You can't have both fish and bear's paws, this is the original words of Mencius!

And the delicacy of the bear's paw, Ding Qiunan and the little goldfish have tasted it, which is indeed very good.

The main thing is that it is handled well and the food is naturally delicious.

The more top-notch the cuisine, the more you need to look at the chef's cooking skills.

Hearing Zhou Jimin say this, Xiao Jinyu and Ding Qiunan both drooled unconsciously.

At the same time, they hurried to help, as for the fishy smell, they didn't care so much anymore.

Zhang Wantong was still in shock, and had a deeper understanding of Zhou Jimin's marksmanship and luck.

You must know that she has not gone into the mountains to collect medicine before, and she has heard of many hunters with very good marksmanship, but it is the first time she has seen marksmanship like Zhou Jimin.

A hundred meters away, across the lush woods, two shots killed the prey.

She was also surprised by the dismemberment of her prey, and she saw that her flesh and bones were separated.

Fast thief!

Shocked to shocked, after hearing Zhou Jimin's instructions, Zhang Wantong also got busy.

It took more than half an hour to finally pack up the two beasts.

Organ meats or something, definitely don't want it, it's too much trouble.

Directly hollowed out, then buried on the spot, used as fertilizer.

It's just that when Zhou Jimin put it in the pit on the side, he threw it back into the space as fertilizer.

Put it in the wild, that's waste.

Even so, things such as tiger bones, tiger whips, and bear paws alone occupy a lot of weight.

I didn't ask for most of the meat, Ding Qiunan was very reluctant, but he had to give up.

In just over half an hour, there were already a lot of flies and mosquitoes nearby.

That's true in the mountains.

At the same time, the meat exposed to the air, the taste quickly deteriorates.

Therefore, there is no way to waste this meat.

The meat wrapped in tiger and bear skins is placed in a cool place by the stream, and a place is cleared for a roasted whole lamb to be eaten before returning home.

While roasting mutton, Ding Qiunan looked at the two hills next to him.

"Jimin, how many catties are here? I can't even pick it up. ”

In fact, compared with ordinary women such as Zhang Wantong, Ding Qiunan's strength is not small, and the average strength is greater than that of ordinary adult men.

But it's definitely not as good as those strong men who can carry three or four hundred pounds.

And the weight of the two hills must be more than 1,000 catties, and with Zhou Jimin's strength, he will feel tired when he bears it.

Therefore, when I go down the mountain later, I will definitely replace the tiger bones and bear paws in the hill with cotton that has no weight.

Otherwise, the mountain road is crooked, and he can't get tired and lie down the mountain so far?

"It doesn't matter how heavy it is, anyway, you don't have to worry about it, instead of caring about this, you might as well pay attention to the mutton, don't burn it."

"Cut, with me and my sister-in-law watching, what are you afraid of, big brother?"

The little goldfish hurriedly said, and this remark was unanimously agreed by Ding Qiunan.

Shaking his head and smiling, Zhou Jimin didn't say anything more.

The flesh of a few beasts, and a lot, he needs to 'deal with' it.

That is, there is no salt, otherwise, if you marinate it with salt, the meat can be left for a while.

Suddenly, Zhou Jimin patted his head and said to Ding Qiunan:

"Nan Nan, I thought of a way to smoke all this meat, so that I wouldn't be afraid of the meat being tasteless."

"However, the only trouble is that there is too much meat, and it is estimated that a lot will be wasted."

Smoked into jerky and grilled over charcoal, this method is either impossible or too troublesome.

Besides, it's summer, and it's a fire? It can heat people to death.

Ding Qiunan was very excited and agreed with Zhou Jimin's opinion.

However, Zhang Wantong shook his head and refused, saying that this matter was thankless, so it was better not to do it.

The most important thing is that so much meat requires a lot of charcoal, so it is easy to cause a fire, which is a big trouble.

Hearing her say this, Ding Qiunan suddenly wilted.

Zhou Jimin thought for a moment, and felt that Zhang Wantong was reasonable, so he simply stopped insisting and 'disposed' of the remaining meat.

The goat meat crackled under the charcoal fire, and the fat sizzled in the high temperature, bubbling with the aroma of oil, wafting far away.

"Come, sprinkle some cumin powder, honey, ......"

Taking out the seasoning from the back basket, Zhou Jimin slowly spread the things evenly on the mutton.

Zhang Wantong and the others all looked at it dumbfounded, and the little goldfish swallowed his saliva even more angrily, and said:

"Big brother, why do you still have seasoning in your back basket? It's so good, I thought you just brought salt, I didn't expect it to be so complete, I love you to death. ”

"Go aside, don't come here, it's hot."

Seeing her squeezing over, Zhou Jimin said with disgust:

"How can you go into the mountains without seasoning? In the mountains in summer, there are all the delicacies that nature gives back, so the seasonings must be prepared. ”

In this regard, Ding Qiunan and the others were speechless.

The little goldfish complained:

"Big brother, I think you're more like a little gluttonous cat than me, at least I wouldn't think of bringing seasoning."

"That's because you're stupid, you know how to eat, I'm a gourmet, specializing in food, you know?"

