The old Qin family's eyes widened, only to see a lot of meat in the two large-capacity baskets on the ground!
They are all wild game in the mountains, not wild boars. On the top are two rabbits, one gray and one white. Only the gray one was still breathing, and the injured one backed away, still struggling at the moment.
Under the two rabbits, there was something vaguely looking at, and it was pressed down, and the lights were not bright at night, so it was difficult to see clearly.
In the other basket, this one is an extra-large one made by old man Qin. Usually, it is used to hold large things. son.
The people of the old Qin family were stunned. Did San'er go to the mountains to loot
Qin Yuli was proud of his family's reaction, but he didn't say anything, he hugged his chest and watched, went to the black face that closed the courtyard door and ran back, squeezed in to take a look, and said, "Where did the third uncle come from?" So much meat
Let his milk pat his head, "Where did you learn foul language at a young age?"
Hei Mian grunted and said that he learned from the third uncle.
Yinyin heard it, and the milky voice was corrected: "Second brother is bad, Dad doesn't speak rude words."
Black-faced:"… "
Qin Yuli touched it while it was dark, and he didn't hold out much hope in his heart. It was better inside the mountain than outside. Those little things would rather stay in the mountain looking for food than wander out.
I just want to try my luck and go over on a whim to see if the trap set yesterday has any effect.
As a result, I look at it, my good fellow, let's not talk about the trap set for catching rabbits, and kneel down with two fat rabbits, and in the trap dug by the three brothers on a whim, there is actually a silly spore and a smooth pheasant. !
Qin Yuli has never seen so much meat at one time in his life. In the past, no matter how capable he was, he sneaked into the mountains to catch a game, but it was such a rough trap that didn't even put a bait in it, and he might not be able to catch it ten times. one time. .
This stupid rabbit is the best to catch. Rabbits have a deadly habit. They are used to walking back and forth. Just find out the route of the stupid rabbits and set a trap. The eyes of rabbits are long on both sides. Look. I don't know what's in front of me. Once I catch a shot, I can hit five or six times out of ten. If I'm lucky enough to be well prepared, I can catch a nest.
This time, I didn't make too many rabbits, just two, but they were fat and looked like they had about four or five pounds. This meat is the most tender. Uncomfortable.
As an expert in this field, Qin Yuli has a lot of drama in his heart. Seeing that everyone in the old Qin family was watching, he picked a chair and sat down. Old Qin stared, that was his exclusive position as the patriarch!
This bastard!
The old man Qin was about to spray him, but Chen Qiuhua stopped him. She only saw the two baskets of meat. During the day, her granddaughter was still saying that she wanted to eat meat. She was so worried that she didn't know what to do. She got so much meat, which surprised and delighted her. She secretly thought that her granddaughter would be blessed, and said that there is meat to eat.
At this moment, the old lady thinks so based on the filter of the good granddaughter, but she doesn't take it to heart, that is, she likes to deduct the head of her favorite granddaughter for every good thing. ? Isn't it a matter of course for a father to beat and eat meat for his daughter
It was only after what happened in succession that Chen Qiuhua came back to his senses and was stunned.
Chen Qiuhua said: "San'er, tell me quickly, where did you get so much meat?"
Except for the eldest eldest, none of the old Qin family was conscious, and they never thought of distributing the meat to the public so that everyone could eat it together.
The thing was called by his old Qin family based on his ability, why should he give it to others
Now that I don't think about it, I stand in a row and ask questions around Qin Yuli.
It has been a long time, and no one has seen eating so much meat at one time. Of course, the wild boar is not counted. The wild boar is still shared by the whole team, which is boring.
Qin Yuli raised Erlang's legs and was in a good mood. He picked up the cheap girl who was walking over with her short legs and put it on her lap, saying, "Isn't the food not good this year? I want to try my luck in the mountains and see if I can get something back to make everyone happy."
Chen Qiuhua pondered why the words were so similar to what the little granddaughter said? The little granddaughter has a sincere heart, saying that the uncle, grandmother, aunt and uncle are unhappy if they don't eat meat, and she doesn't eat meat, so she is a little unhappy.
When the three-year-old granddaughter said this in a milky voice, Chen Qiuhua felt like she was soaked in sugar water. It was soft and sweet.
But when it comes to being a father, the same statement, why does his mother sound so hypocritical
The mother deserves to be the one who knows her son best. She glanced at her son suspiciously, wondering if her son overheard her granddaughter talking to her, and learned this.
Chen Qiuhua was too embarrassed to expose it, she had to save face for her granddaughter's father.
I don't know about the others, I don't know that the dumplings still said this. They felt relieved when they heard it. Even if Zhao Yueya and Li Dilai, who are sisters-in-law, are usually a little careful, they will inevitably have red eyes at this moment, saying that you are thoughtful, third brother, Or you are considerate, neither of your brothers can compare to you!
