Return to 1983 Hunting Xing'an Mountains

Chapter 15 Can a dog really change to eating shit?
  In the outhouse, Yang Shuhua opened the lid of the pot, and the aroma of meat suddenly filled the room.

Wu Qiuxia put the plate on the pot, and Han Fengjiao and the two began to serve.

Liu Lizhen, who was making cold dishes in the east wing, also walked into the east room carrying a rice bowl and cold cabbage hearts.

She gave Xu Long a wink, and he immediately understood, stood up, and started setting the table to eat.

There was definitely not room for such people to sit at one table, so two tables were placed, one on the floor and one on the kang table.

The floor table is used by gentlemen who drink, while the kang table is used by women and children. The two tables can accommodate sixteen people.

The children were diligent in taking bowls and chopsticks, and Xu Feng even flattered her and dug out the Daqu wine her sister-in-law bought for Xu Chunlin.

Everyone was busy bringing food to the table, serving rice and grabbing wine glasses.

Since the table on the floor was short of two stools, Wang Hu climbed over the wall and went home to get two. When he came back, six dishes were already on the table!
  Braised pork elbow, braised pork trotters with soy sauce, sweet and sour pork ribs, braised big bones with sauerkraut, deboned meat dipped in minced garlic, and cold cabbage hearts.

Looking at the dishes on the table, they were all delicious and delicious, making everyone swallow their saliva in unison.

This kind of banquet can only be eaten during the Chinese New Year, even if it is left at the old Xu family!

On weekdays, the meat is stored, then stewed with cabbage, sauerkraut, and fried meat to satisfy the craving.

Xu Ning bent down to smell it, then stood up and said, "My sister-in-law must be the one to cook the food. Look at the presentation, it's better than the restaurants in the street!"

Liu Lizhen said with a smile: "That's not good. Look at the elbow (shǎi), it's red."

Yang Shuhua smiled shyly when she was praised, "Auntie, don't praise me. Just now I was thinking of adding some salt so that I didn't put the candy in it!"

"What the hell, your aunt almost didn't put the rat poison in the pot." Xu Chunlin answered.

Liu Lizhen rolled her eyes and said, "You have to remember this nonsense for the rest of your life, it's annoying!"

The crowd burst into laughter.

After the six dishes were served, the children rushed to the Kang, while Liu Lizhen and others gathered around the floor, leaning against the Kang table, holding bowls and eating.

Xu Chunlin, who was on the ground, cut open the three bags of Daqu wine and poured them into tea jars to share the wine.

This wine was bought by his daughter-in-law Wang Shujuan. It's not cheap, so I usually don't want to drink it.

Isn't this just a happy day? There are so many people and a table of delicious food, so I have to drink some good wine to cheer up!
  "Qiangzi, come here, I'll pour some for you."

Li Fuqiang came to the house for the first time, so as the host Xu Chunlin had to take care of him.

He hurriedly picked up the wine glass with both hands, and when he was about to pass it over to receive the drink, he caught a glimpse of Yang Shuhua staring at him with a black face.

He almost trembled with fright, but fortunately his brother Xu Ning was by his side, grabbing his arm and taking the wine glass.

Xu Ning patted him on the shoulder and said with a smile: "Brother, please eat more food tonight."

When Xu Chunlin heard this, he rolled his eyes in dissatisfaction, "What's going on? It's the first time that eldest brother comes to your house for dinner, why don't you let someone bring you a glass of wine?"

Wang Erli also advised: "Er Ning, it will be okay if your eldest brother drinks less."

Xu Ning put down the glass and said: "Last night, my eldest brother told me that his liver has not been feeling well recently and that food no longer tastes good. Then we both swore to God that we would never drink again from now on. Isn't that right? Have you quit drinking? Dad, second uncle, you can’t stop us from stepping back from the brink!"

After saying this, everyone in the room became quiet and turned to look at Li Fuqiang and Xu Ning.

These two people are quite famous in the countryside, Xu Erning, a prodigal son from Qing'an, and Li Fuqiang, a drunkard.

how? Does this mean you have stopped drinking?
  Yang Shuhua was obviously stunned and looked at Li Fuqiang suspiciously, thinking in her mind: Can this dog really change its habit of eating shit?

However, her face did look much better than before. Ever since she entered Lao Xu's house, she was afraid that Li Fuqiang would go crazy after drinking.

Don't let this hard-earned friendship get cracked just because he tried to drink.

At this moment, Li Fuqiang also looked confused, and he looked at his brother intently.

I wonder when I will tell him that his liver is not good and his food no longer tastes good?
  When did you swear to God that you would stop drinking?
  Xu Chunlin and others had doubts on their faces. He tilted his head and asked, "Qiangzi, your brother said that you two should quit drinking?"

