Chapter 10 I didn’t cry

The pheasant weighed about one and a half kilograms after it shed its feathers, and was so skinny that it didn't have much meat. In their family of nine, each person couldn't even take a bite, so they might as well just make soup so that everyone could have a hot drink.

Jiang Yan took a look at the chicken in the mall. It only cost seven cents a pound. In other words, this pheasant, which weighed less than two kilograms, could be exchanged for a farmed chicken in the mall that weighed almost four kilograms. With this conversion, who else would she exchange it for?

Moreover, the meat of pheasant is very firm. If it is not cooked well, it will be difficult for most people to bite into it. However, farmed chicken is different. The meat is more tender and fatter. After all, it is scientifically raised, and the emphasis is on growing big quickly.

However, Xiaodouzi hugged the pheasant tightly, and it seemed that he would not give it to her for a while, so he had to find an opportunity to change it.

"Mom, everyone in the town likes these game meats. If you sell them, you can get a lot of money."

"If you don't want to change it, go home and kill it now. Make a pot of chicken soup and mix it with the chicken mushrooms you picked up. It tastes just right."

Wang Jinhua nodded, not daring to say anything more, but she couldn't help showing joy on her face. She hadn't eaten meat at home for a long time. This pheasant stewed soup. I wonder if my mother would give her a bowl of soup. If not,

...She was very satisfied with the smell of meat.

She laughed out loud in her dreams when she thought that her stomach had been full for the past two days. Mom, these past two days have been great... If this could continue like this, I would be willing to die.

When Xiaodouzi heard this, the image of his mother stewing chicken appeared in his mind. He couldn't help it any longer. He stroked the pheasant with his little hands and tears fell down.

Wang Jinhua was startled: "Xiaodouzi, why are you crying?"

Xiaodouzi opened his eyes wide and couldn't say a word. He could only hug the pheasant and walk forward. Grandma wanted to eat the chicken. If he didn't want to, Grandma would be as aggressive as before...

He didn't want grandma to become like before.

The child's emotions came and went quickly. After crying for a while, he was having fun playing with the pheasants.

The family simply packed up their things, and the four of them headed back home.

The two daughters-in-law carried baskets filled with chickens, mushrooms and various wild vegetables. There were only two baskets in the house, and it was impossible for the two daughters-in-law to let Jiang Yan carry them, so she walked in front empty-handed. There was originally a pheasant leading the way, but now

There are no more pheasants.

Looking at Xiaodouzi's bigger little basket, she thought about whether she should help carry it. After all, the little basket also contained a lot of wild vegetables.

It's just that the little guy didn't feel tired after walking so early in the morning. He ran so fast that he suddenly distanced himself from her.

Wang Jinhua looked at her mother-in-law quietly. Fortunately, she found a lot of chicken mushrooms today, otherwise her mother-in-law would definitely be angry.

The family went deep into the mountain, and walked for a long time before reaching the outskirts of the mountain. Along the way, they met many villagers. Her original reputation in the village was very bad, and no one knew her. The villagers rarely spoke to her when they saw her.

Saved a lot of negotiation.

When she first graduated and started working, what annoyed her the most was that as soon as the villagers saw her and returned home, they would ask questions. If she didn't reply, they would say you were rude.

Clear.

Jiang Yan was dizzy under the scorching sun and her whole body was sticky with sweat. She immediately drank three bowls of water when she got home.

After all, Xiaodouzi was young and would sit on the field ridge from time to time halfway through. Jiang Yan really didn't have the patience to wait for him, so she had to hold him while the three of them looked at her in surprise, otherwise she wouldn't be so exhausted.

"Mom, I'm going to boil water and bleed the pheasant and scald it." Wang Jinhua took the pheasant and prepared to go to the kitchen.

Jiang Yanzheng'er said: "You and Xiaomeng go and choose the vegetables and wash them, then boil a pot of hot water, and I will kill the pheasants." Then she turned back to the room, took out the remaining 6 kilograms of brown rice and handed it to Wang Jinhua.

