Chapter 181: Four Dishes

Thinking of this, Wang An said: "Then let's go tomorrow. Have you found the place?"

Wang An was asking if they had found the place where the sables were, because the places where sables live are on the ground in the forest, jumping around. Their nests are generally in piles of rubble or under the roots of big trees.

This thing weighs about 2 jin, and it can be said to be a small thing, more than twice as big as a grey dog, but it is also exceptionally sensitive. Whether it's climbing trees or running on the ground, it's agile and fast.

Of course, it wouldn't work if it weren't agile and fast. Tiger cubs, yellow-throated martens, wolves, or foxes all eat it.

However, the ones that eat it the most are tiger cubs and yellow-throated martens, because they are both experts at climbing trees. And although the sable is also very powerful, whether it's body shape or its own weight, it's not on the same level, so it can't beat anyone.

If you can discover the figure of a sable in a tree, then search carefully, you will definitely find the sable's cubs, because only sables that have given birth will run to live in trees.

The sable is actually grey-brown, but the reason it's called a sable is that this thing looks like it's emitting purple light under the sunlight, which is purple!

Generally in the Northeast, a living sable is called a sable, and after the sable dies, its fur is called a big skin. But to be accurate, the full name is called "big leaf skin."

It's just that generally speaking, the possibility of catching a live sable is basically zero. All mountain-goers get dead sables, so they are mostly called big skins.

Of course, with the construction of forest farms, land reclamation, fleeing famine, and various other reasons, more outsiders have come to the Northeast, and more people call it sable skin.

And even among locals, there are many who originally called it a sable.

It's just a name, as long as everyone understands, there's no problem with whatever you call it.

Seeing Mu Xueli just said: "My object's sixth grandfather already told me. He originally set clamps in those few places. He also said that the further you go into the mountains, the more of these things there are."

"Hmm, as long as there's a place, we'll go through the few places you know first, and then we'll go deeper into the mountains." Wang An said without hesitation.

"Hmm, brother-in-law, I thought so too." Seeing Mu Xueli said.

While talking, Wang An remembered that he hadn't distributed the money to his brother-in-law yet. Wang An's accounting was very simple. The money from selling the jumping cats this time couldn't be distributed to Wang Li; the rest was distributed according to the proportion.

Roughly calculating in his head, Wang An counted out 140 yuan and handed it to Seeing Mu Xueli, simultaneously saying: "This is the money from selling those sheep carcasses and such last time, distributing 140 yuan to you."

Seeing Mu Xueli said happily: "Thank you, brother-in-law." He took the money without counting it and stuffed it directly into his pocket.

Wang An looked at his brother-in-law and suddenly remembered the "hardship fee" Seeing Mu Xueli wanted to give him last time, so he said playfully: "Not giving me a 'hardship fee' this time? I was quite hardworking this time too."

Seeing Mu Xueli was stunned upon hearing this, probably thinking of the time he was beaten by his brother-in-law that day.

Seeing Mu Xueli scratched his head embarrassedly and was just about to speak, when he heard Mu Xueqing next to him say with a smile:

"Oh, my brother is doing well, knowing how to give his brother-in-law a hardship fee. Since you've given it to your brother-in-law, big sister here can't be lacking either, right?"

Actually, Mu Xueqing knew about this, because one night under the covers, Wang An had told her while messing with her.

At that time, Mu Xueqing was stunned when she heard it, and then, regardless of Wang An on her body, she started laughing loudly.

Everyone knows that when a person laughs, all the muscles in the body will exert force unconsciously.

Especially the muscles at the root of the thighs, which contract even more violently.

And when people laugh, it's one after another, and very coherent. So, Wang An was comfortable at that time. That feeling was no worse than Shen Wei "slurping" noodles!

Since then, whenever Wang An messed with Mu Xueqing, he would rack his brains to tell a few jokes to Mu Xueqing, so as to achieve his goal of being comfortable.

It must be said that Wang An's strategy was implemented quite smoothly, and Mu Xueqing seemed to have fallen in love with this style.

When Seeing Mu Xueli heard his big sister speak, he was even more embarrassed and distressed to death, his face turning red, but he kept saying: "How could that be, there's no such thing, how could I do that?"

