Chapter 997 Touching the snail

That night Shi Wei stayed at the Shu Princess Villa, while Su You returned to Shijiazhuangzi with his two children.

Colander was about to cry when he didn't see his mother. Su You took out a metal ball with brass threads from his schoolbag: "Look, Colander, what did dad bring you back?"

The colander was immediately attracted by this shiny thing, and rolled the metal ball on the ground. The wire spring inside the metal ball was randomly moved by a small metal ball inside, making a tinkling sound, which made the colander excited.

He staggered and chased after him.

Su You secretly breathed a sigh of relief and said to the wet nurse: "Weier won't be here tonight, so I'll bother you."

The wet nurse was the one-legged aunt in Zhuangzi. She said: "It doesn't matter. I'm taking care of the colander. The child is strong. If he plays enough, he can sleep until dawn."

Although Su You had learned a lot of miscellaneous knowledge, his skill point was completely blank, so he had no choice but to look at the colander and let the wet nurse take charge.

Shi Wei was away, so Su You wanted to be lazy. As a result, after the bell rang at about five o'clock, the two children ran to his bed.

Bian Guan lifted the quilt and said, "Daddy, get up and go for a run!"

Wang Yanbi also pulled Su You's hand: "Uncle, uncle, you can't be lazy. Auntie said you must be lazy and want us to keep an eye on you!"

With no other choice, Su You had to get up, put on his clothes and opened the door. He was shocked again: "The temperature has dropped again!"

Today, Su You felt very confident because he only ran one and a half laps less than Bian Gu and the others.

When I came back from my run, I saw Hachiko wandering around the pond in front of his house: "The other ponds are all frozen. We have to fish today, so they all crowded into this pond."

When I talked about making fish and sour oil, I felt that my whole body was full of energy, and I was so happy that I couldn't help but say, "Then I'll help you when I send Bian Gu and Yan Bi back to school."

Hachiko said with a smile: "You don't need to, just set a net at the water outlet, and the fish in other ponds will fall into the net. It's very convenient."

"But there is a green snail in this warm pond. I estimate it weighs about forty pounds. If you have the ability, you can pull it out."

"Oh, I told you earlier!" Su You suddenly felt itchy and wanted to run away: "I'll get the fishing gear right now!"

"No!" Wang Yanbi stopped Su You: "Do some exercises!"

Bian Guan also helped: "Today is the teacher's break. We don't have to go to school. You will have to play with us later!"

"Okay, okay..." Su You had no choice but to compromise, and then criticized again: "Why are you playing for fun? Have you finished your homework?"

"We finished it yesterday!"

"This is wrong, this, how can the weekend homework be the same as usual?"

The two boys, Bian Guan, refused to answer this unreasonable question. Su You was dragged to the playground by the children and had no choice but to start morning exercises.

Ping Zhengsheng had already fought several battles with Zhang Er, and now the two of them were riding on a bench. Zhang Er was holding a long jujube stick and teaching him how to use Dragonfly Cut on horseback.

This was Ma Shan's strategy, and Su You didn't understand it either, but he knew that the dragonfly-cut spearhead only took Xiao Shitou half a year to assemble, while the black pole took two and a half years to assemble.

After the exercise, I brushed my teeth, washed my face, and had breakfast. Then I saw Su You fetching a fish basket: "Bian Gu, Yan Bi, how about we go touch the snails in the warm water ditch?"

"Okay!" Wang Yanbi applauded wildly. For such a fun thing, he usually only watched the children on the farm do it, and he could only carry the basket on the side.

The main reason Princess Shu knew that Su You was taking the child into the ditch was because she was afraid that she would relapse on the spot.

The flat jar was casual, Hachiko never paid any attention to him, but lived a healthy life.

After eating, we took a nap or two and went to the ditch that brought the warm water.

When the stone slab was lifted, warm water flowed in the ditch. There were many large and small snails in the ditch.

The warm water in Weishi is a calcium spring, which is very clear. It is only because of the snails at the entrance of the pond that they grow big and fat.

A big stone blocked the waterway. Su You was about to move it away, but the thing suddenly moved and stretched out a white snake-shaped head.

"Fuck me!" Su You was so frightened that he sat down in the ditch: "Snake! Be careful and stay away!"

