Across Ranch Story: Friends of Mineral Town

Chapter 76 Killing the Chicken and Throwing the Rabbit

In the past, there were many people who lived well without knowing that they had a terminal illness. One day, they suddenly found out during a physical examination that they were sick. Within a few days, they became skin and bones and soon died.

But there are also some people who, even when they learned that they had cancer and only had a few months to live, still relaxed and remained positive and optimistic, and as a result, lived for several years.

So, mentality is very important!

"Of course, there are people like Ms. Lilia who suffer from congenital diseases. So for those people, I plan to continue studying medicine in the future and explore solutions to those difficult and complicated diseases." Dortmund said seriously.

Lin Xia: "Dotte, I admire you very much. You always think about the patients. It's amazing!"

Dot blushed: "No, I'm a doctor, of course. But at my age, it's rare to be praised in person like this, I feel really embarrassed! Thank you~"

Lin Xia smiled and said, "What's the big deal? No matter what period of time, when people do good and meaningful things, they should be recognized and praised!"

Dot: "Well, let's encourage each other in the future. If there are any results, please let me know. The world of medicine is great, I hope I can always maintain my curiosity."

"Okay, let's encourage each other!"

After leaving the hospital, Lin Xia came to Bakir's house again. Today was the birthday of plant researcher Bakir. It happened that Lin Xia found new medicinal herbs today and left a Selaginella for him. Bakir was very happy and strongly requested that Lin Xia stay at home for dinner.

Lin Xia: "No, I won't disturb your family's celebration today. Tomorrow, Saturday, I will come to learn cooking from Anna!"

Anna: "You're welcome anytime, Lin Xia!"

After leaving Anna's house, Lin Xia immediately rushed home. The rabbit and the chicken were waiting for her!

I hurried back home and boiled water in a stew pot to scald the chicken feathers, but I steamed the chicken blood before doing so.

He took a bowl, put half a bowl of water in it, added a little salt, brought the pheasant over, wiped its neck cleanly, collected the blood into the bowl and stirred it.

After collecting the chicken blood, let it sit for about half an hour, put it in a pot and steam it for 8 minutes. A bowl of tender chicken blood is ready. Put it in the refrigerator to keep it fresh.

While waiting for the chicken blood, Lin Xia plucked the more beautiful feathers from the pheasant and placed them separately in a storage cabinet. These bright pheasant feathers can be given as gifts or used as decorations in the future.

After the chicken blood is steamed, boil the water again and start scalding and plucking the chicken feathers, cleaning the pheasant thoroughly.

Compared with domestic chicken, pheasant meat is older and tougher. Lin Xia didn't want to make pheasant soup, so she prepared to braising it and stew it in a stew pot for a longer time, striving to achieve the effect of a pressure cooker.

I put in the onion, ginger, garlic, dried chili peppers and other seasonings that I had looted from Huo An, as well as black fungus and bamboo shoots. It's a pity that there were no mushrooms, otherwise the pheasant stewed with mushrooms would be very good!

Suck it~

The chicken needed to be stewed in the pot for some time, and Lin Xia began to prepare the rabbit.

Killing a rabbit is different from killing a chicken. You don't cut the neck. Instead, you have to smash the rabbit to death first, then skin it and cut open its belly.

I remember my mother once recalled that when she and my father had just married, the family was very poor and they didn't have pigs or chickens. The long-haired rabbits they raised at the time were prepared to be sheared and sold.

But there was no meat during the Chinese New Year, so they just ate rabbits. Of course, they never got rich from the rabbit fur.

Although Lin Xia had never seen or eaten a rabbit since she was a child, she had often heard her parents recall the past and was full of curiosity about "throwing rabbits". Today, she finally got her wish.

After going through the inhumane rabbit-beating process, the rabbit died.

He took out the skinning and boning knife that he had bought at a high price and started skinning for the first time.

Lin Xia did it very seriously and carefully, starting from the rabbit's mouth and trying to keep the integrity of the rabbit skin. Maybe because the knife was really easy to use, she was able to handle the rabbit smoothly even though it was her first time.

The pheasant has been cooked today, and the rabbit will be put in the refrigerator to keep it fresh. You can cook it anytime you want to eat it. The rabbit skin cannot be tanned, so put it in the storage cabinet to keep it fresh. You can make it later when you know the method.

Lin Xia scraped another medium-sized fish and prepared to stew it into fish soup, thinking of the green onions floating on the milky white fish soup - it was a pity that there were no tofu and mushrooms, otherwise it would be an even more delicious delicacy!

Clean the fish scales and scrape off the edges and corners. Wash and dry them. Add oil in a frying pan and fry both sides until golden brown. Then add water and ginger slices and cook over high heat. After the water boils, simmer over low heat.

After a while, the kitchen began to be filled with charming fragrance, so nostalgic!

Finally I smelled the familiar scent I hadn't seen for a long time!

It would be perfect if I could cook some rice, but unfortunately I didn’t have any rice, only rice balls from the grocery store.

Just make do with it for now. Once your fields are upgraded next year, you can plant rice immediately and achieve rice freedom.

Lin Xia stewed a whole pot of pheasant and other mountain products. It was definitely not enough to eat it all in one meal, so she divided it into several portions and put them in the refrigerator to keep them fresh. She also kept a bowl of fish soup. Together with the food provided by Dart's store today, she had a very satisfying dinner.

After a sumptuous dinner, Lin Xia came out to digest the food. By the way, she took 20 kilograms of peanuts from the warehouse and put them in the refrigerator at home, which would make it easier to use them when cooking.

Sabala will come out of seclusion tomorrow, well, the upgrade of his bow and arrow will be completed. She plans to bring Sabala a bowl of braised chicken when she goes to get it.

I promised the old man before that I would give him a taste first after I caught prey, but unfortunately I kept putting it off until today!

Back in the house, Lin Xia looked at the remaining kimchi in the refrigerator and gave 10 portions of sweet and sour cucumbers to Kappa, leaving 2 portions for porridge in the morning.

There are 11 pickled cucumbers left. Leave 10 for Kappa and take the other one to Sabara tomorrow.

As for what Kappa said about not coming again, you can ignore it.

Didn’t Kappa say the same thing when he got the incredible fruit after giving away cucumbers 10 times?

Fortunately, Lin Xia did not give up and threw it away after using it. Didn’t she get a new fruit?

This time, I exchanged 10 portions of sweet and sour cucumbers for a lucky fruit. I guess it’s tired of eating it. But it’s okay, we still have pickled cucumbers!

Later you can also smash the cucumber and scramble eggs with cucumber... Try to eat the cucumber in eighteen pieces, hehe!

Look what's left. The sweet and sour radish and pickled radish are gone. They had just been made, and Lin Xia was so excited that she gave them to everyone she met in the town. She also loved to eat them, so the radish was the first to be sold out.

Looking at the peanuts that had just been harvested, Lin Xia couldn't help but feel greedy. The salted peanuts were worth having!
