Chapter 176 Going up the mountain
After watching the big truck from the purchasing department of the automobile factory leave the gate,
Wang Yuanchao handed over his work to Wang Hua, took out the hemp rope, bamboo basket, and mountain knife that had been prepared long ago from the office, and went straight up the mountain.
In fact, Wang Yuanchao's space now has everything except cows and some carnivorous beasts. He even has more than 20 blind bears in the space.
So after Wang Yuanchao went up the mountain, he really just walked around the periphery of the mountain and picked up some firewood into the space.
In fact, there are many trees in Wang Yuanchao's space, and the firewood is countless.
However, the things in Wang Yuanchao's space needed to be exposed, so he could only take a walk in the mountains first.
Wang Yuanchao, who was on the mountain, discovered that there was very little firewood on the outskirts of the mountain.
Although Wang Yuanchao did not gain much in the mountains, he could understand that, after all, there were so many people living in the Hongqi Brigade, and every household needed to use firewood to cook every day.
Moreover, the winter here requires a lot of firewood. The firewood in every household is collected little by little by going up the mountain whenever you have time.
So even though it’s only summer now, there’s not much firewood on the mountain.
Wang Yuanchao walked all the way to the mountain behind his house, used his consciousness to bundle two bundles of firewood from the space, carried them on his back, went straight down the mountain to his home, and placed the firewood directly on the porch.
"Mom, I picked up two bundles of firewood and brought them back. I'll put them on the porch to dry first, and then I'll chop them into blocks.
While it's still early, I'll go up the mountain to collect some firewood and then come back for lunch."
Widow Du looked at Wang Yuanchao with a smile and said, "Okay, Yuanchao, go pick up some more firewood, but I'll just do the chopping at home.
Anyway, there is nothing to do at home every day. "
Wang Yuanchao knew that his mother-in-law didn't have much to do at home every day, so he didn't insist and said, "Okay, thank you for your hard work. I set up a few traps on the mountain early this morning.
When I go up the mountain to collect firewood, I'll go see if there's anything I can find. You can make lunch later. I want to eat salted egg yolk eggplant for lunch."
"Okay, then I'll make a salted egg yolk eggplant, a shaved salt fish, and a loofah soup."
"Okay, mother, this arrangement is good. I'll go up the mountain first."
"Okay, Yuan Chao, be careful."
"Okay, wife, mother, just rest assured."
After saying that, Wang Yuanchao picked up the hemp rope, bamboo basket, machete, led the eight dogs, and went straight out to the mountain.
Coming to the slope of the hill, Wang Yuanchao sat on a stone, took out pheasants, wild ducks and hares from the space, and began to train the dog.
Now the dogs in the family have grown quite big because of the good food. Every dog looks very imposing and has strong hunting ability.
Wang Yuanchao released more than 30 pheasants, wild ducks, and wild rabbits after a while, but the eight dogs caught more than 20 of them.
Wang Yuanchao cut open the belly of the dog and fed it with blood. Then he put three pheasants, five wild ducks and five wild rabbits into a bamboo basket, and then took out a bundle of firewood from the space and carried it on his back.
Started to go down the mountain to go home.
"Wife, Mom, our dog is so amazing.
We have only been up the mountain for a while and have already caught a lot of pheasants, wild ducks, and wild rabbits. Come and have a look."
Widow Du put down all the dishes in the pot and hurried over to take the bamboo basket from Wang Yuanchao. Wow , the basket was half full of pheasants, wild ducks and wild rabbits.
After Wang Yuanchao scattered the firewood on the porch, he said, "Mom, please prepare these game this afternoon. There are three pheasants. You can stew them all in the evening. Let's drink pheasant soup to nourish Yuanyuan.
It's so hot today, if the pheasant is left out for too long it will become stale and all the nutrients will be lost."
"Okay, Yuan Chao, I'll stew these pheasants in one pot that night."
"Well, wild ducks and rabbits, you can pickle them, dry them, or eat them. It's up to you.
We have these dogs at home, so we will never lack game to eat, don't worry."
"Okay, Daha, they are doing really well. We really didn't raise them in vain."
Wang Yuanchao sighed in his heart. Fortunately, he kept his young wife and mother-in-law at home and basically did not let them go up the mountain. They did not know what the situation was like on the mountain now. Otherwise, Wang Yuanchao would not be able to fool them now.
Wang Yuanchao likes to eat salted egg yolk eggplant, which is soft and sticky, with a rich salted egg yolk flavor accompanied by the fragrance of eggplant. One bite and his appetite is improved.
After a delicious lunch, Wang Yuanchao did not go to the poultry breeding base, but took a nap at home and started to go up the mountain again. Throughout the afternoon, Wang Yuanchao went up the mountain four times and brought six bundles of firewood.
Twelve hares, eight ducks, and eight pheasants returned home.
After breakfast and boxing practice, Wang Yuanchao said to his wife and mother-in-law before leaving for the educated youth camp: "Wife, mother, I went to the traps this afternoon and found a wild boar and a silly roe deer.
I was afraid that someone would find me when I went down the mountain with the game in broad daylight , so I hid in the mountain. After I finish the meeting with the educated youth, I will bring the game back. You can boil some water in the kitchen later, and when I bring the game back, you can quickly pack it up. "
Widow Du and Zhang Yuanyuan both looked at Wang Yuanchao with surprise. If they had known that the bacon and dried meat that Wang Yuanchao made during the winter at home would be eaten up bit by bit by the whole family, they would have felt very sad.
It is easy to go from frugality to extravagance, but it is difficult to go back to frugality from extravagance.
The mother and daughter, who were used to eating delicious food at home every day, were very panicked when suddenly there was no meat at home, but they couldn't express their feelings to others. Now they heard that Wang Yuanchao had hunted another large wild animal, including a wild boar, and they were really happy.
"Okay, Yuan Chao, that's great, we don't have much pork left at home.
Let's make oil from the suet and fat of this wild boar."
Wang Yuanchao took the things home. He didn't care what the mother and daughter did with them. Wang Yuanchao was not short of supplies, it was just that the mother and daughter didn't know about it, so naturally they didn't value these things much.
When Wang Yuanchao finished his political class at the educated youth camp, and tied up a wild boar weighing more than 200 kilograms and a silly roe deer weighing more than 60 kilograms with hemp rope and dragged them back to his home, Widow Du and her daughter cheered.
Wang Yuanchao dragged the two prey into the kitchen and immediately began to skin, chop the meat, and refine the oil. The family of three was busy.
While Wang Yuanchao was busy dealing with the prey, he did not notice that there was a pair of eyes next door who saw clearly the action of Wang Yuanchao dragging the prey into the yard.
After discovering that Wang Yuanchao had returned home after hunting in the mountains, Liu Qianqian, who was staying in the yard next door, soon smelled the fragrant aroma of lard, which was continuously coming to her own yard. Liu Qianqian fell into deep thought.
