Chapter 189: Picnic
asked the guards to help carry the deer down the mountain, and asked Ah Che with a depressed face: "Why haven't you seen you for a few days, your archery skills have increased so much?" ”
Ah Che said He Zao's opinion plainly.
Han Lanshuo touched his chin and thought thoughtfully: "This country girl has a point...... halfway through her words, and then she became unhappy again: "Then according to what she said, aren't those hunters stronger than those of us who learn archery!" ”
He snorted twice, expressing his displeasure.
Ah Che smiled, with a somewhat helpless expression: "I didn't say that, just to remind you, don't rely too much on the guards." ”
Han Lanshuo thought for a moment and didn't make a sound.
But looking at that look, it seems that he has listened to Ah Che's words.
He had a special identity and didn't dare to appear too much in Lujia Village, so after breaking up with Ah Che at the bottom of the mountain, he went back from another direction, and Ah Che took a complete deer and walked towards his house.
The deer skins that he hunted before were all destroyed, and only this one was intact, so Ah Che had the idea of making a small leather coat for He Zao. Moreover, this deer is about ten pounds, and how to eat it is also a problem.
Of course he won't sell it, so he has to rely on the popularity of the He family's three rooms to give it away.
As soon as he told He Zao's family about his request, He Zao's eyes widened first: "You are crazy, this venison is so expensive, you are willing to give it all away, if you don't win, I can't bear it!" ”
Other members of the He family: "......"
Ache: "......"
He Laosan was very embarrassed for his little girl's cheekiness, apologized to Ah Che again and again, and scolded He Zao in a low voice: "Zao'er, why are you talking?" This is someone else's Young Master Gu's thing, listen to others' disposal, don't talk too much! ”
After being scolded, He Zao glared at Ah Che angrily, as if it was all his fault.
The latter is funny.
He thought for a moment and asked, "What good idea do you have?" ”
He Zao's eyes lit up: "It's cold this weather, let's have a picnic and roast venison by the way." It happened that the fourth brother and Qibao Xiu Muli the day after tomorrow. ”
"Picnic?" Ah Che didn't understand the meaning of the word.
He Zao was already in high spirits, and pulled He Laosan to go to the iron shop to make a set of barbecue iron tools.
It's a pity that now that the weather is cold, you can put the venison, otherwise when you can go to a picnic, it will also stink.
After spending half a tael of silver, the blacksmith made a few iron supports that could be supported according to the requirements of He Zao, and then put a flat hollow barbecue rack on it, prepared a few wooden clips, and brought a pair of bowls and chopsticks, bought a few cold dishes in the town restaurant, boiled hawthorn tea, stewed a pot of small rice, kneaded it into a rice ball, then brought a small half of venison, invited Mr. Jin, and drove the ox cart to the reservoir.
Layers of red rocks, wild flowers all over the mountains, clear turquoise water, and the sudden acceleration of white waterfalls are very famous scenic spots in later generations.
The He family said they were very satisfied, but the only thing that was not perfect was that most of the road up the mountain was not developed, and the ox cart could not come up halfway, so they had to rely on manpower to move these things up.
Sibao was so tired that he collapsed on the soft moss, out of breath: "I said early, why do I think you are deliberately retaliating?" ”
The reason is that they only left half a deer for themselves, and the rest was given to several good friends in the village, the old house and Lu Lizheng were the ones who gave the most, the Liu family, the second grandmother's family, and the little satin family, each family almost divided two or three catties.
He Zao has always been in pain.
The appearance of this picnic was also chosen by her, originally the four treasures and seven treasures were selected in the small cliff under the big ant mountain, the road is flat, the stream is shallow, there are many white rocks, and the scenery is also very beautiful. But out of his fascination with the scenic spot, he tried his best to overcome public opinion and had to come to the reservoir. And swore that since the Han family's horses could come up, then their cattle could also come up.
But it turns out that there is a reason why the cow is not as good as the horse, up to the half-center, the slope is shaking, and the scalper at home is shrunk, and he doesn't look at it and move a step up, no way, He Laosan carefully led it back.
Ah Che silently put the half of the venison on his back on the ground, went to the pool and washed his hands.
Jin Juren's physical fitness was a little better, but he was also out of breath, and most of his shirt was soaked with sweat.
He Zao was even more tired, if there weren't too many outsiders, she would have been able to lie directly on the ground.
Qibao was the most relaxed one in comparison, jumping up and giggling: "Dad, mother, sir, I'm going to collect firewood!" ”
Now it is the Mid-Autumn Festival, and the northern mushrooms on the mountain have been fully ripe, so He went to the shade of the trees to pinch a lot of northern mushrooms, and roasted them later.
Because I want to eat barbecue, He Zao prepared the sauce before, of course, this sauce is not sold on the market, He Zao himself does not understand very well, but he also knows how much to add ginger, onions, garlic and red pepper, and the final boiled out of the sauce is not unpalatable, much more delicious than the general home sauce, because at this time salt is expensive, and there are few vegetables in winter, so every household has the habit of putting down the sauce, which is very similar to the bean paste of later generations, and the most obvious feature is a salty. However, He Zao made the large sauce, but it is full of color and flavor, with a spicy fragrance and a reddish color.
He Laosan tasted it and said that he would eat it with this sauce in the future.
He Zao was very proud.
I didn't have a brush for sauce, so I used sorghum cooking instead, and I took scissors to remove the residue left on the iron rack after grilling.
The wild venison on the back mountain is of good quality, and the barbecue can remove the fishy smell to the greatest extent, and it is smeared with a layer of sauce, which is very delicious.
Regardless of gender, young and old, everyone eats a little disregard for their image.
He Zao also took a lot of dried sweet potatoes and dried potatoes, and also burned them together to eat, which tasted very good.
Drink another bowl of warm hawthorn soup, well, this day can be worth the gods.
Because of the interest, He Laosan personally made a straw basket, caught two big-tailed fish, scraped the skin of the gills, cut it into thin skin and burned it to eat, but because of the fishy smell, Chen and He Chun'er only tasted it, and the rest were eaten by a few carnivores.
Venison is good, but you can't eat too much.
When it was almost finished, there was still a small half of venison left.
He was ready to go back and let He Laosan and Chen smoke the remaining venison and fry it later.
The countrymen are poor, and in order to survive the winter, they know a little bit about the craftsmanship of smoked meat, and He Zao doesn't know anything about this.
I only know that the meat is smeared with salt and smoked with fireworks, which can be preserved.
The weather is cool, the water is high, and after eating in full swing, the group sits on the rocks or moss or trees and enjoys the beautiful scenery.
Jin Juren was a literati, and he also read a landscape poem in a very emotional manner.
Forgive He Zao for being a vulgar person, but I just think that this poem is well done, and I forgot about it after listening to it.
