Chapter 55 On the Distribution of Leftovers
A meal is like a war. Meng Ge, www.biquge.info pen "Fun" Pavilion, looked at the messy courtyard and thought that the loss was not done at his own home.
Otherwise, Meng Ge will definitely scold his mother.
Fortunately, those older children took their things home and were educated by the elders of the family, and a few of them were very embarrassed to come over to help, so that the chaotic yard was cleaned up.
The yard was cleaned up, and the tables and chairs were returned. The rest is the dishes of each family.
Meng Ge looked at several large pots of dishes and felt really tired. The job of cleaning dishes, whether in the past life or in this life, is the thing that Meng Ge likes the most.
Especially when it's getting cooler. Maybe this meal was too oily and watery, and those dishes were greasy.
Meng Ge wailed a few times, and finally sat down in front of the basin helplessly, grabbed a small basket of grass and wood ashes that had been prepared on the side, and planned to wash the plate first.
However, the last bit of the dinner was not done yet, and Meng Ge's action of brushing the dishes had not yet started, so he was stopped.
"Oh, I said Brother Yu, the big guys are looking for you, why are you hiding here and brushing the dishes? Come into the house, the job of brushing the dishes is not what you gentlemen should do. Tang Xiaomei walked out of the house with a smile on her face, and shouted as soon as she saw Meng Ge.
Meng Ge looked at Tang Xiaomei inexplicably and asked, "Little sister, this table has been withdrawn, what else is going on?"
"Hey, you said you were young, but you were so young, you didn't even know such a thing. Come inside, the people inside are waiting for you to arrange the leftovers. Tang Xiaomei glanced at Meng Ge and said.
was glanced at by Tang Xiaomei so meaningfully, Meng Ge suddenly felt that he was not good. She quickly stood up, didn't bother to wash the firewood ashes on her hands, and ran straight into the house.
Tang Xiaomei shouted softly behind Meng Ge: "Little brother, remember to leave a bowl of good dishes for my sister." ”
Meng Getou didn't dare to reply: "Hey, I must leave the best dishes for my little sister." ”
Tang Xiaomei got Meng Ge's assurance, so she sat down with satisfaction and took over Meng Ge's previous work of brushing dishes.
"Fortunately, I kept some good things with my cousin before, otherwise, I really wouldn't be able to share any good things now. The more Tang Xiaomei thought about it, the more she muttered to herself proudly.
Meng Ge had just stepped into the door of the hall and saw the elders gathered around several large barrels, and when he saw her, he hurriedly beckoned her over.
"Hey, little nephew, you're finally back. Come and take a look, what should we do with these leftovers?" As soon as Liang Qinglong saw Meng Ge, he walked over, pulled her and walked towards those buckets and basins.
Meng Ge leaned over and looked into the buckets and pots, and saw that they were all scraps and cold burns, so he had a little headache.
"Uncles, the little nephew really doesn't know what to do with this. I don't know, what are the usual rules in this village?" Meng Ge humbly asked.
Tang Lizheng glanced at the uncles and brothers who were squeezing their eyes at him, and said, "Usually, these leftovers are for those villagers to fill a bowl of each person and go back, and the rest will be kept by the master's family." ”
Meng Ge took a closer look at the leftovers and saw that there were really some good things in them that he had never touched.
Among them, there is a large plate of egg dumplings, which are just cut and never cooked. There is also a large pot of sauerkraut meat bones.
In addition to these, there is also half a basin of fried fish pieces left, and three sauerkraut stewed fish.
The fish pieces are fried by large herring caught in the river. Braised fish, it's that catfish.
Meng Ge felt that she should keep some of these things. After all, the two younger brothers in the family did not come to the table today, and there was no food delivered here.
"Uncles, can I pick up some vegetables and take them back to the two younger brothers to eat?" Meng Ge thought that the two younger brothers in the family were hungry.
"Hello, hurry up and pick up some food and send it back. I said, I forgot what I forgot today, it turns out that my two younger brothers didn't come down. Yu Fei, you don't remind the big guy. "Liang Qinglong, as the commander-in-chief of this entry dinner, of course has to come forward to call the shots at this time.
"That's right, Yu Fei, why don't you say it. We thought you would have brought food to your family. The people on the side also blamed Meng Ge, and they were all a little sneering.
"It's okay, they can eat later. Didn't I forget it? Then I'm welcome, decorate the dishes and leave them first. As he spoke, Meng Ge picked up the empty plate on the table and picked up the dish.
Sauerkraut stewed fish, Meng Ge shoveled a whole one. The fish pieces were fried in flavored egg flour, and Meng Ge also picked up a small half bowl, about ten pieces. As for the egg dumplings, Meng Ge directly picked up half of them.
The rest was the sauerkraut stewed pork bones, and Meng Ge felt that it was inconvenient to bring those soup dishes up the mountain, so he didn't plan to ask for them.
"I'll just take these, those soups and dishes, it's inconvenient to serve them up the mountain, so everyone will share them. I don't know what everyone is rare, so let's do it ourselves. Meng Ge picked a talent and said.
Those people muttered a little in their hearts after seeing the good dishes that Meng Ge had picked. But it's not good to say it to your face. After all, no one stipulates that the main family can't just take the good ones.
Watching the big guy divide the leftovers in several large buckets one after another, Meng Ge thought that this was the end of the matter. But no.
"Little nephew Yu Fei, look at the remaining egg dumplings and fish pieces, how should you divide them?" asked Uncle Yu
Everyone divided the leftovers, and the rest of the dishes that no one had touched before, they saw too little, and they didn't know how to do it for a while.
Meng Ge rolled his eyes and said, "Those egg dumplings, let's take them to the two lonely old people in the village, and then load a bowl of meat and bones." As for the fish pieces, they were also distributed to those who were single with little babies. The remaining two stewed fish, one for Uncle Lizheng, and one for the patriarch's grandfather. After all, I've troubled Uncle Li Zheng a lot. I don't know if this arrangement can be done?" Meng Gehan asked with a smile and scratching his head.
Meng Ge thought so thoughtfully, who could say no? Even they didn't expect those lonely old people, and those who had lost their partners and worked hard to feed their children.
"Hey, just do what Yu Fei arranged. The patriarch sighed and said earnestly, "It's a shame that Yu Fei remembers this matter, otherwise we will mess up this banquet." Okay, the big guys are all gone. ”
I have eaten what I should eat, and I have taken what I should have taken. The big guy is reluctant to give up those egg dumplings or something, and he is embarrassed to stare at it anymore.
Meng Ge and Liang Qinglong were at the door, taking out the return gift that had been prepared a long time ago, and giving one to the family.
finally sent everyone away, and Meng Ge felt relieved. However, there are still some things waiting for her to do.
"Little Brother Yu Fei, there is still some meat and water left over from that pig, I don't know what you want to do with it?"
This time, Meng Ge made a bloody investment. From oil, salt, sauce and vinegar alone, as well as vegetables, meat, rice, etc., they are all fully prepared, so there are many young and old left.