The foolish man Qin Guodong was not angry when he heard it, he smiled naively, "Little brother, second brother usually blames you wrongly, second brother has a bad heart and is not worthy of eating this meat."
He boasted again: "It's still your ability, brother, why can't I catch the prey?"
The twin sons murmured, "Dad, it's better for you to farm honestly, but your third uncle's skills are not comparable." Even your brain is not comparable.
Qin Guodong: "..."
That night, Qin Guoshu worked overtime at the commune office until late, and the communal grain was taken away from the commune. He and a few small cadres stayed for a little while, pondering how to overcome this difficulty. I don’t have enough stock yet, so I’m all counting on the canteen to eat. What should I do if there is no food in the canteen
This is an unsolvable problem.
According to the statistics and calculations of a few literate cadres, if you really want to survive like this, the cafeteria will only be able to cook one meal a day from tomorrow, and it has to be thin.
Which line
In these days, no matter what age you are, men, women and children, as long as you can't walk, you have to work in the fields. With all the staff working, can you survive without food in your stomach
In the coming spring, when planting and farming are busy, there must be at least one meal a day for the members to support, otherwise they will die of exhaustion in the fields.
When Qin Guoshu came home in the dark in the middle of the night, he was surprised to find that he was still lighting an oil lamp
Farmers live their lives carefully, saving as much as they can. Generally, they don’t turn on the lights at night. They work by the moonlight in the dark, do laundry, etc. After they are done, they go back to their houses to sleep.
It's almost midnight, and the lights are still on
Walking into the courtyard, the footsteps made a little noise, and there were two vigilant voices from the two nephews, asking who
"White noodles and black noodles, where are your parents and grandparents? What are you doing in the house?"
The twins were assigned tasks and squatted at the gate of the yard to guard, so that no one would find out that their family had stolen meat and came back.
When it comes to eating meat, everyone from adults to children is active. The twins thought that the delicious meat was about to drool, so they immediately took over this honorable task, and conscientiously watched the door for the old Qin family.
Nian also said that no matter who passed by, whoever wanted to miss their house in the middle of the night, they had to make a noise. Nian also emphasized that, especially when their uncle came back, he had to say something!
The white-faced clawed the door and dragged the uncle to prevent him from entering. The black-faced clever ghost rushed in and shouted, "Uncle is back, Uncle is back!"
Qin Guoshu looked at his eldest nephew who was holding his leg, and then listened to the sound coming from the room, the corners of his mouth twitched, he had never been greeted by his nephews like this in his life, he hugged and shouted, this is a welcome He came home
Qin Guoshu said: "In the middle of the night, keep your voice down and stop disturbing the neighbors." He was still a little relieved. For the sake of the life and death of the team members, he worked overtime until the middle of the night to find a way, and he was so worried that his hair was bald and bald. Son, I didn't expect his family to support him so much. His nine-year-old nephew knew that he was squatting at the door waiting for him to come back from get off work, and he cheered with joy when he came back.
Qin Guoshu was still laughing, rubbing the head of his eldest nephew, Bai Mian, who he wouldn't let go, and said that when you grow up, Bai Mian, you will be considerate of the eldest uncle, and the uncle will go to the commune for a meeting and bring you two pieces of candy to eat.
Bai Mian: "..." Why do you feel a sense of guilt in your heart
Bai Mian almost let the uncle into the house, and the house was busy as soon as the sound was heard.
Fortunately, Qin Guoshu came back late. If he came back sooner, even if Bai Mian stopped him for a while, he would be able to break through the scene of the family sharing the spoils (meat) on the spot.
There were about three hours between when the meat came back and Qin Guoshu went home, which was enough time for the old Qin family to clean up the meat.
Although the weather has been a bit cooler these two days, it is still far from the temperature in winter. Men in good health can still go to work in undershirts.
The big girls also wear a single shirt with long sleeves.
I can't keep the meat in this weather, and I'm afraid it will break tomorrow. It's not easy to handle the meat in the daytime. The walls of the yard are short, so people can easily see it.
So Chen Qiuhua made a decision and took advantage of the eldest son to deal with it.
A few adults, Chen Qiuhua and his wife, the eldest daughter-in-law and the second daughter-in-law, and Comrade Qin Guodong were busy. Without a big iron pot, they used a clay pot to boil hot water, peeled and washed them, and took Chen Qiuhua to secretly hide in the pit dug under the bed. The kitchen knife in it is cut into pieces, or cut into strips.
As for Comrade Qin Yuli, the hero who brought the meat back? He doesn't have to work, so he just wants to bring a baby. Chen Qiuhua agrees with a big wave of his hand. Her granddaughter is only three years old, so she has to bring her.
