Chapter 151 Elder Bai Arrives
Elder Bai arrives
After taking the priest to the West Room where the guests were valeted, Ding Xiao hurriedly asked, "What's the big deal for you to come?" Otherwise, it's almost time for dinner, and no one would come here empty-handed. (black line)
The priest nodded: "I must be looking for you. Just now the guards from Tiger God City came to the village and said that Elder Bai will be in our village at noon tomorrow at the latest. We have to prepare some food for reception tomorrow. Can you came to see you?"
"Uh...that Elder Bai...who is he?" Don't blame Ding Xiao for being ignorant, he really hasn't inquired about all kinds of things in Tiger God City.To be honest, he only thought about how to travel around the world of beasts, but he really didn't regard Tiger God City as his primary destination.It may be because he "has done too many things" in Tianhe Village, so he subconsciously wants to avoid the jurisdiction of the top leader of the Maverick Clan.Youdao is that the county magistrate is not as good as the current one. Under the rule of Uncle Pengjia, he is also the home court anyway!
The priest replied: "There are six elders around the patriarch, one chief priest and four ordinary priests. Each elder is responsible for bringing some outstanding male cubs from other villages and teaching them how to hunt and fight with males who are also orcs. The elders They also help the patriarch handle the affairs of the clan, and they have a high status. They are second only to the patriarch and the chief priest. This elder Bai should be Ying's master?" After finishing speaking, she looked at Kun.
Kun nodded: "Yeah. Ying learned from Elder Bai." However, Kun's impression of Elder Bai was very average.He never dared to deny the elder's ability and strength, but Elder Bai was too smart, so after meeting him twice, he felt quite upset that he didn't take advantage of him. (Hey!)
Since he is Ying's master, he must be treated well. "Is that shadow coming back?" I have never seen this combination of "Second Cousin" and "Second Brother".
"Well, I'm back. Not only Shadow, but a cub in the village, Lin, also came back to stay for a few days. Elder Bai also brought two other cubs from other villages with him. He said he was coming. Let's study in Tianhe Village for a few days. Isn't it just that our village has done a lot of new and good things this year, and those elders in the clan will take advantage of it the most." The priest also said quite unhappy.
Seeing the priest's expression, Ding Xiao was amused: "Didn't you always say that the premise is to take the good of the tribe?"
The priest pursed his lips: "Then it must be done after our Tianhe Village is finished first, right? This is not the time when everything was assigned by the patriarch. Besides, it's not that we don't know how to report, the nature is different!" After finishing speaking, he looked like Kun , "You help make the food for tomorrow, do you understand?"
Kun's fighting spirit suddenly became high: "Yeah!"
After the priest left, Ding Xiao pondered while cooking.
After I came to the village, the life of the villagers has indeed changed a lot, but the most important thing is to let everyone know that rice nuts and pearl fruit are two plants that can be used as staple food and can also be hungry.Another thing about farming has not really spread to every household in the village.So it shouldn't be too noticeable.And my own land has been buried under the heavy snow now, although I am sure that Tiger God City will have heard the news long ago, but it is just farming, and it is not that the Winged Tiger Clan has never planted anything.It is nothing more than sacrificial herbs, pickles scattered by the villagers and the like.In short, neither of these things is worth hiding.
It should be said that the ones with higher technical content are wine making and car making.But for these two things, he remembered that the uncle had given the simple blueprint of the car to the patriarch, and he also used it in exchange for the permission to organize a small market with several villages.As for the wine, as long as the village department does not bring it out, no one will know about it.Judging from the attitude of the priests hiding something from the people in Tiger God City, other villagers must also stick to their own villages.It shouldn't be a big problem.
So the biggest place to visit should be the market, right?If the elders come to "inspect" in person, is it because the small market in the village is getting more and more prosperous, which makes the patriarch of Tiger God City feel a sense of crisis?It doesn't make sense!Tiger God City can open a bigger market, and let people from all villages of the tribe go to the market.
What else is worth the trouble?
Seeing that Xiaoxiao had already blackened the slices of steamed buns, Kun quickly took the wooden shovel from his partner: "What are you thinking about?"
When Ding Xiao came back to his senses, he also asked about the burnt smell. "Uh... I was thinking, what exactly did Elder Bai want to see when he came to our Tianhe Village?"
She was so sleepy that she raised her eyebrows slightly: "It's nothing good. Anyway, you can cook ordinary food tomorrow."
Seeing that Kun didn't seem to like Elder Bai, Ding Xiao suddenly had an idea: "Otherwise, I'll make this mustard much, much hotter, how about it?"
Kun glanced at Ding Xiao, and then showed a bright smile: "Yeah!"
