Longing for mountain village life

Jiang Tian went to the Westinghouse, took out the pickle jar placed on the wooden board, and rinsed it under the pressurized water well, these jars were cleaned by grandpa when not in use, so they could be used after washing a few times.

Over there, Grandpa had already washed the vegetables with Dong Shihao and put them in a plastic basket to control the water.

Grandpa began to prepare the seasoning, while saying: "Now this season, you can eat bamboo shoots, which can be used for pickling, but also for stir-frying meat, especially with bacon, the taste is simply amazing, the fragrance of bamboo shoots and the taste of bacon, the two are mixed together, put in the mouth to chew, the juice bursts." Dong

Shihao swallowed saliva when he listened, and Jiang Tian next to him also smiled bitterly: "Grandpa, we all want to eat what you said, or I'll go to the mountain to take a look."

"Don't, just rained, don't go up the mountain, it's too dangerous." Grandpa persuaded.

"It's okay, I know where the bamboo forest is, and I can see bamboo shoots after the rain, I'll go with Dong Shihao and come back in a while."

"Okay, pay attention to the way." Grandpa didn't persuade much, they were all adults, and it was not a dangerous thing to go out to find a bamboo shoot.

Jiang Tian found a basket and a machete, dragged Dong Shihao and ran out.

When he was a child, Jiang Tian followed his grandfather to the bamboo forest, and now he really misses coming here after so many years.

In front of them is a whole bamboo forest, how much Jiang Tian covers an area is not clear, anyway, it is very wide, and if you accidentally enter it, you may get lost.

It is said that mushrooms have sprung up like mushrooms, originally describing the emergence of a large number of things, but when they came here, they really saw what is called mushrooming.

There are many bamboo shoots popping up, densely packed, which is really spectacular.

Dong Shihao was stunned, "Is this a bamboo shoot, it's the first time I've seen it, it's really a bit awesome."

He rolled his sleeves and was about to go over, Jiang Tian hurriedly said: "When digging bamboo shoots, you must be careful not to get the mother bamboo, otherwise you will be exhausted and fish, you follow me to learn."

Jiang Tian demonstrated to him, and Dong Shihao quickly learned, and the two people struggled in the bamboo forest, and one after another bamboo shoots were put into the basket.

"It's so cool!" Dong Shihao couldn't help shouting, he was from the city, and usually the nanny in the family bought vegetables directly from the vegetable market to make them, even if he later followed his friends to the vegetable market to see bamboo shoots, it was already done.

Now it is the first time that he has personally dug bamboo shoots in the field, and only he knows the feeling.

Unconsciously, the basket was already full, and Jiang Tian pulled Dong Shihao, "Okay, enough already, let's go back." "

Let's go back." Dong Shihao is still a little unhappy, Jiang Tian will not let him continue to stay here, and he is still waiting at home.

Jiang Tian was carrying the basket, and Dong Shihao was humming a ditty behind him, really looking like he was traveling here.

When they arrived at the village, they met two uncles, Uncle Wang and Uncle Guan, who had come to their house to drink.

"Uncle Wang, Uncle Guan!" Jiang Tian greeted.

The two talked and laughed, and when they heard someone call them, Uncle Wang looked over.

"It turned out to be you, baby, this is going up the mountain, just happened to meet, come and get some fish back."

They put down the bucket, and one bucket contained a variety of fish, such as carp, crucian carp, white carp, and two small grass carp.

The other bucket contained shrimp, crabs, loaches, yellow eels and more.

The two also carried a net pocket containing a large number of mussels, which was not light.

"You're fishing!" Jiang Tian was surprised, these two uncles were really loyal fishermen, and they went to fish just after the rain.

Uncle Guan said proudly: "Yes, just after the rain, those fish were washed down, I pulled the old king's head over, there are still many by the river, and I am preparing to send these back and come back to catch the fish."

"Forget it, I won't give you any more, you two big guys, hurry back and grab buckets and nets to catch fish."

Jiang Tian saw that Dong Shihao's eyes lit up again, and he knew that his heart was moved.

"Thank you, uncle, we went up the mountain and dug up some bamboo shoots, you can take some back."

Uncle Wang looked at the bamboo shoots in the basket and praised: "The tender bamboo shoots can be added when boiling fish soup, and we two old guys can't go to the bamboo forest, so take some." "

The two men each took two handfuls, not much, they said they didn't want much, they said that they couldn't eat much when they were old, and they could eat these fish for a while.

Saying goodbye to the two uncles, they returned home, and the grandfather had already put the vegetables into the jar and added spices, and was closing the altar.

Seeing their basket full of bamboo shoots, he said with a smile: "You two are really powerful, these can eat a lot of time, the bamboo shoots are fresh and tender, it is not good to put it for a long time, but just take advantage of the good weather, give you some dried bamboo shoots, you can eat it as a snack in the future."

Jiang Tian put the basket down, "Grandpa, we just met Uncle Wang and Uncle Guan, the two of them caught a lot of fish in the river, let's go over and take a look."

"Okay, you guys go, don't play for too long." Grandpa nodded.

Jiang Tian went to get fishing nets, cages and buckets, and followed Dong Shihao to the river.

At this time, due to heavy rain, the water of the river is turbid and turbid.

They came to the middle and lower reaches, and one by one the big puddles had been filled, and the water was overflowing.

After the rain stopped, the water that had been overflowing returned to the river, but there were many good things left in the puddles.

The crucian carp flapped its tail on the surface of the water, struggling to get out of the water, and the dense fish inside remained in the only remaining river.

No wonder the masters want to come back when they go back, these fish are just waiting for them to catch them.

Dong Shihao was like a grandmother Liu entering the Grand View Garden, so excited that he took a fishing net and went to catch fish, which was a net, and then poured into the bucket.

Seeing the fish flapping its tail in the bucket, his heart was inexplicably satisfied.

Jiang Tian let Dong Shihao go fishing, and he walked towards the semi-dry water, where in addition to the fish, there was silt.

Reaching out and grasping in the mud, you can have a slippery feeling, your fingers are clamped, and when you pull it out, there are already two more fat loaches.

He saw a small hole that was bubbling inside, thought about it, grabbed a small fish and crushed it and put it at the mouth of the hole.

A layer of oil flowers rose on the surface of the water, and Jiang Tian waited quietly.

But in about ten seconds, a yellowed head stretched out from the mouth of the cave, just appeared, Jiang Tian's eyes were fast, and his thumb and index finger were clamped like this, like an iron tong, pulling the yellow eel out of the hole.
