Carrying the Ba Zong's child to farm

Zhao Danshi and Li Ping looked into the yard, and following the voice came Yao Jingming in high spirits.

Yao Jingming has a woolen sweater, narrow-leg pants, and a windbreaker over his coat. He is handsome and handsome. The outside stars are not as well-dressed as him for the activities.When he saw Li Ping and Zhao Shanshi, he showed a bright smile and trotted over.

"Brother Yao, when are you coming back?"

"Just this afternoon, I said you can do it. In just two days of work, a large group of wild boars were brought back." Yao Jingming stretched out his hand as he said, wanting to hug him.

"Ah!" Doudou looked at his face, wrapped his arms around Zhao Danshi's neck, twisted his head, and buried his face in Zhao Danshi's shoulder, refusing to go over.

Yao Jingming was a little surprised, "What's wrong with Doudou? Why don't you let me hug you?"

Zhao Shanshi smiled wryly, "Didn't we go into the mountains to find tea trees two days ago? We didn't come back for two days, and we didn't see us around. Think hard, I don't feel safe now, and I'm afraid it will take a while to recover."

Yao Jingming stretched out his small hand to scrape Doudou's face, with distressed eyes.

He asked, "How did you find the tea tree?"

"We found local ancient tea trees, and we also found two kinds. We went to apply for a collection certificate today. After the collection certificate is approved, we will go up the mountain to dig the trees back and plant them in our fields."

"How is the quality of the tea from this wild tea tree?"

"I don't know yet, we'll know when the tea comes out next spring." Li Ping has confidence in this batch of tea trees, and with the presence of scientific research institutions in the shopping mall, the taste of this batch of tea trees will not be bad.

A few people walked into the yard, Liu Erhua and the three consciously cooked, and Shao and the others went home after finishing today's work.

The old man was comfortably listening to books on the small radio in the yard. When he saw them coming in, the old man sat up and asked, "How are things going today?"

"Very good, everything is going well, and we can dig the tea tree back in a few days."

It was also the first time that the old man knew that there were tea trees here. On weekdays, the villagers drink tea and buy tea from outside. He never thought of picking leaves on the mountain to make tea.

The old man didn't understand their affairs, so he was relieved to hear that everything was going well. He lay back and listened to the story leisurely. If there were libretto on the radio, the old man could sing along to the radio slowly.

To rest in peacetime, the old man would take DouDou and put it in his arms immediately, but these two days DouDou has been tightly attached to his two fathers, and no one would hug him, so the old man had to wait for DouDou to recover from this period.

Zhao Danshi hugged Doudou, Li Ping went to make tea, and the three of them sat in the courtyard and talked.

Li Ping asked: "How are things going when you go back this time? Your family agrees to your coming?"

"Agreed." Yao Jingming was a little proud, "My dad said that I am idle outside, so I might as well come to the countryside and see if I can make a career."

Li Ping glanced at him, "What about the blind date? No more?"

Yao Jingming was stunned, "What kind of a blind date? If I am promising, I will definitely have a lot of girls come to find me in the future."

His father's original words were: This brat has been on a blind date for so many years, and there is no movement at all, what a blind date.It's also an eyesore for him to stay at home, so it's better to let him go to the countryside.

Li Ping smiled: "I have to say: welcome to officially join us."

Zhao Danshi and Li Ping shook hands with him respectively, and when they looked at each other, the three couldn't help laughing.

Yao Jingming asked: "I heard that the village will hold a village banquet this Saturday. What will we eat? Our vegetables are not sold in the village, right?"

"I sold some vegetables, but the meat and vegetables were not sold in the village, so I had to go out and buy them."

Yao Jingming nodded, "Our food has to be positioned properly, and we can't sell it casually in the future. If we lose money, the entire brand value will also be low."

Zhao Danshi said: "There is no way to make vegetarian dishes for the time being, but the brand of meat can be made."

Yao Jingming stretched his waist, "It's okay, let's take it step by step. I don't believe that I won't be able to make a career in the next few years."

While they were talking, dinner was ready, Zhao Mingtai came out to clean the table, and they were ready to eat.

Yao Jingming looked at the wild pork on the table with curiosity in his eyes, "It's the first time I've eaten wild pork since I grew up."

Zhao Shanshi smiled, "The taste of wild pork is more important. If it is not done well, it will be difficult to eat."

