Chapter 162: Celebration Party, Abnormal Changes
The celebration was held in the open air, in the open space in the middle of the village.
When Lin Qingqing went by in the morning, there was already a bonfire lit there, and a clay pot full of water was set up on the bonfire. A few men next to him were disemboweling, disemboweling and disposing of their prey.
Covering her mouth and yawning, Lin Qingqing's face was drowsy: "Why did you come so early?" The celebration will be held at night, so if you slaughter your prey now, will it taste good at night? ”
A man looked up and saw Lin Qingqing, and couldn't help laughing: "Wise man, why are you here so early?" It's just dawn, so let's go back and sleep again. As he spoke, he tilted his head and glanced behind Lin Qingqing, "What about Ling?" Why didn't I come with you? ”
Lin Qingqing approached the clay pot and looked at it, then reached out and added a handful of firewood, and then said: "He hadn't woken up when I came out, and he had been running outside for several days, but he was tired." ”
The men laughed, stretched out their fingers to the other side, and said with a smile: "Look who is that?" ”
"Who?" Lin Qingqing looked up and saw a long and sturdy figure slowly walking out of the morning mist. When the others walked in, it was the topic of conversation just now-Ling.
A man put down the bone knife in his hand, raised his hand to wipe the sweat on his face, and said loudly: "I'll just say, if you don't follow behind, how can Ling rest assured that you will come out by yourself." ”
Looking at Lin Qingqing again, he had already jumped to Ling's side, took his big hand and smiled: "Are you awake?" I thought I was moving lightly enough, why did I wake you up? ”
Ling took Lin Qingqing into his arms and hugged her, and pinched her face with both hands. sighed: "My daughter-in-law and children are all up, can I be lazy?" After a pause, he added, "You woke up so early, is it the first time you are nervous to be a chef?" ”
Lin Qingqing glanced at the bonfires around him and sighed lightly, "Isn't it, those old men are cunning and threw all the things to me, can I do it well?" Besides. It's not the same as last time. These are two villages, if I don't do it well, I won't lose your face as the village chief! ”
Ling chuckled and looked at Lin Qingqing narrowly. "Wife. You're so nervous about me. Fingers swirled around the ends of her hair. Ling whispered in Lin Qingqing's ear, "Actually, I'm not afraid of losing face, I've been afraid since the day I met you......"
"......" Lin Qingqing blinked. And then reacted, "You go away!! ”
This was the first meeting between the two villages, and Lin Qingqing thought that this might be a precursor to the formal establishment of diplomatic relations between the two villages, so he was determined to handle it well.
The men slaughtered three wild boars and two cows, and then according to Lin Qingqing's requirements, they deboned and cut the meat, and the internal organs were placed in a separate basin. The blood is gone, the blood intestines, the blood tofu, the hair and the blood are all serious and delicious. Ahem, although she doesn't know how to do it, the experiment can still be successful.
By the time the prey was packed, it was already approaching noon. Lin Qingqing looked up at the sun, wiped the sweat on his face, and said to everyone: "It's almost busy, let's rest first." ”
She boiled the sweet soup and put it in the cold water to simmer, which was the right time to drink. Carrying the bamboo bucket containing the sweet soup to the table, Lin Qingqing beckoned to the little daughter-in-law of the Liang family: "Bei, you give everyone a point." I'll go over there and take a look, and there's still some meat that's not marinated. ”
Bei nodded, took the initiative to take the wooden spoon in Lin Qingqing's hand, and responded while filling the bowl with soup: "I know, wise man, you go get busy first." ”
Three wild boars, two cows, slaughtered a lot of meat, half a man wide barrel filled more than twenty. Lin Qingqing and a few women in the village evenly spread salt and seasoning on the chopped meat, marinated it, and then let the men skewer it with sturdy wooden sticks. In the evening, just bake it.
The seasoning was made by Lin Qingqing and Mu, and it took a lot of medicinal materials. For this reason, Mu is still a little anxious with Lin Qingqing, medicinal materials, how can it be so wasted? What if I run out of stock one day?
But Lin Qingqing is not a person who can compromise! Brainwashing at the crackling wood, what do you say can be used for medicinal materials with similar functions to peppercorns? Besides, even if it is useful, isn't it the same as smearing it on meat and eating it in the stomach?
Everyone didn't go back to eat lunch, so they built a pergola here, and then roasted Lin Qingqing's newly marinated meat skewers on the bonfire. Not to mention, it tastes really good.
