Chapter 324 The Return of the Dogs
After Director Niu's meeting, leaving aside the health aspect, the Educated Youth Office started to complain because this job was really too big.
Moreover, tomorrow is the Little New Year, and the next day will be the New Year. No matter how life is, every household has a lot of things to do.
Although there is no holiday during the Chinese New Year, everyone covers for each other on a daily basis. Taking a break will not affect their busy work at home, nor will it affect their own family's Chinese New Year.
Okay now, they need to hurry up and compile this list, otherwise this year will not be stable.
But whether they like it or not, the County Educated Youth Office is already busy, and many people are queuing up to make calls.
These calls were made to the commune's educated youth office, and they were asked to submit the list as quickly as possible.
Now it's the commune's turn to complain. Compared with those brigade with telephones, it's better. Just call and ask the brigade leader to nominate outstanding educated youths from their side. You only need to report it truthfully. As for whether it is passed or not, the details will be discussed above. View the archives.
But there are too many villages without telephones, and they need to go one by one.
It's hard to walk outside in this icy and snowy environment. The bicycles that I used to show off in the past may not be able to be ridden by anyone in this situation, and they have completely become a useless decoration.
But the task must be completed, so the people from the commune's educated youth office began to show their talents. Some went to nearby villages to borrow animals, and some went to the commune animal husbandry station to borrow animals. Whether they were donkeys, horses, or mules, as long as they could carry them, they could do it.
Captain Liang of Shanghe Village also received this kind of call. Although it was not from Director Liu, he still reported Han Li's name without thinking. Later, he was asked by someone from the commune's educated youth office to help him run a small Hecun and Lijiatun are two places without telephones.
After Han Li returned home, they were chatting and laughing while preparing the meals they were waiting for.
He walked around the north room and returned to the health room, set up the medicine pot and continued to cook the medicine.
Han Li was taking care of the medicinal materials in the pot and looking through the imperial doctor's notes in the room until Yun Yingying came over and asked him to eat.
"Brother Li, just hurry up and we'll get ready to eat. Don't you know that we've made a total of four kinds of dumplings today? We can cook them when you get back to the house."
"There are four kinds of fillings. There are quite a lot of them. What are they?"
"Pork, scallions, sauerkraut, pork, fish, and venison, chili and cabbage stuffing made by Qi Xiaomei and Hou Yuhua."
"Put chili in the dumpling filling?"
"Yes, Qi Xiaomei said that they often put chili peppers in their dumplings, but she doesn't know if they taste good or not, because she has only seen them before, but never eaten them, so she was reluctant to put pork and chose deer. Try the meat. But Hou Yuhua must have eaten it, because when Qi Xiaomei expressed her thoughts before mixing the stuffing, she kept her head down and said nothing. "
"Haha, isn't this normal? It's not like we haven't seen what Qi Xiaomei was like when she came here, and as for Hou Yuhua, the two half-sisters are treated very differently."
"Yes, but this Hou Yuhua is also a sensible person. She must have heard some news, otherwise she wouldn't take the initiative to help Qi Xiaomei with her classes, and she often hangs around our house to help with work."
"It's best to be understanding. If a fool drags Little Sister Qi around all day long, we have to find ways to help."
While the two were talking, Han Li had already prepared the medicinal ingredients in the pot, closed the outside door and returned to the north room.
There are more than a dozen curtain-covered dumplings placed at the door of the north room, which look very spectacular when put together.
Everyone made meat, flour, vegetables and other things for today's dinner, and there were also a lot of dumplings.
Because everyone had agreed before starting work that this time not only would they make the dumplings that everyone would eat together today, but also
There are also dumplings that each of the 'Xiao Nian's will need at home tomorrow. That's why we have this scene in front of us.
At this time, a few of them were sitting on the kang chatting. When they saw Han Li coming in, they started shouting for dinner.
The water in the pot has already boiled. Now you only need to add firewood to the bottom of the stove and boil the dumplings in the pot.
There weren't many people in front of the stove, so Han Li could just sit on the kang and wait to eat dumplings.
After the dumplings are cooked, no one is particular about it. Some eat them in front of the stove, while others sit around the kang table and eat them. In short, the dumplings must be hot to be delicious.
The first pot was stuffed with pork and green onions. As soon as Han Li tasted this, he knew it was Yun Jingjing's stuffing because it was as delicious as ever.
The second pot was stuffed with pickled cabbage and pork. Although it tasted good, it didn’t look like Yun Jingjing’s creation.
The third pot was catfish-filled dumplings prepared by Hao Hongmin and others. Han Li felt that they tasted good after taking one bite.
Hao Hongmin added some tiny diced fatty meat into the fish filling, which not only tastes full of oil and water, but also gives people a nice layered feeling after eating it in the mouth.
