Chapter 166: I Still Have It in My Dreams
In order to prevent the chickens in the chicken shed from being attacked, Xu Yuan carefully checked the surroundings and found no traces. Then he cut a section of the mutant vines that were growing well in the yard and planted them behind the mountain behind the shed. He exchanged a small bottle of spiritual plant potion and watered them to let them take root quickly.
I looked at the chickens in the shed again. They were all nesting in their little nests. I turned around and looked at the cowshed. There was also a lot of straw in the shed, making a nest for Dahua to lie down.
As if hearing some noise outside, Dahua opened its hazy eyes, slowly stood up, and mooed at Xuyuan. Xuyuan touched its head and said, "Dahua, go to sleep. It's none of your business."
After finishing all the work here, he shook off the snow on his body and hurried into the kitchen.
At this time, Xu Zhi had already followed Xu Yuan's instructions and boiled a pot of water in a pot used for bathing. He then used chopsticks to pick up some of the radish leaves he had just picked and put them into the pot.
First blanch the roots of the radish leaves, and then blanch the leaves until they change color.
"You can fish it out now." Xu Yuan picked up the colander and handed it to Xu Zhi, then took out a clay pot that had not been used for a long time and cleaned it.
"You don't need to blanch it for too long. It's not like you're boiling it. Just blanch it for a few seconds and wait for the leaves to change color, then quickly scoop them out and let them cool."
"it is good."
After Xu Zhi took out all the radish leaves from the pot, he picked up one side of the radish leaves again and followed the previous steps. After finishing everything, he put them in a ventilated place to cool, and then scooped the water in the pot into a clean wooden barrel.
Clean the pot, fill it with water and cover it with a board.
There were many fruits and people roasting by the fire, adding firewood as needed.
"Big sister, are the radishes in our garden growing so fast? I don't see anyone else's garden growing so fast."
"It's so small and hasn't grown yet. Why did you pull it out?" Guozi took out the white radish from the backpack and looked at how tiny it was.
"Our family has grown so fast, it must be because the soil and feng shui of that piece of land are good. Maybe it's a treasure land."
"Didn't you just see the radishes popping up? So you pulled them up. They're a little small, but that's okay. Just pick a few and try them. Tomorrow I'll go to the county town and buy some pork bones to stew with the radishes. It'll be delicious."
Don't underestimate Xiaojiu's spiritual plant potion.
When I made a wish, I only put in a little bit secretly and didn’t dare put in too much.
Many people stood up excitedly and ran to Xuyuan, "Really? If it is really a treasure land, do you think if I bury some copper coins in it and dig them out after a while, will there be a lot of copper coins?"
Xuyuan was happy: "Hahaha, it's still possible if I think about it in my dreams, Xiaoduo."
"Oh." Manyu couldn't help feeling disappointed, pouted his lips and squatted back to the stove.
Xu Yuan picked up the radish water that he had just scooped into the wooden bucket, put it on the table by the window, and opened the window grille a little more.
"Xiaozhi, after the water in the wooden barrel and the radish leaves have cooled down, pour them into this clay pot and cover it."
"Sister, don't you need to add salt?"
"No, just leave it like this. Put this bowl on top later so that the water covers the leaves. Don't let any oil get on them."
Guozi was surprised: "Ah, is it that simple? I learned it just by watching my second sister do it."
"Me too, I learned it too."
Many stood up and said happily.
"It's that simple. The main thing is to avoid touching the oil, and to blanch the leaves for a while and let them cool."
Many people are curious: "How long does it take before it can be eaten?"
"It depends on the temperature. In such cold weather, it will take at least ten days for it to turn sour. Otherwise, if you put it in the cellar, it should start to taste sour in five or six days."
"Ah."

Village Chief Gu's House
Gu Qingming sat under the corridor, her feet swaying, the charcoal in the fire basket was emitting warm steam. She stretched out her hand to catch the falling snowflakes, but after a long time, she caught nothing.
"what the hell?"
Gu Qingming had no choice but to stand in the yard, squat on the ground, make a snowball, and throw it far away after making one.
I saw the snow falling on the roof.
An idea struck.
The small body is trying its best.
The snowball hit the roof, broke it open, and slid down along the eaves.
"Haha, this is fun, look at me smashing one."
Gu Qingming became more and more addicted to smashing things.
There was a loud bang, but it didn't hit the roof.
There was a pile of white snow on the floor of the corridor.
Gu Qingming quickly ran into the corridor, looked up and saw the bird's nest on the roof, which had been messed up.
"It's time for Dad to scold me again."
"Qingming, what are you doing sitting outside? Come in quickly, or you'll catch a cold." Xu Qing's voice came from inside the room.
"Catch a cold, catch a cold..."
"Shut up."
"Goo."
"Ah Qing, why are you getting angry with the bird?"
"Old Gu, just pamper it. I tell you, don't put it in the room. I gave in by putting it in the kitchen."
"Oh, if you don't put it in the kitchen, are you going to leave it outside to freeze? You are so cruel."
"Wuhei, just stand there obediently and don't come near here. Do you understand? Be careful or you will burn yourself." Village Chief Gu sat in front of the stove and helped to light the fire, and touched the bird standing aside.
"When I'm free tomorrow, I'll make a nest for it and put it next to the chimney. It's warm there and it won't get cold."
"Anyway, it's up to you." Xu Qing was shoveling the vegetables in the pot, and when he heard no movement outside, he shouted again.
"Mother, I'll sit for a while and come into the house soon." Gu Qingming immediately kicked away the pile of snow on the corridor to eliminate all traces.
"Come back quickly to eat, we have to go to school later."
Upon hearing this, Gu Qingming hurriedly ran into the house carrying the fire basket, "Dad, it's so cold, are we going to continue? It's snowing so heavily, the road must be hard to walk on, what if someone falls?"
"Let's talk about it later. You have to tell everyone if you don't want to continue. If you don't want to go, just stay home and review for a while. I'll come back and check it out later. You can decide for yourself."
Village Chief Gu put down his bowl and chopsticks, stood up and went back into the house.
"Oh. Then I'd better go." Gu Qingming picked up the rice bowl, took a bite and chewed it. He thought carefully that it would be boring to study alone at home. It would be better to go with everyone.
"Mother, when will my brother come back? It's snowing so heavily. Will it be hard to walk in the mountains? I was walking in the yard just now, and the snow on the ground reached my feet."
Xu Qing picked up a piece of fish meat with the bones removed and put it in Gu Qingming's bowl. "Eat it. You are talking so much. I don't know when your brother will be back. He should be coming soon."
"Eat quickly, the food is getting cold."
"Well, you eat too, mother." Gu Qingming also picked up the fish in front of him and put it in his mother's bowl.
Xu Qing looked up at the heavy snow outside and couldn't help feeling worried.
I don’t know if Qinghan’s child is dressed properly. When I came back last time, he seemed to have lost a lot of weight.
"Mother, where is Heihei?"
Gu Qingming ate the rice in his bowl, stood up and looked around, but did not see the black figure.
"It happened."
