"Shuning is here too, when did he come? We don't know. Zhong Ziguo walked over to the ancient party and smiled when he saw Li Shuning.

Li Shuning smiled back, "As soon as I arrived, I met the master and the fourth grandfather, and they came back together; ”

Li Shenzhou secretly praised, this kid's brain is very fast, and his ability to deal with it is also good, "Comrade Zhong Ziguo, Comrade Gu Xiangdang, do you have time to help deal with these wild meats?"

"Yes, sister-in-law. Gu Xiangdang stepped forward and looked at the game, his eyes shining.

Li Shuzhi followed, stepped forward and glanced at Shuzhi idly, and the two looked at each other and smiled.

"Then please boil the water first, build a table with a stool and come out to shave the pig's hair. Li Shenzhou said with a smile.

"Okay, sister-in-law, let's go. ”

The two turned and ran into the stove.

Li Shenyuan came out of the room and directly stepped forward to hug him, "Why have you been there for so long?"

"Waited a while. Li Shenzhou didn't say much, and pointed to the game on the ground, "I don't know if there is enough salt at home." ”

"Want to pickle wild boar?" Li Shenyuan looked at her with a smile.

Li Shenzhou bowed his head, "Well, this wild boar is not small, pickled out, Ming'er asked Shuning and Shuzhi to take some away." ”

"There should be enough salt at home, and every time I go shopping, I will bring some salt back, and although the amount is not much, it can add up to a lot. Li Shenyuan took her hand and walked towards the stove room.

Old Man Li, Li Shuzhi and Li Shuning were left in the courtyard.

Li Shuning looked up at the old man, "Fourth Grandfather, they all have something to do, what are I doing with Brother Shuzhi?"

"Go move the stool. Old Man Li pointed to the hall, Li Shuning understood, and Li Shuzhi smiled and ran to the hall to move a few stools.

Old Man Li helped build the platform, came over and sat down on a stool, and patted the position next to him, "You also come and sit down and rest for a while, you should take a good rest after dragging the wild boar for such a long way." ”

"Thank you, Fourth Grandpa, I'm not tired, what is this little road, no matter how far I go, I can do it. Li Shuning shook his head.

Old man Li smiled with a smile on his face, nodded, hung his legs with his hands, and did not force it; Li Shuning and Li Shuzhi were both transferred by the little granddaughter, and this child is still the little apprentice of the little granddaughter, and he wants to be more capable than Shuzhi, if not, he will not have the idea of letting them go back together.

The person who can make the little granddaughter take a fancy is definitely not incompetent.

Li Shuning saw this, squatted down, and helped the old man beat his legs together, "Fourth grandfather, I'll beat your legs; why did you go up the mountain with your master? How dangerous it is on the mountain! Although there is a master to take care of you, after all, you are old, and climbing the mountain is very tiring. ”

"Fourth Grandpa, I'll help you press your legs. Li Shuzhi also squatted down.

"Two stinky boys. Old Man Li's face sank, "The old man is very tough, go and go, I don't want you to beat your legs." "Move your legs, move away.

Li Shuning was stunned for a moment, then licked his face and smiled: "Fourth Grandpa, don't be angry, I'm just talking; ”

Li Shuzhi pursed his lips and smiled, squatting beside the old man and continuing to beat his legs.

"Go, go, go. Old Man Li glanced at him with disgust, he is old, he still doesn't want to serve old age, he will live for another twenty years, what does it look like to watch Hum grow up. Does she look like a little granddaughter, or does she look like a grandson-in-law?

Some children look like their fathers when they are young, but when they grow up, they look like their mothers, while others look like their mothers when they are young and grow up like their fathers.

There are also children who, when they grow up, grow up with the appearance of their parents and gather the advantages of their parents.

He really wants to see what his little great-grandson will look like when he grows up, and he also wants to see Hum grow up when he grows up.

"Fourth Grandpa, I can't say it!" Li Shuning shut up and pressed his leg intently.

Old Man Li looked down at him, a light smile floated to the corner of his mouth, Shu Ning pressed the calf, he pressed the big leg, after a while, he felt that the legs and feet were not so weak, and then stopped, "Okay, you should also rest! Shu Ning I was also tired." ”

"I'll give you another button. Li Shuning shook his head, and the movements of his hands did not stop.

Old Man Li removed his legs, "Okay, you guys rest, I'll have you to fight or something in a while; my leg is much better; Shu Ning is right, when people are old, they have to spare their lives." ”

"Fourth Grandpa, I didn't mean that. Li Shuning felt that it was not a good word, what he said before did not mean to let the old man spare his life...... It's not right, it's right to spare his life, but that's not what he meant.

Old Man Li glanced at him with a smile, and smiled helplessly, "I know what you mean, go ahead!"

Li Shuning breathed a sigh of relief, "Then Brother Shuzhi and I will go to the stove room to see if there is anyone who needs help, Fourth Grandpa, you can go back to the room and lie down for a while! By the way, I still have the little Peiyuan paste given by the master here, you may be better if you eat a little." ”

"No, I have it. Old Man Li waved his hand, got up, and dragged into the room with a somewhat weak step.

Li Shuning breathed a sigh of relief, he said what he said just now, but what about Xiao Peiyuan's paste in the storage ring, do you want to take it from the storage ring? He didn't bring his luggage back, and if he took it out abruptly, it would definitely be exposed.

Li Shuning didn't know that the old man already had some understanding of their details, and at this time, he still remembered the master's advice.

Li Shuzhi took Li Shuning's legs and walked into the stove room, and saw that it was busy inside; those who burned the fire, those who took the basin took the pot, those who took the jar took the jar, those who took the salt took the salt, the one who took the wine took the wine, and some people took the peppercorns.

These are used to marinate the cured meat, and the cured meat that is eaten at home is basically made in this way; after the marinade, it is smoked once with a pine and cypress tree, and then hung on the pole on the stove, and it can be eaten after ten days and half a month. The taste is very fragrant, very chewy, and the aftertaste is endless when you eat it.

"Master, uncle, what can I do?" the two walked up to Li Shenzhou's side.

"Cousin, cousin, I'm here to help. Li Shuzhi took the pepper in Li Shenyuan's hand.

Li Shenzhou handed the salt in his hand to Shu Ning, "If you have nothing to do, just pair the salt and liquor, pay attention to the proportion." ”

"Okay. Li Shuning took the salt, took the wine from Gu Xiangdang's hand, and went to the place where the basin was placed; took a basin out, poured some salt and liquor into it, and stirred it evenly.

The two worked together and quickly prepared a small pot of things to be used for curing meat.

Zhong Ziguo boiled hot water, and brought buckets to the yard; with Li Shuning's help, Gu Xiangdang also gave him the work in hand, and went out to help Zhong Ziguo shave the pig's hair together. This project is a bit big, and you have to burn it before you can shave it off. It may have been quicker to build a cauldron and shave the fur while boiling water, but when buckets of water were brought out and poured on the boar, it was all gone, and it took many times to scald the whole pig.

Li Shenzhou pulled Li Shenyuan out to help, or the pheasants and hares were put first, and the two of them had to pluck and deal with them when they died.

The old man turned on the light under the eaves, and the courtyard was dim and barely able to see at night.
