Maybe he didn't have the conditions to handle it properly. The smell of venison was very strong when it came out of the pot, stronger than that of pork. Li Ping'an just smelled the smell and frowned with resistance on his face.
Even Xiao Ruyi, a child who can be said to be a foodie, frowned and pinched her nose after taking a sip, not daring to smell it again.
It wasn't until it cooled down that the fishy smell faded a little. Li Ping'an endured a slight feeling of nausea, took a piece and put it in his mouth. What can I say, uh, it's very strong for a high EQ, but it's very bad for a low EQ. It clogs the teeth and has no taste.
However, Li Ping'an felt that there must be a problem with their processing methods. It must be reasonable for venison to be favored by wealthy aristocrats and royal family members. They only add water to stew and add nothing. To be honest, it is a bit of a waste to the deer. Meat.
However, the environment and conditions are here. It’s good to have something to eat. What else can you ask for?
But Li Erlin, Chen Dajuan and Fugui Jixiang didn't have as many ideas as Li Ping'an. They put one piece into their mouths one after another. Xinglong and Ruyi each held a piece in their hands and ate it in small bites.
Before he was full, Jixiang put down his bowl and chopsticks, rubbed his cheeks, and said with a grimace, "My mouth is so tired!"
Chen Dajuan glanced over and said, "Don't eat if you feel tired."
"No, I want to eat porridge. Mother, please bring me some porridge." Jixiang handed the bowl to Chen Dajuan. She was in a good year, and her eldest brother was trying every means to make money while she was still in her mother's womb. He was less than two years old. She started making tofu at home. Not only did she never go hungry, but she could occasionally eat meat. Meat was not that attractive to her.
While pretending to be porridge, Chen Dajuan scolded her in a low voice: "You girl really doesn't know how to enjoy happiness. You have meat to eat but you are too tired to eat it. You have to eat porridge."
Ji Xiang smiled flatteringly, seeing this, Chen Dajuan had no choice but to hold back her complaints and wait. After a while, you will regret it if you don't have anything to eat.
I also wanted to say something about how Li Ping'an raised the little ones so delicately, but when I saw Li Ping'an, my heart softened again and was a little sour. This child has done too many things for the family since he was young, and now he is even more busy and exhausted, so what reason does she have to complain about him.
After watching them finish eating, Zhang Yu came over with a small bamboo stick in his mouth, "Er Lin, take a rest and go get some water."
There wasn't much water brought back yesterday. We also processed venison and pheasant in the morning, so there was no water in the bucket.
Li Erlin glanced at Zhang Yu's house and said, "If Dashan is okay, let's go together. We can get two more buckets of water. It's enough to have the eldest sister, Xiao Shan and Ping An watching over us."
"Da Shan will definitely go. His mother asked him to fetch water for his uncle's house." Zhang Yu said.
Li Dalin was lame and it was inconvenient to enter the mountain. Li Dong was one year younger than Li Ping'an, so he didn't feel confident asking him to follow him. Li Dong's mother could do it, but she was definitely not as strong as Zhang Dashan, and Zhang Dashan had some skills. , I also went hunting in the mountains. It was more worry-free to let him go than to let Li Dong's mother go.
The situation of Li Dalin's family is indeed a little worse, but after all, they are a family, and they will definitely help if they can.
Li Ping'an suddenly thought of a question, "Dad, uncle, you go back quickly and take time to explore the location of Qingshui Village and see where they get water. If they drink from the flood water at the foot of the mountain, what's the problem? It may be serious, there may be an epidemic.”
Zhang Yu and Li Erlin instantly realized the seriousness of the matter. They both knew that unclean water should not be drunk, but if they really couldn't find a water source, they had to drink even dirty water in order to survive.
The fact that people from Qingshui Village met people from Xiaochen Village this morning means that the two sides are not too far apart. If someone in Qingshui Village drank unclean water and contracted the disease, it is possible that they could be infected. .
"Don't wait for us to come back. I'm going to tell the village chief. There are still many young and strong people in the village after we leave. Let the village chief find a few smart people to take a look."
Li Erlin was about to walk away as he spoke, but was stopped by Li Ping'an again, "Dad, just to be on the safe side, tell them not to get too close and just observe from a distance. It's best to cover your mouth and nose with a cloth."
Li Erlin nodded, "Is there anything else I should pay attention to?"
Li Ping'an always likes to run to the city, chatting with businessmen who come and go to get information. He is also familiar with the doctors in the drug stores in the city, and it is not surprising that he knows more than they, the mud-legged ones who can only dig in the dirt.
Li Ping'an thought about it and said, "Be careful to prevent mosquito bites. Pick more mugwort to drive away mosquitoes. Don't eat spoiled food. I haven't thought of anything else for the time being."
Li Erlin hurried to Chen Song's house. Chen Song took this matter very seriously. After all, once an epidemic occurs, a large number of people will die, and maybe the entire Xiaochen Village will be wiped out.
Li Pingan was still uneasy and asked Chen Dajuan if there was any cloth at home. When she learned that there was half a piece, he asked her to take it out and make it into a face towel.
Although Chen Dajuan felt sorry for the cloth, Li Ping'an said it was serious and it was a matter of life, so she could only do it, but she was still a little reluctant when it came to cutting, "Is this really useful? Can it really prevent epidemics?"
"I don't know if it's useful or not, and I'm not sure if there will be an epidemic, but it's better than nothing." Li Ping'an told the truth. This kind of face towel, which has not undergone medical treatment and is made of coarse cloth, is definitely different from the mask in the previous life. It couldn't be compared, but he had no other choice, at least it was better than nothing.
There is a saying that he should do everything he can to obey fate. As for what will happen next, it depends on whether God will give him a way to survive.
Li Pingan felt that whether it was in the previous life or in this life, whether he could survive or not also depended on luck. If you are lucky, you will have no serious illnesses, disasters or accidents in your life, and you will be able to die a healthy life. He had bad luck in his previous life, so he doesn't know about it in this life. After all, he is still alive and it is not yet time to seal the coffin.
I hope God will be kind to them because he will be devoting a whole pig to him at the end of the year.
Li Ping'an looked at the sky in the distance, thought for a moment, and silently added in his mind, changing one pig into two.
The team that fetched water didn't come back as late as yesterday. They came back just as it started to get dark. It wasn't that they did nothing but fetch water. Zhang Yu led his people to dig two traps and used wild boar's water as bait. I'll know if there will be anything to gain when I go see it tomorrow.
People from each household who went to fetch water also carried baskets on their backs and picked some wild vegetables and unripe wild fruits along the way. Zhang Yu also caught two snakes and brought them back. The fattest one was as big as Xiao Ruyi's fist. .
Li Ping'an always kept a distance from this stuff and was not interested at all. However, Xiao Ruyi was both good at it and loved to watch it. She covered her eyes with her hands, occasionally spreading her fingers to take a look, and then she squeezed her fingers together and got into Ji Xiang's arms.
To be honest, Ji Xiang really wanted to hold Xiao Ruyi under him and beat him up.
At this time, Chen Song walked over with a gloomy look and called Li Erlin and Zhang Yu away. Li Pingan blinked and quickly followed.