Li Fuqiang turned to look at his brother and saw Xu Ning smiling and nodding.

He gritted his teeth and said fiercely: "Yeah! I felt uncomfortable after drinking with Er Ning last night. Er Ning also almost got into trouble because of drinking, so I thought about quitting drinking!"

Li Fuqiang felt very unhappy, but in order to save his brother's face, he had to tell the lie.

Because he and Xu Ning get along as brothers, and there are so many elders and children in the room in front of each other, it is impossible for him to make a fool of his brother, let alone to leave the table because his brother does not let him drink.

So he weighed both sides, gritted his teeth and nodded his head to admit it.

Seeing that he agreed, Xu Ning raised three fingers to the lamp and said, "Then you can bear witness to us. If we drink shamelessly in the future, it will be bad..."

Before she finished speaking, Liu Lizhen ran to the ground and made a huge swipe at the back of Xu Ning's neck.

"Hey, you were born to me, why should you have asked me if you have?! You make jokes about your life every day, how many lives do you have? If you say such things again, I will give you both a slap in the face!"

A big-necked person is a slap on the back of the neck, and an ear-thundering person is a slap in the face. Xu Ning winced after being beaten and said with a smile: "Mom, why don't you believe me? This time it's true!"

"It's not like you're joking with your life!"

"Yeah, brother, why don't you tell me?"

Li Fuqiang looked around, and when he saw Yang Shuhua staring at him expectantly, his heart became cruel.

"Then let my uncle break both of our legs!"

Don't look at Li Fuqiang, who is usually not very reliable, so who will score?

In the past, when he went up the mountain by himself, in order to avoid encountering danger as much as possible, he always walked around large beasts.

In other people's words, he becomes timid.

But he does it for his family. No matter how bad it is for him to leave the family behind, he is still a man.

In rural areas, those who have a gentleman in their home and those who do not have two different personalities!

Besides, Li Fuqiang is a very face-conscious person. Otherwise, when the villagers who drank with him revealed that he was annoying people, why didn't he go to the pole to find someone to drink with? Instead, he stayed at home to drink.

Since it is said out loud, it is just water thrown out!
  Although Li Fuqiang didn't know why Xu Ning wanted to stop him from drinking, it was useless to say more.

"Okay, let my dad break our legs! Dad, can you do it?"

Xu Chunlin narrowed his eyes when he heard the sound, remembering how Xu Ning almost froze to death last night, and sneered: "I'll kill him!"

Xu Long said, "It's okay, my dad can't hold you down, so I'll hold you down for you! Why don't you use a sledgehammer to hit the pig? My dad will hit you with a sledgehammer."

Xu Chunlin looked at Li Fuqiang and said with a smile: "If I find you drinking, I will really break your legs. Don't blame me then."

Li Fuqiang grinned and said: "You are my uncle, so what else can you say? Besides, I won't give you a chance to break my legs!"

By this point, everyone in the room was laughing.

Yang Shuhua laughed the most happily. She had been married to Li Fuqiang for so many years, but she had never heard that he wanted to quit drinking.

However, she was really surprised when she said she wanted to quit drinking in front of so many people today.

She also knew in her heart that since Li Fuqiang agreed in front of these old people, he must quit!
  Xu Ning turned to her and said, "Sister-in-law, if you see my elder brother drinking in the future, just tell my dad!"

"Yeah." Yang Shuhua nodded with a smile on her face.

After Xu Chunlin poured wine for others, he said to Li Fuqiang: "Qiangzi, since you have stopped drinking, let's eat more food."

"Yeah, uncle, I treat this as my own home."

Yang Shuhua couldn't hold it back: "You're welcome."

"Hey, isn't this my home? Shuhua, you worked hard today, please eat more."

"Yes, auntie, I treat it as my own home."

Immediately the whole room burst into laughter.

Xu Ning whispered to Li Fuqiang: "Listen, my sister-in-law and you can make a joke."

Li Fuqiang blinked when he heard this, and he understood what was going on.

"Are we really going to quit drinking?"

"Then what are you thinking about?"

"Okay, just quit. I just feel like I can't eat these days."

Xu Ning said with a smile: "Can't you eat this table of delicious food? Try the whole ribs."

Li Fuqiang chewed the ribs in his mouth and tasted them, "My wife must cook it well."

Yang Shuhua lay on the kang and listened, turning her head and giving him a shy glance, which made Li Fuqiang feel happy.

When Jin Yu and Man Tang saw their parents winking like this in public, they were a little confused for a moment, with disbelief on their faces.

You know, their parents haven't spoken to each other for nearly two months.

Yang Shuhua also saw the two stunned children, but she lowered her head and said nothing.
