Chapter 97
Although Su Jinse and Zhang Zhiwen have picked up the snails in the river for a few days, no one has picked up the snails in the river for many years. Even if they have picked them up a few times, there are still many snails. Moreover, the river is not small. It extends from the village above and leads to the direction of the Buddha Ling Temple dozens of miles away. There are many snails.
They don’t go to deep water to pick it up, they just pick it up in shallow water.
After a while, Uncle Lin also came. When Aunt Meng came home just now, when she saw Uncle Lin, she told her about this, so Uncle Lin also came with her eldest son.
When Zhang Youqian and his wife arrived, Aunt Meng and Uncle Lin had already picked up half a basket. When Zhang Youqian's wife saw it, her eyes turned red. How could this be done!
Aunt Meng actually told Lin Bajin that it was too much!
"Hurry, hurry!" Zhang Youqian's wife quickly took off her shoes and socks, urging her husband to get into the water quickly, for fear that the snail lion would be picked up if she was one step slower.
At this time, the sun was about to set, and every household was working in the fields, and they were almost going home. Seeing the family of Meng, Lin Bajin, and Zhang Youqian were all picking up snails and lions in the river, they were all surprised.
Didn’t everyone say in the morning that Zhang Tiezhu’s family was so poor that they could not open the pot and then picked up snails and lions? Why did their families follow them to the river to pick up snails and lions? Could it be that their families would not be able to open the pot?
Zhang Dafu's wife said curiously: "Meng, what are you doing? What are you doing when you pick up snail lions?"
"Pick up the snail lion and go home to eat it. Zhang Tiezhu said that this snail lion is edible, but it is delicious. Rich people in the county like to eat it, and they also said that the taste is not worse than meat!" Aunt Meng said without hiding it.
"Really? Then I'll pick up some back. How can I eat this snail lion? This shell is very hard." Zhang Dafu's wife said in confusion.
"If Zhang Tiezhu said that he didn't understand, he could go to his house for advice. He would ask her wife to teach us how to eat." Aunt Meng said happily.
Hearing this, Zhang Dafu's wife quickly threw down what she had in her hand and also participated in the action of picking up snails in the river.
When the others heard that this was as delicious as meat, they rolled up their legs and went down to pick up snails.
Zhang Youqian's wife gave Aunt Meng a speechless look. She was just a stupid person and was so shady. I would like to tell everyone that they all went down to the river to pick up snails. Where can I pick up snails tomorrow?
Zhang Youqian's wife became increasingly dissatisfied with Aunt Meng.
Zhang Youqian didn't think so much, just wanted to pick up more and go home and eat a few more meals.
So not long after, I saw dozens of people in the river, picking up snail lions and chatting.
One person asked, "Why did Zhang Tiezhu find that this snail lion can eat?"
"No matter how Zhang Tiezhu discovered it, we can cook meat tonight anyway."
“Yes, yes!”
Aunt Meng interrupted, "I heard from Zhang Tiezhu that this method was discovered by Ling Baoer. These days, Zhang Tiezhu has been going to the county to sell snail lions, and sells the fried snail lions to the county restaurant."
"Then I must have sold a lot of money, right?"
"Then I don't know, but I saw him bringing the meat buns back that day, it was so delicious!"
hiss!
When everyone heard this, they felt that their saliva was about to flow down.
Meat buns!
I can’t even eat meat, let alone meat buns!
If they also took the snail lions to the county restaurant to sell, they might be able to sell them for some money and return some food and meat.
