After playing around for a while, Sun Yanping turned around and saw his brother-in-law dividing the meat.
"Can't you roast one whole?"
Sun Yanping kind of likes big scenes. He thought about how he had seen his brother-in-law roasting a whole sheep on the fire before on the video. Why did he have to separate the venison when he came here? A whole deer.
Wouldn't it be more heroic to be tied to a fire and roasted?
Zhang Chi looked at his brother-in-law and didn't know how to answer for a moment. It wasn't that he couldn't bear to part with it, but that the deer weighed about two hundred kilograms. There was no problem roasting it on the fire. However, how could people like his own family do this?
Eat it away.
You can reheat it and continue eating it, that’s no problem. Guan Jian has nothing to do but eat the second crop of meat. Can’t he just cook it freshly?
"I can't eat it. Do you want to eat something grilled?" Zhang Chi asked.
Sun Yanping said: "The pieces are not impressive enough."
"..." Zhang Chi was a little speechless. He really didn't expect that his brother-in-law would have such a hobby, and he would be able to eat in style.
However, Zhang Chi did not go as his brother-in-law wished. If such a big deer were to be roasted, his family might not be able to eat even one leg of the deer before closing the stall. Cowboys like Cannon don’t have any particular preference for venison, so there is no guarantee that the roasted meat would be good.
Most of them end up in the bellies of a few cattle dogs.
"Can't it be baked completely?" Sun Yanping asked.
Zhang Chi replied: "I can't eat it. It's enough for our family to eat for four or five days. Who has nothing to do to eat venison every day? Just pick some good ones. If you want to see the whole roasted, roast it in two days."
All sheep."
"also"
Sun Yanping doesn't necessarily want to roast the whole thing. The main reason for saying this is to find something to talk about. Of course, he really likes big scenes.
Zhang Chi continued to open the venison.
Sun Yanping was really idle, so he opened his mouth and asked: "What kind of meat is this?"
"This is the tenderloin. Let's eat it for lunch today, stir-fry it with a little celery or something. Then you will know how delicious it is," Zhang Chi said to his brother-in-law while unloading the tenderloin.
"Is it better than Xiaopai?" Sun Yanping asked.
Zhang Chi nodded: "This can be said to be the best meat on the deer. It is delicate and tender, and it is best stir-fried. The short ribs are best for frying. I will unload the short ribs later and we will fry them at noon.
As for the short ribs and shank, I will marinate them later and then cook them. I won’t be able to eat them today. Let’s cook them and store them in the refrigerator overnight. I’ll just cut them into a plate tomorrow..."
Hearing what his brother-in-law said about how to prepare venison, Sun Yanping felt his mouth watering and he wished he could eat all kinds of cooked venison that his brother-in-law said.
"You just think about eating it all day long in the United States. How come there are so many ways to do it?"
He hadn't noticed it before, but today when Sun Yanping heard his brother-in-law Zhang Chi talking about a whole deer, he suddenly felt that his cooking skills as a three-legged cat were like wearing tofu - he couldn't even mention it!
"You will naturally get better after eating too much," Zhang Chi said with a smile.
"Eat it often?" Sun Yanping asked.
Zhang Chi said: "I don't eat it often. Who can do so much trouble, like washing and peeling it?"
"I don't think your method is like eating it infrequently," Sun Yanping said.
Zhang Chi was very happy after hearing this: "You can skin a cow or a deer like anything else, forget it, I won't tell you this anymore, come here and help me."
Hearing what his brother-in-law said, Sun Yanping walked over and the two brothers removed the deer bones, which had been removed except for the skeleton, from the sling.
"Deer bones for soup?"
Sun Yanping felt that this pair of deer bones could be used to stew soup. When the time came, it would be a good ingredient for making noodles, making soup, and so on.
"Feed the dog!"
Zhang Chi said directly.
When Sun Yanping heard this, he felt that his brother-in-law was too prodigal. If he didn't stew soup and feed the dogs with such a good frame, at least five or six kilograms of meat could be removed from it.
"You feed dogs with a frame like this?" Sun Yanping looked at Zhang Chi with a question on his face.
Zhang Chi replied: "Well, feed the dog."
"There is still so much meat," Sun Yanping said again.
Zhang Chi said: "I kept it specially. If there wasn't so much meat, what would the dogs eat?"
Sun Yanping first thought that this made sense, but then he thought again, that's wrong! This method of feeding dogs can only be afforded by a few families. Children born in Sun Yanping's small town think that it is normal to feed dogs with leftovers.
.
"Okay, don't worry about it. Anyway, I will let you have a good meal today," Zhang Chi said with a smile towards his brother-in-law.
All the things were taken care of. Zhang Chi first stretched out the deer skins to dry, and then took the meat back to the house. The remaining bones and the like would be transported to the cowshed and thrown away later.
Let the big ox and the two tigers chew it up.
The two brothers returned to the house and took the decomposed venison out of the car.
After taking everything down, Zhang Chi was about to go out. He turned around and saw his brother-in-law following him again, so he said with a bitter face: "Brother-in-law, please stop following me. I'm going to feed the dog now."
"I'll go take a look," Sun Yanping said with a smile.
He actually doesn't want to follow his brother-in-law, but what can he do if he doesn't follow his brother-in-law now? Go watch a group of women play mahjong? Then he might as well follow his brother-in-law.
