clang farming notes

Duan's handwriting was quick, and with Fang Sheng's help, he packed up the vegetables and mixed the stuffing in a short while.Yu Qian said that it would be fine to eat leek stuffed pie, but after all it was too simple and not the principle of hospitality, so he mixed two kinds of stuffing, one with leek and egg, and the other with celery and pork.I also found old cucumbers, peeled and sliced ​​them, and made a cucumber and egg soup, which was refreshing and delicious, and it must not make people dry.At noon, there is no need to make any more hot dishes. I simply steamed a golden loofah and mixed it with shredded cold dishes. I also boiled shredded potatoes, boiled peanuts, and cut cucumbers into cubes.There are these two refreshing cold dishes to support the scene, but the scene is passable.

Yu Qian was really not polite, he ate and praised, and finally patted his stuffed stomach: "This is really a good day, myna is really lucky."

Zhao Ba laughed: "Although I don't have any skills, I live a better life than you! If you really have a good job, you can start a family after working for two years, and at least you can have hot water when you go back, wouldn't it be great? ?”

Yu Qian narrowed his eyes: "How can it be so good? You don't know, it's not that there are no families in our camp, it's just that his wife spent a lot of money to get married. As a result, there are hot meals, but the craftsmanship is really good. I’m not flattering, no matter what kind of food, it’s boiled with water anyway, it’s not far from the big pot of rice in the camp! There’s also something annoying, it’s easy to save a lot of money in daily life, and it’s easy not to see a little bit of meat, even when you get married. For more than half a year, I haven't cut a single piece of new clothes, just patch after patch!"

Zhao Baqi said: "What's wrong with this? How easy is it? None of our family knows how to sew, so we have to spend money to hire someone."

Yu Qian slapped his thigh: "If you really save money, you can make a living, and you can use it as a share of the family for your future children. It was later discovered that his daughter-in-law used all the money she saved to go to her mother's family! The relationship has suffered for more than half a year. It's a waste!"

Several people laughed, and Yu Qian said again: "If you are really married to such a person, you might as well not marry him. It's a good thing that he didn't give all his life money to his wife, otherwise there is no place to cry."

After talking and joking for a while, I ran out of money after traveling early in the morning, so I went to Zhao Ba's house to have a rest, and Zhao Ba naturally accompanied me.Du Zhongping left Fang Sheng to rest at home.

Zhao Ba was very curious. Ever since Yu Qian woke up after taking a break, he tried to pry his mouth open. However, Yu Qian turned to the back to look at Fang Sheng's not-so-fat pigs; I looked at the newly dug well in the backyard of my house, and unceremoniously took out the cold melons and fruits from the well to eat; then I went to see what the golden loofah looked like, and asked Du Zhongping with a smile. Two of them are going to be taken back for the brothers to try...

It really jumped from the front to the back, and then from the back to the front, so I didn't give Zhao Ba a chance to ask questions.Zhao Ba was so angry that he gritted his teeth, and was dragged by Fang Sheng to chop food for the baby pig.The rest of the money followed Du Zhongping, listening to Jin'er recite "Thousand Characters" in a childlike voice.It is said that since Duan took those older children up and down the mountain and down the river, Jin'er was left alone.Du Zhongping just took advantage of this opportunity to calm him down and increased his homework.This child, since running around the village with Dazhu and the others, although his temperament is not as cowardly as before, his health has improved a lot, and his heart is also wild. He can no longer sit still and study his lessons calmly like before.This is not a good thing. In Du Zhongping's mind, Jin'er still has a way out by studying. Judging from his body shape, it is still difficult for the Du family to do physical work, and the hardware is not up to standard.

Hearing that Jin'er recited a long paragraph, Du Zhongping nodded, and spread paper and pens on the small table for him, grinded an inkstone inkstone, and asked him to draw red by himself.Jin'er pouted, although she wanted to go out to play, she held back, her father was the scariest at this time, and she didn't want to make her angry.

Du Zhongping led Yu Qian to talk outside, saving Jin'er from not paying attention.When he got to sit under the shed in the yard, Yu Qian laughed and said, "Sure enough, the scholar's family is good at tutoring. How can such a big boy be able to sit in an ordinary family? He can recognize and write at such a young age. It's really smart!"

Du Zhongping couldn't hear others praise his child, the corners of his mouth and eyes turned up when he saw it, and then remembered that this wasn't Brother Sheng and the others, so he hurriedly said, "It can't be helped, Brother Yu just look at me and I'll know." , where can I do the crop work? I have to find a way elsewhere. Besides, Jin'er is still young and her temper is still uncertain, but no matter what, it is always good to read first and understand the principles."

Yu Qian said: "Seeing that Du Xiucai's family is happy and harmonious, and they are all reasonable, how would you like to be with Zhao Ba? I see that your two families are getting closer today, and I am also happy for my brother! Looking at the scene today, Thinking about Zhao Ba being taken care of, I would like to thank him here." As he spoke, he got up and bowed.

Du Zhongping hurriedly avoided: "Where is this talking? Myna has been helping people since we came here. If there were no myna and his wife to stand in our way, we don't know how our family would be..." Du Zhongping Cover your mouth, it's broken, why did you just say it?How can this be good?

