Under the large bare locust tree at the entrance of the village, Li Tiangui, wearing a gray cotton-padded jacket, stood alone, looking at the road ahead.
When Ranzi came back at the beginning of the year, he donated 70,000 yuan to the village committee. Later, the village raised another 50,000 yuan, and a total of 120,000 yuan was collected to rebuild the gravel road. Now the road is smooth and smooth, which is good.
After walking a lot, there are no longer as many potholes as before, and even the tractor has a hard time running...
"Uncle Tian Gui, what are you doing standing outside in the cold weather? Why don't you go home and eat." A villager passing by said hello.
"Nothing, I'm waiting for someone. I'll go back in a while." Li Tiangui replied absentmindedly, still staring at the intersection ahead, for fear of missing it.
Twenty minutes later, as the horn sounded in the distance, a small green truck appeared in the field of vision. Looking closer, you could see white plastic boxes stacked on top of the truck.
Finally waiting, Li Tiangui hurriedly ran to the middle of the road and stretched out his right arm to wave to the oncoming car.
The car gasped and stopped not far in front of him. The door opened and a dark-faced man in his thirties got out.
"Are you Uncle Tian Gui?" the black-faced man asked.
"It's me, are you the big shot that Ranzi mentioned?" Li Tiangui nodded in agreement.
"I'm Daniu. That's great, Uncle Tian Gui. It's getting dark, and I'm afraid I won't be able to find him." Feng Daniu said happily.
"It's cold outside. Let's go home first. If anything happens, we'll talk about it when we get home."
Li Tiangui said, and with the help of Feng Daniu, he got into the cab of the truck. The truck restarted and drove towards the village under Li Tiangui's command.
After a while, the truck arrived outside the yard of Li Tiangui's house in the north of the village and stopped.
"It's right here. Go in first and have a warm meal. It's ready-made, and then have a good rest. I've prepared the room. The quilts have all been dried during the day." Li Tiangui enthusiastically explained.
"Uncle Tian Gui, don't be too busy. We are all casual and can have a full stomach. Just have a place to sleep." Feng Daniu said a few polite words quickly.
The three of them got out of the car. Li Tiangui pushed open the courtyard door made of pine boards with bark and walked in with the guests.
The courtyard gate and earthen walls are still the same, but the three large tile-roofed houses inside have been renovated. But it is just a renovation, and the general appearance is not much different from the original one.
In fact, Ranzi sent him a lot of money one after another, but he was reluctant to spend it first, and now he didn't want to make it too eye-catching. He just added a few new pieces of furniture and household appliances to the room.
Half an hour later, Li Tiangui and his wife, Feng Daniu and Xiao Dai, sat around the square table in the center of the main room, enjoying the delicious and steaming farm food.
"They're all home-produced food. Nothing else, just good food. Come on, Daniel, try this spicy chicken. This is the chicken that my family raised specially this year. It's your aunt's specialty. Let's see how it goes." Li Tiangui
As he spoke, he raised his right hand to signal.
This is a plate of red and oily spicy chicken, with the dry aroma of chili peppers and the fresh aroma of chicken mixed together. After driving for a long time, Feng Daniu and Feng Daniu, who were cold and hungry, couldn't help but twitch their index fingers when they saw this.
Saliva suddenly flooded his mouth.
"Uncle Tian Gui, you're welcome." Feng Daniu said, picked up a chopstick with chopsticks, and put it into his mouth.
Numb, spicy, fresh, and fragrant. This dish can be described in four words. The local chicken is indeed different from the chickens in the city. The meat is delicious, has a good texture, is elastic, and chewy. The more you chew, the more flavorful it becomes.
"Hiss, it's delicious. This chicken is just different. And the cooking skills are also very good, almost as good as the chefs in our restaurants." Feng Daniu praised while chewing, and the dry chili pepper made him inhale.
I quickly dug out two mouthfuls of rice and pressed it.
"It's really delicious. It's much better than the chicken in supermarkets in the city." Xiao Dai also took off her chopsticks.
"Haha, this chicken grew up eating insects, grains and vegetables. It didn't even feed a single bite of finished feed." Li Tiangui couldn't help but smile when he saw the two of them eating deliciously.
Aunt Tian Gui was so happy that she pursed her lips when Feng Daniu praised her craftsmanship.
"Daniu, Xiao Dai, would you like something to drink? The weather is cold and warm to warm you up." Li Tiangui said as he stood up and took out a bottle of white wine from the chest of drawers.
Aunt Tian Gui also placed the washed small wine glasses on the table one by one.
"Such a good dish, I really need to take a few sips. Look, oh, Tianhai Daqu, Uncle Tian Gui, your family's living standard is pretty good, this wine costs more than 100 yuan a bottle." Feng Daniu took the bottle and used
The screwdriver opened the bottle cap and poured a glass of wine for everyone.
Ranzi's second uncle and second aunt are really enthusiastic, he thought to himself, and gradually relaxed, no longer restrained like family members.
"Where is it? It's not the beginning of the year yet. Ranzi brought a box back and kept the rest except for the gifts. The old man couldn't bear to drink it and kept it like a treasure until now." Aunt Tian Gui explained.
road.
"Hey, why are you talking about this?" Li Tiangui glared at his wife with dissatisfaction. This old woman always talks a lot.
"Haha, it turns out that Boss Li is the one who is filial. Xiao Dai, you're even more welcome. Come on, Uncle Tian Gui, Auntie Tian, I'll give you a drink." Feng Daniu raised his glass to invite him, and then drank it all in one gulp.
In addition to spicy chicken, there are other farm dishes such as fried beans with bacon, fried lettuce with eggs and fungus, green vegetables and tofu soup, and the taste is quite good.
Good wine and good food whetted your appetite. After a while, everyone was sweating from the forehead, and the winter chill was completely driven away.
After dinner, Feng Daniu asked Xiao Dai to help Aunt Tian Gui wash the dishes, while he and Uncle Tian Gui discussed the purchase of chickens and ducks tomorrow.
"Daniu, don't worry about this. It's all a business deal, and I, the uncle, have to check it for him. I've checked from house to house these days, and there's no big problem with the chickens. In the afternoon, I
We have already notified those households and asked them to prepare. They will put them in cages and deliver them to you tomorrow morning. You can just inspect and receive the goods in my yard. I have already told you that the first five chickens to be caught are
No feeding is allowed within the hour, and little water is given. They are all honest farmers and can be trusted. However, the purchase price given by Zi is not low, so we cannot let him suffer a loss." Li Tiangui informed Feng Daniu of the current situation. --- Chapter
Instant update: "Uncle Tian Gui, thank you. We brought special plastic chicken cages in the car, and we returned their cages after weighing them." Feng Daniu was very happy. Uncle Tian Gui was very considerate, so it saves trouble.
too much.
"I also have a scale here, borrowed from the village committee. It has just been calibrated and it is very accurate." Li Tiangui continued.
After the two discussed the acquisition, Li Tiangui showed Feng Daniu the prepared private room and asked them to take a rest early.
