In the end, Li Yu led a few lambs to the edge of the pond, and solved them one by one, saying that he couldn't bear it, and he didn't have any ambiguity when he started it, it was quite clean and neat, and then whether it was hair removal, cleaning up internal organs, pickling seasonings, etc., there was Lu Baochang beside him to point out, but it was also quite easy, it was difficult to start in every way, and the ancients did not deceive me.
As for the other saying of the ancients: "A gentleman is far away from cooking!" Li Yu automatically ignored that most of the good cooks in the back village were men, and the chefs who reorganized the banquet were all men, and the women were only responsible for the work.
Now the society is too, the world's top chefs are also men, women are rare, housewives are not popular now, women basically can't cook, Li Yu still remembers a joke, "A pair of boyfriends and girlfriends in love, every time a girl cooks a meal, the fried dishes can't bear to look at directly, it's hard to swallow, and the boy is forced to do it himself, until one day they broke up, and the girl made him a delicious meal." ”
At seven o'clock in the afternoon, the sunset completely fell on the other side of Qingyun Mountain, and an orange-red disc hung in the sky, like a unique ornament belonging to the sky, surrounded by a red brilliant sunset, and in the east, a crescent-like waning moon quietly appeared, bringing a touch of cold breath.
In Li Yu's view, the early morning and evening of the back village are the most flavorful, showing its mysterious and distant temperament, and perhaps only during these periods, the entire back village, jade lake and canyon will be integrated with this sky, regardless of each other.
In the past, there was no nightlife in the small mountain village, and there was not much light pollution, and when it was dark, the whole back village entered a dark silence.
I still remember the days when every household used kerosene lamps, and in the evening, all the people gathered on the dam of the construction site with small benches and peanuts, melon seeds, and loose seeds in their pockets.
In summer, the dam does not need flames and lights, the bright and soft moonlight spreads on the ground, shining a layer of silver-white luster, and the moon is the light of the night.
An old scholar in the village was the protagonist of the night, and when all the people had arrived, he sat down slowly, and a seat had already been reserved for him in the middle of the crowd, and there was a high stool with tea next to him, and the old gentleman sat down and cleared his throat.
It is said that Xue Rengui has three arrows to set Tianshan Mountain,,,,,, Liu Yingchun is finally looking forward to "the king of one word side by side"
The hour was spent in this melodious storytelling on an ordinary summer night, but Li Yu remembered it for a lifetime.
Later, the electricity was turned on, and the life of the villagers began to be lively, Li Yu's family was the first to buy TV, at that time, after lunch, all the people came to Li Yu's house to watch "Huanzhu Gege", the room was full of people, laughing with the clever son, crying together, and cheering together when encountering the wonders, at that time, I watched a disc so there were no advertisements and time periods, so a "Huanzhu Gege" can pass a boring afternoon, even if I watched it several times, the people who came did not feel bored, and still watched it with relish, Fortunately, the houses in the countryside are spacious and breathable, and the walls are thick, even if there is no air conditioning in the summer, it does not feel stuffy, otherwise it is really a sauna.
Listening to the book has gradually disappeared, and the old gentleman has already made an ancient appearance, however, tonight's back village is destined to be very lively, because Li Yu decided to hold a grand bonfire party for the rice cutting season in the dam of the construction site, and at the same time welcome guests from afar, once the news came out, it immediately made the men, women and children in the village cheer, although the back village is not big, but there is a grand event, the activity must be lively, and there will be no less.
After Li Yu came with the pickled sheep, he prepared to set up a fire, and at the same time, the monkey and the black dog also successfully got back five or six pheasants and hares from the forest, which will also be one of the main supporting roles of the bonfire party, after the news was released, the only remaining young people in the village have prepared fresh ingredients such as mountain mushrooms, all kinds of seasonal vegetables and fruits, pork, beef, etc., which made the variety and amount of ingredients tonight rise rapidly.
In the end, Li Yu also asked Li Gang to carry two large barrels of Qinghe wine from the wine cellar at home, which he had prepared a long time ago, since he was going to have fun tonight, what could be better than good wine and food? When the time comes, everyone will not get drunk and will not return.
If it is replaced by someone else to organize such a bonfire party, there is no such popularity, even these ingredients are not reluctant, Li Yu sells vegetables to make money is obvious to all, it is not easy to hold such a banquet, as for popularity, Li Yu has not worried about this problem at all, just relying on the Li family is enough to suppress the field, you must know that the Li family has held a banquet, and there are more than 400 people who can be present alone, which can be described as flourishing.
