Zhang Damei couldn't care less about the work in hand. He put the scissors into the basket and got off the kang to put on his shoes. "You watch your dad and the others, let them come back first, there is no need to guard there."
Dajiang went to the west room and called his mother, then ran out as fast as he could.
When Ning Yue rushed to the main unit, the courtyard was very lively. She finally found the four members of her father, her brother, who were haggard, unshaven, and in a mess in the crowd, "Dad, why are you like this? You are all fine. Son?"
"It's okay, you're fine."
"Then you go home quickly and have a bite to eat and take a rest. I think it will take a while to finish here."
Du Ermin didn't say much and led his three sons home.
When Tian Baofen knew her man was back, she kneaded the noodles neatly, cut into half a kilogram of lean meat, and made a large pot of shredded pork hand-rolled noodles. She put a lot of chili peppers into the soup noodles and sprinkled a handful of them when they came out of the pot. Dried coriander, chopped, smells very fragrant.
In the main room, the four fathers had already got on the kang. Zhang Damei put the quilt on his body, and then put the quilt on the legs of his three sons. "How is it this time? Is the harvest big?"
If everything goes well, we should leave the mountain in ten days. If we come back late, it means we won't gain much at the beginning, so we will be delayed for a few more days.
"I was lucky on this trip. Although I only hunted small prey at first, before I left, I encountered six wild boars and killed five of them. One of them ran away. Two people were injured while chasing the wild boars. They were slightly injured. Just take care of your injuries, and we also killed two wolves, three roe deer, pheasants and hares, etc."
Zhang Damei immediately breathed a sigh of relief: "That's good, that's good. There are five wild boars. It seems that we can share a lot of meat."
After the team handed over the mission pig, his family divided more than ten kilograms of meat per head. Of course, the meat had to be paid according to the price. The more than ten kilograms of meat had not been touched much and was frozen in the snow. The wild boar that Ning Yue brought back last time still had eighty or ninety kilograms of meat. This time, she could still get more than ten kilograms of meat from the hunt. This year is probably the fattest year that their family has experienced in so many years.
Xiaohe placed the small Kang table on the Kang in the main room, and put the basin with shredded pork and hand-rolled noodles on the table. Zhang Damei quickly served the rice to her husband and son, "Eat quickly, we'll be in this room after you finish." Go to sleep, the kang has been burning all day and it’s warm, and there will be no problem with Dajiang and his sister-in-law watching over the meat sharing."
Du Ermin pulled out the poached eggs from the bowl and took a bite. "Hey, after taking a bite of the food at home, my heart will feel at ease."
The hunting team must not have eaten well or slept well in the mountains for more than ten days. When going down the mountain, they have to carry the prey for such a long distance. You can imagine how tired they are.
The four father and son devoured the entire bowl of noodles. It took nearly an hour before Dajiang entered the courtyard carrying a large piece of meat.
Zhang Damei asked: "How many kilograms of meat were divided?"
Ning Yue said: "We have a large family, and we could have divided the meat at twenty-one kilograms, so I simply asked for all the roe deer meat, leaving only eighteen and a half kilograms."
I have wild boar meat at home. I want some roe deer meat for a change.
As for why you don’t want wolf meat, I believe many people have heard this sentence: wolf meat is not delicious.
If you haven't eaten it, you have no right to speak, so Ning Yue only wanted the roe deer meat.
…
At this time, in the brigade headquarters, Du Taohua handed her share of meat to the fourth brother who came with her and asked him to send it back first, while her eyes kept staring at the educated youths at the educated youth spot.
Bai Yafang hasn't given up yet.
Of course, Chen Chen hasn't given up yet.
The educated youth, on the other hand, has gotten a little close to Qiao Wenliang recently, and the two of them seem to have that intention.
