Husband, Have Dinner - Chapter 207

“A cold noodle set meal.”

Pei Shuo chose a corner to take a seat and ordered without looking at the water sign. Although he hadn’t been here for a while, he knew everything about the water sign at Sun Niang’s foot shop.

“Prince Pei, it’s been a long time since I saw you.” Li Gang wiped the table diligently, shouted the name of the dish to the kitchen, and then talked to Pei Shuo.

Pei Shuo smiled and nodded, but did not speak.

The cold noodles came up.

Stir the dough with spinach juice and dye the dough green. The dough is stretched, twisted into twists, and the noodles are repeatedly stretched. In this process, the length of the noodles is increasing, and it is tough. Just use one hand to control the thickness of the noodles, boil it in a pan, add cold water, and stir-fried radish sauce, refreshing Bean sprouts, crispy cucumber shreds, seasonal vegetables, dried bean curd, braised egg, mix the noodles well, the chewy noodles are dipped in the flavorful fried radish sauce, a chopsticks hold the meat, bean sprouts and cucumber shreds, full of flavor. Finally, it is accompanied by a refreshing soup that changes every day, which is also a kind of adjustment for those who have been eating sweet and sour cherry meat and hibiscus chicken slices for a long time.

Pei Shuo mixed the cold noodles well, picked them up one by one, and chewed slowly. The street shops also had the feeling of an important feast.

His way of eating is in sharp contrast with the surrounding big bowls of wine and meat, and the talking and laughing traffickers and pawns. There is an invisible barrier between them. Pei Shuo’s loneliness and posture can’t affect them, and their circle spreads. Not to Pei Shuo.

“If you put Master Pei in the window, it is estimated that a large number of female family members will step through the threshold in our store.” Li Gang touched Li Rou on her shoulder, and she was dumbfounded, “Wake up and it’s dark.”

When Li Rou was awakened, Fen Fist punched him, “If you have the ability, please go and ask Young Master Pei to sit by the window.”

“I dare not dare, Young Master Pei must be waiting for Sister Yaozhu to take her home.” Before he had come to send Ayao home, they were used to it. Li Gang thought of the enviable look of Li Rou just now, thinking of a possibility, and said “Li Rou, let me tell you, if you find your husband and son-in-law, you must not compare it with Master Pei, then you won’t be able to get married!”

Li Rou glared at him, “I just need to find a husband who can subdue you.”

Go back and tell Ayao that Pei Shuo is here.

Pei Shuo is here?

A Yao was stunned, tidying up her hands, washing her hands, and cutting her hair before going out to see people.

“A Yao.” He wiped his mouth with a towel, and he was obviously ready to eat. Yu Guang noticed that A Yao came out, his eyes softened in an instant, and thousands of stars gathered in his eyes. “Let’s go.”

“Boss, let’s go first.”

It was already closing time, A Yao told Sun Niang and went out with Pei Shuo.

Pei Shuo usually doesn’t call her to go with him so early. It is estimated that something is going on. She just guessed it casually. He nodded in agreement, “Well, there are some things I can’t figure out for sure, but they are not important things, just think about it. “

“what……”

Pei Shuo stopped and asked, “If the locust plague comes, what will you do?”

Locust plague.

If the locust plague comes, it will inevitably cover the sky and the sun. The locust army will not grow any grass wherever it goes. If there is no food after eating, it will be ruthless to eat even your companions. In front of the huge locust swarms, personal strength will become insignificant. .

When Pei Shuo asked about this, Ayao was anxious, “Is it…”

Hush

Do not ask.

Pei Shuo shook his head at her.

“You must be careful.” A Yao said, he nodded and urged her to answer, “If the locust plague comes, the capital will not be affected, and the fields on the outskirts of the city will suffer.”

With that, they returned to Ayao’s house, Pei Shuo sat down in the yard, and Ayao went to the kitchen to prepare tea for him, and a small plate of walnut tea.

In her own home, A Yao speaks freely.

“The locust plague is really serious, are you going to catch locusts?”

“According to past experience, the association should form a group of ten to gather nets to catch locusts. I think the past practice has not been very effective in the locust plagues. Either thousands of white birds suddenly rushed to the migratory locusts, or they waited for the place. The migratory locusts migrated away from the scourge of locusts so that there was no more scourge. However, the locust plagues will occur again in the place that was scoured by the locusts.”

“Locust control…” Ayao vaguely remembered that she had read it, “After spring ploughing and autumn harvest, the plows are ploughed and the soil is firmed by cattle, sheep, etc., so that the locust eggs can be trampled away.”

The farmer used the method of digging up locust eggs. If you don’t do this, the locust eggs are in the soil, and two or three batches of migratory locusts can be born a year. Such harassment can easily drag down the economy of the local village.

However, what Pei Shuo wants is how to catch locusts, and the control has to be done by farmers who have dealt with the land for many years.

She thought for a while, “The locusts fly in one direction and have strong mobility. They can’t chase behind them. They have to fight head-on, and even if the locusts in the front are dead. They have to fly with them later, and they must die.”

“As long as the head is hit, the effect will be followed well.” Pei Shuo murmured.

“But it’s definitely more dangerous than tailgating. The locusts will also attack people. It’s terrifying that even children can bite.”

Pei Shuo “Don’t be afraid, you are in the capital, the locusts will not come in.”

Ayao held her cheeks, “You said that if locusts are as good as moths and make a fire, they will take the initiative to pounce in…Wow…”

Suddenly greedy.

Pei Shuo helpless “What did you think of?”

“It’s delicious. The locust legs are wrapped in flour and fried, or skewered into a string and grilled, sprinkled with salt, and they are crunchy.”

It was so delicious that the kids next door were crying.

“You just want to eat.”

“I’m a cook!”

“But can it really be eaten?”

Ayao snorted when she saw Pei Shuo’s suspicious eyes. There are insects in many places, such as fried cicada pupae, sheep scorpion, bee pupae, or a darker barbecue—the original skewered caterpillar.

Locusts are also worms, and when looking at the information, the legs of the locusts are slightly more fleshy than other parts. They taste good, but let alone eat them, she doesn’t even know what the locusts grow.

Fire, fire…

Pei Shuo thought about the feasibility of burning bonfires in multiple places in the field at night, and the more he thought about it, the more he could try.

“Also, chickens, ducks and geese eat worms, and locusts are also worms. Maybe they can raise chickens, ducks and geese to be fat and strong, boil chicken fat, and make mushrooms, hehehe~”

Anyway, A Yao thought of eating.

The sweet-scented osmanthus tree shed its leaves and swirled around the edge of the stone table, so that it could not fall off.

“Yeah, the temperature difference between morning and evening is big, dew stains clothes, don’t worry about cold.” A Yao pinched the leaf and turned, reminding.

dew?

Pei Shuo watched A Yao playing with the leaves in her hand, her eyes dazzled, the dew was heavy in the morning, and the leaves were covered with dew, and the same was true for insects.

He once saw a butterfly whose wings were soaked by dew that could not fly, but could only fly low, and finally he was caught by his wings. Then…would it be the same for locusts?

During the day, ten people lined up with nets to catch them. The vanguard squad was separated, put on the beekeeper’s mask, and hit the front.

Set up a bonfire in the evening, wait for the bonfire to light up before the sun sets, recuperate, and set off again in the early morning when the sun sets.

When the number of locusts decreases, organize the people to turn the plough, and then graze the chickens and ducks.

A series of plans, itinerary in his mind.

But before that, he dispelled his suspicion of A Yao.
