Right now he is on the mountain, guarding the stove pit to burn walnut pine cones for Su Anying.
In the afternoon, when Xu Shiyan was digging traps and placing guns outside the field, he picked up some walnuts and shot a few pine cones.
This is the only good thing about the mountain. It is far away from the village, there are few people coming, and there are many kinds of mountain goods.
Su Anying is pregnant, and it is said that pregnant women eating more nuts is good for their children.
So when cooking just now, Xu Shiyan buried two pine cones in the stove pit, pulled out the pine cones after they were cooked, and the charcoal in the stove pit was still very hot.
So Xu Shiyan grabbed a large number of hickory nuts, dipped the front tip in cold water, and inserted them vertically into the charcoal fire.
After a while, I could hear a snap, and the front tip of the walnut split.
When the pine cone is cooked, put it upright, lift your foot and kick hard, the pine nuts inside will burst out, and use your hands to pick the rest to find it.
One big pine cone can produce almost two taels of pine nuts, and two pine cones are enough for Su Anying to kowtow all night.
Fresh pine nuts are sweet and fragrant when cooked, and they are more delicious than dry fried ones.
Su Anying held a pair of pliers in her hand, pinched them open one by one, and pulled out the pine nuts inside and piled them together.
Taking advantage of Xu Shiyan's inattention, he stuffed it into his mouth.
"I don't want to eat, you can just eat." Xu Shiyan was stunned for a moment, then smiled.
"Eating nuts is good for your health, especially for children. It is said that eating more nuts will make your children brighter and smarter."
He doesn't have much desire for snacks, he eats when he has it, and forgets if he doesn't.
For him now, nothing is as important as Su Anying and the child in her belly.
"There are so many, and you even burned walnuts. This way of eating, I guess I'll be a ball before the baby is born."
Su Anying looked at her slightly protruding belly. It's only been a few months, and she feels like she's gained weight several times.
"It's okay, even if it becomes a ball, it's the most beautiful one."
Xu Shiyan smiled, picked out a walnut from the stove, picked up a knife and chopped it along the opening, just splitting the walnut in half.
"Get an awl, pick the walnuts yourself, and I'll go out for a walk."
After all the walnuts were split open, Xu Shiyan got up and went out for a walk with a gun on his back.
The site of the big house is not big, and with the newly planted mallet field in autumn, it is only about two thousand feet long.
This year's land and horse roads are wide, so after conversion, it is about fifty or sixty mu of land.
With a gun on his back and a flashlight in one hand, Xu Shiyan strolled around the field, shaking the grass outside with the flashlight from time to time, and then checked whether the sticks clamped around him were damaged.
In the evening when watching ginseng, you need to take a walk. Basically, you have to go around the ginseng field and some main places inside.
Especially those places that are more convenient for people to come in, or where there are tall bushes that can hide people, you have to check carefully.
Avoid someone sneaking into the ginseng field and stealing ginseng in the middle of the night.
Although Xu Shiyan set up various traps around the venue, he didn't dare to be careless, he wandered around wherever he should go.
If he lost the mallet in his hand, it would be a shame.
Xu Shiyan wandered around the venue for half a circle, everything was normal.Xu Shiyan was relieved, and walked back around the other side.
Just as he wandered to the southeast corner of the venue, he suddenly heard a bang, followed by a howling like a pig.
Yes, the gun rang out. Hearing the sound, the wild boar should have been injured.
Xu Shiyan was startled, and immediately ran towards the place where the gun was fired with the gun in his hand.
Chapter 56 Wild Boar
Wild boar has rough skin and thick meat.
Especially the adult wild boars, who roll in the mud all day long and rub itchy on the trees.
A mixture of mud, gravel, pine oil and other things will be hung on the shoulder blades and back, which is also called wild boar armor.
Generally speaking, ground guns produce gun sand. Although they cover a wide area, their lethality is insufficient.
Dealing with wild boars that have already hung armor, I am afraid that even the skin cannot be penetrated, and the wild boars cannot be hurt at all.
