Chapter 338 Just ate tiger gall
Riding Zhuifeng, the two of them returned all the way to Caodianzi.
Chen Xiuqing and Liang Kangbo were shoveling the blind man's oily skin in front of the cellar.
Lu Lu was injured and had to do physical work such as shoveling oil skins from bears. The apologetic Liang Kangbo did not rush back and took over the job. Chen Xiuqing, who had nothing to do, also helped.
Oiling the skin off the skin is something that almost every hunter will do, so that the skin can be dried and preserved in the shade. Otherwise, if it cannot be dried for a long time, all it will get is a pile of rancid smell.
After Chen Xiuqing opened the fence gate and Lu Lu rode Zhui Feng and led six dogs in, Lu Lu resisted the pain in his legs and jumped off the horse first, and then Chen Xiuyu dismounted.
He didn't want Chen Xiuyu to worry too much, just to prove that there was no big problem with him.
After taking off the saddle, Chen Xiuyu snatched it away: "Why are you trying? You were obviously grinning in pain when you jumped, and you're still pretending!"
Uh... discovered.
Lu Lu could only smile awkwardly: "It's really not a big problem, just take care of it for a few days! Well... when the injury heals, I'll just cut the rice with you."
In a few days, the rice will be harvested. At this time, the fields have been drained, and the harvest season has begun.
"You'd better take good care of yourself. I'm here to help with the harvesting of rice. I'll start with your family's harvesting!" Liang Kangbo took over the conversation and said, "Brother and sister, Brother Lu's injury is indeed my fault. If he hadn't saved me, he would have done it."
With Brother Lu's ability, the cannon egg can't do anything to him, blame me, blame me!"
He was worried that Chen Xiuyu would blame Lu Lu for this matter, and he was also worried that there would be a estrangement because of it, so he was busy apologizing.
Liang Kangbo was also frightened when he thought of the situation when Lu Lu was being picked up by the cannon egg and thrown wildly, flung away, and being chased by the cannon egg.
At that critical moment, he did something stupid and felt very guilty.
Similar words were already told to Chen Xiuyu when he and Chen Xiuqing brought the bear skins and bear meat and met Chen Xiuyu, and he still couldn't help but say it again now.
"Brother Liang, why are you talking about this again? I don't mean to blame you. Brother Lu has always told me that he recognizes you as his brother, so shouldn't he do something for his elder brother?
Although I am a woman, when I was young, my dad often told us, my brother and sister, that being a human being should be affectionate and righteous. Brother Lu is a very affectionate person. He always said that friendship is priceless. Since he recognizes you, you must be the same. This
There is nothing else to worry about... I believe that if Brother Lu encounters the same thing, Brother Liang, if you are on the side, you will not stand idly by and count on Brother Liang to take care of you in the future!"
Chen Xiuyu heard what Lu Lu had said about Liang Kangbo's temperament, and she also knew that Lu Lu had a heart-to-heart relationship with him. Even though she felt a little resentful about Lu Lu's injury, she was smart enough not to say it out loud.
What's more, when the two of them got married, Liang Kangbo specially brought the fish with his injuries and brought his wife to help. When the house was built, he didn't invite anyone. He also specially brought two roe deer to join in the fun.
.
It is not difficult to see that Liang Kangbo also wanted to have a true friendship with Lu Lu.
This is a gunner who has long been famous in Huilongtun, and his status in Huilongtun is not simple.
Of course, when Chen Xiuyu spoke on the phone, the focus was still on the last sentence.
That's what she really wanted to say.
There is an old saying, "If you often walk in the mountains, even if there are fierce tigers and wolves?" It means that people who often walk in the mountains are not afraid of fierce tigers and wolves.
But this is not the case!
Only people who often walk around in the mountains know how to be afraid.
Because of fear, they all become extremely cautious and try their best to master various techniques to deal with wild beasts and various situations. Even so, there are still unpreventable accidents, and that is the real fear.
Living in this wilderness, we cannot do without the wilderness and these fears. How can disasters fall from the sky?
More help is always good!
There is no free gain without effort. Like Lu Lu, she always believes that there is mutuality between people.
