Escape from famine: Daddy stands up, Dali girl lies down
Chapter 27 A night market with a unique flavor
Lin Shu was lying on a straw mat in the house, feeling dazed, with Baozi sleeping beside her with his legs spread out.
He smacked his lips from time to time, savoring the mutton he had just eaten.
Lin Shu wanted to use a bucket of water to take a bath but was told that bath water would only be provided for a fee after the tavern closed.
She asked for a pot of tea, but her mouth was filled with the smell of dust after taking a sip, which almost made her spit out the mutton she had just eaten.
"Shu'er, go to sleep."
When Lin Erzhuang came back from the toilet, he saw his daughter's eyes moving around, so he picked up a fan and fanned her.
"After the sun goes down, Dad will take you to see the sheep."
"Dad Lin, mutton is so delicious. It would be even better if we could eat beef." Lin Shu murmured with her eyes closed.
"Little greedy cat, it's good to have mutton to eat.
Killing working oxen is a serious crime, don't mention it again.
We'll stay here for a few more days so you can eat your fill before leaving." Lin Erzhuang said helplessly.
There was no one selling beef in the entire Tongfeng Town, so where could he get beef for his child?
I thought it would be convenient to buy beef in the border town, but it turned out to be just as difficult.
The man with a few coins in his pocket finally felt frustrated that he couldn't buy anything with money.
"Mutton offal soup, grilled lamb skewers, braised lamb heads and lamb trotters..." Lin Shu said with her eyes closed.
"Okay, okay, I'll buy it for you as long as I have it." Lin Erzhuang said with a headache.
He had never even heard of the names of these dishes, so he could only ask at each restaurant.
Lin Erzhuang looked at his third son who was sleeping like a pig on the kang with some disdain.
[You little brat, you promised to take care of your sister, but after you had enough to eat and drink, you slept more soundly than anyone else. ]
Lin Erzhuang leaned against the door, fanning himself occasionally.
After my daughter fell asleep, I dozed off with my eyes half closed.
He stretched his legs to block the door, and would wake up immediately at the slightest movement.
...
The sun sets in the west, tired birds return to their nests, and yellow sand billows.
"Mee~Mee~"
A large herd of white sheep entered the town, bringing with them gusts of sand and leaving a trail of sheep droppings wherever they passed.
"Mee-mee~Mee-mee~"
The scorching town was suddenly awakened by the flock of sheep.
People who lived in seclusion during the day came out of their homes one by one, and some set up stalls on the street.
Fat sheep were pulled out from the flock one by one, and the buyers and the shepherds negotiated the price hand in hand.
With just a shake of the head and a nod, the deal was reached between the two parties.
Standing in the backpack, Lin Shu felt as if she had returned to the modern era.
When I saw the sheep being slaughtered and roasted on the rack, my whole body was boiling with excitement.
Roast the whole lamb!
This is the authentic roasted whole lamb, even in the hot summer.
But being able to eat such delicious food on the spot made the trip worthwhile.
Thinking of the ice-cold beer in the refrigerator, Lin Shu became even more restless.
"Dad Lin, go, go, roast a whole lamb!"
Lin Shu wiped her saliva and said impatiently.
The mutton offal soup that she had just coveted was already forgotten by her.
In Tongfeng Town during the day, it is hard to see a single person.
I didn't expect the nightlife to be so rich. The so-called curfew is pure fiction.
"Wow~"
The steamed buns, which could only be smelled, jumped around in the basket anxiously, drooling.
"Let's go and eat roasted whole lamb."
Lin Erzhuang's heart was filled with turmoil. Seeing the whole roasted lamb reminded him of the meat-eating scene in his dream.
I once thought that I would never dare to eat meat in my life.
But when the meat is placed in front of them, they will still eat it without any hesitation.
...
The three men and the dog entered the night market and roamed around freely like fish in the sea.
Not only did they try all the local delicacies, but they also packed a lot of them into their Qiankun bags.
Roasting, stewing, braising and boiling are all related to mutton, but it is rare to see a stall selling staple foods.
Sheepskin is cheaper here, a sheathed sheepskin costs only fifteen cents.
Lin Shu waved her hand and bought fifty sheepskins.