Seeing Zhou Jimin's triumphant appearance, the little goldfish made a vomiting posture, while Ding Qiunan and Zhang Wantong rolled their eyes.

In a cheerful atmosphere, the roasted whole lamb is quickly ready.

The two guys next to him, Wangcai and the black girl, were also drooling.

In the past, there was no space spring water, so the two foodies who didn't eat, now, as long as the food is fed by the owner, they eat.

As for fragrant food, it's their favorite.

After all, let's not talk about whether it's delicious or not, if it smells like a good food, it will definitely not taste bad.

You must know that this is something that the owner eats, and the dog must be able to eat it too.

Zhou Jimin didn't take care of Wangcai and the black girl who were jumping up and down in a hurry, but each shared a leg of mutton.

Forty or fifty catties of sheep, just the leg of mutton meat is enough to fill the stomach.

After lunch, it was already past one o'clock in the afternoon.

Everyone didn't delay, so let's go home.

When he carried the two hills, the weight on Zhou Jimin's shoulders was only three or four hundred catties.

Even this weight is enough to make Ding Qiunan difficult to shake.

The way down the mountain is a lot better, because there is no road when going up the mountain.

After walking for about an hour, Wangcai and the black girl suddenly shouted again.

"Wangcai: Shut up!"

Zhou Jimin frowned, and then ordered the black girl to let it go and see what was happening in front of her.

Looking at the figure of the black girl rushing out, Ding Qiunan and the others were a little worried, but Zhou Jimin said:

"Don't worry about this, this place is already very close to Qinjiazhuang, no wild beasts will come to these places to feed, I guess it should be wild boars."

It's a pity that the slap in the face came too quickly, and the black girl puffed a few times, and then the little girl's exclamation came.

As soon as he heard this voice, Zhou Jimin hurriedly shouted loudly, and the black girl suddenly stopped shouting.

The voice just now was very similar to the little girl he met selling medicinal herbs in the pigeon market a few years ago.

He still remembers that the little girl was selling medicinal herbs with her mute grandfather and younger brother.

"Nan Nan, let's go."

Not long after the group walked forward, they saw a mute old man and a little girl, who were the two grandchildren that Zhou Jimin met in Pigeon City.

It's just that the mute old man and the little girl don't know Zhou Jimin now.

Cui Xiulan was scared to death at this time, her little body hiding behind her grandfather trembled, and her little face looked at the black girl not far in front of her with a frightened face.

The black girl is very large, and she is even more fierce than the wolf king she has ever seen.

As for the movement of the black girl jumping out just now, Cui Xiulan felt that even if there were seven or eight little wolf packs, it was estimated that they were not the opponents of the black girl.

But just when she was terrified, she suddenly heard a voice not far away, and then the black girl squatted down and stared at the two of them.

It didn't take long for four people to come out.

A tall young man, two women, and a little girl about her age.

Just glanced at the little girl, Cui Xiulan was suddenly very envious.

Because she found that the little girl was very beautiful, and she wore only a few complements, and she looked very new.

It's like her clothes, not to mention the white washing, there are many complements.

So, without contrast, there is no harm.

Cui Xiulan, who had low self-esteem, didn't dare to take a second look, lowered her head slightly, and didn't speak.

"I'm sorry, I scared you just now, didn't you? I'm really sorry, my dog thought he was in danger, so he was so reckless. ”

Zhou Jimin put down the luggage on his shoulders and said with a smile at the other party.

"It's okay, are you going down the mountain? Then you go through it first. ”

Hearing Cui Xiulan's weak voice, Zhou Jimin smiled and said:

"Grandpa, little sister, do you have medicinal herbs in your bamboo basket?"

In fact, he didn't need to ask, he knew it was a medicinal herb.

In order to raise enough money for the century-old ginseng, the little girl and her grandfather often went to collect medicine and then took it to the pigeon market to exchange money.

However, the supply and marketing cooperatives in many places such as county towns and towns actually have places that specialize in purchasing medicinal herbs.

The reason why the little girl and her grandfather were reluctant to sell to the supply and marketing cooperatives was that the supply and marketing cooperatives were also purchased as planned, and the price was also high.

Therefore, the amount of dead herbs is limited, even if the little girl and her grandfather take over the supply and marketing cooperative's annual amount, they will not be able to make a few dollars.

Second, although the pigeon market is a bit risky and tiring, there is no limit, and you can sell as many as you want.

Therefore, choosing to sell in the pigeon market is also a last resort.

However, in fact, there are not many people in the pigeon market who are willing to buy medicinal herbs after all, and more are to buy some common medicinal herbs such as Ganoderma lucidum and honeysuckle.

These things, either medicinal diets or herbs that the family needs daily, are consumed a lot.

In addition to these, other rare or uncommon herbs are easy to be unsalable.

And today, Cui Xiulan's grandfather is carrying a bamboo basket, and there are many rare and precious herbs.

Hearing Zhou Jimin's voice, Zhang Wantong and the three of them also set their eyes on the bamboo basket.

Suddenly, Zhang Wantong and Ding Qiunan were both overjoyed.

These herbs are rare medicines.

Immediately, Zhang Wantong spoke:

"Hello, uncle, do you sell these herbs? I want to buy them all. ”

When Cui Xiulan heard this, she was immediately overjoyed, and hurriedly spoke, saying that she could sell it.

