Chapter 471

When Zhao Jun returned home, Wang Meilan and the others almost finished picking up the four jackals.

Two male jackals weighing about forty catties, after each skinned, there was no flesh and bones, not even thirty catties.

The jackal king was bigger, but he let the black tiger eat a lot of meat, and the rest, after skinning, was the same as the two male jackals, only 25 to [-] catties.

And the female jackal didn't even have [-] catties after it was grilled, and there was only a little meat on the breast, thigh, stomach, tenderloin, and neck.

The two male jackals were whole, so Wang Meilan gave them to Zhang Yuanmin and Jin Xiaomei respectively.

As for the jackal kings and female jackals who are short of stomach meat, they will keep them for their own family to eat.

At noon, Wang Meilan fried eggplant slices and potato slices, served with steamed buns with Lianghe noodles, and took a simple bite.

In the afternoon, Wang Meilan asked Zhao Jun to take an axe, chop up the jackal king's bones and meat into small pieces, and put them in a cauldron to blanch.

Put the pot in cold water, and when the water boils, a smell of mutton permeates the room.

It happened that Zhao Jun came back from the hut after going to the hut. As soon as he entered the room, he saw Wang Meilan standing in front of the pot with a fence in his hand, ready to scoop up meat.

"Brother Jun is back." Just in time, Jie Chen came out of the back room, walked to the pot, sniffed his nose and sniffed twice, and said, "This meat smells quite strong."

"That's not it." While speaking, Wang Meilan used a strainer to fish out the meat, poured it into a basin, and washed it twice with clean water.

After washing away the foam hanging from the meat, Wang Meilan picked out a piece of meat from the water basin, held it up to her nose and smelled it.

"Mom." Zhao Jun asked from the side: "Do I have to squeeze some peppers?"

Wang Meilan threw the meat into the basin and said to Zhao Jun, "Pick up more."

Hearing this, Zhao Jun went out of the house and took off the string of dried chili peppers hanging under the eaves, and pulled five dried chili peppers from above.

Mountain animals have a strong smell of mutton, and when cooking, they must be pressed with dried chili.

Zhao Jun's family eats a lot of game, so Wang Meilan dried a lot of dried red peppers.

When Zhao Jun entered the room with red peppers in his hands, Wang Meilan pulled out a cloth bag from the bottom of the dish rack, opened the bag, scooped out a spoonful of soybeans, poured them into a basin and soaked them in clean water.

There is no way, the taste of the jackal meat is too strong, and it seems that the pepper alone can't suppress it.

The soybeans were soaked for an hour and swelled up.Wang Meilan looked at the time, and although it was only after two o'clock in the afternoon, she had put the jackal meat into the pot.

Animals like jackals are left in the mountains and forests every day, and the meat must be firm, and it will definitely not rot after a while.

And once stewed, it stewed for four hours.

Just after six o'clock, the father and son Li Baoyu and Li Dayong next door came back. According to the usual practice, Zhao Youcai should be working overtime in the cafeteria and won't come back for dinner.

So, Wang Meilan called Zhao Jun to put the table.

Today Wang Meilan cooked two dishes. In addition to braised jackal meat with chili and soybeans, she also fried an egg with leeks.

Because there are a lot of peppers in the jackal meat, the two little girls must not be able to eat it.Therefore, Wang Meilan reheated the red braised pork left over from yesterday and gave it to Zhao Hong and Zhao Na.

Beside the kang table, little Zhao Na held up her rice bowl and said to Zhao Jun, "Brother, give me a little less."

"Hey." Zhao Jun agreed with a smile, and only put a bowl of heart in Zhao Na's rice bowl, and then took the bowl handed over by Zhao Hong.

At this moment, a dog suddenly barked twice outside the house.

Xie Chen, who was sitting on the edge of the kang, leaned back, glanced out of the window, then hurriedly turned around and said to Zhao Jun and Wang Meilan, "My uncle is back."

"Huh?" Hearing this, Wang Meilan hurriedly put on her shoes and got off the kang, but when she went to the window, she saw that Zhao Youcai had already arrived at the door of the room.

