In the afternoon, Zhang Yaohua's small boat was finally sold, which was 20,000 yuan cheaper than the original.

Shui Wang's family is not so easy, the price is very low, so angry that Ah Hui put down his words, and would rather put it rusty and not sell it, deceiving people too much.

"Keep it for now, it's good to have a small boat, and you can go around the nearby waters when you're free." Ah Hui said to Zhang Yaohua.

"By the way, what about Ah Jiu?" He asked again.

Zhang Yaohua: "I'm going to pick up his friend." ”

"Arrived too?"

"Hmmm! Waiting in town! ”

About half an hour later, Ah Jiu came back with a spiritual guy named Huang Jiaqiang, and he was still carrying a bucket, as if he had entered the factory to work.

To tell the truth, his original plan was to go to Foshan to work screws for two or three months after cutting sugarcane to earn some wages for the New Year. But since Ah Jiu strongly invited him to come and be a boatman, he also came.

At first, he didn't even know how much he was paid as a boatman, and wondered where he was going to work anyway.

Later, his friend told him about the treatment, and he directly told his family that he would not be at home to manage sugarcane and the like next year.

Is it stupid?

The basic salary is 8,000 yuan, and it is almost food and housing, where to find this kind of job? As for the hard work of being a boatman, what is it not hard to work as a part-time worker?

There is simply not much choice.

"He's my eldest brother, you call Brother Hua! This is Brother Hui, and ......"

The young man hurriedly greeted them one by one: "Brother Hua is good, Brother Hui is good ......, just call me Qiangzi." ”

"Good! Hadron will be a brother in the same boat from now on. Zhang Yaohua patted him on the shoulder.

"Big brother, eat dog meat tonight, Qiangzi He brought a slaughtered dog. Brother Hui, you guys come over and eat together! Ah Jiu said.

Well? Boy!

Guangxi's dog meat is indeed famous, and I heard that there is also a special dog meat festival.

"Let's come along! We gather together in a boat. Zhang Yaohua suggested.

Ah Hui: "Okay! Later, I, Shui Wang, and my cousin came over to help. ”

Dog meat rolls, the gods can't stand steadily!

They are all people who eat dog meat.

It just so happens that it's cold right now, and it's a good time to eat dog meat.

Zhang Yaohua's mother arranged for Ah Jiu's friend to stay, and there was only the last room left, which was a bit messy, and the mosquito net had to be hung up.

In Guangdong, no matter what month or weather, there are still mosquitoes. No mosquito nets, just wait to be bitten!

Compared with being bitten, Zhang Yaohua is more annoyed by the feeling of mosquitoes flying around in his ears.

"Auntie! It's okay, it's okay, I'll do it myself. Hadron hurriedly shouted.

Zhang Yaowei went to chop the dog meat into pieces, and then prepared all kinds of ingredients. Ginger, bay leaves, star anise, tangerine peel, cinnamon, grass fruit, etc.

Not long after, Ah Hui brought Shui Wang and Cheng Rongguang to help and start a fire.

Although I eat dog meat at night, I have to cook something else at home. Children like Zhang Yuanhang, Xuanxuan and other children, they can't eat dog meat.

Zhang Yaohua was also allowed to eat at home after he was in junior high school.

In addition to children, there are also some people who clash with each other, some taboos, and it seems that they can't eat it.

In short, there are sometimes more taboo things in the countryside. Whether it's superstitious or not, or it's better to believe it, you can't really eat yourself for the sake of those two bites.

The one who cooks dog meat is still Ah Jiu.

"Is there a dog bean?" Ah Jiu asked.

"I know who has it, I'll go get some back." Zhang Yaowei said.

Neither their family nor the Shuiwang family grow that kind of bean, but there are people in the village who grow it.

Dog beans are not uncommon in the south, but to eat them, you must be careful, because it is poisonous, and like cassava, it must be cooked, soaked and other treatments.

The correct way is to boil the skin for 5-6 minutes, then remove it and put it in cold water to cool down, peel off the outer layer of bean skin, and then put the peeled pods and beans together in cold water to dry for 1-2 days. In the middle, you should change the water several times, and you can't put it in the sun, otherwise it will deteriorate easily.

It is also quite good to use it to stew dog meat.

"Do you still grow kudzu potatoes?" Ah Hui was surprised when he saw Zhang Yaohua peeling the potatoes again.

Kudzu potato is their name here, and in some places it is called cold potato, which can be eaten as fruit by tearing off the skin, slightly sweet and crisp. When I was a child, someone in the village had to grow this to ensure that it would not grow up.

"Eat? Hadron brought. Zhang Yaohua asked him.

"Come on, I haven't eaten this in a long time. This thing, some people actually call it sweet potato, and I was stunned when I delivered takeaways. Ah Hui said.

Zhang Yaohua peeled the skin and cut off a piece for Ah Hui.

"Sweet potato? Sweet potatoes are sweet potatoes, right? ”

Ah Hui nodded: "Yes!" I've always been a sweet potato called sweet potato. ”

Zhang Yuanhang led three small ones over and wanted to eat.

Zhang Yaohua had to give Xuanxuan, Yongzai, and Jin Sheng a small piece each. Children can't eat more, since it's called cold potatoes, it must be cold, and it's not good for children to eat more, especially raw, diarrhea.

"It's better if this thing has been fried." Hadron reminder.

"It's okay, just eat one and a half."

On Ah Jiu's side, the dog meat was preparing to be cooked. In a hurry, you have to stew slowly, and you must taste it to be delicious.

He asked, "Do you want to leave some white cuts?" ”

Yes?

"Can dog meat still be cut for free?" Cheng Rongguang was shocked.

He knows that Liangguang and Hainan love to eat it, but the white cut dog! There are really people who haven't heard much of it.

"Leizhou's way of eating, Brother Rongguang doesn't know? I've tasted it and it's not bad. Ah Jiu said.

Zhang Yaohua: "Don't do it!" The sauce is very particular, and if you don't get the sauce right, the white cut will be wasted. ”

He had eaten it too, but he was still a little unaccustomed to it. People who like to eat will find it delicious, and there will always be lovers of raw pickles.

The dog meat was stewed outside the house, and after half an hour, the aroma began to spread throughout the village. Some people are also greedy, thinking about this weather, should they also buy a dog to eat?

People are always a little emotional, so they rarely kill their own homes, and they can be sold to other people's homes to kill.

Of course, there will definitely be people who don't care. Home-raised chickens, ducks, pigs, and even cows can be killed and eaten for meat, but can't dogs? Are dogs nobler than other poultry and domestic animals?

Zhang Yaohua went to call the uncle and them over for dinner.

Ah Gong's teeth, dog meat can only be smelled. Besides, Ah Gong doesn't like to eat dog meat, so he can only let him share a table with the children.

The old man is also happy, and his great-grandson and great-granddaughter are surrounded by him and serve him vegetables!

"Let's eat yours! If you don't eat that, sit down for me. Zhang's mother said. Then, clip the old man his favorite dish.

The old man smiled so much that he couldn't see his eyes: "Eat, you can eat." ”

The great-grandson and great-granddaughter are sandwiched, even if it is a bone, you have to take two mouthfuls!

Xiaomei and Ah Zhen, two pregnant women, naturally have to pay attention, it is better not to eat dog meat.

Dog meat is steaming.

Zhang Yaohua's father, uncle, and Uncle Chen toasted each other while talking about what happened in the village recently.
