Chapter 551 Maturity
After each of them peeled a rabbit skin, the two brothers were led into the house. They could sleep separately or together. There were three guest rooms in the house, and Wei Yanqing and Jiang Dehai always stayed in one.
The two cousins went into their rooms to sleep.
The group of people in the yard started working hard. Rabbit meat is a delicious ingredient with high protein and low fat. Jiang Wen planned to make braised rabbit meat.
?412 dead rabbits, each weighing about one and a half pounds. After skinning and removing the internal organs, each weighed less than eight ounces.
But there are quite a few.
Gu Lixia had already planned it out beforehand. If anyone in the Revolutionary Committee wanted one, they would just pay for it normally, one yuan each.
Just come to Gu’s house to pick it up after get off work at noon.
Basically, 5 per person.
The Revolutionary Committee now has 77 people. If the four directors including Gu Lixia leave, the 350 rabbits will be gone.
62 left.
Gu Lixia meant the principle of voluntariness, and for the sake of fairness, everyone gave 15 each.
Gu Lixia paid 22 yuan.
Instead of taking the rabbit home directly, Gu Lixia asked Lin Duofu to call Wang Shuguo, Yang Jianping and Cui Ze.
When this technician wakes up, we must definitely treat him first, so that we can make the best use of him.
Cut the rabbit meat into pieces and marinate with cooking wine and a little salt for 10 minutes.
Heat oil in a pan, add rock sugar and stir-fry until melted, then add rabbit meat and stir-fry until browned.
Add ginger slices, scallion segments, peppercorns, and star anise and stir-fry until fragrant.
Pour in an appropriate amount of soy sauce and a small amount of water to cover the meat. Bring to a boil over high heat and then simmer over low heat.
Stew until the soup thickens, sprinkle with white pepper, stir fry evenly and serve.
A full pot of braised rabbit meat was taken out of the pot, scooped into a bowl and served on the table.
The cousins, who had slept soundly, looked at each other and smiled.
They ate meat and drank wine with big mouthfuls, and there was plenty of rice and meat, and both the host and the guests were very happy.
After dinner, without waiting for Lu Changzheng to speak, Wang Yuan started talking with a smile, "Which village should we go to first? My brothers and I have rested well and are full of energy. We can set off now."
"In this village, it's called Jiangjia Village. We have built a part in advance. Let's talk as we walk. The village cadres are very active. Let's go to the secretary's house first. The rabbit hutch in the secretary's house is made of cement..." Lu Changzheng and others led people out.
Wang Shuguo stood on the wall and notified the people from Zhangjia Village next door to come and learn.
Lin Duofu divided the remaining meat into three portions, put them into lunch boxes, and gave them to the families of the other three directors. It wasn't much, only about one and a half pounds, but it was a token of his appreciation. He couldn't spend the money and not get any meat at all.
The same went for the rabbit skins. Gu Lixia didn't want any of them and asked them to share them among the three families.
Lin Duofu went to deliver the food.
Wang Shuguo notified the villagers next door and then came back to help clean and mop the floor.
Gu Lixia felt like she was about to collapse from exhaustion.
I haven't had a sip of water in the past three hours this morning. My throat hurts from straining it, and now I just want to lie down and die.
Go to the bathroom and brush your teeth.
Said he needed to rest.
Go back to the room, close the door, draw the curtains, and enter the space.
I lay in the massage chair for half an hour.
I went into the bathroom and soaked for another 15 minutes.
I went back to the master bedroom and fell asleep.
It happens that today is Sunday, so I just need to get some sleep.
Gu Lixia slept until dinner time and didn't come out, which was not surprising to her family.
Wang Yuan, who had gone to Jiangjia Village and then Zhangjia Village in the afternoon, asked about it.
"It's okay. We'll talk about it when we're hungry tonight." Jiang Wen said this, and the two brothers politely shut up.
After dinner, wash up and go to bed.
Jiang Wen went to knock on the door, and the bedroom door opened. Jiang Wen pushed the door open and sure enough, there was no one on the bed.
Close the door and enter the space the next second.
Gu Lixia was sitting in the restaurant eating a small cake.
"Have you made the cake? Why is it so small? You only ate half of the 6-inch one? Did you just wake up?" Jiang Wen asked as he walked in.
"Well, I definitely won't be able to sleep tonight. Let me just eat first. I don't have much appetite." Gu Lixia put down her fork.
Jiang Wen took it and took a bite. "Don't keep thinking about someone causing trouble tomorrow. Do your best and leave the rest to fate. The rabbit is small to begin with, so how can there not be some accidents?"
"That's not it. Changzheng and his team are in charge of that. I'm thinking about something else. I'm wondering if these new village cadres can do the job. I'm planning to pay them a salary, 32.5 yuan a month, which is 195 yuan per village."
"It's only a matter of time. It's impossible for everyone to get a salary but not them, right?"
"No, it's the militia and those squad leaders who have nothing. Think about it, would you be happy with that?"
"The problem is that we don't have any money right now."
"That's right. The premise of economic development is not how many factories you open, but the retention of talent. When university construction is approved, that's when the opportunity arises."
"You have a useless headache now. It's better not to."
"Why don't you think about what to do tonight? You have nothing to do every day after eating."
"That can't be helped. I'm lucky. My wife is happy to support me."
"Oh. You're lucky, I think so too."
"sleep."
.........
It took the two cousins seven days to visit all the villages, and then they went to ask the people who bought the dead rabbits for dried rabbit skins and scraped the fascia.
Next, use saltpeter and sodium chloride, add millet flour, and soak it into a supersaturated solution according to the condition of the leather.
After teaching this step, the two brothers took the iron cages and boarded the train on the evening of the 7th.
There have been many families with dead rabbits in the past few days, and the village cadres have suppressed the problem.
Moreover, when the two brothers went to teach and set up a nest, with Lu Changzheng and Yang Jianping accompanying them, no one caused trouble.
The grapes on the vine are ripe.
Although he was watched every day, the child still had an adventurous spirit. First, Jiang Huaizhou picked one and fed it to Huaizhi. After eating it, Huaizhi wanted more.
Huaizhou also ate one himself and found it was indeed sweet.
He sent his younger brother into the house to get a basket and a plate, and he stood on the table and picked the big ones one by one.
By the time Jiang Huaizhi brought Jiang Xiu out, dozens of them had already been picked.
After washing it, I ate one and it was indeed sweet.
The children were so happy that even Jiang Wen, who often hid in the space to eat, felt the joy of a good harvest.
The trees in the Jiang family yard, apricots and cherries, are in bloom from late June to early July.
Grapes are in season from mid-August to early September.
The harvest time is from late September to mid-October.
Pears, apples, walnuts, sea buckthorns, and crabapples ripen in late September.
Hawthorn, kiwi and chestnut are in season from late September to early October.
Persimmons are in season from late October to early November.
The grapes in the yard were ripe, so Jiang Huaixi went to the former family compound on the bank of the outer river to see the grape vines. When he got there, he found that they were nothing like before. It was estimated that someone had picked them early, so the grapes were sparse.
Jiang Huaixi looked at it and didn't pick it.
I didn't tell anyone when I got home.
Instead, I listened to Jiang Wen and gave grapes to the colleagues and friends who came to visit me.
Jiang Huainan is too old to go to Xu Jiang's house.
It is naturally Huaixi.