She and her grandfather went to the pigeon market in the early hours of the morning before dawn.

But until almost noon, there was still not much sold.

Common herbs such as dampness and fire reduction, or medicinal materials such as Ganoderma lucidum, are quite popular, but these things are not always available.

Therefore, at the end of the day, it is only sold for a few cents, which is more difficult than going up the mountain to collect medicine.

Every time at this time, Cui Xiulan thinks of the uncle she met by chance a few years ago.

It's a pity that the uncle has never been in touch since he completed the transaction during the Lantern Festival.

Unexpectedly, on the mountain road that is about to reach home now, I actually met people who were willing to buy medicinal herbs, which was simply a joy from the sky.

Seeing that Cui Xiulan wanted to speak and introduce the herbs, Zhang Wantong hurriedly stopped her and said:

"Don't be in a hurry to introduce first, little goldfish, come and see, what herbs are in the bamboo basket? What are the pharmacological properties? ”

This is to test Zhou Shumin.

Such a good opportunity, how could Zhang Wantong miss it?

Of course, if it weren't for Zhou Jimin's reminder just now, Zhang Wantong wouldn't have noticed this.

After all, when they meet on a narrow road, who has nothing to do to take a look at what other people's bamboo baskets contain?

The little goldfish stepped forward and took a closer look.

Cui Xiulan was very surprised, although her grandfather was mute and couldn't hear it, he could see it clearly.

The average deaf-mute person has sharper eyes, which are equivalent to ears and mouths.

After a while, the little goldfish recognized the herbs in the bamboo basket.

There are sixteen kinds of herbs in total, all of which are very rare and rare herbs, and the same is true for the diseases that are cured, all of which are not very common.

Of course, it can also be used as an auxiliary herb, or to make medicinal food, etc.

Although the little goldfish is young and has only studied Chinese medicine for less than a month, he is talented, has a good memory, and the teacher is also responsible, so it is normal to be able to recognize it.

Seeing the little goldfish accurately say the names and pharmacology of these herbs, Cui Xiulan was very envious.

She also likes Chinese medicine and is even more obsessed with it.

Because she knows that only by learning Chinese medicine, when she grows up, her family is sick, and she can treat her family.

Unlike now, when her sister is sick, there is nothing she can do.

"Hello uncle, how are you going to sell these herbs?"

Zhang Wantong was very happy, but as soon as she finished speaking, she put her hands in her pockets, empty, and her heart suddenly became embarrassed.

Cui Xiulan didn't find this, just said the price, saying that it was cheap to sell, and it only cost nine cents.

Zhou Jimin, who was on the side, naturally saw Zhang Wantong's embarrassment, and hurriedly said:

"Sister Wantong, I'll pay."

He took out a one-dollar bill and said to Cui Xiulan:

"Hello little sister, don't look for it, I want to tell you something, can you take a look?"

Cui Xiulan, who took the money, nodded happily, and heard Zhou Jimin say that his sister is studying medicine, and she will go into the mountains to dig medicinal materials once a week in the future.

Cui Xiulan didn't want to agree to this matter, so she bowed her head in embarrassment and said nothing.

Zhou Jimin doesn't know what the situation is.

Hurriedly said:

"I think you and your grandfather should often collect medicine, and they are very familiar with the nearby mountains and forests, but I just hope you can be a guide. Of course, we'll pay you, and we'll pay you three cents every time you pick up medicine, okay? ”

Don't think that three cents is a lot, but it's not much at all.

As long as you can let the little goldfish learn, is it too much for three cents?

Anyway, in Zhou Jimin's opinion, it's really not much.

After all, the place where Cui Xiulan and her grandfather often go to collect herbs must be the place where the herbs grow vigorously.

Even, many places are their family's secret herb gardens.

Learning Chinese medicine requires seniors to lead the way in order to go fast and further.

The same is true for digging herbs.

Although in this era, there are many pharmacies that sell medicinal materials, and there is no need to go into the mountains and forests to collect medicines.

However, as the saying goes, it is easier said than done, and if you haven't experienced it, how do you know how difficult this road will be?

In ancient times, the first step in cultivating a qualified Chinese medicine practitioner was to go up the mountain with the master to collect medicines, go to the medicine and pesticide merchants to collect medicines, and also concoct medicinal materials by hand.

At the same time, it is also necessary to recite various books on the enlightenment of traditional Chinese medicine, such as "Medicinal Properties", "Four Hundred Flavors of Traditional Chinese Medicine", "The Pulse of the Lake", "The Soup Song", "Lei Gong Cannon Theory" and so on.

Little Goldfish didn't memorize so much, because she directly memorized the thick book of basic theories of Chinese medicine.

It contains a lot of pharmacological knowledge such as medicinal properties.

In this process, it is actually a process of drug recognition, and it is also a long-term and boring process.

This process takes about five to ten years, and only after you know about the forms and types of fresh medicines, crude medicines, dried medicines, and concocted medicines, can you move on to the next stage.

And the little goldfish is now in this stage.

Zhang Wantong cultivated little goldfish, almost referring to the process she used to cultivate little goldfish when she was a child.

