After being absent-minded for a long time, Yan Hua withdrew his eyes, suppressed the darkness in his heart, and did what he should do.

Lin Xi on the side didn't realize it.

Lin Xi likes to eat spicy food, these pepper trees are pulled back and planted just to decorate the yard.

With Zanthoxylum bungeanum, it is natural to have chili peppers. Red chili peppers are the soul of many delicacies, similar to boiled fish, fish head with chopped peppers, and his favorite spicy crayfish. The bright red color can make the mouth water.

For Lin Xi, life is meaningless without peppers.

Yan Hua didn't ask any more questions, and silently pulled out five or six of them and put them into the back strap.

On the way to find peppers, Lin Xi found something new, an orange tree, but the tree was old and tall, so he could only pick a lot of oranges in disappointment, hoping to have oranges with seeds, and it would be best if he survived .

After searching this area, Lin Xi found a total of six or seven kinds of wild vegetables, each of which pulled a lot, but did not find any peppers.

Among the wild vegetables, there is a kind of red-stem Malantou with thin leaves and cute little fluff on the leaves. It is especially delicious when it is boiled in boiling water or stir-fried with garlic.

One is the purslane with hairless whole plant, purplish red stem and leaves like horse's teeth. It can also be blanched or stir-fried.

One is shepherd's purse, and mint and so on.Basically, they don't need too many accessories, which is more suitable for him who has nothing now.

Then when he followed Yan Hua to walk in, Lin Xi was a little disappointed, and bumped into his back again without paying attention.

"What are you looking for?" Looking up, there were eyes emitting green light.

"Chili, do you know? Eating it in your mouth will make your tongue hot, um... the kind that hurts your tongue." As he spoke, he stuck out his tongue unconsciously to show Yan Hua to look.

His eyes lingered on the pink tongue for a while, then he left and turned to his face. Yan Hua looked at him and said seriously: "There are at home."

"Yes? Why haven't I seen it before?" Lin Xi frowned, somewhat puzzled.

Yan Hua shook the basket behind his back, turned around and cut off the weeds in front of him with a sickle, "There are a lot of them in the kitchen."

"Well, then I'll go back and take a look." Lin Xi nodded and replied, probably because he didn't pay attention to it just now, he seemed to be busy cleaning the bedroom and kitchen, and didn't go to the kitchen.

"it is good."

Inadvertently aiming at a familiar plant, Lin Xi hurriedly asked 410 to scan it.

"The host is a plant called sweet potato. It is mature and can be picked."

After getting the correct answer, Lin Xi was overjoyed, walked quickly to the plant, and began to call Yan Hua.

"Yan Hua! Come here."

"Huh?" Yan Hua opened his eyes in disbelief when he heard the name, and his anger penetrated his heart for a moment, then he stopped what he was doing and walked to his side.

Lin Xi smoothly helped him unload the basket on his back, Yan Hua put down the basket with a gloomy expression.

Immediately afterwards, he held Lin Xi's shoulder, with murderous intent in his eyes: "What did you call me just now?"

Lin Xi was taken aback by him at first, but after hearing his question clearly now, he couldn't help thinking how he forgot this point.

"Master, just say Yan Hua, don't worry! 』410 spoke in time.

"Isn't it Yan Hua? I can read and write, and these two words are written in the marriage certificate." Lin Xi calmed down and asked calmly.

But I was not very sure in my heart: "Are you sure it's okay to say that? 』

"No problem, 410 checked, and there is indeed a marriage certificate. 』

"That's good! 』

After Yan Hua heard this, he stared at his face fiercely. Lin Xi hesitated for a while, but still chose to look at him.

Later, Yan Hua chuckled lightly, put down his hand, and said, "That's fine... What did you call me just now?"

"Dig this, the more the better." Lin Xi breathed a sigh of relief, wiped off the cold sweat that didn't exist on his forehead, and lifted the stems and leaves of the plants on the ground, signaling him to dig the buried part.