So Qin Yuli sat there holding his daughter and watched them work, with a leisurely attitude. If it wasn't for the death-free gold medal (good girl) in his arms, Chen Qiuhua and Qin Laohan would have wanted to take the sole of their shoes and photographed them.
Even if you don't want to work, it's fine, hide in your own room, just sit and watch other people humming and humming like watching a big drama
Several people are good at work. Even if the meat is more than three hours, it will be cleaned up. The reason why the two children will squat in the courtyard and watch the wind is because cleaning is one thing, how to store it and how to eat it has to be pondered.
Afraid that the eldest son would run into him when it was getting late, Chen Qiuhua ordered the second son and his wife to clean up the bloodstains and hairs in the yard swiftly, and put those miscellaneous things in bags and bury them in the backyard.
I sprinkled lime powder on the ground in the yard to remove the smell, and I felt that the destruction of the corpse was almost done, so I moved the processed meat back to the house.
They discussed that the meat should not be put in, and the coarse salt at home is not enough. Do they have to secretly go to the town tomorrow to buy some and come back to bacon
"The meat of the rabbit is so tender that you can eat it right away. There is also the pheasant. The pheasant stew is very good. It will be stewed in a clay pot at night, and you can drink it when you wake up in the morning."
"Let's pickle the roe deer meat. There is not much salt in the house. First, apply a thin layer and hang it in the room of the old man and I. You can also hang a few skewers in the utility room. The meat is kept and cut into pieces every three to five times. When the film comes out, I will replenish you with oil and water."
"Have you heard it, it's not every day that you have such luck. You can't eat this meat in one go, keep it and eat it slowly. Today, the commune has taken away most of the food, and maybe one day our cafeteria will be cut off. Now, you all cheer up, maybe this meat will be the life-saving meat at that time!"
Qin Yuli opened his mouth, wanting to say that the meat was brought back by him, and wanted to give it to his cub. He ate half a bowl of this cub the day before yesterday, and he felt no wonder, he didn't take advantage of a three-year-old cub, this meat I just called to pay her back!
What Qin Yuli thought at the beginning was that if I was so capable, I would have to pay back the big ticket no matter what, he is a father!
But listening to the old lady's analysis, his heart sank and he didn't speak any more.
In the face of fate, nothing is worth mentioning.
They were still rubbing salt on the meat, and while they were talking, there was movement in the courtyard, and the black face ran hummingly, "Milk, uncle is back!"
The corners of Chen Qiuhua's mouth twitched, and her face suddenly fell, this unlucky son!
It happened that they were almost finished, so the two daughters-in-law made their hands and feet quicker, picked them up and hung them in the house, and also took a few wooden tubs for meat and hid them in the house.
The windows had been opened a long time ago, and the meat had no taste if it was not boiled.
As for the chicken that was always thrown into a clay pot, water was added in the kitchen, and a few pieces of old ginger were added. This thing wards off the cold and removes the fishy smell. I don’t have any big ingredients at home, so this is just right.
Chen Qiuhua has a good plan, the chicken is cooked, can it be let out? This is called cooked rice with raw rice. No matter how hard you are, eldest son, you can't rob the old parents of the meat, and take it out and share it with others, right
This pheasant is lean and only two kilograms in total, who else can it be distributed to
Chicken and rabbit meat are small, so let the eldest son know that he is fine, and at most he can say a few words.
As for the roe deer meat, when it's ready to eat, it's already marinated. What else can Qin Guoshu do
The abacus of the old Qin family made a lot of noise. As Qin Guoshu, who was hiding in his bones, he felt good about himself. Both nephews made him feel his head and praised a few words. He stepped into the house and was surprised that the whole family did not sleep. Well, sitting in the main room and seeing him come in, they all looked up.
Qin Guoshu always felt that there was something strange in those eyes? As if to hate? He threw this feeling out of his head, smiled and asked, "You haven't slept yet?"
"Father and mother, go to bed early, it's your son's unfilial piety, let you wait until so late."
Chen Qiuhua grimaced, pulled up the old man and turned back to the house, leaving the eldest son with the back of his head.
Qin Guoshu: "..."
Qin Guoshu felt that his parents still loved him. It was rare for him to work overtime so late. In the past two days, the food matter was in a dreadful state. Not only was he worried, but every day, the members of the commune went to him to cry and complained that he was upset. In his eyes, he waited for most of the night when he didn't come back.
When he returned to the house, Qin Guoshu was still sighing, "Our parents are a little bit biased, but they still love my son, or how about my own son?"
Zhao Yueya, who was pregnant, rolled her eyes with her husband behind her back, thinking that it would be good to be a fool.
Why did she lame looking for such a man in the first place? It's right to be a captain at a young age, but unfortunately there is a hole in the brain.
A good night's dream.
The people of the old Qin family were busy with their work early in the morning.
Qin Guodong listened to the old lady's words, and before dawn, he made a disguise with the bag of waste collected from the meat, and sneaked to the mountain to dig a pit and bury it.
