Take the supermarket back to the times

Chapter 113 What does it have to do with you?
There are different varieties of pine trees on the mountain, and the seasons when the pine cones mature are also different.

Every year from October to the end of the year, there will be ripe pine cones one after another.

There is nothing delicious in the countryside, and children like to eat some pine nuts, so they often go up the mountain to pick pine nuts.

While Su Xiaoruan was talking, he pulled Su Xiangbei away with his hands, and let the people on the opposite side clearly see the pine cones in Su Xiaoruan's hands.

Ripe pine cones are blue in color, and the pine nuts are hidden in the small petals on the surface of the pine cones. The pine cones are baked with a flame for a period of time, and then rubbed to remove the pine nuts.

At this time, what Su Xiaoruan had in his hand was the most common blue pine cone.

Yu Zhanyong's face sank, he couldn't believe that they were so happy just now, just to celebrate getting a few pine cones.

But looking around here, apart from a few big living people, there are only a few bundles of firewood on the ground.

Even if there were two hares in Su Xiangbei's back basket, but this kind of small prey, in the brigade, it was tacitly accepted that whoever caught it would own it, and there was no need to hand it over to the brigade.

Yu Zhanyong originally thought that he had caught the handle of the Su family. If they were unwilling to send their prey to the brigade, they would have to share some of the benefits.

But looking at it now, it is clear that their calculations have come to nothing.

"You big men went up the mountain, and you only got two rabbits?"

Yu Zhanyong obviously didn't believe it.

However, there was no trace of any large prey. Most importantly, it didn't look like it had just been in a fight.

Su Xiaoruan snorted softly and said, "Yu Zhanyong, you don't care about us! We went up the mountain for fun. My cousins ​​were all grown up in the city. They rarely go to the mountains, so it's rare to come with us. Picking up firewood is also against the law? Besides, what do we have to do with you?"

Yu Zhan was so courageous that his eyeballs almost popped out.

But he is a big man, and he can't fight with a little girl.

Besides, if they really do it, the other party is a tall man who has several young men, and they will definitely not get any benefits.

Su Xiaoruan didn't bother to pay attention to them, and turned her head to wink at Su Xiangbei: "Brother, let's go back. Grandma should be worried when it's late."

Although Su Xiangbei didn't know why the idiot disappeared, but when he saw the look in his sister's eyes, he knew that she had arranged everything.

Even though he is a young man, the number of times he has entered the mountains this year is one of the few. In terms of familiarity with the mountains, he is far behind this younger sister.

The group of them was going down the mountain, so Yu Zhanyong naturally couldn't stop them.

After the Su family left, Yu Zhanyong didn't believe in evil, and searched the surroundings carefully to make sure that nothing was hidden, and then returned disappointed.

On the way, Su Xiaoruan explained in a low voice: "Don't worry, I've secured the place of XZ. Let dad come and pick it up later."

Anyway, it's winter, and the prey won't be damaged if it is frozen outside for a few days, and it will still be eaten after getting it back!
When they got home, the brothers from the Su family started to peel the rabbits.

Su Xiangbei yelled: "Would Su Xiangan know? You won't just sit around, this rabbit fur has to be kept, it's a good thing. I'll point it at it to keep warm in winter."

Su Xiangan was really not very good at doing this, so he moved aside very consciously, and then watched how Su Xiangbei peeled off a piece of rabbit skin completely.

Su Xiangnan brought out a pot of hot water from the house. It's winter, and I don't want to freeze my hands. There is no shortage of hot water at home, so let's use it.

Because there is a stove burning a fire wall at home, there is never a shortage of hot water on this stove.

The inside of the hot water bottle is completely boiled, just for drinking.

If it is for washing hands and feet, or for peeling rabbits, just pour water from the pot on the stove.

Zhao Hongmei scooped two ladles of cold water into it, and stoked the fire twice to make it burn more vigorously.

The kang that Grandma Su and Su Jianye slept in were all burned through the fire in the kitchen. In this way, not to mention saving firewood, the most important thing is that the inside of the house is much cleaner, there is no dust, and it is convenient to clean at ordinary times. .

Because of the cold weather, the kang in Grandma Su's house started burning again after only an hour of rest after cooking in the morning.

It happened to be in time for steaming flower rolls and steamed buns, and by noon, two big pots had already been steamed.

On the 28th of the twelfth lunar month, Su Xiaoruan took out some minced meat from the supermarket, the fat and thin one.

Grandma Su started the ingredients herself, and then began to steam the meat stew with bowls and plates.

Grandma Su's steamed pork stew is famous for its deliciousness.

In addition to many ingredients, the ratio of sweet potato starch, water powder and meat is also very important.

Su Xiaoruan was peeling peanuts in the main room. Grandma Su was going to make peanut chili sauce, and here was to put crushed peanuts.

In the afternoon, Grandma Su is going to start croquettes, which are Su Xiaoruan's favorite food.

Su Xiaoruan doesn't like to eat the kind of soft balls in the stew, she likes to eat the ones that are still crunchy on the outside after being fried.

There are so many people this year, so the meatballs have to be deep-fried naturally. The stuff has been oiled and can be stored for a long time. In addition, it is cold in the north, so if you put it in the yard and cover it, it will be a natural refrigerator.

Su Shangxiang and his brothers helped to chop the minced meat.

Su Jianye went to the county to buy this meat early in the morning, and the town couldn't sell it anymore.

Su Xiaoruan originally wanted to get the roe deer out to eat, but Su Jianye asked her to keep it, saying that there must be guests coming during the Chinese New Year, and he would treat them at that time.

Su Xiaoruan thinks it's okay, no matter where they are in the county or the town, they will sell roe deer meat from time to time.

The whole family got busy, and even Su Jianguo, who was a cadre, was wearing an old cloth as an apron, and was helping Grandma Su to stir things up there.

If this meat stew is to be delicious, the meat must be marinated after adding the ingredients. Stir it a little longer, so that the meat in this stew will be chewy and the taste will be more even. .

Zhao Yingzi lit the fire, and Zhao Hongmei helped the old lady start mixing the ingredients together.

Su Xiaoruan peeled half a pot of peanuts and felt pain in her fingers.

It's really delicate, let alone peeling peanuts before, even working in the field is not so delicate.

Su Xiangbei and Su Xiangan were helping to clean up the yard, and at the same time they had to pile up the large pieces of firewood that they had just brought back today to the old house.

Su Jianjun was carrying a snakeskin bag on his back, and he started shouting as soon as he entered the door.

"It's so fragrant! Mom must be making meat stew!"

Su Xiaoruan got up and called Second Uncle, and then saw Li Li also entered the room behind her.

The smile on Su Xiaoruan's face obviously faded a little, and he stopped talking after calling the second aunt.

Grandma Su came out of the house and said with a smile: "Is it cold on the way? You two came here by bicycle?"

Li Li replied directly: "The cars don't run now, why don't we ride bicycles? We are not as lucky as big brother, and there are people to pick him up."