So Xu Shiyan felt strange, how could there be the movement of wild boars being injured and howling?
And listening to that voice, it seems that you are still hurt?
The location of the ground gun was very close to Xu Shiyan, and one could hear the howling of wild boars in the woods, as well as the movement of wild boars running rampant among the woods.
It was obvious that the wild boar was running around in the woods to escape after being injured.
Xu Shiyan was impatient, but there was nothing he could do. It was dark now, his vision was affected, and he was in the overgrown forest, so he had no way to chase him.
Just when Xu Shiyan was very annoyed, he suddenly heard a plop, followed by the tragic cry of a wild boar.
Xu Shiyan was overjoyed, knowing that the wild boar had fallen into the trap he dug during the day because of his panic.
There was not enough time during the day, so Xu Shiyan dug two traps, one of which was near here.
The pit was as high as a person, and there was a nail board inside. The iron nails on the nail board were more than three inches long, and they were extremely sharp.
Sure enough, the screams of the wild boar continued one after another, always fixed in one position, and that direction was exactly the trap Xu Shiyan dug.
Knowing that the wild boar fell into the trap, Xu Shiyan was not in a hurry, and returned to see Shen Xiaofang with his gun on his back.
As soon as he opened the door and entered, he saw Su Anying standing there nervously with a kitchen knife in his hand.
Seeing that it was Xu Shiyan who came in, Su Anying was relieved.
"What's the matter? I heard a bang just now, as if something else was calling?"
"Well, it should be a wild boar, touched the line of the ground gun, and was collapsed by the ground gun.
I listened, as if I fell into a trap again, it’s all right, I’ll get up early tomorrow morning, I’ll go and have a look, it’s too late at this time, I can’t see anything clearly. "
Xu Shiyan installed a lot of institutions nearby, and it was too dark to see clearly at night, so Xu Shiyan didn't dare to go there rashly, so let's wait until the morning.
Knowing that it was a wild boar, Su Anying also breathed a sigh of relief, and quickly put down the kitchen knife.
"You don't have to come in to be a thief. I'm afraid you're walking outside. What if you meet a thief?"
Xu Shiyan smiled, hugged his wife's shoulders, and the two walked into the back room.
"Don't worry, where are there so many thieves? Let me tell you, the last time I threw the mallet, there must be an insider."
Xu Shiyan had thought about this matter a long time ago, and the timing of throwing the club was too coincidental.
It happened that old Li had an accident and was hospitalized. He just found someone who is not very good at reading, and he lost his club?
And when those people came in, they didn't go anywhere else, but ran directly to the frozen sticks?
You must know that the leaves of the mallet are all withered at this time. If you are not a person who knows the basics, how can you steal so accurately?
Nearly 200 feet of mallet, no matter how low the output is, it can weigh more than [-] catties. It takes a lot of time to process and make goods and then sell them.
Now that the police are arresting everywhere, it is not easy for the thief who stole the mallet to hide, and he will never dare to go up the mountain to steal again.
Su Anying is not that interested in these things, anyway, as long as Xu Shiyan is safe and sound.
It was getting late, and the two of them packed up and had a rest.
In the middle of the night, Xu Shiyan went out for a walk again, but there was nothing unusual everywhere.
As soon as it was dawn, Xu Shiyan wandered out of the field with a gun on his back and a rope and other things, and came to the location where the gunshot fired last night.
Sure enough, the ground gun line was tripped, and the gunpowder and gun sand in the gun were also emptied, and some blood can still be seen nearby.
Xu Shiyan didn't search hard along the bloodstains, but went straight to the trap.
When I got to the other side of the trap, I saw that some of the branches covering it had fallen into the pit.
Taking a closer look into the pit, there was indeed a black thing in it, which was quite big, probably weighing at least two hundred and sixty-seventy catties.
I don't know if he was injured and bled to death overnight, or he lost his strength because of the tossing, anyway, the pig didn't move in the trap.
Xu Shiyan didn't go down rashly, but raised his gun and shot the wild boar in the head first.
