After traveling through the book, I realized my wish in my previous life
Chapter 21 Dinner Party
The food was served on the table one after another, steaming hot and fragrant. Every dish embodied everyone's hard work.
Looking at the spicy rabbit meat, rabbit meat braised with radish, cabbage and rabbit meat stewed with vermicelli, fried bacon with chili peppers, steamed eggplant, and stir-fried cucumbers on the table, three of the rabbit meat dishes were served in bowls, and each portion was a large bowl.
Everyone sat around the table, their faces filled with joy and anticipation!
This meal is comparable to the Chinese New Year, and even the Chinese New Year may not be as sumptuous as this one.
Wu Ming looked at the huge table of food, picked up the pot beside him, and poured rice wine into everyone's bowls. "Come on, let's all have a toast. Thank you Comrades Shen Xiaoxia and Han Zhuxin for the meal, Comrade Hu Shixuan for the wine, and everyone who worked so hard. Come on, let's have a drink!"
"Come on, touch one!"
"Come on, let's go!"
"Come……"
Everyone responded, stood up with a smile, and clinked their bowls with each other.
"Wow, I smelled the aroma when it was cooking just now. Now I taste it, it's definitely the work of our chef Zhao Qi, spicy and strong enough!" Qian Donglai's first chopstick reached for the spicy rabbit meat, picked up a whole piece of meat and stuffed it into his mouth, praising it while chewing.
When everyone heard this, those who liked spicy food reached out for their chopsticks.
"Not bad!"
"delicious!"
"This sip of wine and this bite of meat makes me feel satisfied!"
Listening to everyone's praise, Zhao Qi felt very proud, "Thank you for the compliment! Thank you for the compliment! Hahahahahaha..."
Shen Xiaoxia couldn't eat spicy food very well, so she picked a smaller piece and tasted it. As expected of the Sichuan girl's cooking, it was too spicy and she could hardly bear it!
After all, it was meat. I didn't feel comfortable spitting it out in front of everyone, so I quickly picked up a piece of eggplant with chopsticks and stuffed it into my mouth. I chewed it a few times along with the rabbit meat and swallowed it.
Because she found that the more she chewed, the spicier it became!
Zhao Qi looked at her and joked, "Xiao Xia, you can't do this. You need to practice more." Pointing at the people who usually ate with her, "Look at them, they have all been trained."
Yao Sang rolled his eyes at her. "How dare you say that? Every time you cook, it's all peppers. It feels like there's not much vegetable in a dish. It's all peppers. It makes people's mouths hurt from the spiciness."
Many people nodded in agreement, saying that it was indeed the case, but they dared not speak out.
But later on, I got used to it. Sometimes, after a day of farm work, we didn’t have much appetite to eat, but eating something spicy was quite appetizing. After a long time, everyone actually liked spicy food.
Everyone ate and chatted. Some talked about interesting things about working in the fields, some talked about all kinds of gossip they heard in the village, some complained about the hardships of life, and some talked about the joy of seeing the harvest.
The meal lasted nearly three hours. At the beginning, everyone focused on eating, but later they gradually slowed down their eating and focused on chatting.
Everyone put aside their usual frictions, estrangements, and quarrels, just for the chance to be together at this moment, joking and laughing, feeling each other's warmth and smiles.
I thought I wouldn’t be able to finish the food, but in the end, all the food was eaten up!
Including the staple food, there was not a single grain of rice left. Everyone was so full that they didn't want to move and said they didn't want to have dinner.
This simple yet joyful dinner is a memory worth cherishing for everyone during these difficult times!
By the time we packed up everything and dispersed, it was almost dark.
Everyone was still full, so there was no need to eat dinner.
After Shen Xiaoxia finished washing up and was about to go to bed, she remembered that she had not signed in for today.
【System, sign in! 】
[Successful sign-in, congratulations to the host for receiving 100 yuan in cash. ]
Shen Xiaoxia happily put the money into the cash box specially prepared in the space, and then climbed onto the kang to sleep.
Today is a happy and satisfying day. Many people have their lips curled up in their dreams.
On the last day of rest, Shen Xiaoxia planned to go to the mountain to watch the sunrise. She was interrupted last time and didn't get to see it. This time she wanted to go again and chop some firewood while no one was around and put it in the space for future use.
He got up early as usual, washed up in the space, and tiptoed out of the Youth League Home.
We followed one of the paths up the mountain, and the fresh air from the forest hit us, mixed with the fragrance of soil, grass and trees.
Halfway up the mountain, I found an open space extending from the back of a big tree, which was just right for watching the sunrise.
Shen Xiaoxia didn't continue walking up the mountain. She found a large flat rock nearby, moved it to the back of the tree, and put it down against the tree.
He sat down on the stone, took out a glass of water from the space and drank it, then took out two meat buns that he had packed from the state-owned restaurant last time for breakfast.
The mountains were silent in the early morning, with only the occasional mountain breeze blowing, causing the leaves to rustle and bringing a hint of coolness.
Shen Xiaoxia emptied her mind, and the nouns belonging to the night quietly faded away.
The sky grew brighter, and the mountains and villages in the distance became clearly visible.
Gradually, red clouds appeared on the horizon, which was a sign that the sun was about to rise.
Shen Xiaoxia felt her own steady heartbeat and watched the red glow in the sky gradually become brighter and more numerous.
Finally, at a certain moment, a bright golden-red color suddenly jumped out from the clouds, and half of the figure poked out, as if a naughty child was peeking into the secrets of this world.
Soon it began to climb rapidly upwards, and the light instantly spread everywhere. The surrounding clouds were rendered more beautiful, and the earth was shrouded in golden light, exuding new vitality and strength.
Shen Xiaoxia looked at the rising sun and felt a silent sense of pride in her heart. The darkness is always temporary, and the dragon will eventually take off and illuminate everything.
Shen Xiaoxia didn't leave until the sun was high in the sky.
Walking through the mountains and forests, Shen Xiaoxia's eyes searched everywhere, looking for the dry tree trunks that had fallen on the ground and the dead branches that were suitable for cutting.
I walked and stopped along the way, picking up and cutting things, and was lucky enough to come across a big tree that had withered and fallen to the ground.
Shen Xiaoxia first cut down all the branches, then cut them into sections of suitable length and piled them in a corner of the space.
The trunk of the tree was too thick to be cut down in a short time, so Shen Xiaoxia put it into the space and planned to cut it slowly when she was free.
At noon, I didn't go back. I went into the space to eat a box lunch, rested for a while, and then continued to collect firewood and chop dead branches.
When you feel tired, take a rest, then continue picking up and chopping.
The things stored in the space before, plus what I picked up and chopped today, have piled up into a small hill, enough to last the entire winter.
In winter, the kang has to be burned all day long, otherwise people can’t bear it!
What's stored now is enough, but firewood is a consumable. Shen Xiaoxia plans to store more in her spare time, both in the space and in the supplies that are needed on the surface, just to be prepared.
Shen Xiaoxia was extremely grateful for the blessing of the skill pill "As Powerful as an Ox", otherwise she would have had to spend a long time to chop down the tree trunk, let alone the thin branches.
Thanks to the system boss!
When I think of the system, I think of signing in. I haven’t signed in today.
【System, sign in! 】
[Successful sign-in. Congratulations to the host for receiving a pair of wild rabbits, two pheasants, and 20 pheasant eggs!]
Wow! Wild game! Great! Shen Xiaoxia happily accepted the signed-in supplies.
I took out the hemp rope, tied two bundles of firewood and put them on my back. Today we had a good harvest and it was time to go down the mountain.
