Reborn in the fiery age, I am a salted fish in the mountains

Chapter 38 The Embarrassing Marksmanship

On the way back to the cave with Aju.

Dui found a hare hiding in the green grass at the root of the rock wall.

The two dog brothers moved their paws together, one on the left and the other on the right, blocking the rabbit that came out to look for food at the foot of the mountain.

Han Xiaokang loaded the bullet.

Raised the gun to aim, and there was a "bang"!
Didn't hit.

On the contrary, the hare, which was already timid, was so frightened that it jumped up from the grass all at once!

"squeak--"

The hare let out a scream, and it was probably not a good thing to scold.

Don't think that a rabbit can't bark, it will curse at people when you are in a hurry!
In the Bashu dialect, this is called: You can't die if you fight, but you are scared to jump! !

One hit.

Han Xiaokang quickly pulled the bolt, ejected the empty cartridge case, and pushed the bullet in the magazine back into the chamber, "Bang——"

This time it hit the hare.

I saw the hare dragging its hind legs, limping and about to escape.

This. This is absolutely unscientific!

The Type 6.5 Riding Rifle used a [-]mm bullet with a pointed tip. The bullet with such a thick caliber hit a small hare.

That would be equivalent to bombarding wild boars with cannons.

Not to mention smashing its torso to pieces, at least a big hole must be made, right?

Now, it only hurt one leg?

"Ugh-"

In the end, the two tigers took the lead, swishing forward and biting the bruised rabbit into its mouth!
The injured hare was still kicking desperately, Erhu held its neck in its mouth and shook its head vigorously from side to side.

After a few clicks, the rabbit was motionless and mournful.

When Han Xiaokang stepped forward,
When Erhu pulled the hare out of his mouth, a trace of embarrassment flashed across his face: In fact, he didn't hit the rabbit at all with his shot just now.

Instead, the bullets hit the hard stone wall, and countless gravels splashed out, limping one of the rabbit's hind legs.
The two bullets are worth 6 cents 6, and the hare hit is only over 2 catties?

This is still skinny.

No matter how he calculates it, Han Xiaokang feels a little wronged.
But Aju didn't think so.

She clapped her hands and applauded, "Brother Xiaokang, you are so good, you can hit such a small target!"

"Cough cough cough, so-so."

Han Xiaokang asked: "Will you skin the rabbit?"

Aju nodded, and then carried the rabbit to the pool just now.

Han Xiaokang frowned: Can the water in it be used to wash rabbits?
But before Han Xiaokang opened his mouth, Aju had already crossed the pool of spring water and went straight ahead.

On the stone wall in front of this pool of spring water, there is still a little seepage, ticking there.

It turned out that Ah-ju was carrying the rabbit and was planning to wash it there.

Peeling rabbit skin is actually very easy.

Aju used a knife to draw a full circle horizontally along the paws of the rabbit's hind legs.

Then draw along the rabbit's leg from the knife edge to the other hind leg, and wait until the knife edge makes a long cut on both hind legs of the rabbit.

Aju turned the blade.

Another cut was made on the rabbit's belly, and then another cut was made on each of the rabbit's two front legs according to the method of cutting the hind legs just now.

It seems that the shape drawn by Aju is actually the shape of the word "工".

Aju put down the knife,

Pulling the hare's hind legs with one hand, the other hand grabbed the hare's skin from above the hind legs and began to pull it down.

Without much effort, the rabbit skin can be easily peeled off completely.

Skinning a rabbit is actually two different things from killing a pig.

The peeled rabbit skin is intact, and there is no blood on the rabbit. In fact, it doesn't matter whether you wash it or not.

And Aju wanted to take it to the spring to wash it, mainly because when it was disembowelled, there would be a little bit of blood in the hare's abdominal cavity.

Wait until she cleans up the hare.

On the edge of the seeping cliff, there are still some deer ear leeks and wild onions growing.

A-ju picked some by hand, and then went to a slope to cut a moso bamboo, only took the larger section, and brought back a few bamboo tubes.

Can be used for cooking later.

When the two returned to the cave, Aju refused to let Han Xiaokang intervene in the daily life and cooking.

It's all done by her alone.

So Han Xiaokang, who had nothing to do, could only sit on the sack for sleeping and watch Aju cook in boredom.

Her movements are very swift.

Three times, five times, and two times, a small hare was chopped into lumps.

Then stuff the rabbit meat into a bamboo tube, then add salt, pepper, and chili noodles.

Then he pinched the wild shallot with both hands and twisted it hard, and poured some onion juice into the bamboo tube.

Wait until all the condiments are placed.

Aju used a plantain leaf, wrapped it into a ball and stuffed it into the bamboo tube.

Then shake the bamboo tube vigorously with both hands, so that the hare meat inside can be marinated evenly.

A-ju was shaking vigorously there.

The wet clothes on his chest were dangling all the time.

Because the shirt she was wearing was very old, the fabric had been frayed very thin and thin.

During this period, there was no such thing as a thickened hood.

The big girls and young wives in the production team only wear a vest.

Now Aju flickers like this.

Han Xiaokang shook his head while watching: In the future, if the child follows this mother, I am afraid that he will be hungry for nine meals in three days.
Babies in the countryside lack clothing and food, but there is no place to buy milk powder!
It would be nice for the superiors to allocate a little white sugar and brown sugar to breastfeeding babies.

If it is those factory workers in the city, they can also get the purchase quota of 2 cans of malted milk.

However, it is difficult for the majority of production team members to obtain malted milk extract.

There are very few individual families, if they know long-distance drivers who drive big cars, they can still ask them for help.

Then the long-distance driver asked someone else to ask other drivers to use a relay race to help bring back some precious milk powder from Shanghai.

But 99% of families obviously do not meet this condition.

For the newborn children, all their rations had to be produced by the pair of automatic assembly lines.

If the production capacity can't keep up, you can only add some sugar to the rice soup and make do with it for the children.

Therefore during this period,
Many people in the Bashu area are not tall, and the main reason is that they cannot keep up with their nutrition.

So many people are looking for a daughter-in-law at home, and they like to marry someone with a thick waist and a big butt.

In the words of those experienced old women, only this kind of woman is a good daughter-in-law who can give birth and raise children, and the children will not eat and drink less!

Thin and weak women are not very popular in the production team.

Otherwise, on the poster,

Why are all the rural women in the paintings fat-headed, big-faced, and stout?

Only this kind of woman is good and capable!
Not only can earn work points, but also bear children, one woman can do more, what a bargain!

So compared to slim women, everyone still prefers the type of Iron Lady.

A skinny girl with no crops like Aju can't exchange a few bride price for her family.

Aju shook vigorously there.

Han Xiaokang's two eyeballs stared at the other, looking straight ahead
"Brother Xiaokang, what are you looking at me for?" Aju smiled softly, "Is there something wrong with me?"

Han Xiaokang shook his head, "No, very good."

After dinner, there is nothing to do.

Cooking and eating in the wilderness, you don't even need to wash the bowls, just throw the bamboo tubes away after eating.

There was nothing to do all afternoon.

So Han Xiaokang simply lay on the sack, sleeping soundly and peacefully.

just wait till night,
Those bats went out to look for food, so they could enter the dead man's cave again to try their luck.

It's just that I don't know what surprises I can find tonight?