Moreover, the situation of these travelers was also relayed to the villagers through the mouths of monkeys and others, and in the future, they are counting on these guests to help attract tourists and develop the economy of the village.
In this way, Li Yu, who originally just wanted to make a small fuss, found that the scale of the bonfire party was inadvertently expanding rapidly, and the people who came gradually became a little insufficient.
The canyon grassland is next to the Jade Lake, and the canyon is the place where Li Yu found the cloud stone, and the tens of thousands of hectares of grassland at the mouth of the canyon are also the places where the village holds a grand festival, and there are traces of the past in the edge of the grassland, everything is ready-made, so there is no need to bother to bother, Li Yu thinks it is funny that these lambs still returned to the grassland in another way.
After nightfall, Li Yu began to command his few small hair, in the middle of the grassland to light a bonfire, the blazing flames reflected everyone's excited faces, the bonfire used firewood is the fragrant pine of Qingyun Mountain, with a strange fragrance, specially used to roast whole sheep.
These fragrant pines will exude a unique pine flavor after burning, and the fat can make the mutton taste more tender and delicious, but also with a light fragrance, but these fragrant pines are grown at an altitude of 3000 meters above sea level in Qingyun Mountain, to bring these fragrant pines back to the village, but it takes a lot of effort, the villagers are willing to let the young people take these precious fragrant pines to participate in the bonfire party, which is enough to prove the popularity of the villagers.
After the bonfire burned evenly and steadily, Li Yu hurriedly put the rack holding the whole sheep on top of the bonfire and began to roast the whole sheep.
In the back village, roasting whole sheep with skin is a traditional delicacy, and this heavyweight dish is always indispensable at home during the New Year's Festival.
The wood 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 on the charcoal fire one by one, making a 'squeak' sound, He Shuwen 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, He Shuwen and others are also well-informed, and they have also seen the drama of roasting whole sheep on the grassland, so they shouldn't be so surprised, but this lamb is helpless, but they are involved in cleaning up, the meaning is naturally very different, and it is reasonable to take pictures.
Under the rock wall on the edge of the grassland, a huge barbecue grill is also charcoal red, monkeys, Li Gang and others are skewering all kinds of wild boar, pheasant, and hares on the skewers on it, and all kinds of grease and seasonings fall on the charcoal fire, exuding a complex and attractive fragrance.
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.
The song and dance history of the village is long, whether it is a wedding or funeral, there is a unique set of special songs and dances for the play party, people who can sing and dance well abound in the back village, this kind of song is also called a mountain song, soon, after the old people have sung the vicissitudes of the banquet toast, the young people have a scene of singing love songs, the melodious singing has no worldly atmosphere, and it is so ethereal that people have goosebumps.
Affected by this, He Shuwen 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 the back village.
At the same time as everyone sang to each other, all kinds of ingredients were also served one after another, and everyone took advantage of the singing interval to eat meat and drink wine in large bowls, and the atmosphere in the venue was even more warm.
Qinghe wine mixed with a little mountain spring water after the degree is not high, the entrance is long, not drunk for a while, but under the stimulation of alcohol, all the young people's emotions are high, whether it is singing and dancing, they gradually put aside the usual reserve and restraint, and become heroic.
The old people drank wine, smiled and watched the performance of the young people, and the old man who was not satisfied with the old man ate the finger beef, drank the homemade old wine, and began to draw a wine fist, and the excitement was not lost to these young men at all.
The lively singing and dancing competition lasted for more than an hour, and the young men in the back village also sang pop songs, and finally the highlight of the bonfire party - roasting whole sheep was finally completed!
After the charcoal fire of the fragrant pine, the lambs are golden all over, and the oil flowers are bubbling on the sheepskin, exuding an intoxicating fragrance.
The steaming lamb was placed on a huge tray, and Li Yu began to slice the mutton with his 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, and the steamed crispy golden chicken rice is amazing, this golden chicken rice is complicated, it requires chicken and lamb, but it tastes only sweet and soft, without half of the oily taste, except for the old ladies in the village who have decades of experience, even the young women who are skilled cooks have to stand aside.
And these lambs are raised in the pure natural canyon grassland pasture, drink sweet mountain spring water, the salty salt of the rock wall is not less licked, plus they have not been fed feed and some messy things, the taste is delicious can be imagined.
Of course, some of the spices and roasting techniques made by the chief also played a huge role in it, the food is current, the wine is in hand, everyone is naturally happy to drink, very happy, the roaring bonfire reflects everyone's face, melodious, loud singing pierces the night sky, floating in the canyon grassland.