Finally, there was Qi Zhaodi’s dumplings stuffed with venison, chili and cabbage. She looked very unsure when she served them to Han Li.
However, Han Li was not in a hurry to taste the dumpling because he noticed that Qi Zhaodi's wrists and palms were unnaturally red and swollen.
After Han Li waited for Qi Zhaodi to put down the dumplings, he reached out and grabbed her wrist, looked at it carefully and let go before speaking.
"Didn't I tell you to come to me when you feel something is wrong? Why didn't you tell me that your hand has become like this? And your arms are not right now, are they?"
"Brother Han, you've been busy these two days. I feel fine so I don't want to trouble you."
Han Li shook his head without saying anything, turned around and took out a bottle of plaster he had prepared before from the kang cabinet and handed it to Qi Zhaodi.
"Go back and clean it and rub it on the wrong place. It will be much lighter tomorrow. You can't get fat in one bite. You must reduce the amount of practice, otherwise it will be harmful to your body."
After Han Li finished speaking, he was about to taste the dumplings made by Qi Zhaodi, but at this time He Mi spoke on the side.
"Han Li, I don't understand this kind of thing. Come and supervise Qi Xiaomei when you have time."
"Okay, I will go over more often when I have time, but I am most familiar with my own physical condition. If you feel something is wrong, come and tell me. Don't keep silent like this time."
Qi Zhaodi nodded obediently, and Han Li picked up the chopsticks and took a bite of the dumplings stuffed with chili.
The first feeling is numbing, followed by spicy, and finally the aroma of venison.
The spicy taste is more appetizing and gives people a novel feeling. Even though they have eaten three kinds of dumplings before, everyone ate a lot.
Qi Zhaodi saw everyone's reaction and the little bit of uncertainty and trepidation on her face turned into a smile. After eating, except for Han Li, everyone joined the team to clean up the mess.
After finishing the work, everyone sat on the kang and chatted. Yun Yingying brought up the thawed persimmons and frozen pears.
There are people who can eat this thing, and naturally there are people who can't eat it. Yun Jingjing demonstrated it to everyone.
The sour and sweet taste quickly conquered the people present, and they all said that they would also reserve some frozen pears next year.
After eating dessert and chatting for a while, everyone divided the remaining dumplings and went back to their homes.
After closing the door, washing, getting on the kang, turning on the lights, doing some things they like, Han Li's house fell into silence for a long time.
However, when he slept in the middle of the night, Han Li heard a noisy sound outside in a daze.
Because of the previous experience, Han Li was always alert when the dogs were not at home. When he heard the sound, his sleepiness disappeared completely.
Listening carefully, the sound was far away from him. If it was not too quiet at night, it might not be transmitted here.
Although he didn't know what was going on, Han Li still climbed up from the kang on tiptoe.
It was not normal at all in the middle of the night. No matter what happened, he couldn't sleep anymore.
Even if it was something about the neighbor's house, he couldn't pretend not to hear it. He still had to help when he should.
When Han Li put on his clothes and came to the yard, snowflakes were still floating in the sky.
However, although the chaotic sounds were getting smaller and smaller, they did not disappear, as if someone was suppressing them.
This situation made Han Li more alert. He moved his hands and feet in the yard, took out a long spear directly from the decomposition space, and stood in the shadow next to the gate.
However, as the sound got closer and closer, Han Li found that he was too nervous, and he laughed at himself and put away the long spear.
Because he felt the presence of his head dog and heard Ren Liangshan's low voice.
"Keep your voice down, it's not good for people to see us carrying so many things."
"I know, Uncle Ren, aren't you a little excited because we're about to get home?"
"What a great achievement! If you young people hadn't been clamoring to come back, we would have gained more this time."
"Haha. Isn't it the Little New Year?"
"What Little New Year is just an excuse, you young people are just thinking about home..."
Han Li opened the street door directly after hearing this, and looked at a group of black shadows in the distance, without flashlights, holding lanterns and slowly walking towards him.
Or it could be said that the dog's eyesight is good, and it can still see its owner in the distance in the middle of the night.
So, under the leadership of the head dog, they left the team directly, making a whining sound and ran towards Han Li.
This situation caused a commotion among the black shadows, but it was immediately suppressed by Ren Liangshan. He walked a few steps quickly to Han Li and whispered.
"Brother Han, why are you still awake at this time? Just in case I have to call you."
"Uncle Ren, I happened to hear your voices when I got up to go to the bathroom. It's so cold, everyone, please go inside and warm up."
"We won't go inside. This time we have a good harvest. We must rush back home before dawn, otherwise it will be bad if people see us. Let's have a good gathering another day."
When they were talking, the group of people had already walked over, each of them pulling a sled behind them.
