Returning to forty years ago after being reborn, what can one do?
Should one go with the flow of the times and ride the wave, or use the advantages of rebirth to avoid misfortune and seek goo...
"Well, Dr. Qiao absolutely refused to come and give the dog the shot." Sheng Xiping smiled rather awkwardly.
He was too anxious and overlooked this point.
"However, Dr. Qiao prescribed some medicine, some for internal use and some for external application. If I don't get injections, I'll have to take medicine and let it heal slowly."
Sheng Liancheng nodded, said nothing, and continued to deal with the black bear.
Sheng Xiping pondered for a moment, then stepped forward and sliced off a few thin pieces of meat with a knife. He then coated the meat with the medicinal powder and put it to the Black General's mouth.
"Be good and take your medicine. Taking medicine will help you get better faster."
General Hei glanced at Sheng Xiping, then smelled the meat roll in Sheng Xiping's hand. After thinking for a long time, he finally opened his mouth and ate the seasoned meat.
Dogs are wise and intelligent; most can understand what their owners say. Black General also knew that its owner would not harm it.
Even though the meat was coated with medicine and tasted terrible, the dog still obediently ate it.
Sheng Xiping was overjoyed when he saw this, and hurriedly cut off some more meat to feed General Hei.
As long as the dog can still eat meat, the injury isn't serious and will heal gradually. The real problem is if it's injured and refuses to eat anything; that would be disastrous.
After feeding General Hei, Sheng Xiping took the knife from his father and continued to deal with Hei Xiazi.
"Mom, render some oil from this fatty meat. Keep one bear leg to take to Doctor Qiao later. He prescribed medicine for it and didn't charge you."
"As for the remaining lean meat, you can decide what to do with it. Make sure General Black is well-fed these next few days."
After cleaning the black bear, which weighed about 300 pounds, only about 140 to 150 pounds of meat remained. The two little tiger cubs at home needed extra meat every day, and the injured black bear needed special treatment. In addition, after giving some away, there wasn't much left in the end.
"Okay, don't worry, I'll take care of it." Zhang Shuzhen was cooking when she heard her son's words and responded.
At noon, Sheng Yunfang and the others returned home. When they saw the meat in the large basin in the outer room, they knew that Sheng Xiping had killed the bear.
"Brother, does that mean we can't let black bears get into our fields anymore?" Sheng Xitai asked, seemingly unsure of what he meant.
"Yes, there won't be any more black bears in that place for at least three to five years, or even ten or eight years."
There were many bloodstains left on the edge of that field. Black bears have a keen sense of smell. When they smell the blood of their own kind, they know that a bear is injured or dead there, so they will stay far away.
That's why Sheng Xiping said that there wouldn't be any more black bears there for at least three to five years.
"Oh, I see." Sheng Xitai nodded, his tone carrying an indescribable undertone.
Sheng Xiping cleaned up the black bear, and then the family ate lunch first. After lunch, Sheng Xiping gave Dr. Qiao a black bear's thigh.
In the afternoon, Zhang Shuzhen cut the fatty meat into chunks, poured it into a pot, added half a ladle of water, and heated it to render the fat.
Once the water in the pot has evaporated and there's not much fire left in the stove, it's slowly being baked over a low flame.
The fatty meat in the pot sizzled, and clear, transparent oil seeped out from the meat and gathered at the bottom of the pot.
Zhang Shuzhen used a spoon to push the fatty meat to the side of the pot, revealing a small indentation in the middle, and then used the spoon to scoop out the oil one spoonful at a time.
Later, the fat in the pork belly was rendered out, and the originally large pieces of fat became small, dry pieces, browned and fragrant.
"Milk, what's delicious? It smells good."
Sheng Xinhua and Sheng Xinyu, who were playing with the tiger cubs in the west room, smelled the aroma from the outer room and, forgetting their playtime, ran out excitedly, raising their little faces to ask.
"It's oily. Wait a bit, let it simmer a little longer. Eating it like this is too oily and can cause stomach upset."
Zhang Shuzhen couldn't help but laugh as she looked at the two little gluttons.
While pressing down on the dried and yellowed oil stains with a spatula to make all the oil seep out, I scooped out all the oil from the bottom of the pot and put the oil stains into a small bowl.
