Today has officially opened the shelf function, but the little orange still has to send a few more free public versions to repay the brothers and sisters who have been supporting me, I hope you can feel the sincerity of the little orange, and please continue to support the little orange, thank you! ~

Behind the pond is a huge boulder, which stands on the mountainside like a tall building. On the left side of the pond is a dense jungle, and the trees in this area are so dense that the people in the village did not cut down the trees on this side.

The teachers specially explained that the students were not allowed to climb mountains and trees to prevent safety accidents, after all, they must be responsible for their safety when they bring students out.

In front of the pond is a clearing where trees have been felled, but the ground is not very flat, with small rocks and many tree stumps, and if you are not careful, you can trip over. Several classmates had already wrestled just now, but fortunately, they only suffered a little skin trauma, and they were fine if they rubbed a little anti-inflammatory medicine and put a band-aid on it.

After the homeroom teacher, Mr. Lin, explained the safety issues, he asked the students to prepare a picnic, and at the same time let the students feel the beauty of nature and spring more, so that they will have a lot of ideas when writing essays, and they can also write what they think in their hearts.

Next, all the students quickly found the position they occupied, and then began to divide the labor, holding the stone and starting to build a stove for cooking.

"Chen Xiangliang and Zuo Jiancheng Lin Daoyuan, a few of you will go to the woods to find firewood for cooking. Chen Yan and Li Qiuyan went to wash the vegetables first, Xu Huan and Xia Mingjun were responsible for fetching water and washing vegetables for them, as for Kexin and Li Chen, you can do whatever you want. Ling Chen said to the students in the two groups.

"Li Chen, let's follow Zuo Jiancheng and them to find firewood." Chen Kexin also wants to do her best for this team, and doesn't want to be a drag oil bottle.

"Okay, fat man, let's get firewood!" Li Chen said happily, took Chen Kexin's hand and prepared to walk into the woods.

"Stinky Chenzi, I'm not fat now!" Chen Xiangliang said angrily, causing Chen Kexin to giggle.

"Remember to stay safe and never get bitten by snakes." Ling Chen shouted loudly to them, there are still snakes, insects, rats and ants in this mountain, so safety comes first.

"Got it!" Li Chen's playful voice came from afar, and at the same time, there was a ringing of laughter.

The two physical education teachers had already entered the woods to inspect the safety to prevent accidents, and the principal came over at this time, and saw Chen Kexin, who had already walked away, with a worried look on his face, so he followed into the woods, ready to take care of Chen Kexin's safety personally.

"Boss, do you need my help?" Li Yuncong asked Ling Chen, who was digging the stove, with a smile.

"No, if you're feeling idle, let's go find firewood together." Ling Chen responded, and then continued to swing his hoe, preparing to dig a stove out.

Many of the students in the other groups in the class used the stones on the ground to build a stove on the spot, but Ling Chen felt that the stove made of stones was not very stable, so he chose to dig a stove out.

Ling Chen chose a place with uneven road surface, first deepened the low-lying area below, and then cleaned it up. Wait until the low-lying area forms a vertical state with the ground above.

"Boss, we've already raised the water, why don't we catch some small fish?" Xu Huan asked excitedly.

"Don't, the head teacher and they are just staring at the pond, don't bump into it, if you think you have nothing to do, you can find firewood, or you can help Chen Yan wash vegetables." Ling Chen stopped and said to Xu Huan.

"I can't do the washing, I'd better go find firewood, by the way, I'll take a hoe, so it's much more convenient to find firewood." After Xu Huan finished speaking, he took a hoe and went with Li Yuncong to the woods to find dead wood.

"Thank you two for your hard work!" Ling Chen said loudly to Chen Yan and Li Qiuyan.

"It's nothing." Chen Yan replied with a smile.

Ling Chen continued to wield his hoe, digging out the vertical side that was high and low from the middle, preparing to hollow out the inside and make a model of the stove first. When Ling Chen was a child, he often dug such a stove when he was herding cattle, so he was very familiar with it, and soon, Ling Chen had already made a model of the stove first, just waiting for an opening on it to put the pot.

Lin Daoyuan brought a stir-fry pot and a rice cooker, so Ling Chen was ready to dig two stoves, and cooking rice and stir-frying could be carried out at the same time, which was much more efficient.

"Whew!" Ling Chen let out a long breath, and finally dug a stove, the one he dug before failed.

"Do you want to wash your face with water?" Chen Yan walked over and saw that Ling Chen's face was sweating, so he carried the bucket of water and put it next to Ling Chen.

