Chapter 67 The Car from the Brigade
Who gets married without spending money or giving a dowry? Just because she slept with Li Ermazi beforehand, the Li family saved the dowry.
But Aunt Guihua is not so easy to deal with. When it comes to arguing and being unreasonable, Sun Wenwen is no match for her. In the end, Sun Wenwen was scolded to tears and could only accept the “proposal” without a dowry, and had to prepare to marry into the Li family ten days later.
Jiang Li watched this lively scene and felt refreshed. Sun Wenwen was really too miserable, but the more miserable this woman was, the happier Jiang Li was.
Who told her to provoke the wrong person and provoke her? If she hadn’t known Xuan Shu, then the one who was forced to marry Li Ermazi without a penny of dowry would be her.
Mu Jingxun and Bai Zirong both guessed that Sun Wenwen’s incident was probably related to Jiang Li, but they had a good relationship with Jiang Li and wouldn’t say anything. Plus, Sun Wenwen was really annoying, and she deserved her current fate. Anyway, Jiang Li wouldn’t harm anyone for no reason.
Jiang Li continued to go up the mountain in the afternoon, wandered around the mountains, and shot two silly roe deer and a sika deer.
Antler is a good thing, and the venison can be sold later, but she has to keep the antler for herself, because some medicinal herbs used in alchemy need to use antler. This trip was quite fruitful. Jiang Li saw that it was almost time, so she cut down two bamboo poles and went down the mountain.
When Jiang Li returned to the educated youth point, the other educated youths hadn’t come back yet. Jiang Li took a small dagger and began to whittle the bamboo. In a short while, Jiang Li had whittled a large handful of bamboo skewers. Mu Jingxun and Bai Zirong came back and saw Jiang Li whittling bamboo skewers.
Bai Zirong was a curious baby and immediately went over to Jiang Li and asked, “Sister Li, what are you whittling so many bamboo skewers for?” “I’m going to make some delicious food tonight. I’m going to grill some mutton skewers for you to try.
” As soon as he heard that there was something delicious, Bai Zirong’s eyes lit up instantly, and then he sat down next to Jiang Li, “Sister Li, I’ll help you whittle too.” Mu Jingxun followed, “I’ll help too.” But Jiang Li got up and said, “No need, I’ve whittled enough. You guys go wash the mutton first, cut it into small pieces, and we’ll need to skewer the mutton later. Also, go to the vegetable patch and pull out some scallions.
We’ll eat them rolled up in flatbread later, that’s delicious. I’ll go make some flatbread!” After Jiang Li assigned the tasks, Mu Jingxun and Bai Zirong happily went to work. Jiang Li took some flour, mixed some dough, and began to make flatbread. Knowing that Mu Jingxun and Bai Zirong were both very good eaters, Jiang Li made a large amount.
By the time she was done, Mu Jingxun and Bai Zirong were also almost done. Mu Jingxun took the skewered mutton skewers to Jiang Li and said to her, “They’re all skewered, Jiang Zhiqing, do you need to cook rice?” Jiang Li shook her head, “No need, these flatbreads can be the main food, enough to fill our stomachs.
” Mu Jingxun nodded, “Then is there anything else I can do?” Jiang Li said, “Help me build a charcoal fire, I’ll grill the mutton skewers.” Mu Jingxun heard Jiang Li’s instructions and happily went to build a fire. In a short while, Mu Jingxun informed Jiang Li that the charcoal fire was ready. Jiang Li then took the mutton skewers and began to grill them. The cumin powder and chili powder were still from her stock in Beijing.
They couldn’t be bought in the supply and marketing cooperative in this county. Jiang Li sighed, it was still good to be in a big city, this small place had a shortage of many supplies. If she had the chance to go back to Beijing, she would have to stock up on more things in her space. Jiang Li put the mutton skewers on the fire to grill.
As the charcoal fire roasted them, the mutton skewers continuously sizzled and dripped oil. The strong aroma of mutton also wafted out.
This wasn’t the most fragrant part, the most fragrant part was after the mutton was grilled, sprinkled with chili powder and cumin powder, the aroma was so tempting that it made people drool. “Sister Li, it smells so good, how can it be so fragrant.
” Bai Zirong thought that the mutton Jiang Li stewed was already very fragrant, but now he realized that compared to the grilled mutton skewers, it was simply weak.
Jiang Li saw that the mutton skewers were almost grilled, so she took a few skewers and handed them to Bai Zirong, saying to him, “Try the taste.” Bai Zirong took them without hesitation and put them directly into his mouth. Jiang Li also handed a few skewers to Mu Jingxun. Mu Jingxun tasted the flavor and also exclaimed that the taste was really good.
Jiang Li continued to grill some more, and let them eat them rolled up with scallions and flatbread. With the scallions and mutton skewers, the flatbread tasted even better.
Seeing that Jiang Li was responsible for grilling for them to eat, but she didn’t eat herself, Mu Jingxun said, “Jiang Zhiqing, I know how to grill it now, why don’t I grill and you eat some? We can’t keep eating while you work for free.”
Bai Zirong nodded in agreement, “Yes, Sister Li, that’s so embarrassing. You sit down and eat together, let Xun Ge grill.” Jiang Li was a little worried about Mu Jingxun’s grilling skills. Although grilling mutton skewers seemed simple, it was also necessary to control the heat.
If the heat wasn’t controlled well, the grilled mutton skewers would either be too raw or too cooked, neither of which would be delicious.
“It’s okay, you guys eat first, I’m not hungry. I’ll eat after they’re all grilled.
” Mu Jingxun saw that Jiang Li insisted, so he didn’t force her, but he silently picked up a flatbread, rolled up some mutton skewers and handed it to Jiang Li’s mouth, then said, “I’ll roll one for you, you eat while you grill.
” Facing the flatbread handed to her mouth, Jiang Li was stunned for a moment, then quickly opened her mouth and ate it.
Bai Zirong watched silently from the side, why did it feel like Xun Ge and Sister Li were so intimate, like a couple? He thought this in his heart, but he didn’t dare say it out loud, afraid that Mu Jingxun would beat him up.
After all, Xun Ge’s punches were quite painful. Jiang Li quickly finished grilling all the mutton skewers, then sat down to eat. Mu Jingxun and Bai Zirong were both almost full, especially Bai Zirong, his mouth was full of oil.
Jiang Li’s appetite was not big, so it was fine for this guy to eat more. After a delicious dinner, Jiang Li washed up and went to bed to continue practicing, and took out another Foundation Establishment Pill to absorb.
After a night of cultivation, Jiang Li felt that her cultivation had increased again. Although she had been cultivating all night and hadn’t slept, Jiang Li was still energetic, and her overall condition was even better than before she went to sleep.
Mu Jingxun saw that Jiang Li was radiant when she got up today, her face was even more beautiful and delicate than yesterday. Other girls went to the countryside and quickly became haggard, but Jiang Li was completely the opposite, she was becoming more and more beautiful. In this way, Jiang Li spent two more days in the production team.
That afternoon, a car drove into the Victory Production Brigade. Usually, even bicycles were rare in the brigade, let alone cars. Cars were unheard of and unseen.
