At the door of the bungalow, Uncle Zhang picked up the beehive and went home to tidy it up. Now he took the bee pupae to drink.

Xue Yuantong struggled to hold the stainless steel basin, "Stew, braise, stir-fry, deep-fry, which one do you choose?"

The five or six kilograms of ribs were enough for several meals. In order to prevent them from getting tired of eating, Xue Yuantong decided to store more than half of them in the refrigerator.

Xue Chuchu didn't make any suggestions. Jiang Ning got the ribs and he has the right to dispose of them.

"Try the fried pork ribs." Jiang Ning suggested.

"Dry two kilograms?"

Xue Yuantong got some ginger, cooking wine, light soy starch, etc., and marinated the ribs first. The process was a bit long and required waiting. The three of them ran to the door and watched the sunset and the clouds rolling in.

I don't know who knocked over the ink pot, and black gradually dyed the sky, slowly swallowing the brilliance of the sun, and finally the colorful clouds on the horizon disappeared.

it's dark.

Xue Yuantong turned on the light at the door, and a bunch of tiny flying insects surrounded the light. She suddenly said:

"It seems that there has been no power outage since Chinese New Year this year. I remember it was outage several times last year."

Xue Chuchu said: "It's not the hottest time yet. In a few days, every household will turn on air conditioners and the power consumption will be great. I'm afraid it's time to stop."

I used to live in a village, and there were frequent power outages in the summer. At that time, Xue Chuchu couldn't study, so she went outside in the dark, listened to her mother and neighbors chatting, and waited for a call together.

Jiang Ning listened to their conversation with no expression. A power outage? It was probably impossible. He lived in Heba. Shao Shuangshuang would arrange everything in his life without him having to explain.

Unless someone deliberately cuts off the wires, only Jiang Ning can do this.

Last time, Shao Shuangshuang planned to connect the urban natural gas to Heba Bungalow, but Jiang Ning didn't let her do it after considering it.

While chatting, a tricycle came back and Uncle Tang from next door arrived home.

Xue Yuantong inquired about the news: "Uncle, haven't Dongdong's family come back?"

Dongdong howled and lost half his life. Before going to the hospital, his lips were purple and looked extremely serious.

Uncle Tang said: "The hospital is pumping water. Alas, the bastard is usually very powerful, but today he dared to provoke a wasp. He will die!"

The neighbor teacher Qian asked: "How much did it cost?"

"Don't mention it. Hundreds of them are gone. I'm afraid there will be a lot more to follow. I feel heartbroken when I see it!"

Teacher Qian lamented: "You can negotiate prices everywhere, but hospitals cannot negotiate prices. You have to pay whatever you are asked to pay!"

Uncle Tang nodded and said sympathetically: "I will buy something tomorrow and go to the hospital to have a look at Dongdong."

When Teacher Qian heard this, he didn't answer.

Dongdong is a naughty kid. He killed several chickens in his family last year. He was so angry that he went to a fat old lady to reason with him and was scolded.

After all, Teacher Qian is a scholar who teaches, how can he resist a country shrew?

To this day, Teacher Qian is still very upset.

Xue Yuantong shouted: "Uncle Tang, your vegetable shed is really good."

After hearing this, Uncle Tang felt very comfortable. In his spare time, he built a shed and grew some vegetables. He had vegetables to eat all year round and didn't need to buy vegetables at all.

"Hey, I built that shed! Not to mention how good it is. The loofah will be ripe in a while, so I'll share it with you."

Xue Yuantong thanked him politely and tilted his head: "But there seems to be something wrong with your shed."

The greenhouse is Uncle Tang's treasure. After hearing this, he didn't care: "What's the problem with the greenhouse? The vegetables grow so tender!"

As he said this, his steps moved. Uncle Tang held the flashlight and got closer.

He jumped back in shock: "I'm so good, where is my shed?"

In the dark night, a few bamboo poles stood alone, with the plastic sheets on them missing.

No matter how well-mannered Uncle Tang was, he was angry at this moment. He quickly came back to ask about the situation.

Xue Yuantong said: "Dongdong ripped off your plastic sheet."

Uncle Tang's face was ashen.

Uncle Zhang laughed loudly: "Lao Tang, will you still watch Dongdong tomorrow?"

Uncle Tang jumped up, and his beard was almost furious: "I'll take a look at it! I'll settle the score when he comes back!"

In anger, Uncle Tang removed the battery from the electric tricycle and made up his mind not to take them home.

…

After the ribs were marinated, Xue Yuantong put on an apron and put the ribs into the frying pan. Chu Chu helped.

Jiang Ning found a bench to sit on and waited for his meal.

Xue Yuantong knew that Jiang Ning had made great achievements today, so he didn't call him.

