Chapter 272: Accustomed to Living a Hard Life (1st Update)

Old Yu's family, Mrs. Yu had already heard from the mouths of the people in the village that Xia Qiqi had exchanged firewood for money, and she was shocked and very happy.

When Xia Qiqi and a group of people entered the courtyard from outside, Mrs. Yu hurriedly came out to greet her.

"Your family is here! Just right, come to dinner! I went to Aunt Wang's house next door to borrow a few eggs, and there was egg custard to eat at night. ”

Xia Qiqi raised the pheasant and hare in his hand.

"Rabbit or pheasant at night, which one does grandma want to eat?" Xia Qiqi asked.

"Oh my God, you guys...... You've even caught rabbits and pheasants! Mrs. Yu couldn't close her mouth in surprise.

Xia Qiqi grinned and asked Mrs. Yu with a smile, "Isn't it amazing?" ”

Mrs. Yu nodded again and again, and the smile on her face could almost pinch out the water, "Amazing, amazing!" Our family is amazing! ”

Rabbits and pheasants are very common, but they are rare in Yujia Village, which does not have half a mountain.

I don't have to eat good things once a year.

What's more, what Xia Qiqi was dragging in his hand was not a pheasant or a rabbit.

Rather, two pheasants, two hares.

Yu Shun looked at Mrs. Yu and said to her with an embarrassed expression: "Mother, this pheasant and hare are made by Qiqi and Ah Jiu!" My fifth brother and I didn't help at all.

By the way, Mother, Qiqi and Ah Jiu'er picked up the firewood today, and sold it for forty-eight yuan, they are amazing! ”

Yu Shun told Mrs. Yu everything.

I don't have the slightest intention of taking credit, but I am also sincere enough.

Yu Fu also praised Xia Qiqi and Lu Jiu beside him, "Mother, Qiqi and Ah Jiu are too powerful, we went up and down the mountain, they cut down several trees, and the firewood was built!" ”

When he said this, the expressions on the faces of the two brothers were admiration.

Xia Qiqi said: "Grandma, don't listen to the nonsense of the two uncles, everyone has done something, and they all have credit!" Speaking of awesome, Ah Jiu is really powerful, I'm only a soy sauce player at most! ”

praised Lu Jiu, Xia Qiqi felt that he could praise a few words.

As for her, forget it, let's keep the cheek for the next time!

In addition to going up the mountain with Lu Jiu, the most she did was to drag hares and pheasants.

This can be done by a fool, and there is nothing to brag about.

"Soy sauce?" When Mrs. Yu heard Xia Qiqi's words, she was stunned for a moment, and asked with a puzzled expression.

"Hehe, it's not really soy sauce, that is, I'm going to join in the fun, I don't have the strength to do anything, the focus is on participation, the emphasis is on participation!" Xia Qiqi explained.

"Alright, don't say who does more and who does less! If you are willing to go, you are all good boys! We eat chicken at noon, and we eat rabbit at night, right? Mrs. Yu asked.

"I'll make the rabbit, dry stir-fried rabbit, dry pot rabbit, braised rabbit meat, whatever you want, you can eat it!" Xia Qiqi said with a courteous face.

"Qiqi makes it, we all love to eat it!" Yu Shundao.

"Qiqi's craftsmanship is good, we don't pick anything, how convenient, how can I come!" Yu Fu Dao.

Xia Qiqi looked at Lu Jiu, "Do you have any opinions?" ”

"Nope! Eat them all! Lu Jiu's words were as concise as ever, but they were unexpectedly a little spoiled.

Xia Qiqi didn't hear it, but knew that everyone had no opinion, and walked to the backyard kitchen with the hare and pheasant.

Pheasants and hares are both things in the mountains, and they don't recognize the owner, so Xia Qiqi found two cages and stuffed the pheasants and rabbits into them.

He left a rabbit, took a knife, and in the yard, skinned the rabbit.

Mrs. Yu watched her skillful technique from the side, and was shocked again.

"Grandma, those two pheasants, why don't you keep them! Raise it for a few days, and when Ah Jiu and I are gone, I will slaughter the pheasant for my grandfather to make up for his body! Xia Qiqi said.

"This can't be done! This is what you have caught, and when you go back, bring it back! Your mother just gave birth, and there are many places to use money, and we have used so much of your silver again, and we have to live the days to come! Mrs. Yu shook her head and disagreed with Xia Qiqi's statement.

"Grandma, silver can be earned! My mother, don't worry, I'm here with Ah Jiu! When I'm done here, I'll go to the town to do business, and then the money will come! Xia Qiqi said.

"You kid, what's the matter...... What's the matter......" Mrs. Yu stomped her feet angrily, she didn't know what to say.

It stands to reason that her granddaughter should be happy if she is good to herself.

But the granddaughter's own conditions are like this, if it is given to them, how can she suffer by herself?

"Grandma, you really don't need to see us, you are good to our whole family, and we should naturally be good to you!

Besides, we are all a family, and what does the family care about? We don't want to do it, just one thing, the family unites and works hard to make a lot of money! Xia Qiqi said.

Hearing this, Mrs. Yu felt a lot more comfortable.

That's it, she doesn't bother herself anymore.

Qiqi is a good boy and will definitely have a good life.

Xia Qiqi saw that Mrs. Yu didn't say anything, got up and carried the skinned rabbit into the stove room, broke open the rabbit's abdomen, internal organs and other things in the abdomen, took it out, put aside what could be eaten, and threw it into the dustpan if it couldn't come out.

Mrs. Yu stood at the door of the stove room, looking at the busy Xia Qiqi, with a relieved smile on her face.

Wash the rabbit, cut the rabbit, and then look for spices, the old Yu family is poor, there are no such things as bay leaf cinnamon star anise, fortunately, dried chili peppers and perilla, garlic and other ordinary objects are available.

Xia Qiqi is also effortless to make dry stir-fried hares.

At noon, Xia Qiqi left enough chicken for Old Man Yu to eat another meal at night, so Xia Qiqi didn't have to consider leaving this dry rabbit meat for Old Man Yu.

She was ruthless, and put a handful of dry spicy seeds in the fried half-cooked rabbit meat pot, and the whole stove room could feel a pungent and choking smell.

Mrs. Yu was defeated and withdrew, leaving Xia Qiqi alone, on the edge of the pot, stir-frying and washing vegetables.

Soon, the sautéed rabbit meat was ready.

Mrs. Yu had already prepared dinner, and Xia Qiqi's dish was considered an add-on, so it didn't take much time for dinner.

Everyone gathered around and looked at the dishes on the table, especially the dry stir-fried rabbit meat, full of two plates, the dry and spicy meat there, and the noisy rabbit meat, which made people feel drooling.

"What are you doing in a daze? Hurry up and eat! Xia Qiqi urged.

"Qiqi, to put it mildly, don't dislike me for not seeing the world, I haven't seen so many delicious food!" Yu Shun said, swallowing his saliva, "I'm a little reluctant to eat!" ”

Although Yu Fu didn't speak, judging from his expression, he had the same thoughts as Yu Shun.

Lao Yu's family, who has been poor all his life, has eaten and drunk well, and has never seen it a few times in his life.

Now, suddenly there is something to eat, and the two Yu Shun brothers don't know how to live the next few days for the first time!
