Lan Xi took Xu Shasha to bring the big bags into the house. The two elders were already lighting a fire in the stove house.

My daughter was supposed to go home this Saturday, but when Lan Xi went to find her, she said that she would have to make up classes tomorrow and couldn't go back. So Lan Xi got a photo from her. Then they left the school and rushed back to the mountains.

Lan Xi took the dishes into the kitchen, and when he saw his parents burning the fire, he went to open the pot and add water to it. It turned out that there was no water in the tank. Quickly turn on the faucet on the water tank and turn on the water. The village is small, but every household is connected to running water. The well is on the edge of a cliff at the east end of the village.

Xu Shasha walked in from outside, looked at her phone and said, "Sister Lan, it's five o'clock." Why is it getting dark? In our county, it will be at least half an hour before it gets dark. I didn't expect the weather in the mountains to be different from ours in the city. It's like not sleeping a sun. Oh, by the way, Sister Lan, I'll leave tomorrow morning after dinner, or..."

Liang's father said: "You have to eat before leaving." I've discussed it with your aunt, and I'll get up early tomorrow morning to kill a chicken and entertain you. Oh, our chickens and ducks are locked up in the mountains behind the house. When I wasn't at home these days, I asked someone to take care of it. ”

Liang Mu said: "Why don't you go catch a chicken and kill it now." Anyway, it's just black. Make it. ”

Liang's father felt that what his wife said made sense, and immediately nodded in agreement. Then the old couple rushed to the mountains behind the house to catch chickens.

Xu Shasha wanted to go with her. But the two elders were not allowed, saying that the road behind the house was not easy to walk. Xu Shasha gave up. After the two elders left, they quickly sat down on the stool in front of the stove, picked up an iron clip and stuffed a piece of dry wood into the red stove. In an instant, black smoke rose from this piece of dry wood, and then the fire burned vigorously.

Lan Xi mixed water into the pot. Then go to the rice washing to cook. I came to live last time, so I naturally know where the rice tank is. Without hesitation, go into the back room and find the rice bowl. Wash the rice cooker and scoop the rice. After plugging in the power, I felt that it was okay, so I came to the stool in front of the stove and sat down, and chatted with Xu Shasha.

Suddenly, a young and beautiful little daughter-in-law appeared at the door of the kitchen, looked in and looked at the two girls from the city, smiled gently, and said, "Isn't this Lanxi girl?" What wind has blown you into our mountains? ”

Xu Shasha looked back at the little daughter-in-law and said, "I haven't slept yet, but I borrowed Dr. Liang's east wind." ”

With a kind smile on her face, the little daughter-in-law walked in and said, "Oh, this beauty is..."

Lan Xi had already recognized her, she was the daughter-in-law of the family next door who had just passed the door, and her name was Shanli Hong.

Shanli Hong is a year older than her, and the last time she came, Lan Xi treated her as a sister-in-law. So she quickly got up and got her a stool.

Shan Lihong said: "Sister, you're welcome, I'll just stand." Oh, Brother Liang Huan. Didn't he come back with you? I heard that he went to work in the hospital, it was really fake. ”

After speaking, he looked at Xu Shasha who was burning the fire. A smug smile tugged at the corner of his mouth.

In her opinion, Xu Shasha's appearance is comparable to her. But her figure is not as enchanting as her. This girl must like to eat meat. I don't like to eat greens. She likes to eat vegetables when she is red in the mountains, and she usually doesn't like to eat meat very much.

Lan Xi brought a chair and placed it behind Shan Lihong. Shan Lihong said thank you, sat down in the chair, and crossed Erlang's legs to talk to the two girls in the city. As soon as he was about to say what he was going to say, he heard a rooster crow outside. Stunned for a moment, he looked up at the kitchen door. But I saw my aunt walking in with a little hen.

Shanli Hong called out to her aunt. Liang's mother smiled and responded enthusiastically.

Shan Li Hong said: "Auntie." Leave the task of killing chickens to me. I haven't killed a chicken in a few days, and I don't know if the technique is rusty. As soon as the words came out, they attracted the attention of Xu Shasha and Lan Xi.