Not only Liang Kangbo, but also Lu Lu himself were very surprised by Chen Xiuyu's few words. But if you think about it carefully, the reason why the buying station at home was so prosperous in your previous life was because of Chen Xiuyu's influence on the people in the village.
The personal relationships built through assistance have won people's hearts.
Now when he heard her mention his father-in-law who had passed away long ago, Lu Lu remembered that after being married for so long, he still hadn't even visited the grave.
"Okay, just like you said, I won't mention this matter!"
Liang Kangbo felt relieved after hearing this. The knot in his heart immediately disappeared, and he felt much more relaxed.
Chen Xiuyu also laughed: "That's it...Okay, you guys are chatting here, you and Qingzi haven't eaten yet, I'm going to cook for you, you have been busy all day, you must be very hungry!"
"Then I'm welcome!" Liang Kangbo laughed, he was indeed hungry.
After Chen Xiuyu finished speaking, she carried the saddle and walked into the yard. After hanging the saddle on the wall of the stable, she saw Lu Lu also walking into the yard and hurriedly stepped forward to help him: "Why don't you talk to Brother Liang and the others?"
"There is a copper gall bladder in the hunting bag. I need to get rid of it quickly. I have been holding it for a long time. I need to boil water for soup. Besides, look at my pants. Do I need to change into a pair... You can see it.
The hair reaches the top of my thighs.”
For the last sentence, Lu Lu's voice was very low.
But it wasn't good. He was picked up by the cannon egg, and his teeth made a gap in his pants. When Liang Kangbo was helping to bandage it, he used an intrusion knife to expand it even wider, so that his pants could be seen.
When Chen Xiuyu came over to help him, Lu Lu simply put his arm across Chen Xiuyu's shoulders and arranged to walk into the house together. The fingers that were drooping on Chen Xiuyu's shoulders were pressed gently and dishonestly.
Chen Xiuyu's face turned red immediately, and she looked back guiltily at the two people shoveling the oil. When she saw that the two people were not looking at her, she elbowed Lu Lu with her elbow and glared at him fiercely, but she also
He did not immediately knock off Lu Lu's restless claws, but stretched out his hands to hold on tightly and helped Lu Lu toward the house.
After helping Lu Lu into the bedroom, she shook off Lu Lu's hand that was still being touched intentionally or unintentionally, and said angrily: "There's someone outside... He's injured like this, and he's still so unfair."
through!"
"What are you afraid of? They can't see it! Besides, it's only natural to be disrespectful to your own wife."
Lu Lu chuckled, sat on the edge of the kang, quickly took off the hunting bag from his body, untied the rope that tightened the bag, covered the blind bear's ribs, took out the bear's nose first, and then took out the copper bladder wrapped in cloth.
He took it out and opened it, and he immediately breathed a sigh of relief.
Carrying this bear bile on his back in the mountains, Lu Lu was thrown away by the fangs of the cannon egg, but it was not damaged.
He hurriedly handed the things to Chen Xiuyu: "Hurry and boil the bear bile and send it to the warehouse to dry in the shade. The corrugated cover and bear quilt are placed on the stove to dry."
Such a big copper bladder costs thousands.
"Okay!" Chen Xiuyu took these things with joy and walked to the kitchen.
When Chen Xiuyu left, Lu Lu breathed a long sigh of relief and sat down on the edge of the Kang.
When he was being dumped like crazy by a cannon egg today, Lu Lu thought that he was doomed.
He finally managed to survive. Even after resting for a long time, he still felt out of sorts. Now that he was back home, he had completely relaxed his energy and felt a strong sense of exhaustion all over his body.
He knew that he was still frightened.
After thinking for a while, he pulled out the hunting knife from his waist, took out the tiger gall that was carefully kept in a box in the kangqin drawer, cut off a small piece and stuffed it into his mouth, and after swallowing it dry twice in a row, then
The bitter and fishy taste spread throughout his mouth, and he limped quickly to the kitchen.
I took the gourd and opened the lid of the big earthen jar to scoop out water. I found there was no water inside and went straight to the corner of the well.
