After Yang Mengyu confirmed that Xu Youyou was their long-lost eldest daughter, she returned to the guest house and talked about it with her younger daughter Shen Ying.
Xu Youyou came down from the mountain, behind him Zhou Yao quietly dragged a little lamb with one hand.
While everyone here went to work in the fields, the two of them took the little lamb back home by taking a detour.
Xu Youyou happily put down her backpack, turned around and went into the house to get four or five bottles and cans.
I was lucky today. I came across a wild honey site on the mountain. After the two smoked the wild bees away, they left a little honey for the wild bees to eat, and harvested the rest.
I estimate that there are about twenty kilograms of honey, which is enough to last for a while.
When we were going down the mountain, we also met a wild goat, which was still a little lamb.
I previously promised Zhou Yao that he would roast mutton for him when he was well, but it didn’t come to fruition even after a while, so I arranged it today.
Zhou’s mother was taking care of her children and making clothes in the house. At this moment, she heard that the two of them had returned. When she came out and saw them, she was shocked.
So much wild honey?
The two people here put honey into glass bottles. Each bottle can hold about one kilogram of honey, and twenty-three kilograms of honey can hold twenty-three bottles.
There were not enough bottles at the back, so Xu Youyou went back to the house and rummaged for a long time.
Fortunately, she had cleaned and kept the canned fruits and the glass bottles left behind from malted milk.
After putting the others in the cabinet, Xu Youyou took out a can and made everyone a cup of honey water.
Wild mountain honey has high nutritional value and can be used for daily health care, beauty, or as a medicinal herb. It tastes sweet and fragrant, with the fragrance of natural flowers.
When you usually have a cough or phlegm, you can use wild honey with boiled pear or Sichuan clam water to drink. It’s a good thing.
The three adults made a bowl of water, and the three little cubs also held the bottles filled with warm water and sucked on them.
It’s not that Xu Youyou reluctantly gave it to them, but the gastrointestinal function of children before one year old is not perfect enough, and drinking honey water can easily cause discomfort, so it can only be kept until they grow up. .
Because the third child will only be one year old in another half month.
"Yuyou, this wild honey is a good thing. I'll mail some to your parents when the time comes." Zhou's mother said with a smile, and after she finished speaking, she thought about the taste just now.
Xu Youyou thought so too, and then smiled and nodded, okay.
After drinking the honey water, the three of them boiled hot water to treat the lamb.
Boil the whole body with boiling water to remove all the hair, then disembowel the belly, take out the internal organs, scrape and clean them, and finally use a knife to cut a few small incisions in the thick meat of the lamb legs. It was cleaned up in no time.
Xu Youyou took out all the prepared condiments, firstPut green onion slices, ginger slices, Sichuan peppercorns, aniseed, minced fennel and other ingredients into the belly of the sheep, and then rub the whole body of the sheep with the specially prepared sauce.
After rubbing, set aside to let it marinate.
Zhou Yao brought a shelf and fixed the sheep on the shelf.
Xu Youyou put the cleaned sheep's internal organs, sheep's feet, sheep's tail, and sheep's head in boiling water, then put them into a large iron pot to stew.
When stewing haggis soup, you must also add angelica, white pepper and white pepper powder, so that the stewed haggis soup will be delicious and delicious without the smell of sheep.
The fire in the stove gradually rose, and soon the soup began to boil. Xu Youyou changed to medium heat and simmered slowly.
Soon the whole house was filled with a strong and overbearing fragrance, and the deliciousness of the mutton soup rushed into people's nostrils.
Xu Youyou wiped the sweat from his forehead and looked back at the three little ones in the room. The sweat was dripping down to his toes.
The rice cake was spinning around her, and Harazi was competing with the three little ones, even better than her.
I was immediately amused.
Xu Youyou would like to eat a lot of delicious food with them, but she is still young and cannot eat many things yet.
They can’t eat mutton, but the mutton soup can make them drink some.
The mutton soup is boiling in the house, and wisps of charcoal fire smoke rise outside.
Zhou Yao is lighting a charcoal fire. The mutton has been marinated for enough time now and can be grilled on the charcoal fire.
Seeing that she had nothing to do without her, Zhou’s mother was watering the vegetables with a wooden bucket.
At this moment, there was a knock on the door outside the house.
When Zhou's mother opened the door, she saw the mother and daughter who had come to see Zhou Yao a few days ago, and she immediately didn't give them a good look.
"What are you doing here? Let me tell you, my second daughter-in-law and second son are very loving. Don't try to ruin their relationship."

