Chapter 48: First update: pork fragrance

Pork offal usually refers to pig's internal organs, including pig's large intestine, pig's liver, pig's heart, etc.

Oh, and a pig's tail is also included as a gift.

Whether pig offal is delicious depends on whether it can be washed clean and whether people are willing to add any feed to it. Wild boars, in particular, have a stronger fishy smell than domestic pigs and are more difficult to handle.

The first point can be seen from the sweat on Han Jing and Xu Fei's foreheads as they work hard. As for the second point, although Ye Yu is reluctant to use less and less seasoning, he doesn't want to waste food even more.

Add in Hua Feifei's amazing cooking skills, and it must be right.

The fried pig's tail is crispy and dry, the stir-fried pork offal is juicy and oily, the boiled pork blood is tender and refreshing, and add some chili peppers from Xiangjiang River. It goes very, very well with rice and you can finish a whole pot in one go.

The main dish was served on the table and placed in the center.

At the command from chef Hua Feifei, the four of them were busy picking up vegetables and eating steamed buns, being unusually quiet.

No, there were also the sounds of sparrows chirping around the table, apparently attracted by the spicy and fresh aroma, but they could only grab one-third of a dried chili at most.

Fortunately, the sparrow does not know that it is so pitiful, and it prefers to smell rather than eat. Yes, it is so perverted that it likes to satisfy its inexplicable sense of smell.

"grumble!"

fragrant!

Hua Feifei, Han Jing, and Xu Fei touched their round bellies and watched Ye Yu eat up all the leftovers. They became even more envious of her good appetite.

That evening, the aroma of meat wafted from every household in Wangjiagou.

The worst hit ones are those located in the educated youth camps.

The food provided by the educated youth camp has made it the most envied and fascinating place for the people in Wangjiagou.

If Ye Yu had not rebuked all the matchmakers on his first day at work and said "a wise man does not fall in love", I'm afraid that a matchmaker in the village would have come to the house in person, or some young men and women would have come to the house on their own initiative.

Even the ignorant little kids in the village clamored to be the children of the educated youth.

Their parents grabbed them and made them a meal of bamboo shoots and fried meat: "You don't even consider whether they want it or not!"

The educated youths were sweating profusely:

...Is this the point?

Also, we need to be cautious in correcting this. It's not that the educated youth always have sex, but that the educated youth always have sex. There is still a gap between the educated youth.

After eating and drinking, it's time to wash the dishes and pots.

Since the meat was hunted by Ye Yu and Hua Feifei made great contributions by cooking, these debris fell on the heads of the two brothers Han Jing and Xu Fei. No, it was Xu Fei who lost the game of rock-paper-scissors.

The two brothers demonstrated on the spot what internal strife and quarreling were.

The winner, Han Jing, was so proud of himself that he took out a low stool and sat on the side, commanding and shouting: "Today there is too much oil, hot water is used to remove the oil. Comrade Xu Fei, you'd better heat hot water to wash it, please wash it more thoroughly."

Hearing this, veins popped up on Xu Fei's forehead and he threw water towards Han Jing. Han Jing was not willing to be outdone. Fortunately, both of them knew that it was winter and they knew how to act in moderation.

"Childish." Hua Feifei shook her head and sighed. Seeing Ye Yu looking at her, she moved her stool away from Han Jing and the others, to show that she was absolutely not in the same country as them.

After eating the pig's offal and blood, there is still pork meat the next day.

Wild boar meat is fishier than domestic pig meat, so it naturally needs to be well prepared in advance, with a lot of ingredients, and it has a woodier texture. Hua Feifei chose to braise it in a pot, which is full of burnt aroma, without any smell of mutton, and is very chewy.

Unlike every household that would stew a few pounds of pork for many meals, the pork at the educated youth's site was eaten up in two meals, at noon and at night. Anyone who saw this would probably say that these educated youth did not know how to live.

There was nothing they could do. With Ye Yu, a foodie, around, Hua Feifei and Han Jing didn't think there was anything wrong with this.

After eating pork that night, Han Jingcai smacked his lips and regretted with Xu Fei that there would be no pork to eat the next day. Xu Fei then threw a pillow on him.

The next day, it was Han Jing's turn to get up early and cook.

As soon as I entered the kitchen, I screamed:

"Oh my god! Oh my god! Oh my god!"

He cursed three times in a row, which shows how shocked he was.

But in the kitchen, there were two more wild boars weighing several hundred pounds, exactly the same as the ones shared in the village the day before. The wounds on their bodies were neatly repaired, and two large wooden basins were used to collect the pigs' blood.

Wild boar!

Two wild boars!

Two adult wild boars weighing several hundred kilograms!

Han Jing thought he must not have woken up yet and was dreaming. He rubbed his eyes, and rubbed them again. The wild boar was still there. He looked up and around. He was not in the wrong place. It was still the kitchen of the educated youth center.

"Ah, ah, ah!" Han Jing howled like a wolf three times, turned around and ran, rushed into the east room, grabbed Xu Fei who was still sleeping, and shook him violently.

"???"

"You are sick!"

Xu Fei, who was awakened, slapped him back.

Han Jing: "..."

"Wild boar!"

"What pig?"

Xu Fei didn't quite understand.

Han Jing explained again:

"Wild boars. There are wild boars in the kitchen. Two!"

Maybe because he was woken up from his sleep, Xu Fei still didn't quite understand what the two wild boars meant. He was confused for a long time before he reacted.

Two wild boars?

My brain crashed instantly.

"Wild boar?"

"right."