The ribs were coated in flour and starch and deep-fried. They were sizzling in the oil pan. Xue Yuantong inherited her mother's cooking skills and took it to the next level. She was very good at cooking.

The ribs used are selected ribs, not greasy, and the best ingredients coupled with her technique, a plate of golden-brown ribs on both sides with invincible aroma is completed.

After draining the oil, Xue Yuantong got a handful of sesame seeds and sprinkled them on the crispy surface of the ribs.

Xue Chuchu moved half a melon from home. It was a seedless watermelon. Among melons that cost only a few cents per catty today, the price of this melon was one yuan and a half per catty.

She cut the cold watermelon into pieces, and dropped the large square pieces of red melon flesh into the basin.

Jiang Ning moved the table to the door as usual. In summer, breakfast was usually in the courtyard, and lunch and dinner were moved to the spacious main room.

Dinner is simple yet hearty, with fried pork ribs, iced watermelon, honey lemonade, both meat and vegetables, and easy to eat.

Xue Chuchu sat upright on the bench, forming a sharp contrast with Xue Yuantong, who was not sitting next to him.

While the two of them were eating first, Xue Chuchu bit into a piece of spareribs. The batter on the outside was crispy and crispy, the meat on the inside was extremely tender and tender, and the bones inside were fragrant.

It's much better than eating by herself.

The neighbor Uncle Zhang's family was also having dinner. Uncle Zhang's wife took the children back to her parents' house. He was sitting happily on the stone platform at the door. There was a pot of fried bee pupae on the high bench, and he had some wine, which was very fragrant.

The bee pupa tastes very good, not only crispy, but also a little sweet. Sprinkle it with some seasonings, and it's a great dish to go with wine.

The black-backed wolfdog raised by Uncle Zhang can smell and smell around. However, wild bee pupae are too expensive and difficult to buy if you have money. Uncle Zhang doesn't have enough for himself, so how can he feed the dog?

The black-backed wolfdog turned around a few times, Jiang Ning threw a piece of ribs, and the wolfdog ran away quickly.

Uncle Zhang was cursing and cursing, and Jiang Ning next door was both kind and threatening. He was afraid that one day the wolfdog he had worked so hard to raise would rebel.

Teacher Qian next door put his hands behind his back and said, "Lao Zhang, what are you eating? Does it smell so good?"

Uncle Zhang took a sip of wine and said sullenly: "Have you never eaten fried bee pupae?"

Teacher Qian had indeed never eaten it. He came to pay attention and said deliberately: "What is this? Can it be eaten?"

Uncle Zhang: "Fart, it's delicious. Try two!"

He only pinched two.

Teacher Qian didn't mind that his hands were dirty, so he tasted one and found the delicious aftertaste, and couldn't help but eat the other one.

Uncle Zhang: "How does it taste?"

Teacher Qian: "What can two people taste?"

Uncle Zhang killed pigs and sold pork. He was not stupid. Seeing how delicious his food was, he guessed what he was thinking.

In front of Teacher Qian, they drank and ate happily.

Xue Yuantong threw the bone and drew a beautiful parabola. Before it hit the ground, the black-backed wolfdog jumped up and caught it in its mouth.

"Gee, there's no need to deal with the bones after dinner." Xue Yuantong smiled.

"I think if a dog eats bones, the leftovers are pretty good," she said.

Xue Chuchu: "Yeah, let him go after eating the bones, so we don't have to worry about it, that's pretty good."

"Thanks to the wasps, we can eat ribs." Xue Yuantong remembered who made the contribution.

Xue Yuantong tasted the sweet and sour lemonade: "It's all the fault of the wasps. If Jiang Ning destroyed their nest, they would be honest. Maybe I wouldn't let Jiang Ning attack them."

Xue Chuchu finished eating the melon and said, "If you take someone else's food away, they will definitely chase you and beat you."

After chatting for a while, Xue Yuantong said: "Chuchu, when will you start school?"

She is a student of No. 4 Middle School and has had a full summer vacation. Chu Chu is lucky because she heard that there are very few vacations.

"Me? School starts on Sunday morning." In fact, Xue Chuchu didn't really want to go to class, because he still had to pay tuition fees, which was also a big burden.

"The day after tomorrow." Xue Yuantong said, regretting that Chu Chu could not enjoy the summer vacation with her.

But it doesn't matter, she enjoys it for Chuchu.

"Jiang Ning, what shall we do tomorrow?" In the past, Xue Yuantong's summer vacation was just a matter of muddling through, but now that Jiang Ning is here, things are different. He has wonderful expectations for tomorrow.

Jiang Ning thought for a while and said, "Tomorrow, I'll watch movies and play games at home during the day. I'll take you to something fun in the afternoon."

Xue Yuantong looked expectantly: "What's so fun?"

"You'll find out tomorrow."

"Um, okay."