"Thank you!" Ling Chen put down the hoe, then picked up the water with both hands and splashed it vigorously on his face, and suddenly, a cool feeling came, which was very refreshing.

Chen Yan just looked at Ling Chen with a smile and didn't speak. Li Qiuyan on the side glanced at Chen Yan dissatisfied, and then continued to wash the vegetables.

Ling Chen called out to Xia Mingjun, who was helping others make stoves, and asked him to continue to help fetch water for Chen Yan and the others, and at the same time asked him to clean the kitchen utensils and tableware he brought.

With the experience of digging the stove in the first two times, Ling Chen was very successful in the third time, and it didn't take long to dig it. Ling Chen sat on the green lawn, looking at his masterpiece just now, and sighed in his heart that he was still a treasure sword, very complacent.

The laughter and slapstick of the students from the other groups next to him from time to time were obviously very happy, and Ling Chen was also very happy, because since he was reborn, Ling Chen had never been so relaxed, and he could relive his childhood picnic, Ling Chen felt very warm.

Soon, Chen Xiangliang and the others came over with a large handful of firewood, firewood in the woods was very easy to find, and even Chen Kexin and Li Chen each came back with a lot of firewood.

"Orange, you see I've found a lot of firewood!" Li Chen pointed to the firewood he had just put down and showed off.

"Mmmm, Chenzi, you're so amazing!" Ling Chen appreciated, and when she saw Chen Kexin next to her, she seemed to be looking for more firewood than Li Chen, so she encouraged: "Kexin is also very powerful, she found so much firewood in a while, it's amazing!" ”

Chen Kexin heard Ling Chen's praise and smiled sweetly, and her smile was very intoxicating with a pair of Danfeng eyes.

The rest of the people had nothing to do, so they carried forward the mentality of helping others, and began to help other students make stoves and carry water, in short, the atmosphere was very harmonious, and the laughter from time to time was also very happy.

"Fatty, you first light a fire on this stove, dry all the water in it, and by the way, boil some water in a pot to clean the bacon brought by Lin Daoyuan."

"Okay." Chen Xiangliang happily folded the branches and put them into the dug stove, and then used the cedar leaves he picked up to start the fire, and soon, the flames were high.

Ling Chen put the stir-fry pot on it, then poured water, and then put the bacon in it. Because it was a picnic and the ground was not very flat, Ling Chen, who was used to using a high stove, was naturally not used to it. However, this was Ling Chen's first picnic after being reborn, so he was very happy and a little happy.

Bacon is a special product of Xiangyang Province, every winter wax moon ten, every household kills the New Year's pig, and then the pork is pickled, and then the pickled pork is threaded with palm leaves or ropes and hung on the stove.

When the family uses firewood to boil water every day to cook, the smoke from the competition begins to smoke on the pieces of meat hanging on it, so bacon is also called bacon.

The pieces of meat that have been smoked by firewood for a long time can be kept for a long time, and the original piece of meat weighing more than 10 pounds, after pickling and smoking, will shrink seriously, and generally 10 pounds of meat pieces are made of bacon, and it is very good to have 6 pounds.

Smoked bacon, the surface and the inside are consistent, cooked and cut into slices, transparent and shiny, the color is bright, the yellow is translucent and red, the taste is mellow and fragrant, the fat is not greasy, the thin is not stuffed with teeth, not only the flavor is unique, but also has the functions of appetizing, going to cold, eliminating food, etc. Shonan bacon maintains the characteristics of good color, aroma, taste and shape, and is known as the praise of "a family of boiled meat and a hundred fragrant meats".

This small piece of bacon brought by Lin Daoyuan has more than a catty, a black piece, thrown into the pot and quickly infected the water in the pot black, Ling Chen had to clean it a little and bring out the bacon, and then asked Chen Xiangliang to pour out the pot of water and replace it with new water, no way, the bacon has been roasted and smoked by fire for a long time, although it can be retained for a long time, but it is stained with too much black soot.

Patience and care are required to make bacon, and each piece of bacon must be washed several times and boiled in boiling water to clean the soot from the meat pieces. Boiling with boiling water can also sterilize bacon. Therefore, the procedure for making delicious bacon is more complicated, otherwise the bacon in Shonan would not be so famous.

"Built, you're ready to wash rice and cook." Ling Chen finally cleaned the piece of bacon, using a large bucket of water and a lot of firewood.

"Okay." Under Ling Chen's instructions, Zuo Jiancheng began to pour the purchased rice into the rice cooker, and then began to wash the rice with the water in the bucket.

"Cook the rice!"

The students shouted happily.