"Okay." Sure enough, he was the practical type, and he did it as soon as he said it. Yan Hua squatted down with the sickle and started to do it.

The atmosphere between the two gradually became cold, and Lin Xi desperately looked for a topic.

"Won't the sickle break like this?" Seeing him digging with the sickle, Lin Xi bent down to break the silence and asked him with his hands on his knees.

"There are still at home." Yan Hua replied in a muffled voice.

Well, Lin Xi will stop asking.

Although he didn't have any tools at hand, he still dug out a lot of sweet potatoes. Lin Xi roughly counted them. Even if he didn't have any food, the roasted sweet potatoes would still fill him up.

After a while, the basket was filled with sweet potatoes, Yan Hua got up and looked up at the weather, it was getting late, so the two had to go home first.

Lin Xi is not very used to using time scales such as Chen and Shi, so he can only ask 410 when he wants to know, and 410 will automatically convert to the 24 hours he is familiar with.

On the way, Lin Xi asked 410 for the time, but unexpectedly it was already four or five in the afternoon.

"Yan Hua, do you have an oil lamp at home?" Lin Xi asked casually as he tugged at the knee-high weeds by the roadside.

"No."

"Is there a candle?" He had no idea about the oil lamp.

"……No."

"No?! What if it's dark that day?" Lin Xi frowned and widened his eyes.

Yan Hua paused, and replied, "Sleep."

"..."

In another three or four hours, it will be dark... How can he carry out his activities like this.

Lin Xi sighed, there were no candles at home, so he had to prepare all the ingredients before dark and go to bed...

Yan Hua is obviously a person who doesn't talk much, Lin Xi also tried his best to find topics, and learned a lot of news about the village.

The first thing to do after returning home safely is to plant pepper trees around the courtyard wall.

The bare yard finally got a little life.

The two original trees in the courtyard were locust trees, and Yan Hua hung a rope between the two trees to facilitate Linxi to dry his clothes.

Lin Xi took a look at the two trees, and thought that they could be eaten when the pagoda trees bloomed.

After planting the peppercorns, Yan Hua took Lin Xi to search the kitchen and found a lot of dry goods.

The kitchen looks ordinary, but there is something really hidden inside.

It should be that Yan Hua purposely built a shelf out of wood and hung it inside the house, so Lin Xi didn't notice it when he came in.

There were lots of dried corn on wooden shelves, dried chiles and bunches of garlic.

"Why don't you put these things in the kitchen?" Lin Xi asked Yan Hua while instructing Yan Hua to get things inside.

"It's a gift from others, so I don't cook." Anyway, he didn't know that it was a gift when he bought the house.

A figure of about 1.9 meters stood in front of him, taking out the sundries from the shelf with ease, making Lin Xi look like a dwarf.

Holding the basin in his arms, Lin Xi took a step back silently, bowed his head to think for a while, and said with a smile, "Is it a gift from a neighbor? Did you return the gift?"

Yan Hua was stunned for a moment, and said with an inexplicable expression: "The meat is back."

"Oh." Lin Xi nodded, caught the sundries he handed over, and continued, "By the way, I'm cooking tonight, and you light the fire, okay?"

Yan Hua nodded hesitantly, patted the crumbs on his hands, led him out, and said flatly: "No need to ask."

There was a vibration from the chest behind him, and Lin Xi's heart felt as if it was beating a waltz with the unique warm breath on the man's body.

This man really poked his heart everywhere.

After digesting this sentence, Lin Xi rolled his eyes helplessly.

This big stupid guy, if he didn't have a different understanding than ordinary people, maybe he wouldn't know what he was talking about, but what happened before still left him with lingering fears.

The dishes served tonight are cold wild vegetables and stir-fried wild vegetables; because there are not many seasonings for meat, there are only ginger, garlic, peppers and the like in the kitchen. For the time being, we can only cook boiled chicken, and rabbits can only be grilled. After a long time, it will be tasteless up.

