"Welcome. Welcome." Vice Captain Lu Feng stretched out his calloused hands. and Zhao Tianlong, Zhou Heitan and Zhang Songling shook each other one by one." Hot day. I guess I'm tired of walking on the road. I just ordered someone to burn milk tea. Let's go inside and drink."
"Come into the house. Enter the house." Redbeard enthusiastically stretched out his arm. Led the guests to the conference room in the middle of the camp." It's cool in the house. Lao Lu. Then help Chef Mu to get some fried rice and milk tofu. Walked all morning. I've been beating a big drum in my stomach for a long time."
"Hey." Vice Captain Lu Feng happily agreed. Turned around and went to the guerrilla man to arrange fried rice. Just a few steps away. But he was stopped by Redbeard's loud voice." Wait a minute. Let Cook Muda come to the barracks door in a moment. Bring back the sheep I just bought with old Haas and slaughter them. By the way, settle the account with old Haas. We just said okay. A piece of three-one head. Just use Manchurian knots!"
"One piece three." Vice Captain Lu's face immediately twitched. Jumping to his feet and yelling." The old thing really dares to open his mouth.. He owes me money for four chairs last time. I still haven't gotten it back yet. You go in with the guests for milk tea first. I myself went to the barracks door and waited for him."
"It's not over yet. I dare to owe my Redbeard's money. It's been almost half a year. You hurry to the door and wait for him. Tell him. If you don't settle the chair money today. Don't expect me to buy his sheep in the future." Redbeard is like a miser. Speak out for your own deputy.
That's all said and done. Only then did I realize that there were still guests around. Smiled awkwardly. Explain in a low voice." Lao Lu was a carpenter before he joined the army. The forests in this area grow thick. So our guerrillas rely on the mountains to eat the mountains. Swap some furniture and exchange things with the herdsmen."
"Hong Ye is benevolent."
"Zhao admires." Zhou Heitan and Zhao Tianlong both respected and sighed. Bow your hand at Redbeard.
"There's no way around it. We are poor. The main forces didn't get much supplies. Not to mention the fact that I'm sending outposts outside." Redbeard sighed softly. Laughing and shaking his head." Don't talk about that. Let's go into the house and drink milk tea. The master of our guerrilla army used to be in charge of the Xuguo Mansion. The tea is very authentic."
"Hong Ye, please." Zhang Songling and others were polite. Followed the red-bearded Wang Hong into the conference room in the center of the camp. This is a common house in the north. The walls are all made of clay slabs. The roof is made of tree trunks as purlins. Planks for rafters. The upper layer is covered from the inside to the outside with willow, mud and wheat straw. Warm in winter and cool in summer. It was very comfortable to stay.
on the north and south sides of the wall. There are four large windows open side by side. The window frames are made of pine. Not painted. It exudes a natural fragrance under the blowing of the mountain breeze. Because it's the end of summer. There is no pasted paper on the window edges. The sun shines directly from outside. Illuminate the inside of the house very brightly. Some small flying insects whose names are unknown flew into the house through the south window through the mountain wind. Then fly away from the window on the north side. Buzz. Never get tired of it. Occasionally, there are flying insects that are tired of playing. It was planted on a pine table in the middle of the room. Make a crisp sound of "pop" and "pop".
"Sit casually. Sit casually." Redbeard stretches out his arms. Move the guests to the northwest corner of the long table.
According to the customs of the steppe. That's the most exalted position. It is usually used to worship the Buddha or to entertain the elders of the tribe. Three guests certainly can't be rude. Smiled and excused himself a few words. They found a northerly position and sat down next to each other. Heavy Da Zhou took out a clean wooden bowl. Laid out in front of every guest and host. Forthwith. Two guerrilla fighters, younger than Zhang Songling, carried a huge copper kettle inside. Fill all the wooden bowls.
Milk tea that has just been boiled out. The fragrance is tangy. Redbeard holds up a bowl of milk tea. Greet everyone warmly." Come. Everyone drink a few sips to moisten the stomach. This thing looks oily. It's the best way to relieve the heat."
Say it. He drank most of the bowl first. Zhao Tianlong and Zhou Heitan are no longer polite. Each of them picked up the milk tea in front of them. Whale swallowing siphon. Only Zhang Songling. I can't open my mouth because of the strong ** smell. He frowned at the wooden bowl in front of him.
"How. I can't get used to this stuff." Redbeard keenly saw Zhang Songling's expression. Ask out loud.
"Previous. I haven't drunk it before." Zhang Songling didn't want to embarrass the owner here. Pick up the bowl. Take a small sip of a slow sip. Milky, tea, and an inexplicable smell. Roll down your tongue and down your throat. Let his thirsty stomach and frowning brow slowly stretch at the same time. Redbeard looks interesting next to it. Blinked. He said, "You take a few bites. This thing is the same as wine. The bigger the mouth. The better it tastes."
"Yes. It's the same with wine. Try it if you don't believe me." Zhou Heitan smiled and helped on the side.
Zhang Songling glanced at the two people suspiciously. Secretly glanced at Zhao Tianlong again. On the faces of the three. Didn't see any issues. Took a deep breath. Pour the milk tea in the bowl directly into your throat.
Hot, slippery, greasy, salty. The four flavors are intertwined. His stomach immediately turned over. It took a while to close your mouth and get used to it. I barely swallowed the rest of my mouth. Eyes widened. Roaring loudly at Zhao Tianlong and Zhou Heitan." You two unrighteous fellows. I knew he was playing tricks on me. I didn't even give a warning."
"Hey, hey. Hey, hey." Zhao Tianlong and Zhou Heitan laughed triumphantly. Aren't we afraid you'll be thirsty? What do you think. It tastes pretty good, right? It's even more authentic with a little milk tofu."
"Get out." Zhang Songling slammed the wooden bowl on the table. His eyes widened and he gasped for air at his two companions. After a few breaths. But there is a unique sweet smell that slowly swells up from the throat and eyes. Slowly spread throughout the mouth. He frowned in surprise. Reach out and grab a piece of milk tofu that has just been served. Take a small bite gently. At first, I tasted only sour and mush. But slowly. The acid and the sour melt in the mouth. It becomes a strong aroma peculiar to dairy products.
When he fled for his life with Zhao Tianlong before. You can't eat milk tofu like that. Zhang Songling took another slice in surprise. Put it in front of you and study it carefully. Very white. Very soft. Very fine. Dried milk tofu are simply two completely different foods. If it is based on previous impressions alone. It's easy to lose interest in tasting. Of course. I also missed a rare delicacy.
"Actually, there are a lot of delicious things on the grassland. It's up to you to have the patience to find out." looked at Zhang Songling's face full of surprise. Redbeard said with a smile. Mushrooms, golden needles, safflower, crust. Roe deer, rabbits, badgers, and half a pound of sand. We're fine these days anyway. I'll take you to taste it all over again. Guaranteed that you have eaten it once after. I'll never forget them." (Note 1)
Note 1: Plot. A fungus that resembles fungus. Grows in glades after rain. The taste is very tasty. But the life span is short. If you don't collect it and dry it. It will disappear soon.
