Chapter 32 Dealing with the Booty
The children and Li Jiahao came back in more than an hour. Because everyone had trophys in their hands, they were particularly relaxed when they came back, and even the Chen siblings were not called tired.
When I returned to my third uncle's house, my third aunt and grandma saw that everyone had brought so many spoils, and smiled and said, "You are still very powerful."
The children all ran to Li Jiahao's yard to play, because there were adults at home in the San Aunt's yard, and the play was not so good. In Li Jiahao's yard, the children were domineering. At this time, the little elephant also came over and didn't see the arrival of the children for a day. The little elephant felt very boring when slapping the children alone. No one came to feed them, so the little elephant ate grass in the yard by itself. Seeing the children coming back, the little elephant also came to play. It rolled the children one after another with the elephant's trunks. The children shouted happily and smiled. The childish voice spread far and far away. Li Jiahao didn't care and let the little elephant drink the children to play.
Li Jiahao and Professor Chen were sorting out their own spoils. Professor Chen picked up the mushrooms he picked. Anyway, he couldn't finish them tonight, so he picked them up. When his son came to pick up his grandson on Sunday, he could take them back to the city to eat. These wild things are still rare in the city. After picking the mushrooms, he started to pick his monkey leg vegetables, picked off the old leaves, and clean the soil of the roots. After picking the monkey leg vegetables, he started to sort out his bamboo shoots.
Li Jiahao was peeling the snake skin. Today, Xiaodian and Xiao Whirlwind caught the snakes not very big, only a little over one meter, probably at most a little over a pound. After peeling the snake skin, the snake galls were eaten raw, and then boiled boiling water and scalded the snake skin. He prepared to make a cold snake skin, washed the snake skin and cut it into pieces, and stewed the snake soup later. Aunt San was boiling water.
After the snake was washed away, the children ran to Aunt San’s yard and made a fuss. They were tilting their heads to see how Li Jiahao pulled out the pheasant. The main reason was that the Chen brothers and sisters insisted on coming. Who hadn’t seen the children in the village?
"Uncle, keep the beautiful pheasant feathers for me and I want to take them home to give them to my good friend." Chen Jiayi said with a smile.
"Okay, no problem, I'll keep it for you." Li Jiahao said with a smile.
Li Jiahao brought a plastic bag and put the beautiful pheasant feathers in the bag, while Chen Jiayi helped him carry it. Li Jiahao put a few Chen Jiayi into the plastic bag. "Uncle, these pheasants are so beautiful. I like them. I will give them to my good friends when I go to school. They will definitely like them very much." Chen Jiayi said with a smile, as if she had gotten some treasure.
"Uncle, look at how beautiful my bird is. Can you make a bird cage for me later? I will take it home to raise it." The little guy Chen Renjie pulled Li Jiahao and said.
"Okay, I'll make one for you with bamboo later." Li Jiahao said with a smile. He is really busy now. The pheasant has not yet plucked her hair, and now he has taken another job as a birdcage.
Li Jiahao pulled out the feathers of pheasant, opened the intestines and broke the belly, washed them and placed them in a basin.
Aunt San and grandma are preparing to cook.
Aunt San washed Professor Chen’s monkey leg vegetables and prepared to make fried pork with monkey leg vegetables. When stir-frying monkey leg vegetables, you must stir-fry on high heat, and it does not take long to stir-fry it, so that it can maintain a crispy and tender texture. There is no need to add a lot of seasonings to maintain a green and refreshing taste.
Grandma washed the fresh bamboo shoots and made them into slices of fresh bamboo shoots.
Li Jiahao cleaned the pheasant and then had to deal with the hare again.
Seeing the hare, Jiahui ran over and said, "Brother, this is delicious. We will go up the mountain tomorrow to specialize in fighting hares."
"You little girl knows how to eat, but you don't know how to do things. If you don't do your homework, your third aunt will scold you again later." Li Jiahao said with glaring at Jiahui's eyes.
"Brother, why are you the same as my mother? Humph, isn't there still a day tomorrow? You're not in a hurry." As soon as he finished speaking, the girl Jiahui ran away.
