Chapter 151: Fighting Grass
There is no need to prepare anything else for the meal, just rabbit meat, braised eel lotus, etc.
Of course, in order to treat Xiaopi and his family, Liu Junhao allocated a lot of money for them when the meal was ready.
originally wanted Professor Zhao to accompany the guests, but who knew that when he was ready, the other side would already start eating. He had no choice but to call the two little ones over.
I often like to drink a little wine, so Liu Junhao warmed up the rice wine for more than three catties. At the end of the wheat harvest, he asked Liu Wuye to help brew more than ten catties of rice wine, and he had to heat half a catty to drink with Professor Zhao every three or five times, so the plastic pot had already been drunk. This is just a troublesome brew, and there are more than six catties left.
The rice wine has a low degree, and he can't drink it, so he gives half a bowl to the people on the wine table one by one, even Xiao Haoyu is no exception.
This little guy has been drinking rice wine lately, and Professor Zhao didn't listen to him no matter how much he persuaded him.
"Xiao Hao, I can see that you not only raise yellow eels well, but you are also absolutely first-class in cooking, even compared with the chef of the restaurant." Lao Chang drank two sips of rice wine, and then added a pair of chopsticks and rabbit meat to taste deliciously.
"Like, I've done it many times with an eel, but I've never burned the bones so crispy, how do you do that?" The old daughter-in-law also admired it from the bottom of her heart.
"Hehe, the main thing is that the heat should be well handled, as well as the ingredients, my thirteen spices are all special." It is said that Liu Junhao was able to get his hands on the three dishes that he made two tonight, can this dish not be delicious.
He saw that the porridge in Lao Chang's bowl had been drunk, and he wanted to serve it to him, but Lao Chang hurriedly stopped him from coming.
The two of them are arguing. But suddenly I heard the sound of gongs at the entrance of the village. There was also shouting in between.
"It's on fire?!" Liu Junhao immediately shouted. Rushing out of the yard with a bucket of water. This gong sound is the fire alarm signal of Liujiagou. As soon as you hear the sound of the gong. The whole village carries buckets. Running towards the fire with a basin.
"What's wrong. What's wrong," Professor Zhao hurriedly ran over when he heard the voice.
"I don't know where it's on fire. Hurry up and grab a bucket. Liu Junhao explained. Then he strode towards the village.
Just arrived in the village. I saw Liu Laosan running from behind with a bucket. When he saw Liu Junhao, he also asked anxiously, "Where is it on fire?" ”
"I don't know. Could it be in the wheat field? Liu Junhao said as he ran. If the village is on fire, you can see it now. Only the wheat field is blocked by large trees. It's hard to see the bright light.
When they arrived at the entrance of the village, they saw the flames in the direction of the wheat field, and the two of them ran more urgently, and they met many people running in that direction with the guy who put out the fire along the way.
There are twenty or thirty stacks of wheat straw there, and once a fire breaks out, it is difficult to control, and if the southeast wind blows again, the consequences will be unimaginable.
Fortunately, the fire was not big this time, and it was extinguished in less than five minutes. When the fire was extinguished, people began to ask whose straw stacks it was. When I asked about the strange thing, no one had ever piled up wheat stacks in this clearing.
So someone used a handlamp to search for the traces of wheat straw on the ground, and finally found that an old wheat straw stack of Dawazi's family had been moved here.
The wheat stack in his house was left over from the previous year, and it had already been damaged by the rain, so it could not be burned as firewood at all. The big baby was thinking that the wheat stack was in the way, and was about to push it into the ditch to dung, but I don't know who helped do it first.
It must be the children fooling around, and as soon as a few adults tracked down, sure enough, none of the half-grown bear children in the village were missing.
It turned out that these guys had nothing to do after eating, and they ran to the wheat field to play hide and seek, and after playing for a while, they thought it was boring and came up with some new tricks. I don't know who proposed to "burn know" first, but everyone raised their hands in agreement.
So one by one, they went to the wheat field to pull the wheat straw, and at this time, the little baby remembered the matter of his old wheat stack, so he asked his partners to go to his wheat field to get it.
They were purely fed, and they were stunned to empty the wheat straw stack that was more than one person high.
When they heard the sound of the gong in the village, they turned a deaf ear, and they were startled until someone came with a bucket to put out the fire, and they hurriedly burrowed into the woods, and did not even have time to know what had just been burned.
The problem is completely clear, the wheat straw stack of the big baby's family was originally prepared to be dung, so there is no loss. Everyone was completely false alarm, and the adults of several families each reprimanded the child and settled it.
It is a very popular activity for rural children to play in the summer evenings, that is, to build a large fire in the open space next to the woods at night, and when the fire is hot, they will beat it vigorously on the branches with bamboo poles. The ground in the trees knows that they are frightened, and they will scream and fly. Due to the phototaxis of insects, they will pounce like moths when they see the light of fire.
The scene was absolutely hilarious, and groups of intellectuals crashed into the fire. Some plunged headlong into the fire, while others fell by the fire, fluttering and flying all over the ground.
