portable space

In winter, the firewood in the mountains is very dry, and there is no smoke when burning. The pheasants and rabbits roasted when skewered and turned with a steel fork are particularly attractive, especially the plump rabbits, which are dripping with oil and making a sizzling sound.

.

The few people who had not eaten for almost the whole day were all staring at the pheasants and rabbits, and even talking a little absent-mindedly.

Qu Xiaoling's stomach growled unsatisfactorily, but she was not embarrassed at all. She stroked her stomach and said, "I feel like I can eat two rabbits in one go now."

Old Man Qian said with a smile: "This rabbit is not small. If you can eat two rabbits in one go, your appetite will be bigger than mine, and you can catch up with the handsome man."

"I don't dare compete with Mr. Zhang." Qu Xiaoling looked at Zhang Taiping's huge body, shook her head and laughed, "The village chief called Mr. Zhang Marshal, and you called him the same, why is that?

ah?"

Old Man Qian laughed and said: "This is his self-proclaimed nickname. As for the reason, you have to ask himself."

When Zhang Taiping saw Qu Xiaoling looking over, he waved his hand and said, "I was just playing around when I was in school. Now everyone just calls it smooth."

Qu Xiaoling was actually not interested in these things now. What she was most interested in was the things roasting on the fire. She asked Old Man Qian: "How long will it take to get better?"

Old Man Qian put the seasoning on it and said, "Just put the seasoning on it and wait a while."

"Didn't you leave out the seasoning before?" Qu Xiaoling asked.

Old Man Qian put the pheasant and rabbit on the fire again and said: "The previous one was the base. After roasting for a while, it got into the meat. However, after roasting, the taste will be a bit bland, so wait until it is almost ready.

Then put a layer of seasoning on top to enhance the flavor."

Qu Xiaoling listened to the last sentence carefully and asked with bright eyes: "You mean it will be fine soon?"

"Yes, it will be ready soon." Old Man Qian quickly turned the iron fork over.

Not only were a few people staring longingly, but the five big dogs squatting around also looked the same.

"Okay!" Soon old man Qian shouted and took the iron fork off the fire. The aroma spread freely as he waved it, and all the big dogs stood up.

"You don't have a share in these." Old Man Qian said to the big dogs. In fact, the big dogs had already had their fill during the hunt, so naturally they don't have a share now.

"Do you want to use these leaves?" Qu Xiaoling asked as she picked up the two palm-sized leaves that Zhang Taiping had cleaned before.

Old Man Qian nodded: "Well, just use this." Then he took out a shiny knife and separated a rabbit and put a portion on top of the leaves for each person. "First, divide some for each person to pad the belly.

The next one will be ready soon.”

Qu Xiaoling was given a rabbit leg, and her mouth was full of oil after taking a bite. Old man Qian put a lot of chili powder on it. Although there was a lot, it didn't feel greasy, and it just felt delicious. "It's so fragrant! Mr. Qian's craftsmanship is really good.

.”

Old Man Qian said with rare self-effacement: "Actually, this roasting method is not a rare secret recipe. The reason why you feel so delicious now is because you are very hungry now."

Qian Qingxian said: "It would be great if I could have a few more bottles of beer now."

"I don't have beer, but I have a few jars of soju. I wonder if you guys want to drink it?" Zhang Taiping said as he entered the wooden house and took out a small bottle of wine from the space. He didn't dare to take a jar that was too big, otherwise it would be difficult to explain.

Qian Qingxian's eyes lit up and he said: "Soju is better. In winter, you should drink soju to warm up."

"Hey, talking about soju, I remembered that a few years ago I hid a few jars of wine here, but I don't know if they are broken now." Old Man Qian patted the scene and suddenly stood up and said, "You guys wait here for a while. I'll go get it."

Old Man Qian went to get the wine. Zhang Taiping sat where he had just sat and continued to turn the iron fork. When he roasted the second rabbit and put it into the leaves in everyone's hands, Old Man Qian came back. He was also carrying two jars the size of his head.

"Hahaha, you're lucky. I just opened it and took a look and it's not broken!" Old Man Qian walked over with a big smile.

"How can we drink without a cup?" Qu Xiaoling asked.

