Who knows! As soon as I returned to the mountains to farm, I encountered a natural disaster.

It was just before 6pm when the support pillars were driven into the ground.

There were still two hours left before Mu Xi would come back, so Zhao Yeqing planned to cook the meal first.

There wasn't much left in the glass jar, so she thought of consuming the various pickled products she had made before.

The first choice is spicy cabbage and sour bamboo shoots.

These two are actually ready to eat a long time ago, especially the spicy cabbage, which is already a little over-fermented, and the sour bamboo shoots are also very flavorful. It would be even better if it can be paired with a bowl of snail noodles.

Zhao Yeqing was a little confused. In fact, she still had several packets of snail noodles in her inventory, which she had collected when she first came back. She was reluctant to eat them.

I don’t know if Mu Xi likes this food. When they were still in school together, there were almost no snail noodles in the local area.

To be conservative, I would make spicy cabbage first today. There was still more than half of the wild boar meat in the freezer. Zhao Yeqing rummaged around and took out a bag of ribs and pork belly to defrost.

Although it is said to be pork belly, there is actually only a small amount of fat mixed in it, but it is also a very small amount of rare fat.

She didn't forget that she had to feed two little leopards today.

The ribs were soaked directly in water to thaw, and some of the blood was soaked away.

Let the pork belly soften for a while and then cut it directly. It is better to cut the meat that is not completely thawed. Cut off a small piece and put it aside, leaving it for the paste and snow cake to eat.

Cut the rest into thin slices and stir-fry with spicy cabbage later.

Not all the bee pupae picked out yesterday were frozen, but a small bowl was left, which she planned to fry.

Sweet and sour pork ribs, spicy cabbage pork belly, fried bee pupae, all that's missing is a vegetable.

Zhao Yeqing walked to the vegetable garden, picked out the fastest-growing cabbage, uprooted a handful, took it back to the kitchen, and will re-sow the vegetable patch with seeds tomorrow.

Just make a vegetable soup with the cabbage, which is light and light, just enough to relieve the greasiness of those meat dishes.

The fried bee pupa takes the longest, and the sweet and sour pork ribs take the longest. These two are the first to start.

Stew pork ribs in a big pot and fry bee pupae in a small pot.

Let's light the fire first. Yesterday, Mu Xi was making a table and planed a lot of wood flowers, which was very useful for igniting the fire.

While waiting for the fire to start, Zhao Yeqing took out the ribs and chopped them into small pieces. The ribs of the wild boar were so hard that the blade of his knife almost curled.

When the big stove starts a fire, there is no need to light the fire separately in the small coal stove. You only need to take a piece of firewood burning in the big stove and put it in, and then add some small firewood.

Boil a pot of water on the small coal stove, you will need it later when you are going to stew the ribs.

Put water in a large iron pot, put the pork ribs cooking wine and ginger slices under cold water, take them out and wash them, empty the pot and pour oil, pour the cleaned ribs back into the pot, add the ginger slices and fry until both sides are golden brown.

Add cooking wine, soy sauce, vinegar and sugar and stir well. Pour in the water that was boiled on a small coal stove. The usual amount of water is just enough to cover the ribs, but these are wild boar ribs. Zhao Yeqing added some more water to it so that the meat can be simmered longer. It will be soft.

After the ribs are stewed, you can start frying the bee pupae. There is almost no difficulty in this. Heat the oil and fry the bee pupae until they turn golden. Then you can take them out and sprinkle them with salt. Zhao Yeqing grabbed one while it was hot and stuffed it into his mouth. Fresh and crispy, with a hint of sweetness.

After the bee pupae come out of the pot, steam the rice first. When the rice is cooked, the ribs will be ready as well.

Taking advantage of the free time, Zhao Yeqing chopped the meat that had been left for the glutinous rice cakes and snow cakes into mincemeat.

The knife that had been used to chop the ribs was no longer very sharp. Zhao Yeqing took out the whetstone from under the sink and began to sharpen the kitchen knife.

Leave a finger's height between the bottom of the kitchen knife and the whetstone, and sharpen the knife at a 45-degree angle until no burr can be seen on the cut edge of the ginger slice.

Taking advantage of the sharpness of the knife, I prepared all the ingredients for stir-frying the spicy cabbage and pork belly. The knife was just placed on the scallions, and the scallions were cut in half.

The ingredients were all ready, and the ribs and rice were just ready to be cooked when I saw Mu Xi riding back from the kitchen window. The back compartment of the car was full of buckets of soybeans, and the green poles were full of brown pods.

"You go take a shower first and rest for a while. Don't be in a hurry to unload the car. You can eat soon."

Mu Xi said hello, pulled a set of clothes from the clothesline in the yard and went directly into the bathroom to take a shower.

Opening the lid of the pot, the fire on the stove was strong, and the moisture in the pork ribs was almost gone. She stir-fried it a few times with a spatula. Most of the vinegar in the pot evaporated under the high temperature. She added a little more before taking it out of the pot. Bottle cap of white vinegar.

Zhao Yeqing took the ribs and rice out of the pot, boiled water on the small coal stove, and when the water boiled, he threw in the washed cabbage.

Heat oil in a large pot and first add the green onions and pork belly. Cut the meat thinly and stir-fry it for a few times before it is cooked. Add the chopped spicy cabbage and the hot and sour flavor will come out immediately, making your mouth water.

The cabbage cooked quickly, so she took the cabbage soup off the stove while she was stirring the spicy cabbage, added salt, and set it aside to cool.

The spicy cabbage that had been fermented for a long time was too sour, so Zhao Yeqing sprinkled a small spoonful of sugar inside to neutralize the taste, stir-fried and scooped it out evenly.

He shouted to Mu Xi in the bathroom, "It's time to eat."

When Mu Xi walked to the kitchen, there was still some water vapor on his body and the vegetable soup was still very hot. He took over the dishes and asked Zhao Yeqing to just take the chopsticks and go out to wait.

During the meal, Zhao Yeqing was a little worried when he talked about the announcement on the radio this afternoon.

Mu Xi gently poked her slightly frowning brow with the end of his chopsticks, "It's nearly nine or ten degrees cooler in the mountains than in the city. Even if it's 47 or 8 degrees in the city, it's still 39 degrees in the mountains." "It's 40 degrees, so why panic? I'll cut down the bamboo and put up the awning tomorrow."

After that, he took back his chopsticks and took a bite of the rice, "I won't consider the banana leaves. Today I went down the mountain and found signs of cracks spreading. I won't go down the mountain if I can use the things on the mountain."

Zhao Yeqing said 'ah' and said worriedly, "Isn't this gap going up the mountain?"

"As long as it doesn't shake violently, it probably won't happen."

"I remember there were banana trees on the mountain, but I just don't remember where they are."

Mu Xi tilted his head in one direction, "Beside the back mountain lake, when you went to play before, you broke off a banana flower and brought it back."

Zhao Yeqing carefully recalled some impressions, but the back mountain lake was a bit dangerous. The lake was surrounded by mountains and almost no one set foot there. It was easy to encounter wild beasts near the water source.

She nodded, "Then let's use thatch."

After eating, Zhao Yeqing looked at the truck full of soybeans and regretted. When the cement was being laid, the workers should have also laid cement on the yard floor. It was okay to dry the soybeans, but it would be troublesome when the soybeans needed to be threshed.

All the plastic film cloth prepared before was used on the greenhouse, which was also unexpected.

Mu Xi estimated the remaining cement and river sand, "You can do it yourself. Just pave the middle of the courtyard, from the courtyard gate to the gate. It won't take much effort."
