It didn't take long for Chen Zui to bring back the two chickens covered in mud and throw them directly into the burning kiln. Those sweet potatoes are still on the sidelines.

They can now understand that the two chickens will have to be burned for a longer time, and if they throw the sweet potatoes in now, when the chickens are ready, it is estimated that the sweet potatoes will be almost half burned. Of course, you can also take it out halfway, but the fire is getting more and more intense, which is unsafe and very troublesome and inconvenient, so it is better to wait until it is about the same time to throw it in.

They burned for about an hour, picking up two more firewoods in between, and when the last batch of firewood was put in, Chen Zui threw all the sweet potatoes into the kiln. After fifteen more minutes of burning up and down, keeping everyone farther away, swish, the left foot kicked violently, and the stone shelf collapsed in half, and then changed angles, and with another kick, it completely collapsed, burying all their food under the blackened stones, in the ashes.

Even Chen Zui was secretly happy that his foot strength had improved so much in the training last semester, and at this time last year, he had to kick three or four times to make it completely collapse.

Duan Shaoling said that the waiting time was almost an hour, which was not shorter than the time they burned. It was a little past before they remembered that everyone hadn't eaten lunch yet. I don't want to be okay, this thought, I feel hungry in my stomach, oranges are full of water, and if I eat too much, I can only discharge the portion, and I can't be full.

After another half an hour, Chen Zui teased it with a wooden stick, and a few sweet potatoes rolled out of the remaining flames, already burning black. "It's better for the two chickens to wait for another half an hour, this sweet potato must be ripe, let's wait while eating." Chen Zui set aside five, and it happened that one of them padded his stomach first.

The two boys were still very gentlemanly to help the three girls peel off the burnt skin, leaving only a small section of the tail, at this time the three girls could not care about whether their hands were clean or not, so they could only follow the local customs.

The sweet potato alone is as sweet as honey when it smells, it looks not burnt or mushy, just right, and when you bite into it, it is fragrant and silky, and the taste is incisive, and I have been hungry for so long that I can't even take care of the appearance, and I eat the sweet potato until only the tail is left.

They have always given people the feeling of nobility and elegance, and it was the first time Duan Shaoling had seen them disregard their image so much, so in order to eat a piece of roasted sweet potato, he said: "Don't worry, there are still in it, I brought a total of twelve." He smiled again: "Do you know that the way you ate sweet potatoes just now is funny and cute, if other students know that you have such a side, do you think they will be surprised?" ”

Leng Chu said encycically: "If you were someone else, we wouldn't have come." ”

Zou Baoer said: "This sweet potato is sweet and full-lasting, I can eat one, I still keep my stomach to eat roast**." ”

Zou Bao'er is not the only one who thinks so, they all only ate one sweet potato, and sat on the side together waiting for the roast chicken.

After another twenty minutes, Chen Zui first removed all the stones on it and pulled out all the food inside. The flames had burned to ashes, and gray smoke was faintly emerging. The soil on the two roast chickens is no different from the black charcoal, and if they were still in front of others, no one would have imagined that there would be a chicken wrapped in them.

The three girls all wanted Chen to quickly crack open the dirt on it, eager to know what it was like inside.

Chen Zui searched for a clean stone next to him, and knocked it hard, only to hear a heavy muffled snort, and the performance suddenly opened a few cracks. Chen Zui directly broke it with his hand again, the mud fell off completely, the lotus leaves were intact, and the chicken inside would not be damaged.

Chen Zui was not in a hurry to open the lotus leaf and smashed the other one. Then let Duan Shaoling open the lotus leaves, walk to a stream in front of the cornfield and wash his hands first. The rest of the people's hands were not very clean, and when they heard that there was a stream in front of them to wash their hands, they walked over together.

Everyone washed their hands and came back, Chen Zui and Duan Shaoling each opened one, slowly lifted the lotus leaves on the surface, and in an instant, the rich and tangy fragrance of the chicken came straight to the face, which was also mixed with the faint taste of the lotus leaves, making the smell of the chicken less greasy and more fragrant.

The smell penetrated everyone's spleen and stomach, and they had all eaten a sweet potato at the bottom, and they were so hungry that they couldn't wait.

Looking at the salivating greed of several girls, Chen Zui smiled and said, "You can eat it now, what part do you want to eat, I'll tear it off for you?" ”

Zou Bao'er said politely: "I want to eat chicken wings, Shaoling, can you tear them off for me?" ”

"Okay." Duan Shaoling first tore off a small lotus leaf, wrapped the chicken wings and pulled it, and the entire right wing of the chicken was torn off and handed to Zou Bao'er's hand.

Zou Bao'er took it happily and took a bite, the skin was slightly crispy, the meat was silky and tender, delicious and delicious, and praised while eating: "It's delicious, it's really delicious, you guys should choose it quickly." ”

Chen Zui asked them, "Tell me which piece you want to eat." "They have eaten together a lot, but I haven't seen them love any food, so I should ask their opinions.

Leng Chuxian said: "This big project is all contributed by the two of you, you still choose what you want to eat first, you don't need to take care of us, it doesn't matter which piece we eat." ”

Duan Shaoling said: "Chu Xian is so considerate, Chen Zui and I often build a kiln to roast chicken together, and we have eaten a lot, you don't need to be so polite when you come to play for the first time." ”

Li Chengjing said: "Let's each of us have a chicken leg."

