"Jeba, are the other dishes finished?" Liu Mang scooped the snow-white mountain mushroom soup in the pot into the bowl with a large soup spoon, and Jeba next to him immediately picked up a pot of green green onions and sprinkled them in each bowl in turn.

"It's over. Jeba nodded.

"Okay, you help deliver the soup, and then call the monk over for dinner. ”

"Okay!" Jeba helped the people in the back kitchen serve the dishes, watching others eat and was already hungry, and when he heard Liu Mang's words, he immediately went out with the soup on the tray.

"Uncle Liu, let's clean up and set the table for dinner. ”

"Okay. Liu Yongguo withdrew the firewood from the stove, poured a few basins of cold water, and began to help set the table.

Today, there are more than ten people in the kitchen who helped with Liu Mang, so they simply set up two tables in the backyard and brought the remaining dishes in the kitchen to the table.

"Brother Mang, it's finally time to eat!" After a while, Wu Jing ran in and sat down at the table.

"Let's all come and sit down. Liu Mang greeted.

"Hurry up! I'm already hungry!" Wu Jing held a large bowl full of spiky white rice: "I'll drink later, and get something to cushion the bottom first." ”

"Hmmm! delicious!" A large piece of buckle meat was stuffed into his mouth, and while the greasy touch was still in his mouth, Wu Jing immediately took a big mouthful of white rice and praised it again and again.

The meat is fat but not greasy, and after a long time of steaming, it perfectly absorbs the fragrance of dried cowpeas, and chews it with rice, which is really fragrant.

"Master Liu, Master Wujing, I'm sorry for you today. As soon as Liu Mang and the others sat down to eat, Wang Jianjun led a woman in red to toast.

"Congratulations! Congratulations!" Liu Mang hurriedly stood up and picked up his wine glass.

"Many of the plates on the table today are empty, Master Liu, your craftsmanship is too good!. ”

"It's my job. Liu Mang picked up the cup and drank it all.

After Wang Jianguo and his newlywed wife left, Wu Jing picked up a piece of braised fish and took a bite.

"Brother Mang, this fish is really good!"

The fish is spicy and fragrant, and the crispy skin that has been fried in advance on the outside is simmered in bone broth and then dried over high heat, and the flavor of condiments such as bean paste and pickled pepper will have penetrated into it. One bite with a little tenacity, as if the fish was naturally coated with a layer of skin.

"If it's delicious, you eat more. Liu Mang smiled and took a chicken leg and sent it to Jeba's bowl.

Comrade Jeba grabbed it directly with his hands and gnawed it down.

After slaughtering, Liu Mang stuffed red dates, wolfberries, longan, Huaishan, pepper and other ingredients into the abdominal cavity of the chicken, then poured fresh chicken soup, put it in a large soup basin, sealed the mouth of the basin with wet thick rice paper, and steamed it in a steamer for more than ten hours.

In these more than ten hours, the flavor of the ingredients has completely penetrated into the chicken, and the chicken is soft and rotten from the bones, and the soup is delicious, and a large piece can be torn off with a light pinch of chopsticks.

"It's so full!Jeba, have you eaten enough?" asked after nearly an hour of eating, Wu Jing covered her stomach and Meimei burped.

"Right now! right now!" Jebba clutched an elbow and gnawed on a mouthful.

Today's elbow Liu Mang first boiled a dish with water, then put it in the soup pot and boiled thoroughly, and took it out to remove the elbow bone. Then add green onions, ginger, Shao wine, dark soy sauce, star anise and other condiments, and simmer in a casserole over low heat until rotten.

In addition to being fat but not greasy, poopy but not rotten, the collagen that comes with the elbow makes people feel sticky every time they take a bite.

After eating, Wang Dazhui sent Liu Mang and the three of them to the mountain road.

"Brother Mang, let's go wild boar hunting again tomorrow. Wu Jing lifted the pocket on her back and said.

This bag contained snacks such as candy, peanuts, and melon seeds, as well as some whole chickens and ducks left over from the banquet, all of which were paid by Wang Dazhu.

"Are you still going?" Liu Mang's eyes glared: "You don't think the trouble is big enough?"

"Hey, I was careless last time, this time I will definitely hunt a big boar for you to see. Wu Jing looked angry, obviously a little unconvinced.

"Jeba, what about you?"

"I don't care. ”

"Okay, then let's prepare tomorrow and try again. Seeing that the two insisted, Liu Mang had no choice but to agree.

Early the next morning......

"Brother Mang, even if we don't hunt wild boars this time, we have to get two hares and pheasants to taste. Wu Jing kicked the bamboo pole and rope under her feet.

"Master, are you going to make a trap?" Jeba squatted down, "I'm good at this." ”

After speaking, Jeba inserted one of the bamboo poles into the mud ground at both ends, bent it into a bow shape, and then tied the other bamboo pole to a rope at one end, made a rope sleeve and bent it backwards on the ground, and put it on top of the other bamboo pole.

"Look, it's easy. Jeba then snapped off a branch from a nearby elm tree and carefully placed it under a rope sheath to connect the two curved bamboo poles.

"Hey, I didn't expect you to do this?" Wu Jing said in surprise.

"Of course, I learned to survive in the wild. Jeba stretched out his thick fingers and touched the noose, and the mechanism instantly struck, and the bamboo pole on top bounced up, pulling the noose, and binding his fingers firmly.

"But it's okay to trap pheasants this way, but it's useless to trap rabbits. Wu Jing pouted: "Rabbits have teeth, once they are lassoed, they can immediately bite off the rope and run away." ”

"Alright, let's go. I can say okay, today is the last time, forget it if you can't hunt. Liu Mang said.

The three of them set out again, this time they were clever enough to put the dogs on a leash and wait until they saw the boar and put it on to kill them.

"Brother Mang, if you are so conservative, it is impossible to hunt wild boars. Wu Jing held the dog leash and said a little deflated.

The wild boars in the mountains are not stupid, if they don't let the dogs drive them away, they will only hide quietly when they meet people, how can they be caught?

"Where is there no place where there are few people? There are no villagers herding sheep?" Liu Mang thought about it, if he only held the dog by his side, it would indeed be too difficult to understand quietly, so he asked.

"Then we have to go to the depths of Shaogong Mountain, do you remember the place where we took monkey wine last time?"

"Of course I do. "The last time Liu Mang and Wuyan took monkey wine, it can be described as dangerous, and they were almost left there by the monkeys.

"Where, where?" As soon as he heard Liu Mangwujing talk about monkey wine, Comrade Jeba was immediately excited: "Mang, let's go there and see how the monkey makes wine." ”

"Don't go!" Liu Mang decisively refused: "It's a deep mountain, and we haven't prepared much this time, it's too dangerous." ”

"In this way, I will take you to a place where you can not only hunt wild boars, but if you are lucky, you can catch muntjac. Wu Jing looked mysterious.

"Hmm...... All right. ”
