Chapter 435 The waiter’s inner thoughts (two chapters in one chapter)
Yan Yu learned a lesson this time.
She and Fourth Uncle Qi were reluctant to eat the sheep all the way, smearing snow on it over and over to keep it frozen for fear of spoiling it, but they still did the wrong thing.
If the sheep is not bled, its meat will turn red.
Grandma Rong soaked it in cold water to remove the smell.
I added ginger and hawthorn, passed it through water over and over again, and finally fried it with green onions to barely get rid of the mutton smell.
When people from the village came to buy meat, Da Ya also explained to them that the two sheep were not bled when they died, so they smelled fishy and were too bubbley.
Even so, everyone still wanted to buy some mutton snatched from the other side of the mountain. The reputation was extraordinary, but the taste was secondary.
Yan Yu didn't dare to sell these two sheep at a high price, five cents a pound.
Sheep look big, but after removing the layer of sheepskin, they are almost like goats. There is not much meat. Your family has two pounds, and my family has one pound. Each family in the village will get a share, so there will not be much left.
The rest was wrapped up by Butcher Guan. The families who settled in Xiao'an Village later had poor families. Although the taste was bad, it was cheap.
Da Ya also got up early and went out.
She also has little sisters to inform.
Seeing once is better than hearing it a hundred times.
Beirong came and went like the wind, and they frequently attacked, not just because they had good horses.
There are those lost cows and sheep, let's help find them... You say this is such a good thing, everyone is happy!"
"Besides, there is a future for Uncle Hu and the others here. The eldest brother of the Crown Prince has promised us a general banner. However, Uncle Hu and the others are relatively junior and cannot give it to them right away. It also depends on their performance. If they have military merit, this
The position of the general flag may be removed early. On the contrary, if the performance is mediocre, the general flag may be yellowed.
Village Chief Luo felt as if no one except the three of them had used their chopsticks.
Li Xuemei was funny, "Aren't you going to go into the mountains to pick mushrooms tomorrow? Are you going to Fucheng to measure the shop? Do you still want to go to Huju to find your father? Your day is really full, and I don't object to your troubles, but you can run away
Do you have to come over?"
Yan Yu nodded repeatedly: "Aunt Rong is just there to help take a look, so as not to come back after picking poisonous mushrooms."
Yan Yu looked at the sky.
Seeing Qing'er's face full of longing, she looked at her pitifully.
Grandma Rong said she wanted to go too.
As soon as the front foot entered his house, the back foot Qi Da brought steamed buns.
The news will spread throughout the village in a very short period of time.
Yan Yu couldn't wait to take it, moved closer to the oil lamp, and looked at the ten lines at a glance.
She didn't even need to set the alarm clock, she would stand up whenever the rooster in her backyard tugged its neck and called her.
When he brought someone home, he didn't want someone to choke on the steamed buns, so Village Chief Luo asked his eldest daughter-in-law to weigh out two dishes.
Those Beirong soldiers only gather in groups when they are plundering the pass. They usually live scattered. Defeating them one by one will also reduce the pressure on our border towns in disguise.
"I want to go too." Qing'er said softly.
After the two sisters walked home and had breakfast, the outside of the hospital gradually became lively.
Village Chief Luo got angry after hearing this.
The Qi family is so generous when eating, they go directly to the basin.
The cat moved away in disgust, and stayed tight to cooperate, imitating the cow's behavior and not moving, and put its ears as far back as possible to make it easier to put on the square scarf...
She opened the box and let Yan Yu see it.
Li Xuemei still didn't speak.
Li Xuemei glanced at her, "Fooling your mother?"
The matter of Beirong is very important and needs to be settled early. Although I think those Beirong will not leave in the short term and it can be taken as a precaution, it is better to settle it quickly.
Li Xuemei looked away and fumbled for a box.
"Haha! Is it really edible? There are a lot of them in the mountains, a large area, but the location is a bit far in, so it's hard to find because it's so deep. But it's okay. I remember that place. Oh, I can't leave it in vain. Tomorrow,
Tomorrow I will take people into the mountains to pick them back."
Qi Si didn't know where to say it, so he asked village chief Luo and he answered.
She also talked about what the grassland was like, how difficult it was to hide people, etc., and made the difficulties clear.
"Mom, how is my shop?" Yan Yu asked.
Grandma Rong smiled and nodded.
"...There is snow on the ground, and I can clearly see any wild animals in the mountains when I walk over. There are a lot of them. Uncle Qi and I don't dare to sleep. There are wolves howling at night, but it's okay. It sounds pretty good.
Far away, never really encountered it.
Finally, he told his plan. He wanted to tell the news to the elder, see if the government office had any ideas, and then let Mr. Xue Qi know...