Qiao Wenliang didn't come. He was unlucky. One of the two injured people accidentally fell down while chasing a wild boar, and his feet were swollen. Others helped him down when he went down the mountain. The doctor in the village showed him However, the sprain is a bit serious and it will take some time to heal.
The captain of the meat-sharing team shouted to the crowd again, "The day after tomorrow, we will cut the ice to catch fish. Every family has a man. If you don't have a man, don't come to me to complain if you share the fish."
Everyone responded in unison: "I will definitely arrive early."
For such a good thing as sharing the fish and the meat, everyone is in a hurry, so there is no need to worry about someone not going.
…
Xu Yansheng stood in the crowd, and after Gao Zhidong got the meat that belonged to both of them, he went directly back to the educated youth camp.
"Should we eat this meat directly, or freeze it and wait for the Chinese New Year to be stewed?"
In fact, what Gao Zhidong wanted to say more was, could Ning Yue help make the meat, but he didn't want to be looked down upon, so he endured the latter sentence.
"what ever."
Gao Zhidong didn't ask anymore and simply froze the meat in a large natural refrigerator. The meat he stewed was really not very tasty. Besides, if he kept the meat, maybe it would turn into fragrant braised pork!
In fact, Xu Yansheng was thinking that according to the frequency of Ning Yue delivering meat to him, he should come over tonight.
Sure enough, after dinner, there was another familiar coughing sound outside the courtyard wall.
The house where Xu Yansheng and Gao Zhidong lived was on the easternmost side of the Educated Youth Point. To the east of the house in the Educated Youth Point was an alley, separated only by a wall. People in the house could hear the noise if it was slightly louder.
Xu Yansheng quickly put on his coat and told Gao Zhidong to take out the meat he had buried. Then, he carried the meat and walked out of the yard.
Bai Yafang happened to come out to add water to the kettle. Seeing Xu Yansheng going out in a hurry, she followed him out of curiosity.
Then, he heard voices outside the alley.
"Isn't this the meat you just divided? What are you doing for me?"
"We won't do it anyway. You have a lot of family, so take it back and eat it."
"I have a large family, and I have a lot of meat to share. What do I need from yours?"
Xu Yansheng didn't want to argue with her, so he just motioned for her to take the meat quickly.
In the end, Ning Yue had no choice but to take the meat over, "Okay, I'll take it then. By the way, this is the roe deer meat I stewed tonight. It's still hot when it comes out of the pot. Take it back and have a taste." At the worst, I can make it for him when I have time, and pay it back to him next time.
Then, the two separated.
When Bai Yafang heard the footsteps, she quickly retreated into the educated youth area and entered the female educated youth toilet. Xu Yansheng did not notice her.
Ning Yue heard a little bit of movement, but she knew that Xu Yansheng and Gao Zhidong were inseparable from each other, and thought it was Gao Zhidong giving Xu Yansheng a break, so she didn't say anything more.
She went to the east of the village as usual. These old people were not given a share in the village's meat distribution, but these were all her teachers. So, today in the space, she stewed a large pot of meat and steamed rice. When she was outside the shed, she took out the things. The lunch box was still hot to the touch, so she wanted to let the teachers eat something hot.
As expected, Mr. Su couldn't hold back the fragrant stewed meat and the white rice, and ate them directly.
Lectures start right after eating. Occasionally, ten or eight minutes at night is not a big deal.
…
After Xu Yansheng returned to the room, Bai Yafang quietly returned to the room. Wen Yan asked curiously: "What did you do? Why did you come back so long?"
Bai Yafang muttered a few perfunctory words, got on the kang and got into bed, her brain kept running. Although the two people didn't say anything provocative, they met secretly at night. It can already explain some problems.
No wonder you always look down on her. It turns out that these two have been secretly dating each other for a long time. If you said you were interested in each other, you should have made it clear. Why do you still pretend to be single and let others have other thoughts?
Of course, even if she knew that these two people were together, she would not give up!
Who told Xu Yansheng to have a good family background?