In the next second, Zhao Youcai entered the house.While taking off his coat, he asked, "What about dinner?"

Before Zhao Jun and Jie Chen could answer, Wang Meilan grabbed Zhao Youcai from behind and asked, "Why did you come back?"

"Take the car." Zhao Youcai lied, his face was neither red nor white, and he said with a smile: "This afternoon, someone from the city came, and I was in charge of the spoon. After finishing, I missed the commuter bus, and the field sent a car to take me back. "

Wang Meilan felt that it was reasonable, so she didn't ask any more questions, but said to Zhao Youcai: "The thermos bottle in the outhouse is the water I just boiled, you can make some tea yourself."

"That..." Zhao Youcai said with a sneer, "I'll eat first, and drink tea after the meal."

"Huh?" Wang Meilan was taken aback when she heard the words. She had been married to Zhao Youcai for so many years, and she was used to Zhao Youcai not going home for dinner as long as there was an entertainment in the venue.It has been like this for more than 20 years, why is it different these days?
Yesterday he said that he had been drinking, so it was fine if he didn't eat.But the day before yesterday, today, I didn't eat or drink for two days, which is strange.

"Uncle, you go to the kang." Jie Chen got up sensiblely, and said to Zhao Youcai, "I'll get you a bowl."

"Good boy!" Zhao Youcai praised him, seeing Xie Chen walked out of the house, Zhao Youcai shouted: "Bring the wine too, we two have a drink."

After finishing speaking, Zhao Youcai took off his shoes and got on the kang, sat down in the kang, took the cup and bowl that Jie Chen handed him, buckled the bowl with his right hand, and poured two drops of water from the bottom of the bowl onto the kang table.

At this time, looking at Jie Chen pouring wine for himself, Zhao Youcai smiled and said: "When you get home, you can have a drink with me when you eat. Unlike your brother Jun, he doesn't drink."

Zhao Jun glanced at Zhao Youcai, chuckled, and said, "I can't drink with you, but I can buy you big biscuits."

As soon as Zhao Jun said this, the smile on Zhao Youcai's face froze instantly.

At this time, Wang Meilan felt that there was something in Zhao Jun's words, and hurriedly asked, "Son, what big biscuits are you talking about?"

"How can there be any big biscuits?" Zhao Youcai hurriedly took over the conversation, and said, "It's not right to drink with that thing."

Zhao Jun took a deep look at Zhao Youcai, and he felt that his father was acting weird these days. In the Northeast dialect, he said: "It's not a good thing."

Meeting Zhao Jun's gaze, Zhao Youcai grinned at him, then turned around and stretched out his chopsticks to grab the meat in the bowl.

Zhao Youcai is a chef, and he knows all kinds of common ingredients.He took a piece of meat and stopped suddenly when it reached his mouth.

Zhao Youcai turned the piece of meat over and took a look, looked at Wang Meilan in surprise, and asked, "Is this dog meat?"

"What are you talking about?" Wang Meilan rolled his eyes at him, and said angrily, "When did our family eat dog meat?"

When Zhao Youcai turned his head to look at Zhao Jun, Zhao Jun smiled and said, "Dad, try it, this is the meat of the red dog."

Hearing this, Zhao Youcai tore a piece of meat from the bone with one bite, and the meat felt very fine and chewy in his mouth.

When Wang Meilan stewed it, he put a lot of chili and soybeans to suppress most of the smell.

But these are not important, the important thing is that Zhao Youcai is hungry.

Today, Liu Jinyong and Hong Yuntao didn't go to Xinlenchang. After Zhao Youcai led Wang Qiang there, no one received them.

Fortunately, those returning to Leng are all regular employees of the forest farm, and there is no one who does not know Master Zhao.

But as soon as he entered Guileng's shack, Zhao Youcai was in trouble.

In that shack, there are all kinds of smells.

If it was before, Zhao Youcai really didn't care.However, he still wants to sneak that cannon egg to get a bonus.Can I take a bath and change clothes again tomorrow if I have to smell smoke and smell all over my body?

