Chapter 17 Delicious

Yang He is preparing to hold a bonfire barbecue party tonight. He hasn't eaten meat for a long time, so I'll have a meal today.

There was originally a well in the Wukou ruins, but now it is silted. There are many ponds in front of the dike wall. The water is half-dry and undry, and the water quality cannot be reassured by Yang He, so he has to take it to the river to kill the wolf and peel it.

Yang He also decided to kill two wolves and peel them, and other important tasks were taken by hunter Han Daxia, and the rest belonged to the responsibility of women such as Zhao Zhongju.

In this era, eating meat was a big deal, let alone now?

Except for the staff arranged for the matter, the rest, regardless of age, went to watch the fun.

Yang He also followed, mainly because his younger brother and sister wanted to go to watch the fun. The group carried the wolf and laughed and laughed to the river.

The road was full of silt puddles, and it can be seen that the Sui River has been in great severe backflow to this tributary. The riverbed has been expanding to both sides of the bank. The dike outside the ruins may soon be buried by the river channel.

Although the stations here are piled up very high, I expected that in a few years, the abandoned houses above would be hidden under the mud.

Yang He and others arrived by the river and saw that the river had been blocked by half, revealing the severely silted riverbed.

This is also the scenery of Sui River, with mud, dirt and blockage. Since the end of Wanli, it has been difficult to sail on Sui River, otherwise it would have been easier to swim down the ship by one boat, saving a lot of trouble.

A group of refugees did not think as much as Yang He thought. They happily found a rocky beach with water and started construction directly.

On a wooden board he found, Han Daxia used a dagger to familiarly dissect the wolf's skin, decompose the five internal organs, and move the knife as if it were flying, making quick moves. Obviously, this hunter does not have one or two preys to process.

He also cut off the wolf's hooves and limbs with his waist knife and cut off the wolf's head. Zhao Zhongju and others were waiting, filling the removed wolf heart, wolf lungs, wolf belly and intestines with pots and pots. Even the wolf blood was unwilling to leak a drop. For the refugees, these intakes were also rare delicacies.

The rock beach was crowded with people, and the red and white meat made people drool. The refugees praised Han Daxia's kung fu, while laughing and talking about when they could eat meat and how much they could eat at most.

Yang He saw Han Daxia's skillful movements, and saw the two wolves peeled their skins, took out their internal organs, and chopped their heads and feet, as if they were not much flesh left.

In this era, the meat yield rate of pigs, sheep, dogs, etc. has never been high. Even in later generations, the meat yield rate of pigs is 70%, and there are even fewer sheep, dogs, etc.

Yang He remembered that he killed a sheep in later generations. He picked up more than 100 kilograms of pure meat and fed it for two months with ingredients in advance.

Fortunately, you can eat hoofs, pork ribs, pork belly, etc., and no one will dislike all the water. Even big bones can be made into soup and eaten.

Moreover, the wolf killed today is the wolf and the other strong wolf, with nearly 100 kilograms and about 70 80 kilograms. Even if there are many refugees, there are meat and bones, each person can eat two or three kilograms.

There is also a big bone mixed soup to drink, so today I will be extravagant.

Han Daxia was quick to move, and soon the two wolves were finished. He also had more wolf teeth and wolf thighs on his hands, and two complete wolf skins.

He handed the wolf teeth and wolf thigh stone to Yang He and said, "As the saying goes, men wear wolf teeth and women wear thigh stones. My husband can make this wolf teeth and thigh stones to the young master. If the young lady wears it, it can be used to exorcise evil and disasters. As for the wolf skin, it can be used for various functions after the young man is tanned and made into mature skins."

Minister Yang spread the wolf's skin and praised: "It's so skinny."

Yang He also smiled and nodded. The wolf skin was probably two meters long from beginning to end. The ears were burnt black, the cheeks were black, the hairs on the whole body were thick and thick, the tail was gray and white, and the pair of ears remained upright, which was indeed good.

He decided to use it as a wolf-skin chair after tanning it.

...

The wolf meat and five internal organs were cleaned, and everyone returned to the abandoned house with laughter and joy. Zhao Zhongju and other women built two fire pit racks and found a lot of firewood and hay as fuel.

Many of the firewood in this are wooden boards of doors and windows folded from abandoned houses, which is also the reason why most of the furniture of the abandoned houses in abandoned villages and various places disappears.

Everything was ready. Zhao Zhongju took out the fire stick stuffed around his waist, pulled out the bamboo cover, took some hay and placed it at the mouth of the bamboo, and blew it hard twice into it. The rekindled fire immediately ignited the hay.

She threw the hay into the rack, and immediately flames rose up, and wisps of smoke from the broken windows and tiles floated out of the broken windows and tiles.

Everyone sat in front of the pond and chatted and laughed. They saw Zhao Zhongju and others put the big iron pot on a fire pit, filled it with water, and then boiled it, and then chopped the wolf head, wolf hooves, and five internal organs into pieces. Although they fled, they still carried the kitchen knife.

There were also some thick willow branches that were cut. After burning in another fire pit, Zhao Zhongju and others hung the treated wolf skewers on the fire rack and barbecued them.

With the help of Han Daxia and his son, it can be seen that the two have very rich experience in outdoor barbecue.

Soon, the whole roasted wolf shone on the wooden rack with oil and emitting an attractive fragrance. The wolf crumbs on another big pot also boiled, and the strong fragrance also spread, causing everyone in the house to sniff.

At this time, Sun Zhaodi, Yan Dezheng and others who picked wild vegetables also came back.

As soon as Sun Zhaodi came back, her loud voice added more excitement to the broken house: "It smells so good, I can smell it ten miles away."