A few people feasted and ate with a mouthful of oil. At the end, they all praised Lin Qingqing: "Wise man, your skills are so good." ”
"Mmmm, it's so delicious, it's really cheaper than those people in the next village."
"It's just that if I knew it was so delicious, I wouldn't call them ......"
Just after noon, the eagle came with a few men and two fat wild boars. Throwing his prey on the ground, he went to the bottom of the pergola, reached out and scooped up a bowl of soup. Only then did he say to Ling, "Do you see if it's enough?" There were a few brothers in the back, who took a lot of small prey, and there must have been dozens of gooing beasts and hares, as well as firewood, and carried five or six bundles over......"
Ling They were willing to bring themselves to the celebration party, which surprised the eagle. After all, from the moment he cut off the supply of clay, he was ready for the two sides to break up. In the past few days, he has been training with the men in the village, just waiting to fight.
Who knows, in the end, I actually waited for the invitation to the celebration banquet?
Ling smiled indifferently, looked into the eagle's eyes and said, "The Eagle Village Chief is polite, please come over and gather, how can there be any reason to let you have something?" Glancing at the wooden barrel full of meat next to him, he said, "We have all the things ready, and the Eagle Village Chief only needs to bring his brothers over to eat and drink." It's been hard work to build a house these days, and it's time for everyone to rest. ”
"Especially Qi Heli, their partners miss them."
Ying nodded and said, "Brother Qi and Brother Li will always be my Ying's good brothers, Village Chief Ling is right, they have really worked hard for a while." And the brothers who burned the kiln, they all worked hard. ”
After a pause, he said, "The little thing I brought can be regarded as a thank you gift to these brothers, Village Chief Ling must not refuse!" ”
Ling smiled, his gaze turning over the two wild boars on the ground. "Since the Eagle Village Chief said so, then I will accept it with a cheeky face."
Eagle: "What about the ...... excuse me?"
In the evening, the bonfires in the clearing were lit, and the people of the two villages were almost there. Lin Qingqing led Bei, Luo and other women to work in an orderly manner.
Except for the pre-marinated barbecue, the rest are large pot dishes. Stir-fried blood sausage, fat sausage, stewed pork ribs, fried steak, sweet and sour pork ribs, sweet and sour pork, spicy hot and sour fish. At first glance. It caused everyone to come to the edge of the pot.
An old Eminem took a spoon and knocked on his head one by one, and said, "Are there any rules?" All back, all back! Everyone will have a part in a while! ”
These cauldron dishes are made with stone pots, and below them is a brick-built stove. Someone is in charge of adding firewood. Use a clean stone spatula for stir-frying. Lin Qingqing's arm strength is limited. So the stir-frying work was handed over to Bei, Luo and Aya. She commanded on the side, and although the relationship between several was complicated, they cooperated well.
Especially Aya. I don't know what's wrong, I didn't say anything when I saw Lin Qingqing this time.
For this reason, Lin Qingqing also specially discussed with Ling, saying that this mushroom Liang saw that Liang was settled, so he was stimulated? The loyal dog has a way out of the spare tire, and he is still single, which is decisively unbalanced!
Because there are too many people and there are not enough pottery bowls, Lin Qingqing and the others are all wooden utensils, they are not afraid of falling or stealing, and they will not have any property loss. Well, of course, she had to admit that it was an idea that the senators came up with!
The meaning of the men of Zhaoshi and Ling was to use all pottery bowls. One is to show the wealth of his village, and the other is to promote the pottery and hook up with the eagle. But as soon as the words were finished, they were knocked chestnuts by a few patriarchs, scolding them for being unproductive, and they were not afraid of being remembered by thieves and bandits when they saved such a little money!
Therefore, in line with the principle of respecting the elders, the idea of the patriarchs was finally adopted - all wooden utensils were used.
Of course, Lin Qingqing also agrees with this idea.
People who have watched a lot of TV know that no matter men or women, they will lose their minds when they are crazy, and they like to crackle and smash dishes, chopsticks, wine glasses or something, which is both imposing and arrogant! In addition, there are a lot of little cubs and old people in it, if you don't hold it steadily, won't the pottery be broken?
So, wood is the safest.
Large plates of roasted meat and stir-fried vegetables were brought to the long tables in front of each campfire, and the men, women, and children of the two villages were already seated, and it was time for the village chief and the patriarch to finish speaking.