So, Zhao Youcai brought Wang Qiang to the cook's shack, ordered two bowls of radish stick soup from the old man who was cooking, and ate the big biscuits he bought on credit from a small shop.

After eating and drinking enough, Zhao Youcai asked the old man for half a jug of boiling water, and poured it into the military kettle he carried with him.

Then, Zhao Youcai and Wang Qiang once again embarked on the road of hunting pigs.But this afternoon, he didn't even see a pig hair.

Just like this until after four o'clock in the afternoon, Wang Qiang begged for mercy, and said that he would come with Zhao Youcai tomorrow without saying anything.

Li Dayong couldn't ask for leave, Zhao Youcai had only such a helper by his side, so he had to win over him.And he himself was tired and hungry at this time, so he went back home.

And as soon as they entered the house, they ate meat on the kang. Such a day was really beautiful.

Zhao Youcai, who ate more and more delicious, simply put down his chopsticks, picked up the jackal meat and gnawed it.

Jie Chen raised a glass to him from the side, because there was oil in his hands, Zhao Youcai pinched the cup with his right thumb and index finger, and lifted the other three fingers to clink a glass with Jie Chen.

Drinking heavily and eating meat, Zhao Youcai felt that such a life was very comfortable. It would be even more perfect if all the meat was beaten by himself.

Suddenly, dogs barking outside the house became chaotic, Zhao Youcai didn't even bother to eat the meat, he threw the meat into the bowl, put the cup on the table, and went sideways to go around the kang table.

At this time, someone shouted outside: "Zhao Jun! Zhao Jun!"

When Zhao Jun heard this, he quickly put down his chopsticks.Wang Meilan also said, "Son, go and have a look."

But after hearing this voice, Zhao Youcai broke his legs and sat back to his original position.

When Wang Meilan, Zhao Jun, mother and son came out of the house, they saw Ma Ling standing at the door, looking into the courtyard.

Zhao Jun trotted all the way, came in front of Ma Ling, and asked, "What's wrong?"

At this time, the girl's family was thin-skinned, and Ma Ling never came to Zhao Jun's house before she got married.

Therefore, Zhao Jun knew that she must have something urgent to come to him at this time.

Although she was in a hurry, Ma Ling saw Wang Meilan following her, so she greeted Wang Meilan first and said, "Auntie."

"Hey." Wang Meilan responded, and then asked: "Girl, what's wrong?"

What Zhao Jun understood, Wang Meilan naturally understood too.So she didn't invite Ma Ling into the house or anything, she just asked Ma Ling why she came.

"Auntie." At this time, Ma Ling's face showed an eager look, and said, "Do you have badger seed oil at home? My mother burned her feet."

Whether it is now or in the future, the best external medicine for treating burns is badger seed oil.

"Yes!" Wang Meilan raised her hand and tugged at Zhao Jun's arm, and said, "Hurry up, go get it for Ma Ling, put the canned bottle of badger seed oil on top of the big cabinet."

Hearing this, Zhao Jun ran into the house without saying a word, leaving Wang Meilan outside, and asked Ma Ling with concern, "Why is it so hot? Is it serious? If not, ask Dr. Han to have a look?"

"It's useless to look for him." Ma Ling told the truth, and then said: "It's serious, she didn't hold the boiling water steady, and poured it on her feet."

"Oh!" Wang Meilan sighed and said, "Then why don't you pay attention?"

Wang Meilan's words seemed to be a complaint.But among the population of this generation, such words are out of desperation.

Before Ma Ling could answer, Zhao Jun had gone and returned, holding a canned bottle in his hand, and inside the bottle was only a bottle of badger seed oil, not even a centimeter high.

Seeing this, Wang Meilan asked, "Why is this all that's left?"

Zhao Jun glanced at Wang Meilan, only nodded, and did not speak.This badger seed oil was the oil boiled from a badger seed brought by Wang Dalong in winter.

Isn't there such a saying, seven catties of badger pick up a catty of oil.