"What are you doing in such a hurry? You want to drink water? Do you want hot water in the thermos?"
Looking at Lu Lu's wrinkled face, Chen Xiuyu, who had already ironed the bear bile and was playing with the corrugated cap and the bear's nose, was a little confused.
"I just ate some tiger gall. It's too bitter and fishy. I can't drink the hot water at once... help me quickly!" Lu Lu urged.
Chen Xiuyu hurried forward, picked up the kettle, poured the cold water in it into the well, then grabbed the handle of the well with both hands and pressed it up and down hard. After a few strokes, a stream of extremely cool well water spurted out from the pipe.
come out.
Lu Lu hurriedly came over and took a few sips, finally feeling much better.
Killing a well is a very common tool for collecting water in the rural areas of Northeast China. Many families will have a kill well in the kitchen to facilitate water collection, and some people also build it outside.
But in Xiaoxinanling, the temperature is too low in winter, and the wellhead is often frozen and cannot be used, so it is built in the kitchen to prevent it from freezing and is convenient to use.
The thing was quite simple. Using a borrowed drill pipe, several grown men took turns lifting the drill pipe and digging it into the ground. It took less than half a day to drill out the well and install the kill machine. It was completed.
This is done when the foundation is being built.
There is a small river flowing in front of the wood carving, but in winter, it is completely covered with ice, so a well that will not freeze in the kitchen becomes very necessary.
The key is that the water coming out of the well is quite cold even in summer.
The water from the pressure well in Lu Lu's house is of good quality and very sweet.
When building the house, Wang Dalong specially installed drainage pipes for the purpose of killing the well. Even if there was a specially elevated foundation and cement painting in the wood carvings, it would not have any impact on washing vegetables and cooking.
Finally the pain in his mouth was relieved, and Lu Lu finally felt a little better.
"Hurry up and have a rest. I'll press the water and start steaming the rice. I'll boil some water for you, wipe your body, and change clothes!" Chen Xiuyu said and pushed Lu Lu out of the kitchen.
Lu Lu could only go back to the bedroom and wait.
Thinking of filling a basin with water every time he took a bath, twisting a towel and wiping it over and over again, Lu Lu thought about when to get some cedar wood and make a big bathtub for convenient bathing.
There is a special bathroom in the wooden block, so you have to use it quickly.
In his previous life, he was used to using bathroom heaters. Now that these things are gone, Lu Lu is somewhat uncomfortable.
The weather in the Northeast is really too cold in winter. In these days, it is normal to take a bath once every month. Even in later generations, it is very good for rural people to take a bath once a week, and they usually choose to go to the bathhouse in the town.
It is not easy to wash your clothes once, or even twice or three times a day like in the south due to the limited temperature conditions.
It is definitely a very pleasant thing to have a big bathtub filled with hot water and be able to take a comfortable bath in the winter.
Hmm...this matter needs to be done quickly.
Cedar wood is tight, anti-corrosion and water-resistant. It has its own fragrance and can not rot in water for ten years without treatment. It is a good material for making bathtubs. I have the impression that it is available in Daqing, and I don’t know about Xiaoxinganling.
Is there any... in it?
Get a bathtub and soak your body in chest-high hot water. It is definitely the ultimate enjoyment in winter. If necessary, add some Chinese medicine to take a medicated bath. If you invite Xiuyu to join you...
The more Lu Lu thought about it, the more he felt happy.
I don't know whether it was because of eating tiger gall or because of random thoughts in my mind that my spirits were lifted.
Not long after, Chen Xiuyu brought water and asked Lu Lu to take off his clothes and scrub himself. However, as soon as the clothes came out, Chen Xiuyu looked at Lu Lu and then at the injury on his leg, and her face suddenly turned red.
She glanced at Lu Lu and whispered: "You are so injured...what are you thinking about?"
"I just ate tiger gall!" Lu Lu made an excuse at random.
"Does tiger gall still have this effect?"
Chen Xiuyu's face was full of doubts. As she spoke, she rubbed a towel in the basin and helped Lu Lu clean it, but her eyes peeked from time to time, and she didn't know what she was thinking.
