Chapter 19 Acacia Rice

"Mommy, there are more mulberries this year than last year!" Aman was very happy. He was stunned when he looked at the blue mulberry knots on the mulberry branches. He couldn't help but curled his lips and said: "There are so many mulberries."

It’s not necessarily ours, there are many people in the village guarding it.”

"If you want to eat, there will be some." Xu Jiaoxing squinted her eyes, and the two of them passed through the sorghum belt and arrived in the forest.

There are locust trees, bamboos, and honey locust trees in this forest, but the most numerous are locust trees.

Xu Jiaoxing looked at the nearby acacia trees one by one. There were very few blooming trees. Although she was disappointed, she found a lot of acacia fungus.

This locust fungus grows naturally on locust trees and is often mistaken for Ganoderma lucidum. Its price is far less expensive than Ganoderma lucidum, but it is still not as expensive as cabbage.

In modern times, sophora fungus can be sold for dozens of pounds per pound!

Xu Jiaoxing looked around again on the locust trees, and really saw a lot of locust fungus. However, the number of them was very small. Even if they were sold, it wouldn't take up the scale. It would be better to wait for a while to pick them up again.

.

Thinking in her mind, she pulled Aman and walked forward along the forest. After a while, she finally found two blossoming trees.

Although these flowers bloom very rarely, fortunately, acacia rice does not require many acacia flowers, and these rustling acacia flowers are already enough for a meal.

Xu Jiaoxing quickly found a long pole in the forest and tied a sickle on it, and Xu Jiaoxing began to cut the locust flowers.

At first, Xu Jiaoxing cut off a bunch, and Aman went to pick it up. When Xu Jiaoxing realized that this kind of behavior was too dangerous, and a bad sickle would fall and hurt someone, Xu Jiaoxing

Then he asked Aman to stand a little further, and after she had cut off all the locust flowers, she went to pick them up one by one.

At first, Xu Jiaoxing looked at the sparse locust flowers and thought that she could barely eat a meal. Who knew that after she cut them all, she actually filled a basket full of them.

The acacia flowers are clusters of white butterfly-shaped petals. The clusters are piled in baskets and lined with acacia leaves. They are indescribably beautiful. Xu Jiaoxing took one and smelled it.

Smell it, it smells just as good as I remembered.

In her mind, the memory of the last time she had acacia rice had long been blurred. Xu Jiaoxing could not help but feel that she had never thought that she, who had been working hard for life, would be able to enjoy such a relaxation that she only had as a child.

Life.

At this moment, Xu Jiaoxing felt that she was very happy.

"Let's go." Xu Jiaoxing took off the sickle and rope, and her mother hurriedly went back to the house to cook acacia rice.

Acacia rice is actually very simple. It is best to choose acacia flowers that have not bloomed. Remove the peduncles and wash them. Mix them evenly with salt, oil and flour, then put them in a steamer and steam them for about ten minutes.

After returning home, Xu Jiaoxing boiled all the white rice in the pot. Seeing this, Aman couldn't help but said: "Mom, we can't eat so much."

Xu Jiaoxing smiled: "I'll send some to Grandma Sang later."

Sang Sanniang was sending both meat and seeds. Xu Jiaoxing had already felt embarrassed. She was only good at steaming sophora flower rice, so she should take this opportunity to give some to Sang Sanniang to try.

Try something new.

After hearing this, Aman didn't say anything more and just went back to the stove to light the fire.

When Xu Jiaoxing cooked the rice until it was medium-cooked, she poured the sophora japonica flowers mixed with oil and salt into the pot, then covered the lid and simmered the rice over medium heat.

In about ten minutes, the fragrance of sophora flowers came out along with the fragrance of rice.

Xu Jiaoxing asked Aman to go to Sang San's house and ask for some spring onions. She also chopped the spring onions into fine pieces and added them to the rice. Finally, she added some oil and salt. A portion of sophora flower rice was considered finished.

Already.

Xu Jiaoxing took out a large chipped porcelain basin and filled most of it. She handed it to Aman and asked Aman to deliver it to Sang Sanniang. She filled two bowls of rice and walked into the house.

When Aman came back, the whole house was filled with the aroma of sophora flower rice.

The little guy came back running and was panting hard when he got back to the house. When Xu Jiaoxing saw it, she couldn't help laughing and said: "Why are you in such a hurry? Mom won't eat alone."

Aman's little face turned red and he smiled: "This Sophora japonica rice is so fragrant. The more I smell it, the hungrier I get. Grandma Sang was embarrassed to accept our Sophora japonica rice. Who knew Uncle Shui Sheng would take it and start it?"

have eaten."

Xu Jiaoxing had never thought about feeding Yang Shui raw. Now when she heard this, she couldn't help but raise her eyebrows. However, thinking that she was originally repaying Sang Sanniang's favor, it didn't matter.

After letting Aman wash his hands, the mother and son began to eat sophora flower rice.

Because Xu Jiaoxing specially added more oil, the sophora flower rice is not only fragrant and delicious, but also full of oil. Although the seasoning at home is incomplete and lacks a bit of soy sauce, vinegar and garlic, it does not affect its uniqueness at all.

taste and flavor.

Aman was eating with gusto and didn't even bother to talk anymore.

Xu Jiaoxing saw it and couldn't help laughing: "You little greedy cat, eat slowly and don't choke."

Aman chuckled and praised with half a mouthful of rice: "Mom, you are so awesome. Grandma Sang didn't even know that this Sophora japonica can cook. She asked me about it for a long time when she saw it at first, and she only said that this rice

What is it made of? It smells really good, but it tastes even better when you eat it."

Seeing his happy expression, Xu Jiaoxing felt satisfied. As long as Aman liked it, everything would be fine.

"How many days will it take for me to cook it for you again?" She smiled, and Aman nodded, then shook his head hurriedly: "That won't work, rice is too expensive, and you don't have much money, so don't spend it.

It’s over, I’ll still be hungry when I go back.”

"..." Xu Jiaoxing was speechless.

Aman's words sounded like he was understanding, but when he thought about it more deeply, why did she think he was saying she was poor?

Although she is indeed very poor, as his mother, she still wants to show some respect, okay?

At noon, Ah Ming had enough to eat two bowls of rice, and his burps were filled with the scent of locust flowers.

Xu Jiaoxing packed the remaining two small bowls of Sophora japonica rice and planned to keep them for dinner at night. At this time, there was a commotion outside the dry land. Xu Jiaoxing looked back and saw one fat and one thin.

The woman was running towards her in a hurry.

In a moment, she recognized that the fat one was her third aunt, Xiao Wang, and the thin one was her mother-in-law, Xu Ma!

"Little whore, please tell me clearly! Can you beat the tiger? What on earth did you eat to dare to hit someone!"

As soon as Xu Ma came closer, he opened his throat and shouted at Xu Jiaoxing.

Her voice was so thick and loud that Xu Jiaoxing couldn't help but cover her ears in shock. At that moment, she actually felt that Xu Xiaohu was Xu Ma's biological child.

"Little whore, you are deaf, I want to ask you a question! Can you touch the little tiger?"

Xu Ma was originally very good-looking, but due to being too thin and having a mean temper, her facial features lost color, making her look like a naughty and resentful woman.