Elder Bai took four student cubs and a guard male to the south entrance of Tianhe Village at about ten o'clock the next morning.
The village chief is waiting to receive distinguished guests in the village department at the moment, and he does not need to come forward to meet this kind of thing, at least he is also the chief executive of a village.It's just that the rules here make Ding Xiao a little strange, thinking that the elder's status is so high that the village head has to greet him.It turned out that Min and Ge Zhong went to the entrance of the village to pick up people.
Kun was with his father, and the father and son were discussing something from time to time.And He's current duty is to help his friend and son prepare food for the guests.Together with the guard who arrived last night, and the few people who received today, there should be ten adults in the chair, including Liu Dai and the two female priests.That is to say, they will prepare eight adult males to eat in the chair.Barbecue is a must, and Ding Xiao specially prepared a large plate of mustard pork belly under Kun's instruction.Of course, the mustard powder was distributed from yesterday before dinner until just now. As for how strong it is, Ding Xiao didn't try it.But He Adie's personal opinion is that it's okay.But Ding Xiao didn't intend to believe his father's words at all, he found that his father had no limit to spicy food.I only hope that Elder Bai can have such a powerful taste system as Dad.
In addition to mustard pork belly and five-spice roasted venison leg, Ding Xiao fried a large plate of pork strips with green vegetables in lard based on the principle of simplicity and generosity.Originally, he wanted to fry it with sauerkraut, but everyone suppressed it.Ding Xiao suddenly felt that he seemed to be the most generous person in the village, but looking at the eyes of the priest, he also felt that he seemed to be the most careless person in the village...
Ding Xiao also fried a lot of beef strips under the help of his father. The seasoning on the top is only pepper and salt. This is not only a common material, but also shows that the people in Tianhe Village eat differently.
In addition to meat, Ding Xiao also braised white beans and chicken nuggets.Because Dad He chopped up six chickens and more than ten extra-large white beans.So a total of three pots were made, and Ding Xiao was only responsible for mixing the flavors thoroughly, and it was He Adie's job to stir and stir fry.
The staple food was arranged by Papa Joan.In view of the need to use less food stored in the village, less than four stones of pearl fruit flour was used, and the rest was mixed with two pumpkins, one large and one small, to make fried pumpkin cakes.Anyway, just let the foreign males have a taste, they still mainly eat meat.
For the other four cubs, three of them will eat at the village.Cub Lin was sent home by Elder Bai after returning to the village.Although Ying also went home, his parents and elder brother were all in the village, and he went home to drink the northwest wind.In addition, as a native of this village, he always had to accompany these two classmates from other villages, even though Ying didn't like them very much.
There are some good things on the pups' dinner table.Because Miao Miao and Cang also had to come to eat, Ding Xiao made curry-flavored fried fish sticks at the strong request of Miao Miao’s little friend, and also cooked a pot of salted egg and lean meat porridge, just because the fire was a little too big It turned into rice with salted egg and lean meat.
Ding Xiao and Qiong, as the chefs and the masters of "accompanying the guests" to eat, sat with the children.Originally, Papa Joan was supposed to sit and eat with Papa He and those males, but he didn't like that kind of occasion very much, he might as well look at a group of cubs in a happy mood.So I asked myself to change a table for dinner.
Mashed the purple melon and mantou fruit together and kneaded them into purple dumplings, then deep-fried in a pan, and topped with cranberry jam.
The sliced beef is wrapped with shredded red lettuce, shredded purple melon, and shredded egg. After being fried in oil, it is eaten with spicy sauce.
The steamed fresh large yellow croaker does not have any special seasoning, but the steamed fish juice mixed with only a spoonful of oil is already full of umami.
In short, Ding Xiao put a lot of effort into the food on the cub's table, but all the ingredients he used were familiar to the beast world.The reason why they made different foods is that Cang and Miaomiao got used to their fresh ideas.Secondly, he really hoped to make a good impression on Ying.After all, they are a family, and their identity seems a little embarrassing.Well, it's just embarrassing myself.
Ding Xiao and his son don't know what the leaders' house looks like, and they are not very interested.But at their table, they ate fairly peacefully.
Yesterday Ding Xiao asked Kun about Ying's temperament, what he dislikes and what he likes.Although Kun Shuying was sent to Tiger God City when he was very young, and he was not very clear about some living habits, but occasionally when he went home for the New Year, he could still see that his second brother was very mature in his thinking, and he was very stable in speaking and doing things. , that is, his personality is a little cold, and he is not particularly talkative.
After hearing it for the first time, Ding Xiao thought it was quite funny.It turned out that the three sons of the village head's family were not very talkative.Although I know that Kun just doesn't like to say unimportant things to unimportant people, it's not that he doesn't like talking.Cang Nai likes to hit the nail on the head, and if he doesn't complain, the star person will be reincarnated.But on the surface, they still have the virtue of beating up with facial paralysis.Sure enough, Xiao Miaomiao was the best, a normal cub with normal facial nerves and language rhythm.
