Chapter Twenty-Three: Eat Meat
Without waiting for Han Lixin to go out to look for it, Chang Yanzhe had already returned, he just went to the edge of the forest to find some medicinal herbs, and did not go far.
"Grandma Han, pick this clean, wash it, cut it into small pieces and find a home stew.
Clear the water, beat an egg into it, and let her eat the egg and drink the soup. Chang Yanzhe gave Mrs. Han the thing with the soil in his hand that looked like the roots of a tree.
"Oh, oh, okay, I'm going to stew." Mrs. Han didn't dare to slack off, so she hurriedly cleaned up the stew.
The wild boar had already been packed up and packed in a large basin or something, and everyone washed their hands and went into the house.
Zhou Lili Zhou Yanyan had already recovered, so she helped her grandmother cook.
It's simple at noon today, heat up the buns they brought, pour out a bowl of meat sauce, pick some cucumbers in the small vegetable garden outside, and pull a few green onions back, it's a very good meal.
The meal was made quickly, and Zhou Tiantian's bowl of medicinal soup and poached eggs were also ready.
Chang Yanzhe didn't use others, and personally cut it off to Zhou Tiantian, "Eat the poached eggs, and drink these soups."
Get some sleep tonight, and tomorrow I'll make sure you're not going to have anything to do. ”
As soon as Zhou Tiantian heard him say so much, he knew that this bowl of soup and poached eggs were not so delicious, "It's very bitter, isn't it?" ”
The soup seems to be very bright and colorless, but Zhou Tiantian understands that if Chang Yanzhe, who has always talked little, can say so much, it means that this bowl of soup must not be delicious.
Chang Yanzhe glanced at Zhou Tiantian, is it so difficult to coax the current baby?
"Well, it's going to be bitter." It's back to its previous state, and there are few words.
Zhou Tiantian knew that this person didn't want to lie and deceive her, no matter how good he said, she was the one who drank the medicine.
Fortunately, she is not a real eight-year-old baby, and she is not afraid of no matter how hard she is. So he took the bowl and drank the soup in one go.
The bitter taste spread from her tongue to her stomach, and she wanted to spit it all out.
"It's bitter." Zhou Tiantian covered her mouth, for fear that she would not hold back and spit out those bitter medicine soups.
Chang Yanzhe looked at Zhou Tiantian, a different color flashed in his eyes, this girl is okay, she didn't cry with such a bitter medicine, and she drank it all in one go.
How did he feel that the girl in front of him was getting more and more wrong, not like the very squeamish little girl in his memory.
Zhou Tiantian was still bitter in her mouth at this time, and she didn't have the heart to look at Chang Yanzhe.
Looking at the poached egg left in the bowl, and then looking at his right foot, Zhou Tiantian took a bite of it.
Fortunately, the eggs are not so bitter, after drinking the bitter medicine soup, this egg with only a little bitter taste on the outside is undoubtedly much better.
Zhou Tiantian took two or three bites, ate the poached eggs, and put the bowl aside.
"Grandma, I don't want to eat anymore, my stomach is full of bitter medicine soup, it's uncomfortable."
How big can an eight-year-old baby's stomach get? After drinking half a bowl of medicinal soup and eating a poached egg, I was already half full.
The most important thing is that those medicines are too bitter, Zhou Tiantian feels uncomfortable in her stomach, and she has no appetite to eat at all.
"Well, then it'll be hot in the pot for you, and when you're hungry and want to eat again." Mrs. Han didn't say anything else.
Her little granddaughter is already very strong, if this is replaced by another child, wouldn't she have cried and refused to forgive?
If you don't eat it, don't eat it, whoever drinks those bitter medicine soups will not have the appetite to eat.
"Yanzhe, come, eat with us, don't gnaw on your dry food." Old Mrs. Han watched Chang Yanzhe take out dry food and nibble, and hurriedly beckoned him to come over for dinner.