Looking at Seeing Mu Xueli's uncomfortable state at this moment, everyone laughed out loud in unison.

After chatting for a while, the sky was about to darken. Seeing Mu Xueli was about to bid farewell and leave, because he had to go into the mountains early tomorrow, so Wang An's family didn't keep Seeing Mu Xueli for a meal.

It's just that Mu Xueting hadn't played enough and didn't want to go home, so Wang An's family took the opportunity to keep Mu Xueting, while Seeing Mu Xueli drove the sled away alone.

Actually, for Mu Xueting, big sister Mu Xueqing and mother Liu Ruxin were the same, because father Mu Hua was in poor health, and mother Liu Ruxin had to work to earn work points, so Seeing Mu Xueli and Mu Xueting had been brought up by Mu Xueqing since they were young.

This era is all like this. Parents work to earn work points, and the older children in the family take care of the younger ones. Anyway, the eldest in every family is the most hardworking one. Even if they go out to play, they have to bring one or two burdens behind them. Every family is the same!

Of course, Wang An is different. In his past life, Wang An only took care of his younger brother Wang Yi. When Wang Yi grew up, Wang An handed over the heavy responsibility of taking care of the two little sisters to Wang Yi, while he himself went to play or do whatever he wanted.

Wang An's original words to Wang Yi were: "Little Yi, big brother has to go to work. You must take good care of these two sisters. When they grow up, they will definitely repay you."

And then, Wang An disappeared. But Wang An timed it very accurately. Every time before the production team was about to finish work, he would rush home and take over the heavy responsibility of taking care of the two little sisters.

So every time Wang Dazhu and his wife finished work and returned home, what they saw was Wang An taking care of the two little ones.

It's just that walking often by the river, how can one not get their shoes wet? Occasionally discovered by Wang Dazhu and his wife, they would inevitably catch Wang An and give him a whipping with the tip of the whip!

It was also from that time that Wang An learned a truth: "The tip of the whip whipping people is truly damn painful!"

For dinner, because Mu Xueting was there, Liu Guilan, Mu Xueqing, and Wang An made a total of 4 dishes. This treatment was quite high. Normally, entertaining a leading cadre would be four dishes.

Although Mu Xueting was only a 7-year-old child, she was Mu Xueqing's sister from her maiden home, so the whole family had to look at her with high regard. Actually, this had nothing to do with age, but in the Northeast, this is called a "guest"!

As long as it's a guest, you have to treat them seriously. Actually, Liu Guilan wanted to make 6 dishes, but was stopped by Mu Xueqing. Giving the mother-in-law face is enough; there's truly no need to make so many.

Furthermore, Mu Xueqing's maiden home is not lacking meat now. It's all meat, and no matter how you cook it, the taste is about the same.

Although not many dishes were made, Liu Guilan dragged Wang An to the outer room and didn't feel bad about the white liquor at all, letting Wang An make a large basin of braised jumping cat, pheasant, and half-jin meat!

Then he used 2 flying dragons to stew a basin of soup. This specification was absolutely powerful. Two flying dragons, 12 yuan, nearly 10 days' salary for a formal employee!

When eating, Mu Xueting's bowl was never empty. Just a 7-year-old child, how much can she eat even if she can eat?

So most of the dishes still went into the family's stomachs.

Come to think of it, sleeping was the most painful thing for Wang An, because five people lived in the east room, and the kang was originally a bit small, so Mu Xueting lived in Mu Xueqing's quilt.

It's just that this squeezed Wang An out, and the bedding wasn't enough, so Wang An spread out a black bear skin and covered himself with a big bear skin.

Don't say, besides the fact that there was no Mu Xueqing in the quilt, making Wang An feel very lonely and "hard to endure," wrapped in these two furs, it was truly warm.

In the middle of the night, Wang An, who was sleeping soundly, felt his little brother being arrested again, and then it was about to be beheaded, which scared Wang An into opening his eyes wide.

But immediately after, feeling a weight on his body, his little brother was released from under the guillotine, only to be locked into a dark prison again!

This feeling, why is it so comfortable?

If you have votes, reward some, thank you, thank you.
