The news that members of the reclamation team, who had just arrived here today, went out to collect firewood and hunted a roe deer, spread instantly throughout Hewozitun, which was both large and small.
The villagers who heard the news were all dubious and ran to Fang's house to find out whether it was true or false.
When it turned out to be true, everyone's envious and jealous eyes, if it could turn into flames, would definitely burn Xu Yin to the point where her mother wouldn't even recognize her.
"Xiao Xu, you are so lucky!" Aunt Fang gave Xu Yin a thumbs up, "People can do it! If I saw the roe deer, I wouldn't be able to capture it by myself."
"Comrade Xu Yin, what are you going to do with this guy? I have a big stove at home, I can lend it to you!"
"With such a big head, it can last for many days. I have an empty pickle jar at home, and I can lend it to you to pickle the bacon."
"Bacon consumes too much salt. I think it's better to hang it on a fire and smoke it! If it's smoked dryer and smoked on a hanging beam, wouldn't it be more durable than bacon?"
"Roe deer blood is also a good thing. If you don't know how to eat it, just fill it with blood sausage."
"Roe deer bones stewed with radish, the soup is so delicious!"
The women were all talking about ideas for Xu Yin, and they wished that Xu Yin would carry the meat to their house to work on it, so that they could take advantage of the opportunity of lending their household items and taste some meat.
Who has eaten meat since the New Year?
If you have it, you can't bear to eat it. You have to save it for the hardest days of farming to replenish the health of your respective bosses.
Now that there is an opportunity to eat meat, who doesn’t want to fight for it?
Xu Yin said with a smile: "Thank you ladies for your advice, otherwise I really don't know how to deal with it. It's over now! Come on! Let's do a favor together. Although we are not pigs, we will kill them like pigs. We will kill them in a while.
Come and have a bowl of 'pork-killing vegetables'."
Pork-killing vegetables are similar to a large pot of stew, which is to stew miscellaneous bones, head meat, offal, stuffed blood sausage, and auxiliary ingredients such as sauerkraut, radish, vermicelli, etc., although it is not the best pork belly or shank meat.
, but at least it is a big meat dish. In the early spring when it is suddenly warm but then cold, it is such a happy thing to have a mouthful of hot broth!
Everyone happily split up to work.
Mrs. Fang’s family provided the stove and venue, while other families provided some pickled cabbage, vermicelli, potatoes, radishes and other ingredients. Each family brought their own bowls and chopsticks.
The reclamation team is responsible for collecting firewood and fetching water.
Before making the stew, the "roe deer" must be cooked with hot water, which requires a lot of firewood and water.
The ones holding the knife were Aunt Fang's wife and eldest son.
In addition to domestic animals, the father and son have also slaughtered hunted wild boars, roe deer, and wild goats before. At this moment, they have a tacit understanding. One holds down the limbs and head of the "roe deer" to prevent him from suddenly waking up and kicking the child; the other quickly cuts the knife.
.
Aunt Fang quickly handed over a wooden bucket filled with half a bucket of salt water, caught the released blood, and stirred it while catching it to prevent the blood from coagulating. While stirring, she added onions, ginger, garlic, and pepper, and waited until the casings were washed.
Enema of blood sausage.
The aunt methodically directed the women of the same village to fill the meat with blood sausage, and the uncle neatly divided the "roe deer" meat like a butcher undressing a cow.
Xu Yin gave each of the team leader, liaison officer and village chief a piece of meat.
After experiencing several small worlds, I still understand this bit of worldliness.
But others don't have this benefit. Haven't they already eaten the "pork-killing vegetables"? After all, she "hunted" them from the wilderness. What can she eat if they are given away?
However, Aunt Fang still cut a strip of hip meat for her, and also borrowed her large stove to smoke the "roe deer" meat, which would make it easier to store.
"Xu Yin, you must be so lucky! You hunted a lone roe deer right after you arrived." Huang Xiaohong was so envious that her eyes were almost glued to the deer meat in Xu Yin's hand.
Xiao Jing said: "This is due to Xu Yin's strength. If it were you and me, we wouldn't be able to hunt it if we saw it."
"That's true." The other young women felt the same way. They surrounded Xu Yin with smiles and said, "Comrade Xu Yin, when you go to collect firewood from now on, please tell us and we will go with you."
Why do we go together? If we bump into roe deer looking for food and water again, they can help and share some of the meat.
Xu Yin smiled and said nothing.
That night, the reclamation team members had the hottest and most satisfying meal since leaving home.
If there is no table, I will hold it with my hands, if there is no chair, I will squat, hold the hot lunch box and enamel vat, and eat until beads of sweat form on my forehead. It is so delicious and so comfortable!
After getting off the train, the trucks and oxcarts drove us all with runny noses from the cold. After drinking this bowl of hot nourishing soup, our noses were clear, our appetite was whetted, and our throat was no longer dry and itchy.
The team members were all very grateful to Xu Yin, especially the male compatriots. They patted their chests and said, "Comrade Xu Yin, if you are too late to work tomorrow, we will help you!"
Xu Yin smiled and nodded: "Okay."
In fact, there is no need for their help, as long as they don't hold her back.
As soon as work started the next day, the young man who was left far behind looked at me, and I looked at you, with surprised eyes full of disbelief:
How could Xu Yin, a lesbian, swing her hoe like a feather duster? Is her hoe lighter than theirs?
But look at the ground she turned over, it was deeper than any of them. The soil turned up from underneath was dark and much moister than the top soil.
Which ones were plowed by her and which ones were plowed by them, you can tell at a glance just by looking at the color of the soil.
"..."
I was compared to a lesbian.
"Brothers, do you accept it?"
"Not convinced!"
Xu Yin's performance inspired the fighting spirit of her male compatriots.
Everyone spread their arms and started doing it.
Captain Fu, who was teaching the second group how to rake the soil, inadvertently looked up and saw this scene, and couldn't help but wonder:
Did these guys take the wrong medicine? They were so energetic right after they started working? Can their arms be saved tomorrow? They are just as good as they are, and they even have a pretty lesbian...
The "roe deer" meat given by Xu Yin was not for free. Captain Fu hurriedly ran up and shouted at the young man: "Who asked you to dig up the ground like this? You don't want your arms? Slow down, don't you?"
You need to get used to it first? Otherwise, you won’t even be able to pick up a hoe tomorrow, and I don’t have any bruise medicine for you here.”
"Captain, it's not us who are fighting, but who is it...Xu Yin is turning over too fast. If we don't work harder, we will be separated from her by a Milky Way. Is this ridiculous?"
"..." Captain Fu picked at his ears, thinking he heard wrongly, "What did you say?"
"Well, Xu Yin has already flipped over there, and we are still competing here."
"!!!"
Captain Fu pointed to the plowed ground behind Xu Yin and asked in disbelief: "She plowed all this?"
Although they didn’t want to admit it, everyone still nodded honestly:
"Yes, not only can she turn faster, but the depth is also deeper than ours."
"To perform translations like hers, we have to use all our strength to do it."
Fu Rongxing: "..."
Good guy!
He called him good guy!
I thought it was a delicate Chunlan, but I didn’t expect it to be a domineering Bodhi!