The old man Han and Han Lixin and others also greeted Chang Yanzhe warmly, Chang Yanzhe was not hypocritical, so he put back the dry food he brought, sat on the edge of the kang, and ate with everyone.
Zhou Tiantian's foot was injured and she couldn't move, so she could only stay in the house in the afternoon, and as for the others, she should do whatever she wanted to do after eating.
Zhou Lili and Zhou Yanyan tidied up the house, and then went to the river to get the dried bedding and clothes back, and sewed the bedding again.
Mrs. Han was not idle, cleaned the internal organs of the wild boar, put them in the pot together with a few pieces of wild boar, and added seasonings to boil them.
The fire is boiled on low heat and simmered, and it is so grunted in the pot until the evening, the wild boar meat is crispy and delicious, and the fragrance is delicious.
When Han Liwei drove to pick up people after work, Mr. Han put the wild boar meat into a nylon woven bag, and asked Han Liwei and Han Lixin brothers to take it home and send half of it to the Zhou family.
As for the four boys of the Han family, they don't even have to think about it, they definitely won't go home.
Even Chang Yanzhe was forced to stay by Mrs. Han and let him live in the mountains and eat delicious food together at night.
Chang Yanzhe had no choice but to ask Han Lixin to go back and send a letter to the Jiang family, so as not to worry his uncle and aunt.
There was no electricity on the mountain, so dinner couldn't be too late, and it wasn't dark yet, so Mrs. Han opened up to eat.
The fragrant wild boar meat and offal were fished out of the pot, cut or torn and cleaned up.
Some of them were re-stewed, some of them were mixed with ingredients, and with the steamed buns brought from home, a simple but hearty dinner was ready.
"Come, hurry up into the house to eat, Zhen'an, throw a few pine towers to the bottom of the pot, and eat pine nuts after eating."
Mrs. Han led her granddaughter to clean up the meal, beckoned the grandchildren to come into the house to eat, and didn't forget to burn a few pine towers for the children to eat at night.
Han Zhen'an and the others went to the trees to beat a lot of pine towers during the day, so they picked up four or five and threw them at the bottom of the pot.
At this time, there is no open flame at the bottom of the pot, it is all charcoal fire, and the pine tower is buried in the charcoal fire, so it will not burn paste, and it will be cooked just after eating.
There was a table on the kang, and the big guys crowded around the table, looking at the fragrant meat on the table, they were really a little excited.
"We are blessed with sweetness, and we can only have meat to eat, don't worry about it tonight, eat it openly, and eat it as much as you like."
Old Man Han looked at the juniors in front of him, smiled with his eyebrows, and beckoned everyone to eat with chopsticks.
The pork liver, pig heart, and pork tongue were directly cut and dipped in garlic sauce, and the small intestine and large intestine were cleaned up and cooked, and fried with chili peppers, etc., which tasted great.
The wild boar meat is coarse, and it can't be chewed when fried, so it is cooked and torn into shreds, and mixed into a pot with cucumber strips and shredded green onions, etc., and eaten as you like.
People have empty stomachs these days, even if the Han family's life is okay, the children are happy to see these meat dishes.
Now that the old man has spoken, no one cares about that, and they all eat openly.
"Sweet, come and try this cold dish, wild boar meat is best mixed like this." The old lady gave Zhou Tiantian some vegetables and put them in the bowl.
Zhou Tiantian looked at the wild boar in front of him and sighed in his heart. In fact, she wanted to say that these game meats have not been inspected and quarantined, and in fact, they contain a lot of parasites and germs, which are not suitable for consumption.
The words swirled around his lips twice, but finally he couldn't say them.
Now is not the future generations, those people in the future generations have nothing to do when they are full, and they are thinking about how to eat game.
Nowadays, people are still in the stage of trying to get enough food and clothing, no matter what domestic or wild, as long as they can eat, they will definitely not let go, and it is useless to say it.
