Chapter 126 Unfilial
"Okay, then I'll marinate the ribs first and add more flavor."
Li Kai came to the house, washed the ribs, cut them into pieces, and then mixed soy sauce, salt, MSG, white wine, green onion, ginger and garlic into sauce, spread a layer on the ribs, and then put them in a basin to marinate them. The white rice was carefully washed and then placed on the gas stove to start steaming the rice.
The current rice has a high "sand content". Sometimes it can even wash out stones as big as a thumb, which is completely different from the future "no washing rice". At most, use water to wash it.
Although the mountain was full of dry leaves and dead branches, Li Yan was worried that he would accidentally cause wildfires, so he brought a set of liquefied gas for Master Baifu, which was safer.
I washed some peaches and sweet apricots and brought them out to sit with Master Bai Fu to eat.
"Master Baifu, I'm going back tomorrow. I may have to find something for you before leaving." Li Kai carefully "takes off" the peaches in his hand. The heat is a little small and it's hard to peel.
"What's the matter? Tell me." Mr. Bai Fu gnawed peaches and muttered.
"I think you can help me raise some chickens, free-range chickens, roosters, hens, black chickens. Those from the chicken farms eat feed, but they grow fast, the meat is not delicious, and the eggs laid are not delicious, and they are not nutritious yet."
"That's right, the village gave us over 60 years old to each of us, one of them, which was not delicious, the meat was very frosty and not chewy. Grandpa raised it for you. In the future, we will eat our own chicken and eggs, so don't want them. By the way, why don't you raise two pigs?" Bai Fu's nodded and added a task to himself.
"Raising pigs will be ready next year. It's too late now and it won't be able to raise them by the end of the year."
"We can raise it, we don't want piglets, we want piglets, we will definitely let you eat delicious local pork by the end of the year."
Li Kai asked in confusion what a pig is. After listening to Bai Fu's explanation, he realized the difference between the so-called pig and pig. Pig is a pig raised by someone else's family in the early spring, and it is now a half-large pig three or four months old.
"Okay, then thank you grandpa."
"What's the hard work? Farmers raise chickens, ducks, pigs and dogs. That's not a matter of holding hands and pinching them." Mr. Bai Fu waved his hand without taking it seriously.
"Zhang Baifu, come and pick me up quickly, I'm so tired." The person who called out was an old lady who was about the same age as Master Baifu, and everyone called her Grandma Sun.
Grandma Sun is the neighbor of Bai Fu Ye, who lives in the village. Her husband fell from the mountain many years ago and broke his waist. He died after seven or eight years of bed. He only had one daughter in the family, and she had already gotten married and married in the village. Now her grandson is older than Li Kai.
"You said you are an old guy and you have to live on the mountain. You will be exhausted if you are going up and down this day." Grandma Sun handed the basket in her hand to Master Bai Fu, covering her waist and complaining.
"Good mountain, good air, good water, good health." Mr. Baifu took the basket, put it on the stone rock, lifted up the cotton cloth covering it, and opened the lid of the enamel basin inside, "Wow, good stuff."
There is an enamel basin in the basket, which contains most of the pots of "river fresh" and spicy frogs.
"Xiao Kai hasn't eaten it, try it. Your brother Xiaoyu got up early to catch it, but it was fresh." Grandma Sun said proudly.
Brother Xiaoyu is Grandma Sun's grandson, two years older than Li Kai. It's time to go to the second year of high school after school starts. Xiaoyu's grandparents have passed away, and after entering junior high school, they are following grandma.
"Thank you so much, grandma. I ate this thing when I was a child. I have long forgotten the taste. Today I want to satisfy my cravings." Li Kai took out the enamel basin, smelled it "feeling" and closed his eyes and shook his head intoxicatedly.
"Just like to eat, I'll let you brother Xiaoyu catch him tomorrow." Grandma Sun was also very happy when she looked at Li Kai's appearance.
"I like to eat, I like to eat, and the taste is super great. My taste is grandma, your skills, others can't make such a good taste." Li Kai pinched out a chicken leg and put it in his mouth, "Grandma, sit and chat with Master Baifu, I'll make lunch."
"Why are you doing that much? Xiaoyu doesn't eat it anymore. And it's so heavy, it's so hard to carry it up the mountain." Seeing Li Kai enter the kitchen, Baifu said to Grandma Sun.
