Chapter 335: There is meat and a partner!
Fu Hansheng stopped the car, Jiang Wanwan opened the door and got out, Jiang Yourou ran to Jiang Wanwan and bent down to rub her legs.
There were five or six wolves following behind it. One of them was relatively small. It looked at Jiang Wanwan with its wolf eyes and stretched its neck to sniff, as if trying to remember Jiang Wanwan's scent.
Jiang Wanwan touched Jiang Yourou all over his head.
I found that its head and hooves were injured. "How did you get injured? Did you go to a fight?"
After just a few days of not seeing it, it actually formed a small group.
Jiang Yourou sobbed aggrievedly: No, I didn’t.
Shen Xingjiang sat in the car, looking at the wolves behind him: "The wolf behind it is a female wolf."
Jiang Wanwan was a little slow to react: "Is Jiang Yourou dating someone?"
Shen Xingjiang: “Yeah.”
"The wounds on its body should be caused by fighting for a mate or a territory."
The delicate female wolf behind walked up tentatively and lay down at Jiang Wanwan's feet.
Jiang Wanwan's heart was filled with love.
He slapped Jiang Youroulang on the head and said, "Look how quiet she is. Nothing like you."
The wolves behind saw Jiang Wanwan punch their leader and they all took three steps back as if they had seen some ferocious beast.
The female wolf understood that Jiang Wanwan was praising her, so she rubbed her head against Jiang Wanwan's feet in a very subtle manner and rested her head on the tops of her feet.
It was quite cold outside. Jiang Wanwan rubbed their heads. Their fur was a little prickly. "Take your little brother back to our house and wait. I'll buy you some meat later."
Catching wild game smells delicious, and it smells even better when someone cooks the meat for you!
Jiang Yourou led the wolves back first, and his movements were not slow at all.
There is frozen meat in the jar at home. We need to eat it as spring is coming soon. I will cook some for them after it thaws and make some raw meat slices to make sure they are full.
When the car drove back to the military area, they met some acquaintances. Everyone asked about Beijing's quality and whether it was interesting. Jiang Wanwan would reply with a few words. Seeing that they were tired from the journey, everyone didn't say much and told them to go back and rest.
Fu Hansheng sent them back to return the car.
Jiang Wanwan wasn't too tired: "Come here to eat later."
Fu Hansheng waved his hand: "That's exactly what I meant."
He was not in a hurry to take the money, wasn't it just to find an opportunity to come back and get a free meal?
After a while on the road, I got home at around eight o'clock.
Grandpa Zhang was sitting on the small plank bed in the living room. Seeing that he was dirty, Shen Xingjiang took some toiletries and took him to the dormitory outside to take a shower. He then used scissors to cut his hair and made him some clean clothes to wear.
After taking a shower and changing into clean clothes and soft cotton shoes, Zhang Hezong did not feel scared even though he was in a strange place.
When they came back, Jiang Wanwan had already cooked most of the meat.
There were three men who would be having dinner later, so she took out two pig's trotters, a row of ribs, half a chicken, and several large pieces of pork.
After staying on the train for a few days, Jiang Wanwan felt unwell, so she simply washed herself and planned to go to the public bathhouse in the county town to take a good bath.
The tiger stove used in the public bathhouse.
The fuel is placed outside the wall. There are two small windows on the wall through which you can see what's going on inside the stove, like tiger eyes. The furnace for boiling water is located right in front, like a tiger's mouth. There is a tall chimney at the end of the stove, like a tiger's tail, so it's called a tiger stove.
Nowadays, there are not many female comrades going to public baths to take a bath. Female comrades are shy and dare not take off their clothes to take a bath. Sometimes the streets have to mobilize female comrades to take a bath, and then others will go.
In the 1990s, bathhouses were even advertised in newspapers.
The steam pot replaced the dragon pot, and it was given the name of a Western bathtub. It was equipped with a Western-style official room, a mahogany couch, spacious seats, bright windows on all sides, quiet interior and exterior decoration, a warm room bath, and haircut and pedicure services.
There are definitely not as many now, but it is still more comfortable than washing in a basin at home.
Shen Xingjiang came back with Grandpa Zhang, and he went straight into the kitchen to prepare dinner.
Grandpa Zhang had a short beard and short hair, and looked elegant and kind. Jiang Wanwan asked him to sit on the small bed in the living room to rest, and Grandpa Zhang found an opportunity to talk to Jiang Jun.
Jiang Jun knew that Grandpa Zhang was his father's mentor, so he was very patient. He brought a small stool and sat next to him, listening to Grandpa Zhang talk about treasure appraisal.
Even though I didn't understand, I would still nod in agreement.
Jiang Wanwan and Shen Xingjiang lit the fire.
Jiang Wanwan looked at the meat and said, "Pig's trotters are braised in sauce. I want to eat braised ones. The ribs are stewed with potatoes. The potatoes have the flavor of meat. It tastes delicious in the whole pot."
Shen Xingjiang: “What else do you want to eat besides these?”
Jiang Wanwan looked around and said, "Make some pickled cabbage, stew some pork, and steam some egg custard."
Four dishes, finished around noon.
Jiang Wanwan rolled up her sleeves to help. Shen Xingjiang took a basin of water, and his long legs flashed before her eyes. His boots hooked a small stool, and with a little effort, the stool landed steadily on the stove.
Before Jiang Wanwan could react, Shen Xingjiang pressed her shoulders onto the chair.
"The fire-making girl, make the fire obediently."
Jiang Wanwan smiled helplessly: "Four dishes, are you sure you can do it?"
She filled the stove pit with corn stalks and lit a fire.
Chen Xingjiang poured hot water into the pot on the left, blanched the pig's trotters and spareribs together, added ginger slices and scallion segments, and soon the pot was bubbling and a layer of white foam appeared.
Shen Xingjiang went to the other side to wash two large bowls and beat five eggs into the two large bowls. After walking for more than ten days, the eggs were still fresh.
The egg yolk is very dark in color, like the rising sun. After stirring it evenly, add water. The color of the egg liquid becomes much lighter. Stir the egg white thoroughly and mix it well with the water. Add a little oil and some chopped green onions, cover it with a lid and put it on the pot fork to steam.
Jiang Wanwan lit up another stove, and when the fire started, Chen Xingjiang used an iron mesh spoon to scoop the ribs and pig skin into an aluminum basin, washed them several times with cold water, and washed off all the floating foam. He then prepared to stew the pig's trotters in the pot first, which would take a long time.
Jiang Wanwan wanted to secretly move the ribs to the side, but was killed by Shen Xingjiang's sharp eyes.
The young wife Jiang Wanwan timidly withdrew her hand and sat back.
Holding the fire poker, he looked at him boredly.
Shen Xingjiang put a piece of lard into the pot, heated it until it melted, then put in a handful of rock sugar. While boiling the sugar, Shen Xingjiang watched the fire and boiled it slowly over low heat. The color of the sugar became crystal clear, like the color of amber, but the fire was not too high, otherwise the sugar would become bitter.
Jiang Wanwan smelled the sweet scent brought out by the sugar.
"Jiangjiang, teach me how you do it."
Shen Xingjiang frowned, stirring the syrup in the pot with a spatula in his hand, and with his other hand pressed Jiang Wanwan's forehead to push her to the side: "Only one person at home can learn it, go stay aside."
She learned how to do without him...
