Chapter 10 Eating game at the eldest girl's house
When I got home, it was already past noon; At this time, the sun hangs high in the sky, radiating its heat to the earth, so that the whole earth continues to be steaming.
In the grove outside the village, the sunlight shines through the gaps between the trees, making the whole grove appear full of light and shadow; Walking in this forest corridor that seems to be crossed by countless lightsabers, Yunyi faintly has the feeling that he is walking in the corridor of memories and time.
Out of the grove, the top of the head without shade was suddenly moved by a feeling of dryness and numbness, and Yun Yizhi said that this was the reason why the sun was shining on the scalp.
Unable to stand the heat, Yunyi trotted for a while, and then soon arrived at the door of the small courtyard.
was about to enter the small courtyard, but Yun Yi found that the eldest girl was standing under the jujube tree in the small courtyard looking at something, facing away from the door of the small courtyard.
Seeing this, Yun Yi hurriedly took a few steps back, and after avoiding the sight of the big girl, he saw that there was no one around, and Yun Yi took out a few chickens and hares that he had beaten in the space, and only then did he go in in a big way.
"Big girl, what are you looking at?" After Yun Yi walked into the small courtyard, he pretended to be a little 'surprised' and asked.
"Uncle, where did you go at noon? When I came to your house, I didn't see you, and I thought you had only been out for a while, but you're only back now? After hearing Yunyi's voice, the eldest girl hurriedly turned around, and when she saw that it was really Yunyi, the eldest girl screamed in surprise, and then complained to Yunyi a few times.
"I'm sorry, big girl, my uncle was a little bored at home, so I went up the mountain and came back with some game." Looking at the concerned eyes of the eldest girl, as well as the complaint that was complaining, but the words revealed serious worry, Yun Yi raised the rabbit and pheasant in his hand slightly excitedly, and said, "Look, this is what my uncle beat with a hunting crossbow this morning, these are enough for us to eat a few beautiful meals, right?" ”
"Ah, uncle, you are so powerful, why do you fight so much!" It wasn't until Yun Yi raised the game in his hand in front of the eldest girl that the eldest girl, who had always cared about Yun Yi, noticed a few game meat that was not light in Yun Yi's hand.
"Hehe, it's just that my hunting crossbow is good, and there are so many prey in this mountain forest, that's why I hunt so much game." It's rare, in the face of the big girl's praise, Yun Yi is a little modest.
"Let's go, let's take it to your house, uncle will follow your house to eat at night, okay?" In the last sentence, Yun Yi pretended to look pitiful, and looked at the big girl with joy on her face.
"Well, for your pity, you can eat with it." Hearing that Yunyi took the initiative to eat at her house for the first time, the eldest girl's heart was overflowing; So she is usually a ladylike girl under the teaching of her mother, but it is also difficult to make a joke with Yunyi, and deliberately learn the appearance of the leader speaking with her hands behind her back.
Since there was no need to cook dinner at home at night, Yun Yi walked towards her house with a heavy pheasant and a hare and a big girl; The door of the house was not even closed, because there had been almost no theft in Qingyunshan Village for so many years.
When he went to the eldest girl's house, Yunyi noticed that there was also a middle-aged man in his forties, who was squatting under the eaves and talking to the eldest girl's father.
"Hey, where did these pheasants come from, little brother?" The strange man who was squatting under the eaves noticed Yun Yi who walked in and said with interest.
"Hehe, when I went up the mountain in the morning, I was itchy when I saw something, so I shot a few with a hunting crossbow." Yun Yi smiled slightly.
"Playing so much in the morning, the little brother is good." This person looked at Yun Yi a little surprised, he just heard the eldest girl's father talk about Yun Yi, and knew that Yun Yi was from a big city; He just thought that Yunyi was a little white face and had no skills.
Who knew that this meeting, this Yunyi is indeed a little white face, and it is also a little white face that pleases girls, but this ability is no worse than those old hunters.
"Big brother, let me introduce you to you, this old brother is from the nearby Wangjia Village, called Wang Dashan, who specializes in mountain goods business; The things of our mountain people are all given by Brother Wang, and by the way, we bring some daily necessities to the villagers. Seeing this, the eldest girl's father got up with a smile and introduced Yunyi.
"Oh, my brother is in the game business." Yun Yi lost a smile on his face, nodded indifferently and said nothing, but he had an opinion in his heart about this Wang Dashan, who looked quite bold; If you don't have to do it, you have to do the business of selling wild animals.
