At seven o'clock in the afternoon, the sunset completely set on the other side of Biluo Snow Mountain, leaving only a red sky, while in the east, a waning moon quietly appeared, bringing a touch of coldness.
In Xiao Feng's opinion, the early morning and evening of Ginkgo Village are the most flavorful, and perhaps only during these periods, the entire Ginkgo Village, Mirror Lake and this sky will be integrated.
There is no nightlife in the small mountain village, and there is not much light pollution, and usually when it gets dark, the whole Ginkgo Village enters a silence. Even if the electricity is connected, the lives of the villagers will not change dramatically for a while, and everyone is still used to going to bed early.
However, tonight's Ginkgo Village is destined to be very lively, because Xiao Feng has decided to hold a grand bonfire party at Ginkgo Square to welcome guests from afar. As soon as this news came out, the young people in the village immediately cheered!
In the afternoon, Xiao Feng still took care of the lamb by himself, but fortunately, he usually saw a lot, and he was not ambiguous at all, quite neat. Later, whether it is hair removal, cleaning offal, pickling seasonings, etc., it is quite convenient to have the old lady beside you to guide you.
The ancients said: "The gentleman is far away from cooking!"
It's just that in Ginkgo Village, to be precise, in the Xiao family, most of the good cooks are men, from the old lady to Xiao Jinxu's generation, basically everyone has one or two unique skills. Now it is Xiao Feng's turn to be no exception, they have been studying by their elders since they were children, and they are not kitchen idiots under the influence of their ears.
And Xiao Qiang and Xiao Dazhi got five or six pheasants and hares from the woods smoothly, which will also be one of the main supporting roles of the bonfire. After the news was released, the young people in the village prepared fresh ingredients such as mushrooms, various seasonal vegetables, pork, beef, etc., which made the variety and amount of ingredients this evening soar.
In the end, Xiao Qiang also brought two large barrels of self-brewed bud wine from home, and everyone will probably not get drunk tonight!
If it were someone else who organized such a bonfire party, the parents might still feel sorry for these ingredients, but I heard that the organizer was Duan Lei, and the villagers had no objection at all.
You must know that since Xiao Feng returned to the village to invest in Jinghu Company, the changes in Ginkgo Village have been changing day by day, and the expected prospects in the future are gradually being favored by the villagers. In this case, Xiao Feng is equivalent to the God of Wealth in Ginkgo Village, he wants to hold a bonfire party for guests from afar, how can the villagers object?
In addition, the situation of these travelers was also relayed to the villagers through the mouths of Xiao Qiang and others, and in the future, they will expect these guests to help attract tourists, and the villagers naturally understand the reason that they are reluctant to let their children trap and not find wolves.
In this way, Xiao Feng, who originally just wanted to make a small fuss, appeared, and the scale of the bonfire party inadvertently expanded rapidly, and the venue was also moved from the old mansion to the larger Ginkgo Square.
After nightfall, Xiao Qiang began to command his few small and began to light a bonfire in the center of the square, and the blazing flames reflected everyone's excited faces. The firewood used for the bonfire is not ordinary wood, but the alpine pine brought back by the villagers in the pine forest at an altitude of more than 2ooo meters above sea level in Qingling Mountain, which is specially used to roast whole sheep.
When burned, these pine pines emit a unique pine flavor that, when neutralized with fat, makes the lamb more tender and delicious, with a light aroma.
It takes a lot of effort to bring these pine pines back to the village, and the villagers' willingness to let young people take these precious pine pines to the bonfire party is enough to prove the support of the villagers.
After the bonfire burned evenly and steadily, Xiao Feng hurriedly put the rack with a whole sheep on top of the bonfire and began to roast the whole sheep.
In Ginkgo Village, roasted whole sheep with skin is a traditional delicacy, and the Xiao family is always indispensable to this heavyweight dish during the New Year's Festival.
The alpine pine is tough, delicate and rich in oil, so it burns very evenly and the lamb will not be scorched if it is flipped quickly.
When the lamb gradually sparkled under the flame, and fell drop by drop on the charcoal fire, making a 'squeak' sound, Chen Hongsheng and others were a little unable to sit still, and picked up the digital camera in their hands to take pictures of the lamb desperately.
Speaking of which, Chen Hongsheng and others can be regarded as well-informed, and they have also seen the drama of roasting whole sheep on the grassland, so they should not be so surprised. Helplessly, this lamb is involved in cleaning up again, the meaning is naturally very different, and it is reasonable to take pictures.
In the square, a huge barbecue grill is also charcoal red, Xiao Qiang, Xiao Dazhi and others are putting all kinds of ingredients on it to roast, all kinds of grease and seasonings fall on the charcoal fire, exuding complex fragrances.
As the aroma of various ingredients continued to permeate, the atmosphere of the scene became more and more enthusiastic, and the young people present naturally did not eat with their heads bored, but began to sing and dance by the bonfire.
Ginkgo Village is located in the mountainous area of western Yunnan, surrounded by more than a dozen ethnic minorities including Tibetan, Yi, Bai, Miao, Lisu and so on. Hundreds of years of multi-ethnic integration have enabled the villagers of Ginkgo Village to sing and dance, and this kind of bonfire party is even more vivid.
Soon, there was a scene of young people singing love songs, and the melodious singing was untainted by the worldly atmosphere, and it was so ethereal that it gave people goosebumps.
Affected by this, Chen Hongsheng and others were not to be outdone, and began to sing their own popular songs, but they were also on a par with the young people in Ginkgo Village.
At the same time as everyone was singing, all kinds of ingredients were also served after the 6 renewal exams, and everyone took advantage of the singing interval to eat meat and drink wine in large bowls, and the atmosphere at the venue was even more warm.
The degree of bud wine is not high, the entrance is long, and it will not be drunk for a while and a half, but under the stimulation of alcohol, the love of all young people is high, whether it is singing and dancing, they gradually put aside their usual reserve and restraint, and become heroic.
The lively singing and dancing competition lasted for more than an hour, and finally the highlight of the bonfire party - roasting whole sheep was finally completed!
After the alpine pine charcoal fire is evenly grilled, the whole lamb is golden and the oil is bubbling on the sheepskin, giving off an intoxicating fragrance.
The steaming lamb was placed on a huge tray, and Xiao Feng began to slice the mutton with a shining Tibetan knife, although his movements were not skilled enough, but it was not satisfactory.
The roast lamb is charred on the outside and tender on the inside, which is full of praise from everyone, after all, this lamb is raised on a pure natural alpine meadow pasture, and has not been fed with feed and some messy things, and the taste is delicious. Of course, some of the Xiao family's secret seasonings and roasting techniques also played a huge role in it.
At the moment of food, everyone is naturally happy to drink, and it is very enjoyable!
The roaring bonfire reflected everyone's faces, and the melodious, loud singing pierced the night sky and floated over Lingquan Mountain.
