressive plants have been cleaned up by the Moon Clan people, and the large aggressive animals in this mountain have almost been hunted down by the Moon Clan orcs.So Eli let Shen Xi pick wild vegetables at the side with great peace of mind, while he searched for small prey not far away.

Shen Xi didn't know many wild vegetables, but he could recognize the most common ones: bitter cabbage, shepherd's purse and amaranth.Bitter cabbage can relieve internal heat and is most suitable for eating in spring.Whenever Shen Xi saw it, he dug it out with a small shovel and put it in a basket.The products in this forest are very rich and diverse, and he even saw wild plantains.

"Eli~" Shen Xi tentatively called Eli, but there was no response: "Could it be that he was catching some prey?" He put down the basket in his hand, hugged the tree trunk, and tried to climb up with hands and feet together. .

Everything was difficult at the beginning, after sliding down twice, Shen Xi finally climbed up the tall tree, broke off a bunch of tempting plantains and threw them into the basket.There were dozens of bunches of plantains on this tall tree, and after Shen Xi broke off five bunches, the rest could no longer be reached.Even so, it was a rewarding experience.He slid slowly down the tree trunk, counting the contents of the basket after reaching the ground smoothly.

But Shen Xi was still not satisfied, he wanted to find some stewed chicken with wild mushrooms.Chicken stewed with mushrooms or something, the chicken is tender and the wild mushrooms are delicious, and they are extremely delicious when mixed together.He really found all kinds of mushrooms under many trees, and he didn't want any bright colors and special shapes. He only looked for the ones similar to tea tree mushrooms.

At this moment, Eli came over with a big bright-colored pheasant. The poor pheasant was pinched lightly on the neck by Eli and died, with its head resting weakly.

Eli came just in time, and Shen Xizheng couldn't judge whether the mushroom in front of him was poisonous. Seeing him, he quickly pulled one out and put it under his nose and asked expectantly: "Eli, can this be poisonous? Can I eat it?"

Eli looked at the color, sniffed it again, and said firmly, "It's not poisonous, it's edible."

"Well, then I'll take them all back. Anyway, this kind of dry goods won't spoil, so I'd better store more." Shen Xi happily knelt down again to pick them.

Seeing the plantains in the basket, Eli couldn't help asking, "Xi, did you pick these plantains?"

"Well, today I found out that climbing trees is quite easy." Shen Xi sighed, "I really want to transplant plantains back, so that I can eat plantains every day."

"It's not difficult. Use your ability to transplant it and it will easily survive." Eli put the pheasant into the space ring, stepped forward, and uprooted the entire banana tree.

Shen Xi: (⊙o⊙) Ah!

So they went back with a whole plantain tree, and Eli planted it next to the baobab.

Shen Xi was very skeptical: Are the transplanted plants at noon really good?Isn't this the moment when transplanting is most likely to fail?

However, Eli took his hand and put it on the banana tree trunk, and there was a reassuring and obedient force in his faint voice: "Close your eyes and imagine how it looks alive."

Vibrant look?In Shen Xi's mind, the appearance of a banana tree covered with bananas appeared involuntarily, but isn't this the original appearance of this tree?When he opened his eyes, the tree in front of him remained unchanged.Shen Xi said very uncertainly: "Is this really all right?" Don't die in front of you tomorrow.

"Don't think too much, let's cook, aren't you hungry?" Eli pulled him into the house.

After being reminded by Eli, Shen Xi did feel that his stomach was flat.

The division of labor between the two was still very clear, and Eli dealt with the pheasant neatly.Because mountain mushrooms are fresh, they must be dried before eating.So Shen Xi took some Xianggu hair that had been dried before, soaked it in warm water, trimmed the roots, washed it and drained it, and put it on a clean plate.Then sit on the pot, put a tablespoon of peanut oil, add chives, ginger slices, dried chili, star anise, tangerine peel... and other spices, then put the pheasants that Yilai cut into pieces into the pot, and quickly cook them over high heat Stir-fry until the chicken is an attractive golden brown.Then add the shiitake mushrooms, fungus and warm water, and start to simmer over medium heat.

Mushrooms can always bring out the freshness of the chicken to the greatest extent. After a while, the pot overflowed with a strong aroma, which was so tangy that Shen Xiwen's mouth watered.

But he took out a large piece of chicken breast from the pot, let it cool for a while, and then tore it into thin strands with his hands.Wash the amaranth. Remove the old stems and yellow leaves of the amaranth, wash it and cut it into long pieces, scald it, and squeeze out the water.He uses a large pot on the stove to stew the chicken, so this time, when will the pot sit on the small stove, I will give you skillful oiling and seasoning. When the oil is hot, add chicken shredded salt and a spoonful of it Chicken soup, after it tastes good, take out the shredded chicken, add amaranth and stir well.

The color of amaranth is green, and the light fragrance is mixed with the strong fragrance of chicken, which has a special flavor.After it was out of the pot, Shen Xi roasted the breadfruit, sliced ​​the breadfruit and put it on the plate after the breadfruit was cooked. At this time, the stewed chicken with mushrooms was ready too. Two big dishes with delicious flavors and colors were served on the table, which made people appetizing just looking at them greatly increased.

Both of them were hungry, and they ate quickly after sitting down.After Shen Xi was full, he rested his chin and watched Eli eat, watching Eli, who is called the king of picky eaters in Hebrew, eat the two dishes quickly and gracefully, this kind of satisfaction The feeling is really good!

"Xi, what do you want to eat tonight?" Eli asked after eating and drinking, "I'll go hunting later, venison, suckling pig... what do you want to eat?"

"Deer meat? I've never eaten it. Deer are protected animals in our country, so they can't be eaten casually." Shen Xi said curiously: "But such a big deer will definitely not be able to eat it. How can the Moon Clan preserve it?" Do you want meat?" He has always been a meat-loving person, does Eli have to go all the way to catch meat every day when he wants to eat it?

"Some people use salt to pickle, some to dry, and some use to store a large amount of ice cubes in the cellar to form an ice cellar for storage." Eli said: "It's too late to make an ice cellar now, let's wait until next year."

"Then I'll pickle it with salt." Shen Xi tilted his head thinking about the steps of pickling: "But cooking wine is needed, is there any wine seller here?"

"There is a restaurant that specializes in wine and drinking, and I will bring it when I come back." Eli looked at him softly, stroked his cheek lightly, stood up and said, "Then I'm leaving."

"Well, come back early." Shen Xi watched him leave.Eli turned into a beast shape, and soon turned into a small white dot on the horizon, leaving only the white animal skin drying on the bamboo pole in front of the house, swaying in the wind. Shen Xi stepped forward to touch the animal skin, but it was still wet Yes, I guess I won't be able to do it tonight.

"This animal skin is difficult to wash and dry. You have to buy a cloth sheet at the market." He said to himself.