It is true that the process of medicinal herbs of the little goldfish will not be very long, but the process of recognizing medicinal herbs is destined not to be very short.

You must know that in the book of Compendium of Materia Medica, there were already 1,892 kinds of herbs in the Ming Dynasty, and 716 kinds of Chinese medicine were added in the Qing Dynasty.

After the founding of the People's Republic of China, the dictionary of traditional Chinese medicine included 5,767 kinds of traditional Chinese medicine, including 4,773 kinds of plant medicines, and the others included animal drugs and mineral medicines.

Just remembering the names of these herbs can blow your head out, not to mention remembering the medicinal properties, pathologies, and so on.

Therefore, the basic theory of traditional Chinese medicine is what little goldfish should learn the most.

The second stage is to go to the front of the stage and grab the medicine in front of the hall, and at the same time need to memorize a set of books, which is basically the "Yellow Emperor's Neijing" There will be no discrepancies.

When you finish reciting "Su Wen", you will be given "Lingshu" until you have memorized all the Yellow Emperor's internal scriptures.

In the next step, different schools of thought will give different books, for example, the typhoid school will definitely give you "Treatise on Typhoid Fever and Miscellaneous Diseases", the Yishui school will definitely give you "The Origin of Medicine" and "Treatise on the Spleen and Stomach", and the warm disease school will definitely give you "Treatise on Plague", "Treatise on Warmth", "Debate on Warm Disease", "Warm Longitude and Latitude" and the like.

That is, the little goldfish, she doesn't know this, if she knows that after chewing the theoretical foundation of Chinese medicine that is thicker than the Oxford dictionary, there are still many books waiting for her.

She probably had to give up.

In ancient times, the second stage was to be familiar with the various human feelings and sophistication in front of the stage, the dosage and ratio of various traditional Chinese medicines, etc., and the process was about three to five years if you were smart.

In fact, in the second stage, most of them were eliminated.

Either change careers to become pharmacists, or have the capital to become pharmacists, drug dealers, etc., and some can't stand to change careers to other industries.

The rest are basically followed by the master, and the daily routine is to copy the doctor's eucalyptus, write the prescription, and serve tea and pour water.

Or the master is interested in teaching the apprentice skills such as pulse cutting and acupuncture.

The third process lasts about three or five years, and at the same time, some people will be eliminated, because this step will also be divided into in-house disciples, outer room disciples, and so on.

The disciple who entered the house is actually passed down by himself, which is equivalent to passing on his son.

Some masters will even marry their daughters to this in-house parent, and they will be close to each other.

After completely passing the third stage, you can basically practice medicine alone, and at the same time, you can open the mountain and accept apprentices.

Ideally, it would take at least 11 years to become a qualified TCM practitioner.

But how many decades are there in life?

Especially in modern times, there is more knowledge to learn and more difficult problems to face.

Therefore, the cost of time and energy invested is exponentially increased.

Eleven years is nothing more than an ideal state.

If he can shorten the time and provide more help for the little goldfish on the road of learning Chinese medicine, Zhou Jimin thinks that even if it is three cents or thirty yuan, he is willing.

Cui Xiulan was stunned, three cents at a time?

This is more than the income she earned once she went up the mountain to collect medicine, so generous?

She hurriedly shook her head and refused, saying that she was just leading the way, and she didn't need so much money.

At this point, she was scared again.

Because she was afraid that there was a pit in it, and she was afraid that Zhou Jimin was a liar.

Or Zhou Jimin simply wanted to know the gathering place of those medicinal herbs in the mountains, so that his sister could dig the medicine herself in the future.

In the face of Cui Xiulan's sudden vigilance, Zhou Jimin was also speechless, so he had to let Ding Qiunan explain.

After all, in comparison, Ding Qiunan is more affinity.

Maybe a few years ago, Ding Qiunan was more like an iceberg beauty, cold.

But over the years, she doesn't have to worry about anything, she takes care of her children every day, and her affinity is directly off the charts.

Even Zhang Wantong, because he often stays in the hospital, inevitably deals with the patient's family, but he is not as affinable as Ding Qiunan.

The little goldfish followed behind her sister-in-law and came to Cui Xiulan, and the two sisters-in-law began to persuade.

Not to mention, the effect is much better than what Zhou Jimin himself said.

Although Zhou Jimin can be persuaded by his words, it is definitely not as easy as Ding Qiunan and the little goldfish.

The matter was quickly settled, and the date of the next entry into the mountain was determined.

Cui Xiulan and her family live in the mountains, and it is almost enough to walk along the path to the mountains for more than two hours.

When Ding Qiunan heard this distance, he immediately felt distressed about the little girl in front of him.

The road in the mountains alone takes about three hours to walk, so you can imagine how far the little girl's home is.

After a few simple exchanges, I realized that in the deep mountains, there were only seven or eight families in total.

And they don't live close, so their family is almost a single family.

After the matter was settled, looking at the backs of Cui Xiulan and her grandfather walking into the mountains, everyone withdrew their eyes and prepared to return to the city.

When I returned to Nanjianzi Hutong, it was already half an afternoon.

"Mommy, Mommy, you're back."

