Peeling and picking up such a thing as a bamboo rat is naturally handled by Xu Jiang, and the bamboo rat skin is also peeled off like a rabbit skin and put aside, and then soaked in caustic soda for a while to remove the meat and dry.

After picking up the two bamboo rats, Xu Jiang straightened up and took a breath, and picked up the remaining six bamboo rats on the ground.

Now that the weather is getting hotter, if the dead prey is not picked up as soon as possible, I am afraid that it will be damaged again.

He Mai took out a bamboo rat that had been picked up and put it on the board, chopped it into pieces, half of it was carefully wiped with salt, sprinkled with some sauce and onion and garlic foam to taste, and the other half was hurriedly passed through the water and served on the plate.

Put sugar in the pot and burn it, put the blanched meat into the pot, pour the sauce to color, season the ginger and garlic, and finally add a firewood to the stove to make the fire hot, and the juice can be out of the pot.

The other half of the bamboo rat meat is slowly fried over a simmer, and when the skin is browned, pour the potatoes on the side of the board into it, add the sauce, stir-fry it quickly on high heat, and add some water.

When the two dishes are out of the pot, the rice is steamed, and a total of eight bamboo rats in the yard are also cleaned.

Qin Shi came out of the house and saw the two plates in He Mai's hand and opened his mouth.

He Mai smiled: "Milk, I'm afraid that you won't eat it, so I fried extra papaya slices of meat - it's pork!" ”

Xu Jiang shook his head and said: "Grandma Lin, if you taste a piece of bamboo rat meat, you will know what it means to give a fairy and not change it, you can taste it, and you will not be able to stop chopsticks!" ”

On the table, He Mai first sandwiched a piece for Qin's family, and then asked Xu Jiang to take care of himself, then put the meat in the bowl, and did not forget to throw a piece to Xiao Hei on the ground before eating.

"Is it delicious?" Xu Jiang looked at her expectantly and asked.

He wheat tasted it carefully, not to mention, this meat is really more tender and sweet than pork! Even if you don't cook much, you still have a unique taste!

No wonder, the price of bamboo rats purchased by the restaurant that day was higher than the price of wild boar and roe deer meat!

He Mai nodded again and again: "It's delicious, it's delicious...... Well, grandma, you can taste a piece, or I'm afraid this pot will be wiped out by the two of us in a while......"

Qin took a bite and smacked his lips, "Well, it's better than pork!" ”

Xiao Hei on the ground ate a piece and saw that no one cared about it anymore, he was sad and snorted, He Mai threw down a piece of meat with bones and skin, Xiao Hei whined and ran out with the meat in his mouth.

"Where did you get this bamboo rat?" Xu Jiang was curious while nibbling on meat, "Why didn't I know that there was such a place in Xiaoqing Village?" ”

He Mai thought for a moment, "Didn't you say that bamboo rats eat bamboo?" Is there a large bamboo forest at the foot of the mountain to the east? I guess it must be there? ”

Rokuro and she sometimes come down from the foot of the mountain in the east when they go up the mountain in the morning, but neither of them cares about the bamboo forest, let alone the movement in the bamboo forest.

Xu Jiang suddenly realized, "Yes! Oops, such a delicious thing in Xiaoqing Village, I haven't even found out, it's a sin, a sin! ”

He hurriedly slapped his head again, "Hey, such a delicious thing, when Liulang comes back, I have to ask him to go with me to catch some," he smiled at Hemai, "Hemai, when this bamboo rat catches your stew, don't forget to call me one." ”

He Mai smiled, "Okay." ”

After Xu Jiang finished eating, he took out a few pieces of skin soaked in caustic soda, shaved the flesh and bones, and dried them under the eaves. I don't know when Rokuro will be back, so he can only do this work for him.

As soon as Xu Jiang left, the Qin family walked into the stove room, looked at He Mai at the door for a while, and suddenly asked, "What kind of medicine did Xu Langzhong bring for you?" ”

He Mai was stunned for a moment, and then replied: "Give me the tonic medicine." ”

"Tonics?" The two words that Qin Shi spit out implied joy, "Hemai, you, you and Liulang are ready to have a baby?" ”

"Huh?" He Mai was dumbfounded, "No, no, grandma......"

"No wonder these days you keep talking about making more money, you were planning to have a baby!" Qin slapped his thigh violently, and the wrinkles on his face were happily scattered into a smile, "Okay, okay, I'm going to be a grandmother!" ”

"Grandma'......"

He Mai couldn't cry or laugh, looking at Qin's back and forth, he began to tell her the precautions before preparing for pregnancy, this period of hard work can not be heavy, if you have a baby, you can have a good life.

He Mai couldn't bear to interrupt the old man's joy, so he had to agree.

Hey, she's still a big yellow girl, and she hasn't even talked to anyone, so which child are you going to get pregnant?

……

……

In the past few days when Liulang was away, Hemai didn't say anything, and he was always worried about it in his heart.

Especially in the dead of night, the courtyard and the courtyard are immersed in the moonlight, and the quiet atmosphere tempts the thoughts in her heart to slowly grow, sprout, and climb vines......

For three nights, Hemai closed his eyes and was full of Liulang's figure.

Why haven't you come back? It's been four days and three nights.

He Mai counted on her fingers, and when she ran out of one hand, she couldn't sit still.

Yang Liulang hasn't been back for five days.

Last time, Liulang went for three days and two nights, and she was absent-minded when she came back after a delay and the next day, not to mention that this time there has been no news for five days.

What's more, the dry food he brought with him was enough to last four days at most.

Why haven't you come back?

Xu Jiang was still able to hold his breath and said to He Mai: "Liulang is not an ordinary person, just a beast, and there is no prey that can subdue Liulang!" Wait for another day, if he doesn't come back tomorrow, I'll take my brothers up the mountain to find it! ”

He Mai felt a little relieved, so he waited patiently for another day.

But on the sixth day, Yang Liulang still didn't come back.

This time, Xu Jiang couldn't sit still anymore, and went to the town to greet Ma Ertian Dacheng and them, and more than a dozen people went up the mountain to find Liulang together.

What a big mountain.

There is still a mountain behind the mountain, and looking at the mountain that stretches in the past, who knows where Rokuro is staying in now?

Who knows if he's on the mountainside, or on the top of the mountain, or in a cave?

The project to find someone is too huge, and He Mai also wants to go with her, but Xu Jiang and Ma Er both persuaded her to stay, if Liulang comes back, she can rest assured, isn't it?

He sat at home, looking forward from the second day to the dark, and from the dark to the dawn.

There are countless possibilities about Rokuro in her mind, and no matter which one is good or bad, she gradually discovers an incredible fact: she likes Yang Rokuro.

I like it to the bones.

I like him so much that I can't see him, I can't eat well, I can't drink, and I can't sleep at night.

It turns out that she already likes someone so much.

She looked worriedly at the mountains outside the mountain, and a bad omen gradually floated in her heart: Liulang, I'm afraid something has happened.

……

……

On the eighth day, Xu Jiang and his party carried a blood-stained man down the mountain.

The last thing He Mai wanted in his heart happened.

That person is Rokuro.
