hunting in 1986

Chapter 5 Chapter 5
Deep night.

The cold wind was blowing outside the window, the window frame slammed slightly, and the crickets chirped at the base of the wall, creating a sense of tranquility in the summer night.

Westinghouse.

Wang Yuan's consciousness returned to the body from the mysterious space, looked at the crescent moon and the stars through the window, and secretly said:
"The mysterious space of 10 acres of land will be used as a warehouse + breeding farm first... Slowly life will get better and better, come on! Go to bed, and tomorrow you can eat a big meal of venison, so looking forward to it .”

Soon, Wang Yuan fell asleep soundly.

The next day.

It rained lightly in the morning, and the raindrops slanted against the dirt wall, making the wall wet.

On the east side of Wang Yuan’s yard, on the side next to the second uncle’s house, there are grape racks and gourd racks. Bunches of blue grapes and large green gourds nearly half a meter long are hung on the wooden racks, which look impressive. people rejoice.

The rain stopped around 9 am.

After lunch at noon, Wang Yuan's family, the second uncle's family and the third uncle's family came to the grandfather's house in the east, and began to prepare for the "whole deer feast".

"Father, how much venison are you cooking?"

"Let's make 50 catties of venison, and those ribs and offal should be enough to eat." Grandpa added firewood to the bottom of the big iron pot, and the scarlet flames were dancing.

Grandma is cutting the dried peppers, Dangdang~ The red Chaotian peppers have been cut into sections, and she said with joy on her face:
"Except for our own family, the other people who come to eat are the few families in the village. People with ordinary relationships are too embarrassed to eat meat, so 50 catties of meat must be enough."

"Put some stickmeal pancakes on. The pancakes are served with a large piece of venison. It's the most delicious. If it doesn't work, my saliva will flow out."

Grandpa laughed and said: "About 200 catties of meat from a 120-jin wild deer were cut out, 6 catties were given to the person who helped butcher the deer yesterday, and another 50 catties were stewed today, leaving more than 60 catties.

Of the more than 60 catties of meat, take out another 30 catties and give it to other relatives. For the remaining 30 catties of meat, your family will share 10 catties, and the remaining 3 to 4 catties will be enough for our old couple. "

Although the family has separated, they live very close together and occasionally eat together, so many things are still decided by the head of the family, Grandpa.

Grandpa is quite fair, and everyone will naturally be convinced.

The second uncle hung bamboo baskets on the back of the [-]-bar bicycle, and put pieces of venison wrapped in paper.

After listening to grandma telling him who to give this one to and who to give that one to, he crossed his legs and sat on the seat, then pedaled away on the bicycle.

The venison is almost all lean meat with beautiful patterns. Set up a few large iron pots in the yard and start stewing venison, ribs, offal and so on.

Parents and grandparents can do these things, not to mention there are a few families with close blood ties to help, so Wang Yuan and other juniors can't intervene.

Wang Yuan was sitting on the bench on the right side of the door, cleaning Third Uncle's Gongzao Type [-] rifle. This type of gun is single-shot, and it's no problem for shooting black and blind people.

Carefully wiping the shotgun with a cloth, Wang Yuan couldn't put it down.

"Cuckoo~"

An old hen seemed to have laid an egg in a cylindrical grass hen nest on the right. After flying to the yard, it clucked non-stop. Xiaodie ran over and soon took out an egg with a happy face.

"Second brother, the eggs are still warm."

"Well, take it in the house and put it in the basket on the cabinet."

"Good good~"

The little girl quickly ran into the house on her short legs.

At this moment, cousin Wang Hu came over and squatted on the left side of Wang Yuan. He looked at the lively crowd in the yard, then looked at the shotgun in Wang Yuan's hand and said:
"Brother, I saw Wang Shuai at the mouth of the village this morning. He took a few people and dogs into the mountains to hunt, and it is said that he will also bring back a wild deer... He must be jealous of us."

"Oh? Let's talk about it first after he can find the wild deer."

