Chapter 135 Pigeon Soup
When Wang Ronghua saw several birds fluttering around when the cloth bag was opened, she immediately started laughing.
"Mom, I want to drink pigeon soup." Zhao Shiying said.
"Okay, I'll make pigeon soup for you tonight." Wang Ronghua said with a smile.
"We will go up the mountain to hunt tomorrow," Zhao Shiying said again.
"Tomorrow is not possible? Tomorrow..." Zhao Shihui interrupted Wang Ronghua before she could finish her words.
"No, mother, we are going to the mountains with my uncle to hunt and pick mushrooms tomorrow. We have already agreed on it. If you don't have time tomorrow, you don't have to go. We can go." Zhao Shihui said.
"You are such a rascal, you know how to interrupt me. I haven't finished talking yet. Your uncle has never hunted before. You can't make things difficult for him. He will be back the day after tomorrow." Wang Ronghua said unhappily.
"Sister, it's okay. It's because we have to go back the day after tomorrow that we have to play with the little ones tomorrow. It just so happens that Shengzi and Huizi will go back with me the day after tomorrow." Wang Yueshan said.
"Okay, I really can't do anything about you, but I'm worried about you kids going there together. I'll let your father go with you tomorrow," said Wang Ronghua.
"Oh yeah, if Daddy goes with us, won't we be able to hunt more prey?" Zhao Shiying jumped up happily.
Everyone laughed.
Next it was time to slaughter the pigeons, but Wang Ronghua had to do this job. Wang Yueshan didn’t know how to do it, and the little ones didn’t know how to do it either.
After all the pigeons were slaughtered, Wang Ronghua began to cut them into pieces.
Zhao Guocheng came back at this time, carrying a bucket filled with water for the villagers to drink.
"You're back, why so early?" Wang Ronghua was surprised.
"I came back to fetch water. The water over there is all gone," said Zhao Guocheng.
"Yeah, just go and get it, it's inside the water tank," Wang Ronghua said.
The water given to the villagers was not boiled because everyone drank it directly. However, as there were many children in their family, Zhao Shiying only drank boiled water, so Wang Ronghua would boil water and let it cool before drinking it every day.
"Oh, what is this?" Zhao Guocheng looked at the meat on the chopping board in surprise and asked.
"Yue Shan took the children to catch quite a few pigeons, a total of nine, three of which were quails," said Wang Ronghua.
"That's great, it's a great harvest. Let them have a good meal in the evening." Zhao Guocheng said with a smile. It was really a pleasant surprise.
"That's right. They have agreed to go hunting in the mountains tomorrow. You don't have to go to the workshop. Just go with them. It's tiring for Yueshan to take care of so many children alone. Our daughter is a bit of a troublemaker. You have to go with them." Wang Ronghua said.
"Oh, I understand." Zhao Guocheng nodded.
After fetching water, he went to the workshop.
At this moment, the children have already started to collect mountain products.
Wang Yueshan came together to help.
Everyone was clear about the procedure. Wang Yueshan was responsible for registration and paying, while the smart Zhao Shiying was responsible for selection. The selection was so fast and accurate that the other people were stunned when they saw it.
The villagers in particular thought that such a young baby was so capable, no wonder the Zhao family doted on this child.
After harvesting the mountain products, everyone was very tired, and Wang Ronghua also came to help.
After harvesting the mountain products, we start cooking right away. The rice and soup have already been stewed.
People who came to sell mountain products had already smelled the pigeon soup a long time ago, after all, it smells like meat.
After asking, I found out that it was the birds that the children caught. The bird soup is really delicious.
So starting from the next day, a large number of people in the village began to catch birds.
As for what methods, some people use broken fishing nets, some people use the methods used by Zhao Shihui and others before, not to mention that catching one or two birds is still possible. Anyway, there are many methods, too many types, and the effect is also there, that is, fewer and fewer birds fly over Guxian Village, and the villagers eat meat more often.
Although the birds are small, they also have meat, especially if you catch pigeons, that's even better, a little bit adds up to a lot, and you can always have a full meal. Of course, this is a later story.
In the evening, after Wang Ronghua finished cooking, Jinbao and Tietou also came.
The two had wanted to come here for a long time. If they hadn't been forced to work, they would have come to the end of the village to help collect the goods.
But we didn't come empty-handed. Each of us brought five eggs, which was a small token of our appreciation.
Dinner time.
"It's time to eat. Everyone sit down." Zhao Guocheng sang, making everyone laugh.
It was the first time that Jinbao Tietou had such a grand meal at Huizi's house.
"Wow, the dinner is so sumptuous." Jinbao exclaimed.
"There aren't so many dishes at home during the Chinese New Year." Tietou exclaimed.
No wonder his father said that the food at Uncle Zhao’s house was fragrant and greasy, and he knew it must be delicious without even trying it.
"Don't be polite, let's eat quickly." Zhao Guocheng said with a smile.
After serving the meal, start eating.
"These eggplants and beans are delicious. Do you have beans and eggplants at home?" Jinbao was surprised.
"If we eat it today, it will be gone. It's too cold and we can't survive." Wang Ronghua said with a smile, so there were a lot of eggplants and beans in the evening, a whole plate.
"Hmm, so delicious." Jinbao couldn't stop eating.
"If you like it, eat more. There are no fresh eggplants and beans left, but I have dried a lot of them. If you like it, just come to my house for dinner more often." Wang Ronghua said with a smile.
"Aunt Zhao, I really take it seriously. You are really hardworking," Jin Bao praised.
"Your little mouth is as sweet as honey, and you're always good at coaxing your aunt. Come, eat more." Zhao Guocheng smiled and picked up a piece of braised pork for Jinbao, and then picked up a piece of braised pork for Tietou, telling them not to be polite and to eat more.
Tietou's mouth was already full of food, it was so delicious.
He envied his father so much. Uncle Zhao's workshop would take a long time to build, so his father would have to eat at Uncle Zhao's house for a long time. How happy he was. Tietou was envious to the point of going crazy. Why didn't he grow up a little so that he could come to Uncle Zhao's house to work and have a meal.
After the meal, everyone drank a bowl of pigeon soup, and some who were not satisfied drank two bowls.
You know, originally everyone was supposed to drink the soup first, but Zhao Guocheng was afraid that everyone wouldn’t be able to eat after drinking the soup, so today he changed it to eating first.
Jinbao and Tietou ate until their bellies were full.
Zhao Shiying's mouth was also greasy and shiny from eating.
"Wow, I feel so satisfied. I ate too much again tonight." Zhao Shiying touched her stomach which felt a little uncomfortable.
She ate a bowl of rice and a bowl of soup, and her stomach was about to burst.
Lying in the chair and not wanting to move.
"Hehehe~~~~ You guys, take a break and walk around to help digest the food." Wang Yueshan looked at Zhao Shiying lovingly.
