Return to the small mountain village in 1986

It was not until night that Gao Mingcheng realized something was wrong. The big yellow dog did not go home, but kept following Black Tiger and Elf.

And when he fed rabbit meat to the black tiger and the elf, the black tiger and the elf were actually willing to share some food with the big yellow dog.

Not right, definitely not right!
Gao Mingcheng sat on the bench and observed the big yellow dog carefully. Only then did he realize that the big yellow dog was a female dog, and its belly was slightly big, as if she was pregnant with puppies.

Gao Mingcheng was stunned for a moment, then looked suspiciously at Black Tiger and Elf.

Could it be that the big yellow dog was abducted by his own dog?Is the big yellow dog carrying a black tiger cub or an elf cub in its belly?
Gao Ming Cheng Wu thought to himself for a while, and finally realized that no matter whose cub was born, it would be his puppy after birth, and he had to raise it!
Of course, the premise is that the owner of the big yellow dog doesn't come to find him.

The three dogs on the ground were eating rabbit meat, and the two men by the fire were also eating rabbit meat.

This time, Gao Mingcheng cooked roast rabbit for Fan Licheng. He built a simple stove with stones directly outside the yard, then lit a fire in the stove and put a wire mesh on the stove so that it could be used. Here comes the grilled marinated rabbit.

This wire fence was left over from the mountain siege in the spring, and it can be used as a barbecue grill.

Rabbit meat was roasting on the wire mesh. When the stove fire produced ashes, Gao Mingcheng wrapped the eggs in lotus leaves and buried them in the ashes with sparks. In this way, when the rabbit meat on top was cooked, the eggs below were also cooked.

It was the first time for Fan Licheng to eat roasted rabbit like this, and he felt it was particularly novel. Since it was baked by himself, he actually ate a whole rabbit!

Since he started training with the boxer, his appetite has indeed become bigger than before. Besides, at his age, it is when his body begins to develop. This is the age when the so-called half-grown man is poor.

Fan Licheng burped, but looking at the roasted eggplant, eggs, and cut watermelon beside him, he felt that he could eat some more!
How can you eat barbecue without drinking wine?So Gao Mingcheng poured a glass of bayberry wine from home. The alcohol content of the bayberry wine was not very high and had a fruity smell, which was perfect with barbecue.

"Would you like a drink?" Noticing Fan Licheng staring at the wine in his glass, Gao Mingcheng handed it to Fan Licheng generously.

Fan Licheng struggled for a while and then said: "I will only take a small sip."

"Of course, if you drink too much and I won't give it to you, just try it! I brewed it myself with bayberry. The bayberry on the tree has produced a lot of fruit this year, and the price is pretty good."

Gao Mingcheng had a smile on his face. He felt that these bayberry trees were well planted. Even if they were sold for one yuan a pound now, they could still sell a lot.The life span of bayberry trees is very long. As long as they are taken care of well, they will still be in their peak fruiting period in three to forty years. By then, prices have also risen a lot. After one year, the money sold for bayberry trees is only tens of thousands.

This money may not seem like a lot, but it is more stable, and coupled with the income from other fruit trees in Xiaofushan, it is pretty good.

However, there are still a few bayberry trees planted now. He is wondering whether to buy a few more trees or graft them himself.

Grafting is not difficult. There are wild bayberry trees in the mountains that can be used as rootstocks. Then he takes a section from the bayberry branches in Xiaofushan as the scion. After the grafting is successful, he can have an additional batch of Dongkui bayberry trees.

Grafting and propagating by yourself can also save money on buying seedlings.

"This wine is delicious!" Fan Licheng's eyes lit up after he had just taken a sip of bayberry wine. He couldn't help but take another sip. When he wanted to drink again, the glass was taken away by Gao Mingcheng.

"You can't drink any more. You're still young, you just have to taste it! When you grow up, I can give you a bottle of wine!" Gao Mingcheng said.

Fan Licheng still had more to say, but he would not force it and ate the roasted eggplant honestly.

The eggplants are picked from the field. After being washed, the whole thing is placed on the edge of the wire mesh. It is slowly roasted over a charcoal fire until soft. Then it is brushed with a layer of oil. Use chopsticks to separate the eggplants. Sprinkle with oil, chili pepper and minced garlic, and wait until they are cooked. After eating it, it tastes delicious.

Gao Mingcheng drank and ate meat while drinking. He caught a total of five rabbits and gave one to the two dogs. Fan Licheng also ate one, and most of the remaining three went into Gao Mingcheng's stomach.

At this moment, Chen Dasong's youngest son Chen Duoxi suddenly came over.

The air was filled with the aroma of barbecue, and there was a rabbit leg placed on the wire fence. The heat from the charcoal made the fat in the rabbit meat sizzle.

"Brother Mingcheng." Chen Duoxi didn't get very close, but stopped a few meters away from Gao Mingcheng.

He smelled the scent of meat in the air and swallowed hard.

Although there are many more opportunities to eat meat at home this year, at his age, there is no one who is not greedy for meat, not to mention that this is barbecue, which is more delicious!
Gao Mingcheng was a little surprised when he saw him coming, but he warmly greeted him and asked Chen Duoxi to eat rabbit meat.