Bian Guan and Wang Yanbi burst out laughing: "Hahahaha, this is the Jade Slave! Daddy turns out to be a coward!"

Yunu was not afraid of people at all, but was a little unhappy to be disturbed by Su You. He stretched out his paws and climbed over Su You's wet trouser legs, then entered the pond and disappeared.

Su You found that the current Jade Slave was different from the one in Old Man Zhao's wooden basin. The shell on his back was as big as a bucket bowl, and he also had a back of green hair on his back. His swimming posture in the water was very elegant.

"So unfriendly! Not as good as a wooden guest!" Su You waved his fist at the green figure in the water: "You scared me when we first met."

The water in the ditch was very warm, and Su You was too lazy to go ashore to change clothes. He tied the clothes around the waists of the two children: "Come down, I saw a big river clam!"

The elder acted accordingly and encouraged the children to go into the ditch. Bian Guan and Wang Yanbi looked at each other with excited expressions.

The three people packed the snails and river mussels along the ditch into a sack brought by Su You, and plundered more than ten kilograms.

While touching the snail oil, he explained to the children: "Turtles are reptiles. Reptiles will find a warm place to hibernate in winter..."

The flat pot took out a big snail from the moss and threw it into his father's bag: "Dad is not entirely right. Our Yunu does not hibernate. Hachiko said this is because it lives in a warm pond and feels uncomfortable.

When it gets cold, it won't hibernate, and it can grow as long as a tortoise outside in two years."

"Really? Hahaha, daddy is wrong again, Hachiko is right, there are exceptions to everything." Su You resolved the embarrassment: "Yu Nu is a special case among turtles."

Wang Yanbi also caught a big river clam: "Uncle, do you want this?"

Su You nodded: "Yes."

Wang Yanbi asked: "Can it also be eaten?"

Su You said: "Of course, there is a dish of cooking river mussels with grass heads in wine on Liangzhe Road. The taste is so delicious that it will make you lose your eyebrows, but no one in Bianjing knows how to cook it, so there are too many river mussels."

"But now is not the time. We have to wait until March, when the alfalfa grows and sprouts, which are the grass heads. At that time, the mussels are the most delicious. When cooked together, it becomes a good dish."

Wang Yanbi almost drooled when he heard this. He had never eaten what Uncle Su said.

In fact, there were many things on Sujiazhuangzi that he had never heard of before, but they were all delicious, such as carrots, cauliflower, bamboo shoots, pear, rice krispie treats, peach slice cake...

Seeing Wang Yanbi's greedy look, Su You said, "I'll make you a snail dish later. It's also very delicious."

"Shall we let go of the river mussel?"

"There is no need to throw them away. You can use them to feed chickens and ducks. The composition of clam shells is the same as that of egg shells. Therefore, if chickens and ducks want to lay eggs well, adding some clam shell powder to the feed can also help them grow

Must be strong and love to lay eggs.”

The elder and the younger were touching snails and clams, and Su You instilled knowledge into them: "In Rinan County in the South China Sea, there was a Xianglin County in the Western Han Dynasty. It was called Xianglin County in books, but later it was gradually shortened to Lin County."

"At the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty, the world was in chaos. There was a Zhan named Qu Lian who killed the county magistrate, claimed to be the king, and became the kingdom of Linyi."

"Later, Linyi became a country occupied by the people. The city was built with bricks and a layer of mirage was painted on the outside."

"The so-called mirage ash is made by burning conch shells from the sea into powder with fire and mixing it into mud. It has the same composition as the lime mortar we use to paint walls. This is also a production material made by local people based on local conditions and using unique materials there.

.”

"Actually, as long as we pay attention, we will find that there is another good thing in the river clam."

After that, he cut open the mussel and said, "Look, the shellfish has a membrane here. If sand gets inside and the shell is uncomfortable because of the sand, something will be secreted to wrap it up and make it become softer."

The roundness, over time, gives birth to the pearl inside the shell."

"Come on, let's open it up... Look, this is the inner layer of the mussel. If you touch it, is it very smooth?"

"This inner layer is called nacre."

"Pearls themselves are medicine, but because pearls are very expensive, many people cannot afford this medicine."

"But after we know that the composition of pearls and the composition of nacre are the same, we can use sandpaper to remove this layer of shellfish, and we can still get pearl powder."