This sentence means that a badger weighing seven catties can extract a catty of oil.And the badger that Wang Dalong brought out more than half a catty of oil, filled more than half of a can.

It stands to reason that this is long enough.But Wang Meilan couldn't help being kind-hearted, chatting outside, who said that someone in his house was burnt, so Wang Meilan asked him to come to her house to get badger seed oil.

For that bottle of oil, I will pick some from this one today, and pick some from that one tomorrow, and there is only so much left now.

Seeing that Zhao Jun didn't speak, Wang Meilan took the can from Zhao Jun's hand, handed it to Ma Ling, and said, "Girl, this is enough for two times. You take it back first and use it. Zhao Jun will go up the mountain tomorrow and fix it for you." A few badgers are back."

"En!" Ma Ling hugged the bottle, nodded and said, "Thank you, Auntie."

"Thank you, it's all from my family!" Wang Meilan waved her hand with a smile, and said, "Go back quickly and put it on your mother."

Speaking of this, Wang Meilan turned to Zhao Jun and said, "Son, take Ma Ling back."

Hearing this, Ma Ling quickly refused, but Zhao Jun didn't say anything, and walked ahead first.

Seeing this, Ma Ling trotted to catch up with Zhao Jun and walked side by side with him.

Along the way, Zhao Jun paid attention to the injury of the future old mother-in-law.At that time, Wang Cuihua was working in the outhouse, so she naturally wore shoes.But she wears cloth shoes made by herself. In order to save cloth, the instep is close to the ankle and is exposed outside.

Therefore, when boiling water is poured on it, only one layer of socks is considered protection.Fortunately, Wang Cuihua overturned the tea mug, and the mug had just been half filled with water.

Zhao Jun sent Ma Ling home all the way, and went into the house to greet Wang Cuihua. When he came out, Ma Dafu personally sent him out.

But when they got home, they found that Wang Meilan and the two little girls had already finished their meal.Only Xie Chen and Zhao Youcai were still eating and drinking at the table.

"Xie Chen!" Zhao Jun said to Xie Chen: "Stop drinking, you will drive in the evening, and we will go up the mountain."

"Ah?" Zhao Youcai and Xie Chen, who were clinking glasses, were startled when they heard the words.

Wang Meilan was even more surprised and asked Zhao Jun: "Son, what are you doing up the mountain at night?"

Zhao Jun looked at Wang Meilan and laughed. He said, "Mom, why don't you agree to Ma Ling and let me catch badgers for her mother?"

"Ah." Wang Meilan was taken aback, looked at Zhao Youcai who was at the side, and asked, "Wouldn't you grab that thing as soon as you get there?"

Now, even Jie Chen, who just started the siege, laughed, that mountain farm is not your ranch, you can catch whoever you want.

Zhao Youcai, who had just put down his wine glass, also shook his head.

Seeing him like this, Wang Meilan panicked, and quickly asked Zhao Youcai, "You used to catch badgers, didn't you catch them all there?"

Zhao Youcai looked at Wang Meilan and didn't know what to say for a moment.There is no one else to blame for this matter, only Zhao Youcai and his father.

When Wang Meilan first married into this family, she heard her father-in-law talk about hunting.Later, when Zhao Dazhu was gone, Zhao Youcai started talking again.

But there is a common problem with beating people, that is, being able to blow.

But Wang Meilan is not stupid, if hunting is so easy, wouldn't everyone go hunting?What's more, her own brother Wang Qiang is still hunting.

It's just that Wang Meilan is afraid of black bears, wild boars, and big paws. She doesn't take small things like badgers seriously.

Zhao Youcai didn't go into details with Wang Meilan, but only looked at Zhao Jun and asked, "Do you bring a dog with you when you go up the mountain at night?"

"No more." Zhao Jun said: "It's just a black tiger. It has been with me for three days. Let it rest."

Upon hearing this, Zhao Youcai asked again, "Then why are you arresting him?"

"Pair!" Zhao Jun only said these three words, and went to the kang to serve a bowl of rice.
