Chapter 4【】The first meal

  The pheasant is stronger than the poultry, and Yu Wan had to find something to tie it with its thumping.

   But Yu Wan searched for a long time and couldn't find any tools in the basket. Finally, she took out a red head rope from her arms.

   "I still have this in my pocket." Yu Wan raised her eyebrows and took the red-headed rope to tie the pheasant without saying a word.

  Yu Wan tied a sailor's knot, the more the pheasant fluttered, the tighter the red-headed rope became. In the morning light, it was a little startling.

   Yu Wan hummed a little tune and left the vegetable field with the pheasant.

   Along the way, she tried to recall information about the village or the dynasty it belonged to, but unfortunately could not recall anything.

   However, seeing that there are almost all thatched cottages at the foot of the mountain, and there are only 20 or 30 households in total, Yu Wan felt that this village was really poor.

The village is located between two hills, there are large tracts of farmland, the farther west, the more desolate and uninhabited, and their family lives in the westernmost part of the village - in front of the door is a fairly flat open space, Yu Wan remembers The old house in the country in the previous life also had such a piece of land. Everyone called it a dojo.

When    entered the house, Little Iron Dan was already awake and was clumsily dressing himself. No matter how capable he was, he was still only a child under six years old, and the winter clothes were heavy, so it was really difficult for him.

   The woman on the bed was still awake, her breathing was shallow, and her pale complexion was more transparent than yesterday.

  Yu Wan put down her backpack and walked into the house.

   Little Tie Dan finally put on his last shoe, and when he saw Yu Wan, his big watery eyes lit up: "Sister!"

  Yu Wan glanced at his bulging body, stepped forward and straightened his trousers, and tucked his shirt into his cotton trousers. Just as she was about to ask him if he was sleeping well, a loud rooster croak came from the main room.

   Little Tie Dan was stunned for a moment, then ran out excitedly, and the surprised voice couldn't wait to hear: "Sister! Is this a chicken? Where did you get the chicken? You went to town? Did you buy a chicken?"

  It's really noisy when children are excited.

"I didn't go to the town." Besides, there was no money to go. Yu Wan tucked the quilt for the woman on the bed and took the pheasant to the backyard, which was surrounded by a fence, with the house in front and the pigsty and stove in the back. Of course, there are no pigs in the pigpen.

   "I caught it on the mountain." Yu Wan said.

   "Did you catch it on the mountain? Sister, you are amazing!" Little Iron Dan said with admiration in his eyes.

  Yu Wan took out the empty bowl and bleed the chicken with a knife.

   Little Tie Dan was not afraid when he saw this scene, he squatted on the ground obediently without blinking.

   "Is it for us?" he asked.

   "Of course, who else would you give it to?" Yu Wan said.

   Little Iron Egg hesitated.

Yu Wan felt that her brother was a little weird. She was busy cooking, but she didn't take it to heart. She soaked the chicken in hot water and began to pluck the hairs. , she doesn't like to eat radishes.

   Suddenly, she turned her head, and her eyes fell on the rows of bamboos behind the stove.

  The color of moso bamboo is green and green, and the bamboo stem has inconspicuous gray-white markings. It should be three to five years old. Bamboos of this age are most suitable for digging bamboo shoots.

   "Sister, what are you looking at?" Little Tie Dan asked suspiciously.

  Yu Wan didn't say a word, put down the plucked pheasant, found a shovel and walked towards the bamboo.

   Little Tie Dan didn't know what she was going to do, so he followed up.

  Yu Wan walked back and forth in the bamboo field, suddenly squatted down, and used a shovel to plan under a bamboo, and cut out something sharp, the size of a sweet potato.

   "Really." Yu Wan smiled.

   "Sister, what is this?" Little Tie Dan asked curiously.

   Yu Wan said happily, "Winter bamboo shoots."

   "Is it okay to eat?" Little Tie Dan asked again.

  Yu Wan curved the corners of her lips: "Of course."

   is not only edible, but also very delicious and rich in nutritional value.

  After digging up the bamboo shoots, Yu Wan gently fills it with soil so that it will continue to grow in the coming year.