The three little ones who were doing their homework in the study heard the movement on the other side of the door and all ran out.

"Xiaoxian, you come down for me, your father still has meat on his shoulders, you want to crush your father."

Seeing Zhou Qingxian jumping directly onto her father, Ding Qiunan looked nervous and hurriedly shouted.

Something weighing hundreds of pounds, no joke.

When I took the bus just now, the bus driver was frightened, he was a behemoth, and he was so heavy.

As a result, he was not allowed to get on the bus, so he could only borrow a carriage and pull it back to the city.

Zhou Jimin smiled and said it was okay, and then put down the things on his shoulder.

Peng!

The two heavy hills collided with the ground, stirring up a puff of dust.

"Dad, you're amazing."

Xiao Budian, who was holding his mother's thigh, was stunned when he saw this scene.

Xiaoyi's sleepy bug also ran away, and quickly got out of her mother's arms, and then ran to hug her father's thigh.

It's still Dad who is the best.

"Dad, what's in here? Why did your mother say it would crush you? ”

pinched the faces of the two little guys, and Zhou Jimin said that you can open it and take a look yourself, don't you know?

The two curious little guys really wanted to open it and take a look, but fortunately they were pulled away by Ding Qiunan.

The two hills are full of meat, what's there to see?

From the afternoon to the evening, the whole family went out together just to pack up all the meat.

Tigers and grizzly bears are carnivores, after all, and the meat is certainly not as tasty as herbivores, but in this day and age, meat is already scarce.

After most of the meat from the two hills was processed, the remaining tiger bones and bear paws were also processed.

Tiger bones are the raw material used to make tiger bone wine, but now it can only be simply processed, and then stored in the ice cellar to be kept until the day after tomorrow.

After all, you have to prepare a lot of materials to make tiger bone wine, and you can't just get it.

When dealing with the bear's paw, Zhang Wantong euphemistically said that when making tiger bone wine, could she help on the side?

For fear that Zhou Jimin would misunderstand, she tried her best to explain that she either wanted to steal the teacher, or she just wanted to see it and satisfy her curiosity.

If it's inconvenient, forget it.

Since they all spoke, of course Zhou Jimin was willing to agree.

If tiger bone wine is really that simple and can be learned, it will not be so valuable.

You know, the most important thing about this thing is the space spring.

With his permission, Zhang Wantong was very happy.

When the bear's paw was almost done, Zhou Jimin was ready to go out.

There are good things, of course, to share.

Now it is no more than the previous famine years, and since last year, there has been basically no famine in most parts of the country.

As long as you cultivate diligently, there is no problem in filling your stomach.

Of course, there are also some remote rural areas, such as the northwest, which may still be suffering from hunger and cold.

Riding a bicycle out, the first person Zhou Jimin wanted to invite was Lao Yang.

However, Lao Yang was not at home, but worked in the unit.

In the office, Lao Yang saw Zhou Jimin coming in, so he sent his secretary out, and then said to Zhou Jimin with a smile:

"How do you have time to come to me?"

As for who is busier, there is no doubt that it is naturally Zhou Jimin, who has been shouting that he is very tired.

Anyway, Lao Yang felt that he was not as good as Zhou Jimin, after all, the latter had several heavy responsibilities.

"No matter how busy you are, you have to eat, is Lao Yang busy today? I made some good food at home, and I prepared some wine, so let's come to eat at home tonight. ”

Hearing him say this, Lao Yang was stunned and surprised:

"What day is it? Why did you take the initiative to treat yourself? ”

"Look at what you said, I've notified you, if you don't come, don't blame me for not calling you then."

Bear's paw is a good thing, and besides, besides, there are other delicious meals besides bear's paw.

"Okay, then I'll go over after work."

As soon as he finished speaking, Lao Yang suddenly felt that something was wrong, and stopped Zhou Jimin and said:

"No, you hired someone else?"

"How fresh, I'm not the only friend of you, I can't invite someone else?"

"Fart, your daughter and son call me grandpa, I'm not your friend, but your Uncle Yang...."

"Cut, I'm too lazy to take care of you."

Zhou Jimin rolled his eyes, dropped a sentence, and turned to leave.

"Just remember to come over later."

Leaving from Lao Yang's side, Zhou Jimin went to Peking University again.

In the office of the head of the mathematics department, he saw Hua Lao again.

Before, he was still surprised, why every time he came here, he could meet Hua Lao.

Later, he learned that Hua Lao was trying to avoid work, so he ran to Duan Xuefu's side.

Like him, Hua Lao is also a big man with many hats, and Hua Lao has served as several team leaders in the research group of the Academy of Sciences alone.

"Two teachers, I have prepared food at home tonight, and I will have a light meal at home later, don't forget."

When Duan Xuefu heard this, he shook his head with a smile, "Your family's food is not a light meal, let's say, what's the matter?" ”

"Look at what you said, I just want to invite you and Teacher Hua to have a light meal at home, what can I do?"

Regarding Zhou Jimin's helpless explanation, Hua Lao directly hit the nail on the head:

"I'm afraid you don't want to lighten the burden and want us two old guys to cover for you, right?"

Although he was guessed correctly, Zhou Jimin still didn't admit it.