They each tore a chicken leg and gave it to them.

The crowd sat together and divided the two chickens. Chen Zui likes to eat chicken heads and feet, while Duan Shaoling likes the part of the chest with bones and does not like to eat whole meat. Li Chengjing and Zou Baoer both love to eat leg wings, and everyone's tastes are not conflicting. Only Leng Chuxian had the smallest appetite, and she was almost full after eating a chicken leg, but Li Chengjing still took her to eat two more pieces of breast meat.

No matter how delicious the chicken is, it is still a little greasy, but fortunately, there are sweet oranges to relieve the greasyness. Everyone had a full meal, indescribably satisfied, and the three girls sighed that this meal was better than any delicacies of the mountains and seas they had eaten before.

"If you want to eat, you can come every day these days."

Zou Bao'er said: "I will get tired of it every day." ”

Li Chengjing said: "Bao'er is right, no matter how beautiful things are, you can't enjoy them too much at once. Let's keep this feeling for the first time and go back and savor it slowly. ”

Zou Bao'er asked again: "Then what should we do in the remaining days?" ”

Duan Shaoling said, "Let's finish the day first, there will always be things to do every day, sometimes no matter how much you think about it, your plan can't catch up with the changes." ”

After resting for a while, it was past four o'clock, and none of the remaining seven sweet potatoes had been touched, and they were still full and could not eat any more. Duan Shaoling put the sweet potatoes back into the original bag and packed them away.

They had been standing outside the door just now, not entering. Now when I walked in, it was quiet inside, and I didn't see Daddy Chen. Chen Zui said that his father would go up the mountain to herd cattle at this time, and he would not go down until dusk.

Chen Zui's house couldn't be simpler, the living room was just the front door to enter, an old elm table was placed, and the cooking stove was next to the back door. On the other side were large and small wine jars, and they also saw a wine vat, large enough to accommodate a person. And all the things they could see, all the things that were placed here, were so old.

Li Chengjing thought of Chen Zui's birth, and pointed to the big wine tank, "Is that wine tank where you were born?" ”

"yes, that's where I popped out."

Zou Bao'er hadn't heard this story and was taken aback, "What popped out?" How did you pop out? ”

Leng Chuxian explained Chen Zui's interesting birth in the most concise and clear language in a low voice, and Zou Baoer also giggled.

In addition to the outside, the rest is the bedroom on the left and right, with Daddy Chen on the right and Chen Zui on the left. It was inconvenient for them to go to see Daddy Chen's bedroom, so they went to Chen's bedroom together. Chen Zui's bedroom had nothing but a wooden wardrobe, a wooden bed, a table, and the things he had played with in the closet, no books, no clock.

Whether it is the outside or the bedroom, it is the same simple, and it is so clean and tidy, revealing the simple and unpretentious nature of the owner's home.

Hearing the sound of footsteps entering the door outside, it was Daddy Chen coming back, they came out and saw Daddy Chen, "Daddy Chen." ”

Father Chen smiled on his simple and weathered face, "I know you won't come down to eat in the afternoon, so let's stay and have a meal together in the evening." I'm going to do it, and Chen Zui came over to help. Father Chen walked to the kitchen as he spoke, and Chen Zui followed over to help, and they had no intention of leaving, so they went over and sat down together to wait.

Chen was drunk on the side, washing and scrubbing, Daddy Chen turned his back to them, and only heard the sound of chopping and chopping on the cutting board. After Chen Zui finished washing, he walked out with two empty baskets, and after a while, he heard the sound of water outside, and through the door, he saw Chen Zui washing vegetables.

Li Chengjing stood up and walked out the door. After a while, they saw the two of them washing vegetables together. When Zou Bao'er turned around, she saw a faint and melancholy look flashing in Leng Chuxian's eyes, and she never forgot about Chen Zui.

In fact, Zou Baoer didn't think that Chen Zui and Li Chengjing could really stay together on a smooth road, because Li Chengjing's identity was not something that ordinary people could approach and accept. It's nothing yet, and after they graduate, whether the road ahead can be done well depends on their creation.

Seeing Li Chengjing's attitude in the morning, Zou Baoer knew that she was aware of this, but it was not yet time to face it. From this point of view, it is not completely impossible for Leng Chuxian and Chen Zui, both of them are her friends, and Zou Bao'er can only keep these thoughts in her heart.

After washing the dishes, Li Chengjing sat back, and Chen Zui continued to help in the kitchen. After more than half an hour, a few simple peasant stir-fry dishes were placed on the table, and Chen Zui brought a plate with a few bowls of hot sweet potato and white porridge on it.

After finishing the work, Father Chen also sat down, "There is nothing to entertain in the countryside, you will eat it." ”

"Daddy Chen is too polite."

The porridge is light, and it has the sweetness of sweet potatoes, and the fried vegetables are not greasy or greasy, just right to eat. Fortunately, they didn't go back to Duan's house for dinner, it's not that Duan's family is not delicious, it's just that they just ate such greasy roast chicken in the afternoon, and then eat those big fish and meat in the evening, which is not as delicious as this porridge and side dishes.

Father Chen just kept urging them to eat more, but other than that, he rarely spoke, he was not good at talking, and he was not as knowledgeable as Master Duan, from the time it was served to the end of dinner, the banquet was a little quieter.
