Zhuang Fu Lang

People in the surrounding villages have heard about the bears in the mountains, but no one believed it at first. After all, everyone has lived here for so many years and there has been no large beast attacking people.The people of Lijiacun scolded the people of Shenjiacun for being unpredictable and spread rumors, the purpose is to prevent everyone from going up the mountain, so as to monopolize the resources, so that everyone is not caught in the trap!He was kindly treated as a donkey and was beaten down. Shen Dezhong was so angry that he almost didn't yell at him and threw the bear's paw on the opponent's face. The village talent of Lijiacun shut his mouth.But everyone was still dubious.

Shen Yanbei has nothing to say about this. No one else met, but he did. He blamed his roasted chicken for being too fragrant, or the black bear for being too gluttonous?

Whether he believes it or not, he has been notified that he has done his best!

Two days later, it will be the May Festival. In addition to making rice dumplings, the custom here is to hang colorful gourds, tie colorful ropes, drink realgar wine, wear sachets and other methods to help family members to cure diseases, avoid evil and help luck.

A big man in Shen Yanbei naturally doesn't know how to make colorful gourds and weave colorful ropes, but the villagers prepared them for him.The aunts in the village said that his daughter-in-law was injured and it was inconvenient to do this, so they gave him what they had to do, and comforted him that he would be lucky if he survived the catastrophe, so that his wife could heal his injuries.

Shen Yanbei wondered how the villagers suddenly became so enthusiastic. Shen Dezhong took a breath of dry smoke and said, "Everyone, I am grateful for you to remove the black bear." The villagers of these villages have to go to the mountains and get firewood. , Picking herbs, and hunting game, Gu Changfeng was brought back with his head covered in blood, and the villagers were shocked. These days are too easy and they forget that there are cannibal beasts on the mountain.

Shen Yanbei knew it, and took out the dumplings he had wrapped: "This is the dumplings I wrapped. Uncle Zhong, please try it." The dumplings wrapped by the villagers here have an ordinary candied date and mung bean flavor. The package is a modern luxury version of rice dumplings, mung bean pork dumplings, salted egg yolk meat dumplings.

Knowing that Shen Yan Beibao's zongzi was different, Shen Dezhong was not polite with him and accepted it directly.

"There is something else I want to discuss with Uncle Zhong." Shen Yanbei took out a jar of capers."This is my pickled capers. It's hot and everyone has a bad appetite. It's time to eat something sour for dinner. This jar will give you a fresh taste."

"Caper beans?" Shen Dezhong took the jar and just opened the seal, a strong sour smell floated out.

"You can use it to stir-fry minced pork with porridge, or make stuffing to make buns." Shen Yanbei said, "This thing is well preserved and can be stored for a year. I want to buy some beans with the villagers to pickle sour. Beans." The capers are good for cooking or side dishes. The most important thing is that they are cheap and delicious. As the shopkeeper Liu at the restaurant said, the new dishes are quite popular with customers.

Shen Dezhong asked the wife to take a clean spoon and dig out some to taste it. The irritating acid made him squint: "It's quite sour!" The acid of tamarind beans is not the same as that of sauerkraut, but it is equally irritating. Taste buds.

"This tamarind is troublesome to pickle? How long can you eat?"

"It's not troublesome, it can be eaten for two or three days as short, and as long as one day." The method of sauerkraut here is more cumbersome and troublesome, and it must be fermented in a jar for about a month before it can be used. In contrast, the advantages of capers are very good. obvious.

"Okay, let me talk to the villagers." Shen Dezhong responded and asked how Shen Yanbei had done recently. After Shen Yanbei told him that Li Zhiyuan intended to mention him, Shen Dezhong was overjoyed, patted him on the shoulder, and said: "The county grandfather is a learned man. It's rare that he is willing to give you pointers, so don't let him down!"

Shen Yanbei repeatedly said yes.Before leaving, Shen Dezhong reminded him: "Remember when you drink realgar wine, spray some in your mouth along the periphery of the wall of your home to drive away evil spirits."

"Good." Shen Yanbei smiled.When he was a child, he didn't have so many things to pay attention to during the Dragon Boat Festival in the countryside. Instead, he would put some wormwood on the door. His grandmother would go to the mountains to get some wormwood, calamus, Jiujiefeng and other herbs to boil water for him to bathe.The burning water had a strong and unique herbal aroma, which he remembered deeply.

Because they had to spend the festival with their family, Su Qingze and Ming'an took Shen Yanbei's festival ceremony-a jar of tamarind beans, a basket of salted duck eggs and several pairs of zongzi back to the county.

Upon learning that Su Qingze had encountered a black bear and had been attacked, Su Wanqing was so scared that she spilled the tea, and Li Zhiyuan was so scared that her heart almost stopped.But the young man was not frightened. Instead, he told them vividly how dangerous the situation was at the time, and how Gu Changfeng bravely fought with the black bear, making them wonder whether to praise him for his courage, or to reprimand him for not being able Good run around.

It's all right, but the other party was injured to protect her brother. Su Wanqing's Liu Mei frowned: "Is the husband of Shen Xiucai seriously injured?"

"Big Brother Gu looked in good spirits, but I saw Big Brother Shen feeding him, and he seemed to be hurt." Su Qingze's eyes were worried.When Gu Changfeng fainted, he shed a lot of blood, and Shen Yanbei's face was gloomy, and the appearance that strangers should not enter made him feel a little bit envious.

Su Wanqing was taken aback for a moment, and said, "Then let Doctor Lin show him, and you will bring him some medicinal materials to replenish his body by the way."

