With a Door In Mind

Chapter 11, Sweeping the Grove

By the time we got to the village, the sky was already clear.

I really look forward to being independent from home as soon as possible, so that I don’t have to go out so early to buy things in the future. No need to be sneaky either.

Thinking that there is still a big gap in the money needed to buy things today, Jiang Xiaochuan decided to catch a few more rabbits.

Turn around and head towards the woods.

When he came to the woods, he searched the woods in a carpet-like manner.

The woods are not particularly large, so he completed the search in more than an hour, during which he caught 9 big rabbits and more than 20 small rabbits.

Entering the space, looking at the forty or so little rabbits in front of him, Jiang Xiaochuan had a headache.

This rabbit is too fertile, no wonder that Australia was flooded with rabbits.

There are too many rabbits, it doesn't matter if they are young now, they will take up space when they grow up.

If the chickens, ducks and piglets grow up, the place will be more crowded, and there will be very few places to grow food.

"Don't worry about it, just sell it when you can eat it. Don't worry about no one buying it. Besides, even if you can't sell one a day, you'll finish eating it in more than a month..."

Looking at the dry stove, it should be ready to cook.

Thinking of the promise to bring rabbit meat to my brother, I can't miss the appointment, but instead of rabbits, let's make braised pork. This estimate would make him more satisfied.

Picking up the piece of meat in the basket, Jiang Xiaochuan paused in his mind,

"Why did you think of buying such fatty meat? Shouldn't you buy ribs and lean meat?"

"Hey...it's probably influenced by this body's subconscious again."

In fact, Jiang Xiaochuan has not thought of another reason, that is, the needs of his body, which needs oil and water too much.

I didn't think about buying pork ribs subconsciously, but when there is no shortage of oil and water in the future, I don't need to eat such fatty meat.

If Jiang Xiaochuan's idea was heard by people of this era, it is estimated that he would be buried and killed.

Who buys meat these days is not the fattest one. Those with a hard relationship even only buy fat, and don’t bring any lean meat.

Put away your thoughts, get ready to cook...

In an instant, he was dumbfounded, this person, sometimes his brain really can't cover everything, especially some details.

Where to cut vegetables without buying a chopping board?

You need a pot for cooking, but not for cooking?

Don't you need a knife to skin a rabbit?

Cut meat without a kitchen knife? Do you use a hatchet?

Is the water saving in the clay pot barely enough? Well, if you don't eat it cleanly, you won't get sick. No, this idea is unacceptable.

Buy a small water tank too.

Forget it, cook the rice first, then cook the meat later.

To prevent not enough food, I cooked two catties of rice at one time. If it is made into rice, it will have three or four kilograms.

Including my mother, one person has more than a pound, and the food should be enough.

ignition

to cook

Although not very skilled, but still lit the fire.

There is no shortage of firewood in the woods, and the rice is cooked in the pot, and when I find time, I gather some firewood and put it in the space, which is enough to cook more than a dozen times.

Putting the firewood away, he saw a few water snakes with their heads chopped off in the corner.

"I actually forgot how many snakes there are."

Worrying that it will break if left for a long time, I was about to throw it out of the space, and leaned to the side to smell it, "Hey, why doesn't it smell?"

He is a little strange. The time in the space is obviously much faster than the outside world. If you add one night yesterday, even if you leave it for a normal day, it will still smell.

Jiang Xiaochuan thought strangely, "Could it be that the space can still have a fresh-keeping function?"

He still decided to give it a try, and continued to put the snake into the space, and waited a few days to see.

Soon the rice is cooked. The rice was poured out, three bowls full of spiky.

Looking up at the space, now he is relieved, the smoke will run out of the space, and there is no need to worry about being smoked to death.

Leave the space after placement.

Carrying a basket full of pig grass, he returned home.

Back at home, a group of people were in the main room. Jiang’s father and Jiang’s brothers were sitting in the main room drinking water.

Without tea, tea is a scarce commodity in this era, and it is not circulated in the market, not even in supply and marketing cooperatives.

Grandma Jiang and her daughter-in-law, granddaughter-in-law, were packing their things.

I usually don't pay much attention to it. The food at home is so bad, there are still a lot of stocks.

A basket of eggs, a basket of dried beans, and some other dried melons. There are also some woven bamboo baskets, bamboo baskets.

He also knew what was going on with this basket of eggs and various dried vegetables. It was stored every two weeks and sold to the supply and marketing cooperative when he went to the market. It's good to change some needles and thread brains.

But where did this bamboo basket and bamboo basket come from? I've never seen anyone make this up before, eh?

