I am Changsheng in Daqin

Chapter 7
"It should be the celestial beings who were drunk and smashed the white clouds into pieces!"

Li Qing stood at the door of the hall, looking at the flying snowflakes, and couldn't help but think of the poems he had read in his previous life.

"Wow, it's snowing so hard!" Li Yue rushed to the yard excitedly and ran around in the snow.

"Xiaoyue, when the snow stops, I will build a snowman for you."

Li Qing said, grabbing a ball of snow, shaping it into a ball, and making a posture ready to attack.

"Building a snowman is great!"

As soon as Li Yue turned around, Li Qing had already thrown the snowball, hitting Li Yue in the head.

"Oh, you dare to hit me!"

Li Yue also grabbed a ball of snow and fought back at Li Qing.

Li Qing dodged sideways, and the snowball flew directly into the main room, hitting Li Yuanshi right in the face.

"Hey, you little kid, I won't give you any meat later."

"No, I and Sister Haitang have two eagle legs, one each."

Li Yue said, rushed into the main room and approached Haitang who was lighting the fire: "Sister Haitang, is the meat cooked?"

Li Qing jumped in and said, "Xiaoyue, if you don't change my problem, I really won't give you meat to eat."

Li Yuanshi stepped in and said, "You bastard, do you want my mother to change too? My whole village has said this, and I have been saying it for half my life, but I can't change it."

"Mom, I didn't ask you to change it." Li Qing said aggrievedly.

"I don't believe my daughter is living with her grandmother. Just say 'I'. When she grows up, she still can't find her husband's family?"

Li Yuanshi said, caressing Li Yue's pigtails lovingly, and did not forget to reply to Li Qing:
"Before you recovered from the illness, you talked to me. But after you recovered from the illness, you didn't talk like before."

Li Qing smiled awkwardly and wanted to change the subject quickly, but Li Yue grabbed his sleeves, licked his lips and said, "Brother, I want to eat meat."

Li Qing was surprised, thinking it was an auditory hallucination, and asked Li Yue to repeat what he just said.

"Brother, I want to eat meat!"

Li Yue finished speaking one word at a time, pouting her little mouth, and staring straight at the pot with her round eyes, her cuteness was full of spirituality.

"Mom, did you hear that Xiaoyue changed her mind?" Li Qing was shocked and delighted, with a look of disbelief on his face.

Li Yuanshi had nothing to say. In her eyes, there was no difference between me and me.

Li Qing turned to look at Haitang and said with joy:

"You don't know, this girl is very tough-talking. I have tried many methods to get her to change her words before, but all failed. If I had known that a meal of meat would do it, I would have hunted game for her a long time ago, haha!"

Haitang looked at this handsome boy with two dimples in his smile and said with admiration: "Brother Li Qing is really capable!"

"Brother Li Qing?"

Li Qing shook his hand, saying that this title was too troublesome and unpleasant to listen to.

"From now on, I'll call you... Qingge."

After Li Qing finished speaking, he fired a [-]-volt electric eye at Haitang.

Haitang's face turned red and she pretended not to notice. Li Yuanshi on the other side said something that made everyone even more incredible -

"Mom, the water is boiling."

If Li Yue's change of password surprised the Li family and her son, then Haitang's change of password made them overjoyed!
Li Yuanshi was so excited that she didn't know what to do. She wiped her hands on her apron with nowhere to rest, quickly held Haitang's hand and said in a trembling voice: "Good boy, shout again, I still want to hear it."

Haitang smiled in surprise: "Mom!"

"Hey!" Li Yuanshi responded cheerfully, and immediately burst into laughter.

The next second, she was at a loss again and said awkwardly: "Oh, look... I don't even have a gift that I can get."

"I don't want anything. Being able to be with you is already my greatest blessing."

After Haitang finished speaking, he turned around and opened the lid of the pot, picked up the horse spoon and began to skim the blood in the pot.

Li Qing saw it in his eyes and felt sweet in his heart. He never dreamed that Sister Lin could really fall from the sky!

"Haitang, wash the meat and leave the rest to me."

Li Qing said and began to prepare the condiments.

Onions, ginger, garlic, cinnamon, sugar, lard, soy sauce, these condiments are unthinkable luxuries for ordinary people in such disaster years, and they are simply out of reach.

However, this is not a problem for the versatile Li Qing.

Li Qing took a detour yesterday to avoid Master Jiang's eyes and ears, and went to a medicine shop called Baorentang in the east of the city.

He didn't go to get medicine, but made a transaction with the drug store owner——

For medicine shops, eagle eyes and eagle beaks are top-quality medicines. Since the hunters were expelled from the army, such rare items have been difficult to obtain again.

The medicine shop owner was from a well-off family and was happy. Not only did he exchange the ingredients for Li Qing, but he also gave him ten kilograms of sorghum noodles.

There is no good thing in the world without a reason. The reason why the medicine shop owner is so generous is naturally because he hopes that Li Qing will send more good things like this in the future.

As the snow cooled down, Li Qing purposely used Dongguo to stew meat, the purpose of which was to let Li Yuanshi and Li Yue sleep warmly.

Heat oil in a pan.

Add onion, ginger, garlic sugar, and the aroma will fill the room with a tingling sound.

Stir-fry the sugar color and add the eagle meat.

Li Qing wielded the shovel like a sword, and only heard a few blows. Every piece of meat was soaked in rain and dew, and was fried until it was shiny.

When the soy sauce is sprinkled, it is like a splash of ink on the painting, and the bones and flesh are connected like the mountains.

Finally pour the water and start simmering.

Li Qing's operation made the three women behind him stunned.

Li Yuanshi was amazed: "This is the first time I have seen this kind of practice. My son, when did you learn such a skill?"