Li Xuemei stared: "Border troops?"
"I'm not stupid, and of course I won't use the people in our village to fight with the Beirong, but I found out about the movements of a small group of Beirong, does it count as merit? When I tell General Xue Qi, I won't believe that he won't be tempted.
Paying a head for money is considered military merit, cattle, sheep, horses and food...what kind of things are not rare for people!
Title deed!
She knew this box very well. Her master brought it back from the palace, and after taking the money inside, the box became useless. Her father took it home, and her mother used it to store valuable things at home.
But after staying with Xiao Er for a long time, Qi Si also learned some things.
It is very difficult to raise the horses that were captured before in Xiaoan Village, especially this winter, when fodder is a big problem.
That's right, Yan Yu's eyes not only saw cattle and sheep, but also horses.
Bring back more cattle, sheep and horses, suck!
"Are you still thinking about going?" Li Xuemei flicked the wick of the oil lamp.
The title deed to her shop!
Go to Luo's house first and then Cui's house, just run away from these two families.
Li Xuemei really convinced her daughter, she gained strength and was full of energy.
Yan Yu said coquettishly: "Mom, look at how Fourth Uncle Qi and I went on this trip. We were not prepared for anything. We brought the cattle and sheep back safely. We really prepared well. I am confident that I can eat that Beirong."
"
As soon as Qi Si left the door of Yan's house, he was blocked by Village Chief Luo. He followed him all the way home, watched him eat, and took him back to his house directly after the meal.
There is a shortage of horses in the pass.
Aunt Rong handed it to Li Xuemei and nodded to indicate that it was edible and non-toxic.
He thanked Village Chief Luo and planned to buy more meat from Luo San in the future.
"Why do the border troops have to take you with them? They can't do it alone?" Li Xuemei poured cold water on her.
These days, just a few words?
She turned around and left the house, and returned a short while later, bringing the yellow mushrooms she mentioned.
"That can't be done. General Xue Banner doesn't have enough manpower, and our frontier army is short of men." Of course, Yan Yu would not make a blind move, and thought this through. "He has to leave people to guard the guard post, and there are not many people who can be mobilized.
"The person who is borrowing from the guard station next to me is not as good as the people from our village. We will not compete with him for military glory. All the heads of Beirong will belong to him. All we want are cattle, sheep and horses."
Grandma Rong also packed up and went home.
She can stand up to several people, which is called vivid and full of emotion.
Yan Yu prioritized things.
Yan Yu smiled awkwardly and said: "Mom, I really thought about it seriously. On the surface, I just went to get some cattle and sheep, but in fact, this will cause a trade-off.
After a while, I put the hair square bandana on Gouzhu and Maomao’s heads...
After a night of reflection, Yan Yu felt that the time had come.
Without any nonsense, I invite everyone to come into the mountain.
Mushrooms can't wait either. Fungi are so delicate. It's best to pick them as soon as they grow. A day's delay will affect the taste.
"Wow! I really have a shop!" Yan Yu wanted to roll over in excitement. She was worried that the land deed would be accidentally damaged. She hurriedly said: "Mom, you better keep it for me. Just give me the key. And
Silver, haha, I will go there tomorrow, measure the house first, sketch it out, and then ask the uncles in the village to help with the renovation."
Li Xuemei opened the box, found a piece of paper and handed it to her.
The villagers had a rough idea.
…
Qi Si was in a hurry and did not dare to eat more. Mrs. Qi felt sorry for him, so she picked out all the remaining steamed buns in the pot and wrapped them for Qi Da to send.
There are many people who want to go into the mountains to pick mushrooms.
Mom, guess what, there are still mushrooms in the mountains at this time, one big one, but the color is a bit yellow, not like the ones we picked before. It looks edible to me, but I am not sure, so I use a straw mat
I picked one and put it in my basket. Aunt Rong, please turn around and help me see if it is edible." She said to Aunt Rong.
Wear clothes and go out without washing your face.
Li Xuemei looked at her daughter carefully. In the past, this child didn't put in all her efforts in studying. Looking at these tricks, if she studies hard, she won't be able to pass the exam in any school.
Both adults and children.
When I got home, I was still thinking about running to the mountains.
Aunt Rong also carried a basket. As soon as they came out of the yard, they saw that the people in the village were all dressed in the same way.
If there are any more horses, give them all to Mr. Xue, and Xiaoan Village will need cattle and sheep.
You really can't run away.
In the final analysis, the three brothers of the Qi family are just sincere and slow to react, not stupid. They can figure things out if they think slowly.
Well, the border army will take the big head, and we will have a sip of soup and help place a cold arrow next to it...
Yan Yu became happy.
Yan Yu:Gah!
Yan Yu tied the two baskets together and put them on the donkey.
