When I was in junior high school, I was in the town middle school, and I was not rich at that time, and I was sent to school, and I could only go home for a week to improve my life, that is to say, I had meat to eat when I went home.

One afternoon in the summer, when the weather was very hot, the class teacher asked the students to go to the shade by the river outside the school for a self-study class.

Li Xin and 2 classmates walked into the distance and read a book in a place where the teacher couldn't see. As a result, when a flock of ducks passed by, one of the classmates picked up a rock and threw it at the ducks. actually won the lottery and stoned one to death. The three of them hurriedly ran over, cleaned up the duck with their bare hands, and lit a fire next to it to start roasting the duck.

Due to the urgency of the roast, it was not half an hour before the duck was already charred black.

One of the classmates picked up the duck and took a bite of it, and ate it with relish. While eating, I said, it tastes good, come, the three of us have divided it. Li Xin saw that duck blood was flowing from the corner of the classmate's mouth. It turned out that it was baked too quickly, and the inside was not cooked, so the three of them also ate it separately.

Later, when they talked about this incident at the class reunion, they sighed together, why is the duck eaten now not as delicious as it was back then?

Li Xin didn't know why he thought of this story, was it all because of eating? Li Xin said secretly: "You don't understand the world of foodies. ”

Roasted hare, not good to master the heat, Li Xin felt unreliable, decided to use Huang Rong's method - called Hua Rabbit. Huang Rong made a chicken for Hong Qigong, so it was called a flower chicken; Now Li Xin is a hare in his hand, so it is called a flower rabbit.

Li Xin found some plantain leaves, wrapped the hare sprinkled with salt all over his body, wrapped it with hemp rope a few times, and then applied wet mud to the outside of the plantain leaves, and finally dug a hole in the ground, put the mud ball covered with the hare in it, and spread it through a layer of coarse sand, and then made a fire on it.

"Brother Xin, what is this for?"

"It's called Flower Rabbit."

"It's called Flower Rabbit, isn't that called Hanako to eat?" Xiaoli had met a woman named Hanako before, who came to beg for food, dressed in tatters, dirty and smelly. Why is such a good hare called Hanako?

"It's not called Hanako."

"It's not called Flower Rabbit to eat, so why is it called Flower Rabbit?"

"The story goes like this, a long time ago, there was a martial arts master, he was the leader of the beggar gang, and the beggar gang is a gang composed of Hanako, so it is called the beggar gang. Later, a woman wanted her favorite person to learn martial arts from the beggar gang leader, but the beggar gang leader was too lazy and unwilling to teach. Later, the woman learned that the beggar gang leader likes to eat, well, just like you, he is also a foodie. He made a delicious dish out of chicken and gave it to the beggar gang leader, and after he ate it, he couldn't stop it, so in order to continue eating, he accepted the two as apprentices. This dish was created, and the first one to eat it was the leader of the beggar gang, and he was also named Huazi, so the dish got its name - called Huaji ......" Li Xinhong Qigong's case made up a story.

Although this story is short, it covers the rivers and lakes, martial arts, heroines, and the key is food, Xiaoli was fascinated by it, and when Li Xin finished speaking, she said: "Oh, oh, Brother Xin, I understand, what we are doing now is a hare, so it is called a flower rabbit." ”

"That's smart." Li Xin felt that the children were teachable.

Xiaoli thought: "The first one to eat is called Hanako, wait until Brother Xin eats first." I don't want to be called Hanako, hehehe...... Hehe...... "He turned his head and thought again: "What if Brother Xin eats first and becomes called Hanako?" Well, I'm going to protect him, give him something to eat, and don't let him become a Hanako, haha, that's it. Xiaoli struggled there for a long time, and finally came to the conclusion that she wanted to protect Li Xin and give Li Xin food, which made her feel comfortable and happy.

After the fire burned for more than an hour, the surrounding wetlands began to dry up, and Li Xin extinguished the fire and piled it up with mud and sand.

"Brother Xin, what is this for?" Xiaoli said strangely.

"Although the open flame is extinguished, the charcoal contains a dark fire, which will continue to emit heat, and the mud and sand are covered with mud to allow the heat to be dissipated downward, so that the hare will ripen quickly." Li Xin explained to Xiaoli.

"Oh, how long will it take?"

Li Xin looked at the color and said, "It should be fine at noon." ”

The two began to wait boredly, and Xiaoli also made a wreath for Li Xin to bring, saying that it could shade the sun, although the March sun was not strong at all, and it was not hot. Xiaoli saw Li Xin wearing a wreath on his head, and circled around him a few times, praising his good looks and praising himself for his beautiful weaving.

Li Xin continued to press yesterday's "gate" and put the noose down. I forgot to eat yesterday's baked cake, and it was still in Li Xin's pocket, and it happened to be used as "bait".

The two also shared a "baoguba" to eat as breakfast. In Xiaoli's words, eat less and eat meat later.

When it was noon, Xiaoli swallowed her saliva and said, "Brother Xin, is it okay to eat?" ”

Li Xin was lying on a shady stone, looking up at the sky, thinking about starting to learn those things while he was young, so as to support him to walk the rivers and lakes in the future.

Li Xin thought for a while and said, "Wait another hour, I'm afraid that it won't be cooked, and I won't be able to eat it then, and if I make it again, the taste will not be good." ”

Xiaoli had to wait in order to eat.

After an hour like this, Li Xin picked up the hot soil with a wooden stick, revealing the mud mass wrapped in the hare, which had dried and cracked, and the dry cracks exuded a hint of fleshy fragrance.

