Chapter 320 Preparing for the New Year
"New Year" is the most important festival of Chaoyang Tribe, and it is also a festival that everyone welcomes and likes very much.
Because there will be very rich delicacies on this day, you can satisfy your appetite for several days.
Lin Lang had people soaked soybeans and made a lot of tofu a few days in advance. The white and tender tofu can be stewed or fried. It can be paired with meat and vegetables. It is an excellent thing.
The big fish were also slaughtered in advance, wrapped in batter and fried in a frying pan.
We harvested a lot of soybeans and peanuts this year, and squeezed a lot of oil. Everyone likes fried food, so you might as well make more.
Therefore, countless fried lotus root clips, eggplant boxes, meatballs, radish meatballs, taro chips, sweet potato chips, chicken nuggets, spare ribs, etc. have been made, and the canteen is full of oily smell all day long.
There was still a lot of barley flour, so I baked a lot of mince pies.
It also added honey and eggs to the noodles, sprinkled with sesame seeds, kneaded into thin strips, cut into small finger-sized doughs, and fried them in the oil pan. It was sweet, fragrant and crispy. Good snack.
The fried food can withstand storage, and it does not need to use Lin Lang's space, just put the baskets in the storage room upstairs of the canteen.
There are several storage rooms upstairs in the canteen, three of which are inlaid with a lot of cold jade. Even in summer, meat can be stored for a short time, not to mention now.
Prepared fried food, of course, all kinds of stuffed dishes are indispensable.
Linlang space has fresh peppers, eggplants, bitter gourd, wax gourd, shiitake mushrooms, etc., as well as freshly made tofu, and various eggs, all of which come in handy.
Fish balls, shrimp balls, meat balls, Sanxian balls, vegetarian balls, etc. are also prepared in baskets.
The red glutinous rice obtained from the Mang tribe has also been steamed a lot. The steamed glutinous rice is made into glutinous rice cakes by the young and strong tribal warriors, making round glutinous rice cakes the size of rice bowls. There are jujube paste, red bean paste, honey sesame and peanuts, diced pork, winter bamboo shoots and mushrooms, sauerkraut and bacon, and so on.
There are a lot of preparations for these things, plus a large pot of fried melon seeds, pine nuts, chestnuts, etc. The next day after the reunion dinner in the New Year, the family will be distributed according to the number of people, so that everyone can Can be lively.
The news spread, which made all the tribesmen very happy! Who doesn't know how fragrant the canteen is these days, who doesn't take a few more sniffs when passing by? Some people ran over to watch the fun, and the more they watched, the more greedy they became.
Another important activity during Chinese New Year is to kill the New Year pigs. The wild boars raised in the tribe have grown a lot, but the hunting teams have brought back so many prey that they can't finish them all. This is not the right time to kill pigs. Yes, Lin Lang is very sorry.
In the coming year, the breeding industry will develop better, so we must kill the pigs! Cook a big pot of steaming hot pork dishes, and that's it.
"New Year's Day", everyone gathered together in the cafeteria, around 4:00 p.m., while it was still early, dinner was served.
Six dishes and one soup have been prepared and served steaming hot, with fried whole fish, taro pork, sweet and sour pork ribs, chicken stewed with mushrooms, roasted venison, steamed preserved meat platter, and winter melon soup with various meatballs.
The aromas of all kinds of dishes are hot, and they blend in the air. Everyone has a smile on their faces, they speak freely, the whole room is full of joy, and they are full of praise. It's a lively New Year!
The chief told the witch that everyone can have fun today, and are not allowed to beat and scold children, in order to seek auspiciousness for the coming year. The children were full of food, chasing and scrambling, and everyone did not stop and scold, which added a bit of excitement.
"Thanks to the big boss, thanks to the witch!"
"Yes, the good days of our Chaoyang Tribe are brought by the big leader and the witch. We must guard the big leader and the witch and build the Chaoyang tribe better!"
On the second day of "Chinese New Year", there was another snowfall, and it seemed that the weather would not get better in three or five days.
I originally thought this winter would not be cold and short, but I didn't expect to change my face so quickly! Since the last snow, it is obvious that the weather is getting colder and colder than last year.
The burning of charcoal and firewood in the tribe increased significantly.
Sure enough, this snow began to swell all night and increased for half a day, but the sky was still gloomy.
After everyone shoveled the snow and cleared the way, they all huddled in the house and did not go out.
Fortunately, there is a lot to eat, delicious glutinous rice cakes, fried foods, and snacks are enough to make people pastime in bad weather.
Within three days, two more snowfalls fell.
What everyone didn't expect was that, perhaps because of the heavy snow, a large group of wild horses accidentally ran into the fields outside Chaoyang City.
Although the fields outside Chaoyang City have been harvested, there are still tall straw roots in the large area where rice is grown.
Although it is covered with snow, the wild horses can easily eat the snow with their hooves.
found enough food here, and this large herd of wild horses stopped walking, but stayed outside Chaoyang City.
This was discovered by Qian Qian and Jiu Jiu, but Lin Lang and Li Xian had the same thoughts.
"It's delivered to the door, if we don't stay, it seems a bit unreasonable?"
"Yes, you must stay!"
The two of them went out of the city first to see them. Lin Lang counted them. There were at least hundreds or dozens of wild horses, big and small.
Hundreds of wild horses!
The violent, violent and crazy temperament of the adult bison is basically impossible to conquer, but the wild horse herd is still possible. After taking it, it will not be repeated, and it can be used immediately.
Ever since I got addicted to road repairs, the tribes have been crazy about ox carts and donkey carts. They don't know it yet. What's more professional is horse carts!
Wild horses are wild, fast, and run with real strength. Bison and wild donkeys are incomparable. Horse carriages are the best means of transportation in this era!
After Lin Lang and Li Xian made their decision, they quickly mobilized three hundred tribesmen, and all four supernatural warriors dispatched, intending to lure and drive the wild horses into the city first.
Once you enter the city, you will catch the turtle in the urn. It is much easier to catch and tame it.
If it is outside, the sky is wide and the earth is wide, once they escape, it is basically impossible to get back together.
The big guy has been resting for a few days. When he heard that he finally had something to do, he was all excited.
"Catch wild horses? Okay haha!"
"The witch and the chief said that if they were caught, they could pull a cart! They said it was better than the buffalo and wild ass."
"Oh, that's too powerful, we must catch them all!"
"right!"
The wild horses are very vigilant, and this encirclement is not easy to set up at all. Lin Lang took Chiu Chiu, Yu Yan took the young tiger, and Li Xian was alone, and asked Qian Qian to help Ling Yu, each guarding one side. , and dispatched the tribesmen to block the way.