The old man was slowly putting away his little radio, and he heard the words: "The rise of wild boar is just a few years ago. If it was a few years ago, there was a family of pork, and no one ate wild boar. People would not see it." look."

Yao Jingming wondered: "Didn't you say that this wild pork is a delicacy? Why don't everyone like wild pork?"

"Hey, the wild boar has never been eunuched, and the smell of fishy smell can float for ten miles. There was no seasoning before. It is even more difficult to make this pork delicious. How can there be so delicious pork? It is tender and delicious. Fragrant." The old man shook his head and said: "I always heard people say that the food and meat in the past were good, but in fact it's nothing like that, if they really let them go back and eat a few meals of the good food and meat in their mouths, they will have to complain gone."

Zhao Danshi helped the old man to sit down, "Everyone still miss the simple life in the past."

"What do you miss? I used to live so hard. I was busy from morning to night, and I didn't even have a break. If you want me to say, the memory of the past is at most just reminiscing about bitterness and sweetness. Whoever really wants to go back to the past, that's really My brain is flooded."

Li Ping echoed the agitated old man, "Indeed, the current life is still comfortable."

A few days before Saturday, Zhao Danshi got up early the next day and took his apprentice to the vegetable field to pick vegetables. After picking vegetables, they followed the car to the county town, and Zhao Danshi took his apprentice to the county town to see the raw materials .

Don't worry about the pork, Zhao Mingzhi will take care of it.

The chickens, ducks and fish used for the banquet had to be checked by Zhao Danshi and his disciples.

To make a good dish, you must first get the raw materials right. If the raw materials are not fresh or authentic, no matter how good the craftsmanship is, they will not be able to produce the taste.

Zhao Danshi and the others often go to the county town, and they are very familiar with the nearby markets. They probably have a little doubt about which one has the best meat and which ones have the best vegetables. There are more dishes for cooking on Saturdays, so they have to come here in advance to make an order. .

Zhao Danshi walked around and started to place an order.

"Aunt Huang, I want this local chicken, and I want this quality uniformly. One chicken weighs about three to four catties. You can give me fifty chickens first, and another twenty chickens. I may increase the quantity at any time."

The thin and tall woman in her forties on the opposite side nodded sharply, "No problem, I'll make sure it's ready for you in due time. On Saturday, you need it before five or six in the morning, right?"

"If you send it to our village before six o'clock in the morning, you must kill it on the day, clean up the chicken, and send the offal. This is 500 yuan, and I will pay the deposit first."

Aunt Huang wrote a receipt and handed it to him, "Okay, we got it, we will keep in touch on Saturday."

Zhao Danshi ordered the chicken and then ordered the fish. In the market, there are several shops selling Shantang fish. Although the price is a bit higher, it is much more delicious than feed fish.There are also several companies that sell reservoir fish. The price of reservoir fish is similar to that of forage fish, but the quality is relatively unstable. Some are big and some are small.

Zhao Danshi went to order a hundred silver carp from the mountain pond of one and a half to two catties, and planned to make boiled fish when the time came.

The remaining sauerkraut should also be ordered in advance.

The three of Liu Erhua followed Zhao Danshi, and they had a lot of experience. It was the first time that they knew how to distinguish the quality of raw materials. There were so many methods.

Zhao Mingtai was amazed, "Master, so the origin of this raw material also affects the quality? Isn't it just a matter of this town and the neighboring town?"

Zhao Shanshi glanced at him and explained: "Various factors such as altitude, precipitation, temperature difference between day and night may affect the quality of crops. Most people can't taste the nuances of these crops, but they can, and there are people with good mouths. Quite a few, you have to learn your skills and try your best to ensure the perfection of the dishes."

Zhao Danshi took them through the vegetable market, "Not to mention the relatively large side dishes such as onion, ginger and garlic, just a piece of ginger and an anise. These small spices will affect the quality of the dishes, especially these spices are very strong. If there is something wrong, it will expand to ten after it is made into a dish, so be careful."

They walked around all morning and finally preliminarily ordered all the dishes.

Zhao Danshi asked the disciples to take notes and write down all the content of today's lecture, and then write down all the vegetables bought today, and he will take the test on the day of the official banquet.

