In the famine year, the group pet cubs awakened to farm in Shanhaijing

Chapter 79 Braised Rabbit Meat
The little hedgehog's black dot-like nose shrugged: "Hmph."

Chasing the smell ignorantly, he found that the smell was behind it. Heidou raised his eyes in surprise, subconsciously stretched his limbs, and stepped on the leaves with pink feet trying to turn and crawl.

"Wow--"

Cheng Miaomiao's eyes widened in surprise: "It moved! Its belly is so white, its feet are so small, and its butt is still pink!"

Zeng Ziji also looked at it curiously, and said slowly, "It was originally small."

This little hedgehog looks like the size of a palm.

With a back full of red thorns, it is different from the ordinary gray hedgehog, and it is too rare to look at.

"Are we going to take it home and raise it?" Ji Huai used some force in his hand, pressed it in place calmly, and raised his eyes to ask.

Cheng Miaomiao immediately said: "Yes!"

She couldn't help touching its moist nose with her index finger, and the little hedgehog stopped struggling for a moment. He touched her finger with his nose in confusion, and hummed happily after feeling the familiar breath.

"Sounds like a piggy."

Suddenly, Zeng Ziji glanced at Miaomiao quietly.

It's really exactly the same as what Ji Huai said, and the humming sounds of the two are too similar.

Seeing that the little hedgehog was no longer struggling, Ji Huai wrapped it in leaves and put it back into the small basket, saying: "Then we won't continue to catch birds and come back next time. It's time to go and wait for Aunt Ye."

When mentioning the red bird, Cheng Miaomiao sighed regretfully.

But soon she cheered up again, clenched her fists, and said proudly: "Next time! Next time I must catch it! It must eat my soft food!"

Tai: "..."

You have no expression on your face, thank you for your soft rice.

Ye Ning has become accustomed to the things they picked up on the mountain.

Even so, the corners of her mouth couldn't help but twitch when she heard her daughter happily say that the story of "waiting for a rabbit" was true.

They just found a tree stump and waited, but they didn't expect that a rabbit bumped into the stump, what luck!

Cheng Miaomiao raised her head, looked at her expectantly, and said happily, "Mother, do you think spicy is better, or dry pot? If they are all delicious, then we can have a rabbit and two meals."

Do you know that one rabbit eats two?

Yeoning touches her little head, ruthlessly breaking her fantasy.

"Children can't eat too much spicy food."

"!!"

Cheng Miaomiao was greatly shocked, and hurriedly said: "But I'm almost five years old now! I'm about to be an older child!"

But this time Ye Ning was very persistent, no matter how much she acted like a baby, it wouldn't work.

After working all afternoon, I peeled the rabbit and cut it into pieces. The fur was saved and scalded, and it would be excellent to make a scarf or earmuffs for Miaomiao in winter.

In order to make this meal of braised rabbit meat, I went to Dr. Zeng’s house to buy some braised and stewed spices, put the spices into the pan and stir-fry them, then pour the drained rabbit meat into it, and with a sound of “stab——”, the iron pan A lot of white smoke came out.

Stir-fry the rabbit meat with a spatula until golden, then add soy sauce and hot water to stew. It is worth mentioning that Dr. Zeng’s house still has rice wine. When he smelled the aroma, he poured a bowl and asked his nephew to send it to the next door. Rabbit becomes more mellow.

The rich aroma floated far away from the cracks in the kitchen, and everyone who passed by could smell this aroma.

During dinner, Cheng Miaomiao only ate three or four yuan.

And one of them was smuggled by Ji Huai for her.

She could only hold the rice bowl, stare at the red, oily rabbit meat in the bowl, and said pitifully: "Why am I only four years old, how can you treat a four-year-old child like this."

Wishing that tomorrow Cheng would be eight years old and Cheng 15 years old, so that she could eat spicy food whatever she wanted.

Seeing this listless look made Dr. Zeng burst out laughing.

In the end, Cheng Lin couldn't resist her longing eyes, filled a bowl of water, put a piece into her bowl, touched her head, and said, "The last piece, I can't eat any more."

"Thank you Dad!"

Cheng Miaomiao immediately became lively again.

Ji Huai and Zeng Ziji were also not left behind by him, and they each got an extra piece.

The two families ate happily.

·
The land in the west is actually a bit barren, and there are relatively few people nearby.

I have to go down a little further to see two mud-tiled houses, in which lived Mrs. Yu, whose husband died. Her husband was a rare talented scholar in the village more than ten years ago, but he was not very good when he went to Fucheng to take the exam. Fell into the river and drowned.

She didn't listen to her family's advice to remarry, but raised their only child alone.

Two years ago, the child passed the Tongsheng examination and went to study in an academy in the county.

During this period of autumn harvest, the academy gave the children in the village a ten-day holiday as usual. Zheng Tong arrived at the house two days before his death, and the family was eating at the moment. When they smelled the aroma, they suddenly felt that the rice in the bowl was not fragrant. .

Even the fried meat on the table was tasteless.

Zheng Tongsheng couldn't help but said, "Mother, when did Dr. Zeng have such a good skill?"

Madam Yu's back was very straight, she was always serious, and there were fine lines around her eyes.

Hearing this, he frowned in dissatisfaction, looked up and said lightly: "Bai'er, what you should care about is how to study, have you forgotten how your father taught you? You can't eat or sleep. "

The harsh words made everyone's hearts tremble.

Zheng Tongsheng shook his fingers and said softly, "I know I was wrong, mother."

Madam Yu said softly, "Well, let's go to study after dinner. The college exam is coming up at the end of the month, and you just take advantage of this time to calm down and try to pass the exam once this year."

Meeting her expectant eyes, Zheng Tongsheng hesitated for a while, but still didn't say what his master told him not to end prematurely.

Her lips whispered, "Got it, mother."

Just as he finished speaking, he suddenly caught a glimpse of a small head protruding from the door.

Zheng Tongsheng couldn't help being stunned. The little girl who tied the two little hands was born with red lips and white teeth, and her eyes were very agile. Looking at it made people feel happy.He didn't spend much time in the village, and he couldn't match her with any other child for a while.

The person who came was naturally Cheng Miaomiao!
Seeing him looking over, she smiled obediently at him, stepped over the threshold with the bowl in her hand, and ran in: "Aunt Yu, Brother Zheng!"

Hearing the commotion, Madam Yu frowned and turned her head to look over.

The Zheng family's dining table is also high.

Cheng Miaomiao couldn't see what was on the table unless she stood on tiptoe. She held her head up and looked at Madam Yu, but she didn't notice that her face was a bit smelly. She just put the bowl in her hand on the table.

Inside is half a bowl of braised rabbit meat, which looks red and delicious.

Cheng Miaomiao looked at her with eyes wide open, and said softly, "Hello, Aunt Yu! The family burned rabbit meat today, and Auntie asked me to bring some over for you to taste. Even Uncle Zeng said that the rabbit is fat and delicious." Yes, it tastes great!"

As she spoke, she proudly straightened out her small chest.

"This is what we picked up by waiting for the rabbit!"