The men and women harvested a lot of wild vegetables. Zhao Zhongju and others took them and washed them, and then put half of the wild vegetables in the wolf bone mixed soup.

Yang He is preparing to eat wolf meat today. It doesn’t matter whether it is wild vegetables or wild vegetables. However, adding some wild vegetables can relieve the greasy and fishy smell of the meat, so it is still necessary to pick some.

A stronger fragrance filled the fragrance of wild vegetables, and everyone felt more hungry and fire. Yang He also felt saliva coming out of his mouth. It seemed that every cell in his body was longing and begging, and he couldn't help but smiled mockingly.

Later generations were no longer satisfied with the way of eating big fish and big meat. They should pay attention to eating green and healthy food. They are also pretentious and noble. If they don’t eat good rice, they should eat steamed buns, if they don’t eat fat chickens and ducks raised, they should eat thin local chickens and pigs, and they don’t even eat vegetables in greenhouses.

When I think this and that, I would never have such a degraded day, right?

How can people in the era who are extremely rich in materials understand the pain of people in this era?

I really want to eat meat. Although I had eaten rabbit meat a few days ago, I didn’t eat that little bit of it and it didn’t take long to finish it.

Looking at Qi Youxin, Yan Dezheng and others around him, they were all drooling, and Yan Dezheng even had his nose flowing down without knowing it.

"It'll be fine soon."

Zhao Zhong said with a smile on his face.

She took out a small bag of fine salt from her arms, poured a little into the pot, and then took out another piece of salt brick.

Han Daxia cut off the roasted wolf meat piece by piece with a dagger, and Zhao Zhongju wiped it on the salt bricks to make it salty, and then put it in bowls one by one.

Needless to say, this small bag of fine salt was given to her by Yang He, and the salt brick was generously contributed by Zhao Zhongju's family and was also very precious. Before the Yang family escaped from Luyi, not to mention the fine salt, but even the very coarse salt bricks, the price of a pound soared to two cents and three cents of silver.

This price is outrageous. In the early years of Wanli, when the salt price was low, the price of salt market was sold in Jiangsu and Zhejiang, and only three cents of silver per kilogram of silver per kilogram of silver per kilogram of silver per kilogram of Guangdong and Guangxi.

Fujian is the cheapest, with a dou of salt fifteen or sixteen kilograms. When it was expensive, it was worth four cents of silver, and it was only two cents of cheap. Now it is so outrageous.

Zhao Zhong made quick moves and quickly prepared everything. Yang He nodded secretly. He was indeed a woman who could live a life.

Qi Youxin also looked at his wife, with love in his eyes. I believe that after this trouble, the relationship between the couple will become deeper.

"My husband, give it."

Zhao Zhongju first handed a large bowl of roasted wolf meat to Yang He, which was fragrant and hot. This was the best part of the head wolf's body. The hind legs were fleshy, and the meat was abundant and tender, and it was one of the essence parts of the wolf's body.

Yang He noticed that she used chopsticks to rub the salt bricks a few more times. When she brought the bowl, she still had a lot of respect and gratitude in her eyes.

Perhaps in her heart, without Yang He's leadership, everyone would not have been able to eat meat today, and they might have suffered heavy losses under the attack of wolves.

Yang He smiled and took it. Things were mutual. If there were no refugees, it was still unknown whether he could escape with Minister Yang, his younger brother and sister today.

I handed over it again and found a large bowl of mixed soup, which was also fragrant and hot, making people hungry.

A bowl of wolf meat and mixed soup were distributed to everyone. After taking the bowl, no matter whether it was men, women, old or young, they all resisted their hunger and consciously waited for Yang He to speak. After this battle, Yang He's authority among the refugees was firmly established.

Yang He raised the bowl, had thousands of words in his heart, and finally said, "Eat."

When I first took a sip of mixed soup, the delicious broth entered my belly, and it seemed that every pore in my body was cheering. I ate another big mouthful of roasted wolf meat and let out a long sigh.

Delicious, comfortable and comfortable!

Rice is food, and meat is a higher food. People who often eat meat are also middle-aged and higher-level people.

Yang He secretly vowed that he would eat meat frequently in the future, even the people around him would be the same.

There was a rumbling sound of chewing and drinking soup in the broken house, regardless of gender, age, and everyone was holding the wolf meat with both hands and biting it desperately, regardless of hot or greasy.

Yang He didn't know that Yan Dezheng, an old boy, had a snot flowing until his feet, and he just buryed his head and ate hard.

Qi Youxin, the Ming Dynasty long, murmured while biting, "It's delicious... it's better than the one in Bozhou..."

Minister Yang had already put the red hat and military cap on his head aside and ate it without saying a word.

There are also women like Zhao Zhongju, Sun Zhaodi and others who don’t care about their reserve and demeanor, and bite them voraciously. They occasionally take a sip of the broth and swallow the pieces of meat in their throats.

Everyone was eating the meat and soup in their hands, and their eyes were filled with incomparable comfort and satisfaction.

It took a while before Yang He came to his senses and slowly ate the taste of the wolf meat in his hand. He felt that the meat was slightly thicker than dog meat, but the taste was better than donkey meat.

At this time, some thatched grass under him was in front of him, and there was a warm fire pit. There were also some thatched grass around him, either sitting on the ground or kneeling. He looked at Minister Yang on the right, and saw that he was holding the wolf meat with both hands, and still biting it silently.

Looking at the younger brother and sister on the left, the two children were eating and drinking, and their mouths were covered with oil.

He shook his head, took out a scarf, and wiped the grease from his younger brother and sister.

The younger brother Yang Qian was a little embarrassed and a little gentler. The younger sister Ying'er raised her head and grinned at Yang He: "Thank you brother."