The two of them didn't dare to kill the chicken. Sometimes when guests come to the house, they don't dare to kill the chickens with their own hands, but go to the market to buy slaughtered chickens. Anyway, I always feel like I can't get started. It's like red in the mountains, and when you say it's slaughtered, it's slaughtered, and the method is not ambiguous at all.

After the water in the pot boiled, Yamasato Red directly took a kitchen knife and slaughtered the little hen. The skillful technique is breathtaking, and the attack is ruthless. Not at all pity for the life of the little hen. With a single knife, he wiped the neck of the little hen.

Even Liang's father, who was standing at the door of the kitchen and watching, was taken aback by her decisive behavior.

With a snap, he threw the little hen that was slowly swallowing to the ground. Mother Liang hurriedly came out and threw the chickens into a small wooden bucket, and then poured boiling water into it. Xu Shasha was dumbfounded, but now she found that her aunt poured boiling water on the little hen's body, and she was terrified. Fortunately, the hen was already dead. Otherwise, it will be even worse.

Lan Xi said: "Mom." Go and rest, I'll just come. ”

Liang Mu said: "How can you, let's come with me." You don't know how to get chicken feathers. ”

Xu Shasha opened her mouth to think about something, but was robbed of her words by Shan Lihong.

Shan Lihong said: "Auntie, leave it to me." I'll take care of it. ”

Liang's mother glanced up at her niece and daughter-in-law and said, "No problem, I'll give you the task." I'll stay and have a glass of wine with my aunt later. Thanks to your mom for helping me say hello these days too. Oh, Yasanarihong, isn't your mother home today? ”

Yamasato was very happy after taking over the task of plucking chicken feathers. While the chicken feathers are hot, answer the questions raised by the aunt.

"Oh, my mom went to her mother's house in Dongzi Village, and she won't be back until tomorrow. I'm home alone. My dad went out on business, and I heard that he was going to Lincheng. My husband and a few guys from the village also went to Lincheng this morning. I heard that they contracted a construction site over there. When it was arranged, he came back to pick me up. ”

After hearing Shanlihong's words, Liang's mother didn't say anything.

Father Liang didn't have much to say. Shanli Hong is a good woman, not to mention filial piety to her parents, but also to the old people in the village very respectful. If you have a background, you have already entered the village organization. It's a pity that there is no background. It's impossible to join a party.

Lan Xi came out to help. The mountains are red but they don't let her, and they want her to rest. Lan Xi had no choice but to get other dishes.

Xu Shasha lit a fire in front of the stove. The night outside was getting darker. The wind from the mountains blows in through the doorway, giving it a chilly feeling. Yamalihong brought in the plucked chickens. Add clean hot water to the barrel and wash the chickens. Liang's mother found scissors and handed them to Shanli Hong. Shan Lihong used scissors to disemboweling the chicken, his hands and feet were very sharp, and the task was completed in a blink of an eye. From killing chickens to throwing chickens on the cutting board to change knives. It took less than ten minutes in total.

.....

The meal came out, and it was exactly six o'clock.

Lan Xi took a bottle of wine from the car and asked Shanli Red if he drank alcohol. Shan Lihong said that he would accompany him to the end.

Liang's mother knew that there was a good amount of red wine in the mountains, so she pulled her daughter-in-law aside to explain the situation. Lan Xi said that it was okay, and he just had a drink with her, and he wouldn't get drunk. Liang's mother was relieved.

Xu Shasha hadn't drunk for a while, so she couldn't miss this opportunity. It's like red in the mountains, you have a cup of me, and I will do it to the end. As a result, she was drunk, but there was nothing wrong with the red in the mountains. Lan Xi praised the amount of red wine in the mountains and the first in the world. Yamasato Hong smiled and explained that she was born to drink, and that no woman in the village could drink her.

Xu Shasha, who was drunk and hazy, shouted for another drink, but was snatched away by Lan Xi.

Yamasato Red hurried to serve her rice. Xu Shasha, who was not too sober-minded, said thank you, picked up the chopsticks and put the rice in her mouth, but the food fell on the table. Liang's mother was worried that something would happen to Xu Shasha, so she hurried to cook her sobering soup. Only then did Yamali Red realize that he shouldn't drink so much. He put down the dishes and chopsticks and ran to the kitchen to light the fire. When Liang's mother saw her coming, she said that she would not drink so much with the guests in the future. Yamari Hong knew that she was wrong, and hurriedly said sorry twice.