Xiaoli said: "I can't wait. ”

Li Xin smiled, and waited for the mud ball to cool down a little before using some leaves to carry the mud ball out. Li Xin held the mud ball and smashed it on the stone slab with both hands, and the mud ball shattered into several pieces in response, revealing the banana leaves.

The outer layer of the plantain leaf dried up, and after Li Xinxin cut the hemp rope with a short knife, he gently opened it to prevent the soil outside from falling in.

The tender hare meat is revealed, and a strong aroma of meat mixed with the fragrance of banana leaves comes to the face, and the oil stains are covered with the plantain leaves, sparkling in the sun.

Xiaoli squatted next to her and took a deep breath through her nose, her eyes were slightly closed, her head was slightly tilted, and her face was full of enjoyment: "Wow, it's so fragrant." ”

Li Xin found a clean banana leaf, put it on a flat stone slab, put the stuffy hare on top of the banana leaf, took out a short knife, cut a hind leg and handed it to Xiaoli.

Xiaoli had long forgotten about letting Li Xin eat first. I saw her grab her hind legs and take a bite impatiently, and the heat in the flesh made Xiaoli's feet jump straight. I was reluctant to spit it out, so I could only breathe and let the meat get cold as soon as possible.

"Don't worry, slow down." Li Xin laughed when he saw Xiaoli's appearance, which was both cute and silly.

Xiaoli waited for the meat to be a little cold, and while chewing, she said loudly: "Ah, it's so fragrant, it's so tender, and there is a lot of oil." ”

Li Xin saw Xiaoli's funny appearance, smiled and shook his head, foodie. He himself cut a piece of hare meat, put it in his mouth and tasted it, and secretly saved: "It is indeed fresh and tender, and it is an original ecological delicacy." No wonder Hong Qigong can't stop. From making the "gate", to the "gate" dead rabbit, to cleaning, to packaging, to cooking, Li Xin handled it single-handedly, and it was very rewarding to eat.

Li Xin couldn't help but sigh: "It's better than the duck back then?" ”

"What duck? I haven't eaten it. ”

"Eat yours, eat it, the oil is about to flow to your clothes."

The two of them ate half of it, most of which Xiaoli ate, her hands were full, her mouth was full of residual oil stains, and her clothes were stained a lot.

Li Xin took Xiaoli to the stream, rubbed her hands and mouth with fine sand, and then washed it off with water, so that the oil on her hands and mouth was slightly cleaner.

Xiaoli touched her belly with her hand, burped, and said in her mouth: "Brother Xin, I really want to eat more, but unfortunately my stomach can't fit it." ”

"What a foodie." After speaking, wrap the remaining hare meat with banana leaves, take it home later, and eat it with Uncle Su Qijiu in the evening.

Xiaoli ate the meat, rested for a while, and said, "Brother Xin, let's go home." After eating the meat, Xiaoli felt that there was nothing interesting on the mountain, and proposed to go home.

Li Xin, looking at the sky, it was more than 3 o'clock, and the old scalper didn't eat grass anymore, so he nodded and said, "It's okay!" ”

On the way home, Xiaoli muttered to herself: "Such delicious meat, why is it called Flower Rabbit and Flower Child, and they all eat such delicious meat...... Oops, it looks like I ate it first, it's over......"

"Brother Xin, in case I become a flower child in the future, you must give me food."

"So so?"

"Because I'm the first one to eat it, it's called Flower Rabbit...... Woo woo woo ......" Xiao Li was sad from her heart and couldn't help whimpering.

When Li Xin asked the reason, he couldn't help laughing, if he said so, how much saliva would the "saliva chicken" have? How many couples does "Husband and Wife Lung Tablets" have to kill?

When Li Xin explained to Xiaoli, the name of the dish was just for easy to remember, it was different, and the story was just given, which made Xiaoli burst into tears and laughed.

……

The two of them were halfway through the journey and met the Gu family couple who were farming.

When the aunt of the Gu family saw Li Xin coming, she shouted, "Xiaoxin, why are you still here?" ”

"What's the matter, I'll come back from herding the cattle."

"Xiaoxin, your mother seems to be gone."

"Aunt Gu, my mother is so likely to be gone, don't be kidding."

Uncle Gu next to him said: "No kidding, Cui Jiu came to ask us just now, and asked if we saw your mother." We've been plowing the field here since the morning, and we haven't seen your mother pass by. ”

Li Xin was taken aback and said secretly: "What's the matter?" My mother said that she would help me prepare the materials for reading today, how could it be gone? ”

"Uncle Gu and Aunt Gu, what's going on?" Although Li Xin was flustered, he still calmed down and asked?

"We don't know the specifics, Cui Jiu came over just now and said that I haven't seen your mother for a day today. Your mother hasn't appeared for so long, and Cui Jiu is worried that something will happen, so she is looking for it everywhere. ”

"Okay, I'll go back and have a look."

"Don't worry, maybe your mother is going to do something, Cui Jiu is nervous." Uncle Gu said to Li Xin and the others who rushed to their home in a hurry.

"Brother Xin, don't worry, in broad daylight, Qi Niang should go out to do things." Xiaoli trotted and explained.

Li Xin said secretly: "Xiaoli is right, there are a lot of people in the Yinfeng Department, and everyone has a good relationship, and my mother is chatting with others, and I don't necessarily say it's okay, my mother should be fine." Although I wanted to comfort myself in this way, a bad thought rose from the bottom of my heart.

The sixth sense told him that something had happened to his mother Su Qi......