"This is the only brown rice left at home. You can take it and eat it in three meals over the next two days."

Wang Jinhua was flattered as she carried the heavy rice bag. She couldn't imagine eating brown rice in the next two days.

And we only eat three meals, so much brown rice, that is, everyone can have a full stomach at every meal! This is such a waste!

Jiang Yan didn't have time to care what she was thinking. She was thinking about how to secretly replace the pheasants with the farmed chickens in the mall.

While the two of them were lighting the fire and choosing vegetables outside, Jiang Yan quickly picked up the pheasant and entered the kitchen. She closed the door and quickly replaced it with a three-pound farmed chicken. She raised the knife and dropped it, and the blood from the chicken's neck dripped on it.

In the bowl, it melts with the water in the bowl.

When the blood was almost dripping, he threw it into a wooden basin, poured hot water on it, and soaked it for a while before Jiang Yan plucked the chicken feathers cleanly.

Little Douzi outside the door looked pitifully at the closed wooden door with tears in his eyes. All he could think about was the image of a beautiful pheasant with its neck broken and its feathers plucked out.

"Mom, the dishes have been taken care of. You can take a rest and let your wife cook."

Wang Jinhua's voice was not loud, which made Jiang Yan tremble in fright. She didn't know why her mother-in-law was cooking, but she didn't dare to push it open when her mother-in-law closed the door.

Jiang Yan quickly put the drained chicken feathers on the red-hot stove, chopped the chicken, threw it into the pot, and then said: "Come in and clean the chicken intestines."

As soon as Wang Jinhua came in, she saw her mother-in-law holding a bag of chicken excrement and cutting it into slices. She quickly took the intestines and carefully turned them over to wash them.

For a family of nine, eating just one chicken is definitely not enough. Spicy chicken gizzards are delicious, but there seems to be no chili pepper in this place. Jiang Yan can only settle for the next best thing: stir-fried chicken gizzards with mushrooms and stir-fried wild vegetables.

"Mom, I'm back."

Lin Bei shouted and put down the firewood on his body. Jiang Yan looked back and saw that each of the three younger sons was carrying a bundle of firewood. Lin Feng was the youngest and carried the least, but the bundle of firewood was half as tall as himself.

"Xiaodouzi, why are you crying?" Lin Xi patted the little guy's head.

Xiaodouzi sniffed, wiped away her tears with the dirty back of her hands, and sobbed: "I didn't cry..."

I just think that I don’t have a chick anymore, and the tears will fall down by myself...

"Is it because Coyotito doesn't want to play with you anymore?"

"Are you at odds?" When Douzi didn't say anything, Lin Bei really thought he was at odds with Coyotito. After all, Coyotito was his only friend in the village.

"Third brother, if you are strong, go back to the well and carry water back."

"I know, mother, I'm going."

This poor family doesn't even have a water tank, so they just carry a load of water after it's used up.

"Xiaodouzi, why are you crying?" Jiang Yan looked at Xiaodouzi's little face that she couldn't bear to look at. It was stained with tears and soil.

She filled some water and wiped it for him: "Why are you crying? Grandma will give you chicken drumsticks later. Don't cry. Your eyes are a little swollen."

The twitching little Douzi nodded obediently, and her thin, out-of-shape little face looked even more distressing. She couldn't help but rub her oily little head.

"Grandma, I won't cry anymore..." Xiaodouzi shook his head, sniffing his nose to hold back his tears. Thinking of Coyotito eating chicken drumsticks, his saliva almost flowed out.

He has never eaten chicken legs, but he only knows that they are very delicious. Every time he watches Coyotito eat them, he drools, but his father won't let him eat Coyotito's chicken legs.

Jiang Yan discovered a very embarrassing thing, that is, there was no salt in the kitchen. If there was no oil, she could fry some with chicken, but the whole family knew that there was no salt, and she could not buy it in the mall.

"Mom, how about I go to Xiaozizi's house to borrow some?" Lin Bei said.

He is smart and quick-thinking, and he is very familiar with some families in the village. Many people are willing to talk to him more.