Lin Qingqing wiped the sweat on his face, walked to the side and pulled a man from his village and asked, "Are the people from the Sea Clan here?" ”
The man shook his head, and then looked at Lin Qingqing with surprise on his face: "Wise man, is the Sea Clan here too?" Emma, I'm going to rush! "It's all a bunch of girls, don't be taken away by the wolves in the mountains.
Looking at the figure of the man running away excitedly, Lin Qingqing's heart was like this: "......" Sooner or later, one day Mushroom Liang will let you all marry your daughter-in-law, and now in this state, the woman will just hook her fingers and run away.
To be sure, the fish was reluctant to lead the women of the clan to the celebration. After Bei left, several more women left one after another, some came to Lin Qingqing's side, and some went to Ying's side. He couldn't stop it, and he couldn't stop it.
In this world, women who have left the clan land are like rootless wanderers, he can't give them the security and dependence they want, and naturally he can't stop them from leaving.
Yu sent several letters to the beach, and each time his father said that one qiē is good, and one qiē is smooth, so that he does not have to worry. But if he can't see his father for a day, he can't let go for a day.
Glancing coldly at the woman who was about to go to the village, the fish's mood was a little more depressed. If it weren't for these people, he would have run back to be with Daddy.
The more excited the women's faces were, the more violent the fish's mood became. Reaching out and beckoning to one of the guards, the fish whispered a few words in his ear. The guard nodded, picked up the bone knife and spear, and left silently. The fish stared at the guard's back for a few moments until he completely disappeared from view, then flicked his sleeves and walked back into the house with a sneer on his lips.
The man who went to the station had been gone for half an hour, and no one had returned, so Lin Qingqing was a little anxious. What's going on with that fish! Didn't you say you would come? Why isn't it now? Looking at the anxious people from the two villages, she stomped her feet angrily and ran to find Ling.
At this moment, Ling and Ying were sitting together discussing things, and the elites of the two villages, including Mu and Liang, were also involved. Several people had cold faces, straight backs, and a feeling that they would meet each other in a second.
Lin Qingqing ran to the table and said to Ling urgently, "What's going on over there?" Not yet! Everyone is in a hurry! ”
Ling was stunned, looked up and looked around, only to find that the dishes were ready, and the villagers of the two villages were basically ready, and now they were holding chopsticks and drooling at the dishes.
"Said you were coming?" Ling asked, "Did you send someone to urge you?" Raising his hand to gently wipe the sweat from Lin Qingqing's face, he comforted, "Don't worry, I'll let someone urge you again." ”
As he spoke, Ling stretched out his hand and beckoned a man to come over and asked him to go to the station to urge.
The man nodded and laughed, "Okay, I'll go now." To tell the truth, the food made by the wise man is delicious, and he drools when he smells it. If the Sea Clan people don't come again, I can't bear it anymore. So saying, he strode towards the station.
"Don't!" Lin Qingqing stretched out his hand to grab the man's arm, his face was a little hesitant, "Take a few more people, don't go by yourself." Turning her head to look at Ling, Lin Qingqing was a little uncomfortable and said, "Husband, I feel a little uneasy in my heart. "I always felt like something bad was happening.
Ling rubbed her head and chuckled, "What could it be?" Don't scare yourself. It may be that you are tired after a busy day, and it is good to rest and rest. ”
Seeing that Lin Qingqing still had a solemn face, Ling couldn't help but say, "Why don't I go over and see it myself?" ”
The Sea Tribe's garrison is located on a wasteland between two villages, and from the village to the garrison, you have to pass through a small grassland. Originally, there was no road in between, but recently there have been more people walking, and they have slowly stepped on a small path.
Because Lin Qingqing guessed that something was wrong with the Sea Clan, Ling and Ying both came. Of course, the others didn't know, and before they came, a few people also said to the patriarchs, and asked a few old people to greet everyone to eat and drink. Several men left with Lin Qingqing.
The sky was getting darker, and the wind picked up again, swirling low over the open grassland, making a low roar. Lin Qingqing couldn't help but shiver, grabbed Ling's arm, and looked around vigilantly.
Ling reached out and patted her on the shoulder, and whispered comfortingly, "It's okay, don't be afraid." Unconsciously, Ling Ye frowned, he should have taken a torch and came out again.
After taking a few steps forward, Ying suddenly stopped, stretched out his hand to stop Ling and Lin Qingqing, and said in a low voice, "What smell?" (To be continued......)
