Chapter 8: The Whole Village Gathering
Everyone's admiring eyes turned to Gao Liang, and Gao Liang helplessly held his forehead.
This little girl's ability to open her eyes and tell nonsense is really good.
Aunt Ma on the side smiled silently, no matter who caught him, anyway, tonight is the New Year.
It's been a long time since I've eaten pork, let alone wild boar.
With the help of neighbors, the wild boar was finally carried to the yard of Shen Xiaoya's house.
Everyone's attention was on the wild boar, and no one paid attention to why it was carried to Shen Xiaoya's house, after all, her house was the closest to the back mountain.
The wild boar is dead, and the next step is to deal with it professionally.
Shen Xiaoya looked at Aunt Ma and looked at each other, obviously neither of them would know, and the two of them set their eyes on Gao Liang: You will definitely be!
Gao Liang took a deep breath, "I'll send the sheep back to the brigade first, and then I'll get it when I come back." ”
When Shen Xiaoya heard him say that he was back, she instantly raised the corners of her mouth: "Don't worry, wait for you!" ”
The neighbors are getting more and more around, this is a wild boar! Mom, that's enough for how many people to eat!
I just don't know if I can give them a point, even if it's a pig in the water!
At this time, no one cared who caught the wild boar, and no one cared whether to keep a distance from Gaoliang.
At the moment, it is not as alluring as this wild boar.
Shen Xiaoya looked at the neighbors around her and knew what they were thinking.
Anyway, they can't eat that much themselves, and the weather is getting hotter, and if they spoil it, they will be blind.
After thinking about it, he whispered to Aunt Ma beside him:
"Aunt Ma, this wild boar is quite big, you two have a lot of family when you come back, take more, my family is just the two of us, don't need too much."
"You see so many people watching, can't we eat alone, or let's stew a big pot of dishes today, and share a bowl for each family, okay?"
Aunt Ma didn't expect Shen Xiaoya to let her share more with Gao Liang, after all, she found this wild boar, and she was a little embarrassed.
"What's so embarrassing about that? You found this wild boar, so don't take too much, just eat enough. ”
"I went home to pick a few Chinese cabbages and stew them in a big pot, and everyone borrowed them to eat some."
Aunt Ma happily went to the field to pick vegetables.
Shen Xiaoya looked at the neighbors around her and raised her voice:
"That, this wild boar is quite big, everyone is also a neighbor, the wild boar is caught by Gao Liang, and Aunt Ma has made a lot of efforts."
"On the mountain, we discussed it, and when we saw it, Aunt Ma went home to pick cabbage. Today's stew is a big pot of dishes, one bowl per family, and everyone has borrowed it all. ”
The neighbors around were all excited when they heard it, Mom, this is pork stewed cabbage, and I can't eat it for the New Year!
I didn't expect this Gao family kid to be quite righteous, if these meats are brought to the market, they can be sold for a lot of money!
"Then let's go home and pick a few cabbages, there are so many people, and we can't let Aunt Ma's family go out."
It was suggested that everyone also go home to pick vegetables, and after a while, two cauldrons were set up in the yard.
When Gao Liang came back, the yard was busy with a clear division of labor, what was the situation?
"That, I just thought that everyone hadn't eaten pork for a long time, everyone had a share, and today it will be a dinner, one bowl for the family."
"But don't worry, I'll keep your and Aunt Ma's share." Shen Xiaoya said shyly.
Gao Liang looked at Shen Xiaoya in front of him, who originally rescued her by the river, but out of humanitarian spirit, thinking that she was just a traditional girl who was conformist and couldn't stand the blow.
But then she angrily scolded the old lady of the Shen family, made hats for free for the women in the village, and then caught wild boars and knew how to share.
It feels like she's different from other girls.
Gao Liang helped her catch the wild boar and didn't think about what she could share, but she was simply afraid that she would be in danger.
In this era when everyone is hungry, she can distribute food to everyone, which really impresses him.
It's rare to see such an open-minded girl!
Without waiting for Gao Liang to speak, he was called by everyone to deal with the wild boar.
I have to say that the highlight is really powerful, and it didn't take long for the wild boar to be dealt with, and everyone started cooking together.
