Return to 1983: Starting from hunting in the mountains

Chapter 30 How can his family afford meat?

Liu Hongying's first reaction was that the village chief Liu Fugui could eat meat several times a month.
  It was not long after the New Year, and who else could afford to eat pork besides his family?

Thinking of this, Liu Hongying couldn't help but smacked her lips.

I couldn’t be more envious.

Although Lu Chengcai was the captain of the production team, he made some small profits from it, and his family was allocated a lot of land, but he could barely fill his stomach.

When it comes to eating meat, it’s still far away.

There is no comparison with village chief Liu Fugui.
  Liu Hongying remembered that when she passed by Liu Fugui's house before, she smelled the smell of pork and was so greedy that she swallowed her saliva.

Especially once while visiting, she saw Liu Fugui's wife, carrying a large bowl of lard rice with a little soy sauce. It was really delicious!

Liu Hongying comforted herself.

Life will get better and better in two years. Although her two eldest sons are both farmers,
  But for the youngest son, Lu Jianhai, his father paid for his connections and sent him to a county tailor shop to be an apprentice. After two years, his son would be good enough to learn. "

But the village chief’s house had just passed by, and the smell was obviously coming from the front!
  "Is it Lao Zhangtou? His daughter and son-in-law came to see him and bought some meat?"

Are they really Lu Jiansheng’s family?
  Is it possible that you are still eating meat? !

She couldn't believe it! The first reaction was that I was afraid that I would not listen.

wrong? !
  Have a meal?

It’s time to go to work!
  She was stunned.

"I must have seen a ghost in broad daylight and am dreaming!"

Her mind was racing, and suddenly her eyes fell behind Lao Zhangtou's house.

That's the home of Lu Jiansheng and Bai Ruoxi.

Lao Zhang was carrying a pole on his head and holding a straw rope in his hand. Hearing Liu Hongying's words, he turned his head and looked over, and said angrily: "Eating? What to eat? Do you think my family is the same as yours! We eat every meal." , there’s so much food there! I’ll go out and collect some firewood!”

Liu Hongying felt itchy and immediately stepped forward.
  But she came to the yard and crawled on the crack of the door and meowed!
  But unfortunately, she saw nothing but two little brats.

"Humph, what's the use of relying on a son-in-law?"

Liu Hongying couldn't help but think that because Lao Zhangtou was much poorer than her, his home was in front of Lu Jiansheng's house, and Lu Jiansheng's family was behind him! His family lives at the end of the village! But for this nephew, Liu Hongying never thought that his family would be able to eat meat.

Liu Hongying staggered.

Liu Hongying curled her lips and stepped on the snow. She had just taken two steps forward when she saw Lao Zhang carrying a banner on his head! Walk out from the front door of your own yard.

As soon as this idea came up, Liu Hongying shook her head and rejected it.

"Tangtang Xixi, it's time to eat! Come on!"

……

"When the time comes, let alone pork, it will be all kinds of meat, and she will be able to eat it!"

Look.

Subconsciously, he raised his voice and said, "Brother Zhang, aren't you still cooking at home? Why are you carrying a pole and not eating in such a cold weather?"

Crazy, isn’t it?
  That family of four was extremely poor.
  The children can hardly be fed, and Bai Ruoxi wanted to borrow food from herself before!
  How could I have eaten meat today?
  Liu Hongying felt that her idea was ridiculous, but she still felt a little guilty. In the end, there was no one else but his family!
  Liu Hongying walked towards the front
  The closer the distance, the stronger the smell of the meat.
  Liu Hongying wanted to come over to show off, but before she came to the courtyard gate, she heard Lu Jiansheng's smiling voice from inside the courtyard.

Liu Hongying snorted, stood up, and explained to herself.

But she felt as uncomfortable as a thorn in her heart.

She continued to meow again~

Just as Liu Hongying continued to crawl in front of the door,
  ~

In the main room, Lu Jiansheng had just brought the food in from the kitchen and was serving rice to two milk dumplings.

In the cold weather, Lu Jiansheng lit the fire in the main room early.

Bai Ruoxi was wiping the hands of two little guys. These two little guys were very thick-skinned. They had been building snowmen in the snow in the yard in such a cold weather. Looking at the white rice, stewed pork vermicelli and stir-fried pork with chili, it’s so fragrant!

The two little guys, Tangtang Xixi, had suffered too much in the past. Although they had improved a lot these days, they were so greedy when they saw pork stewed with vermicelli and fried pork with chili.

Lu Jiansheng was afraid that the two of them would suddenly eat so much that they would be full of food, so the next kid filled a small bowl.

Putting it in front of the two of them, the two little guys ran to the main room carrying the rice.

A worn wooden table with a stone underneath.

A bowl of fried meat with green pepper

A large porcelain enamel bowl is filled with pork stewed vermicelli, glistening oil and water, and fragrant rice.

Xixi, a foodie, is drooling.

"Dad, Xixi wants to eat."

"Tangtang wants to eat too, rice, it smells delicious~"

Lu Jiansheng held back his laughter and said, "Eat it quickly!"

He usually hunts in the mountains, goes out early and comes back late, and rarely cooks for them!
  Although there are a lot of prey that he hunts at home, Bai Ruoxi's skill in handling game is average, and Bai Ruoxi is too diligent and frugal in housekeeping. Some game must be heavy with oil and flavor, otherwise it will not taste good.

But Bai Ruoxi, who has lived through so many years of hard life, can't just change at the drop of a hat.
  Regarding the piece of meat she bought today, Bai Ruoxi couldn't help but say a few words to him just now. After all, he still had a lot of prey at home, and in Bai Ruoxi's opinion, these were all meat.

Pork is really delicious these days. After hearing Lu Jiansheng's words, the two little guys immediately picked up small wooden spoons, each took a mouthful of white rice and put it into their mouths. These two small wooden spoons were made by Lu Jiansheng with his own knife when he was hunting and resting in the mountains. ,

Fragrant rice mixed with pork stewed vermicelli

Pour on a little more broth!
  So delicious.

The eyes of the two little breast dumplings suddenly lit up!
  "Dad, it smells good! It smells good!"

Tangtang was so hot that she grinned and puffed out her cheeks.

"Xixi, I like to eat the food cooked by my father."

Xixi made a milky voice and smiled so hard that her teeth couldn't even see her eyes.

The smiles of the two children were the greatest comfort to Lu Jiansheng.

"Eat, you should eat more!"

Lu Jiansheng looked away and said to Bai Ruoxi with a smile.

Bai Ruoxi nodded.

He looked down at the bowl of rice with a lot of meat in front of him.

"Lu Jiansheng, why did you weigh so much meat for him again! I don't know how to save some."

"Daughter-in-law, you also need to eat a little fatter, otherwise it will feel uncomfortable to the touch."

Bai Ruoxi blushed, then quickly lowered her head, picked up the chopsticks, took a chopstick of meat and put it into her mouth.

Steaming hot rice. The rich aroma of white rice,

Delicious broth, stir-fried meat with green pepper.

So fragrant!
  "Mom, is it delicious?"

Xixi tilted her little head and showed a big smile to Bai Ruoxi.

Bai Ruoxi nodded quickly.

And Lu Jiansheng also ate hard. Pork stewed with vermicelli mixed with white rice, it was so delicious.

The next moment, he suddenly saw a small spoon coming tremblingly in front of him.
