Chapter 64: Good Wine and Hospitality
At this time, Xiao Jin flew back screaming, and the attention of the three of them immediately shifted.
With a "plop", Xiao Jin threw down a mallard duck at the door of the hall.
As soon as the wild duck was freed, it was ready to fly, and Xiao Jin immediately flapped his wings, and the wild duck was stunned again.
Duan Huan hurriedly stepped forward and held down the duck, and immediately picked up the wings of the wild duck to take a look.
This wild duck is quite fat, it has to weigh four or five pounds, and I don't know how Xiao Jin brought his heavy prey home.
"Zuzu, look! Kim hits back a wild duck! Duan Huan carried the wild duck and reported to Grandpa Xu in the kitchen.
When the two teenagers saw Xiao Jin, they immediately couldn't sit still, it was the first time they had seen such a fierce and hunting big bird, which was completely different from the parrot starlings they saw in the capital.
They were both about to get close to Xiao Jin, wanting to take a closer look, but unfortunately Xiao Jin's temper was not so good to everyone.
He Chongyang tiptoed closer, and was ready to touch Xiaojin's hair.
Xiao Jin immediately blew his hair, stretched his neck and was ready to peck He Chongyang's outstretched hand.
"Kim!" Seeing Xiao Jin's movements, she immediately stopped it: "Xiao Jin come here!" ”
Xiao Jin's current IQ is like that of a six or seven-year-old doll, and he can understand most of people's movements and language.
It glared at He Chongyang fiercely before running happily on its two legs.
He Chongyang felt that his heart had suffered 10,000 critical blows, and it was understandable that this big bird did not like people.
But what about that disdainful and fierce warning look it had just had?
Duan Huan squatted down and touched Xiao Jin's head, and talked to it, "Xiao Jin is really capable!" The wild duck that came back today is fat and big, and it must be delicious! ”
Xiao Jin enjoyed the caress of the joy, and pushed the palm of the hand as usual, and then smoothed the hair with its curved mouth.
Such an interaction stunned a room of people except Grandpa Xu.
He Chongyang: What about the ferocious big bird that was good, is it just a matter of being fierce to the master?
He Chongjiu: I can't see that the little girl is soft and cute, but the pets are different.
He Liangping: Lao Xu's great-granddaughter is really not as simple as it seems! There is personality!
Guard 1: I haven't seen a golden eagle for many years, but this golden eagle is a little different from what they raised on the grassland, it looks more energetic, and you can understand orders without a whistle.
Guard 2: General Xu has a really big heart, such a small girl dares to play with the eagle, but this eagle's hunting ability is good, and such a big duck can be brought back.
Duan Huan played with Xiaojin for a while, and then said to He Chongyang:
"Brother Chongyang! Just scared you, didn't you? Xiao Jin is very wary of the living, fortunately I didn't peck you just now, Xiao Jin will definitely see blood in one bite! ”
"It's okay, it's okay, I'm just a little curious when I see it for the first time!" He Chongyang immediately shook his head, he still had palpitations in his heart, where did he dare to provoke.
Grandpa Xu took the wild duck and said to everyone with a smile:
"Xiao Jin is a wild duck specially caught by seeing that there are guests today,
Today we can be blessed, this wild duck is estimated to be hunted in the mountains,
The wild ducks on the river beach outside have been caught in recent years! ”
The guard next to him hurriedly took over and prepared to kill the duck, but he couldn't interfere with the work on the stove at all.
The lunch meal is still very rich with guests, and the guests in Sichuan Province pay attention to face, and generally make good materials that can be served at home into dishes and serve them on the table.
So although it is a special period now, it is normal for Grandpa Xu to cook so many dishes.
Roasted wild duck with dried bamboo shoots, bacon and garlic sprouts back to the pot, cold pepper sesame chicken, white braised beef tendon, stewed belly strips with green bamboo shoots, smoked rabbit, crispy peanuts, stir-fried spinach.
