Rebirth 78, marry Qingmei as my wife

"Okay! Let's let them go for now. When we need it, we'll pay for it again." Qian Shengli looked at the cave that was becoming increasingly difficult to dig, and could only nod.

Liu Hongjun did not really leave badger roots, or to protect the sustainable development of badgerzi.

For ordinary people, badgers are more harmful to crops than wild boars.

However, it would take too much effort to dig further, and the covering soil on the top of the cave has reached two meters.

It is not worthwhile to continue digging holes.

"Good thing you're injured, let's go home and eat meat and drink wine!" Liu Hongjun greeted Qian Shengli and the others with a smile.

After disemboweling and bleeding the six badgers they had just killed, the four men carried eleven badgers down the mountain and went home.

·······

At Yang's house in Yushu Village, Yang Qiuyan looked at the time. It was already four o'clock in the afternoon. He got off the kang, put on his shoes, and was about to go out.

"Yanzi, what are you doing?" Yang Guangfu, who was sitting on the kang smoking, asked.

“Dad, I’m going to visit the Red Army brother’s house.

He went into the mountains to get badger seeds for his mother. I went to see if he was back. Yang Qiuyan said crisply.

"Silly girl, how can you be so fast! They will go into the mountains in the afternoon, and they will be back soon tomorrow afternoon." Yang Guangfu said with a smile.

"But, I heard them say, isn't it easy to pick out badgers? You just go wherever you go, pick them out and come back. How can it take so much time?" Yang Qiuyan said charmingly.

"Haha!" Yang Guangfu smiled and shook his head.

The reason Yang Qiuyan thought it was easy to pick out badger seeds was because he was misled by the hunters who came to his house to drink.

Yang Guangfu is the production captain of Yushutun, so there is no shortage of guests at home. Those hunters who come back from the mountains will carry some rare prey and come to Yang Guangfu's house to drink.

The purpose is naturally to please Yang Guangfu.

Before the production team was separated, the hunter was just a work station in the production team. The hunter had to submit prey to the production team in exchange for work points.

Work points can be exchanged for food.

Therefore, most hunters in Yushutun are used to having a drink at Yang Guangfu's house after returning from hunting.

Naturally, they brought the food and wine themselves.

It's just that this man likes to brag after drinking.

Whether wild animals in the mountains are difficult to hunt depends on how much they drink.

As long as there is enough wine, the big paws are always there to pinch it.

This also leads Yang Qiuyan to believe that hunting is really not difficult, and digging out badger holes is as easy as digging sweet potatoes in the ground.

Liu Hongjun went into the mountains after lunch. It was already four o'clock, and it was almost time to come back.

"Dad, I'm going!" After Yang Qiuyan said that, he ran out of the Yang family yard.

"Yeah!" Yang Guangfu nodded.

For some unknown reason, he did not tell his daughter about the hunter's bragging.

Maybe this is a tacit understanding between men.

If you point out that others are bragging after drinking, others will be able to expose you.

Man, who dares to say that he doesn’t brag after drinking?

Yang Guangfu did not expect that the four of them, Liu Hongjun, dug out eleven badgers just like digging sweet potatoes, and they were already walking back.

When Liu Hongjun and the four returned to the village, it was already past five o'clock in the evening.

"Brother Red Army, are you back?" Hearing the barking of the dog, Yang Qiuyan walked out of the house and shouted happily, like a wife waiting for her man to come home.

"Back!" Liu Hongjun smiled.

"Wow! Uncle Shengli, Dashan, you have paid so much for stones!" Yang Qiuyan greeted Qian Shengli and the others again with a face full of surprise.

"Haha! That's what you, Uncle Shengli, don't dare to say. Picking out badgers is a specialty of the eighteen villages in Taipinggou." Qian Shengli boasted with a smile on his face.

Although Qian Shengli has a lot of experience in digging out badgers, to say that the eighteen villages are the most powerful is a bit exaggerated.

However, Liu Hongjun did not expose him.

People are tough.

"Qiu Yan, you haven't eaten yet?"

"No, it's all my father's fault. He insisted that you guys can't come back tomorrow, so I didn't cook.

I'm going to cook now. "Yang Qiuyan directly passed the blame to Yang Guangfu.

Then he went to the kitchen to cook for Liu Hongjun and others.

"Wait a minute, let's stew badger meat tonight." Liu Hongjun stopped Yang Qiuyan and said with a smile.

They took out a total of eleven badgers, most of them were mature badgers, weighing about fifteen or six kilograms, and the eleven badgers totaled one hundred, seventeen or eighty kilograms.

According to the ratio of ten pounds of meat to one pound of badger seed oil, seventeen or eighteen pounds of badger seed oil can be baked.

The old mother-in-law can't use so much.

Therefore, Liu Hongjun planned to stew two or three badger seeds and bake the rest in badger oil.

"Yeah!" Yang Qiuyan agreed, looking at Liu Hongjun with admiration.

Liu Hongjun, Qian Shengli, Dashan and Shitou worked together to nail eleven badgers to wooden boards, skin them and remove their bones.

Remove the badger meat and set aside.

Badger skins can also be sold for money.

Scrape off the remaining meat and fat on the skin, and after it dries, it will be a very good piece of skin, worth a few dollars.

After Liu Hongjun skinned two badgers, he handed over the skinning work to Qian Shengli and others.

Liu Hongjun walked into the kitchen carrying the peeled badger meat.

First chop the badger meat into small pieces and then soak it in water.

Badger meat has a strong fishy smell. The normal method is to soak it for several hours to soak out the blood.

However, Liu Hongjun doesn't have that much time now, so he just tries to soak in it for a while.

Then clean it.

While Liu Hongjun was cleaning the badger meat, Yang Qiuyan had already started lighting a fire and boiling water.

After the water boiled, Liu Hongjun put the badger meat into the boiling water.

Stir constantly with a shovel and skim off the blood.

When there is no more blood foam, take out the badger meat and set it aside for later use.

After cleaning the pot, Liu Hongjun dug out a large spoonful of oil and put it into the pot.

With a tingling sound, a rich aroma filled the air.

Big oil is a fatty oil boiled from lard fat.

Fatty oils for cooking are more fragrant than vegetable oils.

Then, Liu Hongjun poured the badger meat into the pot and started to stir-fry.

After frying the badger meat until golden brown, take it out.

Add oil again, sauté onion, ginger, star anise, cinnamon and pepper until fragrant, then add badger meat into the pot again and stir-fry.

Because the soaking time is relatively short, in order to cover up the fishy smell of badger meat, some chili peppers are added to the ingredients, and a lot of cooking wine, sugar, and soy sauce are poured in.

Some time ago, Liu Hongjun learned from Master Zhao how to stew wild animal meat to remove the fishy smell.

That is to use heavy oil and heavy materials.

In addition to adding peppers and cooking wine that can remove the fishy smell, you can also add more oil and increase the amount of various seasonings. This is heavy oil and heavy ingredients.

This method is usually used by chefs to deal with stale meat.

After stir-frying for a while, Liu Hongjun added a lot of water to the pot and told Yang Qiuyan to look at the pot and simmer over low heat.

He took some bone dog food and went out to feed the dog.