Because once they really admit it, if they don't come to the house for dinner, won't they be busy in vain?

It's just that he is on his own, and if he wants to convince the big leader, I'm afraid it will be a little difficult.

Therefore, you can only pull these heavy big people together.

That's right, he now plans to make it clear to the big leader in advance that he will resign from all his positions at the end of this year or the beginning of next year, and only retain the position of consultant of Red Star Company.

Because it's 63 years now, and by the end of the year, or the beginning of next year, it's 64.

You can't talk about it until the end of '64, right?

Zhou Jimin is worried that it will really be too late then.

Anyway, what he should have done now has been done.

In May of this year, all the debts owed to others were paid off.

The mountain above you is gone.

This is the first good thing, and the second good thing is the good news in the newspapers, that this summer, a bomb will be detonated in the desert.

According to estimates, the probability of success this time is very high.

If successful, it will become the fifth country in the world to possess an atomic bomb.

Judging from these two events, Zhou Jimin has successfully influenced the historical process of this film and television world.

After all, from the perspective of the original time and space, the repayment of debts and the detonation of the atomic bomb were all in six or four years.

And now, because of Zhou Jimin, it has been advanced by a whole year.

Don't underestimate the change in a year, it can affect many things.

Therefore, Zhou Jimin wants to retreat bravely in the rapids and hide his merit and fame.

I just don't know if Lao Lin, an old fritter, is willing or not.

Duan Xuefu and Hua Lao were not fools, so they naturally guessed something.

Although he was used as a gun by Zhou Jimin, who called the two of them Zhou Jimin's teachers, even if he didn't want to be this gun, but now there is no way.

In the summer in the capital, even though it is already past six o'clock, the sky is still very bright.

Zhou Jimin, who was riding a bicycle, came to the yamen on Wenjin Street.

When the doorman saw him, he straightened up and saluted.

In the past, every time I came, I had to check it, but now not only do I not need to check it, but I also salute him, and the treatment is really different.

As soon as he was about to go in, Lu Qianxiang came out of it.

"Yo, what are you doing here?"

"Go next door to send a document, the leader is inside, and the mood is not bad, Director Zhou, you can go in by yourself."

As soon as he heard the word director, Zhou Jimin was very awkward.

In his opinion, the position of director is generally only held by middle-aged and elderly people in their forties and fifties, and it is really very incompatible to give him a young man of twenty years old.

But uncomfortable is uncomfortable, and after dealing with Lu Qianxiang, Zhou Jimin walked in.

In the office, Lao Lin was immersed in the papers, and he didn't see him come in.

After Lao Lin finished reading the document, he raised his head and wanted to rub his dry eyes, only to notice Zhou Jimin, who was sitting on the side, suddenly said angrily:

"You're welcome, when I'm in your office? Come in and sit down by yourself without saying hello? ”

Zhou Jimin, who put down the book, raised his eyebrows and said:

"Leader, you can wronged me, I greeted you when I came in, but you didn't pay attention to me just now."

"Also, I'm here to invite you to my house for a light meal, not to scold you."

Lao Lin pouted, "Invite me to dinner?" Are you that kind? I'm afraid it's not a Hongmen banquet, right? ”

"Just kidding, do I have any qualifications? Leader, you look down on me too much, don't you? ”

Zhou Jimin, who was dripping with cold sweat, hurriedly explained.

Then he said that the words have been brought, and it is up to you to decide whether you come or not.

With that, he turned and left.

Even if Lao Lin shouted at him to stop behind him, he didn't stop.

Not to mention, this trick is very useful.

At seven o'clock in the evening, the sun had already set, but the sky had not yet darkened, and dinner had not yet begun, and Lao Lin arrived on time.

"Grandpa Lin, I miss you so much, you haven't come to see Xiaoxian for a long time."

At the gate, the three little guys from Zhou Jimin's family were waiting for someone here.

The main purpose is also very simple, to exercise these little guys.

Zhou Bingliang was still too young, hiding behind his eldest brother, looking at Lao Lin a little shyly.

Lao Lin put away his thoughts about cleaning up Zhou Jimin, squeezed out a smile, and interacted with Zhou Qingxian and them like an amiable old man.

While chatting with the little children, Lao Lin muttered in his heart, Zhou Jimin's monkey grandson is too human, and he actually uses his own children as a shield?

Don't think that's it, I won't clean you up later, huh!

In the courtyard, Zhou Jimin, who was chatting with Lao Yang and them, felt a chill in his back for no reason.

Hearing the movement outside the gate, Zhou Jimin thought to himself, it is estimated that Lao Lin is here.

After a while, when he got up to greet him, he saw Lao Lin chatting with the children.

Lao Lin, who was like a Sichuan opera who had changed his face, was still talking with the children in a friendly and cordial way last second, and after seeing Zhou Jimin coming, his expression changed instantly, like ten thousand years of cold ice, which startled Zhou Qingxian and the little guys who were close to Chi Chi.

"Grandpa Lin, why are you suddenly angry? Did Xiaoyi do something wrong and make you angry? ”

Hearing Zhou Qingyi's crying voice, Lao Lin Dingqing looked at it, and saw the little guy's frightened expression, and a lot of mist had brewed in his big eyes, which was very pitiful and aggrieved.