But after seeing Ying today and saying hello to each other, Ding Xiao felt that compared to Kun and Cang, Ying really didn't show much emotion.Although he also had a smile on the surface, the feeling was not deep.It's true that he doesn't talk much, but he will ask about things he doesn't know and novelty, but the way of asking is so cautious that he doesn't seem to be asking relatives and family members.Ding Xiao was not used to this feeling.Of course, he can also understand that since he was young, he didn't grow up with his mother, father, brothers and sisters, and lived and studied with the elders in Tiger God City, so he must have lived a different way of life.
And when I came here to prepare food in the morning, I heard from my father that the cubs who were taken to Tiger God City, especially the sons of the village head, rarely came back to inherit the position of village head.So what they receive is another kind of education.In other words, it is a mentality based on protecting the interests of the patriarch and Tiger God City.This is actually one of the reasons why they never announced to the villagers that Kun would not inherit the post of village chief.As for whether Cang or Ying will take Pengjia's position, it is still unknown.Or if Kun and Ding Xiaocongying and Cang had raised a son among their cubs, then the position of village head might still belong to Kun.It's just that that's at least 200 years later.
Elder Bai and the two guards were arranged to stay at the village head, and Peng Jia stayed with him as the village head.Of course, Ding Xiao secretly suspected that the village head might be looking at every plant and tree in the village, especially the two large cellars, one of which contained nineteen cylinders of fruit wine.
The two male cubs who came with Elder Bai were arranged at the village head's house.Anyway, Kun's room is empty, and Ying is still there, even though Ying is not at home. Now it's Xiao Miaomiao who is going to live with her grandmother.Cang lived in Miaomiao's room.And the shadow lives in his own room.Weihu from Wangyun Village lives in Kun's former house, and Jun from Sanshan Village lives in Cang's house.In short, one person, one room, the arrangement is considered appropriate.
After helping Aunt Liu Dai clean up the room, Ding Xiao was taken home by Kun.Seeing the unhappy face of his black tiger, Ding Xiao wondered: "What's wrong? Did Elder Bai say something? Or did he make some unreasonable request?"
Kun replied truthfully: "He said that he heard that someone in our village made the common fruit taste like beard fruit. He wanted to know if there was such a thing. Uncle Ge Zhong went home and took a small jar of cider. The priest said that She discovered it by accident, and said that this thing is good for curing diseases, so she just got some more this year, but how to make it better and more fruits without rotting and smelling, I still don’t quite understand .”
Ding laughed at the black line, Mr. Ji's ability to lie is really amazing. "Then Elder Bai didn't say anything else?"
Kun nodded: "However, he also said that he heard that you can cook particularly delicious dried pork, and he would like to have a chance to try it."
Ding Xiao especially wanted to say the word "reliable".This is really the leader coming down to check, just say what you want to eat and see.What a face! "Then do it. I'll take it for him in the middle of tomorrow, and I'll start making it in the morning, and it's worth 300 yuan! I was told that I didn't eat enough and wanted to see what I did."
Kun was very satisfied: "Make two more pieces of that mustard barbecue. Elder Bai has a runny nose after eating that. But the two guards love it very much, and Father and Uncle Min are also okay."
"Pfft!" Ding Xiao fantasized about Elder Bai's runny nose after eating mustard meat slices, and felt so delighted. "There are only a few mustard seeds. You can save some for me. The stew is delicious. After all, they are also elders. Their status is so high. Just once is enough. How can they be repeated again and again! "
Kun kissed Xiaoxiao's forehead: "I won't let him succeed."
Ding Xiao smiled wryly: "These things have never been told to the villagers to keep them secret, so it's not surprising that they are heard about. If you can hide this year, you won't be able to hide next year. Sooner or later, you will share it with your tribe."
Kun said: "But if our village is stable, we can report it to Tiger God City, and then pass on the experience of other villages in the name of the village. If Elder Bai does this, our Tianhe Village will have much less credit. And new things It’s always safe if everyone agrees.”
Sure enough, any social structure will have such things as "competition for fame and fortune".This is even more so after the implementation of private ownership. "Well, anyway, you have the final say on these important matters, and it has nothing to do with me. The things in my head are almost the same. Hey, do you think Elder Bai will also come to our house to inspect it? Huh? This is the best and brightest house in the whole village!"
After Kun heard this, his face immediately darkened, but he knew that if Elder Bai asked, he would not be able to refuse.What a fire!No, the more I think about it, the more irritable I get!
