Seventy cannon fodder is a ruthless man

Chapter 61
In the small courtyard of Meng Tao's house, it was full of laughter and liveliness.

All the educated youths were given meat, and the five male educated youths were given seven pounds of meat and a piece of meat and bones because of their participation in carrying wild boars.

For a dinner party in the evening, the three female educated youths did not have to produce wild boar meat. The one who shared the extra meat shared a meal. First, the five meat bones and the big bone shared by Meng Tao were stewed together. Cut out six or seven taels of wild boar each, without frying the oil, cut it directly into a big piece, wait until the pork bones are almost simmered, then put the pork in and simmer for a while, and then add the cut radishes and potatoes. Boiled together.

Meng Tao moved out of his small stove and put it in the middle of the hall. An iron pot of meat and bones was simmering on the stove. The whole house was filled with the aroma of meat. Nine people sat around the stove and washed a basket of cabbage and celery. Put it on the side and eat it hot, Meng Tao took out the homemade chili sauce and tomato sauce, and then chopped some chopped green onion and coriander to prepare the sauce plate. The conditions were limited and one person could not have one plate, so there was only one for three people. Pay attention, a group of people are sweating and eating, and they are very addicted.

By the end of the meal, not only a few catties of meat, radishes, potatoes, and a basket of vegetables were eaten up, but the bones were also eaten up, and even the soup was clean.

Qian Liang leaned against the door with his stomach in his hands and sighed: "This is the most luxurious, beautiful and comfortable meal I have eaten since I went to the countryside!"

"Me too!" The others responded.

Sun Yutang said, "Thanks to Peach Blossom for a full meal of meat, thank Peach Blossom!"

Meng Tao waved his hand: "It's the big guy's luck, it's God's reward for meat."

"Hahahaha!" Everyone was happy when they heard this.

Zhao Ming said with a smile: "God appreciates meat, it's a good point. Eat and drink, classmate Taohua, shouldn't you do your homework?"

Meng Tao is speechless, Mr. Zhao, you are very dedicated, but it is really unpleasant. What kind of homework are you doing at this time?
He said, "Mr. Zhao, everyone is nervous and tired today, so don't do your homework, okay? Can you cut down on your homework for a few days?"

Zhao Ming was actually teasing her, and he was really tired today: "I don't have to write it today, but I'll make it up tomorrow."

Meng Tao sighed: "I regret it now. Why should I follow you to learn culture? I want to go into the mountains to be in the company of wild boars, and wild boars don't need to learn culture."

Xu Guoliang was drinking the last sip of soup in the bowl, when he heard the words, he spit it out, everyone laughed, and He Huijuan patted Meng Tao's arm, knocking her chopsticks off: "Fool! If you want to be in the company of wild boars, you will It was boiled and eaten!"

"If I were a wild boar, how far would I go to eat me? No way!" Meng Tao said.

Everyone was having another burst of Coke. Meng Tao lowered her head to pick up the chopsticks, but someone helped her pick it up. It was Jiang Xiaodong. He smiled and took away the bowl in front of Meng Tao and said, "I wash the dishes."

Meng Tao hurriedly reached out to grab it back: "You're welcome, I'll wash the dishes myself!"

"You're welcome, Peach Blossom, it was Zhao Ming's turn to cook tonight, but you were busy cooking just now. Now it's my turn to wash the dishes."

He Huijuan put her bowl over: "I also cooked just now."

Jiang Xiaodong: "Okay, put them all on the table, and I'll clean up and wash together."

Not having to wash the dishes, Xu Guoliang and Qian Liang were the happiest: "****, you did a good job today, you must praise and encourage, come on!"

"Less poor, it's your turn tomorrow."

"Good talk good talk!"

While laughing, he heard the courtyard door being pushed open and someone came into the courtyard with a flashlight. Zhao Ming got up and walked to the door to see clearly, and said, "It's Aunt Yang, and Zhou Cuiling, come here so late, have you eaten yet?"