"Yeah!" Su Qingze pointed to the pickled cabbage jars and salted duck eggs on the table: "Big Brother Shen asked me to bring them back. He made them himself. The jars contain pickled capers, which are used to stir-fry meat. Mo Ke is ready for dinner! And this salted duck egg, you can eat three bowls with porridge!"

Li Zhiyuan frowned slightly, the courtesy was not expensive but it was all his heart, but his thoughts were spent on eating whether...

Su Qingze then took out a stack of manuscripts: "This is Big Brother Shen who asked me to show my brother-in-law for your purpose. Brother-in-law, take a look?"

Li Zhiyuan took it and flipped it, and the more he looked, the more satisfied he became.I couldn't help nodding, it seems that this Shen Xiucai is quite attentive in learning...

"Uncle, stack up high!" The little nephew came over and took Su Qingze's hem, his big black eyes were full of joy.

"Hey, good!" Su Qingze picked up his nephew and went to play with building blocks happily.

Su Wanqing shook her head and sighed: "When can this detached temperament be changed?" If it hadn't been for her brother who was clamoring to go to the mountain to play, a few people would not have encountered a black bear. Fortunately, nothing happened.

"What's wrong with young people playing around?" Li Zhiyuan said casually.

Su Wanqing gave him a white glance: "What's so good? It's always going to be married. Can this kind of temperament be liked by her husband?"

"Does his husband like it?" Li Zhiyuan said in his heart. The reason why the man is so attached to his brother-in-law might be because he likes him!

This certain tone made Su Wanqing wonder: "Do you know something?"

"Hehe, madam, you think too much, what can I know?" Li Zhiyuan touched his nose and dare not say more.His father-in-law and mother-in-law didn't tell his wife about this, and he didn't know if his wife would shut him out if he knew about it in the future.

With a cold snorted, Su Wanqing called the maid to let the kitchen prepare the banquet, while Li Zhiyuan took Shen Yanbei’s work to the study to make corrections. After the meal was set, several people washed their hands and enjoyed the family banquet.

In Shenjiacun, because Su Qingze is not eating, Shen Yanbei made a table of delicious dishes: chicken with scallion oil, salt and pepper shrimp, taro meat, duck vermicelli soup, stuffed tofu, cold cucumber.

Zhou Yu also went home to spend the festive season with Yu Po, only Shen Yanbei and Gu Changfeng were in the house.It’s a rare experience to enjoy the world of two people. Shen Yanbei smiled and poured a glass of realgar wine for Gu Changfeng: "Let’s eat, and you will go to the bamboo forest after eating." He raised many chickens on the ten acres of bamboo forest. Counting time, the chicks should have grown new feathers.

Gu Changfeng said "Yes" and gave Shen Yanbei a chicken leg.This scallion chicken is delicious and tender, which makes the index finger move just by looking at it.He hadn't eaten such a smooth chicken, and he didn't know how Shen Yanbei had so many recipes in his mind, and he could make so many tricks as a chicken!

Everyone in Shenjia Village was celebrating the festival happily, but some people in Lijia Village next door couldn't eat it.

They have also contacted the construction team to pick a lucky day to start construction of the school, but who would have thought that the above had not passed their approval!

Li Yi's face was dark, and he patted the handrail heavily, his eyes full of dissatisfaction: "Isn't it said that the dredging is good? How can the matter come to an end but it is done!"

Li Zhengyuan, the mayor of Lijiacun, stroked the goat's beard, his face was not easy to see where he went: "Do you think someone is causing troubles?"

"You mean?" Li Yi frowned, his eyes angry.

"Then Young Master Su is his friend, and the county grandfather won't stop buying his face." They Lijiacun and Shenjiacun have been at odds for a long time, and it is said that this school was built in their Lijiacun, and Shenjiacun was unhappy!It's normal to find ways to stop it!

Li Yi gritted his teeth: "It's unreasonable! How dare I spoil my good deeds!"

"You almost made him embarrassed at the crown ceremony last time, he hates you!" Li Zhengyuan soothed, "Office studies have to be discussed long-term."

"How else to plan? It's too late!" Li Yi said angrily, hatred in his heart rolling.Why is this person so lucky?Even if there are noble people to help you at the ceremony, you can come back alive when you meet a black blind man!Why didn't the black blind solve him?

"Master Liu can't take it any longer?"

"There is only one vacancy, and there is no such shop after passing this village! Lord Liu asked me to send the money quickly!" Li Yi clenched his fists and said solemnly, "That's a fat man!"

"Then I have to think about other ways." Li Zhengyuan was helpless.

Li Yi flew into a rage: "What else can I do? Where can I get that large sum of money?"

"Look for member Li to borrow first?"

"I can't pay it back if I borrow it!" Li Yi was furious. "Last time Li Sheng was beaten by that Li Zhiyuan. This old man was afraid of death. He banned Li Sheng at home and said that Li Shengxiu was not allowed to go out and play foolishly! Changsheng Restaurant made the Tongfu Restaurant rob a lot of business. He was so distressed, where would he support me?"

Borrowing money to repay the money is justified. Who would do anything that was borrowed for nothing?Li Zhengyuan slandered, but he was still very worried about Li Yi on the face: "Why don't we ask the village chiefs to come over to discuss and discuss with Shenjiacun?"

"No," Li Yi's eyes flashed, "this matter has to be solved fundamentally!"

What?Li Zhengyuan didn't know why.

Li Yi waved his hand: "Uncle Yuan, go back first!"

Li Zhengyuan's face was indifferent: "That's OK, let people call me if you have something."

Li Yi responded indifferently, sitting there thoughtfully.Seeing this, Li Zhengyuan had to withdraw.

After a while, Li Yi stood up and called the young man over, and said: "Go, find Lin Wanru over."

"Yes, sir!" Xiao Si took his orders.

"Be careful, don't let people see it." Li Yi warned.
