Chapter 0493 Competition
Li Jiaoniang said, "Let's just put it here, the room is warm, Lao Qi and Asheng can eat together, it's so lively." She called Ximen Fei again and sat down and drank together.
A large round table was set up in the main hall.
The large round table is specially set and can be rotated. There is a hole in the middle. A small pot is placed under the table. A stove with all openings is placed.
The pot is placed on the stove.
On the one hand, you can use it as a hot pot on the other hand.
There were vegetables on the table and soup in the pot.
There is no shortage of wild game in the farm, and you can eat meat and bone soup every day.
Today is hare soup.
Eight side dishes were placed around the pot.
Chapter 0493 Happy House (second update)
The dishes are also authentic mountain dishes.
Fried bacon with winter bamboo shoots, stir-fried lettuce, steamed taro slices, spinach soup, pickled shredded cabbage, salted duck eggs, sauced beef, and a large pot of braised pig's trotters.
The wine is a homemade wine bought from the village.
Yuezhou rice wine is famous all over the world, and almost every household can make wine.
If you have good skills and mellow taste, you will become famous.
For example, bamboo leaves are green and daughters are red.
Rice wine is warm and can only taste good and warm the stomach.
However, Li Jiaoniang was afraid of being the one who was on the table, so she only drank half a bowl.
Today, there are many people and the atmosphere is good, and Li Jiaoniang allows Zhao Cong to drink half a bowl.
Everyone shouted and said nothing, it was so good.
Li Jiaoniang wanted to check out Zhuangzi, and shouted that Chunya had left the banquet and left the banquet to the men.
The two of them didn't drink and ate early.
Chunya found a lantern to carry it and accompanied Li Jiaoniang to the village.
After walking for a while, Chunya smiled and said, "Sister Jiao Niang, look at this farm. We haven't come for a few days and have changed again. We can hardly see the weeds. The road is swept away."
Li Jiaoniang also saw it, and she smiled and nodded, "It's not bad, it means that Asheng and Hu Laoqi have done their best to manage Zhuangzi."
As the two were walking, they saw two long-time workers in the village carrying things from the other road.
They walked to Li Jiaoniang and Chunya, politely and respectfully shouted "Miss Li, Madam Luo" and then walked forward.
Li Jiaoniang saw that they were carrying arrow feathers and targets.
She was curious, so late, why did she carry this?
"Where are you going?" Li Jiaoniang asked.
One of the older workers said, "Oh, Mr. Ximen wants to use it, saying that he will compete with others to shoot arrows later."
Li Jiaoni blinked, it was a big night to compete with others?
"Who are you competing with?" Chunya asked curiously.
"I don't know, Mr. Ximen just said, telling us to prepare quickly, he will have dinner and the competition will be held." The long-time worker smiled, "The competition place is arranged in the horse farm next to the bamboo forest, and many people are scrambling to watch it."
Chunya was interested and smiled and said, "Sister Jiao Niang, let's go and have a look."
Li Jiaoniang smiled and said, "Okay, it's rare to go out to play. Let's take up space first. I'll call Cong'er, Hu Zi Erbao and the others to come and see it."
"Okay." Chunya said with a smile.
The two followed the two long-term workers to the horse farm next to the bamboo forest.
When I arrived at the place, I could see many people.
Some sat on the stones, some were particular, and they brought stools, some squatted on the slopes, some were in groups of three and five, gathered together to chat.
Seven or eight large torches and one large brazier illuminate the venue as bright as daytime.
Someone saw Li Jiaoniang and Chunya coming and said hello, "Miss Li, Madam Luo."
Chunya was very happy. She never expected that she would be warmly welcomed by someone remembering her name during her lifetime.
"Okay, okay, I'm just like you, here's the fun. By the way, I heard that Mr. Ximen competes with people for archery. Who will he compete with?" Li Jiaoniang asked everyone with a smile.
Many people shook their heads, "I don't know."
At this time, someone came and said loudly, "It's a competition with Mr. Zhao!"
It is no secret that Zhao Cong’s true identity is no longer a secret.
However, he didn't deal with the village master and had no sense of existence.
Everyone followed the initial habit and just called him Mr. Zhao.
"Hey, Mr. Zhao, do you know how to archery?" someone asked curiously.
"I don't know, I dare to fight, right?" someone else said.
"Mr. Ximen's archery skills are no problem. It doesn't matter whether Mr. Zhao or not. Just look at Mr. Ximen's archery skills, you can also enjoy the eyes." Ximen Fei's fellow villager said with a smile.
Chunya was surprised and said, "Sister Jiao Niang, it's Xiao Cong'er competing with Mr. Ximen."
