"Wife, boil some water first. I'll come back to take care of the sheep and roe deer. Xiaobai and I will take the wild boar to the canteen first."
"Sister-in-law, please boil some more water. I have to feed my sheep at your house."
They live in a tube-shaped building, so they have to be very careful when cooking more meat dishes, let alone cleaning a whole sheep weighing over 100 pounds.
If seen by those nosy people in the tube building, they would definitely become jealous again.
"Brother Li, how about your family come together?"
"Will it be too much trouble?"
"That's fine. I'm only here to boil water for you. I can't do the cleaning work."
"Then please boil some more water."
"Dad, let me help you. I can do a lot of things now. My great-grandmother even praised me for my ability today."
“Great!”
As Yan Ziyuan and Xiaobai were carrying the wild boar to the cafeteria, almost everyone who saw them would ask them a question or two.
Yan Ziyuan had a cold face throughout the whole process, and it was Xiaobai who responded all the time.
The questions people ask are just the same ones, such as where the fight took place, who played with them, and whether they got anything else...
Of course, what everyone is most concerned about is whether or not they have hit something else. As for the answer, everyone actually knows it, and it would be a bit boring to reveal it openly.
Originally, Yan Ziyuan didn't want to hunt wild boars, because they were big targets, and carrying them down the mountain was exhausting, and if he sent them to the canteen, he would be constantly questioned. But his grandfather, the old leader, got upset, and felt sorry for the soldiers' daily meals, so he didn't let go of the wild boar that they were "lucky" to encounter.
In fact, what he didn't say on the mountain was that with so many soldiers and a wild boar weighing two or three hundred kilograms, on average each person would not be able to get a piece of meat, and at most they could just taste the fishy smell of the meat.
When they returned home, Song Fuyu had already boiled a pot of water.
"Wife, go to the yard and rest. The three of us will take care of the rest."
"Uncle Yan, there are four, including me."
Seeing that he had only arranged person number three, Xiao Zheng quickly raised his hand to emphasize his presence.
"Okay, just help your dad."
"Xiao Zheng, why don't you go outside and play with your great-grandparents, or go to the studio to find your mother and sister?"
Li Hu was a little hesitant to ask Xiaozheng for help. A child who was not even six years old, if he was messing around, he might not be able to help at all and might even get his clothes wet.
In the end, the little guy might be fine, but he would have to bear the wrath of his wife.
"Dad, don't you want me to help?"
"Not really. I just feel that you have done a lot of work for your Aunt Yan today. If you continue to help Dad, I will feel a little sorry. You probably don't want to see Dad sad, right?"
"Well, I'll go find my mother and tell her you caught a sheep."
"Just whisper it."
"Okay! I'll speak very quietly."
After Xiaozheng left, Li Hu could finally devote himself to cleaning up the wild goats.
..........
With so much fresh mutton, Song Fuyu really wanted to have a barbecue, but unfortunately there was no iron net or bamboo sticks.
The iron net is not absolutely necessary. The bricks left over from building the kang can be used on both sides. The bamboo sticks are a bit troublesome. Although they can be cut on the spot, it is already 4:30 now and it may be too late to cut them.
"What's up, wife? What are you thinking about?"
Yan Ziyuan came out to get something, and saw Xiaoyu sitting by the door sighing.
"I want to eat barbecue."
"Eat if you want. I'll light a fire for you."
"It's not like you guys put the meat on a stick and grill it directly over the fire. I want to marinate the meat, then put it on the bamboo sticks and grill it slowly over charcoal fire."
"What kind of bamboo sticks do you want?"
Song Fuyu pulled him into the room, then took out one from the space and showed it to him.
"Don't worry, I'll cut a piece of meat for you first, you marinate the meat first, and I'll cut bamboo sticks for you after I've processed everything."
"OK!"
She gave Yan Ziyuan a kiss of love and left the room happily.
"Grandpa, Grandma, Uncle Wu, let's get to work!"
"What kind of work do you need to do, girl? I, your grandfather, finally got a break."
"We're going to have a little barbecue tonight, and I was just asking if you want to eat tonight."
"I don't want to eat."
"We had roasted chicken and roasted rabbit at noon on the mountain."
“Can you eat the same thing I cook?”
"What you grilled at noon must have simply been the meat, without any salt at all."
"Xiao Yu, tell me what you need me for, I'll help you. If your grandfather doesn't want to eat, we won't take him with us. Let him heat up two steamed buns and eat some pickles."
"I didn't say I won't help. Isn't it okay for me to help?"
"Okay, in that case, I'll take you alone tonight. I promise that after you finish eating, you'll come and urge me to prepare the next meal."
"Uncle Wu, could you please help me pick some vegetables from my own plot, leeks, green peppers, eggplants, lettuce... When you pass by Uncle Li's house, tell Aunt Wu to come over for dinner tonight."
"Okay, I'll go now."
"Grandpa, thank you for going to the supply and marketing cooperative. If there is fish, buy three or four. If not, buy some tofu skin, bean curd, and mushrooms."
"Okay, I, an old man, will be responsible for your shopping today."
"Hey, thank you for your hard work."
"Grandma, let me cut the meat first, and then I'll tell you how to marinate it. Please help me mix it."
"Okay, just tell me, I'll do as you say."
The barbecue team completed the division of labor, and everyone started to work, each doing their own job.