Then Yu Qian breathed a sigh of relief: "Do you know about Zhao Ba and the others? I'm still worried that you don't know what I should tell you?" Yu Qian sat back in his seat, took a sip of tea and said, " You don't know, because of the two of them, Zhao Ba has been aggrieved. I guess even in this village, he doesn't have many people who can speak his mind. Otherwise, he wouldn't be able to choose such a remote place to live. I'm going out of the village. When I went to the city before, I always asked me to drink with him and talk to him. Since the Chinese New Year, when I look at him again, I feel that he is not as depressed as before. I am also happy for him from the bottom of my heart. He Zhao Batang is a man, and I admire him even for the things he did for Fang Sheng. He is a truly responsible person, and his character is right there. Value. Good brother, since you call Zhao Ba your elder brother, I also treat you as a younger brother. If you encounter any trouble, you will solve it for him. I miss you. If there is anything brother can do, You come to me for sure!"

Du Zhongping's heart warmed when he heard that, this man was actually worried about the starling couple, and said so many things to a young man like himself, no matter whether these words can be true in the future, at least he has this heart.It is said that people in the northern frontier value loyalty, so they don't deceive me.

Du Zhongping straightened his back, sat up straight, and said sternly: "I treat my starling brother Sheng as my own brother, so brother Yu Qian can rest assured." He turned his face again, and said with a smile: "We are all doing it for their own good. According to me, there is no need to thank you for this matter, it seems heretical."

Yu Qian clapped his palms and laughed: "Sure enough, I said that a good scholar who can get along with Zhao Ba must be different from ordinary rotten scholars. Today's words will tell the difference. Happy, really happy people!"

Du Zhongping picked up the tea bowl with a smile, and respectfully paid him a respect, if he had anything to say, he would put it in the tea.

Duan was busy in the kitchen at Xitou. The chicken, elbows, and braised pork were all dishes that took a lot of effort, and the fish and shrimp had to be carefully cleaned up.The pots, pans and pans here are busy with tinkling, and Du Zhongping's peaceful voice can be faintly heard over there. After a while, there is another laughter. Duan couldn't help but pursed his lips and smiled. As long as it's not the one with malicious intentions, it's also a skill to be able to get along with people happily and make them feel like a spring breeze.He neither belittled himself to make people look down, but also quietly made people feel that he was taken seriously, that is, along the way, Brother Ping received a lot of care from the soldiers leading the team by virtue of this hand.

The meal in the evening is really rich: braised elbows, the elbows are boiled in boiling water to bleed blood, then fried in oil pan repeatedly until it turns reddish brown, and steamed on top of sliced ​​green onions and ginger, this is not finished, Remove the onion and ginger from the steamed elbow, put it in the pot, add salt and rice wine, reduce the soup a bit, cook for a quarter of an hour, wait for the soup to thicken and stick to the elbow, then it will come out of the pot, the real color and aroma , delicious, I can’t help but drool when I look at it; there is also chicken stewed with mushrooms, this is no trick, it just relies on the umami taste of the mushrooms, the chicken soup is clear, with a little oil on the top, and the appearance is also very good Not bad; there is braised pork in a crock pot with rice wine simmered over low heat. This dish has become Zhao Ba's favorite dish. Every time he encounters this dish, Zhao Ba can eat an extra bowl of rice and even mix it with vegetable soup The rice is not wasted at all; a stewed crucian carp in sauce is prepared for the cats at home; there are also river prawns fished from the river, fried with oil and salt, it is red and bright, and it looks delicious. pretty good.Looking at the meat dishes on the table, Duan quickly stir-fried a small green vegetable, and gathered six of them, taking the auspicious meaning of "Six and Six Dashun".Although there are only six dishes, the portions are not small. The table is filled with large and small dishes.

Du'an prepared two kinds of drinks, Zhao Ba and Yu Qian drank the strong grain wine, and the remaining three adults drank the fruit wine that had been prepared earlier, it was sweet and not too sweet, even Fang Sheng could drink it. After drinking a few cups, Jin'er's drink is naturally sweet water.This child, since the Chinese New Year, will never forget to clink glasses with adults.

After waiting for Tuantuan to sit down, Yu Qian said: "Although I am a guest today, I still have to drink three cups first. I am not drinking indiscriminately. Every cup is exquisite."

Several people said: "It's important to listen to it." They urged him to speak quickly.

Yu Qian said: "I'm a vulgar person, and I speak vulgar words. The big guy just listens to his meaning, and he won't laugh at me if he thinks about it. The first drink is because of Zhao Ba brothers and his wife. These days are getting worse and worse. Alright——I saw you come to this point with my own eyes. It’s really not easy. I’ll drink this one first. Brother, I’m happy for you1”

Zhao Ba smiled and slapped him on the shoulder: "Good brother!" He also drank it all in one gulp.Even Fang Sheng did it.

Yu Qian filled it up again by himself: "This second cup, I want to respect the two little brothers of the Du family. Since you came, my brother's life has become better and better-don't refuse, no matter you help me , or the good luck brought by fate, in short, prosperous my brother! Come on, let’s go!" Wiping his mouth, he said again: "I forgot to say that in the future, all the students taught by Brother Du will be promising, so they will be really respected. Everyone should call Mr. Du!"

Du Zhongping drank it in one gulp, and raised his glass to signal: "Thank you, Brother Yu." Du An also smiled, and he was very happy to praise Du Zhongping.

Yu Qian raised his glass again: "This third cup is to congratulate myself—since the end of the war, I brought a dozen people with me and stayed under the gate of the city all day long. Now brother, I finally got a good job: I have to take a hundred brothers and arrange for those caravans from the south. It’s a worry-free fat job! Haha!”
