Xu Shiyan, Han Wenzhong, and Han Limin stayed on the mountain for seven or eight days and accumulated a lot of prey.
Getting up early on the 11th, Han Limin went down the mountain first, went back to the site, found a driver, and drove up.
They dragged Han Wenzhong, Xu Shiyan, nine dogs and a lot of meat down the mountain.
Fortunately, the Han family lives in a remote place, at the easternmost end of Shenchang.
When the car stopped in front of Han's house and the meat was being unloaded, only a few family members saw it.
Someone came over to help, Han Wenzhong didn't refuse, and everyone moved down together.
The three of them have been hunting a lot these days. They hunt during the day and go back in the afternoon to skin and bones and freeze the meat outside.
Now they were all piled up in the Han family's yard, and all kinds of meat were piled up into a small mountain.
"Otherwise, old Uncle Han must be really good. Look, how much meat is this?"
The helper looked at the meat in the yard with envy.
Han Wenzhong was a generous man, so he asked Han Limin to share some meat with the helpers. Everyone happily thanked Han Wenzhong and left.
After sending away the outsiders, it was now the turn of the two families to divide.
Han Wenzhong knew that the Xu family had a large population, so he divided the meat equally between the two sides.
The other bear bile, musk, etc. were waiting to dry out in a few days. Xu Shiyan and Han Limin went to Tonghua to sell them and then divide the money.
Han Limin found the sledge at home and helped Xu Shiyan put all kinds of meat into sacks and put them on the sledge.
Then Xu Shiyan dragged the sledge and led the four dogs back to his home.
As soon as Xu Shiyan dragged his sledge into his yard, the door opened.
"Third brother, you are finally back. If you don't come back, our mother will send people to the mountains to find you."
The one who came out was Xu Shixiang, the fifth child. He was on winter vacation from school and was going home to celebrate the New Year.
Fortunately, Xu Chenghou asked his daughter to write a letter and send it to Tonghua, telling Xu Shixiang about the move.
Otherwise, when Xu Shixiang returns to the big house, he will probably be confused. After studying for the first half of the year, why is his home gone?
"Lao Wu is back? Just in time, help me move all these to the warehouse. We will have something to eat during the Chinese New Year this year."
When Xu Shiyan saw his fifth brother coming back, he was very happy. He didn't bother to exchange greetings at the moment and tied up the dog first and moved all the things down.
The two brothers carried the sack together and took it to the warehouse.
Xu Shiyan found a wooden barrel, filled it with some snow, then layered the meat with snow, and buried the meat in the snow.
The meat jelly has been sprinkled with water before, and there is a layer of ice shell on the outside, which can keep the meat fresh to the greatest extent.
If not, even if it is buried in the snow, the meat will easily dry out and become unpalatable.
"Brother, who did you go up the mountain with? Isn't that awesome? You got so much meat back after seven or eight days of going out?"
Xu Shixiang and his brother moved two or three times, and the sacks were filled with meat. He was very happy and curious, which capable person did the third brother find?
"There was an old man who attended the scene, his marksmanship was like a god, and he was very skilled.
He can hunt both large and small groups, and he can also call musk deer, deer, and roe deer.
Three people, three guns and nine dogs, do you think we can pull less?" Xu Shiyan laughed when he heard this.
Last year, he led a group of people who didn't know anything by himself, and he was able to hunt a lot of prey in the mountains.
Not to mention that this year I followed Mr. Han to the Changbai Mountain Reserve, so it was normal to do this.
The two put all the meat away. Xu Shiyan carried a gun in his pocket and entered the house with Lao Wu.
As soon as I entered the door, I felt that the kitchen was steaming with heat. When I looked carefully, it turned out that Su Anying was standing in front of the pot, holding a spatula to turn over the fire-sticking spoon in the pot.
"Hey, this is a sticky fire spoon. How much rice did you pack?"
There is a wooden trough next to the pot table, half of which has been filled. Looking at the posture, why do you think there are still a lot of things that have not been packed out?
Mom won’t pack as many sticky spoons at once as she did before, right?
"Yesterday, I made a whole day of wrapping. My mother soaked half a tank of rice and added some red bean paste. How much do you think we should wrap?"
Su Anying was very happy to see that her husband had returned safely. She used a shovel to turn over the fire-sticking spoon in the pot and said with a smile.
"Our mother said that you like to eat fire-sticking spoons, and besides, isn't Lao Wu coming back too?
Pack more. If you have time, you can send some to Director Guo. Don't worry about the bad ones. This is our intention.
There is also my little sister’s master, who is very kind to her, so we have nothing else to offer and give her some food.”
When Xu Shiyan heard this, he realized that this made sense.
You can't live at home with the door closed and no one coming around. Human contact is essential.
There is nothing else in the farm. It is better to give away some home-produced things than nothing at all.
"Well, okay, I just happened to come back with a lot of meat and other things this time. I'll ask Lao Liu to bring some to her master another day."
"Daughter-in-law, you should be busy first. I'll go into the house and have a word with my parents. I'll take a look at the pot later."
After going out for these days, you must first say hello to your parents when you come home. This is the rule.
Xu Shiyan opened the door to the east room and saw Zhou Guilan sitting cross-legged on the kang.
There is a large basin on the left with sticky noodles in it, and a medium-sized basin on the right with adzuki bean filling.
Next to him, Xu Haiyuan grabbed a piece of sticky noodles in his hand, his face was also white, and he was still doing it.
Behind Xu Haiyuan, Xu Chenghou's cotton-padded jacket, face, and trousers were all covered with white sticky face, but he had a doting and helpless expression on his face, watching his grandson make trouble.
"Oh my god, Xu Haiyuan, what are you going to do? Make trouble, right?"
Xu Shiyan holds his forehead, there are naughty children at home, can he still pack a fire spoon safely?
Xu Haiyuan was struggling with the sticky dough in his hand, which he couldn't get rid of.
As soon as he heard his father's movement, the little guy was so happy that he stretched out his hand toward Xu Shiyan and shouted the syllables "88".
This little guy can already say many syllables, such as mom, dad, grandpa, grandma. He doesn't speak clearly, but he calls people consciously.
"Don't be too lazy. You did it yourself and figured it out yourself. I'm too lazy to care about you."
When Xu Shiyan saw his son's appearance, he deliberately pretended to be full of disgust and stayed away from his son.
The little guy probably understood his father's face, so he was stunned for a moment, then curled his lips and started crying.
As soon as Xu Haiyuan cried, Xu Chenghou lost his composure and raised his head to glare at his son.
"You can hug me if I ask you to, why are you talking so much nonsense? You have to make us cry."
As Xu Chenghou said this, he picked up his grandson and put him on his lap to comfort him, and then he picked the sticky noodles off his grandson's hands little by little.
He ignored him just now, mainly because he picked out this piece. After a while, Xu Haiyuan went to the basin and pulled it.
If his hands got sticky, he would have to work hard to get them off, so that he wouldn't cause too much trouble to Gui Mianzi.
"Dad, he is my son. Why don't I, as a father, take care of my children?
That's food, how can he be allowed to cause harm?" Xu Shiyan suddenly had a black line in his head.
This is the disadvantage of living with the elderly, as you can't take care of your children.
Regardless of whether the child is right or wrong, as long as he says something, the old man will stop him, let alone hit him. How dare he move a finger?
Xu Shiyan was helpless. In his previous life, his youngest son was like this. With his grandparents as his backers, he was not afraid of anything.
In this life, he doesn't want his eldest son to become that virtuous.