Zhang Chi had no choice but to follow him, so he went to the bullpen again.
When they arrived at the cowshed, some of the bones were thrown to Da Niu and Erhu's puppies, and the other part was given to the cowboys to take to the new pasture.
After returning home and tidying up, Zhang Chi began to prepare meals.
Sun Yanping and his son Xiaoxiao got together to play games, but after playing for a while, the father and son had a conflict.
"One more, one more." Sun Yanping held his son tightly, insisting on playing another game with his son.
Xiaoxiao twisted his body and said: "I won't play anymore, you are too good."
At this time, Zhang Jiaren and Zhang Youpeng came back. As soon as they entered the door, they saw the father and son twisting together.
"coming"
"Dad, grandpa".
Sun Yanping immediately let go of Xiaoxiao, stood up and smiled at the two of them.
"Why don't you take a break? Flying is quite hard," Zhang Jiaren said with a smile.
Zhang Jiaren still likes his grandson-in-law. Others say that Sun Yanping has been around for decades and has not made any progress at all. However, Zhang Jiaren thinks that Sun Yanping is a very good kid. Why does he have to be an official or get promoted and get a salary increase?
"It's not hard. I followed Dawen and Xiaowu. We were talking and laughing along the way and we didn't even realize we were there yet," Sun Yanping explained with a smile.
Zhang Chi came out of the kitchen at this time and saw that his grandfather and father were back, so he asked: "Grandpa, where did you go to work today?"
Zhang Jiaren said with a smile: "I didn't go anywhere, I just went to follow Cannon and the others to take care of the calf."
Zhang Youpeng also said: "It's quite interesting."
Zhang Chi blinked and thought for a while, but couldn't think of anything interesting, so he retracted his head and continued to cook his own meal.
Zhang Jiaren started chatting with Sun Yanping, and Zhang Youpeng also interjected from time to time. Now it's good, Sun Yanping finally found someone to talk to.
After the meal was ready, Zhang Chi called his family to eat. Because of Sun Yanping's arrival, he drank some wine.
After dinner, Zhang Jiaren took Zhang Youpeng and Sun Yanping out together.
This time Zhang Chi was relieved and returned to his original appearance.
The rain was still falling, and it didn't seem to have weakened at all. At night, Zhang Chi realized that something was wrong. The two disappearing rivers in the pasture were revealed again.
This proves that it rains very hard, and there is already a lot of rain coming down from the mountains.
Fortunately, Zhang Chi does not need to worry, because the terrain of Amber Town is very high. If this area were to be flooded, even the houses in many places would have been flooded.
After sleeping all night, Zhang Chi found that the rain had stopped and the sun came out again when he woke up in the morning.
When it stopped raining, Sun Yanping, who had just arrived, followed Zhang Jiaren and Zhang Youpeng to work with the cowboys. Of course, what he called working was mainly a joke.
Zhang Chi naturally continued to teach his sister how to ride horses.
As far as skills are concerned, Zhang Chi actually has nothing to teach him. The only thing left is a matter of experience. Chang Qi is enough. But how could Zhang Juan let his brother go? Even if he was watching from the side, Zhang Chi would have to sit back and wait.
Teaching people to ride horses is boring, but watching people ride horses is even more boring.
Soon Zhang Chi changed from standing to sitting. Finally, he simply pulled up a chair and sat on the grass, watching his sister practice riding.
Just when Zhang Chi was bored, he suddenly saw a man and a horse running towards him. When the man and the horse got closer, he realized that the person riding on the horse was actually his brother-in-law.
Zhang Chi stood up and looked curiously at his brother-in-law from a distance.
Waiting for him to get close, he asked: "Can you ride a horse?"
When he asked this question, Zhang Chi felt a little regretful and thought to himself: Isn't this nonsense? How could he be on horseback if he didn't know how to ride a horse?
But thinking of a monkey, Zhang Chi couldn't help but feel happy, because his brother-in-law really looked like a monkey on horseback, with his back hunched over.
"Why can't I ride a horse?" Sun Yanping said with a smile, and then asked: "How about it, I can ride pretty well, right?"
"Well, not bad, not bad," Zhang Chi nodded.
Zhang Juan looked at it, looking very dissatisfied, and said to her husband: "What do you call the one you ride? It's so ugly, the body is hunched over, and it's not as good-looking as the one I ride in."
His wife's life was in vain, and Sun Yanping just giggled.
"Brother, please correct your brother-in-law's riding posture," Zhang Juan said.
As soon as he heard this, Zhang Chi immediately thought: You are enough for me to drink a pot, why are you here?!
So he quickly said: "My brother-in-law is also very good at riding, so there is no need to correct him. Once a habit is formed, it is difficult to change. It will be easier for a novice like you to correct it."
Sun Yanping didn't want his brother-in-law to correct him, so he opened his mouth and said: "It's okay, I'll just ride like this, as long as I can run."
Zhang Juan just said it casually and stopped talking when her husband refused.
Zhang Chi asked: "Brother-in-law, what are you doing here?"
Sun Yanping said: "Oh, I really have something to do. Dad asked me to ask you if you have any wooden strips at home. They are so long...".
As he spoke, he started gesticulating.
Zhang Chi thought for a moment: "Then you have to look for it. If you don't have it, you have to find it."
With that said, Zhang Chi took his brother-in-law to the tool room and took this opportunity to get away from his sister.
