Accidentally Born in the ‘60s:
Li Muwu and Mingxi both held the pork on their backs tightly in their hands, and neither of them could open the door with their hands, but if they kicked the door with their feet, they would not have the courage.
Li Muwu called her mother twice. Seeing that no one would take care of her, she could only turn the pork to the side and slammed her shoulder hard, only to hear a loud bang, and Mrs. Li shivered again: "No way. Open the door? How is it like a bandit? It won't be fine..."
Have just finished speaking, Li Muwu has already come in with a big half of the wild boar on his back, and Mrs. Li has just said half of the words and immediately turned a corner: "Oh, why don't you say anything, so I can open the door for you!" He shouted at the top of his voice: "Mingnan and Mingbei, hurry up and help!"
As soon as the brothers returned to the house, they were about to take off their shoes and lay on the kang for a while when they heard Mrs. Li calling them from the yard. Mingbei covered her ears and said, "I didn't hear you!"
"Little bunny, you are fat!" Mrs. Li scolded, while instructing Li Muxi: "Hurry up and put down the meat. This is a total of two or three hundred pounds of meat, right?"
"Meat?" Li Mingnan heard the key words with good ears, and immediately tugged at Mingbei. The brothers didn't even take off their shoes, and even jumped up from the kang in the south. Looking out, I happened to see Li Muwu put pork on a broken cabinet in the yard, and then reached out to untie the four pig thighs on Li Mingxi's shoulders.
"Dad, let's help you!" Ming Nan and Ming Bei's voices were instantly sweet as if they had eaten honey. The two of them didn't even leave the door, but jumped out of the window directly on the kang. The two rushed out about ten meters in a few steps, ran to Li Mingxi's side to help take off the pig's leg, and moved closer to Mrs. Li, and threw her back attentively: "Damn, you said this evening. How do we eat meat?"
"Don't eat? I'll let you watch it!" Mrs. Li looked at the two grandchildren calmly, picked up a cigarette bag and hit each of them on the buttocks: "You bastard, you are so daring at your age. I still can't help you two."
"How can it be?" Li Mingbei smirked and rubbed Mrs. Li's arm: "I just jumped out of the window with a single order, I didn't even make it to the door for fear of delaying you. The old man's business."
Old Mrs. Li was teased and couldn't hold back, she laughed and scolded the two of them again: "Don't let me be sloppy here, Ming Nan, you set the cauldron in the back room on fire and burned two large Pot water for your dad and your brother to bathe. Mingbei..."
As soon as Mrs. Li called Ming Bei's name, Ming Bei immediately replied, "I know, I will go to my third uncle's house and ask them to come to dinner."
Lady Li couldn't help laughing: "Yo, aren't your legs tired now?"
"I was quite tired at first, but as soon as you gave me your order, my legs are no longer tired. If you don't believe me, I ran two laps and you took a look!" After running around the yard for two laps, he walked out of the gate.
It was the first time that Mingxi had carried such a heavy load for such a long journey. After he put down the pig's leg, he felt that his legs were soft. He thought that it would take a while to heat up the hot water. , stood directly in the middle of the yard, scooped out cold water from the tank and washed it all over again.
After the blood smell on his body was washed away, Mingxi entered the house wet. After returning to the Westinghouse, he took off his clothes and trousers and threw them into the basin, wiped them with a towel, and put them on again. It's clean, so I can comfortably lie down on the kang, ready to take a nap before dinner.
Although Li Muwu is old, he has been accustomed to such intense work for so many years. He only rested for a while on the small stool in the yard, and then found a hook to hang the wild boar on the wooden fence. After Mingnan had boiled the hot water, Li Muwu was not in a hurry to take a bath. Instead, he burned the pig hair again and scalded it with boiling water, and then cleaned it up with a few pots of hot water.
The skin of this wild boar is thick and fat. Cut off the skin first, then cut off the three- or four-finger-thick fatty meat, and keep the fat for boiling the pig. The ribs were cut off, and the back was cut into large pieces. By the time the Li Musen family arrived, most of the pork had already been divided.
"Oh, this wild boar is really big? You brought it back yourself?" Li Musen pushed open the door and came in, looking at the broken cabinet in the yard full of meat, and then seeing Li Muwu's **** body, and quickly Help in the past: "You go to wash, and I will do the rest."
Li Muwu sat on the small stool and took a few breaths: "Mingxi went up the mountain with me to fight. I wanted to fight a roe deer, but who wanted to go too far and meet a wild boar. I shot a shot. That wild boar didn't even shake, you don't know that it scared me at the time, if it wasn't for Mingxi behind me, I would have to climb the tree."
Mingnan boiled another pot of water, and Li Muwu sent him to fill himself a bowl of water and drank it upside down. Li Musen is also a frequent hunter, and he was also scared when he heard the scene: "Then why did you kill the wild boar? You just hit it in the eye?"
"How could it be such a coincidence, I was stupid at the time, it's good to be able to hit, where's the eye!" Li Muwu asked Mingnan to bring him a cigarette basket, rolled a cigarette and smoked it Two mouths: "This wild boar is too delicate, it shook me and rushed towards Mingxi. Our Mingxi is very old, and he is very courageous. When he saw the wild boar, he was not afraid at all. It's broken."
