Chapter 701 The first night in the city

Chapter 701 The first night in the city

After shopping, Dashan and Shitou sent Liu Hongjun and others home, and then left Xuecheng with their horses and sledges.

Go back from this point. If you walk faster, you can still get home after dark.

Liu Hongjun was not worried about the safety of the two people. Both men and horses had long guns on the sledges and pistols on their bodies.

With the skills of two people, they can handle it under normal circumstances.

The state has been cracking down recently, and robbers have also been beaten.

People in Yushutun run back and forth on this road every day. It is a very safe road.

After returning home, Liu Hongjun started busy preparing dinner.

As mentioned before, Liu Hongjun was going to invite people from the mountain goods shop to dinner in the evening, so Liu Hongjun naturally had to make preparations in advance.

When he entered the city this time, Liu Hongjun brought a lot of dried chickens, ducks and rabbits, as well as frozen pheasants, wild ducks and hares.

Liu Hongjun went to the mountain goods shop next door to get some dried mushrooms, and started to work.

After all, Yang Qiuyan took her body with her and walked around the department store for a while in the afternoon. After she came back, she felt tired and went upstairs to rest.

The three children were playing happily downstairs, but they didn't have such freedom in the village.

The house here is relatively large, and except for the boiler room, you can go anywhere else, which makes Daxue and the others very excited.

Liu Hongjun was busy in the kitchen, preparing for the evening meal.

Fungus and mushrooms are soaked early.

The dried chickens, ducks and rabbits were also washed several times by Liu Hongjun, chopped into pieces one by one, washed several times again, and then soaked in clean water.

This treatment is to allow the meat to fully absorb moisture. Under normal circumstances, this kind of air-dried chicken, duck and rabbit needs to be soaked overnight.

Liu Hongjun didn't have that much time, so he could only use this method.

The soaked meat also needs to be cooked again. This process not only makes the meat softer, but also removes some excess oil and odor.

Liu Hongjun skillfully operated the spatula, put various ingredients into the pot one by one, added an appropriate amount of water, and began to stew.

As time passed, a mouth-watering aroma of food began to fill the kitchen.

"Dad, what delicious food did you cook?" Daxue asked curiously as he poked his little head.

"Dad made a lot of delicious food, including fried chicken, stewed duck, stewed rabbit with pork, and your favorite scrambled eggs with persimmons." Liu Hongjun turned around and said with a smile.

"Dad, I'm hungry. When can I eat?" Daxue's eyes suddenly lit up when he heard the names of these dishes.

"You play with your brother for a while first, and you can eat it soon!" Liu Hongjun said with a smile.

Soon, dinner was ready. Liu Hongjun came up first to call Yang Qiuyan down, and then went to call the people from the mountain goods shop next door.

"Red Army, why are you so embarrassed?" Da Qiangzi said with some embarrassment.

"Brother Red Army, how about we get some eggs?" Wang Xiuling also said.

"Okay, why are you so polite? I just asked you to come over for a meal, and all of you got embarrassed." Liu Hongjun said with a smile.

When everyone arrived, Liu Hongjun went into the kitchen, took out the food and brought it to the dining table.

He took out the wine he brought and poured it for Da Qiangzi, Wang Xiuling and others.

"We are all away from home, and I don't advise you to drink more. Each of you can drink according to your own capacity." Liu Hongjun explained.

"Don't worry, we usually don't drink at night." Da Qiangzi said with a smile.

"Just don't drink. Safety comes first when you go out." Liu Hongjun said with a smile.

“Brother Red Army, the food you cook is so delicious!

No wonder, everyone in the village says you can cook!

Sister Qiuyan, you are so happy. "The two girls, Wang Xiuling, were chattering.

"It's delicious. Just eat more. We're going to live in the city for a while. You can come over and eat with us." Yang Qiuyan said with a smile.

"How about that? Come here and have a meal today, every day, why are you so embarrassed?" Wang Xiuling said.

“There’s nothing to be embarrassed about, it’s just that when cooking, cook more.

How much food can you eat?

It’s also lively when there are many people eating. "Liu Hongjun smiled nonchalantly.

Everyone was chatting and laughing. After eating, the two girls, Wang Xiuling, took the initiative to take over the task of clearing away the dishes.

Liu Hongjun turned on the radio and everyone sat on the sofa and listened to the radio.

"Red Army, I heard that there is a device that can see people, called a TV set." Da Qiangzi said.

"Well, I'll ask tomorrow to see if a TV is easy to buy. If so, I'll buy one.

Let you all see it, and you will be able to boast about it when you return to the countryside. Liu Hongjun smiled.

"Brother Hongjun, do you want to buy a TV?" Wang Xiuling, who had finished clearing the dishes, asked in surprise when she heard Liu Hongjun's words.

“I have to ask, TVs are not easy to buy these days.

I asked my friends in the city to see if they had any options. Liu Hongjun said.

He wasn't sure whether Jian Hongjie and the others could buy a TV.

It is true that Jian Hongjie is a traitor, but he is following the old Maozi line.

Except for the few domestic TV manufacturers, TV sets are smuggled in from the south.

It’s not a route, so I don’t know if I can buy it.

After joking for a while, Da Qiangzi and others wisely said goodbye and left.

Liu Hongjun boiled water to wash his daughter and son, and after driving them to bed, he brought water over to wash Yang Qiuyan's feet and massage her soles to relieve fatigue.

Finally, I washed myself and went to bed.

This bed is very big, no smaller than the heated bed at home, so it can sleep five people without being crowded.

Liu Hongjun was lying on the bed, telling stories to his daughter and son.

My daughter and son were playing a little crazy today. They were not idle all afternoon. They were lying on the bed. After a while, my daughter and son fell into a deep sleep.

Liu Hongjun also hugged Yang Qiuyan and slowly fell asleep.

Early the next morning, Liu Hongjun woke up early, went to the toilet, and practiced two sets of boxing on the first floor.

After practicing boxing, Liu Hongjun washed up and prepared to make breakfast.

When I walked into the kitchen, I remembered that I was in the city. I didn't have to make breakfast by myself in the morning. I could go to the street to buy breakfast.

Of course, Liu Hongjun can also cook for himself, but when he first arrived in the city, he still went to buy some breakfast so that his wife and children could have a taste.

This is not the future, the food safety of things sold on the street is still guaranteed.

Liu Hongjun took a small aluminum alloy pot and a basket to the breakfast shop at the corner of the street.

After eating breakfast at the breakfast shop, I bought ten more steamed buns, half meat and half vegetarian, and half a pot of millet porridge.

Back home, Yang Qiuyan and the child were still sleeping.

After Liu Hongjun put down his breakfast, he went to the mountain goods shop next door.

Nowadays, there are no longer queues in Shanguo shops like before, but there are still a lot of people.

Many people come here to wait for the pork to be sold.

Others are shopping for groceries in the morning, stopping by to buy some wild products or eggs.

At about eight o'clock, the delivery horse and sledge arrived, and Liu Hongjun helped carry the pork into the shop.