Old Man Qian said: "Don't you all bring cups? Just pour out the water in them. Marshal and I just drink from the jars if we don't have cups."

Several people poured out all the water in the cups and poured the same amount of soju into the cup. When Qu Xiaoling arrived, old man Qian saw that she was a woman, so he only poured a third of the cup for her.

Qian Qingxian smiled and said: "Brother Qian, you are looking down on others. Although Xiaoling is a woman, she is definitely a hero among women at the wine table. She has a much better drinking capacity than us elders. So, How can it be possible?"

After hearing this, Old Man Qian saw that Qu Xiaoling didn't show any sign of rejection, so he poured the wine for her to the same level as everyone else and said, "It's amazing that a woman can drink like this."

In fact, this is because Mr. Qian has not been out of the country for many years, has not been exposed to modern life in the city, and has some ideas about men being respected. In modern cities, there are countless women who can drink better than men, such as the queen of the river. What a rare thing there.

After everyone clinked their glasses, Old Man Qian said: "My wine is not as good as the good wine brought by the commander. This is Shaodaozi brewed in the village. It is strong!"

Qian Qingxian said with a smile: "In this situation, you should drink strong wine to stay energetic! The stronger the better!"

"Haha, okay!" Old Man Qian laughed. Although he was nearly sixty years old, his laughter was as vigorous as that of a man in his prime. "Then let's have a big fight!"

"Cuckoo." The black dog next to Old Man Qian pawed at the inner part of his paws and barked.

"Hey, let's forget about you." Old Man Qian said, patting the black dog's neck, then stood up, found a grooved stone, and poured some wine into it.

The black dog seemed very happy. He immediately rushed forward and stuck out his tongue, chirping, and at the same time, he was also on guard against the surroundings, lest the other four big dogs would come forward to grab the food.

Qu Xiaoling asked in surprise: "Mr. Qian, do you, a black dog, drink too?"

Old Man Qian said quite proudly: "One of the characteristics of my dog-raising is that I feed the dog some wine since it was a child, and it will naturally drink."

"Why do you give your dog alcohol? Aren't you afraid of getting drunk?"

"It's easy to get drunk in the beginning." Old Man Qian said, "But after feeding him a little every day, I gradually gained the ability to drink. Now I'm fine with just a little." After a pause, he added, "This thing can build courage, so you can cultivate it." The courage of a big dog, so the dogs I raise have never been naughty. They are all very courageous. When they see a black blind man, they dare to pounce on him and bite off two pieces of meat."

"I didn't expect wine to have such an effect." Qu Xiaoling said curiously.

The black dog licked up the wine in the stone trough, and then came over to rub Old Man Qian's trouser legs.

Old Man Qian patted it and said, "You can't drink too much tonight, we have to keep a vigil later."

"You are so handsome." Qu Xiaoling also called Zhang Taiping like this along with Old Man Qian. "Why don't you feed your big dogs some wine?"

When they were at home, the big dogs would occasionally drink some wine. It was not that they had no capacity for alcohol. The mountain nights in winter were still very cold, so it was good to drink some wine to warm up, so he said, "Then give it to them too."

Drink some."

Some wine was found in the stone trough. Ghostface came over, sniffed it and left again. Although it had drunk wine, it was not good at it. The other three big dogs lay down next to the stone trough and started drinking.

Grizzly Bear also had a similar experience to Old Man Qian's black dog since he was a child, but it was not Zhang Taiping who fed him wine, but Yaya and Fan Ming who secretly fed him wine, so this guy is the one who likes drinking the most among the four big dogs in the family.

Yes, I drank the most at this moment.

It can make people brave! This is a sentence that people often say, but this sentence is equally suitable for dogs, and it can also make the blood in the body of big dogs boil and burn.

The guy Grizzly Bear obviously became agitated after drinking, and soon he ran over to provoke the black dog.

The two dogs had a fight in the snow years ago, but it ended in the black dog's defeat. However, the black dog was fierce and refused to admit defeat. At this time, he did not flinch in the face of the grizzly bear's provocation, and he arched his body and exploded.

Raising hair tit for tat.

Seeing that the two dogs were about to fight each other, whining sounds suddenly came from the surroundings, and at the same time, pairs of green eyes appeared in the woods in the distance.
