Li Laifu walked towards the mountain. In the past, when he went up the mountain, he could still hear the singing of birds and the fragrance of flowers. But now the birds were all frightened by him. It is estimated that this forest has become a forbidden land for birds.
It's better to have some bird chirping. The woods become more lush and quiet as we go up the mountain...
He checked four traps in a row but all came up empty. The fifth one shocked him. There was a big snake wrapped around a wild boar. Oh my god!
Li Laifu took two steps back and looked at the snake carefully. This snake was five or six meters long and weighed more than 20 kilograms? Looking at the lines, I knew it was a big python and it was not poisonous. I took a big tree stick. Now that the pig was struggling and the snake was being tied up, I had no time to pay attention to him. I put the pig and snake into the space. Looking at the big snake, I guess Even if it is given to a group of old people in the village, they will not eat it, and they will make a fuss. If not, it will become a legend.
Just like later generations watching folk tales, there are all kinds of dragons descending, snake spirits, and fox fairies repaying kindness. In short, don't underestimate those rumors.
He doesn't want to be regarded as the protagonist in the legend, walking to the edge of the cliff and muttering that a fall of more than ten meters may not necessarily kill you. How about whether you survive or not?
He released a big snake from space and threw it directly to the bottom of the cliff. But these more than 20 kilograms of meat... made him feel a little distressed. If he took it back to the village and ate it if there was a bold person, if anyone stumbled upon it, the old man would talk nonsense about how he couldn't handle it. Well, it became feudal superstition.
Seeing that the piglet in the space was only about 20 kilograms, I went to the sixth trap, but there was nothing to destroy all the traps. Although few people came up, what if it happened? These days, any bump on the arm or leg may turn into a serious illness. This is an era when medical treatment is scarce.
The main thing to prevent is those stupid young people. The real villagers live at the foot of the mountain. Instead, they have a sense of awe for the mountains. Or what will happen in future generations? Those who got lost and died in the mountains and those who are waiting for rescue are all travel friends. Look at which villager Go deeper into the mountains?
…
At the same time, Old Man Li took Li Chongwen and walked up the mountain. "Dad, I saw your pile of firewood. It will burn until next year. Why are you going up the mountain?" Li Chongwen asked.
Old Man Li walked to the lower mountain pass and said, "Can the firewood burn until next year? That's your credit!"
Li Chongwen said with a playful smile: "That is my brother's contribution, just as much as mine."
snort!
Don't look at Li Chongwen being serious in front of Li Laifu and Jiang Tao Jiang Yuan. No matter how old he is, as long as his parents are around, he is still a child.
Old Man Li glared at him and sat on the stone with a sack.
After the two men were smoking for a while, Li Laifu tied the pig's mouth with a cane and led the pig down the mountain.
Old Man Li immediately stood up, holding the sack and said triumphantly: "Do you know what I came to the mountain for? Of course it is to welcome my grandson."
"Grandpa, Dad, why are you here?" Li Laifu asked. The pig was not big, and he didn't even bother to pull it.
"Of course I'm here to welcome my grandson," Old Man Li said, but his eyes looked up and down Li Laifu's body to see if his grandson was injured? Make sure it's okay.
Old Man Li looked like he was changing his face in a Sichuan opera, and said to Li Chongwen who was stunned: "Why are you standing there stupidly? Why don't you put the pig in a sack quickly?"
Li Laifu wanted to help, but Old Man Li pulled him up and said, "Just leave him alone. Is your grandson tired?"
Li Chongwen didn't want to scold him, he just glared at Li Laifu and put the pig in the sack. If his father hadn't been there, he would have let Li Laifu carry it with a wave of his big hand. At this time, he didn't dare to open his mouth. I was scolded and carried the sack obediently.
The old man led his grandson in front, and Li Chongwen followed behind him carrying a sack. When he walked out of the woods, under the sunlight, it was like a picture of three generations of grandparents walking.
After entering the yard, Li Laifu passed through grandma's security check again. The old lady didn't even look at the son carrying the sack.
Zhao Fang couldn't help laughing as she watched the two elders surrounding Li Laifu, with only Li Chongwen carrying the sack.
"Smile...you're laughing your ass off! You prodigal bitches, why don't you come over and help?"
Zhao Fang took the sack and said with a smile: "Why are you so angry with me? If you have the ability, why don't you curse at me?"
"Brother, sister-in-law," Li Chongwu called from outside?
"Second brother, why did you come here?" Li Chongwen took out the cigarette and asked, passing it over.
Li Chongwu took the cigarette and said with a smile: "Don't I want to give you a chance to show off? The key is that your parents scold you. I'm afraid I will laugh out loud."
Li Chongwen rolled his eyes, this younger brother was still so talkative.
Zhao Fang put the sack on the ground and asked, "Chongwu, why didn't Xiaocui come over?"
Li Chongwu replied: "Sister-in-law, my wife has gone up the mountain to hunt pigweed. She will probably have to wait a while to come back."
Li Chongwen didn't want his brother to talk nonsense, so he arranged directly: "Second brother, kill the pig."
When I heard this tone, I felt like there was no shortage of brother Xiong when I was a child.
The two brothers and Zhao Fang were killing pigs, removing hair, and bleeding them. They were very busy. Li Laifu was sitting on a recliner holding the little girl. The old lady was sitting on a small bench looking at her grandchildren. Old man Li was drinking tea and also I don't care about my two sons, but my grandchildren are much better than those two.
The little dragons and tigers have finished fetching water, and the second aunt has also finished hunting pig grass, especially the little dragons and the little tigers are running up the mountain like rabbits. During this time, they have good food and are energetic. Unlike when they first met Li Laifu, they were all at the door. If you don't dare to move, you will call big brother when you enter the hospital.
The two boys were playing with Li Xiaohong in the courtyard. The second aunt and Zhao Fang got together and kept praising Li Laifu. The old lady never had the ability to resist praising her grandson and joined in on her own.
A pig weighing more than 20 kilograms is decapitated, and only about ten kilograms are left after removing the internal organs. Li Laifu has to do cooking. People in this era can cook meat in a dish, and the cooking is still seven or eight years old. As for cooking, When the pork is washed in water, it will be full of oil. Don't even think about it, they won't let go of any oil or water.
The most difficult thing for farmers in this era is that they have nothing to eat even though they are planting on the ground. They can still buy vegetables with vegetable stamps in the city. What is even more unethical is that to buy seeds, you need a certificate from the village commune. Individuals are not allowed to buy them, otherwise With the diligence of the people in this era, reclaiming wasteland to grow some food would not necessarily lead to such hunger.
As for private land, stop talking nonsense. You are not allowed to cook your own food, but you are also allowed to cook and grow your own vegetables.
Li Laifu braised a pot of pork, steamed two large baskets of steamed buns, filled half of the pots for the old man and lady, and put the rest on the table.
Zhao Fang and her second aunt stood in the kitchen, watching Li Laifu cooking meat. Zhao Fang also understood why Li Laifu liked to come to his grandfather's house. The old man and the old lady really didn't care about him.
"Dad, it's a rare time for eldest brother to come back. Why don't you take out the bottle of Moutai and drink it?" Li Chongwu asked.
"What? Our dad still has Moutai?" Li Chongwen asked in surprise.
Old Man Li glared at him and said, "Don't think about my bottle of wine. I'll drink it when my grandson gets married."