Li Jiaoni nodded, "It seems we're a coincidence. Let's call Brother Luo Cheng and the others to watch later."
Chunya looked left and right, sighed and said, "From this situation, Mr. Ximen's call for winning is quite high. I heard the sound and said that Mr. Ximen is amazing, and no one said that Xiao Cong'er is amazing. So, Mr. Ximen is amazing, and Xiao Cong'er is afraid he will lose."
Li Jiaoniang smiled and said, "Who said no one said that Xiao Cong'er is powerful? It's me, I think Xiao Cong'er is better than Mr. Ximen."
Chunya smiled bitterly, "Sister Jiao Niang, I'm talking seriously, not telling jokes. What's the use of being optimistic about you alone? Everyone should be optimistic about you."
"They have never seen Xiao Cong'er's archery skills, so of course they won't cheer. Look, when the game officially starts, they will all turn against each other." Li Jiaoniang said with her sleeves closed and looking forward.
Chunya blinked, "He is really amazing?"
"Go and see if they have eaten it. If they have eaten it, tell them to come and compete." Li Jiaoniang said, "That Ximen Fei is really going to compete with Xiao Cong'er. He didn't say it out and was still eating wine leisurely. He was too much. Do you think he was sure to win?"
Chunya shook her head, it was really possible that she would be sure to win.
Someone brought a chair and asked Li Jiaoniang to sit down. Chunya ran back with a lantern and called for someone to go.
However, before she could walk to the main hall where the dinner party was held, she saw everyone coming.
Xiang Erbao saw her coming and asked, "Why are you the only one? Where is Sister Jiao Niang?"
Chunya said, "Sister Jiao Niang went to the venue in the Zhulin. I heard that Mr. Ximen was going to compete with Xiao Cong'er in archery. She ran to wait for the fun early to watch the fun. I came to call everyone to go together."
Xiang Erbao smiled and said, "We are about to go."
"That's it, let's go together." Chunya walked to Xiang Erbao and followed everyone.
Luo Cheng smiled and said, "Mr. Ximen, it's just a small game, why are you still hiding it? I'm afraid that we will blame you if we know you won the game?"
Ximen Fei reached out and scratched his head, "It's not that I have to hide it. I'm not saying it, everyone was having a happy meal, so I didn't say it. After saying it, everyone was uneasy to eat. After eating, they said, it's not the same?"
He didn't want to alarm everyone, so the competition was over.
Unexpectedly, a cook was too verbal and said it, letting Luo Cheng know that before he finished the wine, he urged him to play soon.
Luo Cheng smiled and said, "Don't worry, even if the gentleman wins the game, we won't say anything. After all, the gentleman is an elder, with superb archery skills and rich experience. It is normal to win the game."
"Hahahaha, that's that's it." Ximen Fei smiled embarrassedly.
He thought to himself that Luo Cheng’s statement was to let him win boldly.
If you win, you won, that's not a trivial matter?
As they spoke, the group arrived at the open space next to the bamboo forest.
Dozens of people who had arrived early saw Ximen Fei and Luo Cheng and others arrive, and everyone greeted him loudly, calling Luo Dong’s family and calling Ximen Fei.
The noisy sound shocked the sparrows in the forest.
Hu Laoqi shouted in a rough voice, "If you want to watch the game, be quieter. If you don't want to watch it, go back to sleep."
Then let’s watch the fun. The winter nights are too long, so it’s uncomfortable to sleep for a long time.
It is rare to have entertainment, and no one leaves, and everyone is obedient and no longer noisy.
Luo Cheng and Zhao Cong walked to Li Jiaoniang, and someone immediately brought a chair.
"Cong'er, come on!" Li Jiaoni made a gesture of clenching his fists and squeezing.
Zhao Cong smiled slightly, "It's just a small game, please amuse your family."
Ximen Fei had already walked to the middle of the venue and spoke loudly about the rules of his competition with Zhao Cong.
Everyone immediately started to talk in a low voice, talking about how Ximen Fei could win.
Hu Zi, who followed, whispered to Zhao Cong, "Xiao Cong'er, you have to work hard, you can't lose."
"Don't worry, I won't lose." Zhao Cong said with a smile.
He stood up and took off his heavy cloak he was wearing.
Huzi helped him hold it.
There was a long-time worker who was doing odd jobs and took a bow and arrow to Zhao Cong to try his hand.
Zhao Cong tried the bowstring and nodded with satisfaction.
Huzi said, "Xiao Cong'er, you won't pick one? Just do it?"
"This one is OK, there is no need to choose it." Zhao Cong looked at the bow and arrow and said.
Some people watching shook their heads, this is an amateur.
You will lose once.
