Chapter 19 Vigorous (Happy Double Festival!)
Danzengjeb and Zhashidava stayed in the evening, but the decoration workers did not stay.
The Bashu people who work and make money on the plateau not only endure hardships, but also abide by the rules. Even though Old Liu was kind enough to keep them, they still did not stay.
"It's not that they don't want to stay, they don't like food, nor do they like drinking and making friends. But compared to making money, they are more willing to get off work on time, eat and rest on time, because they know very well that there is still a lot of work waiting for them to do the next day." Seeing the workers disappearing on the Qinghai-Tibet Highway in the evening in the three vans they drove, Danzengjeb explained their behavior.
"These brothers have followed me for three years, and the longest has been seven years. They are all very obedient people, knowing what they want, what they can do and what they can't do. They often come up in mid-March every year, and then work until mid-December, and have to do nine months of work a year. Their family and young people point to the money they earned for nine months..."
Today, Danzengjeb seemed to have something to worry about and talked a lot.
Two smoked chickens that were opened were served on a plate. This is the main dish today. There are two other dishes, one is the boiled mutton brought by Zhashi Dawa. As for the third dish, it is the bag of five-spice peanuts that Lao Liu bought in Rikkong City before.
Green vegetables? Sorry, not yet!
This is not Sunshine City or Dangquka County. The price of vegetables in the city is not expensive, but the nearest vegetable market is 50 kilometers away. Although there are vegetables selling cars that specialize in the countryside every two days, the price is far higher than the price in the county. Therefore, vegetables are definitely considered luxury food here. Lao Liu has just been here for a few days and he has not bought vegetables.
The wine is the wine left by the second uncle, and the degree is very high, so Lao Liu can enjoy this thing.
Zhashidawa and Danzengjeb do not drink liquor much. Compared with liquor, they prefer to drink beer.
In fact, Zangzi likes beer more than white wine. Most Zangzi drink white wine and can’t be watched, but they are so fierce when they drink beer.
It’s not said that you can just pour beer, but as long as you drink beer, you can just come to the ten or eight bottles of Nikko beer at will.
Zhashidawa's father likes to drink beer, and his family has a lot of Suncity beer, so when Zhashidawa went back to get the meal, he brought four boxes.
Goubangzi roasted chicken became the target of Zhashidawa and Danzengjeb, and the pot of boiled mutton brought by Zhashidawa became Lao Liu's staple food.
Chicken is a lot in Lao Liu’s hometown, but it is rare on the plateau. There is no shortage of chickens in the vegetable market in the city, but chickens are rare in this high-altitude pastoral area.
In low-altitude areas such as Dongshan, chickens can make dozens or hundreds of different flavors of dishes, but here, a gougangzi smoked chicken can almost swallow their tongues when eaten by Tashidawa and Danzengjeb.
Although it was a bit exaggerated, Old Liu was speechless when they wanted to not even let go of the chicken bones.
However, Lao Liu was very interested in the stewed mutton brought by Tashi Dawa.
Zang Pi does not pay much attention to the taste of food, so they only pursue the ability to stew it in mutton or beef, and they rarely consider the taste.
It’s easy to say it when stewing beef, but stewing mutton is really delicious. After all, most of the sheep raised on the plateau are sheep...
But Lao Liu likes this taste very much, emmmmm... Isn't there a saying that it's healthier...
Because the altitude here is 4,600 and the boiling point of water is only 84 degrees, it is basically impossible to cook meat without a pressure cooker.
However, the cattle and sheep here are almost all natural and free-range, with fresh and tender meat, and it is not difficult to eat even if it is not cooked.
The three-quarter-cooked grilled steak that foreigners eat is not as good as the stewed lamb here...
The mutton was stewed by Tashi Dawa's mother. Although Lao Liu had never seen this old lady, Lao Liu has eaten many meals she cooked these two days, and the taste is really good.
The mutton is chopped into large pieces and stewed directly, almost half a lamb cavity.
Zhaxidawa lent Lao Liu the hidden knife he wore. Lao Liu used this hidden knife to slice the meat one by one, and dipped it in chili powder to eat it, which tasted unique.
The three of them drank a sip of meat and wine, and they were very happy.
Old Liu also completely let go, and the grief of the second uncle's death also decreased a lot.
The three of them were busy eating and drinking, and the white lion on the side was not idle either.
Tashidava brought a piece of half-cooked beef, some fresh beef and sheep internal organs, and two thick beef legs to the white lion.
The real native Tibetan mastiff is really fierce, and this can be clearly reflected in the white lion's meal.
The white lion’s favorite thing is undoubtedly fresh internal organs. As long as it is a carnivore, there is nothing that you don’t like.
Seeing Bai Lion swallowing a large piece of beef liver into her stomach, Old Liu was amazed. He had never seen such a vigorous way of eating it before.
Compared with the Baishi's food, although the buns at home are also large dogs, Xiumin is like a little girl.
"Haha, this is nothing. All the mastiffs here eat this way." Zhaxi Dawa quickly grabbed the last chicken thigh. While eating PIA Ji PIA Ji, he said vaguely.
"Our mastiffs eat meat every day, but we feed them half-cooked meat because we are also worried about parasites. However, half-cooked viscera are basically not eaten, they like to eat fresh viscera."
The white lion also swallowed another piece of bloody intestines, raised his big head and grinned at Lao Liu. The corners of his mouth stained with blood from the internal organs made the white lion look extremely terrifying.
"Come here, I'll wipe it for you!" Old Liu said with a smile. Bai Shi stood up obediently and walked to Lao Liu to sit down. Old Liu found a clean cloth to dip it in water and wiped the corner of Bai Shi's mouth.
Danzengjeb said: "Although dogs like to eat internal organs, they can't let them eat more. They can just feed them up to three times a week. Eating too much is not good for dogs."
After eating the internal organs, the white lion turned around and dealt with the half-cooked beef.
This piece of beef is two pounds, but it was filled into the stomach by the white lion.
Lao Liu is really unprecedented in eating such a vigorous way.
Including the internal organs before, Bai Shi almost ate a small five kilogram of meat for this meal. If she had changed to the buns at home, so much meat would have to make the buns die, but this was nothing to Bai Shi. And this was obviously not the limit of Bai Shi. This guy turned around and started to deal with the two beef legs again.
The thinnest part of these two cow legs is also a child's arms. If it is on the other side of Dongshan, it will be broken with an axe or a guillotine.
But as soon as the white lion took a bite, he heard a crisp "crack" sound, and the cow leg bone was bitten off by the white lion.
"Damn it! Who said that the bite force of the Tibetan mastiff is only seventy or eighty kilograms? Stand up, I promise not to beat you to death!" Old Liu was really scared by the bite force of the white lion, and he was using the alcohol to get angry.
Danzeng Jiebu smiled and said, "The Tibetan mastiff mentioned on the Internet is not the native Tibetan mastiff here. How can that kind of hybrid dog be compared with our king of plateaus? When the mastiff here fights with the wolf, it can bite the wolf's neck in one bite. It's just a ox leg bone!"