Aunt Yang smiled and said, "I only came here after eating. Teacher Zhao, have you eaten?"

"Just finished eating, please come in and sit."

"well."

Meng Tao also came out, Zhou Cuiling grabbed her arm as a greeting, and then went into the room to talk to He Huijuan and others, while Aunt Yang pulled Meng Tao and said, "Although the weather is cold now, the sun is still warm during the day. I'm afraid that the meat you've allocated will spoil. I'll come and take a look, and salt the meat to make bacon?"

"I was thinking, I'm tired today, I'll do it tomorrow." Meng Tao said.

"You are tired from going up the mountain in the past two days. Give me the meat, and I will cook it for you. Cut the other two kilograms and fry them in oil. The meat can be kept in oil for ten days and a half months, so you can eat the rest slowly. They all make bacon, what do you think?"

"Good or bad, but Aunt Yang, you have a lot of work to do. You can't be tired if you are tired."

"Why are you tired? There's no work these days, so grab a basket and put some meat on it, and I'll go back."

"In such a hurry, sit down and talk."

"I can't sit, the three troublemakers are at home, and they were fighting for a snail just now. I'm afraid they will demolish the house and have to go back and watch."

Meng Tao went to get a basket with wild boar. Several educated youths heard Zhou Cuiling say that her mother wanted to help Meng Tao make bacon, and her mother had a secret recipe. The bacon was fragrant and delicious. They all went to fetch their own wild boar, and asked Aunt Yang to make it together. Anyway, they helped people carry the wood these days, and the host's family made meals, so they couldn't eat their own wild boar for the time being.

Aunt Yang agreed with a smile.

Aunt Yang definitely couldn't pick it back with dozens of kilograms of meat. Jiang Xiaodong and Sun Yutang went to see Aunt Yang off. Zhou Cuiling didn't go home, she wanted to sleep with Meng Tao, and the two of them talked small talk.

The next morning, Yu Xiaomin and Zhou Cuimei stopped carrying the wood. Bao Shunfeng understood that the girls were frightened on the mountain yesterday, and asked Meng Tao to rest. Meng Tao asked Bao Shunfeng to give the opening certificate, saying that he would go to the local city during the slack. A few days ago, her uncle Chen, who was in Pingjiang City, asked her to visit a relative on her behalf.

Bao Shunfeng was skeptical, but still gave her a certificate. Maybe he was in a hurry to go up the mountain. This time, there was no time limit. Meng Tao secretly rejoiced that she could run farther and sell the thousand catties of oranges, navel oranges, pears, and peaches in the space. .

When the people carrying the wood and mowing the grass went up the mountain, Meng Tao came home, and Qian Xiaoyun was cleaning the yard. She accidentally twisted her foot when she was mowing the grass yesterday, and she also rested today.

The two discussed that after cleaning up the courtyard together, they would go to the river to wash clothes, sheets, and brush shoes. Qian Xiaoyun would also feed the chickens. The educated youth raised five chickens together, two hens and four chicks. Meng Tao felt that they The hens raised are very squeamish. The weather is hot and they can't lay eggs. They only have one every three or five days. The next egg is jumping up and down, clucking for a long time. , I want to eat fresh eggs, let's wait until the spring of next year.

After feeding the chickens, tie up the chicken coop. Meng Tao and Qian Xiaoyun carried a basket of dirty clothes to the river. During the dry season, the Linshui River can be deep or shallow. The river is clear and flowing slowly. But it is very fast. A civil bridge is built in a relatively narrow place on both sides of the river. It is a simple bridge that is made of wood and mixed with mixed soil. It can pass tractors and ox carts. Every summer, there is flooding, and it is basically soaked once. Wooden bridge, if the flood comes too fast, the bridge will be washed away, and then it will be repaired and built again. Now this wooden bridge has been built for several years, and it seems to be solid.

No one was washing clothes by the river today, so Meng Tao and Qian Xiaoyun each found a big stone and squatted on it to start washing.