"Really!" Li Musen's face was full of admiration: "I can't see this child Mingxi, we will take him with us when we go hunting, and we will rely on him for two years of training when we can't climb the mountain. Let's hunt wild boars."
"Not bad. When we go out to hunt wild boars in winter, we will also take Mingxi with us. At that time, we will have guns and he will have hunting knives. How can the three of us get a wild boar back." Li Muwu said With a cigarette, his face is full of pride.
Mingxi was lying on the kang and was about to stare, when he heard the words of the third uncle in the yard, and he was immediately frightened. He climbed to the window sill and stuck his head out, crying: "Third uncle, don't listen. My dad was talking nonsense, that would be a coincidence."
"It so happens that you can pat the wild boar's head out of the hole, so if it's unfortunate that the pig's head can't be photographed into meat mud?" After Li Musen said that, he thought it was quite interesting, and he couldn't help laughing.
"It's not like that!" Li Muwu nodded proudly, and when he looked back he didn't forget to comfort Mingxi: "It's okay, next time Daddy will accompany you, I don't think you should bring a hunting knife. , the axe should be more handy, there is no problem with smashing a wild boar's head."
Mingxi shrunk his head back tiredly, silently thinking that he must study hard after entering high school, and that he will not go up the mountain to hunt wild boars.
After Li Musen finished dividing the meat, he was a little confused when he saw the pieces of wild boar: "Why do we keep so much meat until winter? Don't ruin it!"
The old Li family used to hunt wild boars in the winter. At that time, the meat would be frozen hard for a day after being thrown outside, and the meat would not be damaged for several months. A meal of sauerkraut is not to mention fragrant.
This time is summer, although the weather is not so hot, but so much pork does not last for a few days, and there is no sauerkraut and wild boar to go together. But for a family who hasn't bought pork for a year, it doesn't matter what it is stewed with, as long as there is a lot of meat.
The two large pots were hot, Osmanthus looked at the row of fat, generously poured more soybean oil into the two large pots, stewed fish in this pot, and put a large amount of soybean oil in the other pot. The pelvis and spine were stir-frying, sizzling with oily smoke.
Ming Rong and Ming Guang of Ming Nan, Ming Bei, and Li Musen's family surrounded the cabinet with the meat, but they didn't want to move, their eyes fixed on the large pieces of meat on it.
Mr. Li said cheerfully: "After dinner, your sister-in-law has finished cooking the lard, and the rest of the oil will be sprinkled with sugar for you to eat."
Mingnan and Mingbei were drooling as soon as they heard the harazi, Mingguang swallowed the saliva and tugged at Mrs. Li's sleeve: "Milk, can I stay at your house tonight?"
"Come on, your brother's house is located on the north-south kang, and the two of you can also live here." Mrs. Li took a puff of her cigarette and glanced at her little grandson again, and couldn't help teasing him: "I heard it Saying that you are thirsty after eating oily food, but you can come over in the morning, your mother may not agree with you living here."
Li Mingguang became anxious as soon as he heard it, and started to act like a spoiled brat as he pulled Mrs. Li's sleeve: "Tell me, mom, I'm afraid I'll have nothing left when I come tomorrow morning, Mingnan and Mingbei. They were appointed to steal food at night."
Li Mingrong squatted beside him and nodded in agreement, Li Musen glanced at him and couldn't help but want to say something to him: "You and your brother Mingxi are about the same age, you can see that everyone can go up the mountain to fight. If you have a wild boar, you will know how to squat there and eat oil, and don’t be idle in winter. When that time comes, go up the mountain with us, and let your brother Mingxi demonstrate to you what it means to kill a wild boar with a knife.”
"It shot the wild boar to death!" Li Muwu corrected: "The shot killed, the pig's head was broken, and the wild boar head was taken by Li Lao Er's daughter-in-law, I knew I should bring it back for you to see. Look, that wild boar's skull was photographed by your brother Mingxi."
Mingxi was lying on the kang, thinking of the scene of the wild boar rushing over with a look of despair, lying on the south kang in the east room and listening to the adults talking, Zhen Zhen also had a tangled face: can you stop slapping The matter of breaking the pig's head, as a lady, this is a bit of a let down.
Li Muwu calmed down after talking about the conversation. He estimated that he was about to eat, so he asked Wang Sufen to find a clean clothes, and went to the back room to wash himself from head to toe, and also luxuriously rubbed his head with soap. The smell of blood has been washed away, and the whole body is clean before changing into new clothes and going out to eat.
A pot of stewed fish, a pot of stewed vermicelli with cabbage and pork, and a pot of stewed potatoes with a backbone and sauce were placed on the table. Mingnan quickly went to get the bowls and chopsticks, while Mingbei picked the one with the most tender side of the fat fish head and cheeks. A few pieces of meat were placed in a small bowl and handed to Wang Sufen: "Give it to my sister."
Zhen Zhen smelled the fragrant fish and couldn't help showing two small white teeth just emerging to Mingbei: Interesting enough, next time you go fishing, I will help you.
