Nongmen Jiao Nv: Escape from the famine with space

Chapter 218 The Last Supper (22)

But even though the situation was already so severe, someone still cared about the 15 horses left by the thieves in the village.

The villagers found the village head and wanted to use the carriage to carry their luggage, but the village head disagreed, "This horse belongs to someone else. Although I don't know much about it, I also heard that horses have to be trained before they can be ridden. No one in the crowd knows how to ride a horse, and no one knows how to train a horse. What if we lose our luggage and get hurt? It’s too dangerous. Besides, this horse doesn’t look like a villager If a person can have it, if the thief's accomplice sees it, he will know that we are suspected at a glance."

"Yeah, do you think our journey is too smooth, do you want to have some fun for us?"

That person really didn't mean that, that is, there are too many things in the house, but too few people have donkey carts and ox carts. Besides, they have to carry their own luggage. Others pulled it, so he thought of a crooked trick.

"Then can we take the horses and sell them as we go, and we can also exchange some silver in our hands, so that we can use it for the villagers."

"Isn't your suggestion even more stupid? Let's sell it as we go. Isn't this telling the thieves about our whereabouts? If you don't know what to say, don't mention it. Village chief, I suggest killing the horse. We all in the village today Eat a full meal at night, and if there is more meat, distribute the leftover meat to each household, no matter who stays or leaves, there will always be more food in hand.”

The person who put forward this opinion was the eldest son of Aunt Yang’s family, and Aunt Yang’s family is the one between Wang’s and Wen’s, but this opinion is good, “The thief is still in the next county, we just eat meat and should It's okay, I don't want to stay this night, eat a little more, and we can go on the road tomorrow."

After saying this, I felt a little unlucky, and I didn't know which way to go when I was full.

But the village chief didn't object to this proposal, "Okay, kill and eat. The journey is hard. Let's eat some meat tonic in advance. Since the whole village eats together, let's find someone to make a big pot of rice."

The villagers said: "Then the cooking skills of the Wen family are not very good? We kill horses and let them cook, at most, we can give them some more meat. I don't know when I will be able to eat meat in the future. I just want to eat a good meal." , have a delicious meal."

"Let me ask, you go and kill the horse first, and don't make too much noise."

A few people went to slaughter the horse excitedly, but when the Wen family heard what the village chief said, almost everyone froze in place and felt a little overwhelmed.

Just fleeing from disaster, fleeing from famine, is this the rhythm of celebrating before leaving?Will it be too high-profile, but it is not impossible to cook a meal, and said warmly: "It happens that I am worried that our seasoning can't be taken away, so let's use it tonight."

"Well, the village chief will go first. We'll be here in a while with the seasonings. If the horse has been slaughtered, let's light the fire now."

"Okay, thank you very much, this journey is hard, and you can't take the horse with you, so it's better to eat." The village chief wanted to explain, but the Wen family didn't need it, "Village chief, we understand, and we will have a good time at night." For food, ask some aunts to help us, if there are seasonings, anyone can make it delicious."

"Row."

After finishing talking, the village chief turned around and left. Wen Yu and Wen Xin also went to the cellar and took out a lot of seasonings under cover. "There are 15 horses outside that must be eaten. After all, we are so many people. Almost enough."

Wen Yu put them together and asked, "Xin'er, are these seasonings expensive? I used so many before, and I didn't ask you."

Wen Xin thought for a while and said, "A hair rope can buy several boxes of these seasonings."

The salt of this era is different from the salt of later generations. Wen Xin dare not use the fine salt directly, so all the salt water that has been melted with hot water is used, and other things like vinegar, soy sauce, and oil consumption Yes, the other additions are shallots and ginger.

Vinegar, soy sauce, and oil are also slightly more expensive than oil. A hair rope costs a thousand dollars in modern times. Wouldn’t it be possible to buy a lot of these three seasonings for [-] dollars?
After taking the seasonings, Wen's family went to the barbecue area. Because of the crowd, the villagers could not move quickly. When they came, five horses had already been packed, and three piles of fire had already been lit.

Seeing that the Wen family brought a lot of seasonings, everyone couldn't help saying: "It seems that we can have a good meal tonight."

"Isn't it? I've heard that the Wen family's culinary skills are good for a long time. Now I can really taste it."

After talking, the pot started to burn, first fried pork slices, and then fried shredded pork. Because there was an open fire, Wenxin made a bamboo stick barbecue. The dishes for this evening were all pure meat.

If there is no seasoning, the Wen family's craftsmanship is just the same, so Wen Xin distributes the seasoning, and almost all the dishes made by the aunt are not bad, but the best is the bamboo skewer barbecue, which tastes like the roast lamb of later generations The skewers are similar, but it’s a pity that there is no cumin and chili powder, which is a bit lacking in taste, but for the warmth of eating horse meat for the first time, the meat is very firm and chewy. On the contrary, she thinks the original taste is also delicious of.

Everyone enjoyed this meal. They thought that there would be some leftovers from the 15 horses, but all of them were wiped out in one meal, even the internal organs. The villagers thought about it for a long time.

After eating, everyone burned the mess in place, trying not to leave a trace, and then went home.

As for sleeping, I'm afraid no one will be able to sleep this night, even Wen Xin is no exception.

She looked at the broken walls and leaky windows around the house, which were obviously the places she wanted to escape from before, but now she felt a little bit reluctant.

Seeing her reluctance, Wen Yu smiled and said, "Didn't you want to leave before? Now I can't bear it."

"Yeah, I've lived here for so long, so I have feelings."

The same goes for Wen Yu, "This house was built where my parents got married. It's been so many years. If I say I can't bear it, it's probably even more so for my older brothers and sisters who have lived there longer."

She doesn't know what to say if she is gentle and reluctant, but she can say that she is gentle and reluctant, Wenxin sneered at the moment, the four lines are facing each other, without any words but they understand each other's meaning.

"You."

"Second brother, do you think we will come back in the future?"

Wen Yu thought about this question seriously, and to be honest, it's really hard to say, "I'm sure I won't be able to come back in the short term, but if I come back after a long time, I think this village won't be the same as it used to be, okay, go to sleep, I have to get up early tomorrow."

"Well, the second brother is also right, go to bed early, and you must worry about the second brother along the way."