There is no oil at home, so I had to use chicken oil instead.

Although it is not good to eat too much chicken oil, it is better than nothing.

When Lin Xi was slaughtering chickens and rabbits, he found out that one rabbit was pregnant with cubs. Yan Hua touched the rabbit's belly and said that there were four of them in total.

Lin Xi stretched out his head from the kitchen and shouted to him: "Keep it. You can eat it in the future, why don't you buy some chickens tomorrow?"

It's a good feeling, you can feed the rabbits, and you don't have to worry about not having rabbit meat to eat.

"it is good."

Yan Hua conveniently built a nest for the rabbit, tied the rabbit's legs, and walked into the simple kitchen with the treated chicken and rabbit.

The kitchen can't be considered a kitchen, it can only be a small stove in the kitchen. It is also dilapidated and everything needs to be refurbished. I don't know how it was lived in before.

Pass the picked wild vegetables to Yan Hua and ask him to feed them to the rabbits, wash the rest in batches with water, mix half of them with cold salad, and half of them with stir-fry; then pick three sweet potatoes for Yan Hua to bake on the stove , Soak the rest in water and save it to make sweet potato flour or the like.

French fries seem to be good too, but you have to buy oil.

The kitchen was very hot, Lin Xi went out to get some air while Yan Hua was refining the oil, and only after Yan Hua finished refining the oil did Lin Xi enter the kitchen and take over his work.

"I'll do it." Putting the ingredients neatly on the stove, Lin Xi tugged on his sleeve to let him make way.

"En." Yan Hua knelt down to add firewood for him.

Lin Xi didn't drive him out either, just because he couldn't control the iron pot, so he had to get used to it.

All three iron pots are working, one for cooking, one for steaming rice, and one for boiling water.

The refined chicken oil is served in a small bowl, and the seasoning at home is only salt and soy sauce.

These two kinds are enough. When the oil is hot, add ginger and garlic to sauté until fragrant, stir-fry until golden, then pour the wild vegetables into the pot and stir-fry until the wild vegetables turn from hard to soft, and they will come out after 3 to [-] minutes of stuffing. pot.

Cold dressing is even easier. After blanching wild vegetables, put them on a plate, sprinkle with ginger, garlic, salt and soy sauce, and add a small spoonful of hot oil.

The hot water that Yan Hua had boiled early in the morning came in handy at this time.

The steps of the simple white-cut chicken are very simple. Anyway, Yan Hua said that he does not choose, as long as he can eat enough.

Throw the cleaned chicken into hot water and turn it over every 10 minutes. The chicken in Lin Xi's hand is not big, and it will be cooked in about 20 minutes.

He fished out the pheasant with bamboo chopsticks, and there was no decent knife at home, so the cutting of the chicken was naturally handed over to Yan Hua, a big man who worked hard and never complained, Lin Xi liked such a person.

Take out a small bowl from the cupboard, put ginger and garlic into it, pour in the ground chili powder, add salt and soy sauce, add hot oil, and set aside for later use.

The chopped chicken was set aside to cool, and Lin Xi turned to rabbit meat, the problematic ingredient tonight.

The main reason is that he has never eaten rabbit meat in his previous life. It should be similar to other meat. Yan Huazai has slaughtered it, and it will go bad if left unattended. Why not just roast it and eat it without dipping it in water? .

Therefore, the glorious task of roasting rabbit meat was handed over to Yan Hua again. Lin Xi sat next to him by the stove, and while eating delicious sweet potatoes, he instructed him how to roast it to taste.

After the rabbit meat is roasted, Yanhua still cuts it into pieces and puts it on a plate.

The sky gradually turned dark, and the fire from the stove lit up the house. The silhouettes of the two were elongated and superimposed together. The fly in the ointment was that the room behind them was too dirty and messy.

After several sneezes, Lin Xi decided to buy tools and renovate them tomorrow!