Liu Erhua and the others did not dare to take it lightly, one or two were very serious, preparing the dishes for the past two days, they all had dark blue eyes and dark circles under their eyes.

Zhao Danshi was very satisfied with the attitude of the apprentices, and asked them to hurry up and practice before the banquet started, and cook those dishes several times in advance, so as not to be in a hurry on the day of the official cooking.

"Practice steaming chicken today?" Yao Jingming took a deep breath of the aroma as soon as he returned to the yard.

Today Liu Erhua and the others are practicing steamed chicken with pumpkin.Now that the weather is getting colder, there are not many old pumpkins on the market, but the nutrients of pumpkins have accumulated to this point. One or two are very sweet, and the flesh is thick and sticky, not as watery as in summer.

Zhao Danshi personally steamed a plate of chicken as a lesson. The chicken he steamed was tender and sweet, and the fragrance of the pumpkin completely set off the chicken. A little bit of salt neither covered up the sweetness of the pumpkin nor made the chicken tasteless. Light, just the right amount of garlic adds a lot of flavor to this dish.

Liu Erhua and the others knew for the first time today that minced garlic can also be used in steamed vegetables.

At noon, the dishes were served one by one, and the four plates of steamed chicken were placed there, very conspicuous.

They are all steamed chicken, everyone will know which one is delicious and which one is not good as soon as they eat it, especially when the exact same dishes are placed on the table for comparison, everyone’s chopsticks are all stuck into the dishes made by Zhao Danshi, and they are not finished eating. Before the steamed chicken he made, he basically didn't patronize the steamed chicken made by other people.

Liu Erhua and the others looked at it, and the more they looked, the more depressed they became.

Seeing them like this, Shaobai and the others were a little embarrassed.Shao Shao patted Liu Erhua's shoulder to show comfort.

After dinner, Zhao Shanshi called them into a meeting to make a summary, and asked them to reflect on their own problems.

Zhao Mingtai was dejected, and was the first to raise his hand to speak, "Master, the chicken I cooked is too bland, and I didn't put enough salt, so it doesn't taste good, and it even smells fishy."

Liu Erhua said: "My steamed chicken is too old, and it tastes a bit chaffy, not tender enough."

Zhao Fushun was embarrassed, "I didn't steam the chicken enough time, there was still blood on the bones, and the vegetables were not cooked enough, which is a food safety hazard."

Zhao Danshi nodded, and said seriously: "It's good for you to be clear about cooking. From a certain point of view, practice makes perfect. It doesn't matter if there is more or less. If there is too much or too little, the taste will not be right."

Zhao Danshi didn't embarrass them, and let them go down to summarize and think on their own.

In the afternoon, Zhao Danshi and Li Ping were taking a nap when Zhao Danshi's cell phone rang, and he hugged Li Ping, covering his head with the quilt, not wanting to answer the phone.

Li Ping was awake, his eyes were no longer sleepy, he put Zhao Danshi in one hand, and picked up the phone with the other, "Uncle Hua Yong?"

"Hey, is it Li Ping?"

"Yes, I am."

"It's like this. Didn't you say you want tea shells and tea cakes? Today you have squeezed out the tea seed oil. There are a dozen or so bags of tea cakes here. Do you come and get them yourself, or should I send someone to deliver them to you? "

"I'll find someone to move it, thank you."

"Why are you being polite?" Zhao Huayong smiled, "Then you can find someone to carry them. The tea cakes are in the oil mill in the town, and the tea shells are in the grain drying field. You can just move them yourself."

Li Ping agreed and hung up the phone.

Zhao Shanshi was so sleepy that he couldn't open his eyes, and asked in his arms with a strong nasal voice: "The tea shell and tea cake are ready?"

"Well, I sent Brother Shaozi a WeChat message and asked him to drive a tricycle to the town to move."

"Okay, when the tea cakes are brought back and the village banquet is over, we will send the tea cakes to the field for composting."

"Do you want to clear the pond in the fish pond?"

Their fish ponds this year are all relatively common fish, and next year they will consider switching to more expensive species. The fish raised this year, there are still many small fish in the fish pond, and there are many miscellaneous fish that come with the water flow Also in the fish pond, so many fish in the same pond form a food chain.

If they only raise ordinary fish and don't need to take care of the fish pond, this situation is a happy event, but if they want to specialize in fish farming, so many miscellaneous fish will hinder the growth of the fish they really want to raise.

