I looked at the black and thin Uncle Liu and sighed softly. "Uncle Liu, who is in charge of buying vegetables here?"

Uncle Liu replied while lighting the fire: "No one can go out to buy vegetables, they are all a few vegetable sellers who have made an appointment with Mr. Mao, and they carry a few baskets of rotten vegetables to be delivered here directly every morning." ”

It's all rotten leaves, no wonder, after I washed it for a long time and then picked some more, there weren't many good dishes left.

These guys must have only spent a few pennies to buy some green vegetables and rotten vegetable leaves to fool people.

I turned around and asked Ergouzi, "Does Mr. Mao care about them eating these dishes too?" ”

"No, there are a few guys from the big wine shop who come to the mine every day, and they all bring good food and drink, especially Mao Xusan, he eats and drinks spicy food every day, so he doesn't care if we live or die!" The second dog crooked his mouth and said indignantly.

"Can you guys meet the tavern guys who came up the hill?" I rolled my eyes and seemed to have a good idea.

"I can meet them because I'm the one in charge of leading the way up the mountain to the tavern guys." Another young man named Goudan looked at me shyly and said.

I took off a gold bracelet from my hand and handed it to him, saying, "Dog, when they come tomorrow, you will give them this gold bracelet and tell them that every time they go up the mountain, they will secretly bring some pork up to us." ”

Seeing that this big gold bracelet weighed several taels, the four of them, together with Liu Boke, had never seen such a valuable thing. For a moment, his eyes widened, and he dared to reach out and take it.

I put the gold bracelet into the dog's hand and said, "Put it away, don't let them see it." ”

The dog immediately looked around, and hurriedly stuffed the gold bracelet into his arms.

Everyone was smiling when they saw me. "Hehe meat buns, you are really a lucky star, I didn't expect that we would have meat to eat as soon as you came." Uncle Liu smiled so hard that his eyes narrowed into a slit.

I smiled slightly: "Hehe Uncle Liu, this is nothing, but this matter must not be known to Lao Mao." ”

The other four immediately assured that they would keep their mouths shut and not divulge secrets.

That night I spent the night nestled on a pile of straw in the kitchen. Because it was very cold at night, I had to turn on the stove to sleep. Uncle Liu and the four little chefs knew that it would be inconvenient for me to be a girl's house, so they all went to sleep in the huts of other miners.

The next day, before dawn, there was a commotion in the mine. Our kitchen only needs to cook lunch and dinner, so we are just waiting for the delivery person to arrive in the morning.

"Alas, there is no rice again, I have drunk gruel for the past few days, and I still ran out of rice." Uncle Liu opened the rice jar and found that it was empty.

I patted him on the back and said with a smile, "Hehe, the meat is almost there, are you still afraid that there will be no rice?" He smiled knowingly, and stopped lamenting.

Money is easy to do, and at noon, Goudan hurriedly rushed towards us with two large baskets of cabbage.

Seeing his sweaty appearance, there was a young man named Zhang San who couldn't help but make fun of him. "Dog, you're really getting worse and worse as you live, two baskets of rotten vegetable leaves can make you tired like this, you probably have kidney deficiency. Haha......"

"You Zhang San, be careful that I break your mouth, follow me back to the kitchen!" He dragged Zhang San and walked to the kitchen.

I watched the two of them come over in a hurry. Hehe, I knew it had to be pork.

Sure enough, as soon as the burden on the dog's shoulders was put on the ground, the second dog couldn't help but pull the things in the basket.

It turned out that only a thin layer on the top was cabbage leaves, and the bottom was full of pork. Two large baskets of pork.

"Wow, my mother, I've never seen so much meat!" Ergouzi couldn't wait to cook and eat the meat immediately, he couldn't remember how long he hadn't touched the oil star.

"There are so many people in the mine, so much meat...... It's barely enough to eat for a day, right? I asked Uncle Liu.

Uncle Liu's mouth couldn't close, "Oh, silly girl, those good pork, even the farmers who usually farm at home can't eat it, not to mention that we are bitter people, it is already worth it to eat such a big meal in our lifetime!" ”

Listening to his words, I couldn't help but feel sad. I said to myself: When I go out in the future, I must let all the people in the mine have a good job, even if they are not middle peasants, they must be able to afford to eat meat every day.

"The meat has arrived, what now?" The second dog and a few of them all looked at me in unison.

I thought for a moment and said, "In this way, let's dig a hole in the bottom of the big bamboo shoot that we peeled yesterday, hollow out the middle, then cut the pork and stuff it in, and finally use the part of the bamboo shoot to plug the small hole under it." ”

Uncle Liu clapped his palms and said: "Yes, cook such big bamboo shoots in the pot one by one, and it looks like a good bamboo shoot from the outside, but when you bite into it, you realize that it is full of oily pork!" ”

Everyone laughed happily. "That's right! Lao Mao, they won't know if they want to break their heads, we eat better than them, haha! ”

We immediately got to work, knowing that meat was about to be eaten, and the four guys in the kitchen were working so hard that I couldn't help much.

At noon, the people who came to the kitchen to line up to receive their meals were stunned.

"What? I don't even have gruel, so I give such a big bamboo shoot? A man was already screaming in dissatisfaction.

"This ...... This...... How are we going to mine after eating this? Where do we have the strength to work! "That's right, this still doesn't let people live? It's so unreasonable! ”

There were more and more angry people in the crowd, and Uncle Liu thought to himself: Hehe, you guys who don't know what to do, when you take a bite, you will know that this is much better than that gruel.

I see that the situation is getting a little out of control. Immediately, he tapped the only copper basin in the kitchen with a large spoon.

When everyone heard this violent sound, they immediately fell silent. They just stared at me intently, and almost everyone wondered, when did such a fleshy woman come out here?

I smiled at them and said, "Listen to me, this Mr. Mao has forgotten to buy rice for a while, and we can forgive them." Today, for the sake of me, a newcomer, let's eat a meal of bamboo shoots first, and our kitchen staff will promise that there will be rice delivered up the mountain tomorrow. ”

"Alas, it's up to this little girl, it's all in vain, Mr. Mao didn't buy rice, what do you let the people in the kitchen do? Can it be changed to you out of thin air? There were more and more voices like this, and everyone fell silent. After the distribution, almost everyone had two large bamboo shoots in their hands.

As usual, everyone lamented and nestled in all corners of the mine to eat lunch. But the only difference between today and usual was that they took the first bite with a frown, but they took the second bite with a gobble and a red face.

"Ahh This is...... This is meat ......" A miner's tears were about to flow out, he couldn't help but scream, and the person next to him immediately covered his mouth and said: "Shhh, don't make a sound, haven't you seen it yet?" It's all made for us by the people in the kitchen. You can't call Lao Mao that they found out! Eat! ”

They looked at the big bamboo shoots in their hands, and their eyes were shining.

Mao Xusan and a few other small leaders were eating in the house, and when they saw the people outside eating so happily, they couldn't help but mock: "Hey, tell me, those poor bones are really cheap, and they are so happy to eat bamboo shoots!" ”

"Haha whatever, they gnaw their bamboo shoots, we eat our roast duck meat, anyway, these people are getting less and less concerned, why are there so many duck heads and duck butts recently......"