On the way back, I met an old man who got up early and said that Qin Er, you got up so early
Qin Guodong had a simple smile on his face, "Uncle Wang, you are also early. We only get up early for those who have a stutter. My mother said that the early bird catches the worm."
This honest person said it without any regrets, he really felt that way, didn't he just get up early to destroy the corpse and destroy the certificate so that he could eat meat
The old man sighed, "You're still diligent, your brother Gouzi was hit hard by the food issue, and he's still sleeping soundly right now. It's better to die from sleep than to die from starvation."
The two exchanged a few words, and the old man looked enviously at the back of Qin Guodong leaving, that sturdy back is really a good boy!
In the past, I thought that Qin Lao Er was dull and honest, and he was proud of his son's strength. Now the old man thinks that it is better to be an honest farmer. Smart people tend to think more, are easily influenced by the outside world, and are easily attacked. Genxian, he is cheerful and full of energy every day, and it is better to live the present day than to frown.
Qin Guoshu was blinded in the morning, and all the family members gathered around the table with a small broken bowl, and watched the old lady divide the soup and meat to eat.
I didn't even have breakfast before, but now I have chicken soup to drink and chicken to eat! Can't even think about it!
The children were dying of joy, chatting with small bowls held high, and drinking the chicken soup that was stewed with milk and meat until golden brown.
Before going to bed, Chen Qiuhua purposely used a few pieces of cloth to tightly wrap the gaps in the lid of the clay pot. Although the chicken soup was being stewed, the smell didn't escape at all. Because it didn't escape, as soon as it was opened, the chicken soup was savage. The fresh scent permeated the whole house.
The two daughters-in-law had closed the doors and windows a long time ago to ensure that the smell would not get out. In addition, the old Qin family lived in the head of the village and was far away from other people's homes, so the smell could not spread that far.
Qin Guoshu couldn't move his legs, opened his mouth and asked where did this come from
Chen Qiuhua rolled his eyes and asked his wife to explain it to him.
After he finished speaking, he said, "If you don't want to eat, then go to work. Don't worry about anything else. If you want to report and expose your mother, it's up to you. Anyway, we have worked hard all our lives and haven't eaten a few bites of meat. It's enough to drink some chicken soup before being caught."
Even if this matter is over, what can Qin Guoshu do? Just like Chen Qiuhua said, he can't embarrass his old parents for two catties of meat.
Hearing Chen Qiuhua say that, he felt ashamed.
Can't let the old parents eat meat, and don't want other brothers to honor their parents
Also because he didn't have a few pounds of meat, Qin Guoshu didn't say a word, and said with red eyes that his father and mother, son is not such a person.
Chen Qiuhua was quite satisfied with his performance, gave him a bowl and told him to eat too.
"Dad, it's not easy for you. You are in charge of the members' eating, drinking, and lhasa. You are only in your thirties, and you are about to become an old man. Come and make up for it."
Qin Guoshu was suddenly excited, his mother cares about him so much! I stayed up all night waiting for him last night, gave him chicken soup today, and said such sensational words! It's his mother!
Zhao Yueya didn't look, she touched her belly, and made a wish to God that her son would not be born like his father.
Zhao Yueya looked at Xiaokou Xiaokou and drank the soup, and she squinted her eyes with contentment. She was a pretty and soft cheap niece, and said that although she was a little unpopular, in addition to her gender, her son's appearance and temperament could follow this doll. Good-looking, sensible and smart, is the best.
After eating a meal of chicken soup, the people of the old Qin family gargled and wiped their mouths, full of energy and went to work in the fields.
After the autumn harvest is over, the work in the fields is nothing more than turning over the soil, weeding, weeding, and catching insects. It is enough not to let the land be left uncultivated. When there is a fertile land for planting next spring, they will have a bumper harvest and a full meal!
The other members were all powerless. There was no food in the team, so they had no motivation to work.
The old Qin family's painting style is different today.
They were red-faced, carrying hoes, and they were more energetic than anyone else!
In the morning, the uncle who met Qin Guodong said to the people next to him: "This old Qin family has a good ideology. The whole family is diligent and in good spirits. We have to study like others. Day by day, we can still rely on the ground. Make us starve?"
"It's just right to live a good life, not to that point."
Uncle Wang is a sensible person, and he is also the uncle who told the members of the story of fleeing from the famine. He has experienced too much despair in his life, and he has seen it lightly. He feels that the spirit of the old Qin family is very good. Now, you really have to have such a mentality to get through it, or else your fighting spirit will be gone first, how can you steal your life from the hands of God
Qin Guoshu was also in a good mood this morning. After being encouraged by his mother, he was full of fighting spirit.
He thought that he couldn't give up like this. He had to go to the commune for a run, and stop by the county town to see what was going on in the county town.
