Doujia Gelao is a place name.

In fact, the administrative plan here should be called Shilipu Commune, No. 5 Production Team.

The production team that went to Saibei seemed a little different from Bashu: because here the villagers lived together in groups.

Therefore, a large village in the past had a total of 3,400 people, all of whom were classified into the same production team.

The production team leader’s surname is Dou, and his name is Dou Jiande.

This is an honest and somewhat over-the-top person. He is very kind and will not play any evil tricks at all.

I saw him leading Luo Xuan, Zhang Xiaoli and others through the door.

He quickly asked his aunt to spread out some eggs and fry two handfuls of peanuts.

Come and serve drinks to everyone.

Lifting the door curtain, I saw a large group of people already sitting on the kang of the cave outside.

Production team accountant, militia leader, poor people's association leader, women's team leader, warehouse keeper

There were several other men and women whom Luo Xuan naturally did not recognize and could not remember them even after they were introduced.

Before the eggs and fried peanuts were spread out, they were put on the kang table.

Then someone picked up an enamel plate with both hands and walked up to Luo Xuan with a smile on his face: "It's only three days since I entered the door. After drinking it, my body will be warmed and my heart will be warmed!"

Drink as soon as you walk in?

Luo Xuan turned to look at Dou Jiande.

I saw the production captain smiling but not smiling, just nodding.

Luo Xuan raised the small wine glass on the plate and drank three glasses in succession.

The wine here is a little different from the Baogu wine in Bashu. The taste is a little lighter and the alcohol content is not that high.

I saw Luo Xuan drank three glasses of wine.

The accountant picked up the plate again and said, "Good things come in pairs, and the young man will become the groom sooner or later. We are all good men here, and they are good at drinking."

Coming again?

Luo Xuan turned his head again and looked at production captain Dou Jiande.

He still smiled but didn't speak.

Luo Xuan tilted his neck and drank three more glasses of wine. The wine glasses were very small, and it was estimated that a cup of wine cost only three yuan.

After six glasses of wine, it’s only about two taels, so it’s not a big problem.

The accountant picked up the plate again and kept urging him to drink: "Friends from three mountains and five mountains are here to get together, and I will serve the guests a plate of wine. The guests are very happy, and they drink a lot of wine from the plate!"

Still the same recipe:

Luo Xuan still turned to look at the production captain, asking if Dou Jiande could give him any advice.

Dou Jiande smiled slightly and said nothing.

There are a total of nine glasses of wine on an enamel plate.

After Luo Xuan finished drinking, the accountant patted Luo Xuan on the shoulder: "Good young man! Please go sit on the kang and keep yourself warm."

Refill the plate with wine,

Accountant Li Guangdao brought the wine on the plate to Peng Yong again.

But this time his words to persuade him to drink were different from before.

It seems that Accountant Li is really an expert at persuading people to drink.

The words that come out of his mouth are always the same, making people feel indebted and confused.

After serving Peng Yong the wine,

Accountant Li then brought it to Zhang Xiaoli.

Zhang Xiaoli learned from Luo Xuan and Peng Yong: every time Accountant Li persuaded her to drink, she would definitely turn her head and look at the production team leader Dou Jiande standing at the door.

This time,

Dou Jiande, who had been smiling and silent, finally spoke, "Woman, you can just touch your lips, that's all."

Accountant Li glared at Dou Jiande, "You're a boss! I usually see you dead everywhere. Why are you talking so much now?"

Zhang Xiaoli smiled slightly, raised her glass and drank!

Sitting on the kang,

Seeing this, Luo Xuan, who was holding a handful of melon seeds while knocking them there, not only glanced at Zhang Xiaoli worriedly.

"Come again!"

Zhang Xiaoli put down her wine glass and said, "This wine is quite fragrant."

She wiped her lips and didn't wait for Accountant Li to persuade her to drink.

He reached out and picked up another line of wine from the plate.

Pour straight into your mouth.

After all the wine on the plate was poured into her mouth, Zhang Xiaoli made a "gudong" sound.

Swallow all the wine in one gulp!

Accountant Li was overjoyed, "This woman is amazing! Yimanjie can't explain it in words, but she looks like Lisa when she drinks! She is as bold as a woman from Inner Mongolia!"

Others sitting on the kang applauded.

Dou Jiande smiled slightly and said, "Comrade Zhang Xiaoli, go to the kang and rest! Wait a minute, let's eat mutton stew."

It turned out that it was to entertain Luo Xuan and their arrival.

The production team has already slaughtered a sheep, and the mutton alone weighs over 30 kilograms!

No wonder Luo Xuan saw a large group of people in the cave as soon as he entered the door.

At that time, Luo Xuan was still surprised: He only had a small family background as a production captain.

We can't afford to entertain so many people for dinner!

Even Dou Jiande pretended to be fat and forced to treat so many people to dinner.

From now on, the life of Dou Jiande's family will definitely not be easy. He will suffer from famine because of today's generosity.

After talking for a long time, it turned out that they were waiting here to eat mutton stew!

The weather in Saibei is cold.

The outside of the cave dwelling is equivalent to a natural refrigerator. If the sheep killed in advance are placed in a cool place.

It won't break down if you leave it for ten days and a half, or even a month.

The mutton was simmering in the pot.

The very, very delicious aroma of stewed mutton permeates the cave dwelling.

The atmosphere at the wine table was lively.

Everyone's attitude towards Luo Xuan, the three educated youths who came from afar, is respectful and curious.

The militia captain asked, "Hey, Comrade Luo Xuan, do you people in Bashu eat rice?"

Luo Xuan nodded, "That's true. If you occasionally eat some pasta, it's for breakfast."

Sometimes we eat noodles at noon or in the evening, but this is rare. If we eat noodles for several days in a row, not many people can bear it."

The militia captain laughed and said, "It's just the opposite here. If I eat rice for several days in a row, I will feel that I have no strength."

Zhang Xiaoli was curious, "Excuse me, uncle, what kind of staple food do you usually eat here?"

Dou Jiande replied, "I eat more millet, millet, pasta, corn and mainly potatoes."

Accountant Li smiled and said, "There is a saying that without potatoes, people in Tuocheng will not be able to cook."

The northern part of Saibei is bitterly cold and the crop yield is low.

For thousands of years, this area has been suffering from food shortage.

Since the introduction of potatoes in Saibei, the food shortage here has been slightly alleviated.

But still.

The hard-working and extremely resilient Saibei people have made countless tricks out of potatoes.

As soon as we got in and had a drink, the atmosphere on the Kang became more intense. Everyone didn't take a sip of the food and wine, but they each drank a few large jugs!

After a while,

The fried eggs cooked by the captain's wife are served.

Because everyone is short of oil, they dare not use oil to fry eggs. They can only use a brush to brush a little oil on the bottom of the pot.

Then keep turning the eggs so that the eggs are "spread" cooked.

Now there is only a plate of melon seeds and a plate of raw peanuts on the small kang table. It is said that this is in the name of "official business" for the production team.

Peanuts specially "appropriated" from the storage room.

Apart from these two plates of snacks used to decorate the facade, the only thing left was the plate of eggs that had just been brought to the table.

It can be considered as affordable and a real dish to go with drinks.
