Xu Shiyan took a knife, cut off a few strips of flesh from Heixiazi's body, threaded them through green straw branches as thick as his fingers, and sprinkled a little salt on them.
When the fire burned to its peak, the smoke gradually subsided, and transparent flames danced on the red charcoal, Xu Shiyan brought the branches close to the fire and slowly roasted them.
The meat of Heixiazizi is already plump, and when it is roasted on the fire, the oil will come out.
Small bubbles appear on the surface of the meat, and they also emit an attractive aroma.
Xu Shi'an at the other end also put the pancakes he had brought out onto green straw sticks and flipped them back and forth to bake them.
When the meat was roasted, the pancakes were browned and soft. The two brothers exchanged hands and just nibbled on the pancakes and ate the meat. It was very beautiful.
"I still live a happy life in the mountains. I have meat to eat. They say you are an honest boy. I saw you and you are the most evil."
Xu Shian sighed while eating.
I used to think that my younger brother was a naive thief, but now I realize that he is the most scheming in the whole family.
After we separated the family, we took our daughter-in-law out, and now we have moved to the mountains to see ginseng.
The team provided food and drink and counted work points, and the couple ate meat on the mountain. It was a very comfortable life.
"What's wrong? Second brother is envious?" Xu Shiyan asked with a smile while chewing the meat.
"Go back to the village and ask, who doesn't envy you?
Who would have thought before that ginseng grown in the mountains could be so good? Lao Li Tou wasn’t like that at that time.”
Xu Shian glared at his brother, feeling that this guy was showing off.
What Xu Shi'an said is true. When Lao Li was in the mountains, he didn't see anything good to eat and the accommodation wasn't decent.
My clothes are worn out day by day, not to mention like begging for food. It’s really sad to see.
Everyone thought that this was the only way to see ginseng in the mountains, and they didn't look down on any of them.
But who would have thought that after Xu Shiyan and his wife went up the mountain, their whole appearance would change?
Su Anying had tidied up the small house, making it look brand new inside and out. It was bright and shiny, and everyone felt comfortable after looking at it.
Looking at Xu Shiyan's methods, he guarded the venue like an iron barrel and provided all kinds of delicious food. No one could make this life easier for the couple.
"But having said that, you have to be careful, many people in our village are jealous.
Now Uncle Zhao is resolute and will try his best to protect you, so that you can live your good life safely in the mountains."
Xu Shian is stubborn and violent, but that doesn't mean he is stupid.
Xu Shian is very clear about the little gossips that people in the village do behind their backs, so he must remind Xu Shiyan at this moment.
"Second brother, don't worry. I didn't originally expect to see ginseng on the mountain all the time. It's just a temporary measure.
Uncle Zhao is looking for me, so I can't refuse. If there are people who are greedy, just ask them to come, I don't care."
This is really not a boast, Xu Shiyan has no intention of staying in the Dongjiangyan Brigade from the bottom of his heart.
Poor mountains and rivers breed unruly people. The smaller the place, the more bad people there are.
The main reason is that there are only a few families, and everyone's eyes are wide open. Anyone who takes the lead will be targeted, and it will definitely be bad.
"Tch, that's easy to say. You two are now sitting on the mountain watching ginseng. You have work points, food to eat, and you can also hunt and earn money. What a good job, are you willing to do it?"
Xu Shian curled his lips and rolled his eyes, thinking that his younger brother had some skills, so he started bragging.
Xu Shiyan ignored his second brother. After eating, he patted his butt and stood up, going to the forest to chop wood.
As usual, a sledge was tied up, and then the two brothers dragged the disemboweled black blind man onto the sledge.
The medicinal powder had analgesic properties. The two injured dogs took the medicine and after resting for a while, they dared to move and followed slowly.
I walked for three or four hours when I came here, mainly because I was following the trail of Heixiazi and took a detour through the hills.
You don’t need to go back, you are familiar with this area, just find the nearest road back after you get off the mountain.
Even so, after all, they were dragging a big guy weighing more than 300 kilograms. By the time they returned to the venue, it was already past three in the afternoon.
"Now that you're back, I've been waiting in trepidation for you to come back all day."
As soon as there was movement outside the gate, Su Anying came out immediately. Seeing the two brothers returning safe and sound, Su Anying finally let go of her hanging heart.
"What are you afraid of? We two brothers have five dogs and two guns. How can we deal with a blind black man?"
Xu Shiyan laughed when he heard this and took out a white cloth bag from his arms.
"Daughter-in-law, go boil some hot water, dip the black blind man's gall in it, and hang it up."
This gallbladder is a grass gallbladder, not as valuable as the copper gallbladder Xu Shiyan made before, but it can still be sold for three to four hundred.
The two brothers earned three to four hundred a day, and still had so much meat left behind, which was pretty good.
Su Anying took the Heixiazizi's gall and went back to the house to boil water. Here, the two brothers dragged the Heixiazizi in and skinned and deboned him in the yard.
"Second brother, I'll leave the bear bile here for now and wait for it to be dried. You can take it to the county and sell it, and you'll get half the money for each person."
"I see that people from the team are coming to work again today. You can take the carriage back later and take some of this meat back with you.
Remember, give a thigh to Uncle Zhao, and ask our mother to keep the bear paw for the banquet when the fourth child gets married."
There are carriages from the team over there, they must be working again.
You know, I haven't picked up enough pillars yet, so those who are not injured must come to work.
It just so happened that Xu Shian could go back by carriage, otherwise it would be really difficult for him to get the old meat back by himself.
The two brothers had just finished their work here, and before they could put away the meat, the workers over there had also returned from work.
When they saw the meat here and the black skin on the ground, everyone's eyes widened.
"Third brother, did we meet that black blind man yesterday? Did you kill him?" Yang Chunming saw it and was filled with envy.
"Well, I chased him early this morning and shot him to death three times.
I’ll bring some meat back with you guys later, so we can taste the freshness.”
The black blind man was discovered by everyone, and Xu Shiyan picked up the leak.
The black blind man is definitely not as brave as these people, but he will give some of his meat to others.
Anyway, there is no shortage of meat on the mountain. It’s not good to be too stingy. Share some and everyone will be happy.
These days, eating meat is almost in time for the Chinese New Year. Who wouldn’t want to eat meat after seeing it?
As soon as they heard that there was meat available, everyone suddenly smiled.
"Thank you, Third Brother. We have benefited a lot from Third Brother." Everyone cheered.
Everyone knew enough, and no one asked for more. One piece of meat weighed three kilograms per person, and that was enough.
Xu Shiyan found a sack and asked Xu Shian to take most of the remaining bear meat and yesterday's wild boar meat back.
So, everyone happily drove the carriage back to the village, talking and laughing all the way.
After that, the village became lively, those who got the meat were happy and those who didn't got it were envious and jealous.
Many parents give their sons a bad rap when they catch them, thinking that their sons have no future.
He is not as capable as Xu Shiyan, who can bring back so much meat for his family to eat and still make money.
Invisibly, Xu Shiyan was attracted by another wave of hatred, but he still didn't know anything about it on the mountain.
