In the end, Lin Xinghuai failed to catch the cicada monkey. It was already very late and he was on this mountain.

"Let's go back quickly."

Because a few people were fighting outside, the sun had already set, so they had to go back in the dark. Fortunately, they didn't walk far, and even in the dark, they arrived at the Bamboo Garden in a short time.

"Today has been really fruitful," Li Yuezhu led Xiao An and said to the two people behind him: "Today really impressed me with Xiao Jiu. I didn't expect her to be so brave, able to overcome difficulties and dare to challenge them.

, it’s really good.”

Lin Xinghuai felt extremely uncomfortable listening behind him. He didn't know what was wrong with him. He was so timid today. If it had been in the past, he would have charged into battle long ago.

Xiao Jiu was already happy when she was praised. Nothing is more inspiring than others' recognition of her.

"Xinghuai is not bad. He has taken good care of his younger brothers and sisters along the way, but there is still room for improvement." Li Yuezhu did not favor one over the other, and also praised Lin Xinghuai, who was standing aside without doing any work.

"Of course, the most powerful one is our little An. Look at the cicada monkeys in this cage. They were all caught by this boy, and they were also carried in his clothes. But he is our big hero today."

Several people returned to the Zhuyuan happily. The garden had been tidied up by Grandma Zhao and Xiaoling, and smoke was coming from the kitchen. From the smell, 80% of the rice was almost done.

"We caught the cicada monkey today, so you can follow me and see how this cicada monkey is dealt with."

Chen Jiuying's excitement naturally hadn't passed yet. She washed her hands and then followed Li Yuezhu into the kitchen.

The kitchen was already filled with aroma, and Aunt Zhao and Xiaoling were also busy here.

"The ladies and gentlemen are back. My food will be ready soon. Don't worry." Aunt Zhao looked at the children who had returned kindly.

"Mama Zhao is really good at craftsmanship. The dim sum she made looks much prettier than the ones outside." Li Yuezhu picked up a piece of dim sum placed next to her, broke off a piece and put it in her mouth, and gave the other piece to Xiao An.

"Oh, what the hell, it's all just some little tricks."

Li Yuezhu took the small cage with the cicada monkeys, found a basin, put them in the basin, and washed the soil on them.

"Then heat up the pot, pour in oil, put these cicada monkeys into the pot and fry them before eating." Li Yuezhu said to himself, followed by two little tails.

Xiao An is not very greedy. He has long been tired of eating these little things. His family used to have no money, so in order to satisfy his greed, he often caught these things and roasted them.

"Stab-"

There was a loud noise after the cicada monkey was poured into the pot. Li Yuezhu, who was standing in front, didn't think anything, but the two people behind were really startled.

At this time, they no longer talked back, but stood together to watch Li Yuezhu's dangerous behavior.

Finally, I added a little salt and it came out, and it became a golden cicada monkey.

"Okay, Aunt Zhao's meal is almost done. Let's get ready to eat. After eating, we can rest early. There are still many things to do tomorrow."

Several people sat around the table and served food, one plate after another, including the plate of golden cicada monkeys.

Chen Jiuying and Lin Xinghuai really didn't dare to eat this food. Li Yuezhu picked one and stuffed it in his mouth. The familiar feeling lingered in his mouth. After stir-frying with soybean oil, the cicada monkey was crispy and delicious, full of protein.

Li Yuezhu was extremely satisfied.

Xiao An saw the golden cicada monkey, and it was the first time he saw it. In the past, it was always roasted and black, with a little bit of undercooking in the middle. He picked one up with chopsticks and put it into his mouth.

"Wow, the shells fried by my sister are much more delicious than the ones I baked." Xiao An said vaguely. Before the cicada monkey in his mouth could swallow it, he used chopsticks to add another one.

Chen Jiuying was also bold. When she saw the two siblings eating happily, she also added a chopstick and stuffed it into her mouth with her eyes closed.

The feeling when it enters the mouth is really extraordinary. Although it is a bit hard, it does not affect the taste. It is crispy and has some sourness in the mouth. Chen Jiuying immediately fell in love with this taste.

Lin Xinghuai saw that the people around the table were eating so happily, he also added a chopstick, hesitated for a long time, and did not dare to put it in his mouth. Seeing the bug staring at him, he was frightened.

.

Chen Jiuying looked at the timid Lin Xinghuai over there and didn't use words to stimulate him. It would be better if she didn't eat. If she didn't eat, it would be easier for her.

"There's only one left, Xinghuai, why don't you give it a try?"

Li Yuezhu put the one on Lin Xinghuai's plate and looked at him shaking his head in fear. Li Yuezhu sighed helplessly and advised him: "You should also break through yourself. Don't look at Xiaojiu, a woman."

The children are more courageous than you."

Lin Xinghuai looked left and right, feeling really embarrassed, but he just ate one, so he gritted his teeth, opened his mouth, chewed a few times, and then swallowed it whole.

It wasn't until he swallowed it that he could appreciate the taste in his mouth. Not to mention, the cicada monkey was really delicious. Looking at the empty plate, he regretted it. He knew he would have to experience this sooner or later.

It's better to taste the taste of cicada monkey as early as possible.

Li Yuezhu looked at Lin Xinghuai's regretful look, smiled and said to him: "Now I know I regret it, why did I go there a long time ago, but don't worry, if you want to eat it, we can continue to catch it in a few days."

Lin Xinghuai was really grateful for Li Yuezhu's thoughtfulness. Before he could say his thanks, he heard Li Yuezhu continue to speak.

"But let's get back to the topic. If you eat it next time, you will be responsible for catching it, Xiaojiu will be responsible for washing it, and I will be responsible for frying it."

Lin Xinghuai wailed after hearing this. She knew that this little aunt didn't have any good water in her stomach.

A few people happily finished their meal and sat in the yard chatting.

Looking at the bright moon hanging in the sky and the stars all over the sky, these days are so comfortable and carefree. There are no worries or worries. The mountain spring water can be heard splashing and the breeze is blowing. A few people can cool off.

Quickly sit in the yard.

"I didn't expect that this village is much more comfortable than the county town. If I were at my house, it would be extremely hot and stuffy right now, and there would be no way to cool down now."

Chen Jiuying was also filled with emotion.

"It's just that there are too many mosquitoes."

Li Yuezhu laughed out loud: "It's true, because this is on the mountain, there will be more mosquitoes. It will be much more comfortable when we hang gauze curtains and light aromatherapy in this small pavilion tomorrow."

Chen Jiuying became even more excited after hearing what Li Yuezhu said.

"There are so many things, I think it's pretty good."

Lin Xinghuai is really against Xiaojiu at every turn.

"What's better? You have rough skin and thick flesh, so you can't feel it. The mosquitoes here are buzzing, as if they are trying to eat people."

"Snapped!!"

Xiaojiu caught a mosquito, and it was a mosquito that drank blood.

"Look, look, Yuezhu, I really can't stay here. Although the scenery is pleasant and the environment is good, I can't stand there are so many ferocious beasts staring at me from the side. I'm going back first."

."

Seeing Xiao Jiu going back, Li Yuezhu also pulled Lin Xinghuai: "Let's go, let's go back too."

Back in the house, Xiaojiu kept complaining: "There are too many mosquitoes here."