Father Liang has been watching from the side, he has recently had some minor physical problems and does not dare to drink. Therefore, tea is used instead of wine to accompany the guests.

Lan Xi said: "Dad." Sister-in-law in the mountains told me before dinner that she wanted to go to the county seat with us tomorrow. I asked her what she was going to do in town, but she wouldn't tell me. But I think my sister-in-law has something hidden in her heart. Why don't you find a chance to ask your sister-in-law later? Okay? ”

Father Liang was taken aback and said, "There is still such a thing, so why didn't you say it earlier." ”

Lan Xi explained, just remembered. Father Liang closed his mouth and said nothing.

Xu Shasha's head was a mess, and she felt that Lan Xi and Liang Huan's father were spinning around the house. Shook her head.

The moonlight rises from behind the mountains in the east. The pine tree in front of the house illuminated it.

A ray of moonlight came in through the crack in the door and happened to shine on Xu Shasha's face.

After getting drunk, Xu Shasha didn't know that it was moonlight, thought it was a monster, and reached out to catch it, but the moonlight jumped directly onto the back of her hand. She screamed in fright.

Lan Xi said that it was moonlight, and he couldn't catch it. Father Liang saw that Xu Shasha was drunk like this, and he was really afraid that she would have some accidents, so he hurriedly ran to the kitchen and asked if the sobering soup was ready. Liang's mother replied that it was still burning. Shan Lihong hurriedly put down the iron clip in his hand and ran into the back room to check the situation. Fortunately, Xu Shasha was just lying on the table and there was no accident. Despite this, she was still very uneasy and regretted that she should not have drunk with her. In case she gets drunk, she is the one who is most responsible. When the time comes, I can't afford to demolish the house.

Lan Xi said: "It's okay, she has been drunk like this more than once, as long as she drinks sobering tea, she will be fine." Sister-in-law, don't worry. ”

Despite what Lan Xi said, Yamari Red was still not very relieved, and ran to the kitchen again to light the fire. I didn't expect my uncle to sit in front of the stove, so it was not good to go again. So he returned to the back room to take care of Xu Shasha. I've only been drinking, but I haven't eaten yet. Eat the meal first. Grab the dishes and chopsticks and go to serve the rice. Lan Xi hadn't finished eating yet, she was picking up vegetables.

Shan Li Hong said: "Lanxi girl." How long has Assistant Xu been with you? ”

Lan Xi said: "It's been two or three years. She has been my assistant since she joined the company, and she has been until today. ”

"So, how much does she earn a month?"

Lan Xi told her that it was ten thousand three. Yamazari Red was startled.

"Ah, she's paid so much. So, how much is the average employee of your company a month? ”

Lan Xi stared at Shan Lihong, as if she understood her intention to go to the city with her tomorrow.

"For ordinary employees, the monthly salary is about 4,060. Including the year-end bonus, it must be five or six thousand a month. ”

After speaking, he put down the dishes and chopsticks and stared at the red in the mountains.

Shan Lihong put a piece of chicken in the bowl and said, "Then, if my sister-in-law wants to ask you to introduce me to a job, can you agree?" After saying that, he stuffed the chicken in his mouth and took a bite.

Lan Xi said: "Didn't you say that when your husband comes back, you will go with him to work on the construction site in Lincheng." ”

"Yes, my husband has this meaning, but he also said that if I can find a better job, then I don't have to go to the construction site with him to suffer." So I wanted to ask my sister-in-law to help my sister-in-law. Rest assured, my mountain red work is absolutely top-notch, and I won't let you down. ”

Xu Shasha got up and said, "Sister Lan, you agreed." ”

Lan Xi felt strange and said Aren't you drunk?

Xu Shasha's mind was already clear, and she sat up straight and said, "I'm drunk, but there is always a time to be sober." What do you say, sister-in-law in the mountains. "Don't talk about it here, pick up a piece of local chicken with chopsticks, stuff it in your mouth, chew it twice, and swallow it.

Liang's mother came in with a decanting soup, and she was relieved to find that Xu Shasha was fine.