"It's just a good time. There's just one rabbit leg left. You can take it and eat it!"

Chen Duoxi's eyes brightened, and he was seriously tempted, but he still held back because he came here not to eat meat, but to ask Gao Mingcheng for something else.

"Brother Mingcheng, can I take your car tomorrow? I want to go outside and have a look." Chen Duoxi's heart was beating fast, but he still mustered up the courage to say what he wanted to say.

He had this idea a long time ago, but he never dared to say it out loud. Now he felt that he had found an opportunity, so he hurried over.

Fan Licheng had been to Gaojiacun last year. When he came again this year, Chen Duoxi thought of one thing, that is, Gao Mingcheng would leave early tomorrow morning to send Fan Licheng home, and then come back again!

Chen Duoxi, on the other hand, can take the opportunity to go outside and have a long experience.

His character is a bit extravagant, completely different from his brother's down-to-earth character.

Gao Mingcheng was a little surprised when he heard this request, but he could not understand it. In fact, many people in the village yearned for the outside world, but few dared to really leave this familiar small mountain village.Gao Mingcheng did not hesitate and directly agreed to Chen Duoxi's request.

Chen Duoxi's character is somewhat similar to that of his younger son. They both have a restless heart and are eager to see the outside world, so when he sees Chen Duoxi, he occasionally feels close to her.

"Okay, there are still seats in the car. How about it? You go back and ask your brother. If he wants to go too, I will take you two brothers to go together."

"Really? Thank you so much!" Chen Duoxi didn't expect that Gao Mingcheng would agree to her request. She was so surprised that she didn't know what to do.

Gao Mingcheng not only agreed to take him there, he was also willing to take his brother with him!

When she thought of this, Chen Duoxi was spinning in excitement.

"I...I'm going to ask my brother now..." Chen Duoxi wanted to go home right away.

This time he mustered up the courage to come to Gao Mingcheng on his own, without mentioning it to his family at all.

"Hey, wait, you can take this rabbit leg to eat. I've almost eaten it anyway." Gao Mingcheng stopped Chen Duoxi and forced the rabbit leg to him.

He never paid Chen Duoxi a salary, but Chen Duoxi often came over to help.

"Thank you, Brother Mingcheng!" Chen Duoxi thanked him sweetly, and then ran happily towards his home with the warm rabbit legs. He couldn't wait to tell his family the good news.

Chen Duoxi felt that she had never run so fast before. The wind was whistling in her ears, and her whole body seemed to be flying.

When he rushed home, he couldn't wait to tell the story, and then began to express his excitement.

"...I have never been outside, and I have only been to the county town once. Haha, now I can follow Brother Mingcheng to go outside! I am so happy!"

"Brother, Brother Mingcheng also asked you to come with us!"

"Brother Mingcheng is such a good man!"

Before Gao Mingcheng knew it, he had already received several good guy cards in a row!

However, after Chen Dasong and his wife heard the news, they were immediately shocked, and then they felt that Chen Duoxi was joking.

Chen Dasong reprimanded: "Ming Cheng is doing something, what are you doing to disturb him? After he has sent people away, he can stay in the county, but if you follow him, he will have to send you back to the village. This is not for him Did it cause trouble?"

Chen Duoxi was stunned. He didn't think of this at first, but he still didn't want to miss this good opportunity, so he said: "I don't need Brother Mingcheng to take me back to the village. When I get to the county, I will take the shuttle bus back by myself." , or you can just walk back!”

"Nonsense, you don't know the way, how can you walk back?" Chen Dasong scolded again.

But Chen Duoxi held her neck and said, "I have a mouth, I can ask for directions!"

Seeing that his father and brother were at a deadlock, Chen Duofu broke the deadlock: "Dad, my brother and I will go together. When we get to the county, I will take him back by bus. I know where to take the bus."

Chen Dasong was slightly startled, with an unexpected look in his eyes.

His eldest son has always been down-to-earth, so he never expected that his eldest son would say this.

Since the two brothers said so, and Gao Mingcheng had agreed before, Chen Dasong no longer stopped him and could only let them go.

But there is one thing I still have to say: "You can go with me, but don't cause trouble for Ming Cheng! When you come back, be careful when you work! Ming Cheng gave us a salary, which is good for our family. This time I’m also willing to take you out to learn more, so you have to work hard in the future, but you can’t let him down.”

"okay, I get it."

The two brothers said in unison.

Chen Duoxi's face was full of smiles, and her heart was filled with joy.

It was only now that he remembered that he was holding a roasted rabbit leg in his hand, so he quickly handed it to Chen Dasong, saying that he wanted his parents to eat it.

But most parents take care of their children first, so Chen Dasong said: "We won't eat, you and your brother can share it!"

A rabbit leg is not very big, just enough for one person, and enough for two people to enjoy it.

But neither Chen Duoxi nor Chen Duofu refused to eat alone and insisted that everyone share it. Finally, Aunt Liu took the rabbit leg to the kitchen and cut it into four small pieces with a knife.

The whole family feels happy when they eat a small piece. (End of chapter)