"It's not too heavy for Xiaoyu. Don't forget that I was also a famous 'iron girl' in the village back then. What can I do if I carry this little thing?" Grandma Sun said indifferently.
"I'm also afraid that you will be tired. The mountain road looks not steep, but you are so old. If you catch a pothole, you will accidentally twist your feet."
"Worry about me?"
"Not worrying... it's not safe anyway."
"Then you go home and live there. How great is the house? You have to go to this place where rabbits don't poop."
"...The family is the same as here. I don't have any relatives anyway. At least there is Brother Biaozi here. I'll accompany him and he's with me. It's great."
"You."
Li Kai secretly poked his head out of the side of the door and watched the two chat.
These two people must have something to do, they are in love at dusk.
Grandma Sun didn't have lunch here, so she took a break for a while. She went down the mountain when sweat fell. Her grandson was still waiting at home. Master Baifu asked her to bring the remaining peaches and sweet apricots back for Xiaoyu to eat.
The lunch was very rich, and the two of them had a little bit of food. They didn't clean up the dishes and chopsticks and found a place to rest.
When Li Kui came, Li Kai had not woken up yet, and Bai Fu was already walking the mountain again.
Li Kai asked the fifth brother to invite a few people, and not far from the cemetery, surrounded by barbed wire, and raised dozens of chickens freely, including male and female, and a few black chickens. As for pig raising, let Mr. Baifu arrange it himself. Anyway, there is no need to dig a pigpen. Then, it will just spread it and let it run all over the mountains and fields.
"His dad, is Xiaokai here? I heard his name be called on the loudspeaker in the morning." Old Mrs. Li asked Li Zhenjiang, who was holding a bowl of porridge across the table and "sucking" around.
"Yes." Li Zhenjiang didn't even lift his eyelids and responded in a muffled voice.
"I don't know if I come to see us. No matter how you say that this is his grandparents, just like his mother, and they are not filial at all." Old Mrs. Li said hatefully.
Li Qianjin paused for a moment, then knocked on the two dishes on the table with chopsticks.
"Eat more, this is bought by your unfilial fourth daughter-in-law."
The old two’s lunch was not complicated. The steamed buns bought at the village market and cooked some millet porridge. The dish was a plate of salted duck eggs, and the dish was an open canned fermented black beans. In addition, there were a few washed vegetable leaves that could be eaten dipped in sauce.
Since Li Yao was scolded by Li Zhenjiang last time, he has not been so diligent. Only the two of them have eaten, but it is not as complicated as the meal. When Liu Fengzhiyue came back, she brought canned food and salted duck eggs. She said that Old Lady Li is old and cooking is too hard. These things are convenient and can be eaten by opening them.
"Tsk, it seems that someone cares about her little things. I don't miss her well, it's all my son's earnings."
"Then don't accept it."
"Why don't I accept my son's things?" Old Mrs. Li was confident.
"Your son doesn't earn much more than your daughter-in-law."
"No matter how much she earns, it's my son's. I'm eating my son's and drinking my son's is what's wrong with her being a wife."
"Hmph." Li Zhenjiang was too lazy to defend her.
Li Kai returned to Banshantun Li Zhenjiang, but he had been staying on the mountain after he came and never came down. In fact, Li Zhenjiang was also very angry, and it was really unfilial to be angry with his elders. But what can I do? The old woman has never had a good face to the fourth wife, and she also doesn't like this grandson. People don't want to touch your cold butt. What can you do? After all, there is a layer of space.
Li Zhenjiang also scolded Li Yan once. No younger generation holds revenge on his elders, and he doesn't know how to manage it. But the fourth brother said that if he thinks he did something wrong and did something wrong, he will admit it and kneel down and be punished. As for his wife, even if he doesn't have a surname, you have never regarded her as the Li family, and you can't say it.
As for grandson, if you really don’t like it, then expel the Li family and let him take his mother’s surname.
Li Zhenjiang was "stopped" and what else can I say? The fourth brother really refused to recognize his son? How could it be that he did not do anything disobedient, at least he did not do anything about face. Although he was not by his side, his monthly money was money and things, which was more than the other children's families.
Moreover, the eldest and the third brother have always spoken for the fourth brother, and indirectly stated that Mrs. Li was too harsh on the fourth brother, no wonder that in the new era, we cannot use the old trick to suppress our children.
Alas, it’s really hard to be a parent now.
Li Kai left Banshantun early the next morning, and he never went to see his grandparents when he arrived.