After giving the warning, he was about to close the door when he was suddenly stopped by Yang Mengyu.
"In-laws, we are not here to see Zhou Yao this time, we are here to see Youyou." Yang Mengyu explained with a good attitude while maintaining a smile.
Mother Zhou closed the door for a moment, in-laws? Looking for Yoyo?
I secretly had some guesses in my heart.
Looking at the two of them again, the older one was smiling, while the younger one stood aside with a dark face and said nothing.
"Then you come in."
Thinking that it might be related to Youyou's life experience, Zhou's mother had no choice but to let the two of them in.
As soon as the two entered the yard, the delicious smell of mutton soup became stronger. They had smelled it when they were outside just now.
I thought they just bought some mutton to make soup.
Who knew that as soon as they entered the yard, they saw a whole lamb being roasted on the charcoal fire under the eaves?, Zhou Yao was brushing sesame oil on the sheep with a brush in one hand.
The mutton was grilled over the charcoal fire until it was sizzling with oil, and the meat was fragrant. Both of them couldn't help but swallow their saliva.
Yang Mengyu and Shen Ying were both shocked. Their living conditions were so good?
Even in their family, no one eats meat every day, let alone eating meat in this way.
Yang Mengyu comforted herself on the way here. Although Zhou Yao became the director of the county public security bureau, he was raising a large family by himself, so life should be tight.
Otherwise, why are they still living in the village when everyone is rushing to the city?
The Shen family is different. After all, they are also from Kyoto. They have been immersed in official circles for two generations. They have a certain family background and rich connections.
Yang Mengyu thought like this and felt confident again. She felt that Xu Youyou would be very happy after knowing that she was her daughter and couldn't wait to follow her home.
"Yuyou, the mother and daughter said they were looking for you a few days ago." Zhou's mother walked into the room first to remind Xu Youyou.
"Okay, Mom, help me watch the fire, and I'll go out and take a look."
Xu Youyou's expression was indifferent, as if she was just seeing an ordinary stranger. Mother Zhou couldn't tell Any emotion she felt could only be answered with a "yes".
Stay inside and watch the fire and the kids.
Xu Youyou came out of the room and met Yang Mengyu's smiling face, and Shen Ying who was standing aside, staring directly at Zhou Yao, reluctant to leave.
"Yuyou."
The corners of Xu Youyou's mouth twitched and she raised her eyebrows and said, "Are you, mother and daughter, here to persuade me to divorce my man today?"
Yang Mengyu looked a little embarrassed. She turned around and saw that her second daughter's eyes were glued to Zhou Yao. However, Zhou Yao didn't even look at them or say hello when they entered, so she felt a little angry.
He tugged the corner of Shen Ying's clothes fiercely and reminded: "Pay attention to your image!"
After speaking, he smiled and stepped forward to hold Xu Youyou's hand: " "Yuyou, this is not what we are here for today, don't get me wrong."
Seeing this, Xu Youyou put her hands behind her back and said with a faint smile: "Misunderstanding? We're not here to force people to divorce. What are we here for?" "
"Xu Youyou, do you have such an attitude? We are here to tell you about your life experience. If you want to know, just speak up." Shen Ying snorted coldly.
When she heard that Xu Youyou was her eldest sister, she was shocked. She didn't need an eldest sister, their family only needed her as a daughter.
She didn't like Xu Youyou at all, but her mother didn't listen to her and insisted on recognizing her back.
She also said that after recognizing her, he would lend her hand to arrange work for the three siblings, because her father was full of guilt for her as the eldest sister.Guilty, I will listen to her in everything.
Today, she had to drag her over to recognize her relatives. She originally wanted to come over to see how miserable the two of them were, but she didn't expect that it would be much better than she imagined.
My heart suddenly felt uncomfortable, and the seeds of jealousy and resentment were taking root and sprouting in my heart.
Why is she, an orphan, living so well? It's not Zhou Yao's ability that allows her to live a good life.
Otherwise, she was the one working hard all over the world. How could a village woman maintain such good skin, white and rosy, smooth without any pores, which made her jealous.
"Yingying!" Yang Mengyu immediately stopped Shen Ying and stopped her from talking any more.
"Yuyou, I know you have been an orphan since you were a child, but I want to tell you today that I am your mother, and you are a child of our Shen family."
Yang Mengyu had a look on her face Looking at Xu Youyou tenderly, he was looking forward to her joy and excitement after hearing the news.
Who knew that Xu Youyou said coldly, "Then what?"