Zhao Shanshi yawned, "Let's clear it up. I think there are still mud snakes in that fish pond this year. It doesn't matter if there are any miscellaneous fish. There are snakes. It's very dangerous. Isn't it just right that we will be planting lotus root next year? Push the tea cakes." When we go down to the clear pond, we also pile some manure into the pond.”

Tea cakes can kill a lot of miscellaneous fish in fish ponds, and if they are composted in the field, they can also kill many pests in the field. However, tea cakes degrade very quickly and will be fine after a period of time, without hindering the normal growth of crops.

"Okay." Li Ping stretched out his hand to touch his face, and said warmly, "Are you still sleepy?"

"I slept for a long time today, and fell into a deep sleep." Zhao Danshi yawned again, and he hugged Li Ping's waist, "Brother, I saw that the strawberries in the field are almost ripe. Aren't they all sold to Brother Yao?"

"See if he wants it. If so, it's best to sell it to him."

Zhao Shanshi: "I think he will definitely want it if he wants to, but whether he wants to get so much is another matter. After all, he just runs a hotel, and there are not many places to supply strawberries. Our strawberries cost 40 yuan each. Jin, if he buys more, he may suffer a loss."

"How can he suffer from business, our strawberries are so good, maybe they are helping him to build a reputation."

Zhao Danshi thought about it and thought it was the same, "Our strawberry planting is getting better and better. I took a look at it when I was picking vegetables this morning. The big strawberries are bigger than half of my palm. They are sweet and juicy. I haven't eaten them for a long time. It's such a fragrant strawberry."

They have planted three crops of strawberries, and each crop has grown very well, especially Zhang Ji's variety, which tastes sweet and thick, and tastes better than the sour strawberries on the market.

"Are the strawberries ripe?"

"It was just ripe. I went around in the field, but I didn't find a few. The only one that was red was eaten by me."

Zhao Shanshi said: "I originally wanted to take DouDou to the field to have a look, but the strawberries are ripe and attract a lot of bees. If you go there, you may be stung by the bees. Didn't Uncle Wende say that he wanted to get the bees back?" I think we can build beehives, and then buy some bees to raise, such as loquat, strawberry, cauliflower, and milk vetch, we have a lot of honey sources here, so we don’t need to waste the bees from other people’s homes.”

"Let's talk about it after the village banquet. When the tea tree is dug back, put the beehives on it."

Zhao Danshi rubbed his pillow and responded.

Seeing that his eyes were almost closed, Li Ping seemed to be planning to sleep again, so he shook him, and whispered in his ear with a magnetic voice: "Don't sleep, sleep too much, you won't be able to fall asleep at night."

Zhao Danshi said softly: "I'll squint for a while, I'm really sleepy today, don't you have nothing to do this afternoon?"

"No."

"Then let me sleep for a while."

Zhao Danshi planned to sleep for a while, but Li Ping had no choice but to let him go, but the other villain in the room refused to agree, so he stood on the small bed, leaned on the railing and yelled loudly, "Dad! "

Zhao Danshi huddled his head in the bed, and seeing that he was about to sleep under the blanket for a while, Doudou called out again, "Dad!"

The sound of milk is milky, and the magic sound pierces the brain.

Li Ping hurried over to pick up DouDou, giggling in his arms with a crisp voice.

Zhao Danshi was so noisy that he couldn't sleep, so he lifted the quilt and sat up, leaning against a chicken coop, he opened his arms helplessly to hug DouDou, squinted his eyes and asked feebly, "Du Zai, you can't let your father live in peace." Take a nap?"

Obviously not, I have had enough sleep, and now I am full of energy, crawling on the bed quickly.

Zhao Danshi only owed his son two days ago, and now he has no choice but to play with him without complaint.

Li Ping looked at the father and son with a smile unconsciously on his face.

Saturday is coming soon, and people in the village come back one after another on Friday, and the village banquet is held on the Dasha Valley Field.

For the people at home in the village, each household moved a big table and some stools to the big sun-drying field.

Zhao Mingtai has practiced with his seniors for so long, and he has a well-thought-out plan for the dishes of the village banquet. Finally, tomorrow is the day for the official banquet. He looked at the cloudy sky and said worriedly: "It's dark, it won't be tomorrow Is it raining?"