...
At midnight, the night market closes.
The father and his two sons returned to the inn with a great harvest. When Lin Shu saw the small half bucket of bath water bought for ten cents, she gave up immediately.
Not only was the water turbid, it also had a strange smell, and it was obvious that it was not clean water.
Lin Shu lay on the couch until two snoring sounds were heard, then she slipped into the space with Baozi.
As soon as he entered the cool and comfortable environment, Baozi rushed into his bathtub and played in the water happily.
Lin Shu walked around the field and found that the seedlings were already half her arm's length. Next time she came in, she would put up racks for the cucumbers and green beans.
When I see watermelon seedlings, I always feel like something is missing.
Looking around, one could occasionally hear one or two pig grunts in the silent space.
"Bee~" Lin Shu patted her head lightly.
Behind the fog are not only bees, but also poultry that are so fat that their butts are shaking.
It’s a pity that I can only meditate on it and can’t even take a look at it to satisfy my craving.
"Ah~"
Lin Shu sighed, put her hands behind her back, and went back to take a shower, shaking her head.
Also, a big piece of ice watermelon and a plate of strawberries.
After setting the alarm, I had a good sleep. It was such a wonderful day that I couldn’t ask for anything else.
With food and drink, Lin Shu has become content with the current situation.
As the saying goes, when enemies come, we fight them with soldiers; when floods come, we block them with earth.
There is nothing unacceptable about fleeing famine, just treat it as a free trip.
...
The night market in Tongfeng Town made Lin Shu linger.
Every time I eat from the beginning to the end of the street, the stall owners will greet me warmly when they see me from afar.
Big eater.
It can be said that everyone in the entire night market loves her and everyone will take the initiative to save the best parts for her.
"It's delicious. Order twenty buckets of mutton offal soup."
"It's delicious. Order twenty roasted whole lambs."
"Okay, order twenty pots of braised lamb heads and lamb trotters."
"Order twenty pots of boiled mutton."
"Order two thousand skewers of roast lamb."
"Twenty pairs of sheepskin boots."
"Twenty water bags."
……
The orders came in one after another, making the stall owner so happy that his eyebrows were wide open and his voice could be heard throughout the night market.
Seeing this, other vendors took the initiative to promote their own products.
Over the next few nights, Lin Shu spent nearly two hundred taels of silver at the night market.
The neatly arranged rows of food in the Qiankun bag are so fragrant that they can make people dizzy.
Before leaving, he bought one hundred sheep and a mule.
The backyard of the tavern suddenly became an Aries pen.
The overwhelming bleating sounds and the strong smell of sheep can easily send people away.
Lin Erzhuang was worried about the sheep all over the yard, so he spread a straw mat under the corridor at night and placed a sharp axe beside him.
...
The crescent moon was setting in the west, and a group of dark shadows were rapidly approaching Tongfeng Town.
The unsheathed scimitar flashed a cold light.
"Woo~woo~"
"Enemy attack!"
Lin Shu, who was sleeping in the space, suddenly opened her eyes.
Hearing the shouts and screams getting closer and closer outside, he quickly got dressed and slipped out of the space with an iron rod in hand.
Baozi, who was unable to go out, was so anxious that he jumped up and down and cried out, but she automatically blocked his calls.
"Pah~, Third Brother, wake up quickly and don't make any noise."
Lin Shu calmly woke Lin Hongqing up and quickly ran to collect the sheep in the yard into the space ranch.
"Shu'er, come with Dad."
Lin Erzhuang heard the sounds of fighting getting closer and closer, and he was so anxious that sweat covered his forehead.
He pulled Lin Shu and ran into the stable, completely forgetting that his son was still in the house.
“Dad Lin, the mule cart is too big to be used.
Don't forget the third brother."
As he said this, he rushed into the stable and put away the carriage and mule.
Lin Erzhuang slapped his head in annoyance, went into the house, grabbed his son and ran away.
At this time, Lin Hongqing was at a loss.
The little boy, who was only ten years old, was so frightened by the sounds of fighting that his whole body was shaking, and he could even smell the blood in the wind.
He was so frightened that he forgot to cry and even forgot to run for his life.