"Brother, I hope you cook like this every day!" Li Yue clapped her hands excitedly.

Haitang even cast an admiring look: "Brother Qing, you are really good at what you do!"

"What does this mean? If two pounds of wild mountain mushrooms and eagle stewed mushrooms are added, it will be a gluttonous feast. Just thinking about it makes people drool!"

'There are flowers in spring and moon in autumn, cool breeze in summer and snow in winter. It is a good time in the world to hold a beautiful woman and eat delicious food! '

Li Qing couldn't help but have wild thoughts, and he was immersed in the perfect world...

The next second, Li Yue's words brought Li Qing back to reality——

"Brother, did you add salt?"

'Damn, I forgot about the King of Flavors! '

Li Qing quickly grabbed a large piece of salt and threw it into the pot, stirred it with a horse spoon, put the lid back on the pot, and said in a Beijing accent: "Let's work together!"

The snow finally stopped.

From last night to now, it has fallen half a foot deep, and everything in the world seems to be still in this ice and snow glazed world.

Only the Li family courtyard was bustling——

The eagle meat needs to be stewed for a while to fully absorb the flavor.

Li Yuanshi was in charge of lighting the fire, while Li Qing, Haitang and Li Yue were sweeping the snow in the yard.

"Xiaoyue, you and Haitang are responsible for rolling a big snowball. The bigger the better."

"Brother, what are you doing?"

"I'll make the snowman's body."

"Wow, let's build a snowman!"

Li Yue was as excited as a little sparrow, waving her arms and jumping around on the snow.

Li Qing used a shovel to collect the snow in the yard, pile it into a hill, and then cut out the shape of the snowman's body.

At the same time, Li Yue and Haitang rolled a snowball twice the size of a pumpkin in front of Li Qing.

"Brother, is this snowball big enough?"

"Very well, Xiaoyue, go and bring the chair with the missing legs to me."

Li Yue knew that Li Qing planned to step on the chair to move the snowball to the snowman's body.

"Brother, that chair is missing legs, how do you step on it?"

"Can't you just put something on it? Let's just use that chair. If I don't step on it, will I step on you?"

"Annoying!" Li Yuegang was about to move, but Haitang had already brought the wooden pillars and prepared to use them as cushions for the legs of the chair.

Next, embed an iron bead in each of the two small square wooden blocks to serve as the snowman's eyes, and finally insert a small round wooden stick in the middle of the snowball to serve as the snowman's nose.

Wrap the broken blue curtain that was replaced last year around the snowman's neck, and put a swill bucket on top, and a graceful snowman is ready.

Li Qing looked at the masterpiece in front of him and couldn't help but sigh - he never dreamed that one day he would build a snowman of the 21st century in the era of Qin Shihuang!
"Brother, this snowman looks so weird."

"What's wrong?"

"Looks different from us."

"Crap!"

"Children, let's eat!"

Li Yuanshi opened the lid of the pot, and the fragrance filled the courtyard.

meal room.

Li Yue had a steamed bun of sorghum noodles in her mouth, added a piece of meat to the bowl, and rushed out.

She wanted to sit at the door of the main room and eat while watching the snowman.

"It's cold and hot, aren't you afraid of having a stomachache? Come inside." Li Yuanshi scolded and dragged Li Yue in.

It's no wonder that Li Yuanshi is angry. Too many people have died recently, and every household is living in fear. Medicines are so expensive that ordinary people can't afford to get sick.

Haitang picked up a piece of meat and handed it to Li Yuanshi's bowl: "Mom, don't worry, Xiaoyue is so lively and strong, she will be fine."

Li Yuanshi sighed: "This girl has been spoiled by me and is very stubborn. If I don't call her out when the time comes, she will always be confused."

Li Qing picked up the eagle's butt and raised it in front of Li Yue. He smiled and said, "Xiao Yue, this piece of meat is good. Open your mouth."

"Ah..." Xiao Yue opened her mouth wide, waiting for Li Qing to put the meat into her mouth.

Li Qing passed the meat forward, and Li Yue stretched out her neck, took it in her mouth, and began to feast.

"Brother, where is the Eagle? It smells so good!" Li Yue asked while chewing the Eagle's ass.

Li Qing thought for a while: "It should be called... Ying Jian, yes, just Ying Jian."

For Li Yue, it doesn't matter what the tip is, as long as it's delicious: "Mom, I'm going to stew rabbit tomorrow. I want to eat the rabbit tip."

Li Yue's words made the whole family burst into laughter.

The last time the Li family ate meat, before Li Tie was arrested, a neighbor's family died. Li Tie went to help carry the coffin. As a thank you, he also gave a pound of pig head meat...

Time flies, and more than half a year has passed.

Li Yuanshi held the bowl and looked at the isolated snowman outside the window. He couldn't help but hallucinate, as if the snowman was Li Tie struggling in the cold wind.

'I wonder if Brother Tie can have enough to eat?How can you survive such a cold day without cotton-padded clothes? '

I can't help but shed tears when I think about it far away.

Li Qing was good at observing words and expressions, and he immediately understood Li Yuanshi's thoughts.

"Mom, in the next two days, I will continue to inquire about Dad's whereabouts. With good luck and good fortune, Dad will be fine."

Li Yuanshi forced a smile: "Dinner, eat more, today is a good day, let's eat all the meat."

Outside, it snowed again.

In a blink of an eye, the scattered snowflakes have turned into heavy snow.

After dinner.

Li Qing didn't rest for a long time. He came to the iron shop and picked up the work he had missed in the past two days.

Now that I have an extra mouth to eat, I can't slack off anymore.

At this moment, two tall figures appeared in the vast snow.

Li Qing did not look directly at the opponent, but he was sure that they were coming here.