"No, no, Xiaoyi, don't cry, it's Grandpa Lin."

Lao Lin was in a hurry, and hurriedly coaxed the little guy and said.

It's not okay if it's not messy, because Zhou Qingxian and Xiao Budian are also quite aggrieved, and they were frightened by Lao Lin's sudden change of face just now.

Zhou Jimin on the side stood still, watching Lao Lin coaxing the child, which was very interesting.

Who knows, Lao Lin was coaxing the child, and just caught a glimpse of him watching from the sidelines, and suddenly said angrily:

"Not yet to coax your child? Isn't the child your own? ”

"It's my own, yes, but it's not my fault, whoever makes the child cry is responsible for coaxing it back."

Hearing his irresponsible words, Lao Lin was even more angry.

was about to stand up and teach Zhou Jimin a lesson, but I didn't expect Zhou Qingxian and the others to hug Lao Lin in groups, and they couldn't leave if they wanted to.

gave Zhou Jimin an expression of 'you kid is waiting for me', and Lao Lin had no choice but to continue coaxing the child.

After tossing and turning for a while, Lao Lin was able to free himself from the children's crying.

Zhou Jimin greeted a few children, and then invited Lao Lin to come inside and prepare for dinner.

With the arrival of Lao Lin, dinner has officially begun.

In the living room, it was very lively.

Since there were many guests today, two tables were divided.

Ding Qiunan took Zhang Wantong and Zhou Shuqing to wait for a table, because they didn't drink at this table.

"Hey, three bottles of Moutai, five bottles of Wuliangye, what are you going to do today?"

Seeing Zhou Jimin holding a box of wine and putting it on the table next to him, Lao Lin squinted his eyes and said with a smile on his face.

Duan Xuefu, Hua Lao and Lao Yang were all eyelids jumping wildly, waiting for Zhou Jimin's reply.

Look at this situation, no one can leave today, eight bottles of wine.

As a result, Zhou Jimin just smiled, then turned around and brought in two more cases of wine from outside.

The boxes are wooden, and the boards are quite new, but each case contains twelve bottles of wine, is this serious?

Zhuyeqing, Fenjiu, Hongxing Erguotou and other liquors are all the best-selling liquors of the supply and marketing cooperatives.

Don't underestimate these wines, in the year of the founding of the People's Republic of China, these kinds of wines were frequent guests at state banquets.

After all, liquor also has different flavors, some people like Moutai, some people like Erguotou, and the so-called radish greens have their own loves, nothing more.

?

?? Like Zhuye Qing, which is a traditional famous liquor in Shanxi, the brewing is mainly based on the base liquor of Fenjiu, which is carefully blended to ensure the original flavor of Fenjiu while also having a surging green bamboo fragrance.

"Leader, teacher, Lao Yang, there are several kinds of wine here, drink as you like."

It didn't seem to see Lao Lin's ugly face, Zhou Jimin said with a smile:

"My main task tonight is to serve you well, and eating and drinking well is the top priority today."

Lao Yang almost didn't explode, frowned and said unhappily: "So much wine, you want to drink us to death, what do you want to do?" ”

Twenty-nine bottles of liquor, Moutai and Wuliangye are just 500 milliliters of a catty.

But there are several kinds of liquor such as bamboo leaf green, all of which are 650 milliliters.

The average person's amount of alcohol is only one or two catties at most, and even if the amount of alcohol is very good, it will only be three or four catties to death.

Therefore, there are only six of them sharing so much wine, at least five bottles per person.

It's really fatal.

Even Ding Rushan, who likes to drink very much, is embarrassed at the moment.

"Lao Yang, I didn't let everyone drink all these wines, don't discourage them from drinking, do what they can, this is my principle."

Zhou Jimin shook his head amusedly, and then said:

"Besides, all of you are my elders, how dare I persuade you to drink? I'm afraid I won't let you drink wine. ”

"Don't talk about this, eat first, and talk while eating."

Seeing him say this, everyone's expressions eased slightly, and they all raised their fast guns and started to start with the food.

Not to mention, the food on the table today is indeed delicious, the main course is bear's paw, and the appearance alone is enough to make people's mouths.

Two grizzly bears, a total of eight bear paws, four at each table.

Lao Lin was curious about where the bear's paw came from, and he was almost speechless when he learned that Zhou Jimin took advantage of the rest day to go to the mountains to dig medicinal herbs.

A good scientific research worker, when he rests, he has a good rest, why do you run into a ravine?

Wouldn't it be better to recharge your energy and do a good job in scientific research when you are waiting for a working day?

Therefore, Lao Lin said that if he really likes bear paws and wild boars so much, he can arrange for someone to hunt next time.

In this regard, Zhou Jimin said that the result is as important as the process.

As a scientific researcher, you also need to combine work and rest.

Because he knew Zhou Jimin's cheekiness, Lao Lin did not continue to dwell on this topic.

Instead, he turned to the tiger bones that Zhou Jimin mentioned just now and asked if they were used to continue soaking tiger bone wine?

Tiger bones are usually used to feed dogs.

But Zhou Jimin is different, the tiger bone wine he brewed is very famous.