"How can there be so much rain in autumn and winter, don't worry, the weather forecast says that the next week will be sunny."

"Weather forecast is reliable, all sows climb trees." Zhao Mingtai muttered, squatting on the big sun-drying field to watch people move stools back and forth.

Someone called them, "Mingtai, how is your food preparation going?"

"Don't worry, everything is ready, I only owe Dongfeng. My master has already ordered all the dishes, and our brothers and sisters have practiced for several days. The dishes to be made tomorrow are guaranteed to be fine."

"I just said why your yard is so fragrant these days, so you're practicing cooking."

"I think as long as we can have the level of yours these days, tomorrow's dishes will definitely be the same."

Zhao Mingtai was agitated by their expectant words and managed to pull himself together.

Although they will officially start cooking tomorrow, they have to prepare a lot of things this afternoon, such as meatball soup, they have to chop fish meat to make meatballs, and they have to knead glutinous rice flour and fish meat to make meatballs this afternoon.There are also various dry goods, such as shiitake mushrooms and fungus, which will be taken out today and soaked in the evening.

The side dishes should also be cut up, otherwise tomorrow I will be in a hurry, and I may not be able to come here in a hurry.

On the day of official cooking, they did it next to the big sun-drying field.

The people in the village built several large stoves for them. A large amount of wood was chopped and placed next to them. The fire was lit, and the pots and stoves were heated vigorously, and the raw materials were sent over like flowing water.

All the women in the village came to help, washing pots, washing dishes, washing vegetables, chopping vegetables, and doing everything.

The village is lively and lively. It is rare that the children do not have to go to school today. They run around the village, and the laughter can be heard far away.

Li Ping, Peng Yuyun, and Zhao Huayong were responsible for the overall planning. Many people came ahead of time, and they helped if they could. If they couldn't, they didn't make trouble.

Everyone sits at the table that has been prepared, and sits at a table with a good relationship. The melon seeds, drinks, and tea on the table are all ready.Everyone is busy at ordinary times, especially when they go out to work. There is no time to rest all year round, and it is rare to eat melon seeds and chat with friends.

"Here comes the first course—"

In the confusion, someone yelled, and then the scent wafted over, and there were women holding trays and serving dishes on the table.

The first dish is a combination of cold dishes and stewed vegetables. The braised wild pork is placed on the table. As soon as it is put on the table, everyone's eyes are attracted by it. The cold dish next to it is cold seaweed.

"Foods will be served one after another. You don't have to wait, everyone is ready to eat." Zhao Huayong, the village head, shouted, and everyone was polite, and immediately stretched out their chopsticks to pick up the vegetables.

"This wild pork is really delicious. I haven't eaten such a tasty wild pork for many years."

"Not to mention that I didn't know it was wild boar. This meat is really tough."

"If it was released before, no one would eat this wild pork, and now it has become a mountain delicacy."

"Don't just talk about the wild pork, this cold dish is also delicious. Shan Shi's cooking skills are good. It's not like I haven't eaten cold dishes from city people when I was outside, but it turned out not to be half as delicious as Shan Shi's. .”

"Hey, where's the wine? Let's pour some wine."

"The kid, don't drink, drink! Be careful, don't feed the kid alcohol."

The steaming dishes were served one after another, and the aroma wafted over the whole Dayang Valley Farm. A group of people with simple smiles on their faces respected each other's relatives and friends.

Zhao Danshi and his apprentices didn't delay too much, and when the dishes were ready, they immediately served them to the table. They were all people from the yard at this table.

As the boss, Zhao Shanshi took the lead in toasting them. "It's rare for everyone to have a banquet today. I will take this opportunity to have a drink with you. This year is coming to an end. You have worked hard this year. If it weren't for you, I would have a drink with you." It won't be so prosperous."

Spoon said, "Why are you being polite? We thank you for providing us with such a valuable job opportunity."

"That's right." Rao Chunfeng said cheerfully, "People who work outside don't earn as much as we do. Now at home, I can straighten my back."

Ya Zimei also said: "Yes, we all thank you and toast you."

Not to be outdone, the three apprentices said, "Master, we also want to toast you and Master."

Zhao Danshi turned his head to look at them, and seeing the sincere smiles on their faces, he couldn't help but feel emotional.Li Ping gently patted his leg under the table, silently comforting him.
