Chapter Twenty-Eight: Brotherhood
After entering the mountain for most of the day, Song Yao really found a lot of treasures, in addition to cumin, there are wild taro and wild peppers, which are more flavorful than normal planted peppers.
Because of the two little guys, Qinghai's harvest is not much, it's not that he can't hunt, but he can't take so many things, but a stupid roe deer, five pheasants, and two hares are definitely enough for them to eat.
After returning to Zhuangzi, Song Yao asked Qinghai to clean up the game, and Song Yao went into the kitchen to mix seasonings.
Zhuangzi is very large, and there is a pavilion next to the patio in the backyard, which is suitable for dinner, so Song Yao took Song Yuanbao and Yinzi to sit in the pavilion and prepare side dishes, which is actually to shoot a cucumber and mix a cold dish.
As for the barbecue, it was thrown to Qinghai.
"Didn't you say you were going to show your hand? Why am I going to bake it? Qinghai muttered in a low voice, looking at the oily roasted game, and there was not much interest in his heart.
As a secret guard, you spend the most time sleeping in the open air, and roasting game is the best way to improve your food during the mission.
"Mother, didn't you say you wanted a chef? How do you get Uncle Qinghai to barbecue? Song Yuanbao smelled the aroma of barbecue and couldn't help swallowing his saliva, but as a foodie, he knew very well that the food made by his wife was a must.
"He's just doing some prelude work, and the most critical thing is for your wife and me to go out personally." Song Yao whistled, looked up at the already golden barbecue, picked up the seasoning without hurry, and walked towards Qinghai, "It's hard work, just leave the rest to me." ”
Qinghai twitched the corners of his mouth, he has already finished the good felling?
Song Yao sat in the position he had just done in Qinghai, holding the handle of the wooden frame in one hand and sprinkling the seasoning on the game in the other.
Soon, the heated cumin emits a fragrant aroma.
After roasting for a while, Song Yao sprinkled sesame seeds and sprinkled chili noodles on a roasted rabbit, and the spicy taste spread through the courtyard.
"It's split into two, why don't you have to teach you without me?" Song Yao handed the two roasted hares to Qinghai without raising his head.
"No, no, how dare Mrs. Lao teach." Qinghai is also a proper foodie, just by smelling the taste, you know how delicious this barbecue with dry tea will be.
Song Yuanbao pulled the silver and followed the barbecue like a fart, I don't know how many times he swallowed his saliva.
Song Yao took over the work of roasting the roe deer meat, and when she saw Qingshan coming over at this time, she beckoned to him.
The two brothers are somewhat similar in appearance, but their aura and personality are completely different, Qingshan is indifferent and rarely spoken, and Qinghai loves to laugh and talk a little.
"Found?" Knowing Aoyama's temperament, he won't come back without results.
"The son of the ranch steward owes a debt to the gambling house, and some of the livestock are sold by him to pay off the debt." Aoyama replied.
Song Yao asked some more information, and Qingshan gave a brief answer to everything he knew.
After understanding the ins and outs of the matter, Song Yao raised her eyebrows and motioned for Qingshan to sit in her place, "Roast until golden brown, and then call me." ”
Qingshan nodded, and people who didn't talk much didn't know how to refuse.
Song Yao came to the pavilion and saw Qinghai with a rabbit leg in one hand, gnawing on a mouth full of oil, and said with disgust: "You look like you haven't eaten meat for hundreds of years, it's really embarrassing." ”
"People live for a lifetime, eat, drink, laze and sleep, eat and enjoy eating, regardless of what others think." Qinghai replied unconcernedly, and saw Song Yao tearing off a rabbit leg and chewing slowly, only to realize that he had exceeded the rules as a subordinate.
The master hasn't eaten yet, how can he move his mouth first?
The point was that there were four legs in total, and he took two.
"Madame's barbecue stunt is really unheard of, and the subordinates are rude." Qinghai wiped his mouth, reluctantly looked at the rabbit leg in his hand and said, "This is for my eldest brother, and Mrs. will eat it slowly." ”
"Take the rest over, I'll want to eat some roe deer meat later." Song Yao pointed to the remaining rabbit body and said.
Two big men, one person and one rabbit are not enough, Song Yao doesn't want to treat his subordinates badly.
Song Yuanbao's eating is not much better than Qinghai's, and the silver is eaten more than Swen, and at a glance, you can know that people who have learned the rules since childhood.
But Song Yao didn't want to restrain his son, as long as he could understand the occasion, it was still acceptable to eat a little rougher.
After eating the rabbit leg, Song Yao grabbed a handful of peanuts and chewed them slowly, but in her heart, she was thinking about Qingshan's report and wondering how to deal with this matter.
Now is the construction period of Zhuangzi, once someone leaks the news, someone will soon follow suit, and she will not make much money at that time.
Over there, Qinghai was eating rabbit meat, chatting with Qingshan, glancing into the dark from time to time, and shaking the food in his hand.
Someone calculates their brothers, but they have to secretly envy their good luck at the moment, so they can only steal some cold steamed buns, and at most go to the mountains in the middle of the night to make a game and make a tooth sacrifice, which is really retribution.
Besides, the three chief stewards are discussing at the ranch at the moment, how to give Song Yao an explanation.
Although the three of them are not brothers, but they fled together at that time, the relationship is very good, the three families settled in this Zhuangzi, although they did not sell themselves into slavery, but they have always served together for a host, although they can only solve the problem of food and clothing in front of them, but for them who fled, it is best to live a stable life in one place.
"Second child, your kid is not bad by nature, and he is also capable, this time he was calculated, so he will be involved in gambling, we can't ignore him." The chief steward frowned.
"The eldest brother is right, the three of us have taken root here together, how can we watch our nephew be cut off? Second brother, as long as we bite this matter and don't change our words, the owner won't find out, how much ability can she have as a woman? The farm steward snorted.
"Third child, let's talk about conscience, but we begged the owner to keep us. Although the proprietor is a woman, she is a person who does great things, and the changes in Zhuangzi, don't we have a number in our hearts? The chief steward reprimanded, sat cross-legged on the ground, glanced at the third child, and continued: "This time, we are sorry for the owner, and we will work well for the owner in the future, find a way to make up for this loss, and then admit our mistakes with the owner." ”
"It's all my little rabbit who is in trouble, how can you both be implicated?" The ranch steward said angrily, slapped it on the head vigorously, and said hatefully: "You should not know about this, I will go back and ask the owner for the guilt, and I will sell myself to the owner as a slave in the future. ”
"Dick!"
"Second brother!"
"Don't talk about it, I've been thinking about this for a while, so I decided." The ranch steward patted his leg, stood up and said, "How did we get here?" How many people are missing from the family along the way? No matter how good our friendship is, you have to think about your family, if you still think about the love of your buddies, when our family is driven out of Zhuangzi, I hope you can take care of it for a while, and then come back to repay me after I find a way out. ”
After the ranch steward finished speaking, he turned around and walked towards the main courtyard where Song Yao lived.
The chief steward and the farm steward glanced at each other, and both understood what the other party was thinking, and they also got up and followed.