"Two?"

"right."

Xu Fei also exclaimed "Fuck!", got up immediately, put on a big cotton-padded jacket, and rushed out of the room with Han Jing. The biting cold wind outside made him shiver.

But I can't take care of the cold for now.

He came to the kitchen and saw two wild boars weighing hundreds of pounds with his own eyes. He exclaimed in amazement several times.

This time, Han Jing finally settled down and was sure that he was not dreaming.

But Xu Feipian was dazed, his feet felt like they were stepping on cotton, and he felt dizzy. Could he not have woken up yet?

Then, the two of them went to wake Hua Feifei up. Of course, they were not stupid enough to break into the girls' room. They just knocked and shouted at the door.

The impatient Han Jing jumped twice.

Hua Feifei was even grimmer than Xu Fei when she woke up, and came out of the house with a sour face.

Then he was stunned and his sleepiness disappeared instantly: "Wild wild wild wild boar, where did this wild boar come from?"

Although they asked this question, everyone knew where these two came from. It must be related to the last one. Apart from her, no one could have imagined that someone else would throw wild boars into their kitchen.

But Ye Yu was still sleeping.

Due to Ye Yu's "authority", several people were struggling over whether to call people first, or cook first and then call people. If they chose the former, would they be punched out like this wild boar?

I know I won’t, but I can use my brain to fill in the blanks!

In fact, they didn't need to worry about it. Ye Yu had woken up early. She was not deaf. How could she sleep early when the three of them were yelling in the yard like mental patients?

But the warm quilt was so comfortable, as if it had arms that imprisoned her. She rolled in the quilt for more than ten or twenty minutes before she climbed out.

He draped the towel over his shoulders, put the mouthwash cup and clam oil in the wooden basin, and walked out with them.

Hua Feifei and Xu Fei had already given up sleepiness and were squatting in the yard, washing up.

As soon as he saw her, he immediately asked, "Ye Yu, those two wild boars in the kitchen were not caught by you in the middle of the night, were they?"

"Yes," Ye Yu nodded and replied, "It was caught in the same trap as the one the day before yesterday. In order to avoid other people, it was dragged back last night."

!!!

Even though I had prepared myself mentally, I was still shocked to hear the answer in person.

Xu Fei also knew what Ye Yu meant by avoiding the question, that is, she had no intention of sharing the wild boar with the whole team. This was understandable. In his opinion, being able to share the meat of a pig was already very generous, and not everyone could do it.

Besides, ordinary people can’t hunt wild boars.

There was just one question, and Xu Fei finally asked: "Didn't the captain say that Nanshan is very dangerous? There are jackals, tigers, leopards, blind bears, pythons, five-step snakes, and mountain winds. A bite from these creatures can be fatal."

Ye Yu answered the question irrelevantly: "By the way, in addition to exchanging supplies, you can also help process the pork, such as making jerky, salted meat, and bacon, and you will be paid. The same goes for cooking. The pork offal tasted good last time."

The topic change was very abrupt. Hua Feifei and Han Jing did realize that Ye Yu was trying to change the conflict, but the conditions she proposed were really tempting.

This is meat, meat, meat!

"Can!"

They both said in unison.

Hua Feifei subconsciously touched her baby fat which had not yet faded. She felt that she had gained weight since going to the countryside, all thanks to the guidance of her amazing teammate.

Meeting Xu Fei's gaze, Han Jing added: "But Ye Yu, you should avoid going to the South Mountain. The villagers say that the other side of the mountain is really dangerous."

“Yes, yes, yes.”

"Don't worry, nothing will happen. I value my life very much. Maybe even more than you do." This was the only way Ye Yu could answer.

Xu Fei, Han Jing, and Hua Feifei didn't know how killing a wild boar in the dead of night was a way to save one's life, but they also knew that Ye Yu was a person with big ideas and would not change her decision easily, so they could only believe that she had her own plan in mind.

Gulu Gulu——

The sweet potato flesh in the pot is bubbling.

Breakfast was lighter than last night. Except for Ye Yu, who had meat as his staple food, everyone else was a vegetarian.

Ye Yu eats meat not because she has to, but mainly because the food she exchanges in the village is limited. To her, food and vegetables are more difficult to come by than meat. Eating more meat can reduce the consumption of sweet potatoes, corn, potatoes, etc.

This excuse is really "insane".

After breakfast, the four of them got busy.

It was snowing today so they didn't have to go to work and it wasn't their turn to be on duty, so they just happened to have plenty of time to deal with the wild boars.

Speaking of smoked and bacon, one person must be mentioned, and that is Yang Xiuxiu, an educated youth from the Red Flag Brigade.

The exchanges between the brigades were not as frequent as they had imagined. They had not left the village for more than ten days, so it was time to keep the appointment.

Hua Feifei then recalled that when she parted with Yang Xiuxiu and the others, the last words they spoke seemed to mention pork. She was afraid that at that time, Ye Yu had already been thinking about the wild boars in the mountains.

Ye Yu admitted it readily.

In addition to keeping the appointment, Xu Fei and his friends also wanted to go to the town post office to see if there was any reply from the magazine, and to resend the letters they had written in the past few days.

Ye Yu had run out of snacks and candies, and there were not many basic seasonings such as soybean oil and salt left, so she needed to go out and buy some more.

So after the snow stopped, the four of them went to ask the captain for a day off.

This time it was not as lively as last time. Some of us woke up more than an hour late in the morning and it was almost lunchtime when we arrived in town. We went to the state-owned hotel to have a meal before going to the post office.