Seeing Yun Yi's cold face, Wang Dashan was not angry, but smiled and said to Yun Yi: "Does my brother think that I am selling wild animals to make black money?" ”
"Where, rely on the mountains to eat the mountains and rely on the water to eat the water!" Yun Yi continued to nod indifferently, saying nice things on his lips, but looking at the expression on his face, it was obviously not like this.
"Ha Luha, big brother, you have wronged Brother Dashan, we have a lot of wild things here, and we have already let go of the fight, not like you think, big brother." Seeing that Yun Yi's expression was still like this, the eldest girl's father smiled and explained to Yun Yi: "The traffic here is remote, and it takes half a day to come in from the outside just on foot, so even if the things in the mountains are beaten, they can't be sold, so we have a lot of things here, and we are not afraid of fighting at all!" ”
"Hehe, I didn't think it through, I misunderstood Brother Wang!" After listening to the explanation of the eldest girl's father, Yun Yi realized that he had misunderstood others, and hurriedly apologized.
Think about it, it takes half a day to walk from Qingshan Village to the nearest highway even empty-handed; On rugged mountain roads, no matter how strong a person is, how many things can he carry, so there are many things in the mountains that can't be finished; At most, the villagers put down traps and traps to make something, and only a few old hunters have hunts and guns hidden in their homes.
This situation has made the wild boars in the mountains a disaster, and the things in the village are harmed a lot every year, but the hunters in the village are already old, and the wild boars are difficult to deal with......
When several men said this, the pheasants and hares brought by Yun Yi were all disemboweled and cleaned by the parents of the eldest girl, except for one pheasant and one rabbit that was stewed, the remaining ones were slightly smeared with salt and spices by the parents of the eldest girl, and hung under the eaves to dry.
This air-drying method is very simple, that is, the large coarse salt particles are evenly coated on the surface of pheasants and rabbits, and then the spices are carefully coated on it, and then the sun is exposed to the sun fiercely, and then hung under the eaves.
Originally, the parents of these pheasants and rabbits only left two, and let them all take the rest back, but Yun Yi sincerely refused; In desperation, they dried it up, and they were going to keep it for later to eat with Yunyi.
When the rabbit meat was stewed, it was the eldest girl's father's hand. In mountain villages, cooking is generally the work of housewives, but when it comes to cooking some dishes with a large meat ratio, such as stewed pork, mutton, dog meat, etc., it is basically the task of the men in the family.
The eldest girl's father washed the rabbit meat with his hands and feet to soak the blood water, chopped it into pieces of 3 cm square, and then put it in a pot of clean water to boil and pick it up, rinsed it again, and boiled all the foam in the rabbit meat.
Then, the eldest girl's mother burned the big iron pot in the kitchen, and when the iron pot was hot, the eldest girl's father poured three taels of oil into the pot very boldly; Suddenly, a thick oil fragrance wafted from the green smoke.
"Zila!!" With the sound of boiling in the pot, the eldest girl's father put the rabbit meat into the pot, and after a little frying, he put in Shao wine, soy sauce, refined salt, green onions, ginger, sugar, cinnamon, star anise and other ingredients, and then added a whole thermos of boiling water, and then covered the pot with a high fire and burned it for a long time.
When the rabbit meat was stewed, the fragrance filled the whole yard, and after a small pot was filled, the three men chatted about the things in the mountains while eating the fragrant stewed rabbit meat on the ridge and drinking the fruit wine brewed in the mountains.
"Eh, if we could have a way to send things out of the mountains here, we wouldn't have to be so poor!" The eldest girl's father seemed to have drunk a little too much, and looked at his empty house and said with emotion: "Seeing that there is nothing at home, there is a TV in a village, and there is no electricity. ”
"What's the solution, the mountain road is too steep, there is no money to build the road, a strong laborer can jump out of the road in a day to remove sixty catties of things, and the profits of everything are lost to the freight!" Wang Dashan also seemed to be a little taller, sighing and complaining about the rugged mountain road.
By the way, it's a shipping problem! ’
Yun Yi understood in his heart, no wonder so many wild animals in the mountains have not been killed, it turns out that it is because of the problem of the road that makes the villagers poor, but the way to protect the natural environment of the mountains and forests, I don't know if the road is good or bad?
Yun Yi was a little drunk, thinking about this question in a daze
