"Of course. You don't know how miserable I was before. I feel like I have been abandoned by the whole world."
He was still carrying branches around the abandoned old house.
If someone looked into this dilapidated courtyard from the direction of the railway tracks, they would see a young man dressed in simple clothes, even some rags, bending down to pick up a very thick stick on the barren and uninhabited land. Da Chaihuo was very happy.
“This can make a hot pot meal!
Lamb stew will do.
Light the fire first. "
"This wood stove of yours is absolutely miserable. It's all falling apart. Look, how come you're using it like this?!"
The female voice was speechless.
"I'll reassemble it and I can burn it again today. I'm not willing to throw it away. Although this stove is broken, it's not big and it's very convenient for me to carry around."
"I mean, it's so bad. Aren't you afraid that if you cook the hotpot until it's half-burned, it will suddenly fall apart?"
She reminded kindly with some impatience.
Shen Jie felt in his heart that she was particularly flirting with him today.
But that’s okay, he also wants to find someone to talk to:
"There's nothing I can do about it. I'm hungry now. Even if the hotpot overturns, I will definitely pick it up from the dirt floor, wash it and continue to cook it.
Now I don't have anything to pay attention to. It is my biggest wish to have a full meal every time to make myself strong. And there is mutton today! "
After he finished saying this, he was still daydreaming about the chewy mutton and the deliciousness of the soup, but he found that she ignored him for a while, so he wondered whether what he said was wrong, or that he was once again because of I'm not very good at chatting, so I made other girls ignore me:
“I’ll go to town later to see if there’s anything for sale, and I’ll buy a new one if it’s suitable.
The weather is a bit cold. I have to get the fire up quickly. "
This time he squatted on the ground and stopped to light up the fire. A gust of wind blew and he was so cold that he couldn't bear it and shivered.
It was also caused by hunger, as there was no energy in the body to resist the cold.
"Your chopping board is also very broken! I found that you don't have any complete clothes on your body. Why are you so poor?!"
She obviously couldn't stand this.
"This is what I keep to chop the mutton. The ground is uneven, so it's easy to chop the plate into pieces."
The mutton had a lot of bones and was not easy to cut. With this force, the board split into two pieces and several pieces of mutton fell to the ground.
“It’s a bit gray here and it’s hard to cut.
I didn't eat hot pot today, so I stewed it directly. I didn't have the energy to thin it.
I still prefer to eat this stewed directly, which is more nutritious.
My hands are frozen.
If it’s enough, get another piece. Save this big piece for next time. "
He originally wanted to clean it up and use it again, but this cutting board had been completely scrapped and was broken into five pieces. He wanted to buy a bamboo cutting board, but this one couldn't be used.
“I’ll eat this much mutton today, now I’ll stew it and eat it.
This wood stove is broken. Need to buy a new one. It can't be held firmly.
It's completely broken. "
"Let him blanch out the blood foam first.
All the water fell down.
If this pot of water is poured on the ground, the mutton will not be eaten today. "
He began to talk to himself for a while, no matter whether anyone was listening or not, if he talked often, he would not lose his language ability.
"Didn't you say before that you would eat it even if it fell on the ground? There is so much ashes on the ground. I didn't believe you then."
"I must have something to eat! I have been hungry all day, and now I have no energy at all."
"Hey! And I don't have any money either."
“If a bad guy comes here now, I don’t even have the strength to resist, but there’s probably no one in this place.
Oops, finally caught.
It is enough to light this big firewood. "
The wind blowing from various directions in the yard blew violently, and the bundle of burning dry grass in his hand flew around.
"Wow, did you realize how beautiful this fire is?"
He suddenly thought of something, could she see it? He felt dizzy and a little unreal. He was obviously too hungry and even his consciousness was a little hazy.
"Just gathering firewood,
Made my clothes dirty.
This wood stove is useless. "
"You can build an earthen stove. I happen to have these bricks." Seeing Shen Jie's sad face, she felt that this man might be really hungry and stupid. He was squatting next to the broken stove to make a fire, and he didn't even think about it. Went to cook.
"Okay, let's take a ride." Shen Jie took a deep breath. He felt so tired that he wanted to eat quickly and then have a good sleep.
I don’t want to worry about anything anymore.
The broken stove can be used as two sides, and a few big rocks can be found to form a circle, which is okay.
If the wind is strong, the fire can burn even brighter.
"The water has boiled, let's blanch out the blood foam.
This bloody water is almost done.
Now add this ginger, you must add more red pepper, and onions and garlic. I hope you can’t miss it. It will be delicious when cooked.
Add the salt later.
Don’t use too much ginger.
Wow, it feels really comfortable when the fire rises. I feel like the water is not boiling enough. "
"Put the lid on the pot to make it simmer faster." She seemed to be right next to her, reminding her again.
“I went and almost fell down, I was scared to death!
I almost had to drink the northwest wind tonight!
It's not easy.
Too careless,
I just came across this place, oops, I almost fell over again. "
"Be careful about this, cover it with the pot lid."
"Okay, thank you for reminding me. I forgot to buy tissues. I don't know if I will have enough today.
Oops, these hands are all covered in oil. "
"While the meal is not ready yet,
It's just the right time to set up a tent. "
I feel that this water is not enough. I still have a small bottle of water. If it is not enough, pour out the bottle of mineral water.
You see the water can't be poured out, it's frozen.
I can only cut off the mouth of the bottle. I'll go. There's no water. What should I do?
Is this ice okay?
There should be enough water now, if not there is nothing you can do. I'm out of water too.
Just simmer it over low heat. In the event of a fire, the water will boil easily.
I'm going to braise the mutton today. Anyway, the weather here is a bit cold and we have some firewood.
Boil down the water. By then, the mutton will melt in your mouth.
It’s been a while since I’ve had mutton that melts in my mouth. I prefer something a little chewier.
The meat is so chewy to eat in such a big bite.
It's just that you can't chew it when you eat it.
To stew this mutton, you need to simmer it slowly over low heat.
It tastes different when stewed over high heat.
Simmer for three hours.
Nothing happened anyway. "
