Wearing a mountain village tuff

Before Ye Baiyou came to his senses.The black hem set off an arc, passing in front of her very rhythmically.

Looking up again, the man who was called Mr. Imperial Envoy was already standing at the gate of the county government office.

Kneading the corrugated cover, Ye Baiyou took advantage of the subtle height advantage among a group of young and old to see clearly the appearance of the imperial envoy.

at first glance.

I just feel so young.His skin is very tender, if you say that he is eighteen or nineteen years old, some people may believe it.

Maybe they are the children of aristocratic families sent by a certain family in Kyoto to practice.Gold-plated here, the official journey back can go smoother.

Ye Baiyou was behind, unable to hear what the imperial envoy was saying.But judging by that eloquent and eloquent posture, he has the aura of a superior person.

As the saying goes, you can't just judge people by their faces.

But for people who have nothing to do with him, just look at their faces.

The official didn't say a few words, and then let the crowd disperse by themselves.

Ye Baiyou said with emotion: "This knee really hurts." In his last life, he would have knelt before the ancestors of his Ye family.

"Let's go, it's time for us to go back." Li Dengke pinched his beard, and still had a pannier hanging on his back.

An old man in his 70s is a long-lived man now, but in Nanshan County, where there are all old people and children, he can be considered half of the labor force.

A group of people, or carry or carry.Carrying my own rice and carrying the neighbor's seeds on my back, I slowly moved towards the house.

-

A rain awakened the vitality of Nanshan County.

On both sides of the spacious street, several gates were visible to the naked eye.If you listen carefully, you can still hear low voices in the alley and children playing.

They all shouted and laughed that there was food again.

The childish voice is immature, pulling the hoarse voice of the old man Twilight Yuhui, but it is also warm.Such a scene, walking down the streets of the whole county, there are five or six places.

"Grandfather, are there too many people in the county?" Li Changan walked beside Ye Baiyou, following the voice from time to time.

Today's county seems to be buzzing all of a sudden.

The crutch in Li Dengke's hand poked into the mud, leaving deep marks one after another.

"It's still early. The people outside are all those who are hiding at home and lingering. Now they have the energy to go outside."

Mr. Guan took the conversation with a hearty voice: "Come down together. After this disaster, there are no more than five hundred households left in Nanshan County."

"If it were in the past, there would be so many people that it would be almost impossible to set foot in the county."

Ye Baiyou thought about it, whether it was in the past or the present.No matter how many people there are, Nanshan County seems to be in such a dilapidated state.

There are clusters of low houses, and the most magnificent ones are the county government offices.

As he spoke, the chatterbox opened.I only heard the old man Wang Rongchang in the front tighten the rope on his back, with a smile of memory on his face:

"Although our Nanshan County is poor, it has the largest land and the largest population. There are about [-] people."

"When we settle down, people from outside will come back. It will be lively later."

Ye Baiyou listened quietly to the old men talking about the past.

The time of talking is always fast, as if for a while, a group of people walked into the village.

"Let's put it away first, and then carry the things back." After saying that, he pushed open the door of the hut.

Grandpa Wang looked at the little brother who had already entered the house, and felt a little relieved: "Brother Youyou is doing well now."

"Sensible and grown up." Li Dengke answered this sentence and continued to move forward.

As soon as he entered the house, Ye Baiyou deliberately made some noise.But no one came out.

He put down his own rice grains and sent the rest over with a basket.

When he came back, Ye Baiyou knocked on the door next door: "Brother, are you there?"

Knock three times, but no one comes to open it.The bedroom on the other side was still tightly closed.

People are not at home?

Could it be that he has already left?

After thinking wildly, he didn't open the door to look.

It took two hours to go back and forth from the village to the county, and Ye Baiyou was already hungry.In the past, I was used to eating two meals a day, but when I saw this rice grain today, I couldn't help but want to change the taste.

Since no one is there, he will make one for himself.

This time the grain is brown rice.

He is a native of the south, it's okay if he doesn't eat rice for a day.But do not eat for a month or two.That's more than a glutton.

Even the simplest rice porridge, after the rice milk is boiled, the fragrance of the rice will be fully released.Take a sip, sweet and glutinous, and feel satisfied physically and mentally.

Halfway through the meal, the two outside came back.

His feet were muddy and his clothes were dirty.The neat hair seen before going out was a little messy.If you look closely, there are also tiny leaf fragments on it.

Ye Baiyou was facing the door, drinking happily with a bowl in both hands.The brown rice was a bit of a throat hit, but it didn't hurt.

His cheeks are bulging, and he just took a big sip.Chewing at this moment, looking at the two of them from a distance, they looked a little silly.