At this moment, you just need to squat on the ground, pick it up one by one, and put it in a small plastic bag, and it doesn't take much effort. In the hottest part of summer, you can get at least a few in one night
However, this kind of old knowledge is generally not eaten, and they are all fed back to the chickens and ducks at home.
Liu Junhao also played this activity when he was a child, but it didn't cause any disturbances in the whole village.
I was about to call Professor Zhao home, but I saw Lao Chang's family standing in the crowd.
Dizzy, in a hurry, I forgot all about the guests.
Liu Junhao hurriedly went over to apologize, and Chang Chang waved his hand again and again to show that he didn't care. He naturally knew that the situation was very urgent at that time, and anyone who encountered such a thing would go to fight the fire first.
When Xiaopi came back with a hare for three days in a row, Liu Junhao began to be confused: Is this guy a little addicted to catching rabbits recently?
In the past, although it used to catch a rabbit from time to time, it was ten days and half a month each time, and it was never as frequent as it is now.
Or the barking puppy in the kennel woke him up, Xiaopi shouldn't have caught a hare to mend the panther's body?
If you think about it carefully, it's really like this, but fortunately, he didn't give less rabbit meat to the black panther in the past two days, and he didn't let this guy be busy in vain.
After cleaning up the hare and pickling it, Liu Junhao continued to surf the Internet. As soon as I opened the transaction page of the online store, another message popped up to buy pillowcases.
When I knitted the hammock two days ago, there was not much left, and it was not enough to weave a pillowcase, and it seemed that I still had to cut some on the river beach.
Thinking of this, Liu Junhao paid attention to the fine hair grass cultivated in the stone lock. When he was mowing grass on the river beach, he secretly dug up a few large grass roots and threw them into the stone locks. At first, he paid attention to them a few times, but then he saw that they were growing quite fast, so he didn't pay much attention to them.
Take a look today, good guys, is this still fine hairgrass? They were much more slender than the ones outside, but they all fell to the ground, as if they had been trampled by something, and they couldn't stand up at all.
If it weren't for their still green, pinching the tender water with his fingernails, Liu Junhao would almost have thought that all of these fine hair grasses were sick.
No, this thing doesn't seem to be able to hold up the wall after being poured with spring water.
He was so disappointed that he tried to pinch two of them with his hands to find out what was going on.
Well? Who knows that after pinching several times in a row, the stem of the fine hair grass was not broken. This is really strange, Liu Junhao suddenly came to his senses. He grabbed a thin hair grass with both hands and rubbed it vigorously, and it took him nearly a minute to break it, but it was also stained with grass juice from both hands.
It's no different, why can't I straighten my waist.
Liu Junhao took out the fine hair grass and studied it carefully after taking it out of the stone lock, but he didn't see what was wrong in the end.
"Uncle Liu, what are you doing with a grass, this fine hair grass is so long" At this time, Xiao Haoyu ran in sweating profusely.
"Long?" Liu Junhao suddenly understood the reason. It turned out that the grass was so long that the roots could not support the weight, so they all fell to the ground.
His heart moved, and he hurriedly shouted: "Haoyu, you also go and pick a grass, let's play grass, okay, I'll use a grass to fight for you." ”
Fighting grass is a small game, and the fighting method is very simple, that is, each side picks ten grass stalks. Then each takes a grass stalk and folds it and wraps it together, and at the same time pulls it hard, and the one that is pulled off loses the grass stem.
The losing side can continue to take another one and compare until the ten grass stems in their hands are completely broken. And at this time, the person who wins will collapse his brain according to how much the opponent loses the grass stem.
Xiao Haoyu is no stranger to fighting grass, and he and Tongtong are also very interested after seeing the hairy child play once. The two little ones often play with grass when they are idle.
However, he usually wins more and loses less, and every time he plays it and cries.
"Okay, okay, I'll go dig the fine hair grass now" As soon as the little guy heard that he was going to fight grass, he immediately became interested, and turned around to run out.
"Come back," Liu Junhao hurriedly stopped him, "You go to those few dried thin hair grasses in the grass basket and let's fight." ”
"Dry fine hair grass! Uncle Liu, don't say I'm bullying you. Of course, Xiao Haoyu knows that the flexibility of fine hair grass is greatly enhanced after drying.
"Don't worry, I won't be religent, or I won't wait for Tongtong to be the referee" said Cao Cao Mengde arrived, and Tongtong happened to appear at the door.
Although Xiao Haoyu is full of confidence, the reality is cruel. When he was pulled off five or six thin hair grasses in a row, he was very unconvinced and compared the rest together.
"Haoyu, you are playing leprosy," Liu Junhao didn't say anything, but Tongtong, the little referee, didn't follow.
"Uncle Liu, where did you get this fine hair grass?" The two fought for a while before they remembered what they were doing.
"Oh...... on the river beach. Liu Junhao was quite surprised by the performance of the thin hair grass in his hand. It's a little too flexible, and it hasn't dried yet.
It's different if it's watered with spring water, and if this thing is woven into a pillowcase, it will be absolutely durable, and maybe it won't fall apart in three or five years
