While the bamboo rat was still dizzy, Li Chengji killed it with a hoe.
Three large bamboo rats with brownish-gray backs, similar in shape to rats, each weighing about four pounds.
Li Chengyi said regretfully: “A few of them ran away, and it would be great if I could catch them all?”
“What are you thinking? It would be nice if you could hold it.”
The three brothers and sisters covered the bamboo rat with bamboo shoots, put the basket on their backs, and hurried home.
Li Chengji went to fetch water, while Li Xiaoyu and Li Chengyi handled bamboo shoots in the courtyard dam.
Some soaked sour bamboo shoots, some dried bamboo shoots, and some fried.
Tomorrow, you can pick up more bamboo shoots to come back, dry them into dried bamboo shoots and save them for winter consumption, the more the better.
After picking up the water, Li Chengji squatted in the corner of the courtyard to deal with the bamboo rat.
Go back to the kitchen and blanch the three whole ones in boiling water, then salt them and put them on ice in a jar.
I’m going to wait for Father Li to come back in the evening before eating. It’s hot now and it’s easy to stink if you don’t handle it.
Looking at the fat meat that couldn’t be eaten in his mouth, Li Chengyi was in a hurry, and his lunch was no longer fragrant in his mouth.
Out of sight and out of mind, Li Xiaoyu and Li Chengyi went to pick bamboo shoots again in the afternoon.
In order to save more food, the two of them also fought hard, and they moved home as long as they could eat.
A lot of bamboo shoots were piled up in the courtyard dam, and the brothers and sisters stood under the eaves and didn’t want to move. Grandpa Li felt distressed.
“Don’t go, you won’t be tired any longer.”
Grandpa Li moved a stool and sat down to handle bamboo shoots.
Father Li was very happy to see bamboo rats when he came home. The child is older and he knows how to get food at home. This is good!
He split a bamboo rat in half, and asked Li Chengji and Li Chengyi to send half to the family of Li Da and Li Erpa’s house respectively.
Li Chengji came back empty-handed, and Li Chengyi came back with a few potatoes in his clothes.
A large pot of potato braised bamboo rat, a pot of vegetable soup, and vegetable porridge.
The meat is firm and tender, and it is finally eaten in the mouth.
Yummy, delicious! Li Xiaoyu is determined to catch more bamboo rats next time!
The strong aroma of meat wafts all over the village along with the cooking smoke.
Several villagers sniffed the fragrance and cursed their mother indignantly.
“Damn, who has money to burn so hard that they eat meat every day and keep people alive?”
At the same time, Dafang: “Who can eat so much food? How stingy!”
Second room: “The life of the fourth brother’s house is getting better and better. There is often meat to eat, and we can still get some light!”
After the meal, they cleaned up and washed up. The three brothers and sisters gathered around the table to study, while Father Li, Ma and Li Xiaoyan dealt with the bamboo shoots they brought back.
Looking at the face of the family finally had some flesh, the complexion also showed a healthy rosy, the hair was no longer withered and yellow, and it was shiny, and the two brothers also grew a little taller.
Li Xiaoyu seems to have improved the food during this period and the transformation of the well water in the space has played a big role.
She has to fight to eat more meat!
Continuing the morning exercise on the second day, Li Chengji has been able to finish a set of boxing skillfully.
Boxing generates wind, kicking, hitting, and falling have a certain momentum.
I punched down, only to see a slight gasp.
Li Xiaoyu was secretly happy, haha! Is this the rhythm of becoming a master?
With examples, all of them are very motivated and want to become masters, and they have more confidence in practicing boxing.
Everyone unanimously decided that Lee Seung-sik would guide the practice every day.
From then on, Li Chengji began his teaching career as a “little master” with a stick in addition to practicing martial arts.
Li Ma, Li Xiaoyan and Li Chengji continued to build ridges for corn, while Li Xiaoyu and Li Chengyi continued to work on bamboo shoots.
There were voices from far away in the bamboo forest. It seemed that there were quite a few shrewd people, and they dispatched a large army in just one day.
Li Xiaoyu and Li Chengyi could only go deeper. Several boys from the big house at the top of the village saw the brothers and sisters going deeper and followed.
The brothers and sisters looked back, and those few pretended to look left and right.
Li Chengyi blushed with anger and cursed bitterly.
“shameless!”
Once the brothers and sisters stopped to grab the bamboo shoots, the older kids would follow and grab them.
Damn, people are weak! There will be nothing to gain today, the brothers and sisters simply go home.
Li Xiaoyu glared at these people, remembering you, I will definitely find a chance to clean up you next time!
