Traveling through the ages with the hotel, being doted on by four brothers

Chapter 229: I won't take advantage of others

With such delicious food, you can eat whatever staple food you want, just steam two sweet potatoes or potatoes.

Xia Chan and his friends returned home and separated everyone's fish without mixing them together, because they didn't want others to accuse them of taking advantage of them. However, they put their own fish together.

Xia Bin, Jin Pengfei and Jin Pengyuan processed the fish together. They first processed the fifteen fish from their own family. One of them killed the fish with scissors, one used a kitchen knife, and Jin Pengyuan was responsible for removing the fish gills, chopping off the fish heads, and picking out the fish offal.

When Xiao Tiantian and Yuan Bingbing came over with the pot, Xia Chan said to them, "You haven't processed the fish yet. What are you going to do with the remaining fish body after taking out the fish head and fish offal?"

Xiao Tiantian and Yuan Bingbing were in the same dormitory, and they shared five fish equally, so they had to discuss how to divide the fish among themselves, otherwise it would be easy to have conflicts. Even brothers have to settle accounts clearly, not to mention that they actually have no relationship.

"How about we each catch one of the three-jin and four-jin ones, and keep the five-jin ones for ourselves." Xiao Tiantian looked at Yuan Bingbing, "Sister Bingbing, is that okay? If possible, let Xia Chan help us process the five-jin ones into pickled fish, and we can eat them slowly."

Yuan Bingbing nodded, "Sure, that's very fair."

Then he smiled and said to Xia Chan, "Xiao Chan, thank you for your help."

After her brothers had cleaned up all the fish, Xia Chan went to make fish heads stewed with tofu. She first cooked Xiao Tiantian and Xiao Fengfeng's ten fish heads in one pot, and then cooked her own fifteen fish heads in another pot. They would eat their own fish heads together later, and let Xiao Tiantian and the others take them back and eat them slowly.

The pot in the kitchen and the stove on the kang were stewing together, and soon the fish head stewed with tofu was ready. Xia Chan put Xiao Tiantian and the others' fish head stewed with tofu into the pot they brought, and then used the pot to make sauerkraut fish for Xiao Tiantian and the others. She also added some other side dishes so that the two of them could eat more.

Finally, Xia Chan started to make the fish offal hotpot. The offal from twenty-five fish plus some side dishes made a full pot, which was definitely enough for the six of them to have a good meal.

Xia Chan's family received a total of fifteen fish. The brothers kept the three five-jin fish to eat fresh, and pickled the rest. When the time comes, they can smoke the fish and send them to others. They also pickled the fish for Xiao Tiantian, Yuan Bingbing, and Xiao Fengfeng, but didn't leave them too open, and they also marked them for fear of making mistakes.

They, the brother and sister, would never take advantage of others.

After dinner, Xiao Tiantian and Yuan Bingbing went back with fish head stewed with tofu and pickled fish. They only brought one pot, so Xia Chan also brought a casserole for them to put the pickled fish in. Both dishes were full pots, and the two girls could eat them for several days after heating them up.

On the 25th day of the twelfth lunar month, the winter hunting team finally came back. The team leader asked them to go home and rest, and then the village cadres quickly counted the number and weight of the prey. Because it was already the 25th day of the twelfth lunar month, there were not many days left, and the meat must be distributed to everyone before the New Year so that everyone can have a good year. Xia Qi finally went home, and Xia Chan was very happy. She had four brothers, but Xia Qi understood her the most and was the one who was most willing to play with her, so Xia Chan had the deepest sibling relationship with Xia Qi.

As soon as Xia Qi came back, Xia Chan immediately served him tea and water and asked him about his well-being, which made the other brothers a little jealous. When they came back from winter hunting before, Xia Chan also took good care of them, but not even a fraction of what he did to Xia Qi. They were all brothers, so why did Xia Qi get the best care?

How can they not be jealous?
After the hot water was boiled, Xia Chan gave clean clothes to Xia Qi and urged him to take a hot bath quickly. After being a savage in the deep mountains and forests for more than twenty days, his body was probably smelly. After Xia Qi finished taking a bath and packed up, Xia Chan urged him to rest quickly, telling him to concentrate on resting and not worry about anything.

Xiao Tiantian also helped Xiao Fengfeng heat the kang, boil water for bathing, and clean the room.

There were two people in Zhou Ji's dormitory, and Yuan Bingbing couldn't help him, so she asked him to bring his lunch box over and she packed some food for him. Thinking that his roommate had also worked hard in the mountains hunting for so long, she asked Zhou Ji to bring his lunch box over as well.

You can't just let him watch Zhou Ji eat and then swallow his saliva, right?
Yuan Bingbing packed two lunch boxes of pickled fish and six steamed buns, handed the things to Zhou Ji, and went to the threshing ground with Xiao Tiantian to watch the prey. Last year, when the Yong'an Production Team distributed meat, she brought her colleagues here to exchange for a lot of meat, but she did not see the spectacular scene of killing the prey.

The two men came to the threshing ground and saw the prey all over the ground. Their eyes widened in surprise. No wonder the winter hunting team was gone for half a month or twenty days. After all, it was not easy to catch so many prey.

As an educated youth, Yuan Bingbing can also get some meat this year, and she only needs to split it equally with Xiao Tiantian, so she doesn't need to exchange meat this year. Several dozen kilograms of meat are enough for her family to eat.

The team leader also wanted to distribute the meat to everyone as soon as possible, so he worked overtime to collect the pheasants and rabbits directly. These would be sent to state-owned restaurants, which would also ease the supply pressure of rabbits.

Although we have bred a lot of rabbits this year, we can’t just sell them all this year. Are we just not going to care about them in the future?
As soon as the team leader finished counting the prey, he sent someone to the halfway point of the mountain to call Xia Chan to come down and drive a tractor to deliver the part that needed to be handed over. The commune agreed to let them go into the mountains to hunt, but there was one requirement, which was that 30% of the prey had to be handed over to the commune, and the rest would belong to the production team and be distributed to everyone by the team leader.

Xia Chan is now teaching the team leader's second daughter-in-law, Fan Qingmei, how to use a tractor. From now on, these things will naturally be done by Fan Qingmei. So when we hand in the prey to the commune today, we asked Fan Qingmei to go along and let Fan Qingmei drive the tractor on the flat road.

Although Fan Qingmei's performance is not as good as Xia Chan's, there are still more than three years before Xia Chan takes the college entrance examination. Xia Chan still has a lot of time to train her, so there is no need to rush. Just let her learn slowly. After a long time, she will naturally learn everything.

After handing in the prey, everyone returned immediately. After all, there were still many things to do!
After driving the tractor to the destination and handing over the prey to the team leader and Fan Qingmei, Xia Chan took the opportunity to go to the black market to find Wen Feng and make the last transaction before the New Year. Except for some summer fruits and vegetables that she kept for her family, she sold 80% of the rest and exchanged them for money, tickets, gold, silver and jade.

On the way back, the tractor was empty, so Xia Chan let Fan Qingmei drive the tractor the whole time, and she sat beside him ready to deal with any emergencies. If there were no emergencies, she would not have to worry about anything, and could just sit in the tractor driven by someone else and enjoy the service of someone else.