The eyes of the two guards and the two teenagers were straight, and the dishes on the table looked to be good-looking, fragrant and fragrant.
Grandpa Xu took off his apron, beckoned everyone to go to the table and move chopsticks, and gave Duan Huan a look.
I immediately realized in my heart, didn't I just want wine?
What is the most carp space now, it must be wine.
When I'm bored, when I can't sleep at night, I spend all my time on sake brewing.
Huan Huan went to the kitchen, brought out a jar of wine, took a small hammer to break the mud seal at the mouth of the altar, carefully removed the lid, and instantly the aroma of wine overflowed the whole hall.
"Okay, Lao Xu! No wonder you say retreat, don't hesitate at all, dare to really live the days of the gods! He Liangpin snorted and said exaggeratedly.
Grandpa Xu poured a bowl for him, "If you have wine, drink it, don't fix these crooked things!" ”
Seeing that the two guards and the young man were all stunned and wanted to drink, Duan Huan simply moved two small jars of rice wine from the house.
Grandpa Xu also opened the altar, and a jar was placed on each side of the table, "This is rice wine, there is no degree, you can also mean it!" ”
The two guards and the two teenagers quickly stood up and thanked them before they began to pour their own wine.
Northerners drink a lot of alcohol, and many boys drink liquor at a young age.
I enjoy the soft and sweet taste of the sake I brew, and I don't get on the top after drinking, but it is this that makes it easier to drink more.
After a while, the guards had to drive back, and the two teenagers were still dolls after all, and it was obviously not feasible to drink liquor.
However, there is rice wine to drink, which is already considered good.
It took a long time to drink and eat, and it took three hours for the two old men to finish drinking, and the dishes on the table were cleaned clean, and then the guards went to the kitchen to order two bowls of noodles, and after eating the noodles, they were considered full.
Because He Liangping had to rush back to the provincial capital in the evening, he took a short rest after eating and was ready to leave.
Grandpa Xu packed up a few strips of bacon, air-dried pheasants and hares and packed them as a return gift.
"Lao Xu! If you send these, you might as well give me some wine just now! He Liangping was very satisfied with the wine he drank at noon, and felt that it was smoother than Moutai.
Grandpa Xu said with a smile: "I can't be the master of the wine at home, it's all Xiao Yu'er learned to brew by himself!" ”
As soon as there is an opportunity to praise his great-granddaughter, Grandpa Xu will not let it go.
Duan Huan hurriedly entered the room and moved two three-pound wine jars out, "Grandpa He, there are only the last three jars left, give you two jars to take away, and the remaining jar has to be left for my ancestors to drink!" ”
Two of the three altars were given to the guests to show respect, and one altar was left for Grandpa Xu because of filial piety.
This satisfied everyone present.
As soon as the guard hurriedly took the jar, he held it in his arms like a baby, and brought it back, maybe one day the chief would share it with himself.
The aroma of the wine just now made the gluttonous worms in his stomach churn violently.
After packing up the wine and bacon and other return gifts, the guards urged He Liangping to get into the car, and the two old men still said goodbye, the friendship of colleagues tempered by years of artillery fire, now the two of them are old, and they see one side and one side less.
Thinking of the big movement that Duan Huan said, Grandpa Xu couldn't help but pull He Liangping over and say a few words.
He knew that his old comrade-in-arms had a strong temperament, but since no one could avoid the disaster, he would be careful and low-key, and he would always suffer less.
He Liangping looked incredulous, "Lao Xu, can't this be a joke?" ”
"You old boy, can I make a joke about this?
Nothing is more important than having your family neatly organized, isn't it?
Don't carry it when you encounter something, you still have to seize the opportunity when it's time to move forward! Grandpa Xu spoke earnestly to his old comrades-in-arms.
"Okay, I'll listen to you! We often write when we have time! Good bye! He Liangping boarded the car and prepared to leave.
Grandpa Xu watched the red flag car all the way to the invisible, and then went home with joy.
The little dolls also dispersed at this time, and the cars drove away, and there was nothing unusual to see.