Li Jiahao shook his head and said there was no way. He thought that it was the same when we were young. He knew how to play during holidays and didn’t want to do his homework. He waited until school was about to start and tried hard to do his homework. Li Jiahao could understand that they were all experienced people.
Li Jiahao took the rabbit and stripped off the rabbit's skin. It was a pity to throw it away anyway. To be honest, I don't know what it is for keeping it. Wash the hare, cut it into pieces, put it in a basin, and make a stone mushroom and hare soup later. Li Jiahao used to drink this soup. It tasted mellow and tender, and it was cool and detoxified, nourished blood and middle-aged.
The children also contributed the stone chicken they caught. Anyway, the children often eat this thing, and it is not very rare, but the children in the city are different. Besides, after eating so many snacks from the siblings, it is still okay to contribute a few stone chickens. Li Jiahao took the stone chicken on a plate and handed it over to Aunt San and Grandma. He was only responsible for handling it himself, so he should leave the cooking matter to Aunt San and Grandma.
After dealing with everything, Li Jiahao washed his hands and handed all the ingredients to Aunt San and Grandma to cook. He and Professor Chen moved a chair to play chess in the yard.
Li Jiahao's chess skills are not very good, but they are still careless. Professor Chen's chess skills are still good. They were well arranged in the Chuhe Hanjie realm, and neither of them knew how the other party's craftsmanship was. After a few games, Li Jiahao always lost. Sometimes it was Li Jiahao who deliberately asked Professor Chen to do so because he didn't want to lose Professor Chen's face. After all, he was a guest. After a few games, Professor Chen seemed to see the clues and said with a smile: "Jiahao, please be honest with me and use your abilities to me, don't let me do this."
Li Jiahao smiled and said, "It's not that I give in to you, but that your chess skills are good, I can't beat you."
"You've come to me less, can't I see you? You're giving in to me everywhere." Professor Chen said with a smile.
"No, my chess skills are really not good. There is an old man in our village. He likes to play chess the most. He can ignore food when playing chess." Li Jiahao said.
"Oh, is that right? Then I have time to go and have a chance to talk with him." Professor Chen said in surprise.
"That old man is a little weird. He doesn't like to communicate with others. He is always alone. He just seems to have changed when playing chess. He only smiles when playing chess. He usually has a tense face. The children in the village call him a weird old man." Li Jiahao said.
The more Professor Chen listened, the more curious he felt, the more he thought he would meet that old man.
"Actually, that old man is still very pitiful. A son fell into the river and drowned when he was eight years old. His wife left in the sadness and lived alone in the village for decades." Li Jiahao said, thinking about the weird old man.
"Then I must go and have a look. If I have time, I will play chess with him." Professor Chen said.
"Uncle, don't play chess anymore. Make a bird cage for me, you promise me." Chen Renjie ran over and pulled Li Jiahao's clothes and said.
"Oh, sorry, uncle almost forgot, I'll do it for you now." Li Jiahao said as he was about to get up.
"We haven't finished this game yet, you're leaving." Professor Chen shouted.
"Then even if you win, the child asked me to help him make a bird cage. I can't break my promise." Li Jiahao said to Professor Chen with a smile.
"What does it mean to count? I clearly won this game." Professor Chen pointed to the game and said.
Li Jiahao did not speak, but took Chen Renjie to make a bird cage.
After a while, a refined bamboo bird cage was ready. Chen Renjie looked at his refined bird cage and felt so happy. Li Jiahao put broken cotton and soft grass in the bird cage again. The bird was obviously unhappy in the cage, which was much inferior to the empty sky.
The children were all taken home by their parents and went home for dinner. Aunt San also came over to call everyone for dinner. The meal was so hearty tonight, including fried shredded pork with monkey leg vegetables, fresh bamboo shoots and meat slices, braised stone chicken, yam snake soup, stone mushroom hare soup, mushroom and fungus. Everyone ate particularly sweet, especially the Chen siblings, as if they hadn't eaten for a long time, and they ate a lot of dishes. They kept shouting that they would go up the mountain to hunt tomorrow. Professor Chen was so relieved to see the children eating so sweet. At home, parents chased them with bowls and couldn't even eat much.