Yan Yu narrowed his eyes and smiled: "I think so too. If Mr. Xue Qi refuses to admit his account, I have to have a good talk with the master. If the government can spare some manpower, let the master also get involved."
Yan Yuchang's idea is very beautiful, and he also feels that there is a lot of room for maneuver in this matter.
There were several hoes and bamboo crossbows in one basket, and quilts in the other basket, and Qing'er was carried in.
We live in Huju, close to Beirong, so we have to make more plans.
If the former Qi Si had resolutely listened to my mother's words, he would never have used chopsticks.
Yan Yu's eyes widened when he saw the wooden box.
No one can say what the future will be like, but I hope I can get promoted as soon as possible."
Now Yan Yu started to talk about the scene in the mountains.
One moment, he performs a show on the kang where he lies motionless in the snow, then strikes out with thunder, picks up the calf and runs away...
His expression slowly softened, and he thought for a moment and said, "Your uncle is not here. Please ask your father about this matter."
But she couldn't say these words. She could speak freely when she and her husband closed the door last night, but in front of outsiders, she still had to keep a guard on her mouth.
Li Xuemei had to admit that her daughter thought enough and everything she said made sense.
Village Chief Luo always knew that the three Qi brothers could eat, but was this a bit too much?
She turned over, her thick long hair hanging down naturally, making her face look no bigger than a palm.
She was carrying the iron rod herself, and Da Ya also had a wooden stick in her hand.
Yan Yu's voice immediately dropped: "How can we rely on our words? There are still border troops."
It was getting late, so Da Ya took Qing'er back to the house to sleep.
Rather than snatching back some food, it is better to say that we picked up some food.
"The wheel of history tells us that only by defeating the enemy can real peace be achieved."
Seeing Qi Si take out the steamed bun and start chewing it, does this mean he is not full?
At this moment, Village Chief Luo felt that it was really difficult for the old girl of the Qi family!
When I look at my sons and grandsons, I immediately like them...
It's a different story on Yan Yu's side.
"You said that there are about a hundred people. Without the advantage of the arrow tower, how can you eat them? Do you rely on your mouth?" Li Xuemei didn't smile at all.
We can eliminate the enemy in advance, harvest cattle, sheep and horses, and maybe even get some food back..."
Qing'er's eyes suddenly brightened: "Qing'er is obedient and will not go to the ground."
Da Ya reached out and touched the big plump mushroom, eager to try it.
There were two pots of steamed buns, stacked high, and two pots of vegetables. One pot was fried with mutton with green onions, and the other pot was stewed with Chinese cabbage.
Only Li Xuemei and Yan Yu were left in the room.
Because we have to walk a lot of mountain roads, there are many people like her family leading donkeys and mules, and there are also few girls, and more half-year-old boys.
On the way, she and Fourth Uncle Qi walked in the mountains for a few days, and searched on the grassland for a few days. They told the villagers how to keep up with those Beirong soldiers, counted the tents, and roughly estimated the number of people.
During the battle of Huju, the reinforcements and the Beirong troops were close at hand, and they pursued them, but almost failed to return.
They were not looking for mushrooms, but wanted to know the situation on the other side of the mountain. They asked Qi Si to speak. The people who listened were anxious and dry. After walking for more than ten days and almost half a month, they asked Qi Si to speak and finished in a few words.
.
"You are still young, so you wrote my name." Li Xuemei said: "He Zhongren collected 20 taels of middle school fees, and the procedures were all handled by Mr. Xue Qi. I, the head of Tuoluo Village, helped run a
The trip cost a total of 382 taels. Of the 400 taels you put here, there are only 18 taels left. Now, they are all here."
Their family's money and the title deeds to the forest land are all here.
She thought for a while and said: "You can go, but you can't go to the ground, you can only stay in the basket."
Yan Yuke always remembered the uncle's words about Guanzhou's possible conscription.
"Xiaoer, I will go with you."
Village Chief Luo also came, and all the village elders were not left behind.
"Hehe!" Yan Yu only smiled but said nothing.
The border troops earn military merits, and if the government officials leave, they can get some benefits. As for Xiao'an Village, hey, he is just being taken to drink soup.
This was not the time when Beirong came to the village. She had to keep her mouth shut to take care of things, so she rushed forward. This time, she felt that it was more appropriate for her father to step in. After all, at her age, it was really hard for her to open her mouth and shut up to kill Beirong.
Too cruel.
She should be a Yan family waiter who is strong, courageous, somewhat clever, good at settling accounts, making a small amount of money, and good at studying.
At most, by chance, I brought back some cattle and sheep, and what not, I might have accidentally killed a few more Beirongs or something like that.
Hehe, in short, keep a low profile, be low-key.
Correct typos first and then correct them~