Shen Xiaoya was really reluctant, and put a lot of meat in the pot, everyone who watched it was a little distressed, and someone next to her reminded from time to time: "This is a bit too much, too much!" ”
Shen Xiaoya smiled, "Not much, not much, why don't you have to share a few pieces for the family!" ”
There is a lot of strength in the people, and soon the two-pot dish will be ready, the fragrance is indescribable, and the children are anxious to turn in circles.
When she said it, Shen Xiaoya gave each family a bowl, and if there were many children, she would put a few more pieces of meat.
Although everyone didn't say anything, they kept this intention in their hearts.
After a busy night, seeing everyone's happy appearance, I felt that the hard work was worth it.
After cleaning up, Shen Xiaoya took out two large bags of meat.
Aunt Ma took the meat and felt that it was quite heavy, more than fifty pounds.
"Xiaoya, you don't have to give me so much, take out some of it, I put a lot of food in today's cooking, and there is not much left."
"Aunt Ma, you have a lot of family, besides, don't you have to get some for your mother's family, take it away!"
Aunt Ma was very grateful and took it away.
There was only a highlight left in the courtyard, and Shen Xiaoya raised her hand and pointed: "This is your share, take it away!" ”
Gao Liang looked at a large bag of large weights and quipped:
"Don't you want to make sweet and sour pork ribs, pork trotters in sauce, and braised pork? It's all given to us, don't you regret it? ”
"I told you to hurry up, slow down, maybe I'll really regret it!" Shen Xiaoya said with a serious face.
Gao Liang also put away the joke and said seriously: "You take out some of it, my mother and sister can't eat too much." ”
"You think I'm stupid, I kept the ribs and pig's trotters by myself."
"All I got for you is fine meat, isn't your mother in bad health, you go back and cook some meat porridge for her, it's easy to absorb, and your body will be fine if you eat well, and besides, aren't you the pillar of your family, don't you need to eat more."
Gao Liang didn't refuse again, and only said one sentence before leaving: "Don't always put yourself in danger and make people anxious." ”
Shen Xiaoya looked at Gao Liang's back and thought for a while......
Didn't he have something to ask her for? It seems that there is no hurry, so let's talk about it next time!
Today's meat meal is a pleasure for everyone, and the whole village basically eats it.
But no one told the Shen family's old mansion, and when they knew, the dishes were all divided.
Old Lady Shen trembled with anger, "This little cheap hoof, cooking meat in her yard, not to mention sending us some, what a white-eyed wolf!" ”
Zhang Shufen followed with oil and vinegar: "But isn't it, I heard that the wild boar is hundreds of catties, and it has enough for many people to eat." ”
"Almost every family in the village gets a bowl of vegetables, and there is a lot of meat, you say that this Xiaoya is really, give all the meat to others, and not to her own family, what do you think she thinks?"
The more Old Lady Shen thought about it, the more angry she became, and she wanted to go to Shen Xiaoya's house when she got up, but Zhang Shufen on the side hurriedly stopped her.
"Mom, now we can't tear our faces with Xiaoya, think about it, the most important thing for us now is not to share that bowl of meat, but the bride price, the bride price, you forgot!"
Old Mrs. Shen thought about it, and then suppressed her anger.
As long as the bride price is in hand, how much meat can she buy! Don't bother with this little yet.
Qin Xiang came back from the brigade, and when she met people along the way, she praised her for having a good daughter.
She was a little overwhelmed at first, but later she realized what was going on.
Her daughter's approach is quite admirable.
As soon as she entered the door, Qin Xiang smelled the smell of meat, and Shen Xiaoya brought a bowl to her mother.
Of course, this one is an added amount, a bowl full of meat, "Mom, I specially left it for you, eat it quickly, it should be cold in a while." ”
Qin Xiang looked at a bowl of meat.
Hurriedly pushed in front of Shen Xiaoya: "Xiaoya, mom is not too hungry, you can keep it to eat, mom just eat some food." ”
Shen Xiaoya pulled Qin Xiang to the cellar in the courtyard, "Mom, you see there are so many, after all, it is the wild boar that the three of us caught, of course we will divide more, I will take out some of it and eat it, and I will make bacon for the rest, so that the storage time will be longer." Mom, you can eat it with confidence! ”
