Then Li used the lean meat he bought or the wild vegetables at home to stir-fry another pot, and the two pots of vegetables were baked, and the sorghum rice mixed with the rice and dry rice over there were almost steamed.

Just at this time, the old man came back, and the family of four gathered around the stone table in the courtyard to eat.

It may be that the smell of meat has not appeared in the village for a long time, and a child has been attracted during the meal.

It was a boy who looked like he was only three years old, Jiang Xi had heard from the Li family, this is the youngest child in the village now, he is very clever, except for the Zhou family, the whole village likes him very much.

The little boy came over, looked at them with big longing eyes, and swallowed.

Jiang Xi smiled and picked out the quick pork liver with chopsticks and gave it to him.

"To eat this or not?"

The little boy immediately nodded, picked it up with his hand and fed it to his mouth, and after eating, he said, "It's so delicious, I've never eaten anything so delicious." ”

In a word, the four people who were eating were a little emotional.

The child jumped away after asking for two more pieces, looking at his thin back, Jiang Xi remembered Li's words.

In the village, almost all the younger ones went out, and they couldn't marry a daughter-in-law or have a baby if they stayed in the mountains. Those girls were married off early in the morning.

Only the Zhou family has married two daughters-in-law in the past two years, and I don't know what's going on, but they haven't given birth to children.

In the end, it's still a poor word.

After lunch, Jiangxi mentioned to the Li family about going to Houshan to pick grapes. Li Shi hurriedly stopped: "Xi'er, didn't that thing say that you can't eat it anymore?" Why are you still going? ”

Jiang Xi whispered two sentences in Li's ear.

"Really?" Li looked at her daughter a little uncertainly, but Jiang Xi's determined face still made her let go of her doubts.

"Forget it, my mother will accompany you to take a look. The land in the left and right family was sold to your father last year, and my mother had nothing to do. But you have to promise your mother that you can't be greedy for that thing anymore. ”

Jiang Xi immediately raised his little hand: "I promise!" ”

The two of them took the sack at home and walked towards the back mountain together.

Jiangxi's house is in the innermost part of the village, and they don't have to pass by other people's houses to go to the back mountain, so no one pays attention until they come back from picking wild grapes in the afternoon.

When he came back, Jiangxi found that there was already a row of wine jars in the courtyard.

The old man heard the sound and walked out.

"You can be regarded as back, not long after you left today, someone brought this thing, and said that you ordered it, so I asked him to put it in the yard. By the way, the eldest daughter-in-law of the Zhou family saw it and said that she wanted to take one to make a sauerkraut jar, but I didn't agree, saying that it didn't look like pickled cabbage. ”

Jiang Xi immediately gave the old man a thumbs up.

"Master, you are awesome, we can be of great use to this thing, whether the family can live a better life in the future depends on it, but you can't give it to others."

There are about 20 jars in total, and they must not be placed in the courtyard. If nothing else, I am afraid that rainwater will enter the sake brewing or be taken away by someone with unclean hands and feet.

Of course, the family with unclean hands and feet will not be other families in the village, except for the eldest daughter-in-law of the Zhou family, no one in this village has that habit.

"You said you were looking for a place to put it? What is the cellar like? The old man suddenly spoke, Jiang Xi's eyes lit up, it would be better if there was a cellar, it would be better than putting it in the house.

"Master, we have a cellar?"

"You kid, you still played in it last year, why didn't you forget it." As he spoke, the old man walked towards the side of the house, "Come, come and have a look." ”