Putting down the hogweed, he said to the mother who was cleaning up, "Mother, where did this basket come from?"

I was just curious and asked.

But some people couldn't see it. The third sister Jiang Weiying sneered, "This is what the second sister-in-law usually made up at home. Do you think they are just like you, and you know how to eat if you don't do anything?"

The second daughter-in-law next to her smiled embarrassedly.

It looks like another Yang Yuemei.

have to…

Questions can offend people.

Jiang Xiaochuan was also angry, he could offend this Jiang Weiying by doing nothing.

So he replied angrily.

"I didn't hit this pig grass, could it be that you hit it?"

"I didn't pick up the firewood with my brother. Could it be that you picked it up?"

Jiang Weiying instantly became angry when he heard his words, "Hey, hey... what's going on? I'm about to become a city person, and I'm becoming arrogant? Dare to talk to me like this, can I be the same as you? I don't want to learn?"

"Oh...I seem to be going to school today? Why didn't you go?" Jiang Xiaochuan sneered inwardly,

As far as she has been fishing for three days and drying the net for two days, whether she can get a graduation certificate in elementary school is a problem. There must be another reason not to go today.

Tomorrow's market, she will definitely follow. Not going again.

However, in this era, the city is better, and there are basically few truants, but it is different in the countryside. In the countryside, primary school is entirely voluntary. Nor is it mandatory.

It often happens that if you have to work at home and can't leave, you will not go.

Teachers are powerless to change anything.

Education is the foundation.

Because of economic problems, many children in rural areas do not go to school.

Jiang Weiying blushed a little when he asked this, and then scolded, "If you want to take care of it, how old are you?"

Jiang Xiaochuan said lightly. "My fifth."

Jiang Weiying was annoyed by his attitude, and then he shouted into the room angrily, "Dad...Look at Xiaochuan, he said me."

Jiang Dahai cast a glance, did not speak, and continued to drink his water, without having to shoot himself. Someone will pick him up.

I saw Jiang Lao Er stood up, walked to the door and scolded Jiang Xiaochuan, "You unfamiliar white-eyed wolf, you are going to the city, and you are standing upright? Do you want to clean up?"

Jiang Xiaochuan glanced at him lightly and then said,

"Did I say anything? I said I was working too. She didn't go to school. I just said it. I didn't beat her, and I didn't scold her? Why do I need to clean up?"

Then he said lightly to Jiang Dahai. "Father... If I don't leave my family, I feel that it's pretty good to live here."

That means, if I don't cooperate, you won't get a penny at that time.

Even if they were kicked out, they wouldn't get the money.

This remark made Jiang Weijun so angry, he rolled up his sleeves and prepared to start. "Whoa...you bastard, look I won't treat you..."

"Okay... rest." Jiang Dahai stopped the second child who was about to do it.

Hearing his father's words, Jiang Weijun stopped doing it, but his mouth didn't stop. "An unfamiliar white-eyed wolf who eats and uses family's food, dares to talk back"

In fact, Jiang Xiaochuan was still influenced by the thinking of later generations.

There is no such thing as domestic violence in these years. As long as there is no separation, you belong to this family. Even if you are beaten and maimed, no one will care.

The loss-making Jiang Dahai was afraid that he would not be able to get the huge sum of money, so he stopped it.

Hearing the words of the second child, Jiang Weijun, Jiang Xiaochuan did not say anything more exciting.

Don't get beaten up by then, you don't have a place to justify yourself.

Mother Yang Yuemei sighed secretly when she saw that Jiang Xiaochuan was not beaten. This is the sadness of remarriage. Females are weak, but mothers are strong. It is also case by case.

Grandma Jiang looked at the scene in front of her and pouted, thinking in her mind whether she should make less meals for the Jiang Xiaochuan brothers at noon today.

As soon as he walked back to his room, facing him, Jiang Xiaohe ran over and said excitedly.

"Brother...Brother...Where's my rabbit meat?"

Jiang Xiaochuan looked at the expectant eyes of the other party and couldn't help but want to tease him.

He pretended to be sad and said, "Oh...the rabbit didn't catch it..."

Just as he was about to continue teasing him, Jiang Xiaohe's mouth was shriveled. "Brother, you lied to me..."

He hurriedly comforted, "Hey...don't cry, the rabbit meat is gone, but I have pork."

Jiang Xiaohe, whose golden beans were about to fall, immediately held back his tears when he heard that there was pork. He asked with a smile, "Brother, really? Is there pork to eat?"

"Yes... but you're waiting for me here... in half an hour, did you go and find me in the cave yesterday? Don't come too early and don't take too long."