Sure enough, a shot hit the wild boar's head, and the wild boar let out a muffled grunt, twitched a few times in the trap, and then stopped moving.
After confirming that the wild boar was really dead, Xu Shiyan was relieved.
Tie the rope to a nearby tree, go down the rope by yourself, avoiding the pegboard below, and tie the rope to the wild boar.
After the wild boar was tied up, Xu Shiyan climbed up along the rope, cut some wood to make a temporary winch, and dragged the wild boar up from below.
After a lot of effort, the wild boar was finally dragged back to the yard.
So they called Su Anying to help, and the couple disemboweled and skinned the wild boar.
"Daughter-in-law, you sell those pigs and feed them to the dogs."
Xu Shiyan only took off the pig's heart and put it aside, he didn't want the rest of the goods, and asked Su Anying to feed it to the dog.
Su Anying was obviously taken aback, "Huh? Feed the dog?"
Don't blame Su Anying, people can't eat much meat these days, even if it's off the shelf, it's still the same when it's packed up, so why would you want to feed it to a dog?
"Well, hello to the dogs, those dogs were drugged before, and they have not been very energetic.
We see that the ginseng is mainly pointing at them, feed them the offal, and make up for it, maybe they will get better soon. "
Dogs played a very important role in the participation. These dogs were carefully fed and trained by Mr. Li. With them, it is much easier to watch the participation.
"Don't worry, we will definitely not be short of meat in the future. After raising those dogs, I will be free in a few days. I will try to take them into the mountains to hunt."
Old Litou himself is an excellent gunner, and the dogs he raises are definitely not bad. Those dogs are all famous for being very good.
It's a pity that old Litou can no longer go up the mountain because he is too old, wasting those few good dogs.
As soon as Su Anying heard what Xu Shiyan said, she stopped being entangled, so she went straight to the kennel next to her with the goods.
Originally, there were seven dogs on the mountain, but the last time people came in, two of them were killed by medicine.
The remaining five dogs were also sickly, so Xu Shiyan put them all in a nearby warehouse.
If Su Anying came to feed these dogs when they were still healthy, they would definitely not recognize them.
But at this moment, the dogs were still wilting, and they didn't have much temper.
Besides, they might have smelled the smell of meat, and they wobbled up from the ground one by one, looking at Su Anying with longing eyes.
Su Anying divided the goods in the basin into several portions, put them in the dog food bowls, and sent them to several dogs.
"Eat, eat and get better soon."
Perhaps feeling Su Anying's kindness, the dogs didn't bark, but lowered their heads and began to eat the pigs in the pot.
In these years, people may not be able to eat enough, let alone dogs?
Because these dogs are watching ginseng on the mountain, the team manages what they eat. On weekdays, they just eat corn noodles with some potatoes or something.
He has never been hungry, but it is impossible to eat meat.
Today, I opened meat suddenly, my good guy, I don’t want to be sluggish, I’m afraid I’m too slow to eat, like a storm, I ate all the pigs.
Chapter 57 There is meat to eat
Su Anying went to feed the dog, while Xu Shiyan took the skin and bone from the pork, chopped it into large pieces and put it away.
A sow weighing 200 to [-] jins has nearly [-] jins left.
Autumn is the time when wild boars are fattening. The walnuts, scallion seeds, hazelnuts, jujubes, etc. in the mountains are full of food, so don’t you save a belly of fat for the winter?
It's good now, it's all here for Xu Shiyan.
Xu Shiyan cut off all the sacs under the pig's belly and piled them up in a porcelain basin.
In this day and age, what people love most is fat meat, and these are good things.
"Daughter-in-law, after a while you will cut up and refine these sacs and fat."
Xu Shiyan just finished dividing the meat here, and Su Anying also came back after feeding the dog, Xu Shiyan pointed to the fat in the basin and said.
"Let's keep a portion for the waist and the back, and let the second elder brother or the fifth son go to work on the mountain later, and let them take some back home."
As Xu Shiyan said, he put the meat back together, put it in a basin and put it in a cool place.
With so much meat, how could the couple finish it all?