Wang Yuan shook his head and laughed. The Xiaoxing'an Mountains stretches across a vast area, and there are many wild deer in it, but when it comes to a certain small forest, there are very few wild deer.

It is not easy to find wild deer.

The reason why Wang Yuan and the others were able to meet a wild deer was largely due to luck.

The two were chatting about something, and soon he and Wang Yuan chatted about other things, such as - hunting bears.

After a while, by 4:[-] in the afternoon, the venison, ribs, offal, etc. were cooked.

20~30 people gathered together and set up 4~5 tables in the yard of the grandfather's house. Everyone sat around and ate happily, heartily and happily.

The smell of meat was wafting, and almost half of the people in the village could smell the fragrance, but they could only silently swallow their saliva, curse, and then continued to eat the rough and unpalatable pancakes.

This is the case with Wang Shuai's family.

Their family was also eating in the yard, smelling the scent, Wang Shuai felt that his soul was going to be taken away, and the saliva was unconsciously secreted in large quantities, and he cursed bitterly in his heart:
"Cao, I wandered around in the forest for a long time today, and I didn't even see the shadow of a wild deer. It was a waste of time. Why didn't I have the good luck to run into a wild deer?"

Jealousy made him almost go crazy, but in the end he could only continue to eat the unpalatable pancakes.

Grandpa's house.

Wang Yuan sat next to the low wooden table, chomping on the meat under the setting sun. The venison was stewed for a long time, and the tongue almost melted in his mouth when he rolled it.

There were still a lot of pieces of meat on the plate in front of him, and the aroma mixed with the heat wafted out, making the big white cat not far away meow meowingly.

"Meow meow~"

The fat big white cat wagged the tip of its tail, then arched Wang Yuan's calf with its big furry head.

"Why? You also want to eat meat, so I'll give you a piece." Wang Yuan directly gave the big white cat a piece of meat, and the latter ate happily, his beard curled up in excitement.

The second aunt smiled and said, "Xiaodie Xiaohua, is the venison delicious?"

"delicious!"

"Fragrant, really fragrant!"

The two little girls were sitting on Wang Yuan's left, their mouths were full of greasy food, and it felt like it was Chinese New Year. The happy smiles hung on their little faces, as if they could heal all the pain in the world.

"Come on, Xiaoyuan eat pancakes, this pancake absorbs the soup from the pork ribs, it's super delicious."

"Okay, okay, do you have any green onions? Give me some."

"I'm going to pull it out of the vegetable garden."

Cousin Wang Hu volunteered to run to the south. The south of the house is the dirt road in the village, and the south of the dirt road is the vegetable garden.

There is a fence made of wooden sticks around the vegetable garden, and tomatoes, cucumbers, beans, eggplants, green onions, peppers and other vegetables are planted inside.

A row of vegetables is in good order, the breeze blows the leaves rustling, and the ground has been cleared without a single weed, which looks very pleasing to the eye.

Wang Hu pulled out more than 20 green onions and shared them with everyone.

Put some sauce in the small dish, choose a green onion, and eat with the white onion dipped in the sauce, a bite of shallot dipped in the sauce, a bite of meat, and a bite of pancakes, instantly full of happiness.

After eating a lot of venison, Wang Yuan went to serve some spare ribs, and distributed some spare ribs to the two little girls, and he ate the rest.

"Hey, this bone marrow smells so good~"

Wang Yuan ate some of the meat on the surface of the ribs, and then sucked the bone marrow to eat. The bone marrow was in a semi-jelly state and was very fragrant. After chewing it in his mouth and swallowing it, he immediately felt very comfortable.

After eating the ribs, there are some internal organs to eat at the end. I enjoyed it very much, and then I drank some rib soup, refreshing~
Everyone was full after a meal, and they sat at the wooden table without getting up, and just started chatting like that.

"It's so delicious, if only I could eat like this every day."

"Haha~ how can I eat like this every day, the next time I eat meat like this is Chinese New Year."

Grandpa looked around and felt very satisfied when he saw that people had finished eating: "Mother, how much meat is left in the pot?"