"No materials, no soaking."

But I saw him shaking his head, crying and shouting poverty.

Lao Lin waved his hand, saying that this matter was a trivial matter, and if it was still the same material as last time, then he would ask people to help prepare.

Nowadays, tiger bone wine is widely spread at the leadership level, and it is only a matter of material, which is not worth mentioning.

The state attaches great importance to talents, not to mention the rest, the importance of artists alone is too much beyond this era.

The aforementioned Mei Lao, a world-famous master of Peking Opera, has a monthly salary of 2,100 yuan.

In the fifties and sixties, when materials were extremely expensive, the per capita salary was only in single digits, and Mei Lao was able to get a monthly salary of 2,100, which shows that the state attaches great importance to it.

Scientific research workers such as Qian Lao and Cheng Lao, their salary levels are also very high.

In that part of the desert, it was very difficult to transport all kinds of supplies.

However, the country has never been stingy, even if there are still many people in the interior who have one meal a day, but there is never a shortage of supplies for the desert.

Moreover, like Qian Lao and others, they are all protected by two super powerful guards.

Previously, if Zhou Jimin's personal force was not too strong, he would have been assigned as a guard long before he went to the desert.

Therefore, this is why the leaders knew that the Zhou family was living a good life, but not only did they not punish them, but they also encouraged them.

After all, according to the current situation, very few families can eat meat every day.

Not to mention that every time you brew tiger bone wine, all kinds of precious ingredients are available, and there is enough supply.

That's why Lao Lin is just curious about the bear's paws on the table, and is indifferent to other dishes.

In fact, at the state banquet, whether it is entertaining foreign guests or heroes, the food at the Beijing Hotel is absolutely top-notch.

After chatting about the tiger bone wine, Lao Lin didn't say how the tiger bone wine was distributed, so he talked about other things.

The dishes have gone through three rounds, and the wine has passed five flavors.

The atmosphere at the table became lively.

Suddenly, the little goldfish looked at a rib that he was holding in his fast, and there were actually two more things on it.

"Ah, sister-in-law, why are your teeth on it?"

Zhou Qingxian, who was sitting on the side, happened to see this scene, and curiously approached to take a look, and suddenly said in surprise.

As soon as she spoke, she immediately attracted everyone's attention, and even Zhou Jimin and their table were not chatting, but looked at the little goldfish.

Ding Qiunan and Zhou Shuqing stood up and let the little goldfish open its mouth, and sure enough, the two front teeth were missing.

Tooth replacement in a child begins at the age of five or six, and is usually replaced before the age of twelve.

The baby goldfish develops relatively quickly, and has already changed several teeth before.

However, out of the 28 teeth, only the two front teeth in the upper jaw have not been replaced.

Unexpectedly, today, I was eaten by pork ribs without warning.

Everyone looked at the two neatly arranged teeth on the ribs and immediately smiled unkindly.

And the little goldfish himself is happy, because among so many teeth, the two front teeth are quite simple to change, and they don't hurt.

It's just that when she speaks, she wants to leak air, which is very unaccustomed.

While looking at some little goldfish who are not used to chewing food, Zhou Qingxian's four little guys asked while dripping, will they also change their teeth?

Zhou Jimin did not continue to chat with Lao Lin and them, but answered the doubts of the little ones.

During the tooth replacement period, you need to pay attention to observe whether the child's teeth are growing out of misalignment and the phenomenon of retained baby teeth, and try to eat as little sugar as possible, otherwise it is easy to form tooth decay and the teeth will not grow.

Several of the older children have some judgment skills, and they feel as if their father is fooling them.

Because eating sweets is what every child wants to do the most, especially the White Rabbit toffee, Zhou Qingxian and they often eat it.

The neighbor's children also like to eat candy, but they can't eat it often because the neighbor's life is average.

"If you eat sugar so often, then you will be like your sister-in-law, who, both teeth have been gnawed by ribs."

Seeing that the children didn't believe it, Zhou Jimin just smiled, and then pointed at Zhang Wantong and said:

"If you don't believe me, you can ask Aunt Wantong, she is a doctor, she must know better."

Ding Qiunan expressed dissatisfaction with this, and said with white eyes:

"I'm not a doctor, am I?"

The little goldfish also spoke, indicating that she was also studying and was a future doctor.

"Then do you believe what your mother and sister-in-law say?"

With Zhou Jimin's inquiry, Zhou Qingxian's three little guys shook their heads in unison, and Zhou Bingliang, who was an echo worm, shook his head very consciously, and his little appearance was very cute.

There's no way, they are often fooled by Ding Qiunan and the little goldfish, how can Zhou Qingxian still believe their mother and sister-in-law?

So, Zhou Jimin shrugged at Ding Qiunan and the little goldfish, saying that you also saw it, and he didn't mean it.

The two of them immediately stared at Zhou Qingxian and them angrily, and the little goldfish even threatened directly, and quickly changed back!

However, Zhou Qingxian and the others also know what it means to be mighty and unyielding.

Well, in fact, they know that there are guests today, and if there are guests present, whether it is uncles and aunts, or their parents, they will not do anything to them.

They are clever enough to come to the above conclusions.