   There are not many bamboos here, and there are not many, but not every one has sprouts. After Yu Wan dug two trees, she finished work in the sound of Xiao Tidan’s hungry cooing.

  Yu Wan peeled and washed the winter bamboo shoots, cut them into slices, chopped the pheasant into pieces, put the internal organs aside, and fry the chicken pieces and winter bamboo shoots over high heat, then simmered over low heat.

Yu Wan rarely cooks. To be honest, her cooking skills are not superb, but she can't stand the ingredients. However, after a while, the rich chicken aroma mixed with the fresh bamboo shoots floats out layer upon layer, stimulating Yu Wan pervasively. Senses with brother.

   Little Tie Dan was drooling with greed.

  Yu Wan opened the lid of the pot, scooped a piece of chicken and wanted to hand it to him, he shook his head hurriedly, swallowed and said, "I-I'll wait for A-Niang and A-Jie to eat together!"

   "Okay." Yu Wan didn't refuse. After covering the pot, she said to the little iron egg, "I don't have enough garlic sprouts. I'll go and pick some from the field."

   "Then I'll guard the chicken!" Little Tie Dan said with a serious look.

   Yu Wan chuckled: "Okay, you guard the chicken, don't let anyone steal it."

   This is a joke with Little Tie Dan, but as soon as she goes out, someone really thinks about the chicken in her pot.

  The person who came was none other than Zhao Heng's biological mother.

   After Awan threw herself into the lake that day, Zhao Heng rescued her immediately, saying that she had fallen into the water, and even Zhao's own mother didn't know the truth.

  Awan was in a coma for several days, Zhao thought she would not survive, but the neighbor said she saw Awan, so she hurried to the door to confirm.

   "Awan, are you awake? You really are! Don't tell me when you wake up, Heng'er has to pay the repair money again, hurry up and give the money-"

   Zhao entered the room as she spoke, and halfway through her words, she paused.

   What scent is this?

  Why does it smell so good? !

   Zhao rushed into the kitchen in a hurry.

   Little Tie Dan saw her face for a moment, and his little face suddenly darkened.

   Mr. Zhao didn't even look at the small iron egg, and lifted the lid of the pot. When she saw the big pot of golden soup and stewed chicken, her eyes suddenly glowed green!

   She can't remember the last time she ate meat, ten days ago? Half a month ago? This dead girl, Awan, is incompetent. She can only eat meat once or twice a month, and all of them are pitiful. God knows that she is dying of greed for meat!

   There is a big pot here, a big pot!

   Mr. Zhao excitedly put down the lid of the pot, opened the cupboard, took out a clean earthenware pot, and scooped up the chicken in the pot as a matter of course.

   Little Tie Dan angrily grabbed her hand: "Sister said, this is for us to eat! You are not allowed to take it!"

   Zhao snorted: "Your elder sister is my daughter-in-law, and hers is mine! When will it be your turn to eat?"

   Damn girl! After getting such a good thing, I don't know how to use it to honor her, but I secretly hid it in the house and stewed it! Fortunately, she was here, otherwise this big pot of chicken would have been eaten up by these plagued people!

   "Get up!" Zhao scolded.

   "I don't!" Little Tiedan hugged Zhao's hand tightly.

   Zhao shi got angry, he waved his hand vigorously, pulled out his arm, pinched Xiao Tie Dan's face and said fiercely: "What are you? You dare to care about my mother? Believe it or not, I'll beat you?!"

   Little Tie Dan's face was red from the pinch, and stared at her with his hands on his hips: "You beat me! You beat me!"

   "You, you kid!" Zhao shi raised his hand.

In normal times, Mrs. Zhao would have beaten this disgusting little beast, but the chicken in front of her was so fragrant that she couldn't wait to bring it back to eat with her son and daughter, so she was "Great Mercy and Great Compassion" He let go of the small iron egg, threw him out, and turned to scoop the chicken in the pot.

   She scooped a pot of chicken clean, not even a chicken neck left.

  Thank you all (^.^)