Shen Wujing's eyes flashed, and her elder brother's appearance came into view.

"Hungry?" he said.

Ye Baiyou swallowed it whole.Thinking that there was only half a mouthful left in the pot, I was embarrassed to ask someone to eat again.He just said, "Why don't you cook it yourself."

"En." Shen Wujing nodded dispensably.

My eldest brother has gone out, but it is hard to ask where he went.The two of them are now like roommates sharing a room. They have nothing to do with each other, but they have a relationship.

After planing the rice, Ye Baiyou flew to clean up the debris.

Then...he found that the light in the kitchen was blocked.Looking around, it was Shen Wujing who came in with something.

"Let's make something to eat this evening."

"What?" Ye Baiyou took a step back and saw clearly what was in his hand.

The hairy ones are not too fat.

"I went to fight in the mountains."

"Hard work! I'll make it for you at night!!" It's worth putting in some labor to eat delicious food with my elder brother.

Ye Baiyou's eyes lit up and he took what was in his hand.

It's only when you get close that you can see it clearly. This is definitely a pheasant. "Have you entered Xishan?"

Shen Wujing pointed at Mosuo, looking at her brother's silly face, a dark light flashed in her eyes.

"Hmm." His voice was soft.

"It's hard work, hard work."

It just so happened that it has been raining for the past few days, and an ordinary person like him can't enter the deep mountains, nor can he find other food.The chicken delivered at this moment is simply the timely rain of bibimbap.

Chicken soup with rice, spicy chicken, grilled chicken, lotus leaf chicken...

In just a few seconds, various ways to eat chicken flashed before his eyes.But the best ingredients require only the most modest cooking.

That is chicken stew!

To put it bluntly, there are no ingredients at home, the spicy chicken can't get the chili, and the roast chicken can't get the seasoning.Just stewed chicken.

No matter how poor you are, there is still a little bit of oil and salt.

"Then I'll boil the water and start making it now." Ye Baiyou held the chicken wings and pulled the chicken head back to expose the neck without any wounds.

Observing on this lucky chicken, he didn't see how the chicken died for a long time.

"Trouble."

Shen Wujing finished speaking and went back to her room.Inside, Shen Er was already standing respectfully in front of the table.

"Send the message back and let the people over there take advantage of the chaos."

"Yes!"

The door of the room was closed, only Shen Wujing was left.Hooking the belt with long fingers, he took off the muddy outer shirt.

Changed from head to toe, listened to the humming of the kitchen buddy, and wrote a letter.

"My grandson dare not forget what happened yesterday. Now that I have some thoughts, I'm afraid I will stay here forever."

"Grandson is safe now, don't worry about grandparents."

-

kitchen.

Ye Baiyou came out carrying two wooden barrels.Passing by the closed door, the smile on his face widened, humming a song and going outside.

You have to pluck your hair when you eat chicken.

Use water for plucking.

There is not enough water at home.

The fields gather together.

At this moment, the speed of the flowing water at the gap in the field slowed down.The color also slowly precipitated from the original dirty brown to silvery white.

Put the bucket on the side, picked up half of the bucket, and walked home with it.

Put the water into the pot and turn on the fire.

The firewood crackled and was quickly ignited by the pine needles.After a while, the water in the pot lid began to emit white smoke.

When the lid was lifted, there were fine sandstones deposited on the bottom of the water.

A chicken weighing nearly two catties was put into a pot and poured repeatedly with water that was about to boil.Give it a spa bath from head to toe.

Immediately afterwards, Ye Baiyou placed a ponytail at the door of the kitchen.Begin plucking with light from outside.

Once the boiling water is scalded, the hair will be plucked much faster.

Then the whole chicken undressed.Only then did Ye Baiyou clearly see a hole in the pheasant's head.The bones on it were broken, and it was still a little rough to the touch.

Sure enough, the people here know both martial arts and concealed weapons.

Ye Baiyou secretly wanted to learn.But I heard that those who practice martial arts are all young, and I don't know if I can find a master to teach him in the future.

Let's put down these unrealistic thoughts for the time being, the livelihood has not been solved yet, so what else is there to talk about.

Open up and take out the internal organs.

Holding the chicken intestines and hearts in one hand, Ye Baiyou thought about it, but still didn't throw it away.

Offal is a good thing, but it's a bit more troublesome to deal with.Although salt cannot be used, plant ash is also fine.

then.As soon as Shen Wujing opened the door, she saw Ye Baiyou going out carrying internal organs and dusty ashes.

He turned his wrist and stepped up to keep up.
