hunting in 1986

Chapter 3 3 Wangjiatuner
By the time the 3 people carried the deer out of the mountain, it was already 4 o'clock in the afternoon, the heat had already receded, and the breeze was blowing very cool.

Walking along a dirt road more than 2 meters wide to the village, there are stretches of rice fields on both sides, and the aroma of rice flowers is in the air.

The wind blows, and the rice ears rustle when they collide.

thump~
Occasionally, a toad jumped directly into the rice field after being disturbed, and the water rippled in circles in an instant.

Dididi~沙沙沙~ The insects in the grass on the side of the road are screaming, and they merge with the cicadas to compose a unique melody.

Some villagers were working in the farmland, and when they saw Wang Yuan and the others carrying a wild deer back, they greeted each other strangely.

"Wow! Hit a deer??"

"Mr. Jiang is an old revolutionary, and his son and grandson are amazing!"

"Such a big wild deer is a blessing, envy."

There are some earthen houses in the village, most of which are surrounded by planks, which are full of traces of vicissitudes of time, and they look very down-to-earth.

A group of children danced rubber bands, twirled tops, and laughed happily in the paddock outside the village. Among them were Wang Yuan's sister "Wang Xiaodie" and the youngest daughter of the third uncle's family "Wang Xiaohua".

The two little girls were wearing gray clothes with shofar braids. Their fleshy faces were very cute, but they looked thin and small due to malnutrition.

After they found Wang Yuan and his party, they hurried over and circled around.

"Second brother, you caught a big wild deer? It's so annoying!" The younger sister Wang Xiaodie's eyes were shining, and the crystal saliva was about to flow from the corner of her mouth.

She craves meat very much.

She was too involved in the play, and her fair and delicate face was covered with dust. Wang Yuan held the big wild deer with his right hand, and wiped her face with his left hand.

Alright~ I became a little cat in an instant.

"Well, go back and tell our parents that we have hunted wild deer and returned!"

"Good good."

Wang Xiaodie and Wang Xiaohua quickly got out of the crowd and ran home on short legs, very excited as if it was Chinese New Year.

The closer you are to the village, the more crowds will be onlookers, some are happy, some are envious, and some are jealous.

For example, "Wang Shuai", who is tall and burly, wearing a black cloth vest, he and Wang Yuan are at odds, and have fought several battles since childhood.

Wang Shuai called "Uncle Sen" to Wang Yuan's third uncle, then looked at Wang Yuan and hummed, "Where did you get the wild deer? My family got a trap on the mountain, did you pick up the wild deer in the trap?" deer?"

Wang Yuan glanced at him and snorted, "Get out of here!"

"You!"

Wang Shuai's eyes widened in anger, but there was nothing he could do.The wild deer has no scars left by the condom at all, so it is absolutely impossible to be covered by the condom.

There was a lot of noise around, and many people were chatting with Third Uncle.

Walking along the dirt road in the village, I saw grandparents, parents, second aunt and third aunt waiting at the door of the house from a distance. The second uncle should have gone to the field and was not at home.

4 sets of soil houses connected together.

To the west is Wang Yuan's house, and to the east are the second uncle's house, the third uncle's house and the grandparents' house.

The houses of the four families are connected together, located in the south of Wangjiatun. They are separated from each other by independent boards, and they can take care of each other with a shout.

Grandma, parents, two aunts and some younger brothers and sisters came up to meet them, and they were all overjoyed to see the big wild deer.

After carrying the big wild deer to grandma's house in the east, Wang Yuan ignored the noisy crowd and went into the house.

ton ton ton~
The light in the low farm house was dim, the walls and roof were blackened by smoke, and the ground was also muddy, with a lot of floating soil.

Standing next to the big water urn, I scooped up some cold water from the black water urn with half a ladle, and drank it directly into my stomach.

He drank too quickly, cold water dripped from the corner of his mouth, and wet a small piece of clothes on his chest.

"Brother, are you full?"

Cousin Wang Hu came in with big strides, stood behind and stared at the ladle, he was also suffering from thirst.

"Here, you drink."

Wang Yuan drank happily, and then gave the ladle to Wang Hu. He took off his short sleeves to reveal his strong upper body, and came to the basin in the corner, and washed his face, and then washed the clothes on his body. sweat stains.

The courtyard was very noisy, and many villagers came to watch the excitement, and the discussion was carried into the house.

Sudden.

The younger sister Wang Xiaodie ran into the house with short legs, squatted on Wang Yuan's right side and said, "Second brother, how did you catch the big wild deer? Tell me, okay?"

The little girl loves to listen to stories, her eyes are shining.

Looking at the stains on her little face, Wang Yuan wet the towel and wiped her face.

The little girl squatted there with her eyes closed, allowing Wang Yuan to roughly wipe her face.

"I'll tell you later, what are Grandpa and the others doing?"

"Slaughter a deer."

"Well, no accident, we can eat venison tonight, do you like to eat venison?"

"like!"

"Where's your eldest sister?"

"Watching the deer slaughter outside."

Wang Yuan went to the house to pull the light cord, it clicked~ as expected, there was no electricity, because the power generation was low, so even though the lights were installed, there were frequent power outages.

After he came out of the back room, he heard the meowing of a cat. It turned out that it was his big white cat smelling the scent and looking for it.

As the evening approached, the wind gradually cooled down.

In 1986, there were no recreational activities in the small village at the foot of the mountain. It was considered a new thing for Wang Yuan’s family to slaughter wild deer, so many villagers came to watch.

Slaughtering a deer is a labor-intensive and time-consuming job, and requires certain skills. Grandpa invited two old men of the same generation to slaughter the deer together.

The two old men readily agreed, rolled up their sleeves, took the knife and began to dissect the deer, skin, meat, bones, viscera, head, hooves and so on.

The solution was not finished until the sun was about to set. Grandpa directly announced that he would cook "killing deer dishes" tomorrow evening and invited everyone to dinner.

The two old men who helped untie the deer each got about 3 catties of venison and some deer blood, and then went home happily. These are the best things in this era of scarcity of supplies.

Others also dispersed.

At this time, the second uncle came back with his cousin Wang Meng. They were carrying two wild Songhua river mandarin fishes weighing 5 catties. They were also very surprised when they saw the wild deer.

"Where did you get the deer?"

"It's in the forest on the other side of Xiwa."

Wang Yuan took his younger sisters Wang Qing and Wang Xiaodie back to his home, his mother had already put the food on the table, and his father was drinking white wine beside the table.

The wooden table was placed in the outhouse, surrounded by a few small benches, and bowls of steaming porridge were served on the table.

"Xiaoyuan, Xiaoqing, Xiaodie washes her hands and eats soon."

"Okay, oh~ there are meat and fried potato shreds."

"Yeah, I just came back from cutting some venison, soaked it for a while, put some wine in it, and fried the vegetables after it smelled nothing bad."

After washing his hands, Wang Yuan, his parents, and his two younger sisters sat at the low wooden table and began to eat.

After a long day of exhaustion, I feel very fragrant after eating the food. There is only meat in the potato shreds, and the fried eggplant, cucumber, tomato, etc. are all meatless.

The others were modest, so most of the meat in the last plate of potato shredded fried pork went into the little girl's stomach. The little girl who ate had her eyes bent into crescent moons, and her face was full of happiness.
