Chapter 17 The courtyard dam enjoys the shade

Memories are just a thought after all, passing by in a flash.

After returning home, it was naturally a lot of work. Wash the pig's lungs with clean water, put them in a pot, put the throat on the edge of the pot, and add water. When the water boils, the blood and water foam in the pig's lungs will come out of the throat.

When the tube overflows, grab a ladle and pour it out.

When the blood foam is almost gone, take out the pig lungs and wash them with cold water. Then cut them into small pieces with a knife on the cutting board. While cutting, the brothers have cleaned the pot and cut them.

Put the lung slices and white radish slices in the pot together, add water, add dried chili peppers, Sichuan peppercorns and ginger, cover the pot and cook.

Wait for the water to boil, turn down the heat, and simmer slowly. Simmer until the radish is rake, add an appropriate amount of salt, and stir it in the pot a few times with a spoon.

Take off the pot, open the door, put in the pot, and add vegetable oil. When the oil is cooked and smoking, add ginger, garlic, pepper, chili pepper, stir-fry until fragrant, add the cut pork ribs, and continue to stir-fry until the meat on the ribs is tender.

If it is white, put the chopped potato pieces, stir-fry briefly, add an appropriate amount of salt and water, and cover the pot.

To ensure a uniform flavor, you can uncover the lid of the pot, flip it, and then close it again. When the rich aroma comes out and the soup thickens, it is ready to serve.

"Pork ribs braised with potato" and "pork lung stewed with radish" were scooped out on the table, and then three bowls of rice were served. The chopsticks were flying. A wonderful dinner was carried out happily.

After eating and packing up, we went to the courtyard to chat and enjoy the cool air.

Xiaojie and Brother Jun told me many things that they thought were fun and interesting. They also asked me about my job after graduation. I told them that the school’s dispatch certificate was issued to the Jingshan Personnel Bureau.

Tomorrow is Monday. I will catch the bus to Jingshan tomorrow morning and hand in the dispatch certificate first.

Everyone also said that Mother left in a very hurry. The grains and rice in the fields have not been harvested yet. It will only be harvested in a few weeks. What should we do with the three of us? Should we call you to come back?

receive?

I asked my brothers if they were afraid of the hardships and tiredness? They all said they were not afraid. I also said that as adults rush back from Chengdu, the round-trip fare is also expensive, and the money earned from working time is lost in the time of coming and going, so I shouted

It's not cost-effective for them to come back. Although there are many grains in the field, they are very scattered. We can break them off piece by piece. For the largest piece of land on the dam, we can break it off together and put it by the road, leaving someone to guard it.

, we borrowed someone else's cart to pull it. As long as we broke the corn back, we closed the door and slowly tore it apart. This process of breaking corn only takes three to four days of hard work. We can break off the furthest corn on the mountain first.

In the recent afternoon, when it gets dark, you can break it off, starting from far to near, and finally break it off on the dam.

As for the rice, we need to ask the village neighbors for help. We need to buy a few packs of cigarettes, cut a few kilograms of meat, and prepare tofu. We also need to prepare some food. We will have steamed buns and pancakes for breakfast and some boiled water. We will also provide lunch.

Go in to eat, take a break and continue working, so as to save time on the way back and forth. You must eat meat, but you can't drink alcohol, otherwise you will get drunk, and you will also be given some apples, pears and water; eat meat for dinner and drink alcohol first.

Harvest dry fields, then paddy fields, and the remaining two small fields depend on the weather. If the weather is good, everyone will help to work for a while and then harvest. If the weather is bad, it doesn’t matter if it rains. We will harvest slowly by ourselves without any problem. Wait for harvesting

If someone needs to pay back what they have given us, we will go and pay it back.

After hearing my arrangement, my brothers felt that it was not difficult, but they still lacked confidence. I continued: "We are all teenagers. We have to learn to grow up slowly and cannot always rely on adults." Then

I also told some "inspirational stories" about how "poor children can become parents early". Finally, I told my brothers that when the food harvest is over, I will lead them to dig medicinal materials in the mountains to make money. When we earn money, we will buy table tennis balls.

and snacks. As soon as I said this, my brothers’ energy and fighting spirit inspired me.

In fact, these are just my own imagination. After all, I have never done it independently, but I always have to face things.

Unknowingly, the night was already deep. We dispersed. The brothers went to sleep looking forward to the beauty of collecting food and digging medicinal materials to earn money. But I was confused about reporting to Jingshan tomorrow. I didn’t know what would happen.