"Row…"

Seeing Jiang Xiaohe agree, Jiang Xiaochuan left. Before leaving, he took some cooking things and some water from the kitchen.

Come back in a while.

Came to the previous hole, looked around and entered the space.

Cut the meat quickly, put some oil in the pot, and then start the fire.

Light up the fire, put the cut meat into the pot and stir fry for a while, add soy sauce, ginger and spices, and simmer for a while.

Soon, the smell of meat came from the pot. This made him, who had never liked eating fatty meat very much, drool from being fragrant.

After being stuffy for a long time, put some salt and chopped green onion when the water is basically dry. Stir fry a few times.

Put a piece in your mouth, "Huh... it's really fragrant."

Jiang Xiaochuan was quite satisfied with his craftsmanship.

After packing up the things, the rice and the meat pot were brought out.

After waiting outside for ten minutes, Jiang Xiaohe trotted over.

"Sisi..." She sniffed the air and shouted excitedly, "Brother, it's so fragrant, wow rice."

Looking at the big bowl of rice and a pot of meat on the stone, I couldn't help myself.

Jiang Xiaochuan can understand the expectations of children in this era for meat. Don't be greedy for him, "Okay, let's eat."

Hearing his brother's words, Jiang Xiaohe picked up the big sea bowl and ate it.

The mouth was full of oil, and I was very happy. While eating, I shouted "Brother... It's so delicious, so delicious. I've never eaten such delicious meat before."

"Don't worry, eat slowly... so much"

In fact, when he was making meat today, he also wanted to put more Chinese cabbage, because he was afraid that he would not have oil and water for a long time, and suddenly eating such greasy pork would cause diarrhea.

But after thinking about it, this child is too short of oil and water. Even if he enlarges the cabbage, he will have diarrhea, so he simply makes a whole meat one.

Just pull it... it hurts and it's happy.

It is estimated that people in this era tell him that eating a bowl of meat will cause diarrhea,

It is estimated that they would rather have diarrhea than eat meat.

Jiang Xiaochuan was also very hungry. He picked up the bowls and chopsticks and ate.

"吭呧...吭吧..." Only the sound of eating was left in the cave.

"Don't eat it, save some for your mother." Jiang Xiaochuan was frightened by Jiang Xiaohe, a bowl of rice was dry, and half of the meat fell into his stomach.

If you eat again, there will be problems, don't hold back.

"Hiccup... Okay" Jiang Xiaohe looked at the meat in the pot and hiccupped with regret, feeling that he would never be able to eat such delicious braised pork again in the future.

Jiang Xiaochuan looked at his younger brother and said angrily, "It's not that I won't give you food, I'm afraid that you will break it if you eat too much."

Jiang Xiaohe didn't care, "I can eat such delicious braised pork. If it breaks, I'm willing."

Jiang Xiaochuan did not try to correct his ideas. If I can eat every day in the future, it will not be like this today. "Okay, I'll cook you a meal later. I'll leave the rest to my mother."

Suddenly Jiang Xiaohe was silent for a while and said, "Brother, I miss my elder sister. I guess she has never eaten such delicious meat...I wonder how she is doing?"

Jiang Xiaochuan was also silent, and he also knew about this sister with the memories of his predecessor.

This Jiang Xiaomei's personality is not like her mother at all, and she has a very hot temper.

When he first arrived at Jiang's house, in order to protect his two younger brothers, he fought with the third child, Jiang Weiying.

Because of this, I have suffered a lot. The reason why I agreed to marry and exchange for the dowry was also because of Jiang's father's words, "You have nothing to contribute to our family, so why should I support you."

In order to keep his two younger brothers safe in the Jiang family, he finally compromised and married the fourth child of the Li family.

Although the effect is not large, the two brothers must bear this love.

Jiang Xiaochuan thought for a while and said, "Then we will split up in a few days. I will take you to find your sister and cook her meat... By the way, let's see how she is doing at her in-law's house."

Hearing his words, his younger brother Jiang Xiaohe immediately said viciously, "Okay... If my brother-in-law's family bullies my sister, we will beat him when we grow up."

But with his child's face, how cute is it.

But what Jiang Xiaohe said was not wrong.

If the Li family treats Jiang Xiaomei well, I don't mind giving them some favors in the future.

In this era in rural areas, girls do not live well in their in-laws, and their parents are not allowed to intervene too much, but brothers and sisters are okay, and it is not surprising that they even fight.

Therefore, if there are many brothers, the girl will be better at her husband's house, and no one wants to make trouble at home.

An excuse to hide the pot and go out to sneak things into the space. The two went back together.
